As for Elder Lee 's true message within her words, all those in attendance were sophisticated individuals - everyone knew what she was trying to say.

Yixing was in no mood to continue the boring exchange; he did not want to witness Suho feel wronged any further, so he decided to end the deal as soon as possible.

"Grandma, about Junmyeon and I, you'll make the decision."

Everyone in the room turned to watch Yixing - questioning eyes wide open, looking at him in disbelief.

What this fellow was thinking, everyone heard it crystal clear - Elder Lee wondered as well at what Yixing wanted to do when he suddenly said that he would let old madam Zhang decide everything.

Old Madam Zhang nodded her head in understanding, delighted deep within her heart. This grandson of hers, who used to be unconcerned about everything, had expressed interest over something today. Hmm, not bad, seems like forcing him to marry a male wife was a good thing after all. "Very well then, since you've agreed grandma will settle everything."

Watching the Lee family's anxious faces, old Madam Zhang slowly conveyed her thoughts, "I'm very pleased with Suho . Yixing seems to be pleased as well. So, let's discuss the details of the marriage." She took another sip of tea before continuing, "Since suho is a boy, the wedding will not be too grand. As for that, I want to tell Suho : my child, it's been hard on you." With an affectionate gaze filled with apologies, she looked at this delicate child.

Suho felted touched. His eyes turned watery as he lowered his face to hide the thankfulness in his eyes. He shook his head lightly without saying a word.

Suho was a person that made others want to pamper, love, and take pity on him. Yixing really wanted to pull him into his embrace, kiss him, comfort him and tell him that he'd be there for everything.

Seeing that Suho was so sensible made old Madam Zhang feel very fond of him. "Although the wedding ceremony will be simple, what's meant to be given to suho by the Zhang family will not be affected. Suho , I trust that your family has already told you about the time limit for this marriage, correct?"

Suho nodded, "Yes Madam Zhang, the duration is one year."

"Hm, about the one-year duration, let's just leave it to you and Yixing to decide."

Old Madam Zhang's words shocked everyone present. "Mum, you mean..." Zhang Guo didn't understand; although questioning her wasn't an appropriate move, it was probably a question that everyone in the room wanted the answer to.

Old Madam Zhang chuckled, "Don't get nervous, I don't mean anything. The marriage involves the two of them, a time limit won't have too much effect on them - it all depends on the individuals. So, there's no need to stick strictly to the rules. Everything should be decided based on their relationship; let them decide for themselves. That is the best way to decide, isn't it?"

Zhang Guo could not guess what the old lady was thinking; back when she was the one who forced Yixing to marry a male wife, she had said that it didn't matter how Yixing would object to it, he must marry that person. She even said that it was a must to fulfill the one-year marriage deal and after that, he could decide on his own if the marriage would continue. But now, she had changed her mind and said that everything would be decided by them? He was really puzzled; he couldn't understand exactly what was going on in her mind.

Zhang Guo was not the only one who was confused; his wife was in the same boat. When old Madam zhang initially coerced Yixing into marrying a man, old Madam zhang made big fuss about it several times. But why did she suddenly decided not to be involved? What exactly was she planning to do?
