Chapter 2250 Another Truth 11.0

"General, please be patient and listen to me slowly." Xiao Fengqi smiled bitterly and glanced at Shen Cha, who had a very bad expression. "There is a certain disagreement between my elders and your elders on this matter. The two people's ideas should be completely different, and they are poles apart!"

"Are there any disagreements?" Seeing Xiao Fengqi nod, Shen Cha thought for a moment and said, "Then tell me, what kind of disagreements are they?"

"Your elders thought my elders left without saying goodbye that night, but my elders thought she was very embarrassed that night."

"Embarrassed? Why?"

"Because she was proposed to, which was something she had never thought about. So, she said that she almost ran away at that time." Xiao Fengqi sighed softly, "Because they drank a little bit of wine that night, your elders looked a little drunk. No one knows whether they said drunken words. She just thought that if she didn't leave, when they sobered up the next day, they would both remember this. Wouldn't it be embarrassing? Should she say it was a joke after being drunk? So, this made my elders very embarrassed. In addition." He paused, "I was also scared."

"Scared?" Shen Cha exchanged glances with Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian. "Why are you scared?"

"If you say that, I can understand. If it were me, I might not run away, but get mad on the spot." Jin Miaomiao looked at the idiots who focused their eyes on her and sighed helplessly. Just when she was about to say something, she saw the same expression on the faces of the three people sitting opposite her. She couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands and said, "It's understandable that Xiao Qi doesn't understand, but why are you joining in the fun, Uncle? And, Master Xiao, you know that your elders are scared, but didn't you ask why?"

"I asked her, and she said it was unexpected and not in her plan at all. Although there was a surprise, there was more shock." Xiao Fengqi touched his chin, "She didn't say anything more. I asked her if she was scared because of each other's identities, and she said no, she was just a simple person and was scared by the other party's behavior. I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure out why. Is there anything wrong with meeting someone you like and wanting to be with them for the rest of your life?"

"Master Xiao, do you think this is okay?" Jin Miaomiao saw Xiao Fengqi shaking his head, and saw that the others had the same reaction. She sighed heavily and said, "You really are..." She stood up and walked around the few people twice, saying as she walked, "I won't talk about the two elders first, I just want to ask you a question." She looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "You two don't need to answer, the rest of you answer me."

The others looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha and couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh. Even the Third Master stroked his beard and looked at the two of them with a smile, thinking that they were the most suitable couple he had ever seen.

"If you have any questions, just ask them now. Why are you talking so much?" Shen Cha rolled his eyes and took a sip of tea. "Tell me, what do you want to ask?"

"While traveling, if you meet someone you like, and you both like each other and get along well, and you travel together for a few months, and the other person asks you to marry you, but you don't even know who the other person is, what their family situation is like, or what they do for a living, would you be surprised or would you feel abrupt?"

"Surprise, I guess!"

"No, this example is wrong. Let's change it." Jin Miaomiao looked at the Third Grandpa. "If a strange young man suddenly came to your door and told you that he fell in love with your daughter or granddaughter at first sight during their outing and hoped to marry her, what would be your subconscious reaction?"

"Where did this liar come from? Get him out!" "Is this your answer?" Seeing the Third Master nod, Jin Miaomiao turned her gaze to Xiao Fengqi, Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing, "If a strange young man suddenly came to you and wanted to marry your sister, what would be your first reaction?"

"What's your first reaction?" Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing looked at each other. "Put him in a sack, beat him up and throw him out. If there's a next time, beat him up every time."

"Yes, I'll beat him up every time I see him!" Xiao Fengqi slammed the table, "Who gave him the guts?"

"Isn't that the end?" Jin Miaomiao clapped her hands and sat back next to Shen Cha. "As the ones who are not proposed to, you all react like this. Then, as the one who is proposed to, will you be scared?"

"Now that I think about it." Several people looked at each other, "It does make sense."

"When I heard this story before, I felt that something was wrong." Jin Miaomiao patted Shen Cha, "Really? I told you, right?" Seeing Shen Cha nod, she continued, "Now I finally understand what's wrong. If someone told me that he wanted to get married after knowing me for only a few months, I would think he was mentally ill. Although it is too disrespectful to talk about elders like this, as a girl, I can now understand why Mr. Xiao's elders left without saying goodbye overnight. They were really scared away."

"That's true." Xue Ruitian nodded. "Thinking about it this way, it was indeed a bit abrupt. It was inevitable that people would be scared away."

"I have another question." Shen Cha tapped the table lightly and said, "If she really felt offended, why did she agree? She ran away after agreeing. Wouldn't it be better to tell her in person that it was inappropriate to do so?"

"Maybe it's because we can't save face. After all, we fought side by side for many days and spent a lot of happy times together."

"That makes sense." Shen Cha nodded, "This matter is indeed a bit abrupt, and it is understandable that you want to run away."

She and Shen Haolin looked at each other and sighed at the same time. They didn't know if Second Grandpa had figured out after so many years that his actions back then were inappropriate and impolite to girls.

"I have another question." Shen Cha looked at Xiao Fengqi. "After Mr. Xiao's elder left late at night, did she ever think that her action would cause great harm to the other party? In her opinion, my elder's proposal was very abrupt and rash, but she left without saying a word, and the harm she caused to my elder is irreparable in her lifetime. I wonder if she is aware of this?"
