"What news? Look at you."
Xu Nian said, "This servant overheard that the eldest princess of the Shi family will be going to Tantuo Temple the day after tomorrow."
Bobo said, "Fine, I'll go then." What's there to say?
Xu Nian: "This servant is not anxious for my master, but my master, look, Princess Shi is only sixteen this year and is about to be married. My master is a bit older than Princess Shi, so we can't keep going on like this."
Bobo thought she had misheard: "Wait a minute, what did you just say?"
Xu Nian said, "This servant says that Master cannot continue to be so busy."
Bobo said, "The previous sentence."
“Master is a bit older than Princess Shi.”
He said with a kiss, "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Xu Nian stopped beating around the bush: "This servant heard that Princess Shi is going to Tantuo Temple for a matchmaking the day after tomorrow."
Bobo: That's right, that's the sentence.
Bobo asked, "Who is the other person?"
Xu Nian revealed the man Shi Zhenyun wanted to meet: a young master from the Hitara clan.
Bobo: "Okay, I understand."
And that was the end of the story.
Xu Nian felt something was off; his master's reaction was far too bland.
Two days passed in this way. Shi Zhenyun dressed up and followed Jue Luo to marry Tan Tuo Temple. Bo Bo also got up early and asked Xu Nian to prepare a carriage, saying that he was going to Tan Tuo Temple.
Xu Nian then muttered to himself that he understood his master's actions; he was truly taking it to heart.
Shi Zhenyun went to Tantuo Temple with Jue Luo Shi and also met Xitala Fujin Tongjia Shi.
Upon meeting, the two wives, who were of similar age, began to praise each other. Then, Tong Jia Ruoruo said with a embarrassed expression, "I'm so sorry, sister. My son set off with us today, but when he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he was suddenly summoned by the yamen. I heard it was for something important."
So I couldn't come over.
With a smile, Jue Luo said, "Being busy is good; being valued means you'll definitely have a bright future."
However, she didn't think that way in her heart. She didn't care about being busy or not. They had agreed to meet today. Her daughter wasn't dependent on him. If she couldn't come, it was either because she didn't value it or because they weren't meant to be.
The Jue Luo clan still strongly believed in fate.
Tongjia knew she was in the wrong today, so she flattered Jueluo in every way, and Jueluo accepted it without feeling guilty.
Shi Zhenyun naturally found out as well. Jue Luo sent her out to take a look, while she herself began to deal with Tong Jia.
When Xu Nian arrived at Tantuo Temple, he naturally inquired about the situation and learned that the young master of the Xitala clan had not been able to come today. Xu Nian then felt as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
As expected, he was still too young. How could the master be completely unprepared? Look at his efficiency! Xu Nian was satisfied and believed that they would soon have a female master.
Xu Nian had already found out Shi Zhenyun's whereabouts without Bobo even asking. Without saying anything, he led Bobo directly to Shi Zhenyun.
To be honest, Shi Zhenyun was a little stunned when she saw Bobo appear in front of her.
Shi Zhenyun still remembered Bobo. As a lady from a prominent family who managed a large backyard with a large number of servants, she was good at recognizing people.
Especially with Bobo's handsome appearance and outstanding temperament, even if you don't say you'll never forget him, you'll definitely remember him for a short time.
Bobo said, "Princess, we meet again, what a coincidence."
Shi Zhenyun was a little embarrassed: "It is quite a coincidence."
Bobo isn't exactly a smooth talker when it comes to flirting with girls. He's good-looking, but he's quite awkward around women. He just has a certain aloofness about him.
Anyway, no one noticed his clumsiness.
At first, Shi Zhenyun also thought it was not an accident. After all, what a coincidence! Besides, she had inquired about this place before coming here. Usually, only women would come here, and there weren't many people.
But judging from Bobo's reaction, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would do something like that on purpose. She had seen how those spoiled brats harassed women before, and it had nothing to do with the person in front of her.
Since they didn't know each other and there was a difference between men and women, they exchanged a brief greeting and parted ways.
After leaving that place, Bobo looked at Xu Nian and said, "You've certainly got some skills."
Xu Nian: "Master, this servant was just trying to help you, wasn't I? And Master, your behavior in front of Princess Shi is a bit... a bit too..."
Bobo's gaze towards Xu Nian gradually turned dangerous: "Too what?"
Xu Nian quickly admitted defeat: "It's nothing, Master. You must have misheard me. I didn't say anything."
Bobo sighed. He knew that his performance just now was mediocre, or even terrible, but he had no experience, so it couldn't be blamed on him!
After returning from Tantuo Temple, Jue Luo called Shi Zhenyun to her side.
She sighed and said, "Let it go this time, Mother will find you another one."
There are so many fine young men in the capital; surely there's one suitable for her daughter.
The reason why Lady Jue Luo sighed was because it was the first time she had ever met a potential match, and she felt that such a thing was unlucky.
Shi Zhenyun didn't think anything of it. If the other person didn't come, no matter what the reason was, it just meant that they weren't meant to be.
"Mother, these things are best left to fate, there's no need to rush."
Jue Luo Shi: How could I not be anxious?
After returning home, Bobo thought about things more. He was indeed getting on in years, and he had a good impression of Shi Zhenyun. Moreover, according to the information Xu Nian had gathered, such a person would be suitable to be his wife.
What happened today really provoked him. She's at the prime of her life, and if he continues to hesitate or remain indifferent, he might really regret it later.
