Kong Mengjie kept her head down, but dared not shed tears. She was afraid to tell the truth to her family now. It was too embarrassing to start.
"You brought him home, does that mean you agreed? Do you not realize being a stepmother is difficult? Do you not know he is much older than you, and when he gets old, you will have to take care of him?" Tian Shulan lamented about Kong Mengjie, frustrated by her decision.
"Just tell me why you're with him," Kong Zhongyou still knew his daughter well. She was far more clever than her three brothers and wouldn't be so easily swayed by small gains.
"Dad, we're already together," Kong Mengjie said with a sob in her voice, revealing the hard-to-confess reason.
"How could you not care for yourself?" Tian Shulan slapped her on the back a few times.
"Did you choose this yourself?"
Kong Mengjie nodded. What could she say now? Could she claim that she had been forced and then repeatedly went back to him, even being cornered by others?
