"Cousin, I..." Xie Luochen looked at Nan Yuan, his eyes full of anxiety and fear.

Compared to Nan's father, he was more afraid that Nan Yuan had misunderstood him.

"Father," Nan Yuan looked at Nan's father and said, "You might as well listen to what he says first. If he really wants to break off the engagement, I will never force him; if we have misunderstood him, we have to let him explain himself and we will make a decision after we listen to him."

Afterwards, Nan Yuan looked at Xie Luochen again and expressed her attitude to Nan's father: "Father is right. Although our Nan family is not as good as your Xie family, we are still a famous family. How can we be insulted by you casually? If you can't come up with a suitable reason today, our two families will have nothing to do with each other from now on!"

When Xie Luochen heard such words of separation, his heart instantly tightened.

He really didn't dare to think about what would happen if what Nan Yuan said really came true. He cared about this marriage much more than he thought.

Xie Luochen clenched his fists tightly. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said, "Uncle, please listen to what I have to say. I do have my reasons for doing this."

Hearing this, Father Nan couldn't help but sneer and said, "For Yuan'er's sake, I will listen to your difficulties for a while. Tell me!"

"Yes." Xie Luochen nodded in agreement, then looked at Nan Yuan: "I received news some time ago that I will be responsible for disaster relief. This matter is related to whether my Xie Wangfu can keep a place in the capital in the future, but whether it will succeed or not is still uncertain, so I want to postpone the wedding."

There was a hint of confusion in Nan Yuan's eyes. What does disaster relief have to do with marriage?

Shouldn't it be the princess's affairs that are related to their marriage?

She wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to ask. She only heard Xie Luochen's voice again:

“If this succeeds, not only will my Xie family have a place in the capital station, but I will also have absolute say in my family.

By then, even if my mother disagrees, it will not stop me. I will definitely fulfill the marriage agreement between the Xie and Nan families, and I will give my cousin an extremely grand wedding.

If this fails, my Xie family will probably suffer a lot of attacks. By then, if the Nan family and my family are still planning a marriage, they will probably be implicated.

I don't want my cousin to suffer with me, so if it really comes to that, my Xie Palace will immediately cancel the marriage, and I will be solely responsible for the consequences."

As soon as Xie Luochen finished speaking, Nan Yuan suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him. His eyes were firm and clear, without any hint of evasion or avoidance.

He was more determined than she had ever seen him before!

"This is the marriage certificate and the marriage cancellation letter. Please accept them, uncle." Xie Luochen took out two red and gold-stamped booklets from his arms and handed them over. "After the matter is over, no matter what the situation is, I have no complaints."

Father Nan took the letter, opened it and saw that it was indeed the seal of Prince Xie's Mansion. He felt relieved and put the thing away calmly.

"Father, I..."

Nan Yuan wanted to say something, but was stopped by her father.

It's not that he is snobbish, but just ask yourself, is there any father in this world who would be willing to watch his children jump into a fire pit?

It’s okay for the child to be overwhelmed by emotions for a while, but he can’t do that because he has to be responsible for the child.

It would be better for him to be the bad guy, which would save a lot of trouble.

"Since this is your decision, I can't stop you." Father Nan paused, stared at him sharply, and said, "But remember, I only have this one daughter, you must not let her down!"

Xie Luochen bowed respectfully to Father Nan: "Luochen will follow the instructions of my uncle."

Seeing this, Nan Yuan also bowed, but she felt mixed emotions.

"Well, you young people must have a lot to say, so I won't disturb you anymore." After saying that, Nan's father took the housekeepers of the Xie and Nan families away.

Only Nan Yuan and Xie Luochen were left in the room.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Nan Yuan hesitated for a while and broke the silence first: "Cousin, you..." There was no need to do this. If she did this, she would feel like she owed him a lot.

Before she finished speaking, Xie Luochen suddenly turned around and looked at her with burning eyes: "I like you. I married you so that you can follow me and enjoy happiness. If I knew that you would only suffer if you followed me, then I would rather you stay away from me."

Nan Yuan was slightly stunned. She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but found that she couldn't say anything.

"You don't need to explain to me, I understand your intentions." Xie Luochen's eyes softened: "Don't worry, I have investigated the disaster relief matter in advance, and I am 70% sure that I can succeed. You just need to wait for me to marry you peacefully."

Nan Yuan pursed her lips, her eyes slightly sour.

"Don't be upset with your uncle. He is doing this for your own good. There is no parent in this world who doesn't want their children to be well." Xie Luochen reached out and rubbed Nan Yuan's head, saying, "Don't worry, I won't let the marriage cancellation take effect. I will work hard to complete this disaster relief, and then we will get married immediately."

"Okay, I believe you." Nan Yuan nodded. She knew that her feelings for Xie Luochen had not yet reached the level of love, but based on what he did today, she would not let him down.

"Cousin, I will also try my best to make my aunt accept me."

Xie Luochen's expression slightly changed when he heard this. He touched Nan Yuan's head and said softly, "Then let's work together."

Nan Yuan nodded.

"By the way, this is the rouge I brought back from outside the city. I don't know if you like it or not, but I bought it because it looked pretty." Xie Luochen put the rouge in Nan Yuan's hand.

Nan Yuan looked at Yanzhi, thanked her, and felt mixed emotions.

Whether she likes it or not, the Xie family is her best choice so far.

After marrying into the Xie family, she became the Crown Prince's Consort, and after a few years, she became the Princess Consort.

With the help of Prince Xie's Mansion, she could not only keep her family property, but also live the rest of her life in peace. This was much better than her previous life.

Call her mean or despicable, she just wants to live a good life.

-

evening.

Nan Yuan returned to the Princess's Mansion again.

This time when she went to the Princess's Mansion, she did not see Gu Jingheng.

Nan Yuan didn't care much about it. It was better not to see him, so she didn't have to deal with it.

She fiddled with the rouge in her hand. How could she please her aunt?

Nan Yuan knew that she was marrying Princess Xie, and no matter how Xie Luochen tried to mediate, she would inevitably have to deal with Princess Xie.

Having a good relationship with Princess Xie would at least save face. This is better than treating each other like enemies as soon as you meet.

"face!"

Nan Yuan suddenly understood why Princess Xie disliked her. It was not necessarily that she disliked her as a person, but just hated that she could not bring benefits to the Xie family.

What does the princess have?

A princess doesn't have to have real power. Just the title can help the Xie family gain face and help Xie Luochen rise to prominence.

But what if I can also help the Xie family?

Nan Yuan knew the reason and started to think of a solution.

As I was thinking, the night deepened.

Nan Yuan felt a little sleepy, but was afraid of waking up in the middle of the night, so she lit the incense she brought from home.

After finishing, her body was exhausted and her eyelids felt heavy as if they were filled with lead.

After forcing herself to change into pajamas, she climbed into bed, feeling drowsy.

In a state half asleep and half awake, Nan Yuan felt as if she was being pressed down by several thick quilts, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

She subconsciously struggled to push and kick, but the "quilt" seemed to have intelligence. It grasped her wrists, lifted them high above her head, and in an instant spread her legs apart.

The hot breath sprayed on her neck, making her body suddenly tense.

"Get off……"

Nan Yuan struggled and uttered two unclear words.

The next second, a man leaned over, his hot lips sucking her earlobes and collarbones, and his rough hands reached into her clothes...
