Chapter 559 He Regretted It

Pei Yin remembered the emperor's words before.

He couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Princess, did the emperor talk to you about anything?"

"No." Shen Ningning quickly denied it.

Pei Yin tried to find some flaws in her face, but the girl's eyes were dark and bright.

She looked at Lu Shaoyuan who was running towards her in the distance.

Shen Ningning's voice was very light: "Maybe my brother and I have had many opportunities to get along since we were young, so everyone thinks we should be together."

"But no matter what you think, the person I like is Lu Shaoyuan, and I married him voluntarily, and no one forced me."

"Master Pei, excuse me."

After saying that, Shen Ningning took the initiative to meet Lu Shaoyuan. The two of them smiled and talked in the sunlight, and they really looked like a perfect couple.

After saying that to Pei Yin, Shen Ningning decided to buy the house.

She took out the silver note she had prepared and planned to pay the deposit first, but was pushed back by Lu Shaoyuan.

"I'm here, and I still ask you to pay. Isn't that too embarrassing?" Lu Shaoyuan said, and took out a thick stack of silver bills from his sleeve.

The broker stared at him.

Lu Shaoyuan said generously: "Here is another ingot of gold, which is a reward for running errands for you today. You are really lucky. Our princess likes this house, otherwise I wouldn't pay so happily."

The broker smiled so hard that his eyes were almost invisible. He held up the silver bills with both hands to thank him, took it, and counted it on the spot.

Shen Ningning secretly tugged at Lu Shaoyuan's sleeve: "Why did you give him so much at once?"

Lu Shaoyuan's sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, smiled handsomely: "This is nothing, I thought you would not like this house, but I didn't expect you to like it at first sight, nothing is more important than this."

Shen Ningning pursed her lips: "Then wait until the end of the year, I will give you 20% more of the dividends from the shop, just as I invested money in this house."

What she thought was that they would divorce in three years, and she could let Lu Shaoyuan sell the house. After all, the location of this house is very good, and it will not lose money if it is sold in three years.

Lu Shaoyuan paused his smile, of course he didn't want Shen Ningning to be so clear with him.

But, he planned to follow her wishes and not make it difficult for her.

"I'll listen to you. Whatever you say is what I will do."

Lu Shaoyuan even whispered: "Actually, you were right in teaching me a lesson. I won't spend money so lavishly next time. Now I'm in charge of half of the family business, so I can't be too extravagant."

"Since we have to live in the future, I have to behave myself. But this time, please allow me to make an exception again."

As he said this, he took out a gold ingot from his sleeve and gave it to the broker.

Lu Shaoyuan said: "Run errands quickly. Go to the teahouse in the city and book a private room with the best view. I want to invite the princess, Miss Qi and Lord Pei to have tea."

Then he added: "Remember to order the plate of osmanthus milk cake in the teahouse in advance. The princess loves it."

The broker was busy.

Lu Shaoyuan turned his head, bent down and whispered to Shen Ningning: "This is the last waste. The main reason is that I have brought you here for such a long time. You must be thirsty, right?"

"I consider you, oh, and Miss Qi and Lord Pei for their hard work, so I will treat you to some herbal tea."

Shen Ningning chuckled helplessly: "Okay, then it won't happen again."

Lu Shaoyuan nodded immediately: "It's a deal!"

The two interacted, and Qi Xiuwei watched with a smile on his face.

Pei Yin looked at him in silence for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed: "There are still things to do in the palace, I have to take my leave first. Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Lu, I will definitely treat you to a meal another day."

After that, he left.

As soon as Pei Yin left, Lu Shaoyuan said: "Qi Xiuwei, you haven't forgiven him yet?"

Shen Ningning gently poked his stomach with her arm to tell him not to talk nonsense.

Qi Xiuwei smiled with relief: "What forgiveness? It's all in the past."

Lu Shaoyuan covered his stomach and pretended to be in pain, but there was still a happy smile on his lips.

Shen Ningning became closer to him and was willing to beat him up with her own hands!

Lu Shaoyuan was in a good mood, so he said directly: "In fact, I think Pei Yin wanted to reconcile with you. He didn't need to come in person today. He just told the broker if he had any instructions, but he still came by himself."

Shen Ningning glanced at him: "What does that prove?"

"It proves that he wants to find an opportunity to contact her!" Lu Shaoyuan crossed his arms and looked confident: "Men understand men's minds best. If you like someone, you will create countless opportunities to get close to her."

Qi Xiuwei smiled but said nothing, and Shen Ningning took her arm.

"Xiaowei, let's go to the teahouse for tea, don't listen to his fallacies."

Lu Shaoyuan caught up: "I'm not talking nonsense, really, I used to be..."

Shen Ningning looked at him, and Lu Shaoyuan was timid for a moment and didn't dare to say anything.

He coughed lightly: "What do you want to eat later? I'll go buy it."

Qi Xiuwei laughed: "You two, it's really like that."

Shen Ningning stamped her feet: "Xiaowei, don't follow him in talking nonsense!"

"I didn't." Qi Xiuwei smiled gently.

Shen Ningning is her best friend. At first, when she heard that Shen Ningning was going to marry Lu Shaoyuan, Qi Xiuwei's thoughts were the same as others, thinking that Shen Ningning had something to hide.

However, seeing Lu Shaoyuan's thoughtfulness and attentiveness to her these days, Qi Xiuwei began to believe it.

Shen Ningning chose someone who loves her, not someone she loves. Perhaps this is the key to a happy life.

Over there, Pei Yin returned to the palace and went directly to the study room of Zichen Palace to report to Mo Lingwei what had just happened.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince was wrong. The princess did not reject this house, but expressed her love for it. So Mr. Lu did not say anything more and directly paid the deposit. I believe that construction will start soon to prepare for the wedding house for the two."

Mo Lingwei was reviewing memorials. Hearing this, the Taihu pen in his hand broke in the middle.

He raised his head, his thin eyes were sharp and cold: "She really didn't reject it?"

Pei Yin nodded.

Mo Lingwei threw down the broken pen and pinched his eyebrows in a deep breath.

Shen Ningning is very good. She actually wants to build a new house with others.

She bought Pei Yin's house. Isn't she worried about how he will react after knowing it?

Or did she not care what he thought at all? Was she now so overwhelmed by the joy of the upcoming engagement that she had no time to think about what he should do?

Mo Lingwei stood up, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and calmed down.

"She is so heartless." He whispered, with a hint of gnashing his teeth.

Pei Yin couldn't comment, so he said nothing.

Theoretically speaking, he was not Mo Lingwei's confidant. His superior was Lu Fu. Instead, he should be on Lu Shaoyuan's side.

However, Mo Lingwei was the monarch he would follow in the future, so he did whatever Mo Lingwei asked him to do.

As for other things, they were not within his scope of obedience, so he naturally didn't comment much.

Suddenly, Mo Lingwei turned around: "Go tell them that you won't sell this house."

Pei Yin was startled: "But they have already signed a contract with the broker."

"How much silver do you want to pay? I will give it to you. You can't sell the house to them."

He couldn't accept that Shen Ningning was planning with others how to decorate the house after the marriage.

Just thinking about it, Mo Lingwei felt like he was going crazy.
