Bai Chen was extremely efficient with regards to this matter, in half a day, he had already gathered all the information on Li Lingyu's preferences.
~ It is no wonder that Bai Chen is in a hurry, once the girl here reaches this stage, I will begin to give the money to her, Bai Chen is afraid that Li Lingyu will give it to someone else.
"What are you afraid of? Weren't Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother and the others on good terms with Censor Li? You and Li Lingyu will definitely support them." I comforted Bai Chen.
"But since ancient times, the marriage of a girl was handled by the direct mother of the family. The Sister Yu lost her mother when she was young, and grew up in front of Imperial Physician Li. She was never close to her stepmother, and the stepmother that I sent people to investigate was not a good mother either. She has a daughter of her own, but the title of being a proper direct daughter was taken over by the Sister Yu, she had always resented this. If she were to casually grant the Sister Yu to someone else, that would be bad. " Bai Chen's face was filled with worry.
"It's this kind of vicious stepmother's drama again. Let me guess, could it be that her Shunnii is another white lotus? That's right, the plot in the novel is complete."
"What is a white lotus?" Bai Chen was confused.
"Why do children know so much?"
"Me." Bai Chen was so angry at what I said that he did not dare say anything, and started to panic.
It is a beautiful, sunny day with no clouds at all, and the sky still has a faint fragrance of flowers. It is a suitable day for us to leave the house, so I have decided to go to Bai Chen's Academy to meet him, to see what kind of deity this Sister Yu is, who has bewitched our little Bai Chen to a complete mess.
After waiting for a while, the door of the academy finally opened, and a group of people walked out. It could be seen that they were all rich people, and all of their clothes were extremely luxurious, even the clothes of the bookkeepers behind them were all high quality. The bookkeepers carried their young masters and mistresses out, and after looking around for a while, Bai Chen still did not come out.
"This Bai Chen, why hasn't he come out yet? If his Sister Yu leaves, I'll miss him." While complaining, I looked at every single girl who came out, but I felt that none of them looked like the Li Lingyu that Bai Chen was referring to.
Just as I was about to return home, a girl dressed in a light pink skirt barged into my line of sight. This girl's temperament was different from those of a few hungry people just now, while the other girls came out in large groups. The main reason was that the girls from earlier had dressed up a bit extravagantly and were a bit tacky.
This girl was different. When she came out, she was still holding something in her hand. After she came out, she even helped the maid carry a book case. She did not look delicate at all.
As expected, a familiar figure appeared from behind. It was Bai Chen. "Sister Yu, Sister Yu." Bai Chen anxiously shouted from behind.
Li Lingyu turned around and looked at Bai Chen, and saluted. "I've told you before, there's no need for all these formalities between us." Bai Chen made a gesture to help her up.
Li Lingyu moved quickly, and the moment Bai Chen had raised her hand, she had already stood up and took a step back to open up a distance between his and Bai Chen. The etiquette cannot be paid for. Could this young noble have something? " Li Lingyu asked cautiously.
I watched from the side, Li Lingyu's voice was also very pleasant to listen to, just listening to it was the kind of soft and sticky feeling that could be heard in a southern tune. I am a voice user, so I have to get to know this Sister Yu right after hearing such a pleasant voice, but the words that come out of such a nice voice aren't so pleasant to hear, causing Bai Chen to have an injured expression.
"Sister Yu, what in the world happened to you? It was as if you had become a completely different person." Bai Chen still had an injured expression, and the gaze he looked at Li Lingyu with was filled with doubt.
"Young prince, people can change. Don't be stubborn." Li Lingyu still had a carefree expression on her face. After sshe finished speaking, he bowed and left, leaving Bai Chen feeling sorrowful on the spot.
Looking at the two of them, I felt an inexplicable urge to laugh. Although I have seen many examples of puppy love in the twenty-first century, I didn't think much of it. Why do I feel that it's so funny looking at Bai Chen and Li Lingyu now?
It was only then that Bai Chen raised his head and saw me, his face full of shock, "Why are you here?"
"It's not because you said that your Sister Yu is a pretty good girl." I patted his shoulder and watched as Li Lingyu's horse carriage left. Hearing my words, Bai Chen's face instantly changed, his face full of pride.
"Too bad they don't want you." I hit him and sure enough, his face turned dark again.
"However, are you sure that you can talk about marriage at your age? I keep feeling that you're still young." I told her what I thought. I always felt guilty for helping two teenagers fall in love. After all, they were still high school students at my age.
"We women here are going to start a marriage engagement at the age of 14. You are already 16 and have yet to be engaged. It is already too late for us. According to your age, many people have already married and have children." Bai Chen said disapprovingly, and even looked at me in disdain after he finished speaking.
"You're too unscientific here. At such a young age, don't you know better than to get married at such a young age? I haven't had enough fun." I don't care.
Bai Chen and I rode in the same carriage, and Bai Chen was a chatterbox. While we were in the carriage, he kept on talking about the beautiful memories of his and Li Lingyu's childhood, to the point where my ears were about to listen to him talk about it. He was still talking in high spirits, like a lullaby.
Just as I was about to wake up, the carriage suddenly came to a screeching halt. I was jolted awake inside, and Bai Chen opened the curtain to ask the errand boy what was going on.
"Young nobleman, it seems to be Miss Lee's carriage, parked in the middle of the road, surrounded by a lot of people. When Bai Chen heard the words Miss Lee, he immediately changed. Before I could even react, he had already disembarked from the carriage.
