Chapter 505 I’m shy
A huge and embarrassing incident had just happened in the Shen family, and the servants were all waiting for their master to punish the eldest lady.

Unexpectedly, the whole second day, the house was quiet and there was no movement.

However, they all received the news individually. If anyone asked about it, they would say that what the eldest lady said was all lies.

Now the servants didn't like the eldest lady who had made a mess in the house as soon as she came back, so naturally they quickly agreed and spared no effort to publicize it.

Any harsh things are all fake. Who doesn't know that the eldest lady has the best food in the yard and is treated better than the second lady. There is no such thing as the young master setting fire to her.

With someone deliberately adding fuel to the flames, this news became known to many people as the eldest daughter of the Shen family was resentful of her family because she had been left in the countryside for many years, and upon her return she slandered the Shen family's reputation in public.

The news was so complicated that for a while the people couldn't tell what was true and what was false, and there were many different opinions.

The Hou Mansion of Ding'an also quickly issued a statement, saying that the reason why the Hou Mansion broke off the engagement was because the prince of the Hou Mansion went to ask the Holy Cult for approval. God's will was that the prince of the Hou Mansion should marry late, and he was afraid of delaying the Shen Mansion, so he canceled the engagement.

Looking at it this way, the Hou Mansion took all the blame on himself.

However, in private, Mrs. Ding'an Hou complained to several handkerchief acquaintances, saying that when they decided to get married, they only talked about their son and Miss Shen's house, but did not say which lady it was. The elders and younger ones were arranged in order. It's Miss Shen's turn. Even if Shen's family doesn't do this, if Miss Shen's maternal grandfather, the Bai family, hears about it, how can they give up?
That's why I had no choice but to cancel the engagement.

The news quickly spread in the crowded Holy Capital City, and the excitement between Ding'an Hou Mansion and Shen Mansion became a topic of conversation among the people after dinner.

When Su Youyue heard about her grandfather Bai's family, she stared at her for a moment: "Bai's family?"

Zheying reported back: "This is the ancestral home of Miss Shen. It was once a prosperous merchant in the Holy Capital. At that time, Mr. Shen was still a scholar. Later, not long after Mr. Shen became an official, the Bai family's business suddenly went bad and plummeted. When Miss Shen's biological mother, Bai Shi, was kicked out of the Shen Mansion, the Bai family was no longer able to support her, and that same month, Mr. Shen married Miss Fang from a fifth-rank official family."

Su Youyue sarcastically said on her lips: "Mr. Shen is lucky enough to marry everyone."

Originally, this succession of high marriages was nothing, but the problem was that the timing of the incident in the Shen family and the timing of Fang's entry were so coincidental that it was really worth pondering.

Was Ms. Bai really kicked out of the house because she made a mistake?
Was it really a mistake, or was it designed?
After all, this matter was a long time ago, and the secret guards did not investigate it in depth.

But when he heard Su Youyue's sarcasm, Zheying cupped his hands and said, "Madam, I will ask the brothers to investigate the matter of Mrs. Shen back then."

Su Youyue nodded: "Check carefully, thank you for your hard work, brothers. After returning to Yanjing, I will reward the brothers properly."

Zheying quickly shook his head: "It is the duty of subordinates to serve the master."

"Okay, if you don't want the reward, don't let the other brothers do it. Besides, I still rely on you to pay for it. It's just a promise, so go ahead." Su Youyue said with a smile.

Zheying felt warm in his heart, no longer refused, he bowed his hands and went out.

Su Youyue saw that it was already bright, but Jin'er hadn't come yet, so she didn't urge her.

This girl, Jin'er, has never slept in for a few days since she was with him. When she rarely sleeps in, of course she will let it go.

It was getting brighter and brighter.

Jin'er sat in front of the stool, not daring to move, even breathing softly.

There was a slender hand in front of her, only one finger away from her face. Although it did not touch her face, Jin'er could feel the warmth of the hand and a cold morning dew breath.

"Zhejing...are you ready? Miss, I'm afraid she'll be impatient waiting for me."

Early in the morning, Brother Zhejing said that he would help her disguise herself. After explaining the reason and saying that the young lady had already agreed, Jin'er naturally agreed.

But when she really started to change her appearance and found out that she and Brother Zhejing were so close, her mind began to think uncontrollably.

Miss...what do you mean by what you said before?

Could it be that Brother Zhejing is interested in me?
No, no, no, how is this possible? He just regards himself as a friend, and only good friends will always share delicious food and fun.

The more Jin'er thought about it, the hotter her face got. She tried hard to control it, but she couldn't. Especially when Zhejing's fingertips occasionally brushed against her face, she felt like she was about to be boiled. Ripe. Fake, fake, it must be fake.

A handsome husband like Brother Zhejing should marry a gentle, beautiful and smart girl in the future, like Chunya, who is very smart, but also ugly and stupid. If the lady doesn't dislike it, , I couldn’t be a great maid.

But Brother Zhejing is handsome, knows a lot, and is ten thousand times better than me.

How could I be worthy of him?

Jin'er thought so and suddenly shook her head.

The hand that Zhejing was about to take away from her cheek accidentally touched her fleshy lips.

For a moment, both of them froze.

Jin'er came back to her senses, her eyes widening.

Did Brother Zhejing accidentally touch her mouth just now?
She tried to find something on Zhejing's face.

But the young man just froze and continued to disguise her as if nothing had happened.

Jin'er breathed a sigh of relief.

After I relaxed, I suddenly felt a little disappointed.

Sure enough, how could Brother Zhejing be interested in me? He must be overthinking it.

Jin'er was about to relax, and when she raised her eyes again, she suddenly saw that Zhejing's face was as usual, seemingly emotionless, but her ears were as red as cooked shrimps...

Jin'er opened her mouth: "Brother Zhejing, are you shy?"

"..."

The movement of Zhejing's hand paused.

Jin'er suddenly regretted why he suddenly asked what was in his heart. How could this be possible? Brother Zhejing was a well-trained secret guard, how could he be shy.

And he definitely has no interest in himself.

It's over, it's over, she said it now, how can she talk to him when they meet again in the future? She doesn't want to lose this good friend at all.

Jin'er's mind turned to mush again, but when she was confused, she suddenly saw Zhejing nodding.

"what?"

Jin'er was stunned again.

Brother Zhejing, why is he nodding?
What did she ask just now?

Seeing Jin'er's blank expression, a trace of helplessness flashed in Zhejing's eyes: "Yeah, I'm shy."

Jin'er blinked.

Did she hear it wrong?
"You heard and read it right, Jin'er."

The folding mirror stopped its movements, raised its drooping eyelashes, and Jin'er's figure was reflected in her pupils.

"I'm shy."
