Chapter 1661: Chapter 1663: Majestic Scrutiny
Their eyes t, and he saw Chiang Xiao’s reddened eyes, with tears welling up in them, making his heart tighten once more.
“Do you want
to leave?” Ah Liu asked her softly.
Chiang Xiao nodded. “Yes.”
Ah Liu hesitated for a mont, but then agreed.
“Alright, then I will move out.”
Cheng Cheng was instantly speechless.
What was going on?
Could this really be the natural bond between father and daughter?
Why couldn’t Ah Liu refuse Chiang Xiao? Whatever she said, he was willing to do?
It should be known, in the past, he had said many tis that Ah Liu wouldn’t leave if he didn’t want to. Now, just because Chiang Xiao nodded once and said she hoped he would go, he agreed?
Chiang Xiao didn’t expect him to agree so easily either. She was taken aback for a mont and asked, “Aren’t you afraid it’s unsafe outside anymore?”
Ah Liu’s gaze fell on ng Xinian’s face. “With him here, it should be safe.”
ng Xinian was speechless, so now he was trusted again because he’s good at catching bad guys?
He didn’t know who just a mont ago wouldn’t even give him a pear.
Yeah, and sweet eggs weren’t for him either.
Chiang Xiao burst into laughter.
Seeing her laugh, Ah Liu also smiled slightly.
When the two of them smiled, they actually looked more alike.
Both Cheng Cheng and ng Xinian were sowhat dazed by the sight.
If soone said they weren’t father and daughter, who would believe it?
They didn’t have much ti off, and since Ah Liu was willing to leave with them, they stayed only one night. Early the next morning, they packed up their belongings, and Cheng Cheng went to inform the neighbors and the village chief, then they left Sidao Gou together with Ah Liu.
The way out was slower.
Because Ah Liu didn’t walk quickly, his posture was graceful, and sotis when he saw a scenery, he would stop to admire it for a mont, and even recite a few fitting poems to Chiang Xiao.
He kept an eye on Chiang Xiao, as long as she didn’t say she was tired or needed rest, he kept insisting on following along. So Chiang Xiao, looking back at him, thought he might be tired and suggested they take a break.
Along the way, Ah Liu talked with her about a lot of things and even inquired about her relationship with ng Xinian.
After knowing they were engaged, he often looked at ng Xinian with a sowhat scrutinizing gaze.
Strange as it was, even though he knew Ah Liu was sowhat off, that exact scrutinizing look pressured ng Xinian a bit, making his forehead sweat.
Ah Liu’s eyes bore a certain dignity.
It was an indescribable aura, a certain confidence.
ng Xinian was secretly astonished.
Ah Liu scrutinized him for quite a while but didn’t say anything.
However, after reaching the town, Ah Liu found an opportunity and quietly asked Chiang Xiao.
“Little, tell , is your engagent your own desire, or is it just due to the orders of your parents, the words of a matchmaker?”
Chiang Xiao was startled and looked back at ng Xinian, who was lining up to buy tickets with Cheng Cheng.
“You don’t need to look at him or be afraid of him.”
Ah Liu continued, “In the old society, indeed, one emphasized the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers, all blind marriages devoid of affection, with low status for won, and no right to resist. But I know it’s different now, and I think you’re great, you don’t need others to decide your marriage for you. Tell , if you don’t actually wish to marry him, then I’ll help you explain clearly to both your parents and elders, and this engagent will be annulled. You can find a husband you truly like in the future, okay?”
