Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 943

The Chai family proposed that method because they wanted to settle the problem temporarily and stall for time. Chai Xianglong could divorce Zhou Xiaocheng in a year; if her family caused a ruckus, the Chai family could turn the tables and say that the Zhou family was greedy and wanted their money. After such a long time, it would be even more difficult to obtain any evidence.

Jiang Yao looked at Chen Xuyao. She guessed that Chen Xuyao's sudden appearance had prompted the Chai family to do that due to some reservations. If Chen Xuyao were not in Yuan city, the Chai family would very likely continue to use their original methods to threaten and suppress the Zhou family.

"I can't let her marry that bastard”Chai Xianglong. He is almost thirty years old; he's so much older than her. He is still an old bastard who is worse than a beast! Even if I have to support Second Sister for the rest of my life, I don't want her to go to the Chai family!" Zhou Xiaoguang clenched his fists tightly. "Dad, Mom, if we really send Second Sister to the Chai family, they will very likely kill her. If she were to die, they would no longer be scared that we would sue Chai Xianglong. She would die in that family! The Chai family would have many ways to do it."

"I am not stupid; I won't agree to it!" Mr Zhou said, "Even if they give us a mountain of gold and silver, your mother and I will never agree! She is my daughter”what right does anyone have to torture her?"

Jiang Yao was relieved. She was afraid that the parents would choose to listen to the Chai family's suggestion and agreed to the marriage. Perhaps they thought that it would save their daughter's reputation and that she would have a husband to care for her.

Fortunately, Zhou Xiaocheng's parents were not stupid.

Ah Lu had knocked Taozi unconscious and hid her in his and Big Ke's room; they knew that no one would go into their room.

"Jiang Yao, do you want to go to lunch? I passed by a restaurant just now, and it looked quite special, so I want to try it. Would you like to join us?" Chen Xuyao asked while he was at the door; he did not want to go into the room, so he called out to Jiang Yao from there. However, his eyes fell on Chu Sheng.

Jiang Yao knew what Chen Xuyao meant when he used the word we. She shook her head. "It's so cold outside; I can't be bothered to go out."
