Duke Jing's younger sister

Chapter 116 Opportunity

"Brother, have you forgotten that my father was also an official?"

Before Jiang Minzhi was exiled, although he was a local civil servant, he also had a court.

Although the color of the scattered lots is slightly different from that of Jingzhao Yin, the essence remains the same.

Shen Li could see the key at a glance.

He curled his lips into a smile, stretched out his hands and held her two small, white hands in his palms, "You knew I had shown mercy, but you still wanted to help her?"

"People can not escape from doing wrong."

Shen Li looked up at him. The young man's sharp outline was even more breathtakingly beautiful under the moonlight.

"Besides, she was bewitched by someone, so I am willing to give her another chance."

When Yang Lijun was a child, she often stayed at the Duke's Mansion, and she and Shen Li grew up together, quarreling with each other since childhood.

She is just a little talkative and doesn't think before she speaks, which often makes people want to beat her up.

But he is heartless and has no bad intentions.

He has been targeting her for such a long time, probably because of the beating that Shen Beiqi gave her as a punishment in order to protect her when she was a child.

It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. She is not a kind-hearted Bodhisattva in the temple, but as long as her bottom line is not touched, she is willing to not care too much.

It is precisely because of this that Shen Li is willing to give her a chance.

She believed that after this lesson, Yang Lijun would be able to distance herself from Han Yunning.

As long as there were no such people fanning the flames around her, she would naturally not do anything to Shen Li.

Hearing this, Shen Beiqi's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and he kept staring at her.

"You're right. We are all human beings, so you will give me a chance, right?"

Suddenly the wind blew.

The poplar trees behind them rustled, fluttering the wide sleeves of the two men.

Shen Li stared at him for a moment, and she already understood the deep meaning of his words. Didn't she already agree to marry him?

What's the point of giving me another chance?

"What?" she asked softly.

Many times, the night between him and her seemed like a taboo topic that could not be mentioned between them.

But Shen Beiqi understood that the knot in his heart had to be untied.

Instead of ignoring it and letting it linger in their hearts.

That would only prevent him and her from ever getting any closer.

Now that it was brought up today, he wanted to resolve the knot in her heart, and also resolve the guilt in his heart.

Let things between them become purer from now on.

There is no guilt, no painful past, only mutual joy.

"I'm sorry." He whispered, "Can you forgive me for that night?"

Whether it was that night or all the harm and slander she suffered because of him.

"...Why are you bringing that up again?"

She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand away, but the other party refused to let go.

Shen Beiqi's throat rolled slightly, and he thought of the night of May 5th.

There were lightning and thunder, and the weather was windy and rainy.

Luo Cheng held her tightly, saying that she had promised that from now on, he would be the only one in her eyes and heart, and she would live with him in love and happiness until old age.

He was so jealous that he almost went crazy, and even today he still feels a tightness in his chest when he thinks about it.

He leaned forward slightly and whispered in her ear,

"Give me a chance, let go of the grudges in your heart, try to fall in love with me, try to make me the only one in your eyes and heart, try to treat me as an equal, and live with me in love for the rest of our lives, okay?"

Shen Li's ears felt slightly hot. How could she tell him that there was someone in her heart many years ago?

From beginning to end, it has never changed.

If he knew, she had developed inappropriate feelings for him before she even reached the age of 15.

Would he think that she was a frivolous person?

Do you think she is weird?

She decided not to tell him the truth! Otherwise, wouldn't she be very embarrassed?

Anyway, he has said that he wants to marry her, so she will pretend to be reluctant at first, and then pretend that she slowly falls in love with him when things come naturally. This way it won't be too embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Shen Li frowned slightly and pretended to be extremely embarrassed, "Is that so? Then I'll try it first."

Shen Beiqi narrowed his eyes slightly and pinched her nose with one hand, "Why, is it so difficult for you to try to like me?"

"No,"

Shen Li cleared his throat and thought for a moment, "That's what you said, I will stop treating you as my brother and treat you as a man, and then...try again..."

She raised her eyebrows slightly, "You know, we have to take it one step at a time."

Shen Beiqi laughed and tilted his head to look at her, "Then tell me, what stage have you reached now?"

"To... not consider you as a brother?"

Shen Beiqi locked his eyes on her, as if he was not satisfied with the answer. She turned her eyes slightly, "Then, should I treat you as a man?"

In front of the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, the waiting crowd had already dispersed.

In the darkness of the night, only Yueyang was left sitting on the eaves of the car waiting.

Xing'anfang is not far from here, and the faint sound of actors' music can be heard blowing in the night breeze.

Yue Yang didn't mean to eavesdrop on his master's conversation, it was just that the night was too quiet and the slightest movement seemed particularly clear.

When he heard what the third girl said, he couldn't hold it back for a moment and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

What does it mean to treat your master as a man?

When did the master stop being a man?

A chilling gaze fell on him, and Yue Yang shuddered unexpectedly.

He coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, then raised his hands to cover his ears.

Can't he just not listen?

Shen Li felt a little embarrassed and tried to break free from his hand again, but he pulled her directly into the carriage.

The carriage was driving on the smooth and wide street, and the wheels made a rumbling sound.

After Shen Beiqi got into the car, he did not let her go, but directly held her in his arms. His eyes were like spring water rippling, with brilliant light flowing and ripples spreading out.

"I feel that the progress is still a little slow. I really want you to know right now whether I am a man or not!"

Shen Li blushed, "Do you want to..."

"do not want!"

Shen Beiqi interrupted her directly, and put a little force on his hands around her waist, "How can you hold Ah Li in your arms if you have the dignity to do so?"

He lowered his head and pecked her red lips, "How can you kiss so passionately and affectionately?"

How can someone talk about shamelessness so righteously and confidently?

Every time he teased her deliberately, she could not resist and was defeated directly. It was really a complete defeat, with no power to fight back at all.

Shen Li pretended to push him, "I'm not used to you being like this..."

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, without any remorse on his face, but his smile became even brighter.

"Then Ahri, you have to get used to it sooner!"

She wanted to say something else, but someone blocked her lips.

Red lanterns stretch out in a line along the long street of Jiangdu City.

The carriage traveled through a swaying red light. Inside the carriage, the woman's cheeks were as red as clouds. With a burst of rapid breathing, he finally left her lips.

"I really want to marry you home soon and bully you." He said in a hoarse voice.

Shen Li: "..."

I really want to escape from here as soon as possible, it’s so hot that I can hardly breathe!
