Chapter 2 I Can Only Be the One Who Gives Up
In the front yard of the Marquis's mansion, the flower hall was bustling with activity.

From afar, one could see everyone talking and laughing. Outside the hall, the younger generation gathered around Qin Yan, the prince of the Marquis's Mansion, and He Yan, the prince of the Duke of Yan. Qin He was especially pretty and dignified, and was very much loved.

Almost all the children from the several families who had gifts were there, and they were all looking at the things He Yan gave to Qin He.

"Level 2 Monster Crystal? It's good for cultivating immortals."

"I like agate and jade, they look good as head ornaments."

"Yes, I like jade."

Women like jewelry, while men prefer crystals used for cultivating immortals.

No one paid attention to Qin Bi's arrival. A cousin greeted Qin Bi and everyone continued to chat and laugh. He Yan looked over and saw that the man was handsome and noble, and the brocade robe made him look even more noble. He just glanced at him indifferently.

Qin He talked to He Yan: "I also want to kill monsters."

He Yan turned around and continued chatting with Qin He about the monster just now.

Qin Bi immediately felt her status in the Marquis' Mansion, but she didn't care. If the marriage failed, she could go back with her third aunt. Her younger brothers and sisters had grown up and were not familiar or close to her.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Bi walked to the main seat surrounded by everyone.

"Why are you here just now?" Qin Yan saw Qin Bi and smiled, "The Prince of Yan has been here for quite a while. He brought gifts for the younger generations in the family. Has your gift been delivered to you?!"

Qin Yan is the eldest son of the Marquis's Mansion and the eldest son of the first wife. He has absolute weight among the younger generation in the Marquis's Mansion.

Qin Bi smiled to show his respect: "A box of books."

Qin Bi didn't dare to act rashly. She took the opportunity to look at the gift tray on the table and glanced at He Yan: "Is this for Qin He? Monster crystals, agate stones, and jade are not cheap things. Prince, are you here today to give gifts for your marriage? In fact, you don't have to give me anything. It's just a box of books. I won't touch it. You can take it back."

As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Yan stopped smiling, and Qin Bi was worrying about He Yan giving Qin He gifts.

Second wife Qin He's younger sister was not happy and stood up and said, "What do you mean? The gift that Prince He gave to my sister is very valuable. Are you jealous? It was given openly. Why do you need to say sour words here?"

The man from the second room was angry and spoke loudly. Everyone stopped talking and laughing and their faces changed.

"What can I say?" The Second House was not happy, and Qin Bi could not back down. She was in the right, so she had to make it clear. She said to He Yan, "If the prince wants to get married and go through with the ceremony, then take back the things you gave away."

He Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's talk when we get back."

He was protecting Qin He and was worried that it would damage Qin He's reputation. Qin Bi felt very disappointed.

After trying it out, it's not what Qin Bi wants.

The Qin family's sons wanted to speak, but Qin He got angry and pulled her sister back, saying, "What's the big deal? It's not worth it for my cousin to make such a fuss. I don't want the things anymore, so take them back, my son."

"Why don't you want it?" Qin He's sister said, "It was given by the prince, what does it have to do with her?"

In fact, it is related. He Yan is Qin Bi's fiancé and they are currently discussing getting married.

However, it was not important. Apparently, the entire Marquisate did not take Qin Bi's marriage seriously. Otherwise, the second wife's daughter would not have said that He Yan and Qin Bi had a relationship. He Yan's attitude towards Qin He gave the second wife confidence.

Qin Bi looked at He Yan, waiting for him to speak.

Qin He held her younger sister, her eyelids drooped, and no one knew what she was thinking.

He Yan calmly sat down and poured tea. He drank a sip of tea, then looked at Qin Bi with a sharp look in his eyes. His tone was calm, but it was oppressive and contemptuous: "Compared with you and Qin He? You were engaged, but Qin He only has me."

