A knock came at the door.

Shi Xi: "Come in."

What comes in is the time sequence.

"What does my brother want?" Shi Xi locked her phone and placed it face down on the table.

"Come with me to Midsummer's Light Year tomorrow for a banquet," Shi Xu said.

"Oh, but I'm going to Yanjing tomorrow." Shi Xi thought to herself that it was good that she had made the decision early.

Shi Xu frowned slightly, as if he was pondering something.

Shi Xi blinked and said, "Let Ning Yu go with you."

“She has a reserved personality and doesn’t like attending banquets,” Shi Xu rejected Shi Xi’s suggestion.

“Then let Tao Tao go with you. By the way, isn’t Tao Tao home?” Shi Xi remembered that she hadn’t seen Tao Yuxuan since she got home.

Timeline: "She went to keep an eye on the expansion of factories in other places."

Shi Xi never expected that Tao Yuxuan would actually do something worthwhile.

You really can't judge a book by its cover.

"Then you can go by yourself." Shi Xi said without any hesitation.

Shi Xu added, "It's a banquet hosted by the Sheng family. Uncle Sheng kept telling me to take you there."

"Uncle Sheng?" Shi Xi subconsciously thought of how she had knocked off the other man's wig back then.

"Can't you go to Yanjing a day later?" Shi Xu asked.

"You can have Ning Yu go to the Sheng family's banquet with you," Shi Xi said thoughtfully. "Although Ning Yu seems aloof, she doesn't run away from problems. She and Sheng Yan knew each other before, so they should be able to get along well."

Shi Xu stared at Shi Xi for a while.

Shi Xi asked, puzzled, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"I was wondering, you've always been so clever and quick-witted, how could you make such a blunder about your own marriage?" Shi Xu's voice was calm.

"Huh?" Shi Xi didn't react.

Shi Xu said, "Uncle Sheng and Aunt Sheng both favor you. Our two families are well-matched and know each other well. If you marry into the Sheng family, you will definitely be very happy in the future."

Shi Xi now understands the meaning of time sequence.

"Does being well-matched in social status and knowing each other's background guarantee happiness?" Shi Xi lowered her eyes slightly. "There is no emotional foundation between Sheng Yan and me. Even if we were together, we would only resent each other."

At this point, Shi Xu's head started to ache again. "You young people..."

“Isn’t your brother a young man?” Shi Xi retorted. “Besides, your parents introduced you to so many girls who were well-matched with you, but you didn’t marry any of them!”

Chronology: "Don't talk about me."

Shi Xi muttered under her breath, "Only the magistrate is allowed to set fires!"

"Can't you leave yourself a way out?" Shi Xu added, "You're still young. The Sheng family won't pressure you to get married; they'll just want to build a relationship."

"Ah! You mean you want me to hang Sheng Yan up?" Shi Xi asked in surprise.

Shi Xu corrected, "What do you mean 'hanging'? It's just friendly contact."

Shi Xi shook her head. "They all mean the same thing, I disagree."

She finally managed to escape the plot.

I don't want to go back and go through the same storyline again!

Since the timeline explanation didn't work, I had to give up.

“Brother, you can bring Ning Yu along. She and Sheng Yan have a good relationship.” Shi Xi added, “Sheng Yan asked me about Ning Yu before, so it seems like he likes her.”

"Really?" Shi Xu pressed.

Shi Xi nodded immediately.

These two are a match made in heaven!

We absolutely have to be together!!

Shi Xu pondered for a moment and said, "Let me think about it some more."

"What's there to think about? Ning Yu is also part of our family. Logically speaking, that marriage agreement was between Ning Yu and Sheng Yan!" Shi Xi began to fan the flames.
