Before Sun Congwan left, she came in to say goodbye to her. Yi Ning waited until she left before grabbing the arm of her third brother who had just walked in and said to him, "I think Miss Sun is not bad, she's very beautiful."
She was so close to him that his arms seemed to feel her curves.
Luo Shenyuan asked her to sit down on the round stool. He sighed and said, "I have no interest in Miss Sun."
Yi Ning was a little surprised when she heard his words. Weren't they about to get married? Why did he no longer have any interest in Miss Sun? If he really didn't have any interest in her, why didn't he refuse?
"From what I heard from Lord Sun, he wants you to get married." Yi Ning said, "Miss Sun has been waiting for you. If you don't like her, you should have rejected her long ago—"
Luo Shenyuan waved his hand and said, "I know my limits." Marrying Sun Congwan would definitely benefit him, and she was indeed a good match for him. At the time, he had tacitly agreed to his father's actions. However, he later had inappropriate thoughts and desires, which delayed the marriage.
How could he have any sense of propriety?
Yi Ning frowned. She didn't like him always being like this. Actually, they were all like this. No one knew what they were thinking or planning. They might have schemes in mind, but no one knew what they were plotting. He was like this, and so was Lu Jiaxue. Perhaps this was the scheming nature of someone in a position of power.
Yi Ning suddenly thought of a possibility, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "You—could it be that you like...that Second Miss Xie?"
Luo Shenyuan sneered inwardly at this and stood up. The light of the setting sun shone through the lattice window into the room. Yi Ning, wearing a light yellow jacket with a persimmon-pattern pattern, was slender and indeed petite compared to him. The setting sun shone on her wrists, delicate and white, seemingly fragile. She was truly afraid that she would lose control... and do something.
In fact, he knew he shouldn't have brought her back. It was dangerous to keep her by his side, and she kept making him more and more anxious.
Luo Shenyuan leaned over and said to her, "I don't like anyone, so stop guessing."
Yi Ning stared into his deep, pool-like eyes, feeling as if she couldn't move. She could only smell his scent and see his clear, handsome face. No wonder so many people liked him... She didn't come back to her senses until Luo Shenyuan had already walked out.
Songzhi brought in a plate of lychees and said to her, "Miss, this is what the Third Young Master had prepared for you. It's just been shipped over from southern Fujian..." She looked up and saw Yining, a little surprised, "Why are you blushing? Is it too hot without the windows open?"
Yi Ning subconsciously touched her face. It felt a bit hot, so she nodded and said, "...It's a bit stuffy, let's open the window and get some fresh air."
