209 Then Can I Propose Marriage With Madam Bai Tomorrow?

Jin Lan looked shocked. Granny Zeng thought that she had confirmed Jin Lan’s thoughts and smiled. “You don’t have to be shy. If you’re interested in him, Madam is willing to ask Old Master Sheng for you. If you get married, you’ll be freed of your maidservant status.”

Jin Lan was touched that Madam was willing to do this for her. Her eyes were red as she said excitedly, “No, Jin Lan doesn’t have feelings for Old Master Sheng.”

“Old Master Sheng is like the clouds in the sky. Jin Lan is just a servant. How can I dare to have any improper thoughts about Old Master Sheng?”

She spoke sincerely. Granny Zeng asked doubtfully, “Then you..?”

!!
Since Madam already knew, there was no need for Jin Lan to hide it. She said shyly, “I like Guard Lin, who is by Old Master Sheng’s side. I went to help Madam pick lotus flowers once and almost fell into the pond. He was the one who saved me.”

So it was Guard Lin. When Granny Zeng found out, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Girl, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Sheng Huaixuan was once the number one rich businessman in the Yan Kingdom. He had seen all kinds of beauties. Granny Zeng felt that the possibility of Sheng Huaixuan taking a fancy to Jin Lan was not high, but Lin Yue’s status was similar to Jin Lan’s, so the chances of this marriage succeeding were much higher.

Jin Lan said shyly, “He doesn’t know how I feel. Besides, Madam is so good to me, I don’t want to leave her.”

Granny Zeng patted her palm comfortingly. “Our Jin Lan is so good, and Guard Lin doesn’t have a marriage partner. He’s a good candidate. Compared to you staying in the Cui family to serve Madam, Madam hopes that you can find someone to accompany you for the rest of your life.”

Jin Lan’s eyes were filled with tears. “Granny, I really can’t bear to leave Madam!”

Granny Zeng smiled kindly. “A grown woman should marry, and a grown man should marry. If you stay by Madam’s side, others will think that Madam is forcing you to stay. Don’t worry, I’ll help you ask around.”

When Jin Lan thought of Lin Yue, she could not resist the temptation of marrying someone she liked. Her face turned red and she nodded shyly.

Granny Zeng smiled and said, “Good child.”

The next day, Granny Zeng arrived at Bai Wutong’s house.

Stinky rode over on the leisure looking Xiaobai and kept slapping it with his small hands. “Giddy-up!”

Xiaobai did not move as if it had no bones.

Lin Yue leaned to the side, his gaze on Qingfeng’s back, his face filled with resentment.

Could it be that this woman would only understand what he meant if he said it himself!

Lin Yue thought of how he would be mercilessly rejected by Qingfeng, making the courage that he had just gathered to dissipate.

Forget it. No one wanted to marry her anyway.

He had to suppress himself first!

Lin Yue was cheering for himself, when Granny Zeng came.

While Bai Wutong was practising, Lin Yue carried Stinky and went up to her. “Why is Granny Zeng looking for Madam Bai?”

Granny Zeng glanced at Bai Wutong who was cultivating and beamed at Lin Yue. “I’m not here for Madam Bai. I’m here for Guard Lin.”

Lin Yue asked curiously, “Looking for me?”

Granny Zeng directly explained her intentions. “It’s been a while since we settled down. It’s time for Guard Lin to get married and have children. I wonder if you have someone you like?”

She had carefully asked around and found out that Lin Yue was not engaged, so she came to test his intentions.

As long as Lin Yue said no, she would tell him about Jin Lan and let him propose marriage.

When Lin Yue heard her mention the person she liked, he suddenly looked at Qingfeng.

Coincidentally, when Bai Wutong saw that Granny Zeng had arrived, Qingfeng also felt that she was almost done practicing that day, so they walked over together.

Coincidentally, she heard Granny Zeng’s question.

When Bai Wutong heard this, she knew that Granny Zeng wanted to matchmake Lin Yue. She glanced at Qingfeng from the corner of her eye. Qingfeng’s expression remained unchanged, and there was not even a ripple in her eyes.

Lin Yue met her cold gaze, and his heart gradually sank. He clenched his fists in disappointment.

Indeed, they had once been after each other’s lives. How could Qingfeng be interested in him?

If she wanted to, she would have a bunch of obedient dark guards for her to choose from.

His martial arts were not that skilled either. He looked rough and had a foul mouth. If she was a woman, she would probably not fancy him.

The glimmer in Lin Yue’s eyes darkened, but he did not notice the vortex stirring under Qingfeng’s eyes.

Lin Yue had been staring behind her in a daze. Granny Zeng turned around and saw Bai Wutong and Qingfeng. She thought that he was embarrassed and smiled. “If Guard Lin doesn’t have someone he likes.”

Before she could finish, a cold voice interrupted. “He already has someone in his heart.”

The smile on Granny Zeng’s face froze, and even Bai Wutong was stunned.

Lin Yue was even more dumbfounded.

She, she, she… what did she say?

His empty heart was suddenly filled with excitement.

Granny Zeng had clearly asked around. Lin Yue did not have anyone he liked. Could it be that Qingfeng was finding an excuse to help Lin Yue out?

Granny Zeng looked at Lin Yue again. After not getting any denial from him, she understood.

Even if it was an excuse to get out of trouble, Lin Yue had no intention of getting married for the time being.

Granny Zeng thought of the anticipation on Jin Lan’s face and shook her head helplessly. In the end, they were not fated.

Granny Zeng tactfully bade farewell, and Bai Wutong left the two of them alone.

Presumably, they had a lot to talk about now.

Lin Yue was still dizzy. When did Granny Zeng and the others leave, and what did they say when they left? His memories had become mush. His eyes seemed to have been frozen as he stared at Qingfeng, but he also seemed to suspect that what he had heard earlier was just his imagination.

Lin Yue reached out and pinched himself. He was pleasantly surprised to find that it hurt. He was not dreaming.

He avoided eye contact and glanced shyly at the calm Qingfeng. “You know about it?”

Qingfeng’s gaze fell on his flushed face, and for the first time, her handsome-looking face curled into an obvious smile. “Yes.”

Lin Yue suddenly looked up. Their gazes met in the air, and the air was filled with electricity.

Qingfeng said that she knew. Did he mean that she was interested in him too?

Lin Yue looked at her in disbelief and confusion.

Qingfeng’s smile widened.

Lin Yue received confirmation from her eyes. Instantly, his confidence soared and he blurted out, “Then can I ask propose marriage with Madam Bai tomorrow?”

As soon as he said that, he wished he could find a hole to hide in.

What should he do if he was in too much of a hurry and scared her away?!

He squirmed, wanting to take that back. The cool voice of Qingfeng sounded again. “Sure.”

Qingfeng was too straightforward. Lin Yue felt like he was dreaming. “What did you say?”

Qingfeng raised an eyebrow. “Sure.”

Lin Yue did not expect happiness to come so quickly. A sunflower bloomed on his rough face. He was too excited and hugged Qingfeng.

Qingfeng did not push him away and let him hug her. Only when their temperatures completely fused and Lin Yue’s excitement gradually calmed down did she say, “However, we can only get married after I am cured of the poison.”

Lin Yue had no objections at all. He quickly nodded and smiled brightly. “I’ll listen to you. I’ll listen to everything you say.”

However, he thought to himself that he would go to the pharmacy later and urge Gu Zhongxun to quickly concoct the antidote. Then he would go to Sheng Huaixuan to collect his small vault and give it all to Qingfeng.
