"Haha..." Rong Yubai couldn't help laughing, "Chaoxi tasted each one, and the ones in her bag were the sweetest. The ones here..."
He held up the bag in his hand. "None of them are sweet. She doesn't like them."
"Hehe..." Rong Chaoxi ran to Minister Jiang and his wife, "Uncle and aunt, have some. Chaoxi has tried it. It's so sweet."
Then he ran to Jiang Lingyu and said, "Brother-in-law, eat quickly. Chaoxi picked it specially for you."
"Thank you, Chaoxi."
With the change of Rong Chaoxi, the atmosphere returned to a harmonious and cheerful one.
Mrs. Jiang went to arrange dinner, while Minister Jiang took others to visit the mansion.
In the middle of the journey, Jiang Xinran gave Rong Chaoxi a very important task.
When they arrived at the garden, Jiang Xinran gave Chaoxi a look.
The little guy nodded heavily.
"Big sister, Chaoxi wants that Huahua."
Then he took Rong Xuqing and took her to the other side of the garden.
On Jiang Lingyu's side,
"Brother, come with me."
"Where are you going?" Jiang Lingyu asked, looking at the direction Rong Xuqing left.
"Stop looking. What's the point of just looking? Follow me." Jiang Xinran said impatiently.
…
"Chaoxi, where are we going?"
"You'll find out later."
The little guy took the person to the pavilion in the middle of the lake and said, "Big sister, don't move here. I'll go get a pear."
“???”
After Rong Chaoxi ran away, the two siblings came in from another door.
"Brother..." Jiang Xinran raised his head and motioned him to look over.
"See? Go over there. If you have anything to say, just say it clearly and stop whining. If you don't say it now, you'll just have to wait for Xu Qing to marry you unwillingly!"
"If Xu Qing is unwilling, I will ask His Majesty to revoke the decree..."
"Are you sick?" Jiang Xinran jumped up and slapped him on the head. "Your relationship has finally started to change, and you want to take it back!"
"Are you still my brave and courageous big brother? Are you giving up without even trying?"
"But last time..." Jiang Lingyu said gloomily, "I touched her head like we did when we were kids, and she clearly didn't like it."
"How is that possible?" Jiang Xinran was clearly unconvinced. "If she hated you, would she let you rub her head?"
"Although... Xu Qing may not have that kind of feelings for you right now, she can easily fall in love with someone. As long as you open her heart a little, she will amplify those feelings on her own."
"Go express your feelings to her first. Your relationship has become strange now. You have nothing to lose anyway. Don't waste the outfit I gave you today!"
Jiang Xinran pushed the person forward with force.
"Really?! This family can't be built without me!?"
…
"Xu Qing."
Jiang Lingyu arrived at the pavilion in the middle of the lake. His heartbeat soared and his fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves. He had never been so nervous in his life.
Hearing the voice, Rong Xuqing turned around, raised his head and looked into his slightly flustered eyes.
"Brother Jiang."
Her eyebrows curved and her smile became much more sincere, not as forced as before.
"I……"
"Brother Jiang." He just opened his mouth, but Rong Xuqing interrupted him.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood today and I made things difficult for you."
"Need not……"
"I'm not unhappy with the marriage, it just happened so suddenly that I don't know how to deal with it."
"My father always said that I must find someone who shares my heart and soul, so that the rest of my life will not be wasted."
"I've always treated you as my brother. With this sudden change of identity, I don't know how to face you..."
“…”
Rong Xuqing spoke out all his worries, and Jiang Lingyu had no chance to get a word in.
"Brother Jiang, I may not have any romantic feelings for you right now, but I am willing to marry you, really. Give me some time, and I will definitely get myself back in shape in a few days."
"From now on, I will treat you as my fiancé. You are a very good person, and I like you very much. Soon, I will definitely fall in love with you... Well -"
Suddenly realizing what he was saying, Rong Xuqing lowered his head abruptly, his face flushed red in an instant, and his ears seemed to be bleeding.
Looking at the red and delicate earlobe, Jiang Lingyu couldn't help but smile at himself.
As a woman, she dares to speak her mind boldly. Jiang Lingyu, why are you so cowardly?
He took a step forward, slowly approached, and for the first time boldly reached out and touched Rong Xuqing's cheek.
Gently lifted her blushing face.
Rong Xuqing's clear eyes, shrouded in mist, pierced his heart directly.
He could no longer restrain himself and told her the dirty thoughts that had taken root in his heart.
"Xu Qing, I love you."
"Two years ago, I developed feelings for you that I shouldn't have. It was my fault for being so filthy and reckless. Every time I pretended to be Xinran, I would join your gatherings just to get a glimpse of you."
Rong Xuqing and Jiang Xinran met when they were four or five years old, became close friends, and often visited each other's homes.
After she turned fourteen, she was about to become an adult, and in order to avoid suspicion, she stopped going to the Jiang family.
Therefore, it was difficult for Jiang Lingyu to see her again.
He often used the excuse of protecting his sister to protect them when they were together traveling and enjoying the scenery, in order to satisfy his despicable thoughts.
Hearing this, Rong Xuqing widened his eyes slightly.
Although she heard many times that Jiang Lingyu liked her, she never took it seriously.
Because she never felt any change in his attitude towards her.
My father once said that when you truly like someone, you can’t take your eyes off her.
Her parents were just like that, they only had eyes for each other.
