After the family meeting of the Chen Family, discussions about Liang Tian did not cease. Chen Xue, having heard that the family’s attitude towards her relationship with Liang Tian had softened, decided to take the initiative to express her feelings to the elders once more.
Dressed meticulously and feeling both anxious and resolute, Chen Xue arrived at the conference hall where the elders often gathered. At that moment, several core elders were seated together, discussing subsequent matters. When they saw Chen Xue enter, all eyes turned to her.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Xue mustered her courage and said, “Grandfather, esteemed elders, I know you just held a meeting to discuss my relationship with Liang Tian. I am here today to reaffirm my determination: I will marry no one but Liang Tian.”
Chen Xue's second uncle, Chen Zhen Guo, frowned and spoke first, “Xue'er, why are you still being so headstrong? The family is considering this matter very seriously; you must not act recklessly. Liang Tian’s background remains a potential risk. You cannot disregard the family's interests for a moment of emotional impulse.”
Chen Xue lifted her head and met her uncle's gaze without flinching. “Uncle, this is not a momentary whim. Liang Tian and I have been through so much together; I understand his character. Although he does not come from a prominent family, he is capable and responsible, and he is sincere towards me. I believe he will not bring any harm to the Chen Family; rather, he will be an asset.”
Old Master Chen furrowed his brow and said earnestly, “Xue'er, we understand your feelings for Liang Tian. However, family matters are not as simple as you think. We must consider various factors; we cannot risk the entire family for your personal emotions.”
Tears shimmered in Chen Xue's eyes, but her tone remained firm. “Grandfather, I know the family has its considerations. But isn’t my happiness important? I do not want to marry someone I do not love just for the sake of family interests. Liang Tian has been working hard; his achievements in business and the support he has gained in the community are evident to all. He is someone worthy of my lifelong commitment.”
Chen Yuxuan chimed in from the side to support Chen Xue: “Grandfather, Uncle, I think Xue'er makes a valid point. Liang Tian is indeed a rare talent; perhaps we should give them another chance.”
Chen Zhen Guo shot a glare at Chen Yuxuan and retorted, “Yuxuan, don’t stir up trouble here. You do not understand Liang Tian; his connections are complex and intertwined. Who knows what his true intentions are?”
Chen Xue became agitated, raising her voice slightly: “Uncle, why do you always hold such prejudice against Liang Tian? You have never truly interacted with him; you cannot jump to conclusions. I love Liang Tian; this is my choice, and I hope the family can respect it.”
Infuriated by Chen Xue’s attitude, Chen Zhen Guo slammed his hand on the table and stood up: “Chen Xue, you are being outrageous! Do not forget your identity; you are the daughter of the Chen Family. Your marriage concerns the rise and fall of our family. How can you be so reckless as to argue with the elders over an outsider?”
The atmosphere in the conference hall instantly became tense. Tears streamed down Chen Xue's face as she stood her ground defiantly. Old Master Chen looked at his granddaughter's unwavering stance with a mix of helplessness and pain in his heart. He waved his hand to signal Chen Zhen Guo to sit down and slowly said, “Xue'er, please calm down for a moment. We understand your determination, but family decisions are not easily changed. Give us some time; we will reconsider this matter thoroughly.”
Chen Xue knew that it would be difficult to persuade the elders of her family in such a short time. She wiped her tears and said, "Grandfather, esteemed elders, I hope you can seriously consider my feelings. I truly love Liang Tian, and I don't want to lose him." After speaking, Chen Xue turned and walked out of the assembly hall, leaving the elders with solemn expressions.
This intense argument further highlighted the conflict between Chen Xue and her family, making the future of her relationship with Liang Tian even more uncertain. At that moment, Liang Tian was unaware of the fierce confrontation Chen Xue had with her family for their love. Nevertheless, Chen Xue was determined to persist until her family recognized her feelings for Liang Tian.
