Chapter 76 His Ah Jin is such an ungrateful little bastard.
Song Jin stood there like a frightened bird.
"You, you, you!" The girl took a step back, slightly increasing the distance between herself and Jiang Yan.
She blinked, with panic on her face: "How could you say it so easily?!"
She really didn't expect Jiang Yan to be so direct!
They had only met three times in total and had barely spoken a few serious words to each other. Why was he suddenly telling her such a thing?
Seeing the girl in a daze, Jiang Yan smiled gently, revealing his little canine teeth. He scratched the back of his head apologetically: "Sorry, I think I scared you."
Song Jin agreed: "You did scare me."
Jiang Yan paused, he did not intend to give up, but said: "I am abrupt, but I have always been a straightforward person, and I don't like to test, so I told you my feelings early, actually I was afraid..."
Jiang Yan was a little embarrassed: "I'm also afraid that your engagement will be snatched away by someone else."
Song Jin raised his head: "You don't have to..."
"I know I don't need to worry. I just asked my aunt, and she said you are not married yet. I just don't know..." Jiang Yan was a little anxious, a little worried, and a little cautious: "I wonder if you have a lover?"
"Me." Song Jin was about to answer no, but Xie Qiao's image suddenly popped up in her mind.
She paused immediately, then slowly said: "I don't have a crush on my lover."
Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Can you consider me? I'm the only son of the Jiang family. I'm nineteen this year. I'll take the imperial examination next year. I have parents and a younger sister at home."
Song Jin grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "You, you don't have to introduce it in such detail."
"Yes, you will know all these things in the future. I am too long-winded." Jiang Yan's eyes were full of hope. He looked at Song Jin: "You already know my feelings, so do you like me?"
Song Jin was stunned by these straight balls that kept hitting him.
How come Jiang Yan...
Song Jin shook his head.
Jiang Yao just said it very clearly that the Jiang family would not agree to what they were doing.
And she felt that Jiang Yao was right.
If you know from the beginning that you can't die, then there's no need to continue.
But the young man in front of her was too sincere, and she really couldn't bear to say such a cruel rejection.
She could only shake her head.
The stars in Jiang Yan's eyes dimmed a few, and then he was like a puppy whose fighting spirit was rekindled.
"It's okay! It doesn't matter if you don't like me now!" Jiang Yan said with a smile: "Anyway, you don't have anyone you like now, why don't you consider me."
Song Jin said softly and seriously, "Mr. Jiang, it's impossible for the two of us. Although I am Xie Qiao's adopted sister now, I will return to the shop in a while. I will still be the shopkeeper. The Jiang family is a wealthy family. We are not suitable."
"But my aunt likes you!" Jiang Yan paused. He was a little unsure, but still said, "As long as my aunt goes and asks, my parents will definitely agree!"
As Jiang Yan spoke, he suddenly reached out to grab Song Jin's hand.
Song Jin subconsciously withdrew his hand.
Jiang Yan only touched Song Jin's sleeve.
Immediately afterwards, Song Jin's hand was grasped by a slightly cold hand. That hand was familiar to Song Jin. As soon as he held it, he knew it was Xie Qiao.
Song Jin looked back and blinked: "Brother, why are you here?!"
Jiang Yan was also surprised. He looked at his cousin in front of him and saluted respectfully: "Cousin."
"Yes." Xie Qiao was wearing a dark purple official uniform, without an official hat on his head, only a golden crown, looking very noble.
He responded calmly and calmly hid Song Jin behind him.
For the first time, Song Jin felt that Xie Qiao's figure was so tall that as long as he stood in front of her, he could block all her sight.
You can also let her hide.
Song Jin pursed his lips, feeling a little distracted.
[Why didn’t I realize that my brother is so tall before? I always feel that he is a sickly person! 】
[No, his health isn’t that good right now, right? 】
[After all, it can only happen once every night.] 】
[When we were in the water last night, I seemed to see him holding his waist...]
Jiang Yan stood up and looked at Xie Qiao, who was always serious and looked even colder today.
Jiang Yan shuddered all over.
Then he saw his eldest cousin staring at him. His expression became colder and colder, and there was an emotion in his eyes that he couldn't understand. It seemed that he was enduring something, and he even sneered sinisterly!
Jiang Yan lowered his head and dared not look again.
Naturally, Jiang Yan didn't even notice Xie Qiao's clenched fist hidden under his sleeve.
Ah Jin, what did she say?
Who supported my waist last night?
He gritted his teeth and could only focus all his emotions on Jiang Yan in front of him.
He just...
Are you confessing your love to Ajin?
This kid is quite straightforward.
In front of him, there is no hiding at all.
Xie Qiao thought of the flower that he had torn into pieces last night.
Suddenly I felt that the sunlight on the face of the boy in front of me was a little dazzling.
Too dazzling.
Xie Qiao stared at Jiang Yan in front of him and said, "My cousin is free today. Come to Xie's house when you have time."
"Yes, today A Yao said she wanted to come and see my aunt, so I came with her. My aunt is taking a nap now, so she left us alone in the yard." Jiang Yan replied quickly.
He always felt that his cousin was in a bad mood today.
Maybe something went wrong in the palace?
"Well, where's A-Yao?" Xie Qiao looked around, "Why are you the only one here?"
A man and a woman alone.
This kid, huh.
"Ayao was here just now. Now she must be feeling hot and went in to eat." Jiang Yan made up a random excuse.
