758 Reaching an Agreement

“I’m very grateful for your kindness, but I really don’t like you that way. I hope you can find someone else.”

Jiang Ming felt that he could not give the woman in front of him hope, so he spoke bluntly.

Liu’er Qianqian was instantly struck by a heavy blow. She was upset, but she tried her best to put on a smile. “No matter what, since I’ve already thrown the ball to you, if you leave like this, I’ll be humiliated. So, no matter what, I hope you can meet my mother with me.”

Liu’er Qianqian was still a little stubborn.

She felt that as long as they got married, he would fall in love with her over time. Then, they would love happily ever after.

Alas, her hopes were dashed.

Jiang Ming immediately rejected her. “No, that’s impossible. You should give up. I won’t meet your mother with you.”

He could tell that Liu’er Qianqian was a devoted person. From his point of view, he had to nip her feelings in the bud.

Liu’er Qianqian felt insulted. She immediately took off the hairpin from her head, held it tightly in her hand, and glared at Jiang Ming.

“In that case, do you think that someone like me is not worthy? I’m a princess. Although I have my mother’s surname, I’m still a princess of the royal family.”

She spoke angrily. It was as if she had suffered a huge grievance.

Seeing Liu’er Qianqian like this, Jiang Ming was a little afraid that she would do something stupid, so he placated her by saying, “I’ll come with you to see your mother.”

His heart was in a mess.

He did not expect Liu’er Qianqian to give him the chance to meet Liu’er Yuanyuan after he had given up on meeting the latter.

He was really helpless.

“No, if you’re unwilling, then I won’t make things difficult for you.”

Liu’er Qianqian shook her head and placed the hairpin against her neck.

“It’s just that the Liu’er family can’t suffer such humiliation. Only when I die will the Liu’er family not shift their anger onto you.”

As she spoke, her eyes were filled with determination. Jiang Ming did not know what to do.

He was only trying to placate her! Why did Liu’er Qianqian want to kill herself? It was not like he asked her to do that!

It was as if he had done something to Liu’er Qianqian, but he was clearly innocent!

Jiang Ming did not know what to say.

His brain quickly stopped him from speaking. He looked at Liu’er Qianqian and said, “I didn’t mean to insult you. You’re a wonderful girl. I can’t wait to cherish you. How could I bear to see you die?”

Jiang Ming was babbling at this point.

He felt that Liu’er Qianqian’s words were really baffling! She was essentially manipulating him at this point! Alas, he could not complain to Liu’er Qianqian.

Liu’er Qianqian thought for a while and then looked at Jiang Ming and said, “But many people at the throwing of the embroidered ball saw that I chose you as my matrilocal husband. If you don’t become my matrilocal husband, then I will be laughed at by the entire kingdom.”

Jiang Ming thought for a moment. “Do you have anyone you like? I can make them look like me, and then you can get married.”

“Um… I don’t know if the one I like is still alive.”

Liu’er Qianqian started spouting nonsense.

Her crush was Jiang Ming, but she was afraid that Jiang Ming would not agree, so she lied.

“I’ll come with you to take a look,” Jiang Ming said even more considerately.

He knew that Liu’er Qianqian was probably too embarrassed to bring him to meet her sweetheart, so he added, “When we meet your sweetheart, I’ll keep it a secret too. I won’t tell anyone.”

Liu’er Qianqian admired Jiang Ming even more. She nodded repeatedly. “No problem.”

Thinking of Liu’er Yuanyuan, Liu’er Qianqian said, “Let’s go to Mother’s place first. Mother said that she wants to see you. If I go back on my word, she will blame me.”

“By the way, my name is Ning Caichen.”

Jiang Ming did not think too much about it and still agreed.

Liu’er Qianqian carefully brought Jiang Ming to the south wing.

Over there, Liu’er Yuanyuan, who was worried about her daughter’s ceremony, was drinking tea.

She had always wanted her daughter to find someone more capable and knowledgeable, but her daughter insisted on throwing embroidered balls to find someone she liked, so she could only agree.

However, she felt that it was very difficult to meet an educated person when throwing embroidered balls, especially in this situation. It was easy to meet some street people.

Her mood turned sour. She did not want her daughter to marry the person who had caught the embroidered ball.

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, the door was pushed open.

Hearing the sound, Liu’er Yuanyuan immediately perked up and looked outside the door.

Liu’er Qianqian brought Jiang Ming in and shouted at Liu’er Yuanyuan, “Mother…!”

Liu’er Yuanyuan nodded and revealed a gentle smile. “Qianqian, come over quickly. It seems that you’ve chosen someone.”

Liu’er Qianqian quickly walked to her mother’s side and sat down. When she sat down, she continued to talk to Liu’er Yuanyuan, “Mother, the person I chose this time will definitely meet your needs. This young master has an extraordinary bearing and claims to have a good temperament.”

Liu’er Qianqian looked Jiang Ming up and down. Jiang Ming stood at the side and took the initiative to introduce himself. “I’m Ning Caichen. Hello, Madam.”

Jiang Ming’s polite attitude attracted Liu’er Yuanyuan’s favor. Liu’er Yuanyuan looked at Jiang Ming with a gentle smile. “Ning Caichen, have you made any great achievements before?”

Jiang Ming thought for a moment and then shook his head. “No. I have not made any great achievements.”

Liu’er Yuanyuan was a little disappointed, but then she continued to ask, “Then, have you held any high positions? Or have you won the favor of the king?”

Jiang Ming still shook his head. Liu’er Yuanyuan suddenly became even more disappointed. She could not help but look at their daughter beside her.

Noticing her mother’s gaze, Liu’er Qianqian quickly put in a good word for Jiang Ming. “These things can be solved. After we get married, these things will come easily.”

Liu’er Yuanyuan thought about her daughter’s words and felt that her daughter’s words made sense, but she also felt that it was not good. Then, she looked at Liu’er Qianqian and said, “We should discuss this matter in detail. You guys go out first. Let me think about the rest.”

Liu’er Qianqian was disappointed, but she did not say anything. She looked at Jiang Ming and said, “Ning Caichen, let’s go.”

Jiang Ming nodded and followed Liu’er Qianqian out of the door.

Liu’er Yuanyuan wanted to say something, but when she saw this, she stopped.
