Chapter 319: Am I Dreaming? (1)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

This was something she could never dream of.

She couldn’t believe that such a gentleman would come to the Yuan clan to propose marriage in person!

Yuan Hui felt that it was a bit surreal.

She wondered if she would suddenly wake up later and find out that everything that happened was only a figment of her imagination.

“Huihui, you can stop worrying about the Ye clan and the Hong clan. With Duke

Ding behind us, they definitely won’t dare to offend the Yuan clan again.” Zhao Chuchu was happy for Yuan Hui that she would marry a man that was worth her love as opposed to being forced to marry scums like Second Mr. Ye and Third Mr. Hong.

Yuan Hui blushed. “Chuchu, please tell me I’m not dreaming.”

“No, you’re not. Qiao Heting personally came to propose marriage to you. He represented Duke Ding’s residence. There must be a hundred families at least out there who want to marry you. You’ve gotta stop thinking too little of yourself.” Zhao Chuchu patted Yuan Hui. “See, how can a beautiful young lady like you be unappealing to a man like Qiao Heting?

Look at those generous gifts prepared by Duke Ding’s residence. If they so much as think less of you than you expect, would they invest so much time in preparing the gift? Huihui, you are not as bad as you think. Not all men are into shrewd and capable women. Some men just admire women who find a hero in them.”

Yuan Hui whispered under her breath, “Really?”

“Of course, it is true. Otherwise, what was Qiao Heting doing here? Duke Ding’s residence owes nothing to you. They don’t have to propose marriage to repay your kindness. Just don’t be paranoid. Qiao Heting knows about what happened in Yuanjiang County better than anyone else.”

“But I’m still worried. I don’t think I would be good enough for him.”

“Don’t be crazy. It’s not up to you to decide whether you are good enough for him or not. So long as he likes you, you would be good enough for him.”

Yuan Hui looked at Zhao Chuchu. Slowly, she showed her smile and said, “Chuchu, it seems that you are the only one who has always been there to answer my question and comfort me. You would always tell me what is good and what is not. I must be the luckiest person in the world to have a friend like you.”

“Then, cherish our friendship and never betray me. Huihui, I want you to be happy, always. So don’t doubt yourself, and don’t feel that you don’t deserve Qiao Heting.”

“Okay.”

“Good girl.”

Zhao Chuchu stroked Yuan Hui’s head.

“Let’s go. Let’s go over there.”

“I don’t think it’s such a good idea for me to go. Chuchu, can you give me a break?”

Yuan Hui didn’t have the courage to go and see Qiao Heting.

She just wanted to lock herself in her room and think about everything carefully.

Because it was too much of a surprise to her.

Qiao Heting was the prince in the hearts of countless girls. However, he had come all the way from Imperial City to Guangqing Province to propose marriage to her.

Yuan Hui felt like she was in a dream.

She needed time to recover from the ups and downs, or she feared she might lose her cool when she saw Qiao Heting.

She didn’t want that.

“All right. I’ll go check it out.” Zhao Chuchu knew that Yuan Hui was shy and didn’t force her.

She wanted to go and see the fun anyway.

Qiao Heting had done three things in a row as soon as he came to Guangqing Province. His deeds should have been all over the town by now.

But the Ye clan also needed to be taught a lesson.

Maybe Qiao Heting came to Guangqing Province not just to propose marriage.

The secret guards did not look like ordinary people. Perhaps they were sent here by the man behind Qiao Heting.

Such a benevolent prince sure heard about the mess of Guangqing Province.

Proposing a marriage would act as a cover for him to carry out his plan.

When Zhao Chuchu arrived at the living room, Old Mrs. Yuan and Qiao Heting were talking happily.

“Originally, my mother believed that it would be more appropriate for us to send a matchmaker. But I think nothing says about our sincerity better than my own presence here. Forgive me for being so blunt,” Qiao Heting said sincerely.

“I met Miss Yuan twice at my uncle’s in Yuanjiang County and couldn’t get her out of my mind, so I wrote back and begged my mother to help me propose marriage, and that’s how I got that letter from my mother. But I was afraid that the matchmaker would make a mess out of things, so I took it upon myself to come here.”

When Old Mrs. Yuan heard this, she did not think Qiao Heting was rude, but she felt that Qiao Heting was sincere.

He was the son of Duke Ding, and it was rare for him to go to such a length for

Yuan Hui.

With the Ye clan and the Hong clan’s actions in the first place, Qiao Heting’s decent actions were brought to a new height.

He was going to marry Yuan Hui as his official wife. When they married, Yuan Hui would be addressed as the spouse of the heir of a noble family. She would be an important woman with royal orders in the court.

In terms of their family background, the Yuan clan was definitely the inferior one.

Old Mrs. Yuan had every reason to be nappy about tne marriage..
