Chapter 10 I will want to know the reason

Pei Yanzhou was not in a hurry to leave. He ordered someone to move a chair and sat next to Shen Yuning.

Not only that, he also picked up the teacup that Shen Yuning had just drunk from on the table and sipped it gently.

The fragrance is refreshing and warms the heart, just like her, it is a top-quality tea.

"That's my cup!" she said.

"I'll know!" he replied.

It was as if everything she had belonged to him, and it was his right to use anything of hers.

After a moment, Pei Yanzhou wanted to get straight to the point and mention the cancellation of the engagement, but when he saw the sweat on Shen Yuning's forehead, he suddenly felt some sympathy.

“Shen Yuning, do you really want to marry me?”

He stared at her beautiful profile and slender body, and was curious about why she was so persistent.

"Yes, I suppose."

At least it used to be.

She raised her head and looked him straight in the eyes. "Is it shameful to want to marry your fiancé?"

Since childhood, Shen Yuning has been instilled with this idea by her family:

"The Pei family has done the Shen family a favor. No matter what the Shen family does, it can never repay the Marquis of Wu'an's kindness!"

"The young man of the Pei family is a man of honor and integrity. He never lingers in prostitutes and only knows how to protect his country. He is a man worthy of trust!"

"Any girl who marries into the Pei family will be blessed."

When she was young, although Shen Yuning had never met Pei Yanzhou, the image he gave her was always positive and majestic.

The young general is a martial arts expert who loves his people like his own children. Who wouldn't admire him?

Later, the emperor issued an edict and he became her fiancé.

Although she was willing, she was also ignorant until that incident happened...

From then on, Pei Yanzhou completely lived in her heart, but unfortunately, he would never know.

There was a hint of moisture in her peach blossom eyes, but she wiped it away stubbornly.

"I didn't say it was shameful, I just..."

Pei Yanzhou stammered, "I just went to see the emperor today!"

He gritted his teeth and said, "The Emperor said that you must go and ask for it in person before he will issue the letter of annulment. So, can you...?"

"Can't!"

Shen Yuning said firmly, “Since the initiative is in my hands, why should I help you and an intruder?”

“Chen Yuning, you…” Pei Yanzhou was extremely angry, “Why are you so unreasonable?”

"How am I unreasonable?" She took a step closer and laughed defiantly. "I have a matchmaker and an engagement, and I have all the reasons and evidence. Marrying General Pei is only natural."

"Ridiculous!" Pei Yanzhou said angrily: "Chen Yuning, you clearly know that I have deep feelings for Yan'er, and you clearly know that I don't like you at all, why do you still cling to me?"

"Yu Ning, a forced melon...is not sweet!"

“Bitter melon is also a melon!”

She was calm and composed, with a bright smile: "Why should I give up the man I've loved for many years to someone else?"

Her affectionate peach blossom eyes looked at Pei Yanzhou deeply, making his face blush.

“Shen Yuning, you…”

You witch!

How could she be so domineering and strong?

A girl, who is not yet married, always talks about love. It is simply... too bold.

Pei Yanzhou was thinking this, when Shen Yuning, who was standing beside him, suddenly walked towards him.

Step by step, until he was forced to the corner of the pavilion.

Pei Yanzhou's heart was beating like a drum, his throat was dry, and he couldn't help biting his lips:

"Shen Yuning, what are you doing? What do you want? I'm your superior!"

His breathing became heavy.

I couldn't help but breathe heavily.

This woman, is she going to kiss me?

Should I push her away?

If I push her away, will it hurt her self-esteem? Will she cry?

Shen Yuning stopped and didn't continue.

Although it seems that he has been in an offensive state all the time, he has actually already lost hope.

Maybe it's time to let go of this relationship.

What I did just now was just to test him.

Pei Yanzhou's heartbeat has been accelerating, "Chen Yuning, stay away from me."

"If you don't agree to cancel the engagement, I'm going to give the position of camp doctor to someone else."

"Shen Yuning, do you hear me? Don't come near me again."

His breathing was uneven and his mouth was dry.

The woman was so close to him and had her hands on his wrists, making it impossible for him to break free.

This... vixen!

"Do you hate me that much?"

The corners of Shen Yuning's mouth curled up in sneer, and her face looked even more charming.

"General Pei, are you trying to use your position to pressure me? Is this considered a military order?"

"Okay." Pei Yanzhou replied in a low voice, his voice unconsciously becoming hoarse.

It was so silent and burning that it was frightening.

He figured it must be the hot weather.

"Why are you restraining me like this when my heart is with someone else?" Pei Yanzhou advised.

"But I don't feel it's bitter!" Shen Yuning laughed again.

Her beautiful eyes curved slightly as she explained word by word:

"It's such a wonderful thing to be able to restrain the man you love."

"We are equals, we are close to each other, we support each other..."

“Shen Yuning, you… don’t know how to be reserved!”

As Pei Yanzhou spoke, his handsome face turned red again.

Rubbing ears? How could she... just say that?

Today she has said unscrupulously that she likes me twice, and even used the word "beloved". It's too straightforward!

Too...shy.

Pei Yanzhou raised his head and said loudly: "I am not as good as you think. There is no need to be so persistent."

He turned around, the corners of his mouth curling up almost imperceptibly.

His joyful mood caused even his slightly curled fingers to tremble slightly.

Ever since he wanted to break off the engagement with her, she has become more and more presumptuous.

This domineering little fox!

"Or you can ask me to agree." Shen Yuning suddenly changed her tone.

"What?"

"Choose someone else! As long as it's not Chu Ruyan, I can fulfill your wish with anyone."

"You're being unreasonable!" Pei Yanzhou said anxiously, "Chen Yuning, you don't want to break off the engagement, so you said that on purpose?"

"You can understand it that way." She admitted generously, still calmly.

"you--"

Pei Yanzhou wanted to continue arguing, but every time he looked into her stunningly beautiful face, he would feel defeated.

His tone slowed down:

“Shen Yuning, there are so many young masters from noble families, why do you insist on holding on to me?”

"If you agree to cancel the engagement, I can also introduce you to other young masters..."

A sharp determination rose in Shen Yuning's eyes, "What should I do? Unfortunately, I only like General Pei, is that not possible?"

Pei Yanzhou: "You..."

The corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. She was so bad, beautiful, and flamboyant.

"I want to know why you like me!" His vanity reached its peak. "Actually, I'm just an ordinary person..."

"It's okay to tell you the answer!"

"Go to Yuequan Temple at 3:30 this afternoon, and I'll tell you. How about that?"

She let go of his hand without any reluctance.

Pei Yanzhou's hand stopped in mid-air, as if he had not yet reacted.

Even he himself was curious. Obviously, his skills were far superior to hers, so why could he be easily restrained by her every time?

Could it be that my martial arts skills have regressed?

"It's a deal! See you at the end of time!"

Pei Yanzhou left in a hurry after saying this, his expression still defiant.

Only when she couldn't see him did he grin with his white teeth and laugh.

Maybe even he himself forgot that he came here to break off the engagement, so how did it turn into a tryst?
