Chapter 78 - Huo YanXiao Is the One That I Want to Marry! (1)
Qin Hai had a good idea in mind . He had never liked Li ManGe .
That little insignificant actress . Her only redeeming quality was her look . Other than that, she has neither status nor reputation . She wouldn’t be of any help to Qin ZiMing when it came to his career .
Besides, he would never allow for an insignificant actress like her to marry into the Qin’s . That’d make them look so bad .

Qin Hai’s words made everyone turn their attention to Nie AnAn .
She seemed to feel uncomfortable under everybody’s gaze . Her fingers, again, twisted her dress lightly .
Father Nie was a little unhappy by now . What Qin Hai had done was put Nie AnAn on the spot .
Plus, they all knew that Qin ZiMing has a girlfriend and wouldn’t be fond of Nie AnAn . If Nie AnAn were to marry him, she’d only be ignored and be on the receiving end of his displeasure .
Right when Father Nie was about to say something, Nie AnAn turned, looked at Qin Hai, and said, “Uncle Qin . When did this betrothal take place and what are the stipulations? I just returned to the Nie’s and mom and dad haven’t had the chance to loop me in yet . “
Qin Hai smiled kindly and said, “Oh, AnAn, let me tell you… . My father and Old Man Nie were such close friends that they’d give their life for each other, which was why there was a betrothal between their younger generation . I had considered having Xiao Yi marry into the Nie’s, but she said she was still young and didn’t want to get married just yet . I noticed that you are quite close to ZiMing, so I thought maybe… . ”

Under the stage, Qin Ziyi was dumbfounded . Hello, dad? Were you having comprehension issues? Or was it a hearing problem?
She had gone on and on because she wanted to marry Nie ChengFeng! How did that turn into she was still young and didn’t want to get married yet?
Qin Ziyi was so anxious that she was giving Qin Hai all sorts of signals . She was short of running up on stage herself to say it out loud .
Qin Hai, on the other hand, was looking at Qin ZiMing when he got there .
Qin ZiMing still has a leisurely smile on him, as though he did not object to what Qin Hai was saying in the very least . He had no intention of declining it .
On the other side, Huo YanXiao just looked calmly at Nie AnAn . With one of his hands inside his pants’ pocket, he wasn’t showing any emotions at all .
Except that his hand inside his pocket had tightened and his chest was heaving up and down from his breathing . He looked like he was about to walk up on stage and say something .
Nonetheless, at that very moment, under every guest’s anticipation, Nie AnAn said, “Uncle Qin, if we must have a betrothal, I am okay with that . ”
Her heart was beating very fast and there was sweat inside her palm that was gripping onto her dress . Even the air felt thin to her at that moment .
She looked over at Huo YanXiao, but before she said anything, Qin Hai, next to her, smiled and said, “Wonderful! I knew it, AnAn, you and ZiMing…”
Yet, before he was able to finish his words, Nie AnAn had interrupted him abruptly .
She took a deep breath . Like a little squirrel who had just eaten a nut of bravery, she said in one breath,” I accept the betrothal, but the one I want to marry is Huo YanXiao!”
As soon as she finished saying that, the dining hall was so quiet that one would be able to hear a pin drop .
The gentle look on Qin Hai’s face from a second ago froze . Under the stage, the sarcastic and bemused look was still lingering on Qin ZiMing . Everything paused like someone had just taken a picture of it all .
Having said that, Nie AnAn’s chest was still heaving up and down . Her entire person was nervous and anxious . Announcing something like that publicly was too exciting . Her temples were still throbbing even now .
Her hands were trembling a little and her legs a bit weak . She had no idea what to do next .
