Duan Qingxi was stunned for a moment, then blinked and said, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
"I want to know."
"Of course not!"
If it weren't for finding that stinky fox, she wouldn't bother with Helian Yun.
Helian Yun's face looked extremely ugly, blue, red and purple. He probably didn't expect Duan Qingxi to be so honest.
After a long time, he suppressed his inner displeasure and said, "Since you are not willing to marry me, why... didn't you refuse me in the hall before?"
Duan Qingxi rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, if you don't want to marry me because of this, then I'll tell the emperor later."
She looked as if she was determined to have this marriage with Helian Yun.
Helian Yun was naturally angry. No matter which man heard such words, he would feel uncomfortable.
But how could he be willing to let Duan Qingxi go just like that? !
He lowered his eyes and said, "I just think that since we are going to get married, why can't you try to give yourself to me? If you really have any dissatisfaction with me, you can bring it up. If I really have done something wrong, I will definitely change it."
Duan Qingxi poked the rice with his chopsticks and said, "Actually, I don't have anything against you. It's just that I'm a germaphobe, and I find things that have been used by others disgusting."
Helian Yun suddenly raised his eyes to look at Duan Qingxi, and his heart sank.
What does this mean?
Could it be... that she knew about what happened between him and Zuo Xinya?
But wasn't she dealing with floods and bandits during that time?
He was not in the capital at all, and he had only met with Zuo Xinya secretly a few times, and he did it so secretly, how could she know?
Helian Yun calmed himself down and thought that she was not talking about himself and Zuo Xinya.
"Xi'er, what nonsense are you talking about again? However, since you have no complaints about me, and I am also attracted to you, why don't we... ask for permission to get married soon?"
As he spoke, he reached out and held Duan Qingxi's other hand that was placed on the table.
Duan Qingxi pulled her hand away, looked at him with a half-smile, and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't they say that once the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculates a date, the Emperor will preside over our wedding?"
Helian Yun's eyes darkened. He was not a fool, so he could naturally see that Duan Qingxi had been delaying marrying him.
She is so smart, how could she not understand the emperor's thoughts?
However, Helian Yun did not expose her fault and just smiled and said, "I just feel that Xi'er is such a good person. If I don't marry you back home as soon as possible, what if someone snatches you away? We will get married sooner or later anyway, so why not get married sooner? Maybe in a year or two, we can have a child..."
Don’t women all like children?
After hearing what he said, Duan Qingxi would be somewhat moved, right?
Just thinking about Duan Qingxi being pregnant with his child and having a few more little kids in the palace, Helian Yun's eyes softened.
Maybe this is not bad...
Duan Qingxi had no idea what he was thinking. She just felt that Helian Yun was preoccupied, otherwise why would he always urge her to get married?
She said, "It's better to listen to the emperor's wishes. Besides, you know that my relationship with my father and brother has just eased, and then I went to deal with the flood. We didn't have much time to spend together. After marrying you, I will focus on you and the palace. I have no right to interfere in my family's affairs. Let me stay in the general's mansion for a while."
