However she was after all a young lady, just like her little name. Shen Jiao Jiao should have been pampered to grow up but she had to be forced to grow up. Never showing weakness did not mean that there was no weakness. For example just now when she woke up from a nightmare, the despair in her eyes was enough to shock one.
She grabbed onto his clothes and her entire body was trembling, as if she had experienced a huge horror but in an instant, she returned to her usual dignified appearance. They were like wounded beasts that had to show off their strength at all times, because once their wounds were discovered by their enemies, they would be mercilessly slaughtered without holding back.
Xie Jing Xing was confused. He was not a good person and had a ruthlessness that ordinary people did not have but every time he faced Shen Miao, he would always leave some leeway. From the first time he saw Shen Miao, in fact his attitude was one of concession. He was letting her.
But he did not know what was the reason.
It was as if he deliberately said that the rain did not stop, just to watch her sleep. She was obviously very afraid but still wanted to be brave, so he could only pretend that he did not know.
When the rain stopped, he tucked the cup in for Shen Miao and put down the curtain before leaving the room.
On the bed, Shen Miao's eyelashes slightly moved but she did not open her eyes.
The residence that was separated by a wall from the Shen mansion had now been bought by Prince Rui. Xie Jing Xing walked out from inside and Tie Yi and Nan Qi who were waiting outside quickly followed.
"The invitation from the Palace has been accepted again." Xie Jing Xing said.
Tie Yi was surprised for a moment, "Did not Master say not to go?"
"Changed mind." Xie Jing Xing swept a glance at him.
Tie Yi quickly agreed but his heart was filled with doubts. That invitation was sent by a few Princes in the Palace. Xie Jing Xing did not want to get involved with the Princes of Ming Qi and the Crown Prince of the Great Qin so he directly rejected it. Why did he suddenly think of it now? Tie Yi carefully looked at his Master and only felt that Xie Jing Xing's eyes were filled with coldness and his heart was even more puzzled.
Xie Jing Xing's eyes were slightly cold.
In Shen Miao's dream, not only Luo Xue Yan's name was called, Prince Ding, Fu Xiu Yi was also called.
Don't like Fu Xiu Yi anymore … A mocking smile suddenly appeared on the corners of his mouth. Like?
The word 'liked' was always an eyesore to others.
…
The thunder in winter in the Ding capital made the second day quickly turn cold. It was as if winter had arrived overnight. Everyone was talking about the heavy rain last night, which was rather abrupt.
"One did not expect that the rain would come so suddenly and had forgotten about the flowers and plants in the courtyard. When the painting was about to start, a few pots were broken. Those flowers were usually carefully taken care of so it is such a pity." Chen Rou Qiu was helping Shen Wan tidy up his clothes as she talked about the heavy rain last night.
Chen Rou Qiu had always been particular about elegance and even those flowers and grasses were of rare species. Shen Wan listened absent-mindedly but did not look at Chen Rou Qiu.
Chen Rou Qiu noticed Shen Wan's expression and asked with a smile, "Does Master have something on your mind?"
Shen Wan recovered to his senses and looked at Chen Rou Qiu, "I was thinking that Yue-er is now at the age of marriage."
Chen Rou Qiu's heart thumped but she smiled, "I know. I have been looking for a suitable family for Yue-er but this family has to be picked slowly. One cannot blindly marry Yue-er over and Master will also feel heartache."
"One have already been looking for for so long." This time Shen Wan was not brushed off by Chen Rou Qiu as he said with a straight face, "Ever since Yue-er turned sixteen, it has been a full two years. Even if the young ladies of other families were not married, they were already settled. If Yue-er continue to drag on like this, it would be difficult to find a suitable family in the future. The few families that I gave you a few days ago are all not bad. I have seen that the families are well-matched and there are not many worries in the residence. Yue-er would not suffer a loss if she were to marry over. "
