Chapter 1105 My Mother Agreed
Shen Shan used to be a person who paid great attention to his appearance, but he really couldn't take care of it these days, and now he looks unshaven.
Seeing Zheng Ruoxi, his eyes dodged for a moment, but he quickly smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Zheng."
Zheng Ruoxi smiled and handed him the chopsticks, "Eat quickly."
It was dinner time, so naturally everyone else went to the kitchen to get their meals, leaving Shen Shan alone to enjoy the home-cooked meals.
"Miss Zheng, have you had your meal yet?" Shen Shan asked politely.
Zheng Ruoxi replied simply, "I have eaten, but I can eat some more now."
Shen Shan paused as he was picking up the food, then took an empty bowl from the food box—this bowl was originally used to hold soup—and handed it to Zheng Ruoxi, saying, "Then Miss Zheng, sit down and eat some too."
The Shen family would never bring just one pair of chopsticks when delivering food, otherwise Zheng Ruoxi might have to borrow chopsticks from the kitchen.
Zheng Ruoxi didn't be polite to him. She was not the kind of person who would be shy, especially since this was the person she liked.
The two of them ate very quickly, but their movements were in line with Shengjing's dining style.
After finishing the meal, Shen Shan packed up the food box and thanked her, "I haven't eaten home-cooked meals for a long time. Thank you Miss Zheng for making this trip."
"Why are you hiding from me?" Zheng Ruoxi suddenly asked.
Shen Shan's hand movement paused, and he continued quickly, lowering his eyes and opening his mouth, "Oh, Miss Zheng, why do you say that?"
"You started avoiding me when I was still at Shen Ji. This time in the army, I saw you many times and wanted to call you, but you always avoided me. Once or twice, I thought it was a coincidence, but it happened so many times that even a fool can see it."
Zheng Ruoxi was a straightforward and honest person. In the past, Madam Zheng was always afraid that she would suffer losses, so she asked her to pretend to be a noble lady in public.
But she didn't want to pretend in front of Shen Shan, she wanted him to see her true self.
Shen Shan smiled bitterly to himself, he was still discovered.
But he had been broken up on and had fallen in love with another woman. He was not worthy of her sincere and emotional love.
"Miss Zheng," Shen Shan had no choice but to look up and look at her directly, "Thank you for your kindness, but I cannot accept your feelings. You deserve someone better."
Zheng Ruoxi was anxious, "But I don't like others, I only like you!"
"Miss, be careful with your words," Shen Shan reminded, "I am already past the age of liking someone, this is unfair to you."
Zheng Ruoxi tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said "Oh" as if she had thought of something, "Are you afraid that my parents will not agree?"
Shen Shan sighed and shook his head.
Zheng Ruoxi suddenly smiled, her eyes curved. "Don't worry, my mother agreed! My father never objected."
Her mother had some concerns before, but since the Hubei Northern Army began to attack Chenzhou, her mother no longer opposed it.
Especially since the Sixth Miss and His Highness got engaged a few days ago, although her mother sighed a few times, she no longer stopped her from asking about the Shen family.
Just like asking her to help deliver food to Shen Shan today, if it were in the past, her mother would definitely stop her.
Her words made Shen Shan say no, and after a long time, he said with difficulty: "I have broken off the engagement."
Breaking off an engagement is not a good thing for either man or woman, but the bad thing is that he once had deep feelings for his ex-fiancée.
"What's the big deal? I've retreated before!" Zheng Ruoxi didn't care. She looked him over several times. "Do you have any other reasons?"
She had heard that if a man had problems in some aspects, he would also reject the advances of a girl. She wondered if the Third Young Master was
