"Mr. and Mrs. Xie, Third Sister-in-law, I've always wanted to pay you a visit. I am one hundred percent serious about Xiaozi. We've been dating with the intention of getting married. As for my Zhou family, we truly hold no concern for family doors or lineage. If you don't believe me, I can invite my elders to come right away to discuss the wedding proceedings for Xiaozi and me."
Zhou Zhenghui finished speaking solemnly and then gazed at Xie Jingzi with focused affection.
Xie Jingzi's face turned red with embarrassment, stealing glances at her parents. Seeing that her mother's expression was still calm but her father's face turned pale green, it was clear he was displeased, and she immediately felt anxious.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her third sister-in-law calmly pick up her cup of red tea, take a gentle sip, and her demeanor appeared peaceful, and the strong warmth in her hands gradually steadied her somewhat chaotic breathing.
