"No." Jiang Wenjing, already dejected, slumped onto the table and answered him in a muffled voice.
She wanted a hero, not a thug.
Li Chuan still had a faint smile on his face.
The girl was too well protected by her family and herself, and she thought too highly of the world. You can't judge a book by its cover, so who knows what kind of person her fourth brother is going to introduce to her?
What if it's a local thug or a hypocrite who looks respectable?
(Shen Shaolin was once again innocently dragged into the fray.)
How could she break off her engagement with a lousy man she'd never met and whose character, family background, and personality she didn't even know?
It seems I really have been spoiling her too much!
"Are you hungry?" A barely perceptible smile flashed in Li Chuan's eyes as he patted her hair and said softly, "I'll take you out to eat."
Jiang Wenjing blinked her long eyelashes, lowered her eyes, and bit her lip. "Brother Chuan, we didn't get engaged because we liked each other. You must have been troubled by this engagement, right?"
Actually, this question had been bothering her for a long time, but she had never asked it. However, after seeing Yao Yao and Si's expressions of emotion for the people they liked, she suddenly felt a stronger urge to ask this question.

After thinking about their relationship carefully for the first time, Jiang Wenjing realized that they were at most neighbors, like brother and sister. Moreover, as far back as she could remember, Brother Chuan had always been by her side, like family, inseparable.
But even if they get married in the future, will he... really not regret it?
"Even if I don't date, does Brother Chuan really think we should continue like this?" Jiang Wenjing asked curiously. "Brother Chuan, our parents' families have made an agreement that we should get married when we reach a certain age. Have you never questioned it? Or have you never thought about rebelling?"
