Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

Chapter 237: Shi Jingchan's Magical Operation

"He originally wanted to propose to you in person, but he looked for you twice but failed to meet you. So he came to visit you today and told dad what happened between you two in Shuiyunjian that day. He came to propose to dad." Li Changan stared at Mu Yao with burning eyes. Seeing that her eyes were bigger than copper bells, he couldn't help laughing.

Shi Jingchan was born with a handsome man who was unique in the world, and he was also backed by an aristocratic family with a deep foundation, so it was an excellent marriage.

Mu Yao only felt a violent storm coming towards her, blowing her into a mess in an instant.

That day... That day he was not the first... How could this man have the nerve to come to my house and propose marriage?

He twists a string of white jade Buddhist beads all day long. On the surface, he looks cold, aloof, and distant, but in fact he is a gentleman and a scoundrel, hypocritical.

"Dad, what did he tell you?" Mu Yao was so angry that her lips turned three parts white.

The atmosphere became cold. Li Changan took a sip of "June Yellow", lowered his head and pondered for a while before speaking quietly: "When you were poisoned, he saved you from the hands of the Gu King, and saved your life. This is the first reason. No matter who was right or wrong in the water and clouds that day, at least something did happen. This is the second reason. As for the third reason, Shi Jingchan is very handsome and has a good family background. He is a perfect match for you. Dad is happy to see you. What do you think?"

Li Changan avoided the most crucial reason. He was worried that his daughter would fight with that boy.

Shi Jingchan was determined to marry Mu Yao today. If she didn't agree, he would have to resort to the law. No matter what the result was, both sides would suffer losses.

"Dad, you..." Mu Yao looked at her father in confusion. He was acting very strange today. Why would he open his mouth to ask this just for Shi Jingchan?

She was speechless for a moment, and stood there in a daze, as if thinking about something.

"Yaoyao, as the saying goes, a life-saving favor should be repaid with one's own body. Shi Jingchan is willing to sacrifice his own life for you. This thought alone is enough to make Dad look at him differently. What's more, with his appearance and background, he is impeccable in the world. As a marriage partner, Dad can't find any reason to refuse. Regarding marriage, Dad has never asked you to do anything, and I will not force you to be with someone you don't like. But this time, Dad hopes you will think twice." The more Li Changan spoke, the heavier his heart became.

When Shi Jingchan came, he was in a very low mood, full of death and sadness. Something must have happened between the two of them, which made this young man miss his lover so much that he made the decision to burn his boats. Either die in silence or explode in silence. There are some things that Li Changan cannot say, saying them will only increase the estrangement.

Weird! Has Dad been brainwashed by Shi Jingchan?

Mu Yao's eyes were filled with disbelief, and she held back her lips several times.

Li Changan's eyes flickered, he stroked his beard, put aside the topic for the time being, and changed the subject: "You came back so late, are you with Yu Heng?"

Mu Yao gathered her thoughts and nodded, saying, "Yes. He will take me back to Qingnang Manor to meet my family the day after tomorrow." After she finished speaking, two red clouds appeared on her cheeks, like peach blossoms just blooming, making her look extremely charming.

Li Changan still had something to not understand, so he smiled and said three good words. He knew that his daughter would be successful immediately, and any eligible man could not resist this deadly and beautiful opium.

"Dad, I want to go around the neighborhood tomorrow and buy a house in my own name, so that they can all come and live with me with peace of mind." Mu Yao expressed Yu Heng's idea. She wanted to hear her father's opinion.

Li Changan paused, a little unable to follow his daughter's train of thought. He scraped the lid of the bowl a few times, thought for a while and nodded, "Chu Tang, Wu Shang, Yu Heng, including Xiao Dou Xue, are all fine. Qing Cheng's place is also fine. But as for He Lian Yun, Xie Ci and Ji Qi, it would be better if they could live there, especially Ji Qi."

"Helian Yun and Xie Ci have the support of aristocratic families, and Xie Ci is from Beiming. Wouldn't it be a joke for people to let them live in your courtyard? Marrying into a high-ranking family does not mean you will only live with your husband. You have to take care of the whole family properly. They are not as free and unburdened as Chu Tang and Wu Shang. As for Ji Qi, it is even more inappropriate. Don't even mention it, so as not to hurt the harmony between husband and wife."

"By the way, Shi Jingchan also has the support of a sect, but his situation is similar to Yu Heng's, so it's not a big problem."

Why did Dad bring up Shi Jingchan again? It sounded like he already treated him as his son-in-law.

"Dad, why didn't you mention Shaoyou?" Mu Yao asked suspiciously.

"Shaoyou..." Li Changan pondered for a while and nodded.

"That's fine." As long as his identity is not recognized by Emperor Qingyuan, he is not considered a member of the royal family, and where he lives is up to his wife.

"Yaoyao, go talk to Jingchan tomorrow. He seems to be depressed, and if he doesn't resolve it for a long time, it will inevitably harm his health. In Dad's opinion, he is no less capable than the eight husbands around you."

"Wherever an excellent girl goes, she is like a bright pearl with a halo, a beautiful jade with a glow, attracting equally excellent men. Now that Shi Jingchan has met you, I'm afraid no other girl will be able to catch his eye."

Mu Yao returned to the main courtyard with her father's teachings in her mind, recalling his every word, and for the first time seriously considering the possibility of her marriage with Shi Jingchan.

After washing up, Wang Yanzhi still hadn't returned.

Mu Yao couldn't sleep, so she went to the kitchen to prepare the night porridge. While she was doing it, she was thinking about Shi Jingchan, and before she knew it, she had finished making five snacks.

When Wang Yanzhi returned, the sound of the third watch bell could be heard from the temple in the forest in the distance.

The lights in the house flickered, illuminating his wife's clear figure, and there seemed to be a smell of hot fireworks wafting out.

The tip of his nose twitched, and the faint fragrant smell penetrated into his body, making him unable to help but speed up his pace.

"Yaoyao, what did you do that smells so good?"

On the table was a charcoal-warmed casserole, salad lettuce, pumpkin egg custard, meat patties and crispy pork.

"Shaoyou, come and try the seafood porridge I cooked." Mu Yao smiled and opened the lid of the pot. The thick rice grains were wrapped in amber soup with a fragrant aroma, and it was filled with big red shrimps, clams and squid.

Mu Yao sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions and coriander, and her mouth instantly became salivating.

After Wang Yanzhi washed up, he sat down at the table eagerly. Every dish in front of him made him more hungry.

He ate slowly, savoring his wife's thoughtfulness in every bite, and was reluctant to swallow it.

Today's life seems like a dream, right in front of our eyes, but it still feels extremely unreal.

"Yaoyao, you said you would cook for me for the rest of your life." He spoke in a hoarse voice, looking at his wife with bright eyes.

"Yes, for a lifetime." Mu Yao smiled brightly, opened her cherry lips and made a promise.

Wang Yanzhi felt a burning sensation in his heart, and he nodded heavily, enduring the sourness in his nose.

A promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold, no need to swear, plant expectations and let time bear witness.
