"Your family again? Why don't you just refuse?" Sun Jingjing asked with a calm face. "Even if they were a little more influential than us, they shouldn't have the power to threaten us."
"That's the case ... The Mu Family somehow managed to seal a partnership with the Burning Lotus Sect a few weeks ago, allowing them to sell the Burning Lotus Sect Pill in their pill market!"
"you should know how popular those pills are in this business. Anyone who has permission to sell it will automatically become one of the largest distributors in the drug market! And because of that, those pills had completely taken over the market! Since it started selling Burning Lotus Pills, our own medicinal business is on the decline! Our revenue has dropped 90% in just a few weeks!"
"And not just with pills! Ever since they became business partners with the Burning Lotus Sect, many of our customers have switched sides to give face to the Mu Family! Almost all of our business is down by 10%! Right now judging, they will really make us bankrupt!"
"Just a few days ago, they even threatened to drive us out of town if we didn't accept their engagement proposal!" sun Ren explained.
"So that's why you're so worried and desperate." Sun Jingjing sighed after realizing the situation.
"If you become Su Yang's concubine, not even the Mu Family would dare to offend him! you like it, don't you?" Sun Ren asked him.
"Yeah .. I don't know about that ..." Sun Jingjing started pretending to be stupid.
"What ?! You are acting very differently than before when you insist on joining his family! Did something happen between you and Su Yang?"
"i thought you could say that." Sun Jingjing nodded with a mysterious smile.
"I don't care what happens, whether you're right or wrong, but if you don't want to marry that fatty from the Mu Family, then you need to apologize to Su Yang and make him accept you!" Sun Ren spoke with a serious expression.
"I will think about it," he said with an indifferent expression, as if he did not care about the Mu Family at all. "If there's nothing else, then I'll go back to the living room with Su Yang and dad."
"K-K-You…! Forgetit! You can go ahead and keep being stubborn! Don't cry to me when you have to marry that fat guy!" Sun Ren stomped on the floor angrily and returned to the living room.
Meanwhile, Sun Quan said to Su Yang after the two women left the room, "Thank you for always looking after our daughter, Senior Su. If he bothers you, let me know and I'll punish him immediately."
"you can throw out the formalities." Su Yang said to her.
"But it's inappropriate for someone as tall as you.." Sun Quan hesitated.
Even if the Sun Family had a lot of influence, their resources were only limited in the business circles in the mortal world. If they were to compare themselves to Su Yang, a genius from the cultivation world, it would be tantamount to comparing a merchant to a prince.
"Why is that inappropriate? Even though we don't have the documents to prove it, and we haven't held the ceremony either, I've already accepted your daughter into my family." Su Yang said to her with a calm expression. "If you want, I can even call you father-in-law, you know?"
Sun Quan looked at Su Yang with a shocked face, looking like a stupid chicken.
"W-What did you just say? Me? Your father-in-law?" Sun Quan's entire body trembled.
Su Yang nodded with an indifferent face.
However, Sun Quan remained standing there in silence with a dazed face even after a few minutes, as if he had turned into a statue.
"Why are you standing there with such a weird face, dad?" Sun Jingjing raised an eyebrow after seeing her strange behavior.
"i…"
Before Sun Quan could speak, Sun Ren pulled him out.
"A-What's up, baby?" he asked her after being dragged out.
"That's our disobedient daughter! She.." Sun Ren proceeded to explain to Sun Quan his conversation with Sun Jingjing, which only further confused Sun Quan.
"Eh…?"
With overwhelmed thoughts, Sun Quan was unable to explain to his wife what Su Yang had told him, so he just stood there and listened to Sun Ren speak in silence.
"By the way, if our daughter is too stubborn to fix her problem with Su Yang, I will do it for her! Even if he hated me afterwards, it was better than giving it to the Mu Family!" Sun Ren spoke with a stern face.
"But.." Before Sun Quan could finish his words to speak, Sun Ren had already left his side and returned to the living room.
"These two women. haaa ..." Sun Quan shook his head with a sigh and returned to the guest room with Sun Ren.
Meanwhile, after his parents left the room, Sun Jingjing explained the situation to Su Yang.
"What do you think, Su Yang? How should we face them? Even though I don't really care about my family's business, I don't want to see the Mu Family bully my family."
"The Mu Family and the Burning Lotus Sect, yes ..." Su Yang remained indifferent, and he continued, "There are many ways we can handle this situation, but I will leave it to you to decide what to do. What do you want to do with the Mu Family?"
"Your family thought they could bully my family and force me to marry their son, so they deserved to die. However, we can't just kill them all.." Sun Jingjing pondered with a serious face.
A moment later, Sun Jingjing's eyes flickered with a ferocious light.
"I know exactly how we should deal with the Mu Family! Give me your ear for a second, Su Yang!" Sun Jingjing chuckled as she explained her plan to him.
After listening to Sun Jingjing's idea, Su Yang burst into laughter. "You're really great, thinking of such an idea."
"Is that not good?" Sun Jingjing showed a worried expression.
"No, it's perfect. Let's do the idea."
"Good!" Sun Jingjing nodded with a smile.
