Chapter 111 - Chapter 111: Chapter 106: Jade_i (2/2)

“Come to the backyard with me for a chat!”

Qin Niu stood up and led Tang Caixian toward the backyard.

As she drew near, a faint fragrance also wafted to Qin Niu’s nose.

It smelled good and quite unique.

It was a bit like the fragrance of jasmine, with a touch of the fresh scent of roses.

The two arrived at the backyard, and she glanced at some of the herbs planted there, showing a slight surprise.

“These herbs look like they’ve been recently planted. Are you planning to create a Hundred Herbs Garden?”

She seemed poised and graceful.

Hehe, not really. I planted them in order to sell them for Silver Money.” Standing in front of this small patch of cultivated herbs with her, looking at these plants, Qin Niu felt somewhat less awkward.

“Do you like me?”

She boldly met Qin Niu’s eyes.

“Well… you’re so beautiful, and well-mannered, and your behavior exudes great upbringing, to say I don’t like you would be a lie. But marriage is a lifelong commitment, and I really don’t have any plans to marry right now.”

Qin Niu answered honestly.

“Mutual affection starts with liking each other, and it’s okay if you don’t want to marry now- we can get to know each other slowly. Besides, I’m still young, and my family has always cherished me and respected my wishes, so they probably won’t oppose it.”

Upon hearing this, a subtly joyous expression appeared on her face.

“By the way, this is for you. It’s called the Peaceful Jade, and wearing it will keep you safe. Regardless of whether we end up married or not, I hope you can live a peaceful life. Life is actually incredibly short, and my belief is that we should hurry to do the things we like.”

The jade pendant that Tang Caixian passed over resembled a crescent moon.

This shape of jade pendant was quite common.

Seeing that Qin Niu was dumbfounded and didn’t respond, she giggled, grabbed Qin Niu’s hand, and placed the jade pendant in it.

“I didn’t come here brazenly to propose marriage because I devalue myself or lack modesty, but because you are the only man I’ve met who has truly moved my heart. I’m afraid if I’m not brave this time, I’ll never have the chance again. Farewell!”

After delivering the jade, she drifted towards the outside.

Only then did Qin Niu snap back to reality.

“Miss Tang, please give me some time to seriously consider it.”

“Mhm!”

She nodded her head with a smile.

Qin Niu looked at the jade pendant in his hand, feeling a slight coolness emanating from it and seeping into his skin as he held it. His spiritual power seemed to be slowly growing.

This jade pendant was anything but ordinary.

It certainly wasn’t simply a piece of jasper.

To receive such a precious gift at their first meeting, Qin Niu would be lying if he said he didn’t feel anything.

This marriage proposal came as if a surprise gift bestowed by heaven.

He truly had no inkling of preparation for it, and whether to accept it required calm deliberation.

It was a matter of being responsible both to himself and to the lady.

Watching her light, graceful steps-a girl who had learned to dance has a different way of walking, exceptionally beautiful..
