Sister, you traveled through time too?

Chapter 160 Asking for Marriage

Xiao Yun'er returned to the banquet. She looked at Xiaoyu, whose eyes were as gentle as water, and her heart inexplicably tightened.

It was like someone had kneaded her heart into a ball, and no matter how she tried to calm herself she couldn't smooth out the wrinkles.

Xiaoyu looked at Xiao Yuner's face and became worried.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable? You don't look well."

Xiaoyu said this and touched Xiao Yuner's forehead.

"It's okay, it's just a cold breeze, it will be fine after a while."

Xiao Yun'er replied with a smile, but will it really be okay?

she does not know.

The banquet was carried out with clinking of glasses and finally ended in the deep night.

It’s just that Hu Che’s smiling eyes always remind Xiao Yun’er of her brother who was once as gentle as water.

She doesn't understand love, but does her brother?

If he understood, brother would still be brother, instead of becoming a complete fool.

Xiaoyu sent Xiao Yuner back to the room and left.

Cuizhi saw Xiaoyu coming out of Xiao Yuner's room and hurried to greet her.

"Your Highness, Boss Hu wants to see you."

Cuizhi said, and told Xiaoyu that Hu Che had been waiting for her since the banquet.

Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow and wondered what this kid wanted to do now?

Last time, Hu Che expressed his admiration for her, and the two of them struggled for a while but to no avail. Is he preparing to test her again?

But Xiaoyu didn't have the leisure to argue with him today, but if he was willing, Xiaoyu was still willing to accompany him.

She didn't have much information about Hu Che, and Hu Che was very cunning, and nothing he said or did was leaky.

Such people are very smart, but it is difficult for others to treat them sincerely.

"Take Boss Hu to the tea room and wait for a while."

"How can we enjoy tea without company? Let's ask Ah Zhe to accompany our boss Hu."

"I will come after I change my clothes."

Cuizhi nodded, understood what His Highness meant, and quickly agreed to take her leave.

Xiaoyu was followed by Cuiling to change clothes.

……

The magnificent tea room in the princess's mansion was brightly lit.

Hu Che, dressed in white and wearing a luxurious fox fur coat, sat quietly in front of the tea table.

He watched Qiuzhe making tea with a smile on his face, knowing in his heart that Xiaoyu didn't want to see him.

However, this man named Qiuzhe is also very interesting.

She used to be a small attendant to the emperor, but now she has become a concubine whose name can be recorded in the jade disc, and she handles the major affairs of the Princess's Mansion in an orderly manner.

The aroma of tea from the clouds of Mount Lushan filled Hu Che's nostrils. It seemed that this concubine had done enough homework on his preferences.

"I heard that Mr. Hu loves the clouds and mists of Mount Lushan, so I prepared a lot of them.

Mr. Hu, please do me the honor of trying the tea I brewed."

Qiuzhe smiled demurely and handed the brewed tea to Hu Che.

Hu Che took a quick taste and immediately sensed the uniqueness of this tea.

"The water for making tea is aged snow water from Tianshan Mountain?"

Hu Che asked with a smile.

"Boss Hu knows the goods. He guessed it was Tianshan Snow Water after just one taste.

But it is also mixed with half of the plum blossom dew, so the tea brewed in this way has a cool fragrance. "

After Qiuzhe finished speaking, he raised his glass to toast Hu Che.

Hu Che smiled and thought that Qiu Zhe was not a simple person. After all, how could he be simple to manage such a large family business by His Highness' side for so many years?

I guess I won't be able to avoid interacting with Qiuzhe in the future, which is really troublesome.

"Lord Cejun's reputation is well-known. After meeting him today, I feel that his reputation is well-deserved. Not only is he good at managing the household, he is also proficient in other things."

Hu Che smiled and began to flatter.

"Boss Hu, you are really too kind. It is you, Boss Hu, who are really as elegant as the rumors say."

Qiuzhe maintained a dignified smile and dealt with him, saying only polite words.

This person wanted to see His Highness, but His Highness sent me to deal with him. I guess His Highness must be wary of this person.

But His Highness did not directly refuse the guest, which shows that this person must have something that His Highness values.

However, it is still unknown what His Highness' attitude towards this person is, so we can only deal with him for now.

After a while, Xiaoyu came in casual clothes.

"Boss Hu, I've kept you waiting. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

Xiaoyu was seen wearing a dark blue brocade robe, with her hair in a loose bun, and three black jade hollow carved hairpins on her hair.

Hu Che stood up and saluted with a smile, watching Xiaoyu walk towards him step by step.

The gold-thread black jade pendant on Xiaoyu's neck is very beautiful. It was picked for her by Hu Che himself that day.

Hu Che's mouth corners slightly raised, thinking, is this worn to show respect?

He sat down calmly, saying that the hospitality was very thorough and it was worth waiting for His Highness for as long as he wanted.

Xiaoyu just smiled faintly and sat quietly next to Qiuzhe.

"I wonder why Boss Hu wants to see you today?"

Xiaoyu didn't beat around the bush with him. Instead, she took a sip of her tea and asked directly.

"Hu requested an audience, specifically to apologize to His Highness."

"Perhaps Hu has been in the business world for many years and has developed a habit of flattery, which annoys Your Highness."

"But Mr. Hu has come to apologize to His Highness sincerely."

Hu Che's eyes were sincere as he took out an exquisite box and handed it to Xiaoyu.

"This is a small gift prepared by Hu. I hope Your Highness will not mind it."

Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows after hearing this, feeling somewhat confused.

She asked with some amusement:

"I don't quite understand. What did Boss Hu do wrong? Why did he come to apologize?"

Hu Che stood up and said sincerely:

"I was rude to Your Highness in my words that day. I couldn't help myself and took the liberty to express my feelings to Your Highness."

"That's why I came here specially to apologize."

After he finished speaking, he raised his charming eyes, stared at Xiaoyu sincerely, and continued:

"But, Hu really loves Your Highness, and this is obvious."

"Please, Your Highness, stay with me."

"Hu is willing to offer all the shops in the imperial city and my entire fortune as a betrothal gift to Your Highness."

"If Your Highness is willing to accept me, I will choose an auspicious day and come back to propose marriage."

After Hu Che finished speaking, his eyes were soft and charming as he stared at Xiaoyu infatuatedly.

Xiaoyu was stunned and almost dropped the teacup in her hand.

Did she hear it wrong? All her wealth?

You have to know that Hu Che, as the richest businessman in the world, is rich enough to rival a country.

She wondered in her heart, was Hu Che crazy?

Giving away all your wealth and all the shops in the imperial city as a betrothal gift, isn't that crazy?

If I were to say I admire him or like him, I'd only met him a few times.

Xiaoyu doesn't believe any words about deep love.

Merchants are all profit-oriented, and she firmly believes that there is no such thing as doing something without profit.

So she didn't believe that Hu Che, as a businessman, would give up interests to pursue love.

There must be something fishy going on here. She didn't understand what Hu Che wanted.

If someone says that it is just for her, Xiaoyu would not believe it and would never accept it.

He was willing to give up everything in order to be with her, which made Xiaoyu feel dangerous.
