Chapter 64 Visiting the Mansion

"Oh, I know." She answered sullenly.

...She knows nothing.

She is clearly relying on the fact that he likes her and is fearless. She

is thinking about other men in her heart, but she doesn't allow him to say it. If he does, she will break off the engagement with him out of anger. She

is clearly a child!

Shen Yan frowned, his face was not very good. Just as he was about to continue talking to her, he heard a solemn voice calling his name.

He took a last look at her and reminded her again: "Don't do anything stupid."

Then he hurried over there.

This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you. Ning Yuan chased after Shen Yan's back and saw that there was an old minister standing in front of him. Because Shen Yan was too tall, he covered most of the old minister's appearance, and she couldn't recognize who he was for a while.

The old minister had a rather intimidating demeanor, as if he was scolding him.

Shen Yan had a sullen face, as if he would storm out at any moment.

She rarely saw him stupefied, and even though she couldn't hear what they were saying, she still watched with interest.

Pei Zixing had walked up to her and knocked on her desk without her knowing.

"Miss Ning."

Ning Yuan retracted her gaze, raised her eyes to look at him, and asked casually, "Brother Pei, why are you back?"

In fact, she had told Pei Zixing many times that he didn't need to be so polite, and that he could call her Yuanyuan, but he would still call her that in front of others.

"The competition is over, and I won the prize."

He slightly suppressed the excitement in his tone and shared his joy with her, but she didn't react to his words.

He followed her gaze and caught a glimpse of Shen Yan standing in the corner.

"Are you looking at Zhiyu?"

Ning Yuan then realized that she had been looking at him again for some reason. She retracted her gaze again and said awkwardly, "No, I was just looking around and happened to see him."

"Brother Pei, what did you say just now?"

Pei Zixing did not repeat what he had just said, and explained to her as if he had seen through her thoughts, "That was Old Master Shen."

No wonder.

Ning Yuan looked clear.

She was still wondering who was so brave that Shen Yan could keep silent.

If he was scolded by his father, it would not be surprising.

But why did his father scold him?

Could it be that he didn't want him to talk to him?

It's very likely.

Although their families are a good match, I heard that Mr. Shen always looked down on those who only cared about their colleagues and not their families.

He probably didn't like her father, and he also disliked her, so it was normal for him to oppose what they said.

But it was not what Ning Yuan thought.

Mr. Shen said in a deep voice: "I heard from others that you have been very close to the girl from the Ning family recently. At first I didn't believe it. I thought you shouldn't be such an ignorant person. Today I saw that it was true!"

Shen Yan said impatiently: "How can I be ignorant of etiquette?"

"You have been dragging your feet and not going to the Ning Mansion to propose marriage. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking."

He wanted to go a long time ago, okay?

The reason why he hasn't gone until now is because she refused again and again.

Shen Yan was silent.

Old Master Shen continued, "If you don't like her, don't hinder her future and keep your distance from her."

"I heard that when my mother admired you, you ignored her."

"Since you don't like her, why don't you just keep your distance from her?"

Shen Yan asked back.

"...I'm not indifferent to your mother, I'm just young and immature." Old Master Shen glanced at Ning Yuan and said, "I think she and the boy from the Pei family are a good match."

Shen Yan also looked back and saw her looking up and talking to Zixing, with the embarrassment of a little girl.

"I'm afraid your eyesight is not very good." He said unhappily.

"...Try to say it to me again?"

"I'm afraid your eyesight is not very good."

"It's obviously me who is the best match for her."

Shen Yan repeated stubbornly.

"...What do you mean by that?"

"I like her, I want to marry her and live with her forever."

Shen Yan blurted out.

He pursed his lips. It was the first time for him to speak his mind. He did not feel embarrassed, but rather happy.

This made Old Master Shen lose his temper immediately.

"Are you serious?"

Shen Yan said "hmm" softly.

"Have you told her this?"

Shen Yan shook his head.

