Chapter 711: Old Times (End)
Naturally, Lu Xixue couldn't agree to that.

It was inexplicable. She didn't even know who the man in front of her was, but he came up and said he wanted to marry her? He must be crazy.

Su Zhenyun next to him couldn't help but frown.

Isn’t this the prince of Yongning Marquis’ Mansion?

After the visitor introduced himself, Lu Xixue said "oh" and then ran away pulling Su Zhenyun.

"What are you standing there for? You must be a psychopath. Run!"

Su Zhenyun originally wanted to argue with the prince of Yongning Marquisate, but the moment the woman grabbed his arm, his cheeks turned red and he had no time to react. He just ran forward with shining eyes, following her footsteps.

"He's crazy. I proposed to him just because I knew him." Finally running to a quiet place, Lu Xixue couldn't help but complain.

The young man just looked at her with a pair of bright eyes, which seemed to have a little starlight in them: "What kind of man does Miss Lu like?"

Lu Xixue replied subconsciously: "What kind? Respect me, understand me, and only have me as a man by your side..."

Halfway through her speech, she sneered.

Such a man is hard to find even in modern times. Do you still expect this ancient person to understand?

Su Zhenyun listened to her words carefully and kept them in mind.

"It is enough to love one person in your life."

Lu Xixue was stunned for a moment, turned around, and saw the young man's pair of starry eyes. When he said this, it seemed as if even the heaven and earth could not change his determination, and his heart could not help but move slightly.

But soon, she pushed him away.

"Come on, which man doesn't like to have three wives and four concubines?"

How could they possibly understand what true love is like?

After saying that, she ran away.

The main thing is that this young man is very handsome and exceptionally good-looking.

Although she doesn't like the thoughts of these men, everyone has aesthetic taste, so she still appreciates their appearance.

What if she gets fooled by this pretty boy? Don't think she doesn't know he's always peeking at her.

After Lu Xixue ran away, she didn't know that Su Zhenyun was slowly following her. He didn't go home until he saw her return home safely.

Neither of them took the appearance of the Prince of Yongning's Mansion seriously, but they did not expect that the news of the Prince of Yongning's Mansion proposing to Lu Xixue would spread throughout the streets and alleys.

At the same time, many wealthy families came to the Lu family to propose marriage.

Although Lu Xixue has a bad reputation, Master Lu is also a well-known good official. Over the years, Lu Xixue has relied on his own abilities to bring money home continuously. Others can't help but feel jealous just by mentioning the Lu family's money.

In addition, although she is fierce, she is really beautiful, talented, and capable. Even though some people complain about her, there are still many noble men chasing after her. So when they find out that the Lu family wants to marry off their daughter, they all flock to her.

Early in the morning, when Lu Xixue was about to go out, she saw dozens of boxes of betrothal gifts placed in front of the door, several matchmakers standing noisily at the door, and dozens of horse-drawn carriages waiting to go behind them.

When Lu Xixue returned home last night, she drank a little bit of wine and suddenly thought that she was not sober yet, so she couldn't help rubbing her eyes.

Mrs. Lu came running over at this time, looking a little sad.

"Xue'er, although I want you to get married, I didn't expect so many people to come, and the Yongning Marquis Mansion said that you have already agreed..."

She knew her daughter was a very opinionated person, and she thought that her daughter had negotiated the marriage privately, but she found out that the reputation of the Yongning Marquisate was not very good...

As his thoughts came back to him, Lu Xixue suddenly raised his eyes, his expression becoming clear.

It turns out that those betrothal gifts were sent by the Yongning Marquis' Mansion?
Last night, a strange man suddenly asked her to marry him, and Lu Xixue refused on the spot without even thinking about it.

Did he think she didn't know what he was planning?

Today, the Yongning Marquis' Mansion is so debted that it can't even pay it back, and is looking everywhere for the daughters of wealthy businessmen to marry into the family with a large dowry to fill the hole.

Don't you just want money? Dream on!
What kind of man is he, trying to cheat her out of her money? Money is her husband!

