Chapter 1146: Extra Chapter (2)
Shen Miao was surprised and glanced at Luo Xueyan, who also said, “Yes, Jiaojiao, you should show it to Tan’er.”
“Of course there’s no problem with meeting each other, but…” Shen Miao asked hesitantly, “Cousin, do you really not have anyone you like?”
"With her personality, it's impossible to wait for her to come to her senses." Ma waved her hand, as if she didn't want to talk about it anymore. "If Tan'er was half as knowledgeable as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
Even though they were sisters, Shen Miao had a keen eye for talent. She had already decided on Xie Jingxing, a rare and extraordinary man in the world, at a very young age, and this became a legendary story. After the marriage, she also dominated Xie Jingxing to the point of tying him up. A monarch's harem had no other women besides the Empress, something Shen Miao envied. Furthermore, Xie Jingxing's own conditions were so excellent.
Looking at Luo Tan again, after all these years, let alone marrying a peerless man, there's not even a hint of an ordinary man. Ma and Luo Liantai had imagined that when their daughter grew up, the door would be thronged with suitors, a scene of countless courtships. But now, it's so quiet, not even a single mosquito in sight. It's incredibly frustrating.
“Did cousin Tan agree to the meeting herself?” Shen Miao asked.
"How dare she disagree!" Ma continued, "Jiaojiao, you have a good relationship with her. Please try to persuade her more when you have free time. How can a girl visit brothels all day? She knows all about the gambling houses in Longye. It's really unfortunate for our family."
Luo Tan has such a lively personality and ignores rules and etiquette. He lives a free and easy life, but he is also easily criticized.
Shen Miao answered readily, "Okay, then I'll start keeping an eye on it for my cousin now. But whether it will work or not depends on whether my cousin likes it or not."
"Thank you very much, Jiaojiao." Ma was overjoyed.
…
At night, Shen Miao held the long scroll in her hand and read through it one by one, not falling asleep until late at night.
When Xie Jingxing finished dealing with the memorial and returned to the bedroom, he saw that she was still waiting to read, so he asked, "Didn't I tell you to go to bed first?"
“There are some things I haven’t finished reading.” Shen Miao didn’t even raise her head, her eyes still glued to the scroll.
Xie Jingxing came over and took a look. He saw that on each page of the scroll, there was a small portrait of a man. Next to the portrait was the man's name, family background, official position, and even his hobbies and strengths.
Xie Jingxing closed the scroll and asked, "What are you looking at this for?"
“Get out of the way.” Shen Miao snatched the scroll back from his hand: “My aunt asked me to find some reliable people to look after Cousin Tan. Don’t interrupt.”
"Luo Tan?" Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows: "She's getting married?"
"Auntie is very worried about this, it's all easy to do." Shen Miao suddenly thought of something and looked at Xie Jingxing: "Speaking of which, what exactly does Gao Yang mean?"
"What do you mean?" Xie Jingxing was puzzled.
"To Cousin Tan." Shen Miao looked at him: "I see that he likes Cousin Tan, but he doesn't seem to say anything. If we wait for Cousin Tan to figure it out herself, I'm afraid she won't figure it out in this lifetime. Cousin Tan doesn't understand. Gao Yang is a smart man. What's the meaning of him dragging it out like this?"
Xie Jingxing frowned and said thoughtfully: "Does Gao Yang like Luo Tan?"
Shen Miao poked him with her arm: “Are you blind?”
"How do I know what Gao Yang is thinking?" Xie Jingxing felt aggrieved.
He was very knowledgeable about his own affairs, but was extremely slow to react when it came to the lifelong affairs of his close friends. Shen Miao could see that Xie Jingxing was also a clueless person, so she didn't bother to ask him.
