Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

"Brother Yunqi, I finally caught up with you."

Zhou Wenli rode over and his cheerful voice could be heard from a distance.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a flamboyant man of about seventeen or eighteen riding a horse running towards them, followed by two carriages.

Yunqi frowned slightly, but still stood up and went to greet him.

"Mr. Zhou, why are you here?"

Zhou Wenli dismounted and put his arm around Yunqi's neck as usual.

"Why are you so distant with me today? You always called me by my name before."

Yun Qi raised his eyes to look at him, and seeing that he was not at all distant, he guessed that Zhou Ling probably had not told him about the rift between them yesterday.

He smiled gently and didn't respond, but he also didn't show any intention of changing the address.

Zhou Wenli glanced at him and saw that he didn't change his address back to that, so he didn't dwell on it any more.

"I'm going to the prefecture city. A cousin of mine is going to marry her daughter off in a few days. We received her invitation two days ago, so my father sent me and my younger sister to congratulate her. We thought you were going to Hepu County today, so we could go to the prefecture city together. So we decided to set off today. But I didn't expect you to leave so early. When I sent someone to talk to you about this, you had already left the city. My sister and I hurried over and finally caught up with you."

As he spoke, he looked at the carriage behind, and then started winking at Yunqi.

Yun Qi knew what he meant. He was teasing him and Zhou Ling.

He didn't know why Zhou Ling didn't make things clear with Zhou Wenli, but he didn't like this feeling. In the past, he thought that being teased about their love was fine, but now, when it was clear that there would be no future for them, being teased again made him feel very annoyed.

But since no one else said anything else, he couldn't say much, so he could only say,

"Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry, our schedule is very slow. If you follow us, I'm afraid it will delay your trip. You should go first."

Zhou Wenli seemed not to be able to hear the refusal in his words, "It won't delay. I'll see to it."

He glanced in the direction of Ying Tianchen, not knowing what was going on over there. If they were in a hurry, his team would have to keep up. If they were walking leisurely with the Yun family, he would have to slow down.

That’s right, the main target of the Zhou brothers and sisters was not Yunqi, but Ying Tianchen.

The Zhou family suspected that Ying Tianchen had an extraordinary identity, mainly because of his innate demeanor, which could not be concealed even if he wanted to.

Zhou Ling was frustrated by Yun Xi and Yun Qi yesterday, and she was furious when she returned. But she also shared her findings. She felt that Ying Tianchen was the young master of the Seven Stars Building. Even if he was not, he should be related to the Seven Stars Building.

The Zhou family went to inquire overnight. It should be easy to find out about a person with their influence in Xiemu County. But they could not find out anything except that they were officials from Cangwu County.

This further proves that his identity is mysterious, just like the owner of the Seven Stars Tower.

When they thought about the fact that the only people these people had come into contact with after coming here were the county government and the Qixing Tower, they became even more suspicious.

This morning, they not only received the news that the Yun family had left the city, but also received the news that Ying Tianchen and others had left the city.

Zhou's family couldn't sit still any longer. How could he suddenly pass away?

How can people leave when they haven’t even established a relationship yet?

If he really is the young master of the Seven Stars Tower, it would not be such a pity to let him go like this.

After thinking about it, Mr. Zhou asked Zhou Wenli and Zhou Ling to pack up their things and rush to Cangwu County.

It just so happened that two days ago, they received news that a relative in Cangwu County was getting his daughter married, which was a perfect excuse for the two of them to go and congratulate him.

They also thought that if this person was really related to the Seven Stars Tower, they would definitely go with Yun Qi. Yun Qi couldn't walk fast with the Yun clan members, so they would definitely catch up.

If this person has nothing to do with the Seven Stars Tower, or is not traveling with the Yun family, since he is from Cangwu County, the brother and sister can find out something when they arrive in the county capital.

If it was really a remarkable person, Zhou Ling would take action. If it was really just an official, they would not suffer any loss, and would only spend time to go to the county capital.

Besides, the Yunqi brothers and sisters have not yet vented their anger about their attitude towards Zhou Ling. It would be good if they could vent it on the way.

In this way, Zhou Wenli and Zhou Ling were very happy to go to the county capital. The two hurried and finally caught up with the Yun family. They also saw Ying Tianchen and others with them, and Zhou Wenli and Zhou Ling were overjoyed.

Zhou Wenli knew that if he wanted to talk to Ying Tianchen, he would have to rely on Yun Qi as the middleman, and it was not the time to break up yet.

Therefore, he was still as casual and friendly as usual when interacting with Yunqi.

Yun Qi really didn't want to go with them. It would be fine if Zhou Wenli was alone, but Zhou Ling was also there. After yesterday, he never thought about meeting Zhou Ling again.

He didn't want to think too badly of others, but the facts were before him and he couldn't help thinking about it.

All the signs in the past showed that Zhou Ling had no romantic feelings for him at all. Since she didn't have any, she still gave herself the illusion and hope.

If that was all, maybe she wouldn't be too disappointed in her. She was just too stupid to see the tricks people were playing on her. But she shouldn't have slandered her own sister.

If I were a confused brother or didn't understand my younger sister, I would probably hold a grudge against her for the rest of my life.

He didn't even want to meet such a person with ulterior motives, let alone travel with him.

But this road was not his, and he couldn't just stop people from going there. He couldn't ask his people to walk faster and leave them behind.

Yun Qi sighed inwardly, broke away Zhou Wenli's hand on his shoulder, and said, "Then you guys can do whatever you want. Just don't delay your trip. I have something else to do, so I'll go over first."

After saying that, he went to his family without looking back.

At this time, Yun Xi and Yun Yan, brother and sister, were huddled together and whispering to each other.

"Little sister, what do you think that Zhou wants to do? Isn't she here to chase after her eldest brother? Does she really want to be our sister-in-law?"

Yun Xi put her hand to her mouth and said, "Probably not. What I said yesterday was not nice. If Zhou Ling has any dignity, she would not still want Big Brother."

"I'm just afraid she's shameless."

"If she has no shame, there's nothing to be afraid of. At worst, I can just take the opportunity to rub her face against the ground."

Yun Yan nodded, thinking that his younger sister was absolutely right. If the other party had no shame, there was no need to give her face.

Yun Qi came over and saw the two people whispering. He tapped each of them on the head and said with a smile, "What are you two talking about, whispering?"

The brother and sister both held their heads, staring at Yunqi with their identical big almond-shaped eyes, their eyes full of accusations.

"Brother, it hurts." Yun Xi said pitifully.

Yunqi hurriedly rubbed the place where he had hit her just now, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have hit his younger sister's head.

"Brother, it hurts too." Yun Yan imitated his sister.

Yunqi rolled his eyes and slapped him again in annoyance.
