"What do you want from me?" Yu Miao wiped the dust off his face with his sleeve.

Compared with Yueming Fengqing beside him, he looked really embarrassed.

"What do you mean? Didn't Miss Yu ask me out?"

He was referring to the note Yu Miao handed him.

Yu Miao couldn't bear to see herself being so dirty while he was so clean.

She deliberately pinched a corner of his sleeve and rubbed it until his sleeve was stained with dust, then she smiled triumphantly.

"I'm sorry."

Xiao Jinan frowned at first, but when he saw Yu Miao smiling brightly, he also curled the corners of his lips.

"It's okay. Miss Yu thinks I like cleanliness?"

"Is not it?"

Every time I see him, he is always wearing white clothes, no other colors. He must be a mysophobe.

“I just didn’t have any other color options.”

Oh, so you have a fear of making choices?

That's too serious. Will you never wear clothes of other colors except white?

"How come? You can match the color according to the time."

"The color of time?"

"Yes, like now, summer means the emerald green of willow trees, the bright red flowers, and the azure blue sky... If you really can't choose, you can dress according to the time."

Xiao Jinan smiled and said, "Really? Then what time is it today, Miss Yu? Has it already turned dark?"

Yu Miao looked down and saw his dark clothes, and felt that Xiao Jinan still had a bit of humor in him.

“This is an accident.”

"If that's the case, then okay."

Xiao Jinan smiled, and Yu Miao could even see the dimples faintly visible on his face.

"Ahem, Ms. Yu, are you satisfied with my appearance? Last time, you stared at me like this in front of Mother Qin."

"..."

Yu Miao once again lamented his own lack of success.

Trying to bring the topic back: "Mr. Xiao knows the identities of Yu Xin and me, right?"

Xiao Jinan chuckled: "Miss Yu, what do you mean by that? I'm just someone who likes to play the piano."

"Mr. Xiao, are you unwilling to believe me? Or do you think that I am weak and cannot help you?"

"Miss Yu, there is no need to belittle yourself, nor to test your words. Miss Yu is so beautiful that she is the most stunning in the country, but I just don't understand."

Seeing that his attitude did not waver at all, Yu Miao took out the jade pendant.

"This, is it Mr. Xiao's thing?"

Xiao Jinan was finally willing to look at her a few more times.

"What makes you think this is mine?"

Seeing that he was still being stubborn, Yu Miao didn't intend to force him to admit it.

"How I know this is Mr. Xiao's is not important. I will not pursue what purpose Mr. Xiao wants to use this to achieve. I came to discuss cooperation with Mr. Xiao with sincerity today. I hope Mr. Xiao will not be so defensive against me. Will you listen to what I can do for Mr. Xiao?"

Xiao Jinan looked around and felt that although this place was quiet, it was not a good place for a secret conversation.

He took Yu Miao to another place.

"Hey, you brought guests here today?"

Qingyuan, who was sweeping the yard, saw Xiao Jinan bringing a guest, which was rare. What was even rarer was that the other party was a girl.

Such a beautiful girl is a perfect match for him.

He waved at Yu Miao curiously.

Yu Miao recognized him. Five years ago, Yu Xin had a high fever and it was this old man who treated her.

After hearing about his deeds from the girls in the Red Mansion, Yu Miao expressed her genuine admiration for him.

She waved at him very respectfully yet playfully.

Generous!

This is another evaluation of Miao by Qingyuan.

He actually doesn't like girls who are shy and timid in their voices, and of course, the same goes for boys.

When dealing with people and doing things, you should be relaxed and generous, so that you can have vitality in life.

"This is Miss Yu Miao." Xiao Jinan introduced briefly.

"Oh, hello, Miss Yu Miao, I'm Qingyuan."

Yu Miao also likes such an unpretentious elder, and doesn’t need to be too restrained when interacting with him.

"Master, I have something important to discuss with this girl, so I won't stay here any longer."

Qingyuan expressed his understanding.

As two young people, they are full of passion and definitely need some space to be alone.

"You guys go ahead. I, an old man, won't get involved."

Qingyuan smiled ambiguously.

This look made the originally shameless Yu Miao feel embarrassed, and the same went for Xiao Jinan.

"Let's go, ignore him."

Ignoring the cursing that followed, Xiao Jinan took Yu Miao to a side room.

"sit."

After finding a random seat and sitting down, Yu Miao unconsciously looked around the environment.

Everything around you seems random, but it is actually carefully designed.

Even the orientation of the leaves by the window is casual and beautiful.

Even though the temperature outside is not low right now, there is a natural coolness when sitting inside that makes people calm down unconsciously.

"I wonder what the sincerity that Miss Yu mentioned means?"

Xiao Jinan poured Yu Miao a cup of tea. Yu Miao took it, and the moment his fingertips touched her, she shuddered as if she had been electrocuted.

cold!

It’s too cool!

How could someone's hands be so cold? If it was winter, she could understand it, but it was a hot summer now.

Xiao Jinan apologized, "I have been weak since I was a child, and my qi and blood are deficient. I am very sorry for accidentally scaring the girl."

"No no……"

Yu Miao waved his hands repeatedly and said after taking a sip of tea.

"Sir, you asked me about my sincerity. I want to say that I have lived a precarious life for the first half of my life. My parents died young, and I moved to the Red Mansion with my sister. In fact, I just want to live the life of an ordinary woman, with my husband by my side day and night, and with children to take care of me..."

Yu Miao said, tears welling up in her eyes: "Although I haven't seen much of the world, I'm not a fool. I know that my sister and I's life stories are not that simple. Otherwise, how could we have alarmed even the nobles in the capital?"

Xiao clenched his right fist slightly today, tapping rhythmically on the chopping board with his fingertips.

With a smile on his face, he said, "Girl, just tell me what you want."

Yu Miao stood up, moved closer to Xiao Jinan, and knelt down.

The two people's dresses overlapped, interweaving to create an ambiguous pattern.

"Yu Miao is willing to do anything for you, sir. Regarding the jade pendant or anything else, Yu Miao is willing to take risks. The only thing is..."

Yu Miao raised her eyes, tears about to fall: "I hope you can keep me by your side."

Xiao Jinan paused tapping the chopping board.

He asked uncertainly, "Miss Yu, do you mean to stay with me and work for me or..."

"In fact, I have been in love with Mr. Xiao for a long time. Five years ago... it was almost love at first sight! I know that I was born in the Red Mansion, and such a lowly status is definitely not worthy of Mr. Xiao, but even if there is only a slight possibility, I still want to express my love to Mr. Xiao. I want to accompany Mr. Xiao for the rest of my life in the name of his wife."

Yu Miao breathed a sigh of relief after he finished speaking.

This was the first time in so many worlds that she proposed to a target.

Her idea was simple, just take the points and leave. Since she wanted to get the points, she had to have some fun with him.

The identity of a couple is very important.
