After crossing, I was miserable.

Qian Duoduo regretted her words. She originally wanted to understand Sun Xinyan's attitude towards Bai Ningchuan before deciding whether she could help the two of them, but she didn't expect to be impulsive today.

After thinking it over, she decided that she should apologize to Sun Xinyan, so she called Sun Xinyan alone in Qian Xinxin's tone.

When Sun Xinyan saw Qian Duoduo, she was still a little surprised.

"Mr. Qian? Where's Xinxin?"

Qian Duoduo coughed twice and spoke in his original voice.

"It's me, Xinyan."

Sun Xinyan was stunned on the spot and looked at Qian Duoduo in disbelief.

She was a little confused now, not knowing what was going on. She didn't know whether Qian Duoduo was her brother or sister.

Although the voice is Xinxin, but this...

Qian Duoduo had no choice but to put Sun Xinyan's hand on his chest.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you. I have my own reasons."

When Sun Xinyan's hand touched Qian Duoduo's chest, she was so scared that she quickly pulled her hand away. Now she was sure that this was Xinxin, but also Qian Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo roughly told Sun Xinyan about his situation to avoid being misunderstood.

The reason why Qian Duoduo dared to tell Sun Xinyan everything was because he believed in Sun Xinyan's character and her tight-lipped personality.

It’s not that I don’t trust Ningning, it’s just that Ningning’s personality is a bit careless. I’m afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so I will find a suitable opportunity to explain the situation later.

Sun Xinyan was a little angry at first because she was deceived, but after hearing Qian Duoduo's experience, she could no longer be angry.

One can imagine how difficult it is for a woman to survive in this helpless capital city.

This may be the best way to protect yourself.

Although the Chu State did not have many restrictions on women, women could go out on the streets, do business, and be teachers...

But women are still a vulnerable group and still cannot be as free as men.

Various etiquette, words and deeds restrict women more, especially women from aristocratic families.

Sun Xinyan calmed down and said slowly,

"Why did you reveal your identity so suddenly? Do you need my help? Or are you in trouble?"

Qian Duoduo was really touched. Not only did Sun Xinyan not blame her, but she wanted to help her. Thinking of this, she felt even more guilty.

"I'm here to apologize to you." Qian Duoduo lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Sun Xinyan.

"Apologize? Why? Apologize for hiding your identity?"

"That's the first point. The second and more important point is that I overstepped my authority. Please forgive me for my behavior. I should have discussed it with you."

Sun Xinyan was confused, so Qian Duoduo took this opportunity to ask her about her feelings for Bai Ningchuan. If possible, she still hoped that Sun Xinyan could find someone who loved her.

Qian Duoduo first explained to Sun Xinyan what he saw at the rockery in the racecourse, which indirectly confirmed for Bai Ningchuan that he did not do anything that crossed the line.

Then he talked about the conversation between them when he met Bai Ningchuan yesterday, and told Sun Xinyan everything he said word for word.

And took the initiative to apologize for his presumptuous behavior.

She didn't want Sun Xinyan to know that she had persuaded Bai Ningchuan in the future, thinking that she was acting on her own and interfering in other people's lives.

We cannot be self-righteous and think that we are doing this for the good of others. The feeling of "good" is up to the person involved to decide.

It would be bad if the other person felt that you were interfering with her private life. Of course, if Sun Xinyan really felt that way, Qian Duoduo would definitely keep his mouth shut and not get involved in anything at will.

After Qian Duoduo finished telling everything, Sun Xinyan didn't say anything for a long time. She just sat there quietly drinking tea.

Qian Duoduo didn't say too much and gave Sun Xinyan some time to digest the matter.

I'm already sorry for dressing up as a man, and now I'm taking over other people's lives without permission. No one would be happy about this.

After a long time, Sun Xinyan could only ask:

"Brother Bai really said that?"

“Ah? Ah!

He said that he had nothing to do with Miss Yang. He had saved Miss Yang before because of some things and knew that she was bullied by Huangfu Yucheng, so... "

Qian Duoduo saw that Sun Xinyan's face didn't look good, so he didn't know what to say next.

It’s over. Has she gotten into trouble again? When did she become so careless with her mouth?

"Xinyan, if you treat me as a friend, tell me the truth, do you have feelings for Mr. Bai? Do you like him?

Or is it just the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words?"

"Like? Do I like him?"

Sun Xinyan suddenly remembered the scene when she first saw Bai Ningchuan as a child.

When she was little, she was very naughty and liked to climb trees. But because Bai Ningchuan and Mr. Bai suddenly came to visit, she was so scared that she fell directly from the tree. It was Bai Ningchuan who rushed over and caught her with his body.

When she saw him clearly, his white clothes were dirty. His neatly tied hair was messy. He looked a little dishevelled.

In fact, she had known for a long time that this was her future husband, but she was a little disgusted by his thinness because when she was a child she wanted to be a general's wife because she thought generals were very majestic.

But after this time, she felt that he was a good person and could protect her in the future.

In order to make herself more worthy of him, she began to learn housekeeping, financial knowledge, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and everything he liked.

Gradually, he became her center of attention.

She thought that when they grew up, she would happily marry him.

Unexpectedly, when she grew up and understood more, she also knew what he was thinking.

It turned out that he just treated her as a sister and their marriage as a responsibility.

He was nice to her, but she could feel that there was no so-called love here, only family affection.

If life continues like this, she will accept it.

But she didn't expect that he would change. He would take the initiative to help others and get along better with other girls than she did.

She also felt unwilling, jealous, sad, and even thought about breaking off the engagement.

But in the end, she still couldn't bear to do it.

He trusted her very much and knew that she would not be jealous, because that was the temperament cultivated by the eldest daughter of a large family, and women should not be jealous.

She smiled bitterly. Why couldn't she be jealous?

Qian Duoduo looked at Sun Xinyan's changing expression and knew that she must be feeling bad.

She felt like she had stirred up a hornet's nest again. Just when she thought Sun Xinyan would not answer,

"What does it matter whether you like it or not? Life has to go on after all."

"Of course it's different."

Qian Duoduo needs to think carefully about how to persuade Sun Xinyan, because this is not an era that advocates free love, and women in this era have too many constraints.

But fortunately, Qian Duoduo felt that the two people were not without feelings for each other.

"Xinyan, I'm not lying to you. Bai Ningchuan is not without feelings for you. Look at him, when he saw you leave, he turned his face away and was very angry. It's obvious that he still cares about you in his heart."

Sun Xinyan laughed at herself, she felt that Bai Ningchuan had more responsibilities towards her.

"How about this, trust me, we can give it a try when we have a chance. Anyway, the result won't be worse than it is now."

Sun Xinyan was a little overwhelmed, what if...

"Give it a try. There's no shame in fighting for someone you like. What's more, this is your future husband."

Qian Duoduo laughed wildly, and Sun Xinyan was also infected.
