When Yan Xiyu mentioned Qin Xuan, her expression couldn’t hide her disdain, and the Second Elder immediately understood.

It seems this daughter of the Yan family is not fond of this marriage.

"Well, sooner or later you two are going to marry. It’s only right for him to meet his future wife and develop feelings early on."

The Second Elder pretended ignorance while actually understanding. She sent someone to fetch ’Qin Xuan’, and as Yan Xiyu heard the word ’marriage’, it immediately made her grimace, looking utterly nauseated.

Qin Xuan has a notorious reputation; it’s said that he is Old Lady Qin’s kept boy, and her so-called mother actually wants her to pick up a worn-out shoe. How malicious her intentions are!

This is deliberately humiliating her!

Yan Xiyu clenched her palm, feeling even more resentful towards Yan Family Master, yet she strived to appear calm.

Unfortunately, she had long given herself away; her feelings were written all over her face, making it hard to deceive experienced old foxes like the Second Elder.

...

Yue Ning had just fallen asleep for a while when he was interrupted by someone sent by the Second Elder.

He rubbed his eyes drowsily, furiously ruffled his hair, then vigorously rubbed the corner of his eyes, putting on an appearance of having a severe case of morning grumpiness, grumbling harshly at those servants who appeared respectful but secretly mocked him.

After a while, he freshened up, wearing a blue robe that made him look remarkably poised and elegant.

Unfortunately.

He was simply too tall, not the type favored by Dayuan women.

Given Dayuan’s warped aesthetic, women being too short and men being too tall are both considered faults, comparable to monsters born with three eyes and four heads, not conforming to the current mainstream beauty standards, thus often scorned and disliked.

Yue Ning strolled slowly as if taking a leisurely walk, the servant leading the way couldn’t help but twitch his mouth.

"Young Master, can you hurry up? Second Elder is still waiting over there."

Yue Ning squinted, "Let her wait if she wants, it’s not me asking her to wait."

These words were quite irresponsible.

The servant couldn’t help but internally complain, you can act arrogant if you want, you countryside bumpkin, empty-headed fool, oblivious and arrogant.

Truly baffling, Old Lady Qin was shrewd all her life, how come she is interested in such a fool now?

Yue Ning suddenly narrowed his eyes, creating a fierce expression.

"Are you daring to insult me?"

The servant: "???"

Yue Ning smirked, "Don’t think I don’t know just because you didn’t say it. You’re probably mentally insulting me right now."

Servant: "..."

Damn, you’re not a worm in my stomach, it’s just two words of internal complaint, yet you could even see that?

Couldn’t help but wonder, is this person really dumb or pretending?

Yue Ning maintained an appearance of righteousness.

"Grandma told me that anyone who looks at me like that is looking down on me, and if they dare to look down on me, just beat them to death. Since I’m the Young Master of the Qin Family, I probably still have this bit of authority, don’t you think?"

Last night, Yixuan noticed Yue Ning’s plan, knowing that Yue Ning was deliberately showing weakness to the enemy.

But Yixuan didn’t want to see Fifth Brother constantly wronging himself, so Yixuan once told Yue Ning.

No need to tolerate these people, these matters of the Qin family.

Now, although Yue Ning is pushed onto the stage, making people believe he is the Young Master of the Qin Family, but...