Their eldest cousin is a few years older than them, but his temperament is like that of their elder. They have been afraid of this eldest cousin since they were young.
The same is true now.
"Well, it's hot outside, you and A Yao should go inside too," Xie Qiao turned around and naturally took Song Jin's hand, "A Jin, come back with me, I have something to tell you."
Song Jin quickly said "hmm" twice obediently.
She followed Xie Qiao away, and then glanced at Jiang Yan behind her with some apology.
But Jiang Yan's eyes were fixed on their joined hands.
My cousin never likes people to get close to him.
Suddenly, it felt quite awkward to see him holding someone else's hand.
and……
Jiang Yan looked at his empty palm.
Just now, it was Meng Lang who, when he was talking about something exciting, subconsciously wanted to hold Song Jin's hand.
It's normal for her to avoid it.
But now he saw Song Jin being taken away obediently by her cousin, and she didn't seem to reject her cousin's contact at all.
Even when her eldest cousin pulled her, she didn't react at all, as if she was used to it.
Jiang Yan frowned, feeling that something was strange.
But he felt that he was overthinking.
Song Jin said that she has no lover now, and it doesn't seem to be a lie. That must be because her eldest cousin has a good relationship with her and she is well-behaved and polite, which is why she is so close to her eldest cousin.
Jiang Yan thought about it and suddenly felt that his future was a bit difficult.
Maybe his cousin heard some of what he said just now, but judging from his attitude just now, it seemed that he did not quite agree with what was happening between them.
Jiang Yan was a little depressed.
He knew from a young age that Xie Qiao was the head of the Xie family, and as the head of the family, he put the family first.
In fact, what Song Jin said just now was correct. Even though she was her eldest cousin's sister, she was still not a good match for him in terms of family background.
What if my eldest cousin and my parents don’t agree?
Then this matter...
It is indeed a bit difficult.
He should go talk to his eldest cousin.
At least I have to let my cousin know that he truly likes Song Jin.
My cousin has been faithful to his cousin's wife, whom he has never met, this year. I think she should understand his feelings.
He will definitely understand!
--
Song Jin was brought back to Yuechuan Pavilion by Xie Qiao. Xiao Luo came out and saw the eldest master at a glance, and then she silently retreated to the small kitchen.
The eldest son seemed to have something to say to the girl.
The eldest son seemed to have a lot to say to the girl.
I talked for such a long time yesterday but I still didn’t finish.
Song Jin was brought into the house. When she saw Xie Qiao in official uniform and with an abstinent look on his face, she suddenly pursed her lips.
【Help! My brother, you look so shy! 】
[I can’t even imagine how exciting it would be if he were wearing an official uniform! 】
Xie Qiao listened to Song Jin's thoughts and frowned slightly.
Wear official uniform?
How shameful is this?
It's extremely disrespectful!
but……
Does she actually like official uniforms?
Xie Qiao sat opposite Song Jin and casually poured himself a cup of tea, feeling as familiar as if he were in his own room.
Song Jin also sat down obediently.
She said, "Brother, what do you want to tell me?"
Xie Qiao was wearing an official uniform and looked very serious. He must have something serious to tell her.
Song Jin sat upright.
Song Jin listened carefully.
Then Xie Qiao put the teacup on the table and asked calmly, "Ajin, last night was the first time we were in the water. Did you feel uncomfortable?"
Song Jin: "Hmm?"
Song Jin: "Ah?"
Song Jin never expected that Xie Qiao would actually ask her about this? !
He was dressed in official uniform, looking serious, with a jade face and a golden crown, as if he was an important official in the Golden Palace, second only to the emperor.
People can only look up at it, but dare not play with it.
But he actually asked such a question.
ah?
Is this right?
Even though Song Jin was a little shocked, she was an obedient person, so she answered seriously, "I was fine last night, but I was a little tired at the end, and my butt and hips were sore."
When she was changing clothes in the morning, she secretly looked in the mirror and saw faint red marks on her buttocks.
It was Xie Qiao who beat him!
Thinking of this, Song Jin said seriously: "Brother, no more fighting!"
Xie Qiao looked serious and asked knowingly, "Where did you hit?"
Song Jin thought Xie Qiao was crazy.
She actually had a moment of suspicion that the Xie Qiao in front of her was a hypocritical sanctimonious person!
Song Jin's eyebrows knitted together: "Butt."
She emphasized: "Don't hit me!"
Xie Qiao raised the corner of his mouth, nodded, and slowly rubbed his fingertips on the teacup, as if he was stroking Song Jin's soft cheek.
He didn't apologize, nor did he feel that he had done anything wrong, nor did he even promise not to do it again in the future. Instead, he said, "I lost control last night, but Jin, you were not paying attention last night."
Song Jin pursed his lips and prepared to lie: "How am I not concentrating?"
She even wanted to turn the tables: "Brother-in-law actually had time to notice that I wasn't paying attention. It seems like he wasn't working very hard."
Even though I felt very comfortable in the water last night, it was wrong to have my butt spanked! 】
There was a dull pain in her buttocks, which she could feel as soon as she sat down.
Xie Qiao should apologize, how could he still blame himself for being distracted?
She was a little angry too!
Xie Qiao listened to Song Jin's words and the corners of his mouth curled up again.
He looked at Song Jin with his phoenix eyes——
What an ungrateful little bastard.
