Unbeknownst to him, Li Yun was still smiling brightly.
"My father has already asked for the lord's opinion. Now he's just short of visiting her personally, but I …" The smile on Li Yun's face was unbearable to Wei Ci. "I keep feeling that I need to prepare something more. Both of you are experienced and knowledgeable, why don't you give me some pointers?"
"Oh … is that so?"
Wei Ci chuckled softly. Li Yun inexplicably felt a tingling chill run down his spine.
The chill left as quickly as it came, quickly disappearing without a trace.
Feng Zhen was a shrewd man. He acutely noticed that Wei Ci's emotions were a little off, but Li Yun, the simple-minded youth, was too slow to notice.
He had an idea. He tiptoed and rested his hand on Li Yun's shoulder. He teased him with a smile, "Hanmei is already a man in his twenties. He should have started a family long ago. This is a rare joyous occasion in Wanzhou. It must be a grand affair. It must be done in a lively and joyous manner. "
Wei Ci's thoughts went astray for a moment, but Feng Zhen would not misunderstand.
There were indeed a lot of bachelors in Wanzhou. Now that Li Yun was leaving the group, it was a joyous occasion.
"Come, come, come. Let me, an experienced man, give you a few pointers. There's no use asking Zixiao. He's still facing a big problem himself."
Feng Zhen and Li Yun put their arms around Li Yun's shoulders, a mischievous smile on their faces.
Li Yun subconsciously felt that Feng Zhen was unreliable, but he was not wrong.
Although Feng Zhen was unrestrained, he was still a married man. He had a well-behaved, adorable, and sensible son.
What about Wei Ci?
It was true that he was gentle and humble, but he was still a bachelor. Asking for pointers on such matters was indeed a little irrational.
"Please enlighten me, Mr. Feng," Li Yun said obediently.
Feng Zhen glanced at Wei Ci out of the corner of his eye. He saw that Wei Ci's brows were furrowed, and there was a hint of forbearance and restraint between his brows. He laughed inwardly.
"Men should get married when they're of age, and women should get married when they're of age. The two of you are in love with each other. This is truly a golden marriage bestowed by the heavens." Feng Zhen pretended to exaggerate, wishing that he could praise Li Yun and Shangguan Wan to the heavens. Li Yun, an unmarried young lad, blushed and was so embarrassed that he didn't even know where to place his hands. Feng Zhen even said, "Han Mei, listen to me. You only need to run to the lord and express your sincere and passionate feelings to the person you love … Believe me, no woman in this world can resist such a passionate and unrestrained confession."
Li Yun was so embarrassed that he felt as if smoke was about to come out of his head. He had also said implicit words of love to Shangguan Wan before, but he had never said them so bluntly.
Who would have thought that Mister Feng, who appeared to be a debauchee, was actually a passionate person. His petite body hid a bold and unrestrained soul.
Liyun said shyly in a low voice, "Isn't this … too offensive? I'm afraid that Lord will despise me and say that I've offended a beauty … "
Feng Zhen laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? A chaste woman is afraid of a clingy man! She might say you're rude, but who knows how shy and happy she is in her heart. "
Li Yun was about to nod when he heard Wei Ci reprimand him while suppressing his anger.
"How rude, how impudent!"
Li Yun was stunned. He turned to look at Wei Ci, but all he could see was the other's back as he turned to leave and his wide sleeves fluttering in the wind.
"This, this … Mister Wei, this is …"
Once a mild-mannered person got angry, the scene was rather frightening.
Even though Li Yun was valiant and brave, he was also shocked at this moment. He didn't know how he had angered the other.
Feng Zhen restrained the emotions in his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a profound smile.
Li Yun muttered, "Mister Wei has always been self-restrained and polite. Mister Feng's words just now must have displeased him."
Indeed, such a solemn event as a marriage proposal should be carried out with respect and not blindly guided by Mister Feng.
Feng Zhen heard Li Yun's mutterings and scoffed lightly. He said, "Concern leads to confusion. Even he, Wei Zixiao, is no exception."
Li Yun continued to be confused, not understanding what Feng Zhen meant.
Feng Zhen saw that his brain wasn't working properly and gave him a loving look, as if he was looking at his own silly and adorable son.
"If you don't understand, then don't think too much. It's useless even if you understand. Since the lord has already agreed to your marriage with Wan Niangzi, and Wan Niangzi has feelings for you, you just need to follow the old tradition of the Three Letters and Six Rites and do it step by step. I'll be waiting to drink your wedding wine! "
Li Yun was dejected. After going around in circles, Feng Zhen still hadn't come up with any good ideas.
After easily dismissing Li Yun, Feng Zhen was so worried that he paced in circles three times.
Feng Zhen knew that with Wei Ci's brain, even if his IQ went offline, it would only be for a short period of time. Once Wei Ci had time to calm down, he would definitely realize that he had made a mistake. Thinking of this, Feng Zhen hurriedly chased after Wei Ci and shamelessly went to his house.
"I didn't expect this, I didn't expect this …"
Feng Zhen hadn't even entered the main hall, but he was already filled with excitement, as if he had discovered a new continent.
"Didn't expect what?"
Wei Ci had been back for a while. He knelt near the table and stared coldly at the boiling tea stove.
He already knew that Feng Zhen would come, but he was secretly annoyed at himself for not being patient enough to have such a stupid misunderstanding.
"I really didn't expect that you, Wei Zixiao, would have such thoughts about your lord!"
Feng Zhen lightly slapped the table. The sound wasn't loud, but it was enough to make one's heart tremble.
When Wei Ci heard this, he suddenly raised his head. His ink-black eyes contained an undisguised sharpness.
"Zi Shi, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. When did I ever have any disrespectful thoughts about my lord? "
Feng Zhen had a smile on his face as he sat beside Wei Ci.
"Just 'disrespectful thoughts'?" Feng Zhen wouldn't let this opportunity slip by. It was rare to see Wei Ci being forced into a corner. No matter what, he had to enjoy it. He said aggressively, "No matter who it was, when they first heard that Han Mei wanted to propose marriage to my lord, the first thought that came to mind was that he wanted to propose marriage to my lord and marry Shangguan Wan. But you're different. Your first thought was that Han Mei wanted to propose marriage to my lord and marry her! Do you think it's reasonable to say that you don't have any other thoughts about my lord? "
Wei Ci opened his mouth. His secret thoughts had been exposed by Feng Zhen, and for a moment, he didn't know how to refute.
His glib tongue that flowed like a river didn't have any effect on him at all.
"Absurd!"
He could only spit out these two words.
Feng Zhen, who had been imposing just a moment ago, raised his hand and put it around Wei Ci's shoulder the next second, looking like a good brother.
"My lord isn't married, and you aren't either. Isn't it normal to have such thoughts?" Feng Zhen said. "Why are you so secretive about it?"
Look, you almost scared the little angel Han Mei just now.
Wei Ci raised his hand and brushed Feng Zhen's hand away. His expression was dark and solemn, and he looked at Feng Zhen with even more vigor. "How can a person like my lord be disrespected so easily! I don't want to hear such words from you again. Ci and my lord are innocent! "
