Chapter 425 Doesn’t he know what face is?
Shen Qionghua was slightly stunned, and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Propose marriage, what marriage?"
For an imperial decree to grant a marriage like this, isn't it the emperor who issues the decree and all she has to do is accept it?
As for those procedures, they should have started after receiving the imperial edict.
Moreover, a royal marriage should not require the steps of accepting the bride price and asking for the bride's name. What is Xie Nanyuan doing?
Shen Qionghua thought about it and asked this question.
Hearing this, Xie Nanyuan raised his lips slightly, looked at Shen Qionghua with eyes filled with deep affection, and said softly:
"Normally, there's no need to propose marriage in the royal family's home. However, I'm thinking that you and Madam Shen are now dependent on each other and have a deep relationship. She treasures you like a treasure. If I marry her precious daughter without asking for her opinion, it would seem a bit disrespectful."
"She will certainly be angry and sad."
"If she's sad, shouldn't you be sad too?"
"What's more, I want you to have what ordinary people have. It doesn't make sense for you to not even have a complete wedding process just because you marry me."
"Once I propose marriage and Madam Shen agrees, I will hand over the imperial edict and ask my father to issue the decree. Only then will it be appropriate."
"Shen Qionghua, don't worry, I will treat you well."
"So, when will you let me come and propose marriage?"
Xie Nanyuan said this and turned the topic back.
"Oh no..." Shen Qionghua exclaimed softly, his eyes looking a little unnatural.
She didn't know when someone would come to propose marriage.
After Xie Nanyuan's reminder, she remembered another thing... She seemed, it seemed, as if she had just recently sworn to her mother that she and Xie Nanyuan had no romantic relationship, only a cooperative relationship...
Less than half a month had passed since these words were spoken... and Xie Nanyuan was about to come and propose marriage.
The slap in the face came so quickly that Shen Qionghua almost lost her mind.
If A Niang thought that Xie Nanyuan and I were not affectionate to each other, even if Xie Nanyuan promised her the position of principal wife, I am afraid A Niang would not agree to this marriage.
Thinking of this, Shen Qionghua felt a little guilty.
She secretly glanced at Xie Nanyuan and tentatively said, "Why don't we get married later? I've already promised you, so... there's no need to rush, right?"
At least, give her some time to transition so that her mother can prepare herself mentally, and at the same time, she won't be hit too hard in the face.
Who is Xie Nanyuan?
Seeing Shen Qionghua's guilty look, I knew there was something fishy going on.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"
Shen Qionghua laughed, "No way, what could I possibly be hiding from you? Have you forgotten that we are in the same group?"
Shen Qionghua used the incident with Xie Qian'an as an excuse.
Before she could try to cover it up, she heard Xie Nanyuan say, "Is it about the marriage proposal?"
Shen Qionghua smiled a fake smile, "No, no."
"It seems so." Xie Nanyuan said.
Shen Qionghua: “…”
"Is it related to Madam Shen?" Xie Nanyuan asked again.
Shen Qionghua's body stiffened, "How could it be..."
"Well, it seems to be related to Madam Shen." Xie Nanyuan said to himself.
Shen Qionghua: “…”
"Are you afraid that Mrs. Shen will not agree?"
Shen Qionghua: “…”
"It shouldn't be like this..." Xie Nanyuan touched his face.
He doesn't look that bad, does he?
Shen Qionghua watched his movements silently: "..."
Suddenly, Xie Nanyuan stopped touching his face and looked directly at Shen Qionghua. His sharp eyes made Shen Qionghua's guilt visible.
Xie Nanyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, pursed his thin lips, and after a while, he spoke hesitantly, "Could it be that you have said something bad about me to Madam Shen before, so you are sure that she will not agree to this marriage?"
Shen Qionghua: "..." His thumb clasped his index finger tightly.
Only in this way did Shen Qionghua not scream out in surprise on the spot.
It is said that women's intuition is very accurate, but why is Xie Nanyuan, a man who is eight feet tall, also so accurate intuition?
She didn't say anything, but he guessed it almost exactly.
Although she had never said anything bad about her to A Niang, she had said that she and Xie Nanyuan were just partners and she would not marry Xie Nanyuan.
In short, the final result was that if Xie Nanyuan came to propose marriage like this, A Niang would definitely not agree to the marriage.
But she just couldn't explain it to Xie Nanyuan.
If I tell my mother about his bad things, maybe Xie Nanyuan’s anger will subside after a while.
If he knew that she had once told her mother that she would never marry him and that she had no romantic feelings for him, I'm afraid this matter would not be so easily forgotten.
Her intuition told her that the latter was definitely more serious than the former.
After going through so many things, she finally saw Xie Nanyuan's true face.
It is said that people in the military are cheerful and don't care about trivial matters, but in her opinion, Xie Nanyuan's mind is smaller than a needle tip and his possessiveness is even stronger.
It would be disastrous if he knew the truth.
Shen Qionghua shuddered all over and was determined not to leak this matter.
Thinking of this, she smiled sweetly and said, "No, no, how could I say anything bad about the prince?"
"Your Highness has repeatedly assisted the Shen family. Last time, he even saved A Niang and A Yi. They all have a very good impression of you. How can I change that with just a few words?"
"Besides, the prince and I have no grudges against each other, so why would I say bad things about you to my mother?"
Looking at that sweet smile, Xie Nanyuan raised his lips to a wicked smile and said slowly, "Even the prince called out, it seems that he really said a lot of bad things about me."
If you listen carefully, there is a hint of gnashing of teeth.
Shen Qionghua: “…”
Are you a devil?
Shen Qionghua smirked, "Really not. If you don't believe me, you can go ask yourself."
"Okay." Xie Nanyuan quickly agreed and said, "If I send someone to propose marriage and get rejected, I will definitely go to her house in person to ask Madam Shen the reason."
Shen Qionghua's eyes widened when he heard that.
Is this person really going to ask?
Doesn't he know what a face is?
What should I do?
If A Niang really refused, even if she gave other reasons, given A Niang's simple nature, Xie Nanyuan would be able to find out the real reason if he just went to her house and asked her a few specific questions.
After all, it's a treacherous one.
How could A Niang possibly beat him!
