章節 52: Does something in my heart

"If I get married to you, do you know what will be the biggest obstacle in my path?" Jia Li questioned Xianwu.

"Throw some light because I don't know," Xianwu said.

"Your father is my enemy. I cannot risk getting involved with you," Jia Li replied. "Your father is supporting the Grand Empress Dowager and if we both get married, then it will be easier for him to have an upper hand on us," she elaborated.

Xianwu drew his eyebrows close. "You think I'll listen to my father," he said.

"Of course. Your actions will be influenced by him," Jia Li answered.

Xianwu countered, "You're mistaken. I'm the sole dissenter in my family. I've never earned my father's approval on anything neither I made him proud. His alliance with the Grand Empress Dowager has dual motives: to secure a prestigious position for me and strip you of the Crown Princess title. Do you believe that if you choose Jin Fengming, you can contend with my father?"
