Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 228: The Delicate Cousin Girl vs. the Upright and Brave Cousin (22)

Shen Shuyi pursed her lips. What was he doing here at this time?
"Let him in."

She changed into peach-pink clothes and went to the reception hall to meet people.

Zhou Qian obtained the approval of the owner of the Shen Mansion, otherwise even the news could not be delivered. Presumably, Zhou Shu and Shen Shan's attitudes have softened a lot.

The most important thing at the moment is to dispel those rumors that are bad for my daughter. If Zhou Qian can marry her in a grand manner, the rumors will be self-defeating.

Shen Shuyi looked at the man who came over in a dusty state and still in military uniform, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous as she saw his increasingly stern face.

"Why did General Zhou come to see me?"

"Call me cousin."

"Humph!"

Zhou Qian saw the little girl's proud face, which showed no sign of being disobedient after being kissed last time, and he suddenly felt itchy.

"Why is my cousin mad at me again?"

Shen Shuyi turned around and sat down. "Before, I was ignorant of the world and fell in love with General Zhou. I let it go because the general was ruthless to me. Why are you coming to me now?"

"People outside are gossiping about me. I have already discussed with my parents and decided to return to Yuhang as soon as possible."

Zhou Qian stood up suddenly. "I have found out that it was Lou Caiya and the princess who did it. I will report to the emperor. I want justice for my cousin! Even a princess cannot ignore the law!"

Shen Shuyi quickly ran over and grabbed him, "Do you want to make this known to everyone?"

"I just want my cousin to stay in Luoyang and live a good life." Zhou Qian said hurriedly.

Shen Shuyi bit her lip and said, "She is a royal relative, and I am just the daughter of a merchant."

Zhou Qian suddenly smiled, "You didn't think like that at the Peony Flower Fair."

"I am trying to survive by cutting off my arm!"

"If you say that again, I will really ignore you!"

Zhou Qian held her hand in return, "Don't be afraid, cousin. I have many military merits. It is not difficult to use them to get the emperor to punish the princess. Even if I fail to punish the princess severely, I can't let Lou Caiya go."

"Don't go!" Shen Shuyi was stubborn. She would not let Lou Caiya and Chu Huiji go, but not now and not in this way.

Zhou Qian's arms were bulging with veins, and he hated everyone who slandered his cousin.

"Yier, I don't want you to be criticized. If I don't go to the emperor, will you marry me? I want to protect you like a big tree that blocks out the sun and sky. I don't want you to encounter any wind or rain."

Shen Shuyi wanted to shake off his hand but couldn't, "I already said I don't like you anymore!"

"I know." Zhou Qian hugged her, "Cousin Shuyi, listen to me."

"You may not like me, but I want to protect you."

"I don't think anyone is better suited than me to help you dispel these rumors. Could it be that cousin Shuyi hates me so much that she doesn't even want to give me a false reputation?"

Shen Shuyi stopped struggling, she looked up at him with red eyes, "When did I say I hated you?"

"Then are you willing to marry me? You can be my wife on paper. If you don't like me touching you, I will never offend you in the slightest!" Zhou Qian's eyes were firm.

Shen Shuyi was stunned.

Zhou Qian continued in a firm tone, "When you and I get married, I will teach all those who bully you a lesson for you. Even if Zhou Wenjing dares to offend you, I will not be polite."

"I will treat my cousin wholeheartedly. I will never take a concubine or have a mistress in my life, and I will not have any involvement with other women!"

"Be my general's wife and let me support my cousin, okay?"

This was the best solution Zhou Qian could think of at the moment. He was not trying to take advantage of his cousin. He also added one more thing.

"After getting married, I will not cross the line."

Shen Shuyi listened to him speaking so seriously, and seeing his red ears and excited face, the teasing thoughts in her heart began to stir.

She coughed lightly, "What do you mean by not crossing the line?"

Zhou Qian felt his ears getting even hotter. "Even if I don't get your permission, I will never do anything beyond the rules."

Shen Shuyi nudged him with her elbow, "So what are you doing now?"

Zhou Qian quickly put down his hand, "Cousin, did you agree to my proposal?"

"Don't you feel wronged by doing this?" Shen Shuyi clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand.

She didn't believe that Zhou Qian could become a monk after getting married. The last time he kissed her, it felt like being pounced on by a wolf.
If she flirts with him a few more times, she will have a baby soon.
"It is my honor to be able to marry my cousin Shuyi. How can I say it is a grievance?" Zhou Qian vowed.

Shen Shuyi held the handkerchief and lowered her eyes, "Everyone knows that you and I are cousins, and I was once engaged to Zhou Xuanmin. Once the news of our marriage spreads, you will definitely be talked about."

"I don't mind. I just don't have to leave this house, or go back to Yuhang. But my cousin has an official position, so he has to deal with other people on a daily basis."

She raised her eyes and said, "My eldest cousin is an upright and brave hero. I am afraid that you will be implicated by my reputation."

Zhou Qian felt so soft-hearted when he heard this. His cousin was still thinking about him at this moment, which showed that she still had him in her heart.

I feel so happy in my heart that I would go through fire and water for her!

Zhou Qian patted his chest and said, "I, Zhou Yanzhao, am not ashamed of the heavens and I am not ashamed of people. How could I be afraid of the words of the villains? I am only afraid that I cannot protect the people I want to protect."

Shen Shuyi burst out laughing, "Second aunt said you were not good at studying, but you are quite good at quoting classics."

When Zhou Qian saw her bright smile, his Adam's apple rolled.

"I just don't want to take the imperial examinations. My family has been a family of generals for generations. I have been influenced by my grandfather since I was a child. Naturally, I want to hold a sword and defend my country on horseback."

"I'll ask my grandmother to come over tomorrow to propose marriage, what do you think?"

Shen Shuyi seemed to be burned by his burning gaze, "My cousin just got married, isn't it too fast for us? Besides, the princess and Zhou Xuanmin will be getting married soon."

"Cousin, I want to settle down earlier. As the elder brother, what's wrong with me getting married first? Do I have to give in to her just because she is a princess?" Zhou Qian looked at her with deep eyes.

Shen Shuyi's heart was pounding. Fortunately, she didn't tell her mother so firmly. Now it was not difficult to change her mind and marry Zhou Qian.
"Cousin, I'm going back first." Zhou Qian looked at her.

Shen Shuyi raised his chin slightly, "Then you go first."

"Yier." Zhou Qian took out the sandalwood box that he had kept for a long time from his arms. He grabbed Shen Shuyi's hand and handed the box to her, "This is for you."

Shen Shuyi opened it and took a look. "Jade hairpin?"

"It's in the shape of a peony."

"I, I carved it myself, so the workmanship may be a little clumsy, I hope my cousin won't mind."

Shen Shuyi took the jade hairpin in her hand and rubbed it a few times. It was warm and moist. She suppressed the smile that was about to appear at the corner of her lips and turned away reservedly.

"I'll take it!"

"Just consider it as an apology from the Peony Flower Festival."

Seeing her like this, Zhou Qian was even more reluctant to leave. He couldn't help but reach out and stroke her long hair, his voice full of affection.

"Wait until I come to marry you."
