She took in my expression and smiled. "Nanxing, you're surprised that I'm being so direct?"
I nodded honestly.
Ye Qian took a sip of her coffee. "Nanxing, your relationship with Master Qi is good because the two of you are equally matched. Master Qi admires you. But if we're just talking about just family backgrounds, Gu Yan is more suitable for him than you are. However, with Master Qi's status and personality, it is impossible for him to accept this alliance through marriage.
"In the Jing Family, the youngest son doesn't need to inherit the family business and Master Qi never seems he intended to do that either, or else it would turn his brothers even more against him. Therefore, marrying Gu Yan will only worsen his position."
I listened to her analysis with interest. This was my first time hearing another person analyze Jing Tian from an objective perspective.
