Peng Chi, standing at the city gate, was deeply troubled.
I finally found a girl who makes my heart flutter, but it seems she already has someone she likes.
He looked at Lu Zheng with some ill intent. This kid was too much. He deliberately approached Xin Xin when she was so young. Yes, that's right, he must have approached her on purpose. He was too insidious and too cunning.
Almost everyone in the Peng family knew about Lu Zheng's relationship with the Gu family. Of course, only General Peng knew Lu Zheng's true identity.
Therefore, Peng Chi knew that Lu Zheng had known Gu Xin for several years.
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow. Just a few days ago, Peng Sanlang treated him like a brother. What's wrong with him now?
Soon, Peng Chi let Lu Zheng know what was wrong with him.
His eyes were like knives as he stared at Lu Zheng and Gu Xin's clasped hands, and then he said, "Zhou Yuan, this is a breach of etiquette!"
Gu Xin: "!"
Lu Zheng: "...General Chi wants to talk to me about etiquette?"
The most important noble families in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty are probably your Peng family, and yet you dare to talk to me about manners?
Peng Chi nodded: "That's right! I'm talking to you about manners. You and Xin Xin have a good relationship, but holding hands with Xin Xin in public is something that will ruin her reputation!"
Lu Zheng laughed: "In Kuncheng, it's perfectly normal for two people to hold hands after falling in love. General Chi, are you deliberately trying to pick a fight with me?"
Peng Chi nodded: "That's right! Because I can't stand it. I like Miss Gu, and before the Gu family betroths her to you, please respect Miss Gu and the men who admire her. Whether Miss Gu will marry you in the end is still unknown!"
Gu Xin stared at Peng Chi in surprise, her eyes wide with disbelief.
It's amazing that other guys like her besides Yuanyuan!
Lu Zheng was taken aback. He hadn't expected Peng Chi to so openly reveal his thoughts.
On second thought, apart from Peng Mu, the other brothers in the Peng family all say what they mean. Liking someone isn't shameful, so why can't they say it?
He felt uneasy. He knew that as Xin Xin grew older and her looks blossomed, he would have many more rivals in love. It was just like that in his past life; he never expected to have rivals so early in this life.
It seems he really needs to work hard to win over the Gu family. He needs to get this engagement settled first. Hmm, he'll be visiting Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, Uncle Gu, Second Uncle Gu, and Second Aunt Gu in a few days.
Peng Chi looked at Gu Xin and said, "Third Miss Gu, you're still young. Don't let Zhou Yuan fool you. I know you're from the same village and have a good relationship. But back then you didn't know many men. Now that you're older, you'll know many men. A girl as good as you shouldn't hang yourself on one tree. Look around, think things through, and make more choices. There are many men better than Zhou Yuan."
Lu Zheng: "..."
As expected of the Peng family, they poached talent right to his face, acting with integrity and leaving no room for argument.
Gu Xin pursed her lips and said, "Third Brother Peng, you actually like me? What do you like about me?"
Lu Zheng turned his head to look at Gu Xin. Hey, little girl, you're actually interested in this? You little ingrate, I'm right here!
Peng Chi was overjoyed. It seemed he still had a chance. So he patted his chest, making a sound as if he were making a promise.
Lu Zheng felt like punching someone after seeing this.
Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Hmph, Peng Sanlang, I'll remember you!"
