“You deliberately humiliated me!”
He deliberately stabbed her with this fact!
Tang Yin’s eyes were red, and tears almost fell as she glared at Nalan Jing fiercely.
Nalan Jing remained calm. He held Tang Yin’s hand and looked at her gently. “I just do not want you to call me cousin…”
“You look down on me!” Tang Yin huffed and puffed.
“No… You can call me by my name, or ‘Brother Nalan’ as you always did, but don’t take me as your cousin…”
“Why?” Tang Yin froze and looked at Nalan Jing with doubt.
Nalan Jing paused, finding it somewhat hard to explain.
“Fine… If you don’t want me to take you as my cousin, then I won’t. But you will always be my Brother Nalan.” Tang Yin raised her gaze and smiled brightly.
In that instant, Nalan Jing’s heart was warmed, and he could not help but smile back at her.
“Good…”
***
Tang Yin was always in Nalan Jing’s room in these few days, accompanying him, never stepping out, even the meals were specially brought to the room.
The moment she left the room, she saw the red lanterns hanging high everywhere.
The housekeeper was directing the servants to decorate the entire General Manor with red, making her wonder what was going on.
“Is someone getting married?” Tang Yin asked in confusion. “Feng Lianqing?”
‘The only marriageable person in General Manor is Feng Lianqing. It can’t be Xia Xia and Xiao Dai’er, right?’
When Tang Yin was looking around, she happened to see Helian Yue running from the front.
When they first met, Tang Yin and Helian Yue were still enemies. But as time passed, perhaps with the common love rival, Nan Xian, their relationship became closer.
Helian Yue rushed toward Tang Yin in panic. “Tang Yin, I heard you…”
“Well!”
Before Helian Yue’s words fell, a hand reached out from the side and tightly covered her mouth.
Her face turned cold when she turned and saw the man who had covered her mouth.
Tang Yin was dumbfounded, looking at the man who had pulled Helian Yue to his side. “Helian Yue, you don’t need to explain. I understand now…”
Helian Yue’s eyes widened.
‘Tang Yin is getting married? What about me? I’m alone now, and won’t it be harder to get close to Feng Ruqing?’
“Helian Yue, I wish you happiness.”
Tang Yin sighed and walked away, never giving Helian Yue another chance to speak.
Even if she was selfish, she could not hinder Helian Yue from marrying someone, even though Feng Lianqing was not a good man… But if this was Helian Yue’s choice, then she could only wish them happiness.
After seeing that Tang Yin had left, Feng Lianqing breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Helian Yue. “Maiden Helian, we have known each other since childhood. Do you really want to ignore me for the rest of your life…”
Helian Yue turned her back on Feng Lianqing and sneered. “When you choose to trust Feng Lianyi back then, why did you not think that we had known each other since childhood?”
