After hesitating for a long time, Chu Chengping finally looked away from the tea cup and looked up at An Zhixian opposite.
To be fair, An Zhixian has a noble character, a simple family background and is liked by Taifu Lin. He is indeed more suitable for her than himself...
"Brother An...I heard...you are getting engaged to the granddaughter of the second wife of the Taifu family?"
An Zhixian's hand holding the cup paused:
"Why did the joke about me and my master reach you? Has it already spread outside?"
Chu Chengping: "That's not true. I only found out about it when Mr. Tang Ge heard it from Qin Yushi. Mr. Tang Ge turned to chatting with my grandfather."
An Zhixian: "So that's it. Qin Yushi's temperament is straightforward, and he can't hide things. He must have heard the Taifu's joke, so he told it to Mr. Tang Ge as a joke."
There was a look of hope in Chu Chengping's eyes:
"So...this marriage is really just a joke by the master?"
An Zhixian: "The master did say it as a joke, but as a businessman, how can I dare to reach such a high level?"
Chu Chengping: "Brother An, what you said is wrong. Although you are a businessman, you have a noble character and a good education. Everyone you meet praises you... In addition, the master has always favored you. I'm afraid it's not a joke." words."
Seeing Chu Chengping's brows tightened and his hands clasped together low, hesitant and uneasy, this familiar feeling made An Zhixian, who was confused, suddenly enlightened:
"Tingping, have you fallen in love with the second wife of the Lin family?"
Chu Chengping suddenly raised his head, his eyes panicked:
"me……"
An Zhixian waved his hand with a gentle smile:
"Tingping, you are a noble man from Tianhuang. I cherish you very much if you are willing to put aside your status and be worthy of my brother. Since we are brothers, we can talk about everything. The so-called fair lady, a gentleman likes to be jealous. You are not married and she is not married, I We have not yet made a marriage arrangement with the second wife of the Lin family, so there is nothing we cannot say."
Chu Chengping hesitated and said:
"Brother An...I...I..."
Looking up at An Zhixian, his gentle smile was encouraging. Chu Chengping took a deep breath and said solemnly and mockingly:
"Brother An, to tell you the truth, I... do like Lin Wanrong, but it may be difficult for me to get what I want. I thought a lot on the way here. Brother An, you have a noble character and a simple family background. I was born in the royal family, and I am not involved in many things." It’s up to you. Wanrong’s temperament is simple and simple, and Brother An is indeed more suitable for her than me..."
"Tingping, although the second wife of the Lin family is a woman, she is also a human being of flesh and blood. You and I, brothers, deciding her whereabouts in private are not respectful to her, you or me."
Chu Chengping said anxiously: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant...it was for her sake..."
An Zhixian said sternly: "You did consider her, but you never respected her or asked her about her wishes. No matter how good it is, she must be happy for it to be good. She is a person, not an object, and cannot You and I took it for granted and made the decision for her."
He reached out and poured out the herbal tea in Chu Chengping's cup and refilled it with hot tea:
"I know you have good intentions. From ancient times to the present, blind marriage and mute marriage have mixed good and bad qualities. It's fine if she doesn't have a choice. Since she has a choice, why not choose a good person who is in love with each other and will know each other for the rest of her life? ?”
Chu Chengping felt that it made sense, nodded and said:
"I'm too self-righteous, but from what Brother An said, it seems like you haven't fallen in love with Lin Wanrong yet?"
I'm extremely sorry. My brain was funny and I wrote Chu Chengping as Chu Chengyi. I have corrected it.
