Hearing Ji Xianli call her Rou Rou, Yan Yi Rou really wanted to knead him into a ball and throw him away; he was just too greasy!

She suddenly calmed down after stepping into the elevator.

Although he revealed his real name to her, she was now certain that Ji Xianli had ulterior motives towards her!

After Ji Xianli stepped into the elevator, he looked at her gently and smiled, "It's quite early. Where would you like to go? Would you like to see a movie or go to a museum?"

Yan Yirou shook her head and politely declined: "Thank you for your kindness..."

Before she could finish refusing, Ji Xianli said, "Oh, right, I also thought of a good place that you girls would definitely like."

However, Yan Yirou looked at him and said, "I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to go home."

Ji Xianli was stunned.

Yan Yirou lowered her head and remained silent, wondering how to come clean with her family that she wasn't getting married and wanted to focus on her career!

Ji Xianli, however, assumed she was heartbroken and said, "Rou Rou, I know it's hard for you to let go of a past relationship, but Fourth Young Master is already married. Continuing to harbor a secret crush on him will only cause you more pain. Actually, the fastest way to heal a broken heart is to start a new relationship. Why don't you try dating me?"

Ji Xianli wanted to win over Yan Yirou as soon as possible, so he pursued her in a very straightforward way.

Yan Yirou looked up abruptly, her expression one of utter disbelief: "What?"

She almost forgot that she was a character who had been secretly in love for many years but couldn't have the woman she loved, which turned her into a crazy beauty.

Oh no! Did Shangguan Wu's look just now make her think she had a crush on the Fourth Young Master?

Even if you gave her a hundred times the courage, she still wouldn't want to!

Yan Yirou suddenly panicked.

Ji Xianli thought he had frightened her, so he deliberately lowered his voice, turning it into a deep baritone that young girls liked, and reassured her, "Don't be afraid. Although we've only met a few times, you are the girl I want to marry. I don't mind your past, and I believe we will create a very harmonious family in the future."

Yan Yirou was stunned: "..."

Does he know what he's talking about?

Haha, you don't mind her past? It's as if her past is some terrible thing!

In the book, Yan Yirou's character only begins to turn evil after returning to China, because she cannot accept that the Fourth Young Master married another woman.

However, in the early stages, Yan Yirou was just a gentle and kind young lady who liked the Fourth Young Master.

Who hasn't had a crush on one or two people during their adolescence? Does that mean it's a shameful past?

Yan Yirou increasingly felt that she and Ji Xianli had incompatible values, and she absolutely could not marry him!

Yan Yirou looked at him indifferently: "Mr. Ji, thank you for your kindness, but I really don't like you. Please don't waste your time on me."

These words caused Ji Xianli's expression to change drastically.

Just then, the elevator stopped, and he watched helplessly as Yan Yirou walked out of the restaurant, got into her car, and drove away.

Ji Xianli didn't understand which step made her change her mind, and in the end, she could only conclude that she still had feelings for the Fourth Young Master.

But the Fourth Young Master is married, and his wife is a formidable woman. Will she allow other women to have designs on him?

It seems that he can only give Yan Yirou a strong dose of medicine so that she can completely give up on the Fourth Young Master and accept his marriage proposal!

As soon as Ji Xianli thought of it, he immediately made a phone call to instruct his trusted confidants.

After returning home, Yan Yirou rested for a while before going to the old house to find Madam Yan.

Madam Yan was listening to opera and was in a good mood. When she saw her eldest granddaughter return, she smiled and waved to her.

"grandmother."

Yan Yirou sat down next to her and got straight to the point: "I feel that Ji Xianli and I have different values ​​and are not suitable to be together."

Madam Yan's smiling face instantly fell as she asked, "What do you mean by incompatible values? Doesn't he like you quite a bit?"

Yan Yirou's eyes turned cold; she was now saying that she didn't like it!

“I don’t like him,” she said seriously.

"You!" Old Madam Yan was about to scold him, but remembering the phone call earlier, she softened her tone and said, "I know you still have your eye on that Gu family boy, don't you? But he's already married. Do you really want to break up his family?"

Yan Yirou frowned: "I didn't think that way! Besides, Ji Xianli is also engaged."

Madam Yan waved her hand and said, "It's alright. Xianli said he will dissolve the engagement as soon as possible."

Yan Yirou chuckled insincerely, "Grandma, he broke off the engagement after he met me. Does that mean people won't say I'm a third party who broke up someone else's engagement?"

Seeing that she was still stubborn, Madam Yan scolded her with a stern face: "It's just an engagement, you're not married yet, so it doesn't count as breaking up a marriage. Alright, you don't need to worry about anything else, just wait to get married."

Yan Yirou stood up and walked away, but after a few steps, the resentment in her heart prompted her to turn back and ask, "Is Grandma going to sell me to the Ji family?"

Madam Yan's face suddenly changed color, and she said in a deep voice, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Isn't that so?"

Yan Yirou twitched the corner of her mouth and guessed in a light voice, "Ji Xianli called you and said that he is interested in me and wants to marry me?"

Seeing the old woman's expression change again, Yan Yirou smiled sarcastically: "Hehe, you are my own grandmother. You don't ask me if I like it or not. You just think that as long as someone in the Ji family is willing to take me, that's enough. Even if they find another man to go on blind dates with, it won't affect you. So I have to marry him whether I want to or not, right?"

Madam Yan was so angry that she pointed at her, her hands trembling.

Upon seeing this, the maid, Sister Cheng, quickly stepped forward to help the elderly woman.

Old Madam Yan glared at Yan Yirou and said sternly, "Our Yan family's position is in grave danger. As the daughter of the Yan family, you should shoulder your responsibilities. It's all your parents' fault for spoiling you too much over the years, which has made you so selfish, only thinking about your own well-being and not understanding how to consider the family at all!"

Yan Yirou sneered: "Does considering the family mean sacrificing one's marriage?"

Madam Yan said firmly, "That's right! You are descendants of the Yan family. Only when the Yan family prospers will you prosper."

Yan Yirou frowned and suddenly asked, "If I have a way to preserve the Yan family's status, will I not have to marry Ji Xianli?"

She cannot marry any man from the Ji family.

She didn't want to be used as a tool for arranged marriages.

Yan Yirou made a decision in her heart.

However, Madam Yan did not believe that she had any good ideas at all. If she went to ask that boy from the Gu family for help, she might end up harming the entire Yan family!

The next second, Madam Yan picked up her cane and pressed the button on the dragon head.

Upon seeing this, Yan Yirou turned and ran outside, almost bumping into the butler who came in. She quickly ran out from the side.

From afar, she heard Old Madam Yan instruct, "Send two people to lock the eldest young lady in her room, and do not let her out until she has come to her senses!"

Yan Yirou: "..."

Her eyes turned cold, and she ran even faster.

At the same time, she took out her phone, but unfortunately, she didn't have Shangguan Wu's number in the phone, so she could only call Yu Wan.
