Chapter 2292: Mission 23

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Ningyu had displayed surprising audacity by addressing the Emperor directly, putting Qian Ziang in an uncomfortable position. Why hadn’t he realized that Shen Ningyu would go to such lengths to embarrass him? It was evident that she hadn’t considered his feelings at all.

However…

Despite the awkward situation, Qian Ziang had no intention of speaking.

The Emperor of Southern Mist was already beginning to find the situation rather perplexing. Why had Lady Shen brought up Young Master Qian’s matter? What added to the mystery was the fact that Young Master Qian himself appeared entirely clueless about the situation.

“What is it that you wish to say?” Emperor Southern Mist inquired, his confusion evident.

“Your Majesty, there’s nothing to address,” Qian Ziang replied with remarkable composure.

Nothing?

Shen Ningyu’s eyes widened in disbelief.

How could there be nothing?

She had counted on Qian Ziang to fulfill their agreement and personally request the betrothal from the Emperor today.

Why was he not doing it?

Shen Ningyu tried to signal Qian Ziang, fearing that he might have forgotten something crucial.

Qian Ziang couldn’t hide his disgust for Shen Ningyu’s foolish expression.

To him, she was now just another ordinary person. What right did Qian Ziang have to claim her?

Although the Emperor of Southern Mist sensed that something was amiss, since Young Master Qian claimed there was nothing more to discuss, he couldn’t press further. Thus, he departed.

Shen Ningyu attempted to follow the Emperor, a look of urgency on her face.

He was intercepted by the Elders of the Shen family clan.

Shen Ningyu had already suffered some humiliation earlier. If she were to persist in approaching Young Master Qian after he had made it clear that there was no issue, it would further tarnish the Shen family’s reputation. It was only natural for the Elders to intervene and prevent her from causing more embarrassment.

As they left the hall, they planned to discuss this matter privately.

Tears streamed down Shen Ningyu’s face as she rushed towards Qian Ziang.

Upon seeing that it was Shen Ningyu, Qian Ziang promptly sidestepped her, his expression conveying a hint of disgust. He had never intended to marry Shen Ningyu, and her behavior in front of the Emperor had left him quite displeased. Now that she was trying to cling to him, Qian Ziang naturally wanted to keep his distance.

Additionally, he was concerned about potential misunderstandings. Given his lack of interest in marrying Shen Ningyu, he didn’t want to be the subject of gossip.

Shen Ningyu’s attempt to embrace him failed, and she caught sight of Qian Ziang’s expression.

This prompted her to cry even more bitterly.

“Brother Ziang, how could you do this to me? Why are you avoiding me? We agreed to propose to the Emperor today, but you said nothing! Boohoohoo,” Shen Ningyu sobbed pitifully and forlornly.

The Elders of the Shen family clan refrained from intervening. Firstly, Shen Ningyu was already in tears, and secondly, they also desired an explanation from the Qian Family, so they remained silent.

Qian Ziang wore a displeased frown and responded, “Propose to the Emperor? When did I agree to that? Marriages are arranged by matchmakers. The Qian and Shen Families’ elders have not reached any agreement on this matter. It would be inappropriate for me to request it personally. Moreover, the elders of the Qian Family have never expressed any desire for me to be engaged to you.

How could I ask for it?”

“Ningyu, we have grown up together, and our relationship has always been strong. But please understand, I regard you as my sister. I have no intention of marrying you,” Qian Ziang explained, his words filled with both rationality and genuine sentiment.

Of course, he wanted to ensure there were no misunderstandings.
