Upon hearing his mother, Seulgi flinched almost instantly as if he was being whiplashed.
"Mom, for your son's survival, don't do it!"
Seulgi had a serious expression on his face. This was actually the first time he showed such a stern look in front of his mother.
However, his mother only frowned when she heard him.
"What does your older cousin's marriage have anything to do with you? Are you sick?" Seulgi's mother smacked him in the head.
Seulgi felt so wronged, but he still didn't want his mother to court death for him.
"Mom, Lisa can choose his own wife. We shouldn't get ourselves involved with his matters."
Seulgi's dad sighed, "We know that... We also don't want to do this. However, the elders are worried that Lisa would end up single forever. You know he's very important in the family and the elders are urging him to continue the bloodline."
"That's right. The elders knew that you're very close to Lisa and they wanted to ask you about what type of girl Lisa wanted to marry. Anyway, he's already old enough to marry and have his own family. It'll be good if we could help him continue the Song family bloodline."
Seulgi saw his parents being so determined to help Lisa get married. Although he knew that they wouldn't be able to force that man to marry any woman they sent to him, he also couldn't stop his parents from doing this.
Besides, even if he did stop them, the elders will surely find another way.
Seulgi sighed and said to his parents, "I know you're worried and want to give him the best, but let me feel things out first. I'll ask Lisa if he wants to marry or not someday. We cannot do these things behind his back when he helped us so much in the past."
Both his father and mother looked at each other and saw each other's embarrassment.
Several years ago, Lisa single handedly helped the Song family up. He took the business that was stolen from them and even made it so that the Song family would become great once more.
Lisa eventually became the most important figure in the Song family. Hence, it wasn't hard to tell why the elders were becoming more anxious nowadays. Nearing the age of thirty, the elders haven't heard of any flings or scandals around him, making them think that maybe he swung the other way.
However, three years ago, there was one rumor that spread around high society. It was that Lisa, who never showed any interest towards women, conversed and even sat together with a woman during the Old Patriarch Manoban's birthday party.
As soon as this rumor was heard by the Song elders, they were injected with hope and motivation. Perhaps, they were wrong about what they were thinking.
But that candle of hope was snuffed before it could burn as the woman in question disappeared and Lisa remained indifferent.
Sighing again, Seulgi's parents could only nod their heads and agree with him.
"Alright, make sure to ask him, alright?"
"Tell him that we will pick the most beautiful and perfect woman he wants. No, he just has to tell us if he likes someone and we will do the rest!"
Seulgi left the mansion. He took the pictures and details that his parents gathered about these ladies and threw them in the backseat. Later, he would throw them out or burn them.
Unlike his parents, Seulgi knew his cousin better than anyone. Lisa never liked anyone managing things for him. The last time that someone did that, they almost couldn't save their business company.
