The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

"Miss, I have also heard something," Qingyi paused and said softly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also come to Nanling."

Xue Jinhua's hand paused suddenly. After a moment's thought, she understood the situation in Nanling and also saw through the Crown Prince's intention of coming to Nanling.

"It's okay. As long as we don't confront him head-on, I'm sure nothing will happen."

At night, Xue Jinhua did not sleep well. The stuffy environment made her toss and turn in bed.

As soon as she stood up, she was surprised to find a figure in the room, and she was so nervous that her throat seemed to jump out.

"you're awake?"

The deep voice was like a heavy hammer, pulling her thoughts back suddenly.

Xue Jinhua also recognized his identity. Her aura suddenly changed, and her words unconsciously revealed an excitement that she herself had not noticed. "Second Master, are you back to Nanling?"

"Well, I just arrived a short time ago. I am still a step late after all."

catch up?

Xue Jinhua was stunned for a moment. After a long while, she came to her senses and realized that he was talking about the betrothal proposal.

"In fact, some things are just a formality. I don't care."

"Also, is the betrothal gift you offered too expensive? Actually, being too conspicuous may not be a good thing."

Originally, the groom had to come in person to propose marriage, but the Qian family only sent a housekeeper.

But Xue Jinhua didn't feel that he didn't take it seriously. Instead, she felt that he was being a little too ostentatious.

After all, her current status does not suit her to be so high-profile.

Not to mention that people outside knew nothing about her identity, the short-sighted grandparents and grandchildren of the Wen family alone were enough to give her a headache.

"They are just some external things, no need to care about them."

That's all real money, and the quantity is so huge, how could I not care?

"Besides, the Qian family's marriage in Nanling is a sensational event. It would be harder than climbing to the sky to keep it a secret."

Xue Jinhua, "..."

"By the way, if you think the date is not suitable, you can change it." He did not seem to want to dwell on the issue of the betrothal gift and changed the subject.

Xue Jinhua felt puzzled and raised her head, just in time to meet his cautious and inquiring gaze.

The light in the house was a little dim, and the windows were half open. The early summer in Nanling was like a cluster of stars, looming.

Under the silver mask, those eyes were like a huge whirlpool, attracting her deeply like a magnet.

"I'm sure you know my fate. I'm destined to be alone and unlucky in marriage and children. If you marry me... you might die."

Xue Jinhua was afraid of heat, so even though it was only early summer, she was wearing thin pajamas. The transparent gauze on her shoulders looked like cicada wings.

The shiny shoulder armor and smooth curves made his breath a little disordered.

"You just came back from the gates of hell. You should cherish your life."

"Whether it's about marriage or wedding date, I don't know what you think yet."

Xue Jinhua's heart seemed to be burning with fire. This was the first time in all these years that she met someone who could put himself in her shoes and think about her.

"But Master Tiandao said that I was born with a good fate. Maybe I won't die?"

"You don't need to believe his nonsense. He is just talking on paper. No one has verified it personally, so how can we know whether it will succeed?" The second master's voice was still as steady as a mountain. "There is no need to take this risk."

"But if you don't try, how can you know you won't succeed?"

Xue Jinhua didn't know why, but these words came out of her mouth without thinking.

She looked so anxious, as if she couldn't wait to marry the man in front of her.

The second master was also stunned by this sudden attitude, "..."

Xue Jinzhao's face was as red as the sunset glow. "What I mean is... this is a method after all, why not give it a try?"

"Are you disgusted by my past?" Xue Jinhua muttered softly.

Erye couldn't help but laugh. Even through the mask, Xue Jinhua finally felt a hint of warmth from him.

"You don't mind my previous marriage, so why should I care about your past?" The Second Master's heart felt as if it was gently brushed by a warm current.

In Xue Jinhua's previous life, the word "rules" was deeply engraved in her heart like a brand. No matter what she did, she would first consider whether it was in accordance with etiquette.

After living a new life, she has long forgotten those rules. Now she just wants to live a good life.

Only as long as you are alive can you have the light of hope.

"To be honest, according to my fate, even if I don't marry you, I think I won't live long."

Xue Jinhua's words had hidden meaning. She made this choice not only for you, but also for herself.

"Then have you ever thought that maybe Master Tiandao deceived you?"

"I understand better than anyone that Master Tiandao has not deceived me."

Having experienced all the ups and downs in her previous life, how could she not tell whether Master Tiandao was lying or not?

"Miss Xue, don't worry, there is still a month." The second master's face was as calm as water, and he took a sign from his body, "This is for you."

"This is………"

Xue Jinhua just stared quietly and did not move forward to take it.

Master Qian raised his eyebrows slightly, took her hand and stuffed the sign into her hand.

Perhaps when he was doing these actions, he himself was not aware that the warm touch made Xue Jinhua's mind once again reflect the touch of his lips when he was rescued that day...

"This is a token of the Qian family. If you regret it, you can send someone here at any time."

"Not only this matter, even if you are not living a satisfactory life in the Wen family, you can always come to me."

Perhaps realizing that his previous words were too cold, Master Qian added another sentence, which was like ice-cold water that poured directly into Xue Jinhua's heart.

"I always thought that Master Qian was a responsible man..." Xue Jinhua's beautiful eyes were as cold as ice. She stuffed the sign in her hand back without hesitation. However, Master Qian did not reach out to take it, and the sign fell straight to the ground.

The crisp sound was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two people, leaving only a bit of awkwardness.

"If you haven't decided to marry me yet, you shouldn't have come to visit me so late at night. You could have found a suitable time to tell me the truth in broad daylight."

"Miss Xue, it's my fault for not thinking it through properly, which led to your misunderstanding..." The Second Master's heart was pounding, and he was so nervous that he seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.

"It's not that I don't want to marry you, but I'm filled with fear. I'm afraid you'll regret it, and I don't want to cause you any harm..."

"You keep saying you don't want to hurt me, but your actions are like sharp blades, ruthlessly cutting scars in my heart."

"Second Master Qian, if you really don't want me to regret my whole life, then you shouldn't have come to me in the first place, let alone help me... or even make this engagement."

"Your going back on your word now is by no means a blessing to me, but a great humiliation."

"You planned this marriage carefully, but now you want me to think about it. Are you kidding me, Master Qian?" Xue Jin said angrily, "If Master Qian really doesn't want to, then take this sign back. Tomorrow I will send the betrothal gifts back intact. It doesn't matter if this marriage doesn't happen."

Anyway, she is alone now, and she is the eldest daughter of the Wen family. She has died once, so she has long forgotten about the so-called reputation.

Master Qian probably didn't expect that she would be angry, and she even misinterpreted his meaning, which was really ridiculous.

At this moment, he no longer had those concerns and bent down to pick up the sign that fell on the ground. This sign was a treasure that many people dreamed of, but she regarded it as dirt.

"Miss Xue, I have already given you the opportunity to choose, so don't regret it." The coldness in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by a rock-like firmness, "But, you have no room for regrets now."

…………

After confirming Xue Jinhua's feelings, the Qian family sent her gifts almost every day.

"Miss, the Qian family treats you so well. Yesterday they gave you silk and satin, and today they give you nourishing foods. It's as if they were afraid that you would be wronged in the Wen family. You didn't see the second young lady. She has had jealous red eyes for several times."

Although it seemed like she was being doted on, only Xue Jinhua knew in her heart that this was Master Qian apologizing for what happened that night.

In fact, she had figured it out long ago. If Master Qian was really irresponsible, why would he come to ask about her wishes?

Perhaps he was really afraid that he would die suddenly on his wedding night like the previous ladies.
