Chapter 809 - 173: I Am Not a Coward
Pei Qian ran out from the back gate, sprinted out of the town in one go, glanced at the workshop, then looked at the farm below Taiping Mountain, and headed straight there.
Fang Liuming chased after her, watching her run away into the distance towards Taiping Mountain, feeling both distressed and thrilled. Qinqin cared so much, finally, she held him in her heart too! With this thought, his spirits lifted. Now, all he needed to do was to ask for her hand in marriage, settle the engagement, and everything would be set! He had no intentions towards Shen Rou, and he would send her back to the Shen family, ensuring nothing hindered his marriage to her!
Returning home, Fang Liuming told the guards and maids in his house about Pei Qian’s destination, instructing them to pursue her. He, on the other hand, went to ask Pei Qin for her hand in marriage.
Seeing his determination and the ease with which he entered, Shen Rou’s anxiety spread all over her body in an instant, and she stepped forward quickly, "Brother Liuming! I have already met with Madam Yuanyang, and I will go back with you!"
Fang Liuming’s expression turned cold, "Ms. Shen, if you truly wish to acknowledge me as a brother, my parents wouldn’t mind having another adopted daughter!"
Shen Rou’s heart sank, tears dripping down, "What is wrong with me that you are so ruthless towards me?"
Fang Liuming’s gaze landed on her face, "Your virtues are for someone who cherishes them to discover. As for me, I have never been that person. I love someone else, and I intend to marry only her in this lifetime!"
Shen Rou swayed unsteadily, her face turning deathly pale.
