Chapter 765
"Father."
As soon as Ning Qiwen saw her, he waved to her and said, "Che'er, come here quickly. Did you come from the Marquis's residence?"
Ning Che nodded: "Yes, I heard everything from Prince Shen."
Ning Qiwen sighed heavily: "This is my fault. I arranged your engagement without investigating the matter thoroughly, and now things have become so ugly."
Lady Ning said, "My lord, now is not the time to blame yourself. Let's think about how to handle this matter!"
What should be done?
That's the difficult part!
The wedding invitations have already been sent out, and everyone in Luoyang knows about them. But then that brat from the Wen family made a scene, and now we're in a real bind – we can't do it, and we can't not do it!
Seeing that Ning Qiwen remained silent for a long time, Madam Ning couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Master, you haven't considered calling off this marriage, have you?!"
Ning Che's face immediately turned pale.
Ning Qiwen said helplessly, "Che'er is my own daughter. How could I possibly push her into a fire pit? But this matter... has really blown up too much. It wouldn't be right for our family to rashly call off the engagement now!"
"How can it not be reasonable! That Wen family boy is so dissolute and depraved, what is there to complain about!" Madam Ning's voice immediately rose a notch. "Given the current situation, if we really marry our daughter off to him, people will point fingers and say that our family is incompetent!"
Ning Qiwen could only sigh.
He looked at Ning Che.
Ning Che had been crying all day, and her eyes were red and swollen. She was looking at him with teary eyes.
Ning Qiwen's heart softened, and he finally made a decision: "Retreat! Our Ning family cannot tolerate such humiliation!"
Ning Che immediately stopped crying and started laughing, and Madam Ning's gaze softened as well.
Although she had made up her mind to break off the engagement, it wasn't something that could be done with just a few words.
However, with Ning Qiwen handling it, Ning Che had nothing to worry about. After resting for two days, he returned to his usual carefree self.
She became even more restless.
Early that morning, she went to the Marquis's residence.
"Zhao Zhao, a music hall recently opened in Luoyang City. Shall we go listen to some music?" Ning Che said excitedly. "There's a famous young master named Xiuzhu in Jiangnan. I heard that in Jiangnan, it's extremely difficult to get a performance. This music hall was opened by him!"
"Young Master Xiuzhu?"
Huo Zhao, who was still half asleep when he heard this name, was stunned for a moment.
I don't remember.
She said, "Sure, you're here so early. Have you eaten yet?"
No sooner had Huo Zhao finished speaking than Ning Che's stomach growled.
"hey-hey......"
Huo Zhao sighed helplessly, "Let's eat something together before we go."
Ning Che nodded repeatedly: "No rush, no rush. It's still early. Besides, although Young Master Xiuzhu performs every day, the time is unpredictable. I've already sent someone to keep watch!"
"You've arranged everything perfectly."
Huo Zhao glanced at her.
Ning Che chuckled: "Oh, when we go out to play, of course we should arrange everything as early as possible, so we don't have to worry about so many things while we're having fun!"
"That makes sense."
Seeing that Huo Zhao still looked sleepy after talking for so long, Ning Che tilted his head and asked, "Zhao Zhao, why are you so tired today?"
Huo Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth.
We'll have to ask Shen Rang, who only fell asleep late at night.
However, Huo Zhao couldn't discuss these private matters between husband and wife in front of Ning Che, who was still unmarried, so he simply said, "Children shouldn't pry into the affairs of adults."
Ning Che pouted: "Hurry up, it's not easy to hear Young Master Xiuzhu sing a song, we can't miss it!"
Huo Zhao rarely saw Ning Che so concerned about something, so he couldn't help but find it novel.
At the same time, I also felt a little curious about the young master Xiuzhu, whom I had never met before.
