Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 225 His Sister Has Something on Her Mind
Accidentally said what was on her mind, Lan Ningshu panicked, blushed, and quickly changed her words: "No, it's nothing... just an ordinary friend."

Lan Ningshu's nervous look was seen by Lan Muzhi, and he knew it.

——He knows his sister best.The shyness, reservedness and indecision of everyone's lady can't be described in her. She has always been a very sturdy and carefree man, because there is only such a little sister in the family, she is usually spoiled, and today she suddenly becomes sentimental. There is something wrong.

Lan Muzhi became interested, and asked tentatively, "Little sister, do you have...a man you like?"

"Brother, no, don't guess." Lan Muzhi guessed what was on his mind, and Lan Ningshu's heart beat faster, and she hurriedly defended herself.

Lan Muzhi turned sideways and stared straight at her: "Then why are you flustered? You were sluggish along the way, and you made a fuss to see the snow, and you got half drunk. Before at the banquet, you always It’s not your style to look around like you’re waiting for someone.”

"Is...really?" Lan Ningshu avoided Lan Muzhi's probing eyes, turned her head to look out the window, and said pretending to be relaxed, "I just feel a little bored."

It's not that easy to get away with it!
The corner of Lan Muzhi's mouth curled up, and he noticed Xin Dalu's expression: "I don't believe it? Are you embarrassed to say it?"

Lan Ningshuxiang retorted indifferently to her brother's persistent questioning, "Are you my brother? Do you think I'm such a shy woman?"

Lan Muzhi was choked and stared at the balls, his sister is really worrying, the matchmaker has broken through the threshold of the house, she just didn't like one.

"My own sister? What kind of young master do you like? Then Gu Wan married Huo Xizhou only after becoming an old girl. You also arrived in time the year before last. If you don't find a husband's family, you will become an old girl. After a few days Nian's mother has been worrying about your marriage! My mother repeatedly asked me which young master is good. Not long ago, my mother told me to introduce you to the young master of the Li family, a big shipping company in the west of the city. How is the arrangement going?"

Lan Muzhi seemed to be talking casually, but in fact, from the corner of his eye, he glanced at Lan Ningshu from time to time to see how his sister would react.

"No, I don't like it." Lan Ningshu blurted out without thinking.

"No one has seen it, how do you know you don't like it?" Lan Muzhi asked.

Lan Muzhi has absolutely nothing to do with this younger sister. As an elder brother, he has introduced photos to her of all the better men around him, gentle and elegant scholar, rough and fine military officer, handsome young master, gentle and gentle politician , funny and humorous overseas returnees... almost sixteen provinces in the south have good family backgrounds, and after introducing all the children of similar ages from aristocratic families, she didn't like any of them, and some simply rejected them after hearing their names.

It's really a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart, unpredictable!
"I'm looking for someone I like." Lan Ningshu said shyly.

"You like it yourself?" Seeing Lan Ningshu's stubborn face, Lan Muzhi couldn't help laughing out: "Okay, tonight's banquet is full of wealthy families, is there anyone you like? Which young master do you like? As long as you like it, brother will let him marry you even if he puts a knife on his neck."

"Brother—what nonsense are you talking about! I'm not a female bandit, so there's no reason to force someone to marry me." Lan Ningshu blushed and said coquettishly.

"Being able to climb into our Lan family and marry my Lan family's much-loved little sister is a blessing he has cultivated for several lifetimes. What is there to be wronged?" Is there anyone you like at the banquet? You tell me, brother doesn’t have to force him, can’t brother help you chase it together?”

"Oh, really not!" Lan Ningshu changed the subject angrily: "That Meng Shuheng has been around me all night tonight, sticking to me and talking to me when he has nothing to do. It disgusts me to death all night. The disgusting and sentimental person still has the nerve to bring up the fourth young lady from time to time, saying that the fourth young lady once fell in love with him and waited for him for several years... He didn't even take a mirror to see himself like that, and even mentioned it to the fourth young lady. The shoes don't match. And his Gu Yuting, these two are really a pair of scumbags and sluts, seeing them really insulted my eyes.

What's even more exasperating is that that scumbag not only clings to me for a chat, but also invites me to dance with shamelessness. If I didn't take care of the Huo family's face and the upbringing that a girl from the Lan family should have, I would have given him a crackling beating. This kind of person walking around at the banquet is more disgusting than flies. I don't know why the Huo family invited him? "

"Oh, sister lost her mind all night because of this incident?"

Lan Muzhi was obviously a little skeptical, remembering that at the banquet just now, Lan Ningshu had been looking around, restless, eagerly looking forward to someone's appearance, and related to her sentence just now "Why is he not here tonight", it should be waiting There is no doubt that someone has appeared.

Now you don't admit it?

Deliberately changing the topic with Meng Shuheng and Gu Yuting?

"This banquet was specially held for the reception of Mr. James. Meng Shuheng was not invited, but he wanted to come because of his own wishful thinking. After all, he is also a member of the study abroad group. Even if the young commander came, it would be hard to say anything. If you think It's a pity, next time I will organize a special banquet, just don't invite Meng Shuheng..."

Speaking of this, Lan Muzhi's eyes lit up, and he continued: "According to the date, it happens to be your birthday two days before the end of the new year. I will be the host and organize to invite some of the best military officers to come to your house. You can choose." .”

"No need." Lan Ningshu lowered her head sadly.

In fact, she really likes someone. For a long, long time, she always creates chance encounters again and again, passing by him several times, deliberately chatting with him, but he never takes a serious look at her. She thought she had no impression of her, so she could only quietly bury this unrequited love in her heart.

It's bitter, but I can't help but look forward to it...

"Do you really have someone you like?"

Even a fool could see Lan Ningshu's expression now. Lan Muzhi frowned, thinking that it was true that the girls were not allowed to stay in college, but since the little girl has someone she likes, why didn't she tell her and let her parents decide to propose a marriage?Based on the family background of the Lan family and the younger sister's own conditions, no one should refuse, except of course the younger sister has a bad temper.Could it be that the other party's family status is too poor?Not good enough for the Lan family?The younger sister is worried that her parents will not agree?or...

Lan Ningshu lowered her head firmly and did not answer.

Lan Muzhi took her as the default.

"Who is he?" Lan Muzhi asked eagerly.

"Yes... the second young master of the Huo family." Seeing that she really couldn't hide it from her elder brother, Lan Ningshu said it in a low voice.

Lan Muzhi was a little surprised: "Who?"

"Huo Tianlang."
