Chapter 242 He didn't want to see her cry
When Shen Qionghua heard him say this, she became even angrier and pushed Xie Nanyuan hard.
Xie Nanyuan didn't check for a moment and was pushed off the bed.
Burning tears fell from her eyes, and Shen Qionghua's nose turned red from crying. She choked and said, "You said you wanted to scare me, but who knows if you really meant it? Can you just scare me casually about something like this?"
Xie Nanyuan climbed up again and opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Shen Qionghua continued, "You said you liked me and wanted to marry me, but you always pushed me."
"Take the matter of entering my boudoir for example. You don't think about me at all. If someone else saw you, I would lose my reputation!"
"This king..." Xie Nanyuan wanted to say that there were secret guards in the palace everywhere, so he would not be caught by anyone.
But Shen Qionghua didn't even give him a chance to speak. "My father was murdered. My mother and young Ayi are the only relatives left."
"I am the sole propper of the Shen family. Not only do I have to manage the Shen family's assets, but I also have to help my mother and Yi survive the schemes of Prince An and the Yongning Earl's Mansion."
"I'm completely exhausted."
"You said you liked me, but you kept pressing me and refused to give me a moment to breathe."
"You are aware of Prince An's previous plan. Now that I have been bitten by a snake, how can I easily give my true heart to him?"
"I want to go slower and inspect it more. Is that wrong?"
"If you hadn't pushed me too hard and kept barging into my bedroom, I wouldn't have made such a foolish move. Didn't I know you'd come after me later?"
"Woo~~~"
As if she was talking about something sad, Shen Qionghua sobbed and cried pitifully.
Xie Nanyuan was silent for a rare moment. Looking at Shen Qionghua like this, he felt heartbroken and began to reflect on himself.
Is he really pushing too hard?
But if he really wanted to force her, he should go to his father to ask for marriage instead of listening to her cry.
"Woooooo~~~"
Seeing that Xie Nanyuan didn't react, Shen Qionghua cried even louder.
Xie Nanyuan pursed his thin lips, stretched out his bony fingers, and gently wiped the crystal tears from Shen Qionghua's face with his fingertips.
Shen Qionghua stiffened slightly and tried her best to ignore his actions.
Xie Nanyuan said softly, "Don't cry. As long as you don't cry, I will do whatever you want me to do."
He didn't want to see her cry.
She has always been tenacious and resilient. Even when she was surrounded by wolves in the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, she did not cry, but found herself and proposed cooperation.
Now I've made myself cry.
Shen Qionghua looked unconvinced and said tearfully, "You said before that you wouldn't force me. Now that I've said it, will you do what I say?"
Xie Nanyuan nodded hesitantly, "Of course...as long as it's not too extreme."
Shen Qionghua began to sob again, "Then what difference does it make whether you said it or not?"
Seeing her start to cry again, Xie Nanyuan finally compromised, "Okay, okay, okay, I will do as you say."
He just listened to it.
Shen Qionghua calmed down and spoke impatiently, "Then the first rule is, you can't break into my bedroom at night again!"
Xie Nanyuan nodded and said, "Then come more often during the day."
"Secondly, you are not allowed to ask the Emperor for a marriage without my consent!"
Xie Nanyuan nodded, he would agree sooner or later anyway.
"Third, you can't just keep saying that no matter what I do, I will definitely marry you in the future."
Xie Nanyuan nodded and said he would talk about it in his heart later.
"Fourth, from now on, unless it's something related to Prince An and his faction, you are not allowed to come to me!"
Xie Nanyuan nodded halfway, then shook his head decisively, "No!"
He wants to marry her back home, so how can he do that without meeting her?
He did not forget that Huo Jing was watching him closely.
Shen Qionghua began to cry again, but this time, no matter how much she cried, Xie Nanyuan refused to give in.
Seeing that he would not agree, Shen Qionghua took a step back and said, "Then send someone to tell them that they must not come uninvited like they did at night and enter the Shen Mansion as if it were no one's home."
Xie Nanyuan hesitated, but finally nodded.
In fact, according to etiquette, Shen Qionghua's requests were not excessive. It was just that he liked Shen Qionghua and couldn't help wanting to be close to her.
Seeing that Xie Nanyuan agreed, Shen Qionghua stopped crying.
But before she could feel happy for a moment, she heard Xie Nanyuan say, "Then would the king like to invite you to go boating on the lake tomorrow?"
Shen Qionghua paused and said subconsciously: "No..."
Xie Nanyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a hint of danger in his tone, "Think it over carefully before giving me an answer. I have already made a lot of concessions."
There were still tears on Shen Qionghua's eyelashes, and she trembled slightly when she heard that.
After a while, he said, "I understand."
Xie Nanyuan curled his lips in satisfaction.
Since all the conditions were agreed to, Shen Qionghua immediately drove Xie Nanyuan away.
Only after Xie Nanyuan left did An Yi let Shaoyao in.
Shaoyao pushed the door open and rushed to the bed, "Miss, did Prince Rui bully you? I heard you outside..." She cried loudly.
The rest of the words were drowned between his lips and teeth.
Shen Qionghua stood by the table, holding the teacup and drinking most of it in one breath. There was no trace of the sadness on her expression just now.
Shaoyao was a little surprised, "Miss?"
Shen Qionghua patted her chest and said with a tone of relief: "Peony, you don't know, if it weren't for your lady's quick thinking, I'm afraid it would have been very dangerous."
Finally, I was fooled by her.
However, this time it was a blessing in disguise. She knew that King Rui would only respond to soft words and not hard ones. If he didn't respond to soft words or hard words, then she would have no place to cry to.
Peony: “…”Ah?
Seeing Shaoyao standing there in a daze, Shen Qionghua suddenly remembered something and exclaimed:
"Peony, hurry! Get me some pen and ink. I need to write a letter to Xiyao and have it delivered to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion at dawn tomorrow."
