Chapter 35 The Engagement (Part [-])
"Personal reason? Is it a physical reason?" He Ling who was beside Bai Ying'an asked curiously on purpose, "I heard that Young Master Nangong was so ill that he could hardly even get out of bed. Is it true?"

"Of course not, his body is fine." Bai Muqing frowned slightly, staring at her.

"What's the reason? Could it be that you dare not show up because you are ugly? Actually, it doesn't matter. Everyone knows that Young Master Nangong is not in good health, and his appearance is not that good. cover up."

"Ling." Bai Ying'an glanced at Bai Muqing, who had a bad complexion, and pulled He Ling's skirt with her hand and said in a reproachful way: "It's normal for brother-in-law not to want to expose herself in front of everyone, after all, people have self-esteem."

"Actually, it's nothing to be ugly, as long as you have money, everyone agrees?" He Ling said to everyone, not waiting for everyone's response, and then asked: "By the way, cousin, the Nangong family is so rich, we must give it to everyone." Is it an engagement gift for you? Let me tell you what it is, so as to satisfy everyone's curiosity."

Bai Muqing's fingers gradually clenched. When she first came in, Bai Ying'an said that it didn't matter if she had a gift or not. She thought it was over like this, but she didn't expect...

What should I do, if the old lady finds out that she didn't deliver the gift and that she lost face to the Nangong family in front of so many people, she will definitely be so angry that she will be strangled to death.

Bai Ying'an continued to play the role of a considerate and considerate girl, with a gentle smile on her face: "Sisters are together, but giving gifts seems emotional, so... it doesn't matter whether you have a gift or not, the important thing is that my sister can come to my engagement ceremony, everyone Say yes?"

Someone in the crowd nodded in agreement.

"Isn't it? Then nothing was given?" He Ling continued to scream.

Bai Muqing took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said to Bai Ying'an and Lin Annan with a half-smile: "Everyone is waiting for you to dance."

Bai Ying'an nodded, and said to everyone with some disappointment: "I originally wanted my sister and Master Nangong to dance for everyone, but unfortunately Master Nangong was too thin-skinned to show up, so Annan and I had to dance for everyone."

The beautiful music like flowing water slowly sounded, Bai Muqing breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally coming to an end!

Under the strange eyes of everyone, she felt that her footsteps were too heavy to lift, and Bai Yingan's deliberately lowered voice was next to her ear: "How is it? It feels good to be despised by others, doesn't it?"

Bai Muqing clenched her fists and was about to get out of the crowd when a familiar and flat voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Who said I dare not show up?"

The voice was neither loud nor low, but it was just enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Everyone's eyes swept towards the entrance in unison. Outside the crowd, Nan Gongchen in a formal dress was handsome and noble, with a faint smile.

Bai Ying'an and Lin Annan looked at each other, and He Ling who was on the side whispered joyfully, "It's him? Why is he here?"

And when Bai Muqing saw him, her first reaction was to hit the wall. She knew that he wanted to repay the favor, but before repaying the favor, couldn't she first study the occasion and what happened?
He didn't want to pretend to be Nangong Chen to rescue her, did he?This intention is good, but doesn't he remember?It wasn't long ago that he pretended to be her lover, okay?

"Why are you here?" Bai Ying'an frowned while looking at him.Although she has a good impression of him, after all, he belongs to Bai Muqing, so right now she can only have a hostile relationship with him.
