d the servant to move her luggage over.She just didn't understand. Why would he, the young master, want her to move here to this desolate side courtyard when she was already living comfortably in Mei...After Cold Yanchen walked over, Madam Cold immediately instructed: "Xiao Chen, you take Xiao Xi to the hotel to eat."

"Yes, Grandma," Leng Yanchen nodded, his tone more like he was just responding to appease his elders.

And inside the car, Song Erqin was beaming as she said, “Xiaoxi, then you and Xiaocheng go have a candlelit dinner together! Mom’s going home first.”

"Mrs. Song, let's have dinner together another day," Lady Leng said politely.

Song Erqin didn't dwell on it any further, and politely replied with a smile, "Alright."

Song Erqin was then escorted away by the driver first.

Lady Leng no longer bothered the two young people and, with the help of a maid, entered the large estate.

At this moment, Leng Yanchen's driver, Luo Lei, drove the car over.

Leng Yanchen proactively opened the car door for Song Yuxiao.

Song Yunxi sat down first, and then Leng Yanchen followed suit.

"Go..."

"Take me home!" Song Yunxi coldly interrupted Leng Yanchen's words, "I didn't refuse you just now, I just didn't want to make your grandmother lose face."

There was another layer of meaning to her words, namely that she was repaying Li with kindness after he had wronged her. Unlike how coldly and harshly he treated her in the hall just now.

Leng Yanchen could naturally hear her voiceover. He smiled faintly: "Miss Song, it's not too late to have dinner together before going back."

“Alright, you don’t need to be so attentive to me. Besides, your initiative isn’t out of your own free will. I know you’re filial and your grandfather is getting older, you don't want to upset him and make yourself unhappy, I understand.” Song Yunxi said directly.

Cold Yanchen didn't try to keep her any longer, but instead asked indifferently, "Where does Miss Song live"

"You..." Song Yunxi's heart suddenly felt inexplicably angry, and she couldn't help but hesitate.

In this situation, shouldn't this man continue to try and keep her

A man, how could he not know that women all like "saying one thing but meaning another"

Song Yunxi frowned in annoyance.

The driver, Luo Lei, saw the awkward situation through his rearview mirror and couldn't help but chuckle, "Young Master, you really don't understand women! Women always say the opposite of what they mean! Well, I'll take you to 'Honey Words Western Restaurant'. This lady will surely like it."

Cold Yanchen remained silent, which was considered acquiescence.

Song Yunxi didn't object and subconsciously glanced at Leng Yanchen.

He rested his hand on the door handle, propping up his cheek as he glanced out the car window.

He was wearing a suit and tie. Although he didn't have the same dashing air as when he wore his military uniform, he still had a handsome and refined aura.

Actually, Leng Yanchen gave her a feeling of faint detachment, making it difficult to fathom his thoughts.

At this moment, Song Yunxi was thinking, if she hadn't rejected him back then, maybe their relationship wouldn't be so stiff now.

The driver, Luo Lei, seeing that the two of them were silent, grinned and started the car, taking them to "Honey Words Western Restaurant."

The car was very quiet. Without Leng Yanchen's order, Luo Lei didn't dare to put on music.

Song Yunshi pursed her lips and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't you apologize to me first"

"I'm not in the habit of apologizing to others." Leng Yanchen didn't look at Song Yunxi, but turned his head to look out the car window, his voice still aloof, with a hint of coldness.

Song Yunxi was startled, looking at Leng Yanchen with some difficulty accepting, sneering: "Oh, is that so"

Then, the two fell silent.

Upon arriving at the Honeyed Words Western Restaurant, Leng Yanchen did not treat Song Yunxi poorly. Their table was the most upscale, and a violinist even played a solo for them.

Leng Yanchen, perhaps because he had been in the army before, sat upright with an imposing and masculine air in every movement.

But throughout the entire meal, apart from a few words exchanged when ordering, the two remained in silence.

Even the violinist playing for them felt the awkward atmosphere, leaving him unsure what to play next after finishing a piece. He wasn't sure what music would be appropriate for this "couple."

Song Yunxi didn't bring up the development of their marriage. She didn't want to take the initiative to discuss it, nor would she try to get closer to this man.

And Leng Yanchen didn't mention it either, as if the two of them were just going through the motions tonight, fulfilling their elders’ expectations.

At the Cold Family Manor, not long after Leng Yanchen left, a maid walked in carrying a neatly folded set of clothes.

The maid presented the clothes with both hands to Qin Nianxia, then curtsied and retreated from the room.

Qin Nianxia hastily closed the door, changed her clothes, and shoved Yan Luowei's princess dress into the crimson backpack.

To avoid getting lost, Qin Nianxia found the maid who had just given her clothes and asked the maid to take her to the back door to leave.

Although the maid didn't quite understand Qin Nianxia's behavior, she heard that she was the fiancée brought back by the young master, so she respectfully did as she was told.

Fortunately, those plainclothes guards from the Yan Kingdom didn't follow us to guard the back door.

After successfully leaving the Cold Family Manor, Qin Nianxia hailed a taxi on the roadside and returned to her residence.

I wonder if Her Highness arrived safely at her destination. proud of" He Mingxu narrowed his eyes and looked at Leng Yechen with a cold snort.Two people stood face to face, their noses nearly touching.In the cold night, Chen Gou smiled: "My beloved Mo'er, bot...