These words were very poisonous, and Qin Bi was stunned for a moment.

The legitimate daughter of the second house was satisfied and gave Qin Bi a smug look. The prince of the Marquisate, Qin Yan, sighed and looked at the concubine of the fourth house with concern. He Yan's words were hurtful. It would be good if they could talk it out later. Otherwise, they would still have a knot in their hearts after getting married, and they might not get along well with each other.

The children from each room looked at each other, as if they had known this would happen.

He Yan and Qin He were originally a couple. It had not been easy for Qin He to wait for the Prince of Yan for so many years. It was pitiful. If it weren't for her fate of being unlucky in marriage, Qin Bi, with her status, would never have been able to marry He Yan.

The brothers in the Marquis' Mansion couldn't stand seeing Qin Bi's confused look and shifted their gazes.

Qin Bi's heart ached. It turned out that this was how she was in He Yan's heart. She had been engaged, but it was messed up by two powerful ministers and princes. Don't ask Qin Bi how she knew it, it was them who messed it up.

She had never found a marriage, and now He Yan was using this to slap her in the face. The knot in her heart could no longer be suppressed.

Qin Bi's eyes were red and her eye sockets were swollen and painful, but no tears fell. She was no longer angry, and she seemed to be calm as if the dust had settled. Qin He's time travel was too successful, and she couldn't do it.

"You dislike the fact that I'm engaged." Qin Bi sneered.

Didn't He Yan know that she was engaged? He Yan knew it from the beginning. Qin Bi felt sorry for him for marrying her even though he despised her engagement. If he was not satisfied, he shouldn't force it.

"Let's cancel the engagement. You can marry whoever you like." Qin Bi felt uncomfortable.

"Qin Bi." Qin Yan stopped her from saying something that could not be taken back.

Qin Bi and He Yan getting married is the best choice, which is good for the Marquis' Mansion and for everyone.

Qin Bi can only be the one who gives up.

Qin Bi understood everything at this moment, but she didn't want to follow the arrangements of the Marquis' Mansion and the Duke's Mansion.

Qin Lang, the third son of the family, had the best relationship with Qin Bi. He felt sorry for her and pulled her aside: "Stop talking and go back to your yard."

"Are we just going to let Qin He, who ruined our second branch, go like this?" The girl was a little unwilling.

"Have some shame." Qin Bi cursed.

The second wife's daughter was furious.

He Yan's face changed, he looked at Qin Bi, and simply told her directly: "After you and I get married, I will marry Qin He. It's not easy for her to wait for me for so many years. I plan to make her my co-wife."

Qin Bi collapsed and was in a trance.

It has been like this for so many years. She would rather die than endure He Yan's bullying. Qin Bi couldn't suppress her anger, but she couldn't afford to offend the powerful official, and the Marquis' Mansion would not allow her to make trouble.

She broke down, tears welling up in her eyes, and she looked at He Yan hatefully.

He Yan was not afraid. He looked over and saw the Qin family member's face change. He now really sympathized with the concubine's daughter from the fourth room. He Yan's marriage to her would ruin his fate of marrying his wife.

When the Prince of Yan is no longer unable to marry, he will immediately marry Qin He.

The eldest daughter of the second wife was secretly delighted and pulled Qin He towards her with full admiration. She thought that only her sister Qin He could be so valued by the prince.

Qin Lang was unhappy and opened his mouth to speak, but Qin Bi held Qin Lang back. Only this third cousin was on her side. How could she let her cousin ruin his future for her? Qin Lang and Qin Bi looked at each other.

Qin Bi shook her head and Qin Lang became discouraged.

Qin Yan, the eldest son of the fourth house, felt a pain in his face and walked up to Qin Bi: "I'll take you back."

After hearing what her elder brother said, Qin Bi couldn't hold back any longer and broke down crying, but few people cared whether she cried or not. She couldn't cry here, so Qin Bi left quickly.
