Chapter 142: Dragon Boat Race (1)

Murong Xue blinked, ”But I'm only fourteen years old. Isn't it too early to find a man?” In modern society, she was only a middle school student.

”Of course not. Women in Qingyan usually get engaged at the age of 12 or 13 and get married when they reach 15. You are 14 now. Even you don't get married, at least you can get engaged first!” said Ouyang Shaochen.

Getting engaged? But she had just cancelled the engagement with Ye Yichen and hadn't had a few days' free life. And now getting engaged again? Then she had to stay in her own boudoir and embroider her own bottom drawer until the day she got married? Such a boring life was the last thing she wanted!

Murong Xue pursed her lips and said slowly, ”I don't wanna get engaged. I plan to wander around the capital. If I am lucky enough to meet a keeper, then I'm gonna marry him directly. But if I am not lucky enough, I'm gonna stay single as always…”

”So you mean you haven't met your keeper yet?” muttered Ouyang Shaochen, then he raised his head and looked at Murong Xue with that pair of sunken eyes as dark as a pool, like they were going to suck in everything.

Murong Xue's eyelid twitched abruptly, she then nodded subconsciously.

Ouyang Shaochen's pretty face immediately darkened, ”Then be a single lady for your whole life!” He said those word by word while gritting his teeth. He flipped with his tiptoe and jumped into the sky, then flew out of the mansion without turning back.

Watching him fly away, Murong Xue got evidently confused, ”Did I say something wrong?”

”You said nothing wrong, but a little stupid. Didn't you get what he was saying?” A sigh came from the dark. Murong Xue turned around and saw a young man standing under the tree. He was wearing an ebony black cotton robe with the neckline embroidered with exquisite flowers slightly open. And that evil but pretty face could even take one's breath away. That was Mu Liufeng from Duke's Mansion.

He was looking at her with a fake smile. Some kind of teasing could be told from his glittering eyes, which made Murong Xue steamed up, ”Mu Liufeng, you are stupid!”

”At least I understand what Ouyang Shaochen means, but you don't.” Mu Loufeng heaved a long sigh, then curled up his lips to put on a bitchy smile.

Murong Xue's pretty face immediately darkened. Ouyang Shaochen wanted her to get married. Of course she got him.

Mu Liufeng was Ouyang Shaochen's best friend, of course he would speak for him. So she ain't in no mood to argue with him, ”Mu Liufeng, what are you doing here?”

”To invite to watch the dragon boat race!”said Mu Liufeng smiling. Then he opened his folding fan and fanned himself lightly once in a while.

Murong Xue was confused, ”Dragon boat race?”

”Yeah. It's the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow. All folks of the capital, civil and military officials, even His Majesty and the Empress will go watch it by the lake. Quite a scene…” Mu Liufeng was in the mood, so he tried to explain to her, ”My family has a pleasure boat on the lake. If you are interested, we can take it to have some fun around the lake…”

Murong Xue nodded. The original owner of this body had already been weak. So in her last few years, she had been staying in the Falling Snow Pavilion and never had a chance to watch the dragon boat festival, neither had she actually.
