Chapter 184

Wei Cailing's heart skipped a beat, "How can I, the daughter of a sixth-rank official, help the prince? This is obviously ridiculous."

Shi Yunqi didn't mince words, "I'm afraid His Highness King Jin misunderstood something and couldn't tell who was the destined person he was looking for, so he wanted to marry them all."

Wei Cailing was not worried about herself at this time, but Shi Anxia.

After solving the lantern riddles tonight, she felt from the bottom of her heart that His Highness Prince Jin was not worthy of this good, thoughtful but kind-hearted girl from the Marquis Mansion.

Although His Highness Prince Jin looks like a dog, he is actually a fool. Even if he couldn't answer the lantern riddles, he even cheated.

Forget it if you cheat, how can anyone memorize the questions and only the answers?

There is gold and jade on the outside, but ruins on the inside, that's him.

Wei Cailing straightened her back, raised her head and asked, "But do you need Cailing to do anything?"

When she thought about it, someone as smart as An Xia would naturally look down on His Highness Prince Jin.

Since both of them are targets, does one have to be sacrificed first before making any plans? She is older and her family background is low, so she naturally has to take the lead.

Shi Yunqi knew that she had misunderstood, "My sister has not yet reached hairpin age, and there is still time to deal with it. But Miss Wei, your marriage is now imminent."

Wei Cailing's eyes fell on the man's clean and jade-like face in disbelief, but she felt her heart heat up, and the joy of being cared for suddenly filled her eyes.

She had been mentally prepared to bear the burden of the past kindnesses between the two brothers and sisters of the Shi family.

But the man's words were full of concern for her.

Wei Cailing couldn't help but ask, "Master Shi, how do you think I should get out of trouble?"

Shi Yunqi clenched his fists and felt his palms sweating.

He avoided her gaze, his ears reddened, "Miss Wei, if... you agree, I would like to ask my mother to go to the Wei Mansion to propose marriage to you in the next two days. This way, the dilemma will be solved immediately."

Wei Cailing's cheeks were also burning red, and the handkerchief in her hand was wrinkled.

She had experienced situations ten times worse than now in her dreams, but she gradually calmed down after hearing this.

She had to ask some questions clearly, "Is Mr. Shi proposing marriage because he wants to help Cai Ling get out of trouble?"

She thought he would think about it for a long time, but the boy's eyes were shy, but firm and warm, and he immediately answered her doubts, "No. I originally thought that I would ask my mother to go to the Wei Mansion to propose marriage after I passed the imperial examination in the spring..."

"Aren't you afraid that my father and mother will discuss my marriage by then?" Wei Cailing was filled with relief when she got the answer she wanted.

Shi Yunqi looked at her smiling face, his eyebrows also curved, "It won't be so fast, will it?"

Wei Cailing felt like a little deer had lived in her heart. She smiled and avoided answering, "Then... Cailing will go home now. My brother and Xiao Pingting are still waiting for me in the carriage at the intersection."

Shi Yun snorted "Hmm" and looked at her turned back. The joy of getting her wish spread from her hot chest to the tip of her tongue, "Then I'll tell my mother when I get back."

Wei Cailing's face turned red with embarrassment, and her body, which was originally extremely afraid of the cold, became warm.

She didn't turn around, but her voice reached his ears, "Cai Ling is waiting for you to propose marriage at home..."

At that time, Shi Anxia had arrived home.

As soon as he got off the carriage, he was stopped by Mu Lan who was guarding the door, "Miss An Xia, you are back. Our lady has been waiting for you for a long time."

"What happened?" Shi Anxia raised his eyes and looked at the red festive lanterns at the door of the Hou Mansion, and asked unhurriedly.

Mu Lan held a lantern to light the way for the girl, "Today, my eldest aunt brought my cousin and my cousin back to the mansion from Huizhou..."
