Jiaojiao is getting married, and the male leads fall for her and fight over her.

Chapter 82: She turned evil and was thrown out of the carriage...

Pei Nanzhou's words took Shen Shuyi by surprise.

She has to do missions, and Pei Nanzhou is keeping a close eye on her. How is she going to do missions in the future?

She can't possibly have Pei Nanzhou by her side all the time when she's doing missions, can she?

Pei Nanzhou clearly noticed Shen Shuyi's surprised expression and sneered, "What, are you feeling guilty, cousin?"

Shen Shuyi was growing increasingly disgusted with Pei Nanzhou, but if this man was constantly watching her, it was best for her not to antagonize him.

Endure a moment of anger, and the world will be vast and boundless; simply treat this person as if they don't exist.

Thinking of this, she replied calmly, "It's really hard on you, cousin, for someone as insignificant as me to go to so much trouble. In that case, I'll leave the matter of finding a partner to you to trouble you, second cousin."

Since the system hasn't assigned any tasks yet, Pei Nanzhou can do whatever he wants.

She once thought Pei Nanzhou was one of the safest male leads, but now it seems that he is the troublesome one.

Shen Shuyi had no idea who her date was today. Pei Nanzhou disliked her so much, would he really find her some old geezer?

On their way to Puji Temple, Shen Shuyi and Pei Nanzhou each rode in a carriage.

Upon arriving at their destination, Shen Shuyi didn't speak to Pei Nanzhou. She knew Pei Nanzhou disliked her, so she wouldn't waste her time trying to win his favor.

She didn't want to go on any more blind dates, since she was busy making money, but Pei Nanzhou was eager to marry her off, leaving her no choice at all.

Pei Nanzhou was a little unaccustomed to Shen Shuyi being so quiet. Having seen her arrogant and domineering nature, and knowing that she would often seduce Pei Shizi and Xizhou, he thought she would seize every opportunity to seduce him.

He even planned that if she dared to seduce him, he would definitely embarrass her.

Shen Shuyi was actually afraid that the system would assign her a task to seduce Pei Nanzhou. Fortunately, the system had been keeping a low profile recently and hadn't been online for quite some time.

Before long, Shen Shuyi met the man she was to meet. He was fair-skinned and dressed simply, like a refined scholar. However, he had come alone.

For some reason, the man stared at her intently as soon as he saw her, looking her up and down, which made her feel uneasy.

Pei Nanzhou probably didn't expect that the man would stare at Shen Shuyi as soon as he saw her, as if he had never seen a woman before. How could one entrust one's life to such a person?

However, out of courtesy, he suppressed his displeasure and introduced Shen Shuyi, "This is Lord He Ming, the Registrar of the Imperial Observatory."

When Shen Shuyi heard that this person worked at the Imperial Observatory, her heart skipped a beat. But when she heard that he was a registrar, in charge of internal affairs, she relaxed a little.

But it was obvious that He Ming was very interested in her. He greeted her warmly, "Miss Shen, my name is He Ming. May I read your palm?"

Shen Shuyi thought to herself, "Of course not. Isn't He Ming an office worker? Why is he looking at my palm right away? Does he think he can tell that I am a soul from another world?"
She felt very guilty, but fortunately, Pei Nanzhou spoke coldly at this moment: "Lord He, this request is too impolite for your first meeting with Cousin Shen!"

He Ming also felt he had been impolite, but the moment he saw this Miss Shen, he sensed that she was no ordinary person. She seemed to possess a strange aura, but his cultivation was not deep enough to discern the origin of this aura.

He immediately developed a strong interest in Shen Shuyi: "May I speak with Miss Shen alone for a while?"

"Absolutely not!" Pei Nanzhou said without hesitation.

He hadn't expected that this seemingly normal Lord He was actually a wicked man. Letting his cousin Shen be alone with He Ming was like throwing a lamb to the slaughter. Shen Shuyi didn't want to get too involved with He Ming either. Fortunately, Pei Nanzhou refused He Ming's request, which relieved her.

He Ming, however, seemed oblivious to Shen Shuyi's coldness: "May I see your palm, young lady?"

"Sir, this request is too abrupt. I am afraid I cannot agree to it," Shen Shuyi politely declined.

“But I am very interested in Miss Shen. To put it this way, I have taken a liking to Miss Shen. Would Miss Shen consider me?” He Ming said enthusiastically.

Shen Shuyi groaned in despair. She felt that He Ming's interest in her might stem from the fact that she was possessing the original body, not her original one.

She dared not have any further dealings with He Ming and directly refused, saying, "I am not interested in Lord He, and I have not taken a liking to him."

He Ming didn't want to give up like this: "I work at the Imperial Observatory. Although I'm just a registrar now, I might be promoted soon. I—"

"Does Lord He not understand human language? My cousin said she didn't take a liking to you, Lord He. You should know when to stop. This meeting ends here!" Pei Nanzhou couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward, grabbed Shen Shuyi's hand, and left.

Shen Shuyi thought Pei Nanzhou had a really bad temper and had been a bit impolite just now.

She turned back to He Ming and smiled apologetically: "Lord He is very outstanding. It is my daughter who is not worthy of you. Please do not take offense, Lord He..."

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Nanzhou exerted force with his hand, almost breaking her hand bones, causing her to fall silent from the pain.

Once he had dragged her away, Pei Nanzhou shouted, "Cousin, can't you see that this man has a wicked heart?"

"No, Lord He is a very nice person. He's not the kind of person my cousin thinks he is." Shen Shuyi knew that the reason He Wei wanted to read her palm was probably because he saw something different about her than others. He Ming was just having a professional habit.

Pei Nanzhou almost laughed in exasperation: "According to my cousin, does that mean any man is fine?"

Just how desperate for a man is she? He Ming's eyes were practically glued to her just now, and she was still smiling at him like an idiot, so incredibly foolish.

"No, Lord He is really not the kind of person my cousin thinks he is..." Seeing Pei Nanzhou's gloomy eyes, she suddenly felt that this was not in line with Pei Er's character.

He was a celibate, aloof beauty, but now his character seems a bit like Pei Si?

Pei Si is going for a gloomy and damp style, could it be that Pei Er is going to turn evil because of Xia Nianchu?

Thinking of this possibility, she offered Pei Nanzhou a suggestion: "Does Second Cousin like Cousin Xia? Should I help you play matchmaker?"

If Pei Nanzhou is going to pursue Xia Nianchu, he won't have time to keep a close eye on her, which is a great thing for her.

Pei Nanzhou pursed his thin lips, and Shen Shuyi said again, "Although Cousin Xia is now closer to Fourth Cousin, I think that as long as Second Cousin makes a move, he will definitely have a chance to win Cousin Xia's heart."

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Nanzhou suddenly abandoned her and strode away.

The most tragic thing was that the autumn rain started suddenly. By the time she got into the carriage, Pei Nanzhou's carriage had already left.

Shen Shuyi was also worried that something might happen, so she told the coachman to hurry up. But after leaving Puji Temple, the rain got heavier and heavier.

With a sudden jolt, the carriage veered off the mountain road, throwing her out and tumbling down the slope...

　Haha, so frustrating! I was locked out, but I ended up having to pick the lock.
