Chapter 42: Chapter 043 I Want to Marry Qinghe_1

In recent days, the idle chatter in the village hadn't stopped, and Li Qinghe dared not even step out of her home; even Li Cheng, when he went out, was pointed at and murmured about.

But Li Cheng felt sorry for his sister and ultimately couldn't bring himself to scold her.

"Qinghe, it's time to eat. Just take a bite. If you keep this up, your health won't be able to bear it."

Li Cheng cajoled her earnestly, as she had not been willing to speak for days and refused to eat. This silent Qinghe filled Li Cheng with heartache.

Just when he thought she would remain silent again, Qinghe suddenly spoke, "Brother, would the Zhao family still want me?"

Li Cheng jumped, scarcely believing his ears, "What?"

Li Qinghe met Li Cheng's gaze, "Brother, I'll listen to you and marry into the Zhao family."
