Chapter 245 - 244: Unpleasant
It was the moment when the evening glow filled the sky, and the rose-colored glow tinted Chen Afu’s bright cheeks with a layer of rouge, making them even more beautiful. However, she had lost a lot of weight.
A woman as beautiful as jade. Thinking of the little hand that he held that night, soft and smooth, Chu Lingxuan felt a ripple in his heart and quickly clenched his hand into a fist.
He smiled and said, "I’ve already discussed it with your father and mother. I will accompany you back to the countryside tomorrow. My grandfather and my third aunt left yesterday with Yan’er for Yingxue Nunnery, as my third aunt is eager to see my mother. Next year, before delivering the betrothal gifts to Mr. Chen’s family, our Chu family will first send a betrothal gift to Lu Garden. You were raised by your parents, we cannot let them suffer."
Chen Afu was grateful that he had thought of this, considering the Chen family’s daughter getting married under the Chen family’s roof, which was indeed a great humiliation to Chen Ming and Mrs. Wang. If the Chu family could show them such honor, it would make Chen Ming and Mrs. Wang feel better.
She spoke softly, "Thank you, Mr. Chu."
Chu Lingxuan shook his head and said, "Afu, are you still calling me Mr. Chu?"
Chen Afu asked, "What should I call you then?" She definitely couldn’t call him Lingxuan, Xiao Xuan, or Xuan Xuan, right? This was not modern times where nicknames like ’sweetie’ would be applicable.
"Anything but sir," Chu Lingxuan stated boldly.
