The Cousin Is About to Marry，The Abstinent Young Lord Loses Control Chapter 58: Ruined Engagement

The devil-like voice entered her ears, making Ji Mingzhu’s body instantly stiffen.

She doubted she misheard, yet dared not verify.

"Mingzhu, I’ve been waiting for you for a long ti."

Xie Yunzhen’s voice ca again, the smile on Ji Mingzhu’s lips gradually faded.

Threads of coldness crept up from the tailbone, climbed up her spine, and spread to her limbs.

The cold in her heart was most apparent, making her feel a chill throughout her body.

Ji Mingzhu felt like she was being watched by a beast.

She maintained her posture while speaking to Lady Yuan, keeping her body sideways, not turning to look at the newcor.

The rise and fall of her chest revealed her inner turmoil; she wasn’t as calm as she appeared.

Xie Yunzhen’s gaze fell there, suddenly feeling his days of burning anxiety soothed.

Ji Mingzhu cared about him.

Otherwise, how could there be such a significant emotional fluctuation?

Xie Yunzhen’s gaze was intense, and his eyes could only see Ji Mingzhu.

Having not seen her for many days, he constantly thought of her.

If it weren’t for maintaining his rationality, he would want to hold Ji Mingzhu tightly and kiss her.

Then tell her, never to stay so far away from him again.

He strolled leisurely, step by step, toward Ji Mingzhu’s side.

Standing by her side, Xie Yunzhen lowered his eyes, greedily looking at that lively and beautiful face.

"Mingzhu, when shall we return ho?"

His tone was gentle and lingering, as if speaking to a close person.

He was so close, his crisp breath surrounding Ji Mingzhu.

So forceful, so domineering, leaving her nowhere to hide.

Ji Mingzhu’s body grew stiffer, her gaze turned colder.

There were people coming and going at the mansion’s gate, she had to remain calm, "When I left the capital, I heard the Princely Heir had fallen gravely ill, why not rest well but co out to work instead?"

Xie Yunzhen secretly uttered ’little liar’ in his heart.

She wanted to draw the line, but he refused!

"Woke up and didn’t see you, only then found out you ca to Yangzhou."

"Mingzhu, I ca to take you ho."

Ji Mingzhu was going crazy, did this man even know what should and shouldn’t be said?

What exactly did he intend to do!

Cracks appeared in her calm expression.

This ti, not just her chest heaved, even her breathing grew heavier.

The man was tall, the woman’s figure graceful, standing together they seed perfect.

If Ji Mingzhu weren’t the favored daughter-in-law, Lady Yuan would think so.

Her peripheral vision darted between them, unobtrusively hiding her inquisitiveness.

Anyone who wasn’t blind could see their relationship was highly unusual.

Lady Yuan’s heart sank with a thud.

Could it be that the Commandery Princess disfavored Ji Mingzhu, sending her to Yangzhou?

If they severed ties, it would be fine; everyone could go their own way.

But clearly, Xie Yunzhen didn’t want to let go.

Getting involved with soone so domineering, marrying Ji Mingzhu wouldn’t have issues?

Lady Yuan’s joyful heart slowly sank.

As a guest, regardless of the outco, for the Guan Family’s sake, she would still courteously host Ji Mingzhu.

She must send a letter to the capital to inquire about the situation.

Firstly, to avoid misunderstanding the young lady.

Secondly, a marriage shouldn’t lead to hostility; if there’s indeed sothing between these two, the Yuan Family deserves to know.

After understanding the full story, they’ll decide whether to continue this engagent.

Lady Yuan smiled, patting Ji Mingzhu’s hand.

"I was about to ntion Ah Zhen as our guest, unexpectedly he appeared first. You both must be tired from the journey, settle in first, we’ll discuss other matters later."

Ji Mingzhu felt aggrieved but facing the Yuan Family, could only hold back temporarily.

"Madam, I’m sorry for interrupting."

"We are all family, no need for politeness."

Being led by Lady Yuan, Ji Mingzhu followed into the Yuan Family’s gate.

Xie Yunzhen, being ignored, wasn’t annoyed, shalessly following her.

Compared to life being separated by death, this was nothing.

Even if Ji Mingzhu was angry at him, he enjoyed it.

As long as she didn’t leave him.

Staring at the back of Ji Mingzhu’s head intently, following not too closely.

With a faint smile on his lips, no longer cold and distant.

Rubbing his hands behind him, he needed to co up with a way to quickly take Ji Mingzhu away.

Yuan Changan lived here, and he didn’t like it.

Whether they return to the capital or stay in Yangzhou to play, there cannot be a third person between them!

Ji Mingzhu felt a prickling sensation on her back.

She had thought Xie Yunzhen might pester her but didn’t expect him to arrive in Yangzhou so quickly.

Endless rage surged within her along with a heavy sense of powerlessness.

Could it be that despite reliving a life, she still couldn’t escape Xie Yunzhen?

The Yuan residence was elegant, with small bridges and flowing water, artificial mountains and pavilions, exuding refined taste.

The front and back yards were separated by a garden, with an arched bridge in the middle.

Ji Mingzhu followed Lady Yuan up.

Xie Yunzhen quickened his pace, gently reminding her, "Watch your step."

In the past life, she fell on the steps, which led to a difficult childbirth.

Now seeing her cross a similar bridge made Xie Yunzhen’s chest tighten.

He wished he could pick her up and safely carry her to the other side.

Ji Mingzhu quietly exhaled, barely restraining the urge to vent her anger.

She glanced lightly at Xie Yunzhen, "I’ve often heard people say Young Master doesn’t like ddling. Seeing now... it seems the rumors were false."

She was distancing herself again, Xie Yunzhen’s heart felt a prick.

Wanting to say sothing, but under her cool gaze, he dared not speak intimately.

Afraid of completely angering Ji Mingzhu.

Lady Yuan was perplexed, unable to decipher the relationship between the two.

As a woman, she could feel Ji Mingzhu’s resistance.

It wasn’t about playing hard to get.

But Xie Yunzhen lowering his stance like this was very unusual...

How others perceived it, Tianshui didn’t know.

Only feeling that their Young Master was "shaless and ruthless", ruining Miss’ engagent.

The Yuan Family wasn’t foolish; they would certainly notice sothing amiss.

If they had reservations, surely they wouldn’t want to discuss marriage.

Tianshui thought of the two in the Duke Mansion.

If they disagreed with Miss entering, who knows how it would end.

Sighing silently, keeping his distance.

So matters weren’t for him to understand.

Lady Yuan smiled, smoothing the situation, "Ah Zhen is cold outside but warm inside, don’t believe the rumors."

Xie Yunzhen pursed his lips, "I’ll change."

Ji Mingzhu: "..."

Lady Yuan: "..."

Amazed Gold: "..."

Ji Mingzhu’s face turned red, almost fainting from anger.

This man was clearly against her!

She wanted no entanglent, no return to the Duke Mansion, no difficulty...

She didn’t want history to repeat!

Xie Yunzhen repeatedly ignored her wishes; if this was his so-called affection, she found it annoying!

Knowing she ca to discuss marriage, he still ssed around at the male’s family, didn’t he fear embarrassing her?

Ji Mingzhu felt a sour heartache.

Whether it was the past life’s Xie Yunzhen or the current him, he only cared for his own happiness.

He didn’t care about others’ feelings!
