Old Master Xu was very satisfied. He knew Madam Pei; the Cheng family girl from the capital was quite capable.

Pei Si is an only child, and the Pei family business will be handed over to him in the future. He also doesn't have any messy relatives.

Xie Li will live a very comfortable life after marrying into that family.

Old Master Xu narrowed his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them: "Then let's find a time to make arrangements."

——

Xie Li was unaware that her engagement had already been arranged in a very clear and logical manner.

Old Master Xu's words reminded her, and when she got back, she asked Zhang Ma, "Young Madam, do engagements in wealthy families usually happen very early?"

Otherwise, there would have been no need for Grandpa Xu to make arrangements for her so early.

Zhang Ma had eaten alone with Butler Xu before and was unaware of Old Master Xu's words. Upon hearing this, she casually replied, "Not entirely. But some families have been on good terms for generations and have conflicts of interest, so naturally they hope to settle things as soon as possible to consolidate their respective interests."

"By the way, young lady, you had a set of rules set when you were just born..."

Zhang Ma suddenly realized what was happening, stopped talking, and glanced nervously at Xie Li.

Xie Li was still shocked that city people were just like country folk, getting engaged at such a young age, and didn't notice what Zhang Ma said next.

Seeing Zhang Ma suddenly stop, ponder for a moment, and then bewildered, she exclaimed, "Huh?"

She was betrothed right after she was born?!

Xie Li couldn't help but ask, "Can I deny it?"

The marriage arrangement was completely unrelated to her life goals. She only came back to study!

Aunt Zhang was taken aback. Seeing that Xie Li seemed to be serious, she felt a mix of emotions and said softly, "If you are unwilling, the old man will make the decision for you."

But she was still somewhat hesitant. Xie Li had never met Huo Yuntang, so he could say without any qualms that he did not acknowledge the marriage agreement.

She knew that Ding Huizhu was in contact with the Pei family, clearly intending to betroth Xie Li to them. The Pei family was just a small family in Linjiang City, far inferior to the Huo family, one of the four great powerful families.

Huo Yuntang's character, appearance, and talent are all top-notch among the four wealthy families in Linjiang City. Even though Zhang Ma has a very strong bias towards Xie Li, she still has to admit that Huo Yuntang is the best choice for Xie Li.

Pei Si is far inferior to Huo Yuntang.

She was a little worried, wondering whether she should tell Xie Li about the engagement in detail.

In the end, he sighed and could only wait for Old Master Xie to make arrangements for Xie Li.

——

The engagement did not affect Xie Li.

If the person involved doesn't want to do something, no one can force them, especially since she's still young.

She has something more important to worry about: she really needs to get a haircut!

So, that afternoon, after waking up from her nap, she went straight out the door and left the villa area.

The Xie family's old residence stands in Banshanwan, a long-established villa area in Linjiang City. It is located in the center of the main urban area of ​​Linjiang City, and the bustling city center is just outside the villa area.

Xie Li descended the mountain at lightning speed, his steps steady and swift. By the time Butler Wu in the villa realized what was happening, Xie Li had already reached the foot of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Xie Shiyou was driving to the Xie family home when he saw Xie Li and couldn't help but frown.

Judging from Xie Li's appearance, he came down the mountain alone. Was he still on Tiandu Mountain, relying on his own two legs to walk?

Xie Shiyou thought Xie Li was out of her mind. Why would she give up being a proper young lady and act like a wild man?

He thought about it for a moment. After all, there was only one main road on Banshan Bay. It wouldn't be appropriate for him to pretend he couldn't see it. He still had to do something about it. So he turned the car around and chased after Xie Li's figure.