She frowned slightly, told Madam Lu that she was not aware of the matter, then inquired for information and came to the teahouse where the prince of Yongning Marquis's Mansion was.

Private room on the second floor.

Lu Xixue went straight to the point and refused directly: "Prince, I think I have made it very clear. I don't like you and I don't want to marry into your family. Be more self-disciplined."

Don't force me to curse.

After saying that, she turned around and left gracefully.

The prince of Yongning Marquis's Mansion refused to give in and stopped her.

"I heard that you made a bet with someone that if no one dared to marry you within a month, you would have to apologize to Zhang Shuo, a coward. Now if you marry me, you won't have to lose face. Besides, I have a good appearance and family background. Why don't you consider it, Miss Lu?"

Lu Xixue almost laughed out loud: "Did you marry me just for face?"

"I don't even want to talk about your Yongning Marquis Mansion..."

"Poor bastard, you think I'm the God of Wealth. I have only one word for you: Get lost."

There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain. Anyway, she doesn't want to get married.

If it really doesn't work, she will leave the capital and hide for a while. Her business in Jiangnan has long required her to go there in person to take care of it.

The prince of Yongning Marquis's Mansion finally experienced the character of the legendary Miss Lu. He was so angry that his face turned black, but he couldn't stop Lu Xixue and she ran away.

Lu Xixue was lost in thought when, the next second, she bumped into someone.

He held his forehead and raised his eyes, meeting a pair of worried eyes.

"Miss Lu, are you okay? You and the Yongning Marquis' son..."

Su Zhenyun seemed to be hesitant to speak, standing there uncomfortably.

"You followed me?" Lu Xixue frowned, looking a little unhappy.

Su Zhenyun waved his hands quickly, "I didn't, I..."

Before he could say anything, the waiter beside him helped to explain.

"He just happened to pass by and heard that Miss Lu was here, so he waited outside."

Hearing this, Lu Xixue frowned even deeper, "Why are you waiting for me?"

Looking at the pair of clear eyes staring at him, captivating his heart, Su Zhenyun moved his lips but couldn't utter a word.

Looking at his bruised face, Lu Xixue curled her lips and handed him a small medicine bottle.

"Apply this medicine and the swelling will go down in an incense stick of time."

After saying that, he raised his hand.

"Do good things without leaving a name. Goodbye."

Lu Xixue was furious and still worried about the bet when she saw someone suddenly rushing out in front of her. "Miss Lu, I'm sorry!"

Lu Xixue stood there in a daze, and when he looked carefully, he found that the man looked particularly familiar.

"Hey, isn't this Zhang Shuo? I remember the gambling period hasn't even started yet, why are you kowtowed and admitting your mistake? Are you scared?"

"Miss Lu, what are you talking about? The story between you and the prince of the Marquis' Mansion has spread all over the capital. From now on, you will be the prince's wife. Please forgive me, but don't argue with me!"

Although the Yongning Marquis' Mansion is in a downturn now, its family background is much higher than that of the Zhang family. No wonder the Zhang family came to apologize in advance, because they were afraid that she would bear a grudge and take the opportunity to deal with them.

"Who said I'm going to marry the prince of the Marquis's Mansion? Didn't you hear? I've already rejected him."

In a short while, a lot of onlookers had gathered. They stared at Lu Xixue with wide eyes in disbelief.

The prince of Yongning Marquis's Mansion walked out of the teahouse with a gloomy face and happened to hear these words.

Everyone's eyes turned to him.

He looked at Lu Xixue with a gloomy expression, said nothing, and left quickly.

Everyone suddenly realized that what Lu Xixue said was true.

She actually rejected the marriage proposal from the Marquis's Mansion!

Just as Lu Xixue was about to leave, Zhang's mother behind him changed her expression and started shouting arrogantly.

"You rejected the Yongning Marquisate. You are so arrogant. Who will marry you?"

Lu Xixue sneered, opened her lips slightly, and was about to speak when a white shadow rushed in front of her again.

"Me! I'd marry her!"

Every word he spoke was sonorous, his tone was firm, and his eyes were burning.

