Chapter 110: Refusing to Marry Prince Mu

Yu Shiyan sipped his tea, taking elegant sips, and sat facing the man in plain clothes, his presence no less imposing.

The man was muscular and looked to be of a certain age, at least not young. He exuded a sharp aura of someone who had been through many battles, and his brows revealed a resolute look, as if he could see through everything. He possessed an aura of righteousness and was imposing without being angry.

Just as the two remained silent, the green parrot in the gilded cage began to hop around and act strangely: "Yuan Siyin, you don't know what's good for you! You don't know what's good for you!"

She was the only one who had the honor of eating the red bean cakes I made by hand. What an honor! What an honor!

If she wears pale yellow again tomorrow, I'll teach her a lesson, I'll teach her a lesson!

Yuan Jin glared and slammed down his teacup. "It is inappropriate for Prince Mu to visit the General's Mansion so late at night. Please leave."

Is it that Mu Wang wants to marry my daughter?

He's got no muscle on his arms, how can he protect Yin'er? Does he expect Yin'er to protect him instead?

The more Yuan's father thought about it, the more unreliable it seemed, and he pulled a long face, ready to kick them out.

The intelligence report only said that the Seventh Prince was a quiet and patient person, but it didn't say that he was a playboy who indulged in frivolous pursuits and wasted his life.

"Then I'll trouble General Yuan to deliver this parrot to me."

Yu Shiyan cleared his throat to hide his embarrassment and pushed the gold cage towards his father. "I'm heading to the Northern Border tomorrow, so I'm afraid this parrot will have to be returned to your daughter to take care of."

Returned? It was actually given to him by Yin'er?

Yuan's father couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Yin'er had never given him any gifts, yet some brat had gotten there first.

He picked up the gilded cage, intending to throw it out along with the person inside. His large, calloused hand landed on Yu Shiyan's shoulder, applying slight pressure.

"Have two servants take him back to sleep. The servant just said that Yu Shiyan has arrived. I'll go and see him first."

Yuan Siyin handed the sleeping Yuan Fuqing to Zisu on her back and headed straight for the lakeside pavilion, still feeling somewhat uneasy.

But when she saw another figure in the pavilion, she paused for a moment, and instinctively called out, "Father!"

Upon seeing his daughter return, Yuan's father panicked and quickly put his arm around Yu Shiyan's shoulder like a close brother.

If we ignore the fact that Yu Shiyan's head was being held down strangely.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? Even the servants below didn't report it."

When she was two or three steps away from her father, Yuan Siyin stopped restrainedly, her tone full of surprise.

Yuan's father released Yu Shiyan and, facing his daughter who had grown into an increasingly well-behaved and endearing young woman, was at a loss for words. So he took out a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to her.

Yuan Siyin looked closely and was immediately at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Good heavens, isn't this the letter she wrote declaring that she was going to get married?

She thought Si Fangming's actions were outrageous enough, but she never expected her father to actually take it seriously.

Yuan's father's eyes were filled with displeasure, but he only showed it when he turned to look at Yu Shiyan: "Prince Mu, I will not marry him."

Yuan Siyin's eyelids twitched, and she quickly waved her hand and said, "I won't marry, I won't marry. Don't worry, Father. I was just joking. It's all Si Fangming's fault for messing around. Don't listen to his nonsense."

"really?"

"nature!"

Yuan Siyin raised two fingers as if swearing an oath to heaven, but was inexplicably glanced at by Yu Shiyan behind her father.

It wasn't a threatening look, but she suddenly felt a chill on the back of her neck.

Yuan Jin was very satisfied with his daughter's answer, and then, as if he had gained some confidence, he personally escorted Yu Shiyan out of the Yuan residence.
