chapter-241
When Zhao Ling Xian heard the word "propose," her brain suddenly exploded and buzzed.
She had just made her decision in the kitchen earlier to accept Liang Yu's proposal.
However, once Liang Yu actually said the words, Zhao Ling Xian realized she hadn't thought it through. Her heart was even more frantic, especially now that Qin Feng sat beside her.
"Liang Yu, I've said the previous few times that I don't have much of an opinion. It all depends on Ling Xian's personal choice," Zhao Da Hai said with the shake of his head.
Liang Yu's gaze fell directly on Zhao Ling Xian and he gave a light, gentlemanly smile. He said gently, "Princess Ling Xian, how have your deliberations been going? Don't worry. If you really agree to marry into the Liang family, I can assure you that I'll treat you with single-minded sincerity. Of course, if you haven't finished thinking about it yet, I'll continue to wait; I'll wait until you agree."Everyone waited for Zhao Ling Xian's response. The room fell quiet, and the only sound that could be heard was Zhao Ling Xian's heavy breathing.
Beads of sweat formed on her forehead, and the fragrance of her body became even stronger. A row of clean white teeth bit her lip firmly. It was clear from her expression that this was a very difficult decision for Zhao Ling Xian!
"Haha, seems that Little Sister Ling Xian is shy in front of her father and older brother!" Zhao Ling Xian's minute actions didn't go unnoticed by Qin Feng. He couldn't help it and suddenly spoke to help her escape her predicament.
At the same time, Qin Feng took Zhao Ling Xian's jade hand beneath the table. He held it tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Young Master Liang, young girls are sensitive. You've frightened Little Sister Ling Xian by suddenly asking such a serious question. From what I see, Little Sister Ling Xian has an answer but is too embarrassed to say it in front of everyone. How about this, Little Sister Ling Xian: nod or shake your head in response? You don't have to say it out loud."
Qin Feng was afraid that Zhao Ling Xian would agree verbally to Liang Yu's proposal and he would be unable to control himself and burst out. Thus, he intervened to make everyone else back down.
Liang Yu thought Qin Feng was helping him. At this time, he gave Qin Feng a discreet grateful look. He smiled and said, "Young Master Qin is right. It seems that I've been careless. Then let's do as Young Master Qin said. Princess Ling Xian, if you agree, nod; if you don't, shake your head."Zhao Ling Xian's extremely frantic heart was calmed when Qin Feng took her hand. She looked at him in a daze and suddenly felt that Qin Feng was very unfamiliar and he even frightened her a bit.
She didn't think that the Qin Feng who originally wanted to fight Liang Yu would suddenly change. Not only did he not get angry or stop Liang Yu when Liang Yu proposed, he even kept helping Liang Yu speak.
Only someone who has experienced the pain of a deeply beloved man heartlessly pushing them toward another man could understand how much it hurt.
The hesitation in Zhao Ling Xian instantly and completely disappeared. She harshly shoved Qin Feng's hand away and suddenly stood. She looked at Liang Yu and said loudly, "Young Master Liang, I, Zhao Ling Xian, accept your proposal. I agree to marry you!"
Rumble!
Qin Feng looked like he was in the midst of being struck violently by lightning and his brain was immediately fried to a crisp.
His little heart was brutally stabbed by Zhao Ling Xian's words.
A month ago, Qin Feng announced the annulment of his engagement with Zhao Ling Xian at Acropolis University in public. A month later today, Zhao Ling Xian also announced in front of an audience her acceptance of Liang Yu's proposal.
If you mess around, sooner or later, you'll have to pay for it. Qin Feng felt that he got what he deserved!
"Ling Xian… Y-You really agreed? I didn't hear incorrectly, did I?"
Liang Yu shouted with happiness. He even nervously waited for Zhao Ling Xian to nod or shake her head. He hadn't thought Zhao Ling Xian would suddenly act out of character, stand up, and resolutely agree to the marriage.
"Okay, okay, Little Sister Ling Xian already said she'd agree. You want her to embarrass herself to death by making her repeat it?" Qin Feng stepped in before Zhao Ling Xian could respond.
Hearing her say such words once was enough. If he heard them again, he was afraid his little heart wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Haha, okay, okay. I was too happy and didn't think Princess Ling Xian would actually agree. I'm really too happy." Liang Yu was so excited that he was a bit incoherent.
The ability to marry an absolute beauty like Zhao Ling Xian was indeed something to be happy about.
And Liang Yu wanted to marry her for another motive. Now that Zhao Ling Xian agreed to the marriage, his large plans could be put into motion as quickly as possible. Just thinking about it excited Liang Yu.
"Since this engagement is set, then let's eat. The food is getting cold." At this time, Zhao Da Hai spoke and told everyone to sit down and eat.
Usually, when a daughter gets married, the parents are the happiest and most excited. However, based on Zhao Da Hai's expression, he wasn't that happy about this engagement.
During the meal, no one really spoke. In particular, Zhao Da Hai and Qin Feng concerned themselves with lowering their heads and eating. The atmosphere was clearly a bit stiff and cold.
On the other hand, after Zhao Ling Xian agreed to the marriage, her attitude toward Liang Yu changed completely. She kept getting food for him and taking care of him. This made Qin Feng roll his eyes so much that he was about to develop cataracts.
After the meal, Zhao Da Hai called Liang Yu into the study.
Since the engagement was set, they had to choose an auspicious day for the wedding. At the same time, Zhao Da Hai had to talk to Liang Yu about their future business partnership.
After Zhao Da Hai and Liang Yu left, Qin Feng and Zhao Ling Xian were the only two left in the dining room. This meal pulled the two apart and formed a chasm between them—an enormous and insurmountable distance. The atmosphere turned frigid.
"Ling Xian, come upstairs with me. I have something to say to you!" Qin Feng tugged Zhao Ling Xian's arm and wanted to explain the situation between him and Liang Yu to her.
