Li Changming had been tormented all night, his eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep.
But at dawn, Li Changxing brought him the news that Meizi's family had refused. His heart sank to the depths, his expression utterly dejected.
He had long told himself that Meizi was a good girl and he wasn't worthy of her. But when the news of the rejection actually came, he found it unbearable. It turned out he had secretly hoped she would say yes.
Seeing his lost and bewildered look, Li Changxing felt a pang of sadness as well.
He had originally planned to tell him last night, but then he thought it was better to let him have one more night of hope. By dawn, he thought it was better to tell him early to spare him the torment. And now, seeing Li Changming in this state, he regretted telling him so soon.
For a man of Li Changming's age, this wasn't the first time a marriage proposal had been rejected.
But this time was different!
