Ma Chengteng sighed softly, "If what Yueyao has said is true, we must indeed call off this marriage. Canceling the engagement may tarnish our reputation, but it's better than her suffering after the marriage."
Seeing Ma Chengteng's expression soften, Yueyao said, "Uncle, I also expressed my feelings to my cousin-in-law just now. She mentioned that calling off the engagement could tarnish my reputation. Uncle, I understand her concerns, but reputation is not more important than life. Besides, I am only fifteen now, and there is time to find someone suitable." Yueyao knew very well that she absolutely must not bring up her disinterest in marriage to Ma Chengteng at this time. If Ma Chengteng learned that she didn't want to marry at all, canceling the marriage would become even harder.
