The Cousin Is About to Marry,The Abstinent Young Lord Loses Control Chapter 66: The Young Master Will Not Kill Innocents Indiscr
Yuan Changan spoke candidly.
His pitch-black eyes were filled with sincerity, completely different from Xie Yunzhen’s obsessive and forceful manner.
Under his gaze, Ji Mingzhu felt respect and cherishing.
At that mont, ripples appeared in her heart.
Subtle waves spread circle by circle, slowly extending into the distance.
The world is harsh on won; in others’ eyes, she and Xie Yunzhen had been intimately involved.
There were only three paths left for her.
She could either marry Xie Yunzhen.
Or retreat into solitude and spend the rest of her life under the quiet light of the monastery.
If rumors arose, it wouldn’t be impossible for them to destroy her.
Yuan Changan witnessed that scene, yet at this mont he expressed his desire to marry her.
Ji Mingzhu couldn’t help but ask, "You don’t mind?"
The man lightly shook his head, "That was just an accident, and you are also a victim."
As long as Miss Ji doesn’t have feelings for Xie Yunzhen, and doesn’t intentionally entangle with him, why hold onto it?
If he loves her, truly wants to marry her.
What he should do is feel sympathy for her, protect her, and help her escape the quagmire.
She is a victim, if there is any bla, it should fall on Xie Yunzhen.
Pressing the area of his abdon, he felt a piercing pain.
It had long been heard that Xie Yunzhen was skilled in both literary and martial arts; now it seems his actions are quite sinister!
Afraid of being scolded by Miss Ji, he deliberately chose places unseen.
Although he lost the fight, as long as he vented his anger for Ji Mingzhu, in Yuan Changan’s view, he was victorious.
Countering Ji Mingzhu, "At that ti, I didn’t step in to stop him, do you think I’m a coward?"
Ji Mingzhu shook her head, "No."
He preserved her dignity and composure, keeping her from a more awkward situation.
The affair didn’t escalate; now she can feign peace, pretend nothing happened.
Yuan Changan relaxedly smiled, "Then, Miss Ji, would you consider granting an identity, so I can rightfully protect you?"
Ji Mingzhu gazed directly into the man’s eyes, trying to find traces of deceit and pretense.
She found none.
People are the best at disguising themselves, Ji Mingzhu didn’t know if her judgnt was correct.
But at this mont, she was moved by Yuan Changan’s initiative and candor.
She no longer wanted to be controlled by Xie Yunzhen.
She wanted to be brave for herself, just this once.
Coming to Yangzhou involved an elent of finding the right match, now she just made a round trip to return to her original place.
"Regarding Xie Yunzhen..."
Yuan Changan understood her concerns, "Besides life and death, everything is trivial, the Young Master wouldn’t kill innocents."
Ji Mingzhu trusted this.
Whether on the battlefield or managing floods in the south, Xie Yunzhen worked tirelessly, each ti braving life-threatening dangers.
He saved countless lives.
He is a hero, no doubt.
But she was truly exhausted, neither wanting to drudge through past tragedies nor return to the capital to face the turbulent storm.
Whether Xie Yunzhen has feelings for her or not does not change her decision.
Seeing Yuan Changan’s face full of certainty, Ji Mingzhu curiously asked, "How do you plan to deal with him?"
The young lady’s eyes were large and bright, clear and pure, as if untouched by the world.
Under her gaze, the tip of Yuan Changan’s ears flushed red, burning intensely.
By nature unrestrained, whatever he did, he always managed adeptly.
Facing Ji Mingzhu, his calm and composure vanished, his certainty disappeared.
No different from a young rascal.
Clenching his fist against his lips, he pretended to cough, finally suppressing the frantic nervousness and helplessness inside.
Calmly said, "Grandfather was once the Imperial Tutor, deeply bonded as teacher and student with the Emperor, I can submit a request for the Emperor to grant a marriage."
As long as the Emperor grants the marriage, no one could easily disrupt this union.
Ji Mingzhu didn’t understand court affairs, but she knew one thing.
Everything has a price tag behind it.
Those in power excel at balancing grace with authority.
Granting a marriage is grace.
Granting grace, surely they would seek compensation from sowhere else, maximizing benefits.
"What conditions would the Emperor propose?"
Yuan Changan marveled at her acun, "Don’t worry, since conditions are proposed, they must be within what I and the Yuan Family can bear."
The Yuan Family isn’t at the center of power, though it has nurous disciples, it’s not yet a threat to the Emperor.
As long as Xie Yunzhen doesn’t interfere, the Emperor is bound to grant the marriage.
If it doesn’t work out, the family still has ironclad guarantees.
But this cannot be ntioned.
Yuan Changan didn’t want Ji Mingzhu to feel pressured.
She finally took her first step, he just wants to clear all obstacles, so she can move forward courageously.
Yuan Changan seed very confident, so Ji Mingzhu truly set her mind at ease.
The Yuan Family’s upbringing was upright, Yuan Changan himself was knowledgeable and gentle.
Compared to Xie Yunzhen’s domineering ways, he was a completely different kind of gentleman.
Clasping her hands together, Ji Mingzhu asked the final question, "How about explaining to the elders?"
Yuan Changan’s eyes lit up, the curve of his smile couldn’t be suppressed.
A smile escaped, "I’ll handle it."
Seeing Ji Mingzhu still unsettled, he warmly said, "My mother is gentle, always thinking less trouble is better, but she has no objections to you, and my grandmother feels a deep affinity with you."
"The bracelet...is ant for a granddaughter-in-law."
After saying this, Yuan Changan couldn’t help but blush.
He didn’t stop it at the ti, indicating he wanted to marry Ji Mingzhu.
To have children with her.
To grow old together!
Yuan Changan had already paved the way before her, Ji Mingzhu felt if she hesitated any longer, she would be letting down his intentions.
Whatever the outco, that’s a matter for the future.
Right now, she should be a bit braver.
The slight frown gradually relaxed, her eyes beca lively, her petal-like lips curled into a beautiful arc, she pressed the small bead of her lip, appearing a bit shy.
In an instant, her radiance overshadowed everything around.
The sound of her heart pounding ca again.
Yuan Changan’s voice tightened, "Miss Ji, are you willing to walk this path with ?"
Ji Mingzhu clicked her tongue, "Before coming here, Aunt kept praising you, dashing and suave, why are you not your usual free-spirited self now?"
Yuan Changan chuckled softly, "Madam’s praise is undeserved."
The word ’Madam’ seed to refer to Mrs. Guan in the distant capital.
Or perhaps to Ji Mingzhu.
Both blushed furiously.
Normally eloquent Mr. Yuan stamred, "Miss Ji, let’s have breakfast first."
"Call Mingzhu."
Mingzhu...
Just thinking of those two words, Yuan Changan felt joy.
Too nervous, he felt a sense of losing his voice.
Those two words brewed on his lips for a few monts, his lips parted slightly, finally calling out.
"Mingzhu."
Tender and affectionate.
His eyes held fragnts of light, filled with deep affection, like it could make one drown.
Ji Mingzhu suddenly dared not look any longer.
Lowering her eyes, "Young Master Yuan, let’s have a al first, I still want to pay respects to the old lady."
Yuan Changan recovered, taking a seat opposite Ji Mingzhu, "Call Changan."