"Ms. Lu, I know you look down on me, but I have been thinking about you ever since I first saw you. It wasn't in the teahouse, but that day when I was between life and death. It was as if I had seen a fairy. You saved my life, and you have left an indelible impression in my heart ever since."

"I, Su, am asking for your hand in marriage, not because Miss Lu has to apologize and I want to save her face, but because I, Su, sincerely want to marry Miss Lu and live with her forever."

If Lu Xixue heard such words normally, she would be unable to help but spit.

But she knew that the young man in front of her was still a gentleman. No matter what would happen in the future, at least he was sincere when he said these things, so she did not feel disgusted.

"That day, in the restaurant, Zhang Shuo and I just happened to meet. We are not friends. You can do what you want. Miss Lu, you don't have to agree to Su for the sake of the bet. Su just wants Miss Lu to know his feelings."

Something in her heart seemed to be touched. Lu Xixue looked at Su Zhenyun steadily, and suddenly burst out laughing.

Su Zhenyun's face is so funny.

However, Su Zhenyun mistakenly thought that Lu Xixue found him funny, and he felt uneasy and lowered his eyes.

Looking at the conflict in his heart, Lu Xixue chuckled.

"You want to chase me? Fine. I am Lu Xixue's man, and I am the only woman for you in your life. If you dare to have second thoughts, we will die together. Do you dare?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a boiling discussion around her, all of which were scolding her for being a traitor and a heretic.

But Lu Xixue just wanted to scare these people away. She simply could not accept the idea of ​​the ancients having three wives and four concubines, and could not stand their oppression of women by favoring boys over girls. She said these words today just to avoid getting married.

This man named Su is a good person, and she won't delay him.

The clear and beautiful voice was deafening in his ears. Su Zhenyun suddenly raised his eyes, his obsidian eyes shining.

A man in red turned and left, and Su Zhenyun quickly chased after him.

"Ms. Lu, I swear that I will love only one person in my life. I will only marry Miss Lu and love only Miss Lu in this life. If you break this oath, you will not die a good death!"

It was not until this moment that he confirmed that he had fallen in love with her from the moment he first saw her.

The second time, it was love at first sight.

The third side, the fourth side...

Fall for her.

Wow, the surroundings are boiling again.

Lu Xixue paused.

But she just sneered and continued walking forward without hesitation.

She never believed a man's lies.

But every day that followed, the young man was like a fool, trying every possible way to follow her, but being very cautious, for fear that she would feel unhappy.

After a few interactions, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were both moved by this guy and seemed to be very interested in him as their future son-in-law.

Even his two younger brothers were impressed by him, and kept repeating "Brother Su, Brother Su" in her ears every day...

Lu Xixue was a little depressed and simply didn't want to pay attention to him.

Unexpectedly, he found out from somewhere that she loved drinking, and he actually brought a few jars of delicious fruit wine.

Although she can refuse men, she can't refuse good wine!

After drinking the other person's wine for half a year, Lu Xixue no longer felt embarrassed to chase him away.

She was not a heartless person. She had seen the countless things Su Zhenyun had done for her over the past six months.

He could even fully understand every idea of ​​hers that seemed unorthodox to people today.

Not the type who supports her verbally, but the one who can correctly discuss with her the injustice of the world towards women.

For the first time since she traveled through time, she wavered in her idea of ​​not getting married.

Finally one day, when he worked hard to make wine for her himself, she finally let go.

"Su Zhenyun, marry me."

Getting married or not getting married is just a choice.

She might regret getting married, but now, if she missed this very good person in front of her, she would regret it even more.

Su Zhenyun was so shocked that the wine jar he was holding fell to the ground.

The aroma of wine filled the air, and pear blossoms were falling. He raised his head and saw the pear blossoms floating in the corners of the woman's eyes. She narrowed her eyes and smiled like a fox.

"Xixue." The young man's eyes were red, like a puppy who was moved and wronged to the extreme.

Lu Xixue touched his head.

Then let’s be together, my love-brained puppy.
