Chapter 258 Lies

In Wuyou Pavilion, Cui Ruxu watched the investigation about Zheng Xun without saying a word.

Cui Ruxun was the first to lose patience and said, "Sister, with Mr. Zheng's background, my aunt will definitely not agree, let alone my uncle. I think you should..."

Before Cui Ruxun finished speaking, Cui Ruxu whispered, "I like Mr. Zheng as a person. Whether he is a beggar or a rich man, it's all the same to me!"

"Same for you?" Cui Ruxun's eyes widened. "Then do you think it's the same for my uncle and aunt?"

Cui Ruxu bit her lip, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing.

"Sister!" Seeing Cui Ruxu didn't say anything, Cui Ruxun became even more anxious.

Yuan Ziyu stopped Cui Ruxun, who was about to explode, and said, "Second cousin, please let your eldest cousin think about it carefully."

"What is she thinking about?" Cui Ruxun said anxiously, "Look at her, she's actually determined to fall in love with that Zheng Xun. If Zheng Xun was just an ordinary commoner, it would be fine. At most, I can help my eldest sister to ask my uncle and aunt for help. But now look at him, he's just a small-time gangster. My aunt doesn't even like my grandmother's distant nephew, so how could she like him?"

"Axun, I forbid you to say that about Master Zheng!" Cui Ruxu said hurriedly, "That wasn't Master Zheng's fault. If his family hadn't been torn apart and he hadn't been displaced since childhood, how could he have experienced such things? Besides, I think Master Zheng is a very good person. Haven't you all seen him?"

"Hmph, I don't think there's anything good about Zheng Xun. I just think his motives are impure!" Cui Ruxun snorted with a pout.

"Axun!" Cui Ruxu frowned and said, "I don't allow you to say that about him!"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing. You won't get any results from arguing like this. It's better to think about how to solve this problem!" Seeing that the two Cui sisters were about to quarrel, Yuan Ziyu hurried to mediate.

When this was mentioned, Cui Ruxu and Cui Ruxun fell silent. They knew very well that it would be extremely difficult to obtain Tang's consent.

"Second cousin, what should we do? Please give us some advice!" Cui Ruxun was very depressed. Seeing that her elder sister was determined to stick with Master Zheng, it would not be easy to convince her aunt!

After hearing Cui Ruxun's question, Yuan Ziyou sighed. She was only thirteen years old now. Had her second cousin forgotten her age? Logically, she shouldn't understand anything!

There is no other way, we have to take care of this matter, otherwise if it gets out of hand, it may even damage the reputation of the Yuan Mansion.

Yuan Ziyu then asked Cui Ruxu, "Cousin, are you sure that Master Zheng feels the same way as you do?"

"Yeah!" Cui Ruxu nodded slightly when she heard that.

"Cousin, how are you sure?" Yuan Ziyu asked again.

Cui Ruxu blushed: "Anyway, as long as Master Zheng doesn't despise me, I will never leave you!"

"Sister, you really are..." Cui Ruxun didn't know what to say. She had never met a man who made her desperate like this, so she couldn't understand Cui Ruxu's thoughts.

"I think this matter can be taken care of gradually. After all, my cousin isn't even sixteen yet!" Yuan Ziyu pondered for a moment before saying, "If Zheng Xun really loves my cousin and is willing to work hard for her, even if he doesn't become an official, if he can have his own family business, it will probably be easier to talk to my aunt about it."

Cui Ruxun thought about it and said, "It seems that this is the only way!"

"Well, I'll think about it!" Cui Ruxu nodded.

Then, Cui Ruxu looked at Yuan Ziyu with guilt: "Second cousin, I'm so sorry, I've caused you trouble!"

"It's nothing, cousin!" Yuan Ziyu said, "This isn't your fault, but I still think you should confirm what Zheng Xun thinks!"

"I understand!" Cui Ruxu bit her lip and nodded.

After the two Cui sisters left, Yuan Ziyou pondered for a while in the room, then instructed Qingzhi: "If you see your eldest cousin leave the house, come and tell me!"

"yes!"

Sure enough, not long after, Cui Ruxu took Xin'er out of the house.

Yuan Ziyou hurriedly and quietly followed.

Sure enough, Cui Ruxu went to find Zheng Xun.

"Brother Zheng!" Cui Ruxu looked at Zheng Xun, thinking about how to continue.

Yuan Ziyu sighed in the Qiongjiang Pavilion. Her cousin, a woman who had been taught etiquette since childhood, could frequently do things that were contrary to etiquette. It seemed that she really had feelings for Zheng Xun.

"Xu'er, do you have anything to say?" Zheng Xun looked at Cui Ruxu with some confusion.

Cui Ruxu took a deep breath and said, "Brother Zheng, I want to know if you are willing to spend the rest of your life with me."

"Why does Xu'er ask that?" Zheng Xun said in surprise, "I thought Xu'er already knew what I was thinking!"

"So you are willing, right?" Cui Ruxu asked, looking into Zheng Xun's eyes.

"nature!"

"Then...Brother Zheng, have you ever thought about our future?" Cui Ruxu asked nervously.

"In the future?" Zheng Xun was stunned for a moment: "Why would Xu'er ask this question?"

Cui Ruxu's face turned pale when he heard this: "Brother Zheng, have you never thought about this?"

"Haha!" Zheng Xun smiled. "It's just a matter of living in the future. I guess there won't be much difference."

"Is there no difference?" Cui Ruxu frowned slightly and bit her lip.

"Xu'er, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so weird?" Zheng Xun asked with narrowed eyes.

"Brother Zheng!" Cui Ruxu forced a smile. "I still don't know your origins. We have to tell my parents about our affairs. If they ask, I don't know anything except your name. I don't even know your exact age. How can I tell them about you?"

"Oh, so that's the case!" Zheng Xun smiled and said, "Then let me tell you about my past experiences!"

"Um!"

"I'm twenty-one this year. I live in Qingchuan. My family runs an escort agency. I've loved martial arts since I was a child, so my parents had the escort agency's masters teach me. Over the years, I've made some progress!" Zheng Xun said with a smile, "I heard there's a martial arts exam in the capital this August, so I came here to observe it. Who knows, maybe I'll get some enlightenment."

Cui Ruxu lowered her eyes when she heard this: "Brother Zheng, who are your family members?"

"Father, mother and two sisters!" Zheng Xun replied with a smile.

"That...that's great!" Cui Ruxu curled her lips. "Brother Zheng, it's getting late. I'll be heading home first!"

After saying that, he left in a hurry without waiting for Zheng Xun to speak again, leaving Zheng Xun confused.

Yuan Ziyu in the Qiongjiang Pavilion looked at Zheng Xun thoughtfully!

Why did Zheng Xun lie?
