"Ziji, is it convenient for us to talk?"

When Shen Changji saw Xie Qin, his expression was not very good.

He was especially struck by Su Miao's praise of Xie Qin.

"Actually, there's nothing between Miao'er and me. She was just upset with you. Actually, she's quite..."

Before Xie Qin could finish speaking, Shen Changji interrupted him.

"Let's find a teahouse."

"good."

Shen Changji's expression was indifferent. Xie Qin was right; Su Miao had probably said a lot of angry things to him.

He coughed lightly twice, trying to ease the tension.

Xie Qin: "Zi Ji, do you... really want to marry Miao'er?"

Shen Changji gave him a cold look and nodded without hesitation.

"Why?"

Xie Qin blurted it out almost without thinking.

Could it be that the long silence is because it's the first time... for this kind of thing?

Su Miao's standing in his mind far exceeded his expectations of Shen Changji.

Shen Changji handed over the painting without hesitation.

"I've always wanted to marry her."

Xie Qin took the painting and quickly unfolded it.

The eyes above were exactly the same as Su Miao's.

He had never seen the portrait, but he had heard Su Miao say that Shen Changji had someone hidden in his heart.

There's still a portrait of that person in the study.

Therefore, she felt that she was just a substitute for Shen Changji. The reason she had come to this point was because she had moments similar to that person.

But right now... that's not the case.

Xie Qin didn't need to ask Shen Changji; he knew that Su Miao didn't know the portrait was of herself!

This is important news, he has to tell Su Miao!

He wanted Su Miao to know that her position in Shen Changji's heart was different.

Shen Changji looked at Xie Qin, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally asked the question that was on his mind.

Do you really...like her?
