Chapter 508 - Everyone deserves a sincere love (1)
Miss Shui's rouge store opened, so she naturally moved out of the estate. Recently, Ning Yuxuan would be unable to find Guibai. Guibai's disappearances increased over time.
”Strange, where is he?” Standing at the study's doorway, the marquis was slightly at a loss.
Ji Man came over to him with snacks. Raising her eyebrows, she asked, ”What's wrong?”
”Guibai usually stays by my side, but lately, there are many times when I don't see him. I end up having to assign other people to do tasks that would usually be done by him,” said Ning Yuxuan gloomily, ”He requested time off the day before yesterday. I thought he would be back by today, but it seems he hasn't yet.”
Ji Man thought it over as she pulled him into the study and put down a plate of snacks. ”He's probably busy with something and got delayed. You don't need to worry too much. He's served you for so many years.”
Ning Yuxuan sat down and considered for a while before asking, ”Did he go see Miss Shui?”
The corners of Ji Man's lips twitched. ”Didn't we already noticed this when he brought her back? It's really obvious that Guibai is interested in Miss Shui.”
Although Miss Shui was a widow, she was a virtuous person and also good at managing a household. She had suffered a lot in the past years. It would be pretty good if there was a good man to cherish her.
”It's like that, huh.” Having figured things out, Marquis Moyu's forehead relaxed. ”Then, he should just go over to her home and propose. He's been dawdling around her for so long, and he still hasn't succeeded in winning her over?”
Ji Man nodded too. Guibai seemed like a stupidly cute person. In addition, he frequently looked at himself in the mirror. He had probably already gotten adled from doing that too much. If they could help him out with this matter, they should.
”My lord.”
Just as they were thinking about him, he had already returned on his own. His expression looked slightly grave.
”Guibai, come over here.” Ning Yuxuan looked very amicable. He looked a lot like the aunties in neighbourhood committees. He looked at Guibai very gently and said, ”Is something bothering you?”
Guibai wasn't used to Marquis Moyu acting this way. He froze in surprise for a long time before finally answering, ”This subordinate is fine. It's only... this servant wishes to take a few more days off.”
”To do what?” Ning Yuxuan raised his eyebrows.
Guibai paused for a moment. ”To get married.”
What? The other people in the room were stunned. They had still been thinking about helping him, but he had already progressed to the point of getting married?
”This subordinate proposed to Miss Shui, and she agreed. The wedding ceremony will be simple.” Embarrassed, Guibai said, ”We're already gotten to this old age.”
His words stifled Ji Man for a long time. She blinked and repeated his words, ”You propose to Miss Shui, and she agreed?”
Guibai nodded.
”Why do you have such a grave expression then?” Ji Man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. ”I thought something bad had happened.
Guibai wryly smiled. It really couldn't be considered a super happy event, ah. They were just two people looking for someone to spend their life with. He had smoothly said his proposal, and she had agreed without showing any strong emotion.
