Imperial College Kindergarten

Wang Jingshu raised her eyes and looked at Xie Yu: "The marriage between the Wang and Xie families was agreed upon a generation ago. Mr. Xie doesn't want me. Could it be that he wants to wait for my little sister Lingxi to grow up?"

"Still... Jingshu thinks that among the women in the capital, Jingshu is not the first, but also the top three. No one is more suitable for the position of the Xie family's wife than me."

Xie Yu saluted with an apologetic tone: "It's not because of these reasons. Miss Wang is naturally fine. It's just that I don't agree to the marriage. I'm sorry."

"Why?" Wang Jingshu didn't understand why Xie Yu refused. After thinking for a moment, she thought of the person who just entered, and her astringent thoughts came to her mind again, "Is it because of her?"

"It's not because of anyone else. I have never agreed to marriage before. It's just that my parents insisted on it. I tried to persuade them many times to no avail." Xie Yu lowered his eyes, not wanting Wang Jingshu to see his dark gaze at this moment.

He grew up according to the expectations of his parents, and indeed became the standard for a noble son of aristocratic families, but every move that everyone praised became a shackles for him, trapping him in place, like a puppet on strings , cannot live according to one's own ideas.

The most outrageous thing he ever did was to take the imperial examination without his family's permission and become an assistant teacher instead of following the path planned for him by his father.

Xie Yu sighed lightly. If Xie Miao hadn't made a fuss about leaving the Xie family at that time, his father would not have lightly dismissed his behavior without pursuing it.

However, they soon thought of another way to control people - marriage.

The rise of the new dynasty intentionally downplayed the power of the aristocratic families, but the aristocratic families still could not see the situation clearly, thinking that it was the previous dynasty that was under their control, and tried to unite to fight against the imperial power.

Wang Jingshu couldn't help but be disappointed. In her opinion, Xie Yu had a beloved woman and therefore did not want to get married.

"But how can she be the wife of the Xie family? If you really like her, you won't be able to take her in as a concubine..."

"Miss Wang," Xie Yu interrupted Wang Jingshu with a cold face, "Don't insult me, don't insult you, and don't insult her."

Wang Jingshu couldn't help but take a few steps back, tears flashing in her eyes.

"Xie Yu, you will regret it."

After all, she turned to leave.

Xie Yu stayed where he was, looking at the side door with unknown meaning, and then returned to the inn.

Liu Xueting, who was hiding at the side door: "..."

"Tong, I always feel like I've been discovered!"

303 was surprised: "Is this the point? Isn't the point not that Xie Yu admitted that he likes——"

"Yeah, then why didn't you explode? Just for Xie Yu's status, it's worth your system to explode, right?" Liu Xue stopped and thought about it in his mind, but he couldn't find out who Xie Yu was. Who is the woman she might like? Could it be that she knows too few people?

"Well...it may have been affected by the evil magnetic field and hasn't recovered yet." 303 made a random excuse. It didn't know why it didn't receive the instruction to explode. "It's also possible that the time has not come yet."

"Okay, let's go back first." Liu Xueting yawned, feeling a little tired after walking around for so long.

The next day, Liu Xueting and his party boarded Mu Jiujiu's boat and headed back to Beijing.

What was also a little embarrassing was that Wang Jingshu was also on board.

In Mu Jiujiu's words, if you can make a little money, who would think it's too much money?

Liu Xueting nodded in agreement, there's nothing wrong with it!The eldest brother was safe, and her biggest worry before leaving Beijing was resolved on the return trip. Liu Xueting relaxed and enjoyed the scenery along the way. Seeing that she was about to arrive in the capital, she suddenly remembered something and said with worry in her eyes: "Brother! If you go back with us, what will happen to your secret mission?"

Isn't it exposed?Will it affect eldest brother's future?

"Don't worry, I have already given the secret instructions to Your Majesty. There is no need to worry about me, but you." Liu Qingming stroked Liu Xueting's hair, "Having been away from the Imperial College for so long, have you prepared your arithmetic lessons?"

!!!

Oh my god, after her elder brother reminded her, she finally understood what she had been thinking she had missed these days!
She actually forgot to take arithmetic class when she went back!

Thinking of this, Liu Xueting quickly got up and went back to his room to prepare lessons.

Xie Yu sat down opposite Liu Qingming. During these days on the boat, Liu Qingming had been separating him from Liu Xueting intentionally or unintentionally. He must have guessed something.

He couldn't help but laugh lightly: "What is Qingming worried about?"

Liu Qingming looked at Xie Yu in surprise, pretending not to know: "Brother Yu, what does this mean?"

Xie Yu raised his eyes and made a serious promise: "I will love her more than you do."

Liu Qingming made up his mind to pretend to be stupid until the end: "Huh? Who is Brother Yu talking about? Do I know him?"

Xie Yu was choked by Liu Qingming's words. Seeing Liu Qingming's confused face, he couldn't help but laugh, pretending to be for him, right?
"Of course I don't know her. After all, her parents are gone and her relatives don't recognize her. It's so pitiful."

Liu Qingming gritted his back molars and asked Xie Yu which pot was he not to open and lift?
Every time he remembered that he was not there when Tingxue was kicked out of the Hou Mansion, he hated it in his heart!

"But pity is not love." Liu Qingming looked back at Xie Yu. He had to admit that from the perspective of the whole capital, Xie Yu was indeed good, but this did not mean that he could agree with Xie Yu's actions!

Especially the Xie family is not a good place to go.

He is a close confidant of His Majesty, how come he doesn't know about His Majesty's suppression of the aristocratic family?

He is Xie Yu's best friend, but he is also Ting Xue's brother!

"I have never said that love comes from pity. In the most difficult time, she never prayed to anyone. Instead, she found a way on her own and relied on her talent and knowledge to gain a foothold in the Imperial College. Who is there in the Imperial College now? Dare you underestimate her? If you have listened to her arithmetic class, you will know that it is difficult not to love her like that."

"Xie is also a human being and can't control his emotions, but I also know that now is definitely not a good time. Don't worry, the Xie family is not a problem."

Seeing Xie Yu's calm and calm expression, Liu Qingming suddenly remembered that no wonder Xie Yu had roped him into a business partnership a few years ago. It seemed that he had already made up his mind not to compromise with the Xie family.

"It's up to you. Anyway, my sister is so good, so it's normal for more people to like her. With my eldest brother as my backing, she can marry her if she likes it. If she doesn't like it, I'll support her for the rest of my life." Liu Qingming thought for a moment and decided to let it go. Of course, that's fine. Seeing Zing Xue act like that didn't enlighten her anyway. What if he got involved and made her pay attention to Xie Yu?
Xie Yu smiled softly. As long as the eldest brother didn't object, he wouldn't be in a hurry and would have plenty of time to wait.

The boat arrived at the dock on the outskirts of the capital. As soon as the group got off the boat, they met the menacing Wang family.

Wang Yue led a group of servants to block Xie Yu's path. He pointed his hand directly at Xie Yu: "Xie Yu! Is this how you treat my sister? You are the number one son of a noble family, bah!"

This... luckily it was on the exclusive dock of Mingyue Villa, otherwise if he had shouted at Wang Yue, within half a day, the rumors in the capital would have turned upside down!
Thank you my dear friends~
