Ke Xin knew that someone came to her house today to propose marriage, but her mother didn't say that she had arranged a marriage for her.
Compared with Ke Xin's calmness, Jiang Hui was confused. Although the girl had a bad reputation, she would never allow anyone to tarnish her reputation. As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Hui reached out his hand.
He grabbed the man's collar and stopped his fist right in front of him, the muscles on his neck bulging with ferocity. "I'll give you one more chance to speak like a human being. Tell me who your fiancée is."
Gao Hai patted Jiang Hui's hand that was holding his collar without any fear and said, "I'm Gao Hai, a scholar from Lingjia Village. This morning, the matchmaker and I went to the Jiang family to propose marriage. So, Ke Xin is my fiancée."
Jiang Hui was stunned. He was not at home this morning because he had gone out to buy a big jar. When he came back, he heard that a matchmaker had come to his house, but he did not hear about the girl's engagement.
He slowly retracted his fist, but did not let go of the hand that was grabbing his collar. He turned his head and looked at the girl: "Jiu'er~"
Ke Xin jumped off the ox cart, took a step forward, looked at Gao Hai, and looked him up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.
He was a little over 1.7 meters tall, with a fair complexion, but he had the delicate aura of a scholar. He was so thin and frail that he looked like he could be blown away by the wind. He was wearing a silver-white cotton robe and a jade pendant around his waist. He had a lot of magazines. Not to mention how ugly he was, but the pair of eyes staring at her with a possessiveness in them made her unbearable.
Ke Xin: “You…”
"Where did this lecher come from? He molested a decent woman in public. He should be beaten with ten sticks at least."
Liu Feiyang interrupted Ke Xin and stood beside her, looking down at Gao Hai with disdain in his eyes: "You are just a scholar, but how can you speak and act without knowing the rules of propriety, righteousness, and integrity? You are really bringing shame to scholars."
Jiang Hui: .....
What's going on? The scholar hasn't figured it out yet, and here comes another person to watch the fun. He doesn't even think it's a big deal, but he likes the idea of being beaten with ten boards.
Gao Hai didn't recognize the man in front of him, but judging by his attire, he must be from a wealthy family. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who is this young master?"
Liu Feiyang sneered: "You don't deserve to know."
Ke Xin felt a bit of a headache. She pulled Liu Feiyang behind her and faced Gao Hai with a calm expression. "My mother told me about Master Gao and the matchmaker coming to our house today, but that's just talk, no marriage has been decided. It's not in accordance with the rules for Master Gao to introduce me to your friend like that, and it will ruin my reputation."
"Secondly, I solemnly inform you that I have not agreed to this marriage, so I have no relationship with you, not even an acquaintance."
Gao Hai frowned. "Miss Jiang, since ancient times, marriages are decided by parents and by matchmakers. And when I mentioned it today, Madam Jiang didn't refuse. How come we have no relationship?"
Intellectuals are so annoying, they only know how to quibble over words.
Ke Xin sneered, "If my mother agrees to this marriage, may I ask, do you have an engagement token? Or have you paid the betrothal gifts? Or have you exchanged engagement letters?"
Her question left Gao Hai speechless. If his family had even a penny, why would they have come to Mrs. Ke's house to propose marriage? If it weren't for her family's thriving business at the docks, he wouldn't have even glanced at such a sarcastic person.
After a long silence, without him saying a single word, Liu Feiyang sneered, "You don't have any of that, and yet you still dare to claim to be Miss Jiang's fiancé. You're so shameless you can't even find him even if you throw him on the ground."
Faced with Ke Xin's question, Gao Hai endured it because he really had not paid any betrothal gifts, but faced with the deliberate provocation of the man in front of him, he could not tolerate it.
"Who are you to Miss Jiang? What qualifications do you have to speak for her? I can't find my face if I throw it on the ground. Do you think you can find it?"
What the hell, calling him shameless in a roundabout way.
In the past, people would curse in secret, but today someone was cursing in public. Liu Feiyang's face immediately turned gloomy, and the veins on his hands holding the fan bulged.
"I can come to Miss Jiang's house anytime and anywhere. She treats me to delicious food and drinks and always smiles at me. We get along like a family. So, who am I to Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Hui: ....
satisfying:.....
The two were still thinking about Liu Feiyang's words, while Gao Hai on the side had already finished his brain repair. He looked at Jiang Kexin disappointedly, holding his heart and taking a step back: "I didn't expect you to be such a dissolute person, it really disappoints me."
satisfying:.....
"This marriage is over. Remember, it was me who broke off the engagement."
After saying that, Gao Hai staggered back a step, turned around and ran away. The young man with him was also stunned. When he came to his senses, Gao Hai had already run away. He waved and chased after her: "Gao Hai...wait for me, it's better not to have such a slutty woman."
satisfying:.....
It's such a pity that Gao Hai is not an actor. Looking at her staggering and sad look, she almost thought she was a female sea king and broke the heart of a lovesick man.
We haven't even gotten engaged yet, so how can we talk about breaking off the engagement?
But what about Liu Feiyang?
Ke Xin stared at Liu Feiyang with her eyebrows raised, her eyes filled with danger. Liu Feiyang smiled awkwardly, touching his nose and said, "When I went to your house, your parents, grandfather, uncles and aunts did welcome me with smiles and treated me to delicious food and drinks, didn't they?"
Jiang Hui thought for a moment and said, "Indeed."
Liu Feiyang gave Jiang Hui a grateful look: "Our relationship is a partnership. I didn't say it was anything else. Don't think too much."
After solemnly explaining it again, Jiang Hui agreed: "We are partners, nothing else."
