Upon hearing this, Fu Rongchen paused, glancing at her. "Someone like you, what good price could you fetch?"
Shangguan Yanran's face darkened, and she was very unconvinced: "What's wrong with me? I have a pretty face and a good figure, so why can't I sell for a good price?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Rongchen's lips twitched suspiciously. "I think you've got a thick skin."
Shangguan Yanran's face fell. "You'll never be able to find a wife."
Fu Rongchen said nonchalantly, "That's perfect, I don't want to get married yet."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yanran assumed she understood his thoughts and stared at him with wide eyes. "So, you, like Young Master Wang, have homosexual tendencies?"
Fu Rongchen paused, frowned, and scolded in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone," Shangguan Yanran assured him, patting Yuexiong's chest.
Fu Rongchen pressed his temples and emphasized, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have that kind of fetish."
"Then why don't you want to get married?" Shangguan Yanran pressed.
Looking at the girl's beautiful face, as radiant as a sunset, Fu Rongchen paused for a moment, "I don't know either."
"You don't know?" Shangguan Yanran was very surprised. "There must be a reason. Who doesn't know why they don't want to marry you? Are you just making excuses for me?"
“No.” Fu Rongchen frowned.
"My mother was busy with all sorts of things for your marriage not long ago," Shangguan Yanran said with some dissatisfaction. "Since you have no intention of getting married, you should refuse, so that my mother won't have to put in so much effort."
Fu Rongchen nodded. "In this matter, I do feel guilty towards my wife. But it was only after seeing this that I realized I didn't want to get married."
“Sigh, even monks never marry. If you don’t marry, the Fu family line will end, and your uncle and aunt will not agree.” Shangguan Yanran said in the tone of an elder. As she spoke, she couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Fu Rongchen, thinking to herself, Fu Rongchen is really handsome. He has a refined appearance and exudes the scholarly air of a gentleman, but he is not weak.
The consequence of being too focused on what you're looking at is that you don't pay attention to where you're going, and before you know it, you've stepped into a hole.
"Ah!" she cried out in surprise, falling forward uncontrollably.
She thought she was going to have a close encounter with the ground today, but unexpectedly, an arm reached out and put its arm around her shoulder.
With a spin, she was pulled into a broad embrace.
A faint scent of ink wafted into her nostrils. Beneath her hand, the man's warm, firm breasts were so clearly visible. Her heart suddenly raced. Her fingers, which were pressed against his body, twitched slightly. She suddenly had the urge to touch them. She wondered what his physique was like beneath his robes.
However, before she could put her idea into action, the man's cold voice landed on her head.
Why can't you be more careful when you walk?
Shangguan Yanran's last bit of courage vanished in an instant.
She wrinkled her nose, looked up at him, and said, "I understand. You can let me go now."
When Fu Rongchen met her smiling eyes, he realized what was happening and quickly pushed her away, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his handsome face.
But the feeling of the girl's soft body nestled in his arms was something he couldn't shake off.
He curled his fingers, somewhat afraid to look into the girl's pure eyes.
"Let's go," he said calmly, and walked forward.
Shangguan Yanran let out a soft breath.
Fortunately, Fu Rongchen interrupted her just now, otherwise she really didn't know if she would have done something lewd in the street.
Thinking of this, she wiped her sweat and followed in his footsteps.
