His words were perfectly watertight, implying that even if neither of the two were selected, it had nothing to do with him, and he wouldn't be held responsible; he would have to accept it himself.

But seeing his confident demeanor, the two men became even more convinced that the information he provided was reliable.

So she pulled him aside and whispered in his ear, seemingly discussing the price.

Shen Xingyan also noticed the situation and tugged at her grandfather's sleeve, saying coquettishly, "Grandpa, Grandpa, can we stay for a day? It's been so long since I've seen anything exciting."

Shen Zhiheng estimated the time, then looked at his granddaughter who also looked eager, and nodded in agreement.

But then, still worried, he added, "Yan'er, don't run around. Just watch the fun and don't get involved, okay?"

Shen Xingyan immediately nodded obediently: "Okay, okay, Yan'er is the most obedient!"

Shen Zhiheng pinched her nose helplessly, disagreeing: "If Mianmian said that, Grandfather might believe it, but if you said it, well, that's another story~"

"Oh, Grandfather, you're so mean! These words are just trying to sow discord between my sister and me. Luckily, my sister and I are very close, so we won't let these words ruin our relationship. Hmph."

After saying that, he hugged Shen Xingmian tightly and rubbed his face against his sister's.

Shen Xingmian felt ticklish from being rubbed by her and couldn't help but giggle. The two girls were playing around and clearly had a very good relationship.

Before long, the three people had agreed on a price. After receiving the money, the young man did not linger and quickly left the inn.

However, he left without any panic, which made the two people think they had been deceived. Instead, they immediately started discussing the "information" they had just received.

Since arriving here, Shen Xingmian has only had contact with her family and has never met such a vibrant and lively young person.

So he kept his eyes following the direction in which the person disappeared, and only when the person was completely gone did he start eating his rice with a little little interest.

Suddenly I really miss the internet from my past life; it was so convenient to gossip and follow the latest gossip.

Moreover, with the entertainment industry around, a big scandal would break out every now and then, making her, a little rascal in the gossip field, incredibly happy.

But after arriving here, more than two months have passed, and apart from gossip about the imperial concubine and her brother, there has been nothing else.

Life is so lonely and boring.

Although I saw many interesting things along the way, it was still not as convenient as modern internet surfing.

She couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the convenience of knowing everything happening in the world without leaving home.

If only there were internet here too. Thinking about it, the internet was just emerging when she was little, but now smartphones are everywhere.

Technological development has been remarkably rapid.

But they have a better foundation there, and more relevant talent, while here...

Huh?

Having stored so much data might just shorten the pace of internet development!

However, it's hard to say whether such rapid development is a good thing or a bad thing for the world.

A slow-paced life may not be so bad, but too rapid development will likely accelerate the process of collapse.

Moreover, aside from providing information, she herself is of no help whatsoever in this regard.

So it's better to let the world go its own way, and if a big problem arises, she should be able to intervene then.

There's no use thinking so much. She's just a child, why worry about her so much?

Here, girls turn fifteen and then it's time for them to be married. Instead of worrying about things so far in the future, they should think about what they'll do three years from now.

As a modern person who has "coming of age at 18" ingrained in her bones, she absolutely cannot accept getting married at the age of 15.

But thinking back to when I was in school and had a puppy love relationship, the age seems to be around the same.

The problem is that their puppy love was purely platonic, while this person is going to marry into the family and have children!

It's terrifying just to think about.

Her body isn't even fully developed yet, and she's already going to be someone's wife and have children...

She couldn't think about it anymore. She still had three years; she was sure she could find a way to save herself.

Moreover, judging from the way her maternal grandfather, father, and mother are, they might not be willing to marry her off. In the end, she will most likely bring back a son-in-law who she likes.

Then there's no problem.

Just hire a handsome guy who has no ambition, and you can support him yourself.

As long as he doesn't cause any trouble or use his own money to support women outside, everything will be fine.

If all else fails, you can raise several yourself. If one doesn't work out, just kick it out and treat another one better, hehe.

No, no!

If I did that, how would I be any different from those cheating scumbags?

It's better to be more devoted in a relationship.

Forget it, just thinking about this kind of thing gives me a headache. I'll just leave it to my future self three years from now.

After the family finished breakfast and paid the bill, they left. However, not long after they went out, they encountered a person in a hurry who bumped into the eldest uncle and also knocked himself down.

If the man hadn't been covering his head and hadn't shown no intention of extorting money, she would have thought that people staged accidents to extort money in ancient times.

However, the person looked extremely dizzy and didn't get up for quite a while.

In the end, Shen Yunqi couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to help him up.

Only after helping him up did Shen Xingmian realize that it was the same young man who had made her and her father watch the commotion for so long that morning.

I thought I wouldn't see him again since he left in such a hurry, but I never expected to run into him like this.

It's quite a coincidence.

The person's state was very different from when they left; back then, they only seemed to be in a hurry, but now they were completely flustered.

Shen Xingmian asked curiously, "Big brother, what happened to you? If you need help, you can tell us and we'll figure something out together."

"I need to go to the clinic, someone's going to die!"

After he finished speaking, he broke free from Shen Yunqi's support and ran forward with unsteady steps.

Upon hearing that someone was going to die, Shen Xingmian, for some reason, immediately thought of the Liu family.

I guess I heard too much about their family these past two days, which is why I immediately made that connection to the past.

She didn't want to get involved, but after walking only a few steps, she saw the boy from before pulling an old doctor along, carrying a medicine box, and hurriedly running past them again.

"Grandpa, why don't we go and take a look? It's hard not to care when someone appears in front of you so many times."

"Father, do you think that older brother seemed like a bad person?"

Luo Qi'an shook his head. He had already felt that the child was quite intelligent in the inn lobby and didn't seem like a bad person.

Unexpectedly, a fatal incident occurred to the other party in such a short time.

"Since Mianmian is curious, let's go take a look."

Shen Zhiheng also wanted to know: how could someone suddenly be dying?
