Chapter 139: You don’t need to be smart all the time when you like someone

Shen Yanxi glanced in the direction of Chu Changhe, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Is it possible that you and Chu Changhe will get engaged?"

"What?" Jiang Suining suspected that he had misheard.

"You and Chu Changhe have known each other before, and you are indeed more friendly than me. Is there any possibility of you two getting engaged?" Shen Yanxi looked at Jiang Suining seriously.

Although he knew that he was most likely overthinking it, and seeing Chu Changhe and Jiang Suining in the Jiang family lobby just now, it didn't look like they had discussed an engagement, but he still wanted to ask Jiang Suining and confirm it himself.

Jiang Suining looked at Shen Yanxi with complicated eyes. She had just thought of many reasons for his sudden appearance, and even wondered if Shen Yanxi regretted giving Dongzhu to her and wanted to take it back. However, she silently rejected this idea after seeing Shen Yanxi's humble and enthusiastic appearance.

But why didn't she think that Shen Yanxi was actually doing this for herself and Chu Changhe?

"Shen Yanxi, you are in the current state now. I have some doubts whether your future career will really be smooth." Jiang Suining said with some amusement.

In her previous life, although she had only met Shen Yanxi a few times, the impression he left on her was that he was decisive, wise and scheming, and he was definitely not like he is now.

"So I'm overthinking?"

"Yes, you think too much. Chu Changhe and I are just friends." Jiang Suining nodded.

Shen Yanxi smiled and continued, "If you want to choose a son-in-law, am I the first one?"

Jiang Suining did not answer, but looked at Shen Yanxi with an increasingly complicated look, "Mr. Shen, has anyone told you that you don't look very smart now?"

Shen Yanxi's smile remained unchanged, "No need for anyone to tell me, I know."

"Then why did you..."

"But why should I be smart all the time?" Shen Yanxi stared at Jiang Suining seriously.

He knew from the beginning that his approach was not smart when facing Jiang Suining.

Today, instead of asking Jiang Suining directly, he only needs to think of some ways and can find out the truth without having to visit him in person.

Also, before, he knew Jiang Suining would most likely reject him, but he still expressed his feelings directly. In fact, he could have found a way to get closer to Jiang Suining step by step, occupy a position in her heart, and then express his feelings after everything was settled. As for those who came to propose marriage, if they really wanted to do it, there were ways to ruin it.

However, rather than playing tricks behind her back, he would rather stand in front of Jiang Suining honestly and tell her his feelings sincerely.

He had never liked anyone before, but he felt that when facing someone he liked, he didn't need to be smart and rational all the time and choose the method that was most beneficial to him. Compared with these, he was more willing to sincerely and directly expose his heart to Jiang Suining and let her know all his feelings.

Jiang Suining looked at Shen Yanxi in a daze. Yes, when facing someone you like, you don’t necessarily need to be smart all the time. Sometimes honesty is indeed more precious than having tact.

But perhaps it was because she had too deep an impression of Shen Yanxi's rapid rise in the court in her previous life, so when she first met Shen Yanxi, she had already had a preconceived impression, so she never thought that Shen Yanxi would have such a side.

Is it because he is still a young man? So he is frank and enthusiastic. Or is it because I know too little about Shen Yanxi and he is just like that?

Jiang Suining suppressed his thoughts, looked at Shen Yanxi and said, "Mr. Shen is right, it is indeed not necessary."

Shen Yanxi smiled again, "Then can you answer my question now? If you want to choose a son-in-law, will I be the first person you consider?"

Jiang Suining looked at the nervousness that was not completely hidden under the smile, and suddenly smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes."

A smile quickly burst out of Shen Yanxi's eyes, as bright as sunlight.

Jiang Suining looked at him quietly, frankly and sincerely, without any concealment. Such a young man really made her heart beat faster, but she still spoke the next moment.

"However, I still have no plans to get married. Mr. Shen can take back the Dongzhu at any time. I also don't want Mr. Shen to have any expectations because of what I said, and waste his thoughts and time in vain."

The young man at this moment was indeed attractive, but it was not enough to make her change her direction.

Shen Yanxi smiled and said, "It's okay. Just stick to your plan. But if you change your mind one day, remember to tell me."

The afternoon sunlight slanted down outside the Jiang Family Mansion, but it did not show the desolate signs of setting. Instead, it exuded a sense of brightness and joy.

Shen Yanxi left. Jiang Suining stood at the gate of the mansion and watched Shen Yanxi walk away.

"Although I haven't had much contact with Shen Yanxi, I have heard of his talent for a long time. And after talking with him today, I feel that he is indeed talented and has great ambitions." Chu Changhe walked to Jiang Suining, his tone revealing his sincere praise for Shen Yanxi.

"I know." Jiang Suining glanced at Chu Changhe, "Shen Yanxi is indeed excellent."

Chu Changhe laughed, "I think he likes you very much."

Jiang Suining raised his eyebrows, "I know this too."

Seeing this, Chu Changhe just smiled and said nothing more.

Jiang Mushi asked, "Sister, what did he say to you just now?"

"Nothing, just chat."

Jiang Mushi naturally didn't believe this, "Sister, although Shen Yanxi is indeed beautiful and talented, and there is nothing wrong with her, you should not make a decision lightly. Getting married is a big deal, and you must think it through carefully."

He is not yet ready for his sister to get married like this.

"You really think too much." Jiang Suining shook her head. Seeing that Jiang Mushi seemed to be going on, she turned to Chu Changhe and asked, "It's getting late today. Do you still want to meet Master Yu and the others?"

"Go." Chu Changhe nodded, "I'll hurry up."

"That's perfect. You can take him with you, and ask Master Liu if he can give him more homework on weekdays, so that he doesn't have to be idle like this."

"Sister..."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll wait for you to come back for dinner." Jiang Suining waved his hand. "I still have things to do, so I'll go in first."

Jiang Suining had nothing to do today. He just didn't want to continue listening to Jiang Mushi's nagging, so he casually said that he had something to do.

But she didn't expect that not long after she returned to the yard, a servant came to report that the manager of Ningyu Manor had arrived and was waiting outside the mansion to see her.

When the servant brought the person in, the shopkeeper immediately said as soon as he saw Jiang Suining: "Miss, something happened."
