The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 614 Visiting to Propose Marriage (1)_1

Yang Boyan, dressed in moon-white robes, stood under the elm tree holding a Colored Glaze Flower Lantern, his face beaming with smiles as he waved at Pei Qian.

Pei Qian looked at him as if he were the embodiment of elegance, smiling back at her with the Colored Glaze Flower Lantern in hand... Then she glanced at what she was holding, realizing it was a matched set, and her face instantly flushed red.

"Do you like the Lotus Lantern?" Yang Boyan asked, stepping forward with a smile.

Pei Qian scoffed, "Are you trying to ruin my reputation, or what? Making such a showy display, so many people have seen this already, there’s no need to wait until tomorrow, they’ll start gossiping about me right away!"

Yang Boyan looked at her rarely blushing face and inched closer, "Just a few Lotus Lanterns, how is that considered extravagant! Don’t you like them?" freēnovelkiss.com

"Who would like that! Get lost!" Pei Qian glared at him with indignation.

Yang Boyan watched her purse her lips and smile, then reached out and grabbed her hand, "Since you don’t like it, let me show you something less extravagant!" and with that, he pulled her along.

"Where are you dragging me to? Let go! If anyone sees, my reputation will be completely ruined!" Pei Qian said urgently, struggling.

Yang Boyan picked up the Colored Glaze Flower Lantern in his hand and blew it out, then bent down to extinguish hers as well, plunging the surroundings into pitch darkness, illuminated only by the scattered starlight overhead.

Pei Qian, pulled along by him, would resist, and he would pull her closer, dragging her out of the village, "Where on earth are you taking me? Let me tell you, I know martial arts!"

Yang Boyan chuckled softly, holding her slender hand tighter. Compared to those pampered hands that never touched spring water, her small hand felt just right in his grasp.

Pei Qin, carrying Jiujiu, walked briskly despite her burden.

Mo Heng frowned, "Let me carry Jiujiu."

As soon as Jiujiu heard that, her small arms clung tighter around her mother’s neck. She no longer liked her stern-faced daddy!

Pei Qin looked at her daughter’s antics, "It’s better if I carry her!" Aren’t daughters supposed to be clingy to their daddies? Surely, even her daughter disliked the gloomy man!

Mo Heng, observing his wife and daughter shunning him, had an even darker expression on his handsome face.

They followed the path to the outskirts of the village near the riverbank, the Willow Forest, when suddenly a slap rang out.

Pei Qin paused, "What’s going on?"

"Someone is being hit." Mo Heng replied quietly.

Pei Qian’s cursing and sounds of beating began to carry over, "You filthy rascal! Dead rascal! How dare you take liberties with me!"

"Ouch! Ah! That hurts!" Yang Boyan cried out in a low voice.

Pei Qin’s eyebrows twitched as she listened.

It wasn’t long before Pei Qian, her face flushed with shame, came running out, throwing away the Colored Glaze Flower Lantern.

"Qianqian! Don’t go! I really didn’t mean to!" Yang Boyan called out from behind, picking up the Colored Glaze Flower Lantern and chasing after her.

Just as he came out, he saw Pei Qin and Mo Heng with Jiujiu, the family of three at the roadside watching him, which gave Yang Boyan quite a shock, "My heavens... you... scared me to death!"

"If you can be scared to death, then you must have done quite a few guilty things, huh!?" Pei Qin eyed him critically.

Yang Boyan felt suffocated; who wouldn’t be half-dead with fright after being caught in the act by his sweetheart’s family?

"Did you set up those things in the river?" Pei Qin asked him.

"...Yes... I did! I feel..." Yang Boyan admitted.

Pei Qin cut him off, "Clean it up later! Don’t pollute the river!" With that, she turned and walked away, holding Jiujiu.

Mo Heng glanced at him without a word, joining Pei Qin as they walked away together.

Yang Boyan stood still with a greenish hue on his face, holding the Colored Glaze Flower Lantern he had worked hard to obtain. Everyone else’s schemes worked wonders, why were his so ineffective?! And there was Pei Qin, totally unromantic! How dazzling and beautiful were the Lotus Lanterns on the river!? She actually complained about river pollution. He really didn’t know what Mo Heng, with his heavenly talents, saw in her! Even Little Chili would have been better!
