"Mr Qin we came here specially to propose to your daughter to be the wife of my grandson Jingze". Elder Gu said shocking the Qin family mostly Da-Xia. "I know this is so unexpected but please we want your daughter to be part of us?" This time, Jiyeon pleaded "I don't know what to say because I'm speechless" Da-Xia said
"My dear please. Its because we have never seen someone with a good heart like yours and also you have been given a scholarship tobtye biggest school here in Korea" Madam Gu added. "Oh my goodness" Mrs, Qin exclaimed and suddenly the place went silent.
"Ma'am, sir please excuse us for a bit. We have to discus this first" Da-Xia said and left. "Mom, dad this is not what i expected" Da-Xia blurted out as soon as they got to the kitchen "my dear this is a dream come trur. You can now go back to school" Mrs. Qin
"mom stop I can't accept their proposal. I'm grateful for the scholarship but marrying their son who is so arrogant to others no way" Da-Xia disagreed. Mr. Qin and his wife both stared at each other. Tho they don't never want to their daughter's smile to be traded for wealth and so they supported their daughter.
When her parents were about to go tell the Gu families their decision, she shocked them "OK fine but if that mister Arrogant ever tries to bully me, I won't hesitate to beat him back" Da-Xia said and this made her parents chuckle. "My dear are you OK with this?" Mrs. Qin said with worry "Yes mom. I'm fine. There's no need to reject their proposal" Da-Xia said smiling and with that they left.
"Grandpa and Madam Gu. I have decided that I'll accept the proposal but grandpa and aunty if Jingze tries to bully me___" "you will bully him back. You have our full support thank you so much my dear". Jiyeon out of excitement ran to hug Da-Xia. "Thank you Da-Xia, thank you so much" Jiyeon said happily.
"Now for the final touching, Mr. & Mrs. Qin we the Gu family present you a house, a nee shop and a car. We are really appreciative to your daughter for saving my life and that of my son" Elder Gu said shocking the Qin family again who sheared tears of joy and thanked the Gu family "thank you very much sir. We really appreciate"
Mrs. Qin said cheerfully going on her knees "hey, hey Mrs. Qin please no need to. We are families. So stand up OK" Madam Gu said while raising Mrs. Qin up. Soon both families got along and the Qin family offered them with another cookies this time around a unique one.
"Mrs. Qin we will be taking Da-Xia tomorrow. We want the lovely family of three to spend some family bonds together" Madam Gu said smiling "thank you very much ma" Da-Xia said gratefully.
After some time, the Qin family saw off the Gu family from their to the car. "Elder Gu we are really grateful for the gift you gave us" Mr. Qin said appreciatively "ah nah don't mention Yeol. For your daughter to save my son life and that of mine, we are really grateful to her mostly especially you and your wife for raising such a kind hearted girl. Tomorrow morning, when Da-Xia will be moving to the Gu's mansion, you will also be moving to your new house" Elder Gu said
"Take care Elder Gu and Madam Gu. Hope to see you tomorrow" Mr. Qinwaved goodbye. "Grandpa, mom, please can I stay with Da-Xia? Its just that I can't path ways with her" Jiyeon pleaded "OK my dear but don't stress yourself and Da-Xia too. OK" Madam Gu said and with that they left.
"You are really a pampered princess" Da-Xia said smiling while stroking Jiyeon hair "What do you expect I'm just 17" Jiyeon said a baby pout "OK, OK now I have a baby sister to look after" Da-Xia said holding Jiyeon hand and both girls walked into their old shop which they are about to leave.
LATER THAT EVENING (8pm)
The Qin family and Gu young mistress were at home eating dinner. The dinner was so lively with Jiyeon telling them funny things like about how she used her grandpa Italian calligraph pen and wrote on her notes. Soon they were done with their food and were ready to sleep.
"Uncle, aunty thank you for the sumptuous meal it was so delicious" Jiyeon complimented "Oh its nothing my dear. Goodnight girls" Mrs. Qin bided the two girls goodnight. They all went to their respective rooms.
MEANWHILE AT THE GU MANSION
"That Da-Xia girl is really respectful and lovely" Madam Gu said "yes I agree and I think we made the right choice. Welcome honey, welcome dad". Mr. Gu said hugging his wife "thanks my dear".
"Elder Gu, Mr. Gu and Madam Gu young master Jingze and second young master Jingxue are back from Paris" Butler Jung announced "Oh perfect timing" Madam Gu said, standing up from her chair and ran to the door.
Soon the two brothers walked in majestically "good evening grandpa, dad and mom" Jingze greeted giving his mom a peck on her chin. "Mom, dad, grandpa i never want to be the vice president again. Its so stressful and.... stressful" Jingxue complained here and there like a little child
"Oh my poor baby boy. This will make you stronger and wiser" Madam Gu chuckled softly. "Where's Jiyeon" Jingxue asked noticing the absence of his little sister "Oh she's at a friends place" Madam Gu said "really she has a friend now. Wow that's nice" Jingxue who couldn't believe it asked still surprised "That's nice. Goodnight..."
"Young stop right there" Elder Gu cut short Jingze "Jingze you will be going to the marriage bureau tomorrow" Elder Gu siad going straight to the point "and why grandpa if I may ask" "we got you a bride and we are really happy we found her. Jingze you will love..."
" Mom please stop. What kind of a proposal is this? I'm not ready to be tied down to a marriage OK" Jingze politely cut his mom short "If not for that girl will you be able to speak or talk to your father and I? We should be grateful to her. OK. My words are final no room for arguments" Elder Gu said
Left with no choice, Jingze hadto accept his new fate 'and this will be the beginning of your worst nightmare' Jingze mumbled to himself with a wicked smirk...
