While Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao were busy dealing with the people in power, Xu Qingchen was not efficient at all. Mo Xiuyao finally found his conscience and realized that he had not handled the matter properly this time. It was very rare for him to take over Young Master Qingchen's previous work so that Young Master Qingchen could concentrate on dealing with a certain woman. Within a few days, almost the entire Ding Wang fu knew that there was a young lady who was chasing after Young Master Qing Chen and wanted to marry him. It was a pity that Young Master Qing Chen did not fancy her and avoided her like the plague.
Mrs. Xu, who was worried about her eldest son's marriage, also heard the news and came. But less than a quarter of an hour after seeing Dongfang You, Mrs. Xu went back in disappointment. In private, she said to Second Madam Xu, "I'd rather Qingchen never marry a wife in his lifetime than let him marry a wife who daydreams all day long and insists on forcing others to be with her."
No matter what the Xu family's attitude was, Dongfang You came to the Prince Ding Mansion every day to ask for Young Master Qingchen's marriage. It became a classic funny story that people in the Prince Ding Mansion must see every day. Some people even began to bet on how long Young Master Qingchen could hold on and whether he would marry Dongfang You.
"Young Master, Miss Dongfang wants to see you." Young Master Qingchen, who rarely had half a day of leisure, heard the guard's report. Looking at the guard's smiling face, Young Master Qingchen, who had always been gentle and elegant, wanted to tear Mo Xiuyao into pieces. Rubbing his eyebrows, Xu Qingchen said, "Tell Miss Dongfang that I'm not here." For the first time in his life, Young Master Qingchen wanted to run away.
The guard looked at him awkwardly and said, "Miss Dongfang said that she knew Young Master Qingchen was in the mansion. If Young Master Qingchen doesn't want to see her, she will wait at the gate and won't leave. Young Master … there are many people watching at the gate. " Xu Qingchen was so angry that he laughed. But on second thought, although these guards wanted to watch the fun, they were indeed in a dilemma. Dongfang You's identity was special. At the very least, before the Prince Ding Mansion investigated the background of Infinite Boundless Mountain, they could not be too forceful with her. Sighing helplessly, Xu Qingchen nodded and said, "Please invite Miss Dongfang in."
The guard took the order and left. Xu Qingyan popped out of the door and looked at Xu Qingchen with a grin. "Big Brother, that Dongfang You came to find you again?"
Xu Qingchen glanced at him indifferently and asked, "If you have nothing to do, go and help me receive the guests. Don't wander around all day with nothing to do. "Xu Qingyan shrunk his neck and looked at Xu Qingchen pitifully. These days, even Big Brother was starting to vent his anger on him. He had been busy in the north for more than a year. It was not easy for him to take advantage of his grandfather's birthday to come back and rest for a few days. How did it become idle?
Xu Qingyan carefully stepped into the study and obediently stood in front of Xu Qingchen as punishment. "Big Brother, I was wrong."
Xu Qingchen smiled and asked, "What were you wrong about?"
Xu Qingyan sternly said, "I shouldn't have wandered around aimlessly. I'll immediately go help father and uncle. Then I'll go to grandfather to fulfill my filial piety." My biggest mistake was that I shouldn't have gloated in front of big brother. Xu Qingchen nodded with satisfaction and smiled. "Since you know you were wrong, accompany Big Brother to receive Miss Dongfang."
Huh? Xu Qingyan's eyes widened in horror. He had seen the power of that Dongfang You. No matter who she met, she dared to open her mouth and preach. She dared to talk about the way of a ruler in front of Prince Ding. She dared to talk about the way of a wife in front of Sister Li 'er. She even dared to talk about the way of a mother in front of his mother. Had she ever been a mother? Xu Qingyan even suspected that if she was in front of his grandfather, she would also dare to teach him how to be a teacher. Just thinking about it was like a nightmare.
"Big Brother … there's no need, right? Miss Dongfang is here for you … "
Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "How can that be? Miss Dongfang is an important guest of the Prince Ding Mansion. It will be more formal if you and I receive her together. "
Xu Qingyan still wanted to say something to beg Big Brother to let him go, but a figure in white appeared at the door. Dongfang You stood at the door and saw that Xu Qingyan was also there. She frowned slightly and nodded. "Why is Fifth Young Master here?"
Xu Qingyan could not help but widen his eyes. This girl's words were too strange. What did she mean by why was he here? Even if the Prince Ding Mansion was not his home, it was still his cousin's home. It should be more normal than her, who had nothing to do with him, right? Also, what did she mean by frowning and nodding arrogantly? Taking a deep breath, Fifth Young Master Xu finally remembered how to treat a guest. His handsome face stiffened as he nodded and said, "Isn't Miss Dongfang here too?"
Dongfang You could not help but widen her eyes. Even if she was slow, she could feel the hostility in Xu Qingyan's words. She just did not understand why Xu Qingyan was so rude to her. She did not expect that when she greeted Xu Qingyan just now, he was also rude.
Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "Miss Dongfang, please sit down. I don't know why you came so early in the morning. What do you want to say? "
Dongfang You nodded and said, "I want to ask if Young Master Qingchen is willing to marry me?" Hearing this, Xu Qingchen's smile froze. Xu Qingyan's mouth twitched. After a pause, Xu Qingchen lowered his eyes and drank his tea indifferently. After a moment of silence, he said, "Miss Dongfang, I remember that I have already given you this answer. I refuse. "
"Why?" Dongfang You frowned. Obviously, she could not understand why Xu Qingchen would refuse her. After thinking for a while, she said, "I heard that Young Master Qingchen and the Queen of Nanzhao have an unusual relationship. But the Queen of Nanzhao is already married and is about to have a child. Since Young Master Qingchen is a talent, you should know when to make a decision. Moreover, I am not worse than the Queen of Nanzhao. As long as it is something she knows how to do, I can do it better than her … "
"Miss Dongfang!" Xu Qingchen frowned. A trace of displeasure appeared on his handsome face. He said in a low voice, "The Queen of Nanzhao and I are just friends. Please do not spread nonsense. As a man, I am fine with it. But the Queen of Nanzhao and her husband are very close. Miss Dongfang … "
Dongfang You was stunned. She nodded and said, "Okay, I am wrong. Since that is the case, why is Young Master Qingchen unwilling to marry me? "
Xu Qingyan, who was listening by the side, deeply felt that even though his brother was full of wisdom and schemes, people like Dongfang You were his nemesis. Lightly coughing to clear his throat, Xu Qingyan asked with a smile, "Miss Dongfang, why does my brother have to marry you?" Dongfang You said matter-of-factly, "Young Master Qingchen is Princess Ding's cousin. After Young Master Qingchen and I get married, our Infinite Boundless Mountain will naturally help Prince Ding. I will also secretly assist Prince Ding to achieve great things. Is there anything wrong with that?" Xu Qingyan nodded and smiled, "There is nothing wrong with that. But … why does the Prince Ding Mansion need you to assist? Could it be that without you, the Prince Ding Mansion can't achieve great things? "
