Father Xi was on the line now, saying, "Just come back here, Xiao Xi. You don’t understand Shiqing. While he may look soft on the outside, he won’t compromise once he has decided on something. He really is that adamant."

"Uncle, Aunty, I understand but I won’t back off until I’ve tried everything I can. Let me give it one more shot!"
