Chapter 1453 Pride and Prejudice and the Escort Agency
Xu Zhenzhen, who was staying at the inn, soon heard about Shi Li's martial arts competition to find a husband.
I couldn't sit still anymore.
"She must have done it on purpose! She just wanted to provoke my cousin to come after her!"
The innocent girl was so angry that she slammed the table and stood up, her cheeks flushed. She could no longer sit in the inn, "I want to go to the Wenchang Escort Agency to see what this woman wants to do!"
The eldest lady got angry and the two guards couldn't stop her. They could only persuade her while accompanying her out of the inn and heading straight to the Wenchang Escort Agency.
At the same time, Luo Qingyan also found what he wanted in his private storage, and happily set off with the things in his pocket.
"The way he looked at me, I thought he wanted to empty his mother's dowry as a betrothal gift." The owner of the manor held his forehead helplessly.
Xun Xi stood by and smiled gently, "The owner of the manor should rest assured. At least the young master has good taste. As for Miss Shi, any amount of betrothal gift is reasonable."
"That's true. She's a rare good girl. I'm just afraid she doesn't like Qingyan." The owner of the manor completely agreed with Xun Xi's statement and was also worried that Luo Qingyan would return empty-handed.
"This depends on your own efforts, no one else can help."
"He is my son after all. You should go with him to take a look. Maybe you can help him." After all, the owner of the manor is his biological father, and he pushed Xun Xi, whom he trusted the most, out.
This was exactly what Xun Xi wanted to watch the fun, so he didn't care how far it was from Baiyuan Villa to Wenchang Escort Agency, and he set off later.
However, he did not inform Luo Qingyan, but followed quietly behind.
As the sun sets, the orange-red afterglow of the sunset stretches the shadow of the house very long, falling in the yard.
Shi Li was half lying on the only rocking chair in the yard, looking lazily at the sky above her head.
There was also a small table at hand, on which was warm fruit tea and some delicious snacks.
For her, this is the happiest life.
Until the servant came hurriedly and said that a girl named Xu had come outside and asked to see her.
Shi Li suddenly thought of Xu Zhenzhen, and also remembered what she said, and paused when she stood up.
The scene of Luo Qingyan standing behind him, holding the sword tightly, appeared in his mind.
He was the only employer who had saved her, so he was a little different from the others.
Shi Li thought that what was coming would eventually come, and simply avoiding it would not work.
He took a deep breath and walked outside.
As expected, the person who came was Xu Zhenzhen.
The eldest lady stood in the middle of the lobby with great momentum, her chin slightly raised, and her look somewhat similar to Luo Qingyan. However, when she saw that the person who came out was Shi Li, her expression suddenly froze.
Being spoiled is one thing, but being smart is another.
Xu Zhenzhen did not foolishly ask why Shi Li appeared here, but immediately realized who she was and looked extremely surprised.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to keep it to myself during the day." Shi Li came over and apologized sincerely. She wanted to make it clear to Xu Zhenzhen during the day, but she really didn't have the chance.
Xu Zhenzhen pursed her lips and frowned, and after a while she raised her head and looked at her again, "You left in a hurry during the day, and I didn't have time to thank you. I... I didn't know that you were the head of the escort team."
Both of them were embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Shi Li cleared her throat and thought about explaining, "I actually wanted to tell you during the day that there is nothing wrong between me and Mr. Luo. You must have misunderstood."
"It's okay." Xu Zhenzhen shook her head and blinked at Shi Li. "As soon as I saw you, I knew I was wrong before. But why do people outside say that you want to hold a martial arts competition to win a husband?"
Xu Zhenzhen is a well-educated and good girl. After meeting Shi Li, she immediately put aside all her previous prejudices and instead considered her wholeheartedly.
Shi Li didn't want to tell Xu Zhenzhen about the dirty tricks among her peers, so she just chuckled.
"What's the big deal? No one can stand in the ring until the end anyway. It's just a formality."
"That's right. My cousin is definitely not good enough either. He only knows a little bit of Kung Fu and is afraid of both death and pain." Xu Zhenzhen nodded in agreement.
Shi Li: ...
Girl, is it really okay for you to say this about your cousin?
Didn't you show your deep love for him before?
Do young girls of your generation change their hearts so quickly?
