Chapter 40: Meeting Shen Xiuyan
"What? Brother Ye doesn't know?"
"What do I know?"
"Since Brother Ye knows my engagement with Li Qingyao, he should know that I cannot accept it!" Chen Xiuyan shook his head and sighed, "How can I be with Li Qingyao and other arrogant people!"
"Hey hey, don't listen..." Ye Tianlai subconsciously wanted to defend Li Qingyao.
Chen Xiuyan sighed on his face and said solemnly: "Last month, she also injured Yue Lingjing's Xuexiu, almost dismantling her spiritual origin. Is this a false thing? Such a cruel person, even if she is the daughter of the Grand servant of the dynasty, I don't want to climb up!"
Ye Tianlai was slightly stunned: "... Have you not been in Tianqingyuan recently?"
During this period, Li Qingyao's affairs and Li Taipu's affairs should have spread, but it seems that Chen Xiuyan doesn't seem to know about it, otherwise even if he wants to terminate the engagement, he wouldn't have come here at this moment.
"Yes, I have been helping two friends with tasks for a while. I just finished it and I quickly whipped you Yuehen Sect. I haven't had time to go back to Tianqingyuan!"
Ye Tianlai was silent for a while: "...In fact, Junior Sister Li has reformed herself. The sage said that if you clean yourself, you will make progress. Instead of being clean, you will not be able to protect your past..."
"It's not a day when the ice is frozen. How long has it been gone? How could a person suddenly repent? Brother Ye, what's wrong? You and Xueyou Yue Lingjing are not..."
"Ah..." Ye Tianlai scratched his head with some annoyance, "Some things can't be explained clearly in just a few words! I'll take you to meet the head of the sect, and he will tell you!"
In fact, it is not difficult to explain, but Ye Tianlai doesn't want to explain to Chen Xiuyan.
When Chen Xiuyan heard that Li Qingyao was not good, he was a little angry and wanted to defend Li Qingyao. However, when he thought of Chen Xiuyan and Li Qingyao having a marriage contract, he became lazy and slow.
He was vaguely worried that Chen Xiuyan had learned about Li Qingyao at this moment, and discovered her cuteness and gave up the idea of breaking the engagement.
In fact, Ye Tianlai felt that she really didn't want the two to be together, but she just felt that they were not suitable for them... Li Qingyao had said before that she didn't like Chen Xiuyan, and Chen Xiuyan now seems to have no good feelings for Li Qingyao. Since that's the case, she might not be able to be happy even if she insisted on being together.
Chen Xiuyan and Li Qingyao are both his good friends. Ye Tianlai thinks that they should respect their opinions. If they can quietly terminate the engagement, it should be the best result!
Ye Tianlai sent Chen Xiuyan to the gate of Wu Diqiu's house, said goodbye to Shen Xiuyan, turned around and went to find Li Qingyao. Li Qingyao is going home today, so why not go see her and just treat it as seeing her off.
But she probably didn't know that Chen Xiuyan was here to break the engagement. If she knew, what would she look like? Should she tell her? However, with Chen Xiuyan's gentlemanly style, if she knew about Li Taipu's death, she would probably have temporarily stalled this matter. Alas...
Ye Tianlai was in a heavy mood and his pace couldn't help but slow down.
On the other hand, Chen Xiuyan visited Wu Diqiu and presented some polite gifts. Although Wu Diqiu was surprised by Chen Xiuyan's sudden arrival, he also warmly received him.
The two of them exchanged greetings, and Chen Xiuyan suddenly knelt in front of Wu Diqiu with a pounce: "Uncle Wu, you have watched me grow up and took me like a biological son. Now my nephew has a ruthless request, so please agree!"
Wu Diqiu was shocked and quickly helped him up: "Nephew Xiuyan got up quickly, what happened? If Uncle Wu can do it, he will definitely make the decision for you!"
Chen Xiuyan refused to get up and lowered his head and said, "It's the engagement between my nephew and Li Qingyao..."
"What?" Wu Diqiu was slightly stunned, "What's wrong with the engagement with Li Qingyao?"
"Uncle Wu, you are the head of Yuehen Sect. You must know that Li Qingyao is vulgar and arrogant and domineering. My nephew really doesn't want to..."
"Nonsense!" Wu Diqiu understood, waved his sleeves and his eyebrows stood up, "This is something I discussed with your parents. How can you, a junior, let you talk nonsense here? If it is for this matter, hurry back and prepare for the seven schools in more than a month. This is your top priority!"
"Uncle Wu, this is a lifelong event for my nephew. I would like to ask Uncle Wu to save my nephew!" Chen Xiuyan bowed deeply to Wu Diqiu.
"Hu..." Wu Diqiu let out a long breath, suppressed his irritability and advised, "Li Qingyao already has the desire to repent, don't believe in the past rumors!"
Chen Xiuyan smiled bitterly. For so many years, no one has ever heard of Li Qingyao's reputation. Although she has the appearance of a fish falling from the geese, her character is completely opposite to her appearance!
"The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. What's more, she still..."
"People always change! You have never seen her before, how do you know what kind of person she is now? Do you just don't want to marry her?"
"Even if my nephew dies... he is unwilling to marry Li Qingyao!"
"You..." Wu Diqiu was furious, but soon calmed down and sighed heavily, "Do you know what happened to Li Taipu and his wife being assassinated a few days ago? Now that Li Taipu and his wife's body is not cold, you are going to terminate the engagement with other people's orphans. If others know, how should they view your Shen family?"
Chen Xiuyan was shocked: "Ah... Mr. Li and his wife were killed?"
Seeing that Chen Xiuyan was indeed unaware of it, Wu Diqiu took advantage of the situation to help him up: "It happened these days. Do you still plan to terminate your engagement now?"
...
Chen Xiuyan said goodbye and left dejectedly, walking on the small road outside Wu Diqiu's house, feeling complicated. Since Li Taipu passed away, it is impossible to terminate the engagement in the near future. I am afraid that the Li family and the Shen family will turn the oral agreement into facts during this period... However, Li Taipu and his wife died and the head of the Li family changed their ranks, so his parents may not be so happy to marry the Li family.
Should I go back home first and discuss with my parents? Chen Xiuyan was so upset that he suddenly heard a "Ouch" sound, and a faint and strange fragrance filled the air, which made people feel calm and intoxicated.
He immediately came to his senses and he bumped into someone, and he was a beautiful woman in blue.
"Sorry, I'm distracted, this student is abrupt!" Chen Xiuyan immediately bent down and apologized.
"You don't need to apologize, I'm distracted." The girl smiled gently, "I see that you look a little bit arrogant. Could it be that you are not from Yuehen Sect?"
Chen Xiuyan slowly raised his head and looked at the beauty in green.
She has a beautiful face, her green clothes are like lotus, her long hair is like ink, her eyebrows and eyes are full of beautiful and spirituality, and she is unique. She smiles on the corners of her mouth, but there is a bright melancholy as she looks forward to her, as if it is the deep valley of autumn, the fallen leaves are graceful, beautiful and desolate.
So beautiful! Chen Xiuyan felt aroused in his heart and coughed: "That's right, here is the Shen of Tianqingyuan..."
"Are you from Tianqingyuan?" The girl in green looked happy.