Old Master Shen raised his hand and pointed behind him: "Why didn't you tell her earlier?"

He actually had a plan.

But he was unwilling to tell anyone before it was done.

After all, things should be done in secrecy.

Shen Yan remained silent for a moment, and imitated his words: "I was just young and immature before."

Old Master Shen blew his beard in anger: "...Then you continue to be immature, and she will be with someone else by then, don't regret it."

After saying that, he turned away.

Shen Yan looked back, but saw that Ning Yuan's seat was vacant again, and even Pei Zixing was nowhere to be found.

He panicked for a moment, and just wanted to look for her, but saw a palace maid coming to him and said: "Your Majesty has something to talk to you."

...Well, although he didn't know what Zixing would say to her, if she had something in mind, he would still know.

He couldn't stop her from talking to Zixing for the rest of her life.

Time went back to a cup of tea.

Pei Zixing invited Ning Yuan to go out for a walk. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Shen Yan and said, "It's probably Uncle Shen who is scolding him about marriage again."

Ning Yuan groaned and said, "Does he always do this?"

Pei Zixing nodded and said, "Yes. Since you came of age, Uncle Shen has been urging him to go to Ning Mansion to propose marriage to you."

This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you "Always?" Ning Yuan frowned, "So he was unwilling at first?"

She always thought that Shen Yan was deeply in love with her, but later she felt that he might just be physically compatible with her and didn't really like her.

Hearing this, her heart sank even more.

The guess was verified.

Sure enough, Shen Yan had repeatedly announced that he wanted to marry her, just because his family urged him to get married.

Pei Zixing thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. He may not have known his own heart at first."

"You don't have to speak well of him." Ning Yuan said gloomily.

He didn't like her.

"When I was at home, my family always urged me to get married."

"Everyone will feel annoyed after hearing too much, but this annoyance is directed at the nagging of the elders, not you." This book is exclusively compiled for you by the LK team. Ning Yuan calculated that Pei Zixing was actually older than them. If she followed the arrangements of her family to get married and have children, the children would probably call her aunt.

"Brother Pei, is it because you haven't met the girl you like that you haven't married yet?"

Pei Zixing pursed his lips and said truthfully: "Not entirely."

Ning Yuan turned to look at him in surprise and said: "So, you have a girl you like? Then you said you could be responsible for me..."

When Ning Yuan met his serious look, she was stunned.

She was not a naive girl who didn't know the world. She understood something immediately and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

She lowered her head, feeling a little confused.

Since he didn't point it out, she pretended not to know.

"You are such a nice person, the girl will definitely like you very much."

Pei Zixing smiled and said frankly: "But she already has someone she likes, and I have no intention of changing her mind."

"Life is nothing more than an experience. Heartbeat is an experience, and miss is also an experience. My relationship is very happy and I have no regrets." "

What about you?" He looked at Ning Yuan, "If you have regrets, why don't you be braver?"

In fact, those who are familiar with her and Shen Yan can all see their thoughts, but those who are in the game are confused, and those who are watching can see clearly.

She and Shen Yan, one is too sober, and the other is too cautious.

The sober one dares not think too much, nor dares to dig deep into the hidden love, for fear that he will fall into it, but hears the other party say that it is just kindness.

But the cautious ones just think too much, fearing that after piercing this layer of window paper, they will break up and ultimately fail to achieve a happy ending.

But if you don't try, how do you know if it will be a happy ending?

None of these two people can really let it go, and they have to rely on him, the mature elder brother.

Ning Yuan lowered her head and did not answer.

The sunlight cast a faint shadow under her eyelashes.

Pei Zixing's words were imprinted in her heart, and she couldn't help but think of the lonely white shadow like the moon and the faint cold fragrance.

She thought, Brother Pei was right, she might really like Shen Yan a little.

But it is true that he wants to marry her, and it is also true that he doesn't like her.

