Su Zhihui swallowed nervously and wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
It's not me, how could she say such a thing?
He stammered and began to explain, "Chen Qi'an, no, I didn't mean that. I just said it wrong, yes, I said it wrong."
Watching her change from a nervous expression to a confident one, Shen Qi'an chuckled softly. Did she think that she was a dignified lady from a wealthy family?
Su Zhihui became even more nervous when she saw him smile, "Do you believe it or not?"
Shen Qi'an couldn't bear to see her being so cautious, so he nodded, "I believe Miss Su just made a slip of the tongue."
Su Zhihui nodded, "Yes, yes, it was just a slip of the tongue, don't take it to heart."
"Okay, I'll pretend I didn't hear it. Do you mind if I ask Miss Su a question?"
Seeing the faint smile on his lips, Su Zhihui nodded without thinking and agreed, "Okay, ask!"
"Miss Su, what do you think your personality is like?"
Su Zhihui was stunned, obviously not expecting him to ask such a question. Could it be that she had revealed her true identity in front of him? That shouldn't be the case, right?!
She straightened her expression, as if the person who just sniffed out was not her, and did not forget to give him a look.
Shen Qi'an really couldn't help it this time. He clenched his fist and put it to his mouth to hide his smile, but his shoulders were shaking obviously.
The blush that had just faded from Su Zhihui's face slowly climbed up her cheeks again. She had done something stupid again.
No, why do I always make a fool of myself in front of him? Obviously, no one else is like this.
She had several embarrassments in one day and was so embarrassed that she wanted to leave. However, she remembered the purpose of today and gritted her teeth. Since it had come to this, it would be okay to make a fool of herself again.
"So what do you think I am like?"
Shen Qi'an coughed lightly and suppressed his smile, fearing that he would annoy the girl in front of him.
"I think Miss Su is very nice and has a lively and cheerful personality."
Su Zhihui slowly lowered her head under his gaze. What did he just say?
Lively and cheerful?
Isn't this the type he said he likes?
Does that mean he is also interested in me?
Su Zhihui always uses her brain where it’s needed.
"Is that so?"
Su Zhihui felt her face getting redder and redder, she stood up hurriedly and walked out the door, then remembered that she hadn't given the things yet, so she turned around, took out the purse from her sleeve, and stuffed it into Shen Qi'an's hand.
"I embroidered this myself. If you don't want it, let my eldest brother bring it back to me."
…
Chen Li and Su Heng met unexpectedly at the door of the teahouse.
“Miss Shen, why are you here?”
"Master Su, what a coincidence."
The two greeted each other at the same time, and then asked their own questions.
Su Heng had a warm smile on his face. "I just saw my sister come in from the library, so I came to see her. What about you?"
"My fourth brother is here too."
Su Heng nodded, "Then let's start looking for someone first and talk later."
"good."
Not long after, the two stood at the door of the tea room looking at each other. Before they could speak, the door was opened from the inside, and an awkward atmosphere lingered in this small space.
"Brother, why are you here?"
"Ali, you're here too!"
When Shen Qi'an heard her call him "Brother", he immediately put away his purse and walked behind her.
At this time, Dong Shuang came over with snacks. When she saw the scene at the door, she was also shocked. At the same time, she was worried about the young lady.
Although the lady didn't tell her what she was going to do, she probably guessed it.
Now, seeing the young master's dark face, he looked at his young lady worriedly.
Shen Qi'an opened the door a little wider, "Brother Su, Ah Qing, come in and talk."
"good."
The four of them sat at the table, no one spoke, and Chen Li had already roughly figured out what was going on.
I didn’t expect Ah Hui to have such a high execution rate. I just told her yesterday not to miss it, and wow, she took action today. She is definitely a person of action.
However, he never expected that this person would be his fourth brother. Why didn't she notice any signs of connection between the two of them before?
Now, it is estimated that as soon as the window paper was poked, he was caught by the other brother and gave his fourth brother a sympathetic look.
Shen Qi'an was also helpless. He had never guessed what Su Zhihui would say to him today, because he felt that with his current status, the Su family's parents might not agree to let their daughter marry down. It would only be possible after she graduated from high school.
At the same time, he was secretly worried that Su Zhihui was not young anymore, and he was afraid that one day her parents would suddenly arrange a marriage for her.
Unexpectedly, Brother Su saw it just by poking a little bit into the window paper.
"Brother Su, today's matter..."
“Brother, I just happened to meet Fourth Brother Shen, so I invited him to have tea, that’s all, don’t think too much about it.”
Su Heng didn't believe his sister's self-righteous look, because she looked like this every time she did something wrong, trying to get away with it.
But, never mind, let me go back first.
"Well, big brother knows, do you still want to drink tea? If not, we will go back first."
Su Zhihui didn't want to stay here anymore, it was too embarrassing.
"Okay, then go back, Ali. I'll come find you another day."
After the Su brothers and sisters walked away, Shen Li asked, "Fourth brother, what are you doing?"
Shen Qi'an pinched his eyebrows and said, "I like her, Ah Li, do you think I can marry her?"
Su Zhihui, who was about to reach out to open the door, was stunned when she heard this. Then she clenched the thing in her hand and turned and ran away. It would be better to give this thing to Ali another day.
Chen Li noticed the movement outside the door, but Chen Qi'an didn't know that Su Zhihui had heard what he said.
Chen Li spoke frankly: "Fourth brother, judging from the current situation of our family, we are not worthy of the Su family's status.
Shen Qi'an nodded, "I know, so I never thought of expressing this feeling."
I had no intention of telling my family. What good would that do? It would only cause more trouble.
He never thought of using his younger sister's status as King Jingnan to make this marriage happen.
"But," Shen Li smiled at her fourth brother, "it's not completely impossible."
"Big brother has joined the army now. With his abilities, it's not difficult for him to get an official position. As long as you work harder, it's possible."
Shen Qi'an pondered for a while, and it was indeed as his younger sister said, it was not impossible, but it would take time.
"Ali, do you think the Su family will agree? Can they wait?"
Chen Li shook her head, "I don't know about this. It all depends on Ah Hui's feelings and whether the Su family loves their daughter."
She couldn't act like a bandit and put a knife to the necks of other people's parents and force them to marry their daughter. That wouldn't be marriage, it would be enmity.
Shen Qi'an was not too disappointed. After all, he had already prepared himself mentally. "Ali, let's go back. I still have to read."
