Love You Till the End Chapter 1123 - 1131: What If Your Daughter Doesn’t Like Him?

"Man Ning, you shouldn’t say too much." Zhao Shuya reprimanded her daughter.

"Mom…" Su Manning attempted to speak, but Su Zhenxiong, seated nearby, interjected, "There’s nothing for you here anymore, Man Ning. You should go back to your room."

Truthfully, Su Manning understood perfectly that the matter was already settled. No matter what she said or did now, she likely couldn’t alter the circumstances.

She offered a nod and turned to head upstairs.

Su Zhenxiong and Zhao Shuya engaged in calm conversation for over thirty minutes. During this time, Zhao Shuya offered an apology to her husband, promising they would discuss matters calmly in the future and she would refrain from impulsive actions like the one earlier that day.

Throughout their discussion, Su Zhenxiong remained largely silent, merely stating that another such scene would lead to a divorce.

Zhao Shuya was acutely aware of her current position. Having reached middle age, her figure had long since softened, diminishing her attractiveness. She recognized that she lacked the leverage to secure a man superior to Su Zhenxiong and, after careful consideration, decided to endure the situation.

As long as she maintained her status as the lady of the Su Family, Su Zhenxiong would not openly bring another woman into their home. Any affairs beyond that would merely be superficial, and no other woman could truly threaten her standing within the family.

"Arrange the matchmaking," Su Zhenxiong instructed, his gaze fixed on his cigarette, not looking up.

"Leave it to me, don’t worry. I’ve already been in touch with the Sun Family; they are agreeable to coordinating based on our schedule if we give the go-ahead." Zhao Shuya couldn’t suppress a smile as she spoke, adding, "I believe we should set the date for tomorrow night, the 16th. It’s quite an auspicious day."

Su Zhenxiong responded with a simple hum, signifying his agreement and saying nothing further.

"Oh, and another thing," Zhao Shuya recalled something and quickly added, "You know your daughter’s personality—stubborn as a mule. Getting her to dress presentably for the matchmaking might prove difficult. Old Su, you need to devise a plan for this."

Su Zhenxiong pondered for a moment before replying, "Let the groom’s side come to our residence for a simple meal to meet her. The rest is up to the groom. He’s been married before; he should understand how these things proceed."

"Yes, that sounds like a good approach." Zhao Shuya nodded, then inquired, "What if your daughter dislikes him?"

"She won’t have a choice," Su Zhenxiong stated unequivocally.

"Let’s hope she complies. The Sun Family is quite influential, and we cannot afford to displease them. If this marriage alliance can be secured, it would be truly beneficial."

However, this sentiment wasn't Zhao Shuya's genuine desire. Her true ambition was to see Su Jiuyi wed an elder twenty years her senior, driven by a need for personal vindication.

Initially, Zhao Shuya had opposed Su Manning's engagement to the Song Family, not wishing for her daughter's marriage to be entirely predetermined. But upon learning more about Song Zhike—his handsome appearance, refined demeanor, and good character—she had readily consented.

Still, the engagement of Su Manning had left Zhao Shuya with a lingering resentment. She felt that Su Jiuyi, as the eldest daughter of the Su Family, should have been married off before Su Manning. This sense of inequity had fostered a persistent dislike for Su Jiuyi, leading Zhao Shuya to constantly seek ways to expel her from the Su Family.

Now that a significant opportunity had presented itself, she was determined not to let it slip away. Consequently, she had poured all her efforts into persuading Su Zhenxiong, and ultimately, she succeeded in achieving her objective.
