Looking at her red eyes, the oppressive aura in his body dissipated by half, but his voice was still slightly cold: "When did I ever say I didn't want you?"
She snorted coldly, "It's only a matter of time. You'll get tired of me after just one look at me. Besides, I'm not good at anything, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I can't compare to Miss Jiang in any way. It won't be long before you get tired of me. I'm just afraid, so I want to find a way out for myself."
He pinched her face and said, "You are good at turning the tables."
He seemed less angry, his expression had softened, and he loosened his grip on her wrist. Looking at the circle of red fingerprints on her slender wrist, he frowned slightly and gently rubbed her wrist.
"I've already made my promise, and I won't go back on my word. Just stay at the Xie family and those people from the Xu family won't dare do anything to you. When Xu Shujin grows up, I'll arrange for two capable people to assist him and take over the family business."
Wanruo nodded obediently: "I understand."
He said casually, "If you want to learn music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, come to Songhe Garden every day and I will teach you personally."
Wanruo's face froze, and she said dryly, "My cousin is busy with government affairs every day, so why would I bother you with these trivial matters?"
"I'm almost done. From now on, come to Songhe Garden at 5 p.m. every day, and I'll teach you everything."
Wanruo felt overwhelmed. How could she have the time to learn all this, and what was more, she needed him to teach her? Wouldn't that mean she would have to go to Songhe Garden every day from now on?
"It still counts..."
His eyes narrowed slightly, hinting at danger: "Aren't you afraid that I'll dislike you?"
Wanruo: “…”
I really want to go back and slap myself hard half an hour ago! You can't talk nonsense!
She lowered her head: "I know."
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he felt inexplicably happy. He raised his hand and ruffled her hair: "It's a little late today, so let's start from tomorrow."
She was so annoyed that she pulled at his sleeve and whispered, "Then go back quickly. I'm afraid of being seen. The last time you took me to Songhe Garden, everyone in the house knew about it. I'm really scared."
He lowered his eyes and looked at her. He originally wanted to ask her to go to Songhe Garden to accompany him tomorrow, but thinking that she was tired after a day and needed to rest after recovering from a serious illness, he finally gave up.
"Then you take a rest."
Only then did he turn and leave.
Ding Dong was guarding outside the courtyard. When he saw him come out, he quickly saluted: "Young Master."
Xie Xianyu ordered coldly, "Take care of her. If anything happens, tell me immediately."
Ding Dong nodded quickly: "Your servant is Bai."
Qiu Shui Yuan is located in a remote area, and it's almost dark now, so no one will pay attention to me if I leave.
Wanruo watched Xie Xianyu disappear from her sight from the window, her face gradually darkening.
Su Yue came in and asked worriedly, "Miss, are you okay?"
She shook her head. "I was too impatient. A man like Xie Xianyu wouldn't tolerate others making decisions on their own, especially since Ajin is still in his hands."
We have to take it slow and plan for the long term.
If she could find a way to send Ajin away first, she wouldn't have to worry about anything. Fortunately, there was still time. She had to calm Xie Xianyu down first and then make arrangements slowly.
The most annoying thing now is that she will have to go to Songhe Garden every day to learn some music, chess, calligraphy and painting!
As Xie Xianyu left Qiushui Courtyard, Qing'an deliberately ran ahead to scout the way, then ran back: "Master, are we going back to Songhe Garden now?"
Xie Xianyu said coldly, "Go to Wutong Pavilion."
"Ah?" Qing'an was stunned.
Wutongxuan is the courtyard where the third wife lives. Has the young master ever had any connection with the third wife?
