“Um, this one is a bit overweight. I don’t like that. And this one has a small mouth; that’s inauspicious. Ooh, this one is blah blah blah... and this one has a bad face. If I like her, I might as well just like a man!”
“Yes, a good thing. You see, as you said, you’re already eighteen—you’re an adult. So, with this being the situation, your father and I have started discussing plans for your marriage. I’ve chosen a few young ladies who I believe would suit you, and your father approves of them, too. All you need to do is see who you like the best, and we’ll arrange for them to marry you!” Shooting a glance at the young maid holding a box beside her, the girl quickly moved to place the box on the table and reveal its contents. Inside, there were about half a dozen scrolls of paintings, each of which contained portraits of girls of that dynasty's marriageable age—all in the prime of their youth.

“But, Mom!” Realising there was no way out, Cang Xingye’s eyes flickered, an idea popping into his mind. {If it’s going to be like this, don’t blame me for going a bit too far, then.}“Mother, you… You know I’m not in good health, so wouldn’t my marriage be a blight for others? What’s more, didn’t we agree to put this matter off for a couple more years?” Cang Xingye eyed the scrolls, his head already throbbing, so much so that he had to rub it to soothe the ache.

Seeing his gloom-struck young master, Sinian chimed in from his side, “Young master, what’s the matter? What’s there to be upset about? Isn’t Madam choosing a partner for you?”“Yes, we did say that. But wasn’t that agreement made when you were fifteen?” Madam Cang countered, “Aren’t you already eighteen right now? That time period has already expired, son.” She immediately destroyed her youngest son’s reasoning.

“So... is that all?” Cang Xingye was feeling proud until the next sentence from his mother almost knocked him out of his seat.“Son, do you like men?!” Cang Xingye couldn't, for the life of him, understand how the mind of that mother of his worked. When did I ever say that? Why the heck is mom zeroing in on this of all things?!

One after the other, Cang Xingye made up nonsensical excuses as he evaluated the six portraits, which all boiled down to him disliking them all.“Yes, a good thing.

God, please have mercy on me!! I don’t want to get married—I don’t! How? Who? Can anyone save me?!!

After their meeting, while Cang Xingye was on his way back to his residence, he sighed and sighed, unable to shake the feeling that he had lifted a stone only to drop the damnable thing on his foot.“Son, do you like men?!” Cang Xingye couldn't, for the life of him, understand how the mind of that mother of his worked.

“Son, it’s alright. Why didn’t you just tell me you liked men? Goodness, I’ve been misunderstanding you for all these years. Oh, I understand now. Mom knows how shy you are.” Madam Cang misunderstood when she saw her son waving his hands.

“Why do you remember it so well, huh?” The defeated Cang Xingye grumbled.

“Mom…” Cang Xingye felt as though he could cry. {She really is my mother... Leaving no means of escape, forcing him to choose, just like a mother would do.}“Come, son, just have a quick look. They’re all good girls. I promise.”

Madam Cang was a very open-minded woman. Having a man as a partner was just fine as well.“But, Mom!” Realising there was no way out, Cang Xingye’s eyes flickered, an idea popping into his mind. If it’s going to be like this, don’t blame me for going a bit too far, then.

“No, mother, I… I…” Cang Xingye still wished to deny it, but he was still conflicted about what he wanted to say.
