Chapter 222 I Want to Marry You
Shangguan Sui's ears suddenly turned red.
[Oh my god! My third brother couldn’t have seen everything!]
[Xiao Ziyuan and I just acted in a hurry, nothing happened to us! ]
Shangguan Sui's mind was a mess at this moment.
She hadn't gotten over the crazy crush she had on Xiao Ziyuan just now, and her hands and feet were still numb.
I didn’t expect that as soon as I went downstairs, I would run into my third brother whom I hadn’t seen for a long time!
He just happened to see this scene!
Shangguan Sui couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
Oh God, you did this on purpose, how come you brought all these things together!
[Bless you! Brother San didn’t see anything! 】
Shangguan Huai: ...
I didn't see it, but I heard it all.
Shangguan Huai frowned slightly and looked up at the two people standing in front of him.
Judging from their appearance alone, the two of them are indeed a perfect match.
The girl is extremely pretty and the boy is handsome.
The two of them stood side by side under the light, and to anyone's eyes they looked like a perfect match.
Naturally, he was very reluctant to get married.
But if I really had to pick one person...
Xiao Ziyuan is indeed the most suitable candidate.
The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts and know Xiao Ziyuan inside and out.
Xiao Ziyuan caught Shangguan Huai's gaze, bowed slightly and saluted him.
He is now very sure of his feelings towards Sui Sui.
He wanted to marry her, he wanted to possess her...
Wanting her to be his...
Xiao Ziyuan slightly lowered his long eyelashes.
Shangguan Huai looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh again.
He was rarely in Beijing in recent years, and when he came back he came and left in a hurry.
For a moment he didn't realize that the little girl who was only as tall as his waist and who only knew how to eat cakes has now grown into a big girl.
Shangguan Sui shook his head, and his thoughts were quickly pulled back to reality, and he gradually calmed down.
She raised her little face and asked, "Third brother, why did you come back so suddenly?"
[In recent years, my third brother and his wife have often gone out, traveling around the world together. Last year, they didn’t come back for the entire year.]
Shangguan Huai curled his lips slightly, "Fifth sister's coming-of-age ceremony is coming soon."
"How could I not come back to celebrate my fifth sister's birthday?"
Shangguan Sui pouted and pretended to be angry: "Did Third Brother prepare a gift for me? If not, I will be angry."
Shangguan Huai was amused by her appearance and reached out to rub her little head.
Although she has grown a lot, she is still as cute as before.
He Bixiao was also smiling from ear to ear, and said in a gentle voice: "Of course I have prepared the gift, Fifth Sister, I'm sure you will like it."
Shangguan Sui raised his little face and said in a crisp voice: "Thank you very much, Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law."
Shangguan Huai and He Bixiao looked at each other, their eyes full of smiles.
When traveling, there is something new and exciting every day, and the scenes of swordplay and saber-rattling make people excited.
But when I return to Beijing, I can feel the familiarity and closeness of my relatives, which makes me feel warm and comfortable.
"Third brother! Why are you back?"
Shangguan Huai was about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted by a voice coming from not far away.
He turned around and found that it was Shangguan Hong.
When Shangguan Hong saw Shangguan Huai, a look of surprise immediately flashed in his eyes.
Apart from his fifth sister, he only gets along well with his third brother.
Shangguan Huai was also very happy to see Shangguan Hong.
But he naturally did not miss the girl in red who was walking side by side with Shangguan Hong.
The two walked towards them side by side.
Although they were not close, one could clearly sense that there was a subtle atmosphere between the two of them.
Shangguan Hong even looked at the woman from time to time, as if he was afraid that she would fall down.
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Huai couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
How come when he returned to Beijing this time, his younger brothers and sisters suddenly had company?
Alas, the child has really grown up.
Shangguan Hong walked quickly to Shangguan Sui and looked her up and down nervously.
I was relieved to find that she was indeed not injured.
