Shen Ning was stunned for a moment; Du Yunzhi's words were truly astonishing.
Not only did she fail to understand Ye Feiyan's intentions, she also misunderstood them in a strange way.
The thought that Du Yunzhi actually believed Ye Feiyan liked her mother made Shen Ning suddenly lose her composure.
"Hahahaha... Hahaha..."
Shen Ning hugged Du Yunzhi and almost laughed himself silly.
The two people in front looked back after hearing this, and Du Yunzhi was speechless. She asked Li Shaobai, who was standing next to her, "What's wrong with her?"
Li Shaobai, who overheard the conversation, couldn't help but cover his mouth with a smile. He didn't answer Du Yunzhi's question, but strode forward and even patted Ye Feiyan's shoulder with concern.
After this experience, Shen Ning entered the Temple of the Matchmaker with a smile on her face. She was laughing so hard she almost died. Ouch, her stomach hurts.
Du Yunzhi, on the contrary, was speechless, not understanding what she was so happy about, and not only was she laughing so exaggeratedly, but she also didn't tell her.
There were quite a few people at the Temple of the Matchmaker. Madam Du bought wishing plaques and made sure everyone wrote one.
As expected, only Ye Feiyan wrote with enthusiasm, while the other three looked at the sign with difficulty.
Du Yunzhi was clueless and focused on her calculations; Li Shaobai was focused on his career and didn't seem like he was interested in Hongluan; as for Shen Ning... she understood a bit, but she had never been interested and didn't really need it.
Under Madam Du's watchful gaze, the three of them still wrote it down, but dared not show it to her, and hurriedly threw it up.
Du Yunzhi leaned closer to Shen Ning and whispered, "What did you write?"
Shen Ning: "And what about you?"
Du Yunzhi: "Flowers bloom on their own, winds come on their own." Let everything take its course.
It's quite poetic.
Shen Ning's gaze was firm: "A life of wealth and honor, and all villains will be banished." She wondered if the Old Man of the Moon cared about this.
The two looked at each other, suddenly burst into laughter, and then went inside to burn incense, arm in arm.
Li Shaobai looked at the unwritten sign in his hand, initially somewhat resistant, but after hearing what the two people had written, he suddenly understood.
Who says you have to force a marriage at the Temple of the Matchmaker? What kind of fate isn't fate?
I quickly wrote the sentence and threw it on the paper, feeling as if a weight had been lifted from my heart.
Matchmaker: ...You know how to make things difficult for people.
The group went in to burn incense and kowtow, and then went to the wishing well to make a wish. There was also a long street in front of the Yue Lao Temple, which sold all kinds of items related to marriage. They were all in pairs, and the red color was dazzling.
Um?
Shen Ning's gaze was fixed on Du Yunzhi's wrist. When did a red string appear there?
What happened in just a short while?
Noticing Shen Ning's gaze, Du Yunzhi blushed instantly, her eyes darting away, not daring to look at her, and she turned and ran towards Madam Du.
Ye Feiyan strolled leisurely behind, but his posture was a bit too deliberate.
He deliberately raised the hand holding the folding fan high, as if afraid others wouldn't see the red string on his hand.
The overwhelming sultry aura made Shen Ning and Li Shaobai both take a step back, not wanting to pay him any attention.
Du Yunzhi shyly clung to Su Yan, while the three of them walked side by side behind her.
Ye Feiyan was in the middle, while Li Shaobai and Shen Ning each stood far away on one side, neither wanting to get within three steps of him.
Of course, it wasn't realistic to keep hiding, so in the end, Li Shaobai gave in first: "Congratulations."
Shen Ning didn't want to see him smug, so she put on a cold and aloof attitude: "I am Yunzhi's older sister, and this marriage still needs to be investigated."
Although she's not my biological sister, she's still my sister.
Ye Feiyan bowed and said, "Sister, Ye Feiyan greets you."
Shen Ning: "......"
"You... are very good." Shen Ning originally wanted to say something joking, but in the end it turned into a genuine smile.
Since Shen Ning is from her family, she can't say congratulations. The two aren't engaged yet, so she can't send blessings. She can only show her approval of Ye Feiyan.
Ye Feiyan could naturally feel Shen Ning's sincere blessings and understanding. Even though she was younger than him, he felt as if he was being taken care of by his elder sister.
It's amazing, and then looking at Shen Ning's face... it's awkward.
"Thank you, sister."
Along the way, Ye Feiyan and Du Yunzhi kept making small moves, acting as if everyone else was blind, having a great time. No one knew what Ye Feiyan said that suddenly made the blockhead see the light, and they couldn't stop now.
As they walked, Shen Ning and Li Shaobai ended up together.
Shen Ning glanced at Su Yan's observing gaze and remained speechless. What? After praying at the Matchmaker Temple once, Madam Du wanted to matchmake two couples?
"careful."
Seeing that Shen Ning was about to fall into a trap, Li Shaobai finally spoke up to warn her.
Shen Ning stopped and walked around him: "Young Master Li, are you not busy lately?"
They hadn't seen each other for a long time since then, and Li Shaobai was even angry last time.
Li Shaobai remained as composed as ever: "I've finished what I needed to do, and what I shouldn't be busy with is naturally none of my business."
Shen Ning chuckled softly and sighed, "I've known the young master for three or four years now."
Li Shaobai: "More or less."
Shen Ning: "I always thought that Young Master Li was as elegant as jade and as pure as a gentle breeze and bright moon. This is the first time I have seen you get angry. It's as if you have become more down-to-earth."
Li Shaobai was silent for a moment: "They're all just ordinary people."
Shen Ning brushed aside the red tassels hanging in front of her: "Yes, we're all just ordinary people. As for me, I like money, I like leisurely days, I like traveling with friends in groups of three or five. I've always been pleasure-seeking, and I don't care about anything else."
Is this explaining what happened before?
"You weren't like this before."
Could that workaholic woman be a fake?
Shen Ning: "People only strive for what they feel is worthwhile. This was true in the past and it is true now. Who can't change their goal?"
