Chapter 315: Drunk (3)
“I think everyone Third Aunt knows has been invited.” Shen Miao handed tea to Chen Qiu: “Maybe they admire your style as a major general.”
"Sister, please spare me." Shen Qiu waved his hand: "One is already difficult enough, with so many women, the battlefield is not so scary."
Shen Miao found it a little funny. It was really funny that Shen Qiu treated women like a flood and a beast. But it made sense. Most of the women around Shen Qiu had ulterior motives. The women in the Shen Mansion were not easy to deal with. For a straightforward person like him, it was like a devil's den.
“There are also those who are not that difficult.” Shen Miao tried to comfort him: “When you meet the girl you like in the future, you won’t think so.”
Shen Qiu said nothing, staring at her as if he had seen a ghost. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "Sister, the expression on your face when you said that just now was so much like mother's."
Shen Miao: “…” Thinking about it this way, she actually kind of thought of Shen Qiu as Fu Ming.
She was about to speak when she suddenly heard some noise outside. She exchanged a glance with Shen Qiu and they both went out, only to see someone shouting at the gate: "What's going on with you? I just came to see Shen Miao, let me in!"
Shen Miao was startled: “Feng Anning?”
The man heard Shen Miao's voice and waved at her while being guarded by the guards: "It's me, Shen Miao, tell them to let me go!"
"Let her go." Shen Miao said, "She is the daughter of the Feng family."
After Feng An Ning was released by the two men, he dusted himself off in frustration and angrily said, "What's going on with you? Why are there so many guards outside your yard? I thought you came in because something happened. There are so many people blocking your way outside, Shen Miao, are you sick?"
This was probably the first time Feng An Ning had been stopped by someone, and her temper flared up, she scolded Shen Miao without caring about anything. However, this happened to hit Shen Qiu's sore spot. Shen Qiu stepped forward and glared at her coldly: "Who are you? Yelling and shouting in someone else's house, do you know how to behave?"
Shen Miao: “…” From Shen Qiu’s words about knowing or not knowing etiquette, it is really intriguing.
Unexpectedly being scolded again, Feng Anning looked up, ready to retort, but when she saw Shen Qiu, she couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. Shen Qiu had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was very handsome. Unlike the delicate and effeminate young masters of Dingjing City, his usual warm smile showed innocence, but when his face was stern, he was like a feared major general on the battlefield, with a certain iron-blooded spirit.
Feng Anning's arrogance immediately subsided, and he asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
“This is my eldest brother.” Shen Miao said.
Shen Qiu was somewhat well-known in Dingjing City. Xie in the south and Xin in the north, the young marquis of the Xie family and the young general of the Shen family were often compared to each other. It was a pity that Xie Jingxing refused to join the officialdom, otherwise these two would have been outstanding military generals of their generation.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Miao asked when she saw Feng An Ning was a little embarrassed.
Feng An Ning complained upon hearing this, "I came to talk to you. You know, ever since those people at Guangwen Hall found out about your good relationship with me, they've ostracized me too. Who cares? That's why I came to talk to you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qiu's expression softened slightly. He knew that Shen Miao was rather neglected in the academy, but it was a pity that he was away all year round and couldn't always protect Shen Miao. Now Shen Miao had a friend. Although he was arrogant and didn't know etiquette, he could still make do with him.
Of course, he and Feng An Ning didn’t know that “having a good relationship” was just what Feng An Ning thought. Shen Miao really didn’t have the leisure to make friends with others.
