The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

Straightforward.

Determined.

Xiao Yan's unique way of expression.

He himself didn't know when and how he fell in love with her.

[The eldest daughter of the Shen family, beautiful and gentle, with superb zither skills and good painting skills]

He was familiar with the records about her in Eagle Nest Pavilion, but it did not attract his attention at that time.

Although she is a beautiful woman, she has no soul.

She was too shackled by the Shen family and completely lost herself.

At least, Xiao Yan always thought so before.

It was not until they met at the back hill of Jing'an Temple that he completely overturned his perception of her.

It turns out that was the real Shen Qiyin!

The quality of pine and cypress becomes more luxuriant after frost.

Light without dazzling, still water runs deep.

He even suspected that she had been replaced.

Later, suspicion turned into curiosity.

Unconsciously, curiosity was mixed with heartache.

In the end, pity, admiration, longing, possession... he developed towards her all the feelings a man would have when he falls in love with a woman!

"Tell me honestly what you think."

"For example, if you want to get married tomorrow, I will immediately send someone to the Shen family to propose marriage."

"Or maybe you want to wait until you have dealt with the Shen family before getting married, then I will wait."

"or……"

When talking about this possibility, Xiao Yan paused for a moment, and his tone became a little heavier: "Or maybe you don't want to, but you have to tell me why."

"If it's because I didn't do something well, I can change it."

"But if it's because you have someone you like..."

Before he could finish his words, he paused again.

This time, he didn't speak for a long time.

He didn't know whether he himself hadn't figured out what to do when the time came, or he had figured it out but was afraid of upsetting Shen Qiyin so he avoided talking about it.

Originally, his words "Will you marry me?" made Shen Qiyin dizzy and she was completely stunned and had no idea how to respond.

But after hearing what he said later, she replied without even thinking: "I have someone I like, so what?"

Xiao Yan's brows sank slightly.

Just thinking about this situation is enough to make people angry.

After a long pause, he said solemnly, "If that's the case, I will try my best not to disturb you, but if I can't help it in the end, please forgive me."

Shen Qiyin: “…” This answer is very “Xiao Yan”.

She looked at him quietly for a long moment.

She was weighing.

If she really told him the truth as he said, then her chances of getting away with it would be very slim.

She didn't say anything, and Xiao Yan didn't urge her, he just waited patiently.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Qiyin seemed to sigh softly, and said with a breath as sweet as orchid: "Xiao Hanyu, I don't hate you."

"But at the same time, I don't have any improper thoughts about you."

"After listening to what I have to say, if you regret asking for my hand in marriage, I will pretend that nothing happened today. You will still be the Sir Xiao whom I admire and respect, and I will still be loyal to you."

"But if you insist..."

Shen Qiyin curled his lips slightly, a warm smile appeared on his face: "I have fallen in love with you, and I hope I will not let you down."

"As for marriage, let's talk about it later." She looked away, her eyes slightly lowered to an unknown place, and said faintly: "I never doubt the deep love that makes people pledge their lives together, but the hearts of those who promise deep love are fickle."

"Human nature is fickle, and the road of life is bumpy. Maybe it won't be long before we regret it."

Upon hearing this, a certain prince immediately grasped the point: "Will you regret it?"

Shen Qiyin: "...I don't dare."

Xiao Yan: "Well, I can't."

After these words were spoken, silence fell in the carriage.

The atmosphere suddenly took a turn for the worse and became extremely awkward.

Miss Shen was talking cheerfully just now, but now she feels very uncomfortable.

When people are extremely embarrassed, they will want to say something or do something to break the awkward atmosphere.

So she said, "W-Would you like some tea?"

As she spoke, she reached out for the teapot and cups on the small table.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan misunderstood her meaning and thought that she was thirsty, so he wanted to pour her a cup of tea.

result--

Their hands touched without any surprise.

Shen Qiyin's hand was on the handle of the teapot, while Xiao Yan's hand was on the back of her hand.

She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand out, but unexpectedly Xiao Yan grabbed her fingertips and held it in his palm.

She looked at him in surprise.

Xiao Yan kept his eyes straight ahead with a serious expression, but his red ears betrayed him.

Seeing this, Shen Qiyin no longer cared about being shy.

Who could have thought that the commander of the Thousand Eagle Guard, who was usually ruthless and decisive, was actually an innocent young man whose ears would turn red just by holding a girl's hand.

Fun...

Realizing that Shen Qiyin did not resist and even held his hand back, Xiao Yan was stunned at first, then his eyes showed joy. He pulled her hand and placed it on his leg, holding it tighter and tighter.

Her hands were much smaller than his, soft and boneless.

There is only a thin layer of calluses on the fingertips, which should be caused by learning piano since childhood.

Xiao Yan's thumb gently stroked her fingertips, once, again...

Then, the neck turned red too.

Shen Qiyin: "Xiao Hanyu, is this your first time holding a girl's hand?"

"...Yeah." He said in a low voice.

"No wonder." Shen Qiyin turned his head to look at him, his eyebrows curved: "You are blushing."

Xiao Yan pursed his lips.

"The ears are red too."

Her response was still silence.

"And the neck..."

"Stop, stop talking." Although the voice was deep, the tone was not an order, and it even carried a hint of pleading. Shen Qiyin felt soft-hearted when he heard it, but conflictedly, he wanted to bully him.

Fun!

She suddenly regretted it.

I should have cleared this up with him earlier.

But then again, why haven’t we arrived at the Marquis of Wu’an’s Mansion yet?

The fact is, it’s already arrived!

Or rather, it’s too early.

As a qualified guard, the most basic thing is to be perceptive, capable, and able to help your master solve problems.

The fourth day is the best among them.

He had been eavesdropping all the way, and when the carriage was about to arrive at the Wu'an Marquis's Mansion, he saw that the matter between their young master and Miss Shen had not been settled yet, so he immediately whipped the carriage, and the carriage drove past the gate of the Wu'an Marquis's Mansion smoothly.

Chusi thought to himself, I have to keep an eye on the car door today, the relationship between the two masters is uncertain, no one is allowed to get off the car!

In this way, he drove his carriage and passed the marquis's mansion three times without entering.

The servants in front of the marquis's mansion were all stunned.

Seeing that it was the carriage that Shen Qiyin usually rode in coming, they all ran down the steps to greet him, but he left again.

The two servants looked at each other in bewilderment: "What's going on? The horse got frightened and couldn't stop?"

The other person shook his head mysteriously: "The miracle doctor must have her reasons for doing this."

He did this three times, and on the fourth day the horse finally stopped.

Shen Qiyin had no idea about this. After getting off the car, he entered the mansion and went straight to Wei Heng's yard.

When she was passing by the small garden in front of Wei Heng's courtyard, she saw a woman standing with her back to her, and it seemed that she was about to jump into the lake!

In a split second, Shen Qiyin didn't think much about it and pulled the person back completely out of instinct.

She used all her strength to pull the other person back, so she didn't control the force. Although she succeeded in saving the person, both of them staggered back several steps and almost fell.

Unexpectedly, the other party not only did not appreciate it, but also rushed over and pushed her hard. His long nails scratched the side of her neck, leaving a shocking blood mark!

"Shen Qiyin! It's you again!"

Jiang Jiyao stared at her, as if he wanted to eat her alive: "You are full and have nothing better to do! Who asked you to meddle in other people's business?"