She has known Shen Yan for many years, but she seems to have never really understood him. She only knows that he is a good man with a bottom line, but he will also use some extraordinary means to achieve his goals.

Therefore, in order to marry her to deal with his family, he would deliberately treat her well and would unintentionally deceive her.

Maybe he was not trying to fool himself at all.

Life is nothing more than an experience, with all kinds of ups and downs, sorrows and joys.

She has experienced heartbeats, anger, compatibility, and mistakes. She has gained a lot from this relationship.

Anyway, she is going to leave, so why not put a perfect end to it.

She pursed her lips and said sincerely: "Thank you, Brother Pei, I know what to do."

"That's good."

Seeing that she has come to her senses, Pei Zixing smiled at her, feeling some inexplicable relief and relief in his heart.

The two turned back together.

Although they were far apart, Ning Yuan's eyes were still involuntarily attracted to Shen Yan.

But he only glanced at her indifferently, then looked away, busying himself. From time to time, someone came to ask him for instructions, but he still gave instructions indifferently, as if nothing in the world could move his mood.

Ning Yuan retracted her gaze.

She had seen very clearly since she was a child that all human unwillingness came from unsatisfied desires.

Desire for power, desire for status, desire for wealth, and even desire to be loved.

But she didn't have any great desires, just being able to spend every day in peace.

Why think too much.

She said goodbye to Pei Zixing and returned to her position.

Pei Zixing walked towards Shen Yan, put his arm around his shoulder enthusiastically, and whispered to him: "Brother, I have done you a great favor!"

Shen Yan frowned slightly, looked at him, and said with a little doubt in his tone: "...Are you sure you are not doing more harm than good?"

"How could it be!"

Shen Yan said seriously: "I don't want to break off the engagement with her anymore, do you know that?"

"You are finally willing to admit it? I am not stupid, how can I not see it? Don't worry!" He said confidently.

Shen Yan looked at him suspiciously.

How could this be different from the voice of his heart that he heard?

*

No matter what, Shen Yan decided to take the initiative. He went to find Ning Yuan with gifts the next morning after returning home, not to give her a chance to mess around.

But since he had to meet her and talk about something so serious, he needed to maintain a good mental state.

Shen Yan went to bed very early that night.

Who would have thought that Ning Yuan also thought so.

Unfortunately, she couldn't sleep, so she got up in the middle of the night, counted the banknotes, and wrote a letter of breaking off the engagement with earnest words, planning to go to Mr. Shen in person tomorrow.

She put the paper inside the letter and lay back on the bed again, but unfortunately, she couldn't sleep because she was thinking about this matter, so she dressed up before dawn, called a carriage and waited in front of the Shen Mansion.

Shen Yan woke up early and heard Ming Jue say happily: "Young Master, you're awake!"

"I have good news for you, Miss Ning has been waiting in front of the mansion for a long time!"

Shen Yan immediately frowned and said: "... Good for you."

She was still one step ahead of him.

"Go to the mansion to stop her and invite her to my place." He ordered.

Then she got up in a hurry and went to look for her favorite one among the pile of white clothes.

She hadn't seen her father yet, so it was not too late.

When he had tied his belt, Mingjue came over happily again.

He looked behind him, but didn't see the graceful figure.

"Where is she?" he said with a gloomy face.

"I'll tell you another piece of good news! You didn't expect it, did you? Miss Ning didn't plan to see you at all. She went straight to find the old man!"

"I'll tell you a piece of good news, too." He gritted his teeth and said, "You're not far from death."

"Now that things have come to this, don't hide it from me."

"Miss Ning always acts unexpectedly. She must be planning to express her feelings for you to the old man!"

"General Pei has already told me quietly. She said in person that she wants to be brave for once!"

Shen Yan strode out of the room and left a sentence: "You'd better pray that she hasn't walked into the main hall yet."

Mingjue glanced at him happily.

Oh, pretending to be so upset, aren't you really happy in your heart?
