What's going on? Bai Yueyue is very confused. She tried to read minds from Hu Meier and the others as well, but it still didn't work.
What did this guy do?
The failure of mind-reading made her uneasy, but Bai Yueyue sensed that the source within her body had not changed.
So, does that mean they only interfered with my mind-reading ability?
However, Bai Yueyue knew that she rarely used her mind-reading ability and would not expose it, so how did they know and target her?
Many have tried to target Bai Yueyue's abilities, but this is the first time someone has succeeded. Even though it's just mind reading, it's enough to make Bai Yueyue wary.
"Miss Bai Yueyue, is there a problem?" The other person's smile suddenly became terrifying in Bai Yueyue's eyes.
"Sorry, I was a little lost in thought just now." Bai Yueyue used magic to calm herself down, and at the same time made sure that the other spells had not failed. She then said with a fake smile, "I'm so sorry, my children don't understand. I've caused you trouble."
"Honestly, if I had known they were Miss Bai Yueyue's people, I definitely wouldn't have let the servants behave so rudely." The boy said gently, seemingly not caring about the matter at all.
"How could you do this? They offended you and made a mistake; they deserve to be punished. I've already had their head officer take them to the police station." Bai Yueyue tried to excuse herself, attempting to shift the blame onto Qin Ye. After all, that was the purpose of arranging for Qin Ye.
"Hehe, Miss Bai Yueyue is truly merciful. If it were me, I would have already executed this servant who caused trouble for the master." The noble mindset resurfaced, but it also relieved Bai Yueyue. This meant that the other party did not understand her way of thinking and would not easily guide her thoughts.
“They are not my servants,” Bai Yueyue said apologetically. “Besides, they are just children, so we should educate them if we can. However, I heard that your jade pendant was lost because of their theft, and I am truly sorry. Of course, I will compensate you.”
"Hehe, Miss Bai Yueyue, you really know how to say cute things," the other person said nonchalantly, whether it was because of the jade pendant or because Bai Yueyue said those people were not her servants. "Since Miss Bai Yueyue has come in person, please have lunch with me first."
“It’s a real shame, I’m not engaged yet. If I were to have lunch with a man, my mother would be very angry,” Bai Yueyue explained, using the words Li Jieyue had taught her. “Besides, I don’t even know your name yet.”
"Just call me Ahao." Ahao didn't show any extra emotion, maintaining an elegant and gentle attitude as he replied to Bai Yueyue's rejection. "It's really heartbreaking, but since Miss Bai Yueyue rejected me because we're not engaged, can I take that as a reason to propose to her?"
Huh?! Even magic couldn't suppress Bai Yueyue's astonishment. Was she really being proposed to like this? And by a man?!
Dude, I admit you're somewhat good-looking, but I'm really not in high school. By the way, am I considered to be in high school now?
"Hehe, Young Master Ahao can say such cute things. I'm still a minor, and my mother won't agree to my engagement or even marriage. Besides, Young Master Ahao isn't even willing to tell me his real name, so I find it hard to believe in his sincerity." After a noticeable emotional fluctuation, Bai Yueyue regained her composure and chuckled as she rejected Ahao's request.
In her current state, getting engaged to any family in the capital would only bring her trouble, especially the imperial family, who would never agree to her getting engaged to another family.
"It's alright. Miss Bai Yueyue is so beautiful and charming that I fell in love with her at first sight. I will ask my father to propose to Bai Yueyue's elders on my behalf." Ahao was very confident, as if he thought it was a foregone conclusion.
Does this person believe they will get ahead of other families, or is this person actually from the imperial family?
However, Bai Yueyue had no intention of getting involved with Ahao, a guy she had clearly rejected but who still wouldn't consider her choice.
"Hehe, then please let your parents make the decision." Bai Yueyue no longer believed that she could decide her own marriage, but she didn't care.
The matter of Nianxin had already broken her heart. Letting Li Jieyue and the others make the decisions would reduce a lot of trouble. For example, right now, she could push everything to Li Jieyue and the others to handle.
"If Young Master Ahao has nothing else to say, I'll take my leave now." Bai Yueyue didn't want to talk to him anymore; it was all unpleasant topics, and more importantly, there wasn't any particularly important information. "Regarding the jade pendant, please have your personal attendants contact people to discuss compensation."
"Oh dear, is Miss Bai Yueyue leaving already?" Ahao made a troubled expression. "It's really sad. Miss Bai Yueyue's godfather, Lord Qin Limin, had already agreed to let Miss Bai Yueyue spend a day with me."
Bai Yueyue almost lost her composure. She stopped trying to get up, sat back down calmly, and replied, "But my godfather didn't tell me."
Godfather, what are you doing?! Didn't you say that my becoming your goddaughter would only be revealed at my coming-of-age ceremony? How come people already know? Also, you're not really planning to make me engaged to this person, are you?
“Miss Bai Yueyue, you should have your personal attendant ask her about this,” Ahao interjected.
"Mei'er, I'm asking you to inquire about this matter with your godfather." Bai Yueyue sat in her original seat, calmly scanning Ahao.
Who exactly is this person? They can block mind reading, their personal attendants are more professional than Mei'er and the others, and they can even make their adoptive father make this decision on the spot.
Bai Yueyue was certain that Qin Limin's decision was impromptu; otherwise, he would not have made such a dangerous decision without consulting Li Jieyue or herself.
The only one who could make Qin Limin make this decision so hastily is someone from the Imperial Clan. Even if it were someone from one of the Five Great Families, with Qin Zhenming present, Qin Limin could find excuses to delay and let Li Jieyue come up with a solution for him.
Honestly, why aren't the imperial family members staying in the capital? What are they doing in Asia City?
When Hu Meier returned, she looked troubled, but finally nodded and said, "Miss, Lord Qin Limin asked you to participate in activities with Lord Ahao today."
I have already informed Madam. Both Madam and Lord Qin Limin have instructed you to be extra careful, to record all your words and actions today, and to go to the Qin family immediately afterward.
This was a whispered conversation between Hu Meier and Bai Yueyue. Only mind-reading was blocked; the other magic remained intact. Bai Yueyue didn't need to worry that Ahao's personal attendants could hear it.
“Miss Bai Yueyue, now that Lord Qin Limin has agreed, I really hope we will have a pleasant time together.”
"Hehe, I'm also very happy to be able to get along with Young Master Ahao."
"Aaaaah! Godfather, what's wrong with you? Shouldn't you just tell me his identity? And aren't you afraid I'll turn into a suicide bomber if I spend a day alone with someone from the Imperial Clan?"
