Then, to his astonishment, that frightening face slowly transformed into its usual gentle smile as it walked slowly towards the boy in front of it, step by step.
The movement was like a venomous snake slowly approaching its prey, silently coiling around and devouring it until there was nowhere left to escape.
He's gone mad! Luo Cheng had never been so clearly aware that Li Meng was a madman, a madman who didn't care about his own life, and that he was consciously doing all sorts of crazy things.
"Young Master Qin has come to the hunting grounds, why didn't you greet me? And who is this?" Li Meng stepped forward, his tall figure looming over the young man sitting below. He moved closer to the young man intimately, looking at An Jinghe with a forced smile.
Qingyin frowned slightly at Li Meng's sudden approach and said coldly, "Stay away from me."
The rejected man stiffened instinctively. He had thought that Miaomiao had developed some feelings for him after spending these past few days together, but when he saw the indifference in the boy's eyes, he felt a chill in his heart. However, he did not show any disappointment in front of his rival. He still smiled and continued to do the same thing as before, but he moved a step away from the young master.
An Jinghe silently observed the atmosphere between the two, and felt a little strange looking at the man who had suddenly arrived.
Miao Miao was alright, but this man seemed to be a good friend of hers. However, why did he look at her with such hostility? An Jinghe instinctively disliked and loathed the man who had suddenly appeared.
Once everyone had distanced themselves, Qingyin briefly introduced An Jinghe to Li Meng.
"This is Miss An Jinghe, the eldest daughter of General An Kui, and this is Li Meng from the Left Prime Minister's family."
The two exchanged a forced smile, saw the hostility in each other's eyes, and then turned to look at Qingyin at the same time.
It was only at this moment that Qingyin noticed Luo Cheng slowly walking over.
He frowned, too lazy to explain a second time, so a hint of annoyance appeared on his face. Having spent so many days with Qingyin, Li Meng knew Qingyin quite well, and he could tell from her expression that she was annoyed.
He preemptively addressed An Jinghe, saying, "This is Luo Cheng."
He then casually pointed at the woman and said to Luo Cheng, "An Jinghe."
A perfunctory attitude is enough.
An Jinghe frowned, looking at the extremely annoying man in front of him. How could anyone be so hateful? An Jinghe thought, then glanced at Qingyin who was fishing seriously. The difference between people is really huge. There are always some fools living in this world who cause trouble for others.
Luo Cheng glanced at An Jinghe and Li Meng, who were in a hostile atmosphere, and didn't dare to speak up about his previous idea of talking to Qingyin.
In the eerie atmosphere, Qingyin fished a whole bucketful of fish all afternoon.
The fishing trip was finally over when "Air Force Expert" An Jinghe was given a big fish and Li Meng a fish.
After today, An Jinghe came to see Qingyin more often.
The capital city also learned of the hot news that Miss An from General An Kui's mansion was pursuing Young Master Qin Miao from General Qin Yi's mansion.
The common people were mostly just watching the show and didn't object much, but the young ladies and gentlemen of the capital were not happy about it.
Because of this incident, General Qin sent over a flood of invitations for flower viewing banquets and other events, but Qingyin had no interest in them.
However, Mrs. Dong was overjoyed by her son's popularity and attended several banquets like a butterfly to show off her son.
Qin Yi couldn't help but frown, his eyes darkening as he looked at the popular Qin Miao.
Especially when he saw his familiar rival An Kui come to his door and say, "My daughter is quite beautiful, she would be a good match for your son, wouldn't she? We are both military officers, so we have things to talk about. Why don't we arrange a marriage between our two families?"
Qin Yi looked at the unshaven man opposite him with a cold smile, "Heh, my son is still young, it's not suitable, so there's no need."
An Kui's eyes widened: "Why is it not suitable? Look, my daughter is only three years older than your son. As the saying goes, 'A woman three years older brings good fortune,' isn't this perfect?"
"Qin Yi, you're not exactly an honest man, isn't this perfect? Besides, both families' children are willing, so let's get engaged. Oh, it's not easy to talk to a roughneck like you, let's call your wife out and talk!"
Qin Yi raised his eyes and said coldly, "Are the two children willing?"
"Yes, my daughter already told me." It's just that his daughter was anxious and came to his house to ask first.
Qin Yi stopped talking, letting the bear-like man in front of him chatter on and on. He kept replaying the man's earlier statement that the two of them were willing in his mind, and the cold light in his eyes grew deeper and deeper.
When Madam Dong arrived after being reminded by her servants, she saw her husband sitting in his original seat with a cold expression, while General An Kui was chattering away.
Madam Dong was startled by Qin Yi's completely different demeanor, but the next second his demeanor changed, and her husband went from being indifferent to his usual gentleness. Madam Dong looked at the scene in confusion, and was interrupted by An Kui's voice. While listening to General An Kui's words, Madam Dong couldn't help but think that she must have seen it wrong.
An Kui did not notice the subtle tension between the couple. When he saw the matriarch of General Qin's mansion arrive, he repeated what he had just said to Qin Yi to Madam Dong.
Madam Dong took her son's marriage very seriously, especially after hearing that it was something her son and the girl had already agreed upon. A smile constantly appeared on her face as she looked gently at General An Kui and said, "Oh dear, my Miao'er is too shy to tell me. If I had known, she would have come first..."
"lady!"
Madam Dong's words were interrupted mercilessly by Qin Yi the next second.
Mrs. Dong turned her head in surprise to look at her husband.
Qin Yi's face was already cold as he said to Madam Dong, "Madam, Miao'er is still too young. I do not agree to this marriage."
These words were utterly merciless, instantly extinguishing all of Madam Dong's newly brewed joy, leaving her only bewilderment and a sense of panic that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Mrs. Dong's panic was so obvious that anyone could easily see it.
But Qin Yi had no mood or desire to coax this woman he had raised like a dodder vine.
Without looking at her again, he said to An Kui, "Let's drop this matter and see the guest out," and then turned and left.
An Kui, somewhat flustered, thought his affair had ruined the couple's relationship, while Madam Dong was left feeling lost.
An Kui looked around at the heartbroken Mrs. Dong and her future in-laws, stammered a few words of comfort, and then hurriedly left.
Qingyin was unaware of what had happened in the front yard. He sat in the yard arranging the flowers that An Jinghe had brought, a faint smile on his lips. An Jinghe was also a silly girl who didn't know how to pursue people. She had somehow learned all the methods men use to pursue women and applied them to him.
