Chapter 218 No Negotiation
When Liu Xi made this final statement, Aunt Sun's face changed greatly. She could no longer care about anything else and said in a mournful voice:

"Liu Xi, my aunt and that Aoto Dang really love each other... After my aunt remarries, she will cut off all contact with Xiao Wen. I think... I think the situations you described will not happen..."

Hear the words.

Liu Xi naturally sneered at her self-deceiving appearance. In order to remarry Otto Dang, she completely disregarded the mother-daughter relationship between him and Liu Xiaowen. He was really disappointed with her behavior and sneered:

"Ridiculous! Auntie, are you really so naive as to think that you can rest easy just by cutting off contact with Xiaowen? Even if you cut off contact on the surface, it still cannot change the fact that Xiaowen is your biological daughter. With this relationship, how can the Otto family turn a blind eye and not take advantage of it?
By the way, can my aunt really guarantee that the so-called "mutual love" between Otto Dang and you is not a conspiracy planned against the Liu family?
Or is it that Auntie is actually aware of all this, but is just pretending to be blind to it and is content with it?"

Liu Xi finished speaking.

The fantasy that Aunt Sun had woven for herself suddenly cracked.

Just as Liu Xi said, how could she not have thought about these issues at all?
But it is a common problem for women. Under Otto Dang's initial strong offensive, sweet words, and the false "beauty" he created, she would rather think of the best side of things and ignore that it might be a lie, it might be exploitation, it might be a conspiracy...

Some women are very realistic, but sometimes they will choose to escape from "reality"!
And undoubtedly, Aunt Sun is one of them.

And he is cold-hearted by nature!
The blood ties between him and his daughter, can he just abandon them in the face of the woven "dream"?
This made Liu Xi feel disgusted with this cheap stepmother from the bottom of his heart!
"No, no... He won't..."

Aunt Sun's eyes became dull and she kept mumbling to herself in a dream.

See this situation.

Liu Xi took a deep breath, he was really speechless at this moment!

In his opinion, this woman is really hopeless!
It is true that there must be something hateful about pitiful people...

He has said so much, but he is still deceiving himself? !
But fortunately, he realized that this was just his last escape as he was still unwilling to face the reality!

"Auntie, to be honest, Otto Dang will never marry you. Think about it carefully. Among all the descendants of noble families, take our Liu family for example, have you ever seen a descendant of a noble family marry someone who is not a cultivator?

Even if, as you said, you two love each other and he is willing to marry you, but as the eldest grandson of the second elder of the Otto family, how can he decide the marriage by himself?

What's more, if you remarry, you will be... a second wife!

How could his grandfather, the second elder, agree? !
The more Otto promises you about this matter, the less trustworthy he is!"

In order to make Aunt Sun realize the reality, Liu Xi struck while the iron was hot and said cruelly.

Opposite seat.

After hearing Liu Xi's sharp words, Aunt Sun was stunned for a moment.

Yes, she is not even a cultivator. Even if there are no complicated "factors" involved, how can she be qualified to join the Otto family?

Moreover, she had to admit that she had been married once and had a daughter. If she remarried, she would be a second wife. Otto Dang had vowed to marry her, but now thinking about it carefully, it was not only unrealistic, but it might even be a sarcastic joke in the eyes of most outsiders.
However, her dream was ruthlessly shattered by Liu Xi, and she was only awake for a moment.

After a while, she seemed to be unwilling to give up and opened her mouth slightly towards Liu Xi, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

In fact, deep down in her heart, she already knew all this...

But now, she has even given her body to Otto Dang and is no longer willing to remain calm. She is unwilling to extinguish the glimmer of hope for Otto Dang in her heart no matter what!
Liu Xi slowly stood up from the chair. Seeing Aunt Sun's expression, he didn't plan to continue talking to this woman.

Because he realized a problem.

Often women in this situation are stubborn and unwilling to think about the problem, so no matter how much you say, it will be useless.

Compared to men, women are inherently quite emotional.

It is very difficult to make a woman rational.

Thinking of this, he naturally didn't want to waste any more words with him!

If it's useless, why bother?

He had a better solution...

"Let's stop here today, Auntie. I've said everything I need to say. It's up to you to decide what to think next, but..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Xi's tone was slightly dragged. He glanced at Aunt Sun, whose spirits were getting worse after the conversation, and said word by word:

"What you must understand is that your wish to remarry into the Otto family is non-negotiable! You have to give up even if you don't want to!"

Just say it.

He walked away.

Inside the house, Aunt Sun seemed to have lost all her strength. She looked helpless and slumped in the chair.

……

night.

Alchemist Guild.

Second floor, inside the room.

Liu Xi and his teacher Yan Yong drank tea and chatted idly.

"How's the housework going?"

After chatting for a while, Yan Yong asked casually.

"I have already explained the matter to my aunt, but it seems that she is unwilling to give up, so I plan to change the way to deal with it."

Liu Xi held the steaming teacup in both hands, looked at his reflection in it and said.

Change the way of handling it?
Yan Yong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Since you have an idea, that's good."

After saying that, he took a sip of tea and talked about another matter:
"Pang Fan came to see me this afternoon and specifically discussed the Imperial Capital Alchemist Conference to be held in more than a year. He meant that you must attend as a member of our Hechuan City branch!"

"What does he mean?"

Liu Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and when he saw his teacher, he said:

"So what do you mean, teacher?"

"Haha, of course I hope you will participate. After all, in the art of alchemy, besides practicing hard for a long time, you also need to communicate and learn with others. It is not advisable to work in isolation. I don't ask you to get a dazzling place in the Alchemist Conference, but participating once will always help improve your own alchemy skills.

However, since you came back this time, I have noticed that you have changed a lot and have become more stable. Some things should be decided by you. After all, you are the one attending the Alchemist Conference, and your own opinion is the most important."
