"Xiao Zhen, if—I'm just saying if—we do end up together, I promise never to betray my family."
This was Yang Zhongyi's most sincere vow yet.
Before Tao Yanzhen could respond, Tao Chunhe shook his head, "Xiao Zhen, don't humble yourself. Our family doesn't insist you marry into the Yang Family. Dad never agreed to it."
Yang Run Tai, seeing his younger uncle had compromised and that Tao Yanzhen was interested, couldn't let Tao Chunhe mess things up.
"Actually, there's nothing bad about this. You two can interact slowly, and there's no deceit anymore. Besides, you already know each other now.
Isn't that good? You both have someone you like, and since you can't be with them, what's wrong with being together?
Both our families are inclined too. I think it's not bad. You should consider. You can't remain single forever. You might as well settle it now rather than find someone who loves you later and not be able to reciprocate. That would be a real hurt, right?"