"Fifth sister, where have you been? I was so worried when I couldn't find you just now."
When Shangguan Sui thought of the amorous scene just now, his ears immediately turned red again.
She stammered, "No, I didn't go anywhere..."
[I can’t let my third and fourth brothers know where I’m going…]
[Otherwise, I might not be able to go out in the future! ]
Shangguan Hong and Shangguan Huai immediately became alert when they heard this.
Where did the fifth sister go? Are you afraid to let them know?
The two began to speculate suspiciously.
Shangguan Sui saw that the situation was not good, so he immediately changed the subject, "By the way, did you catch that thief again? Did you find all of Sister Huang's things?"
Huang Lingyi nodded and said crisply, "We finally caught the thief."
She waved a small, exquisite bag towards Shangguan Sui and said, "All the things have been found. Nothing is lost."
Shangguan Sui smiled and said, "That's good!"
"It's getting late, Suishun, it's time for you to go back to the palace." Shangguan Huai looked around and suddenly spoke.
"It's almost midnight now. If I don't go back, my father and the Empress Chen will be worried."
Shangguan Sui nodded and responded obediently.
"I understand, Third Brother. I'll be back now."
Shangguan Huai nodded with satisfaction, turned to look at Xiao Ziyuan who was about to speak, and immediately interrupted him.
"Let's go. I have nothing to do tonight, so I can take you back to the palace."
Shangguan Sui nodded, but still turned his head to look at Xiao Ziyuan.
[In the past, when we went out at night, Xiao Ziyuan would always take me home, but now that I have my third brother, it’s still my third brother who will take me home.]
Shangguan Huai snorted coldly when he saw this scene.
Although Xiao Ziyuan is a good candidate, it is still another matter whether he will be the one in the end.
The test of his father was enough for him to endure...
It is irrelevant now.
With his biological brother around, it would never be Xiao Ziyuan's turn to send Suisui back.
If anyone wants to send something, he should be the one to do it!
Suishun's problem was solved, and Shangguan Huai turned to look at Shangguan Hong again.
"What about you? Do you want to go back to the palace with us?"
Shangguan Hong waved his hands and said, "No, Third Brother, I will go back to Prince Qi's Mansion tonight, and I have to send Miss Huang back."
"It's too late now. It's not safe for her to go back alone."
Huang Lingyi quietly turned away when she heard this, and the tip of her ear turned a little red.
I never thought that the Fourth Prince was actually quite considerate...
Although she is an expert in martial arts, she does not need the escort of the Fourth Prince.
But whether it is necessary or not and whether the other party has thought about you or whether they keep you in mind are two completely different things.
Huang Lingyi nodded slightly and replied softly, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Shangguan Huai couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this, and looked at Shangguan Hong jokingly.
In the end, Shangguan Sui followed Shangguan Huai back to the palace.
Xiao Ziyuan went home alone.
Huang Lingyi and Shangguan Hong walked side by side towards the Huang Mansion.
It was a dark night, and the moonlight shone upon them.
The shadows they cast on the ground were extremely long.
Huang Lingyi slowly told Shangguan Hong about her experiences in the frontier, and Shangguan Hong found it very interesting.
The two of them talked and laughed, and unknowingly walked to the gate of Huang's mansion.
Shangguan Hong looked at the large plaque and the closed door, and suddenly felt very reluctant to leave.
He didn't want her to leave...
Will she see her tomorrow?
If only, if only she were his wife.
This way he can see her every day...
Thinking of this, Shangguan Hong plucked up his courage and looked up at the bright and charming girl in front of him.
But he couldn't help but stutter as soon as he opened his mouth, "Ms. Huang, are you, are you engaged?"
Huang Lingyi shook her head. "No, my mother said that unless I like the person, she would not arrange a marriage for me without my permission."
Shangguan Hong pursed his lips and looked up at her.
"If I want to marry you, are you willing?"
After saying this, Shangguan Hong immediately held his breath, waiting for her answer.
