Chen Xinyi was moved after hearing that. However, she bit her lower lips and didn’t dare to take any further action. “The daughters of Chen Family have never become a concubine before.”
“How could they be compared to you. Everyone will choose the biological daughter of the aristocrat of Xi Yuan Nation. The two of them are the ones who will become concubines.”
Chen Xinyi just bit her lips and looked at Feng Tianlan who was standing to the side. Under the firelight, the coldness on her handsome face seemed to be decreasing as her face got warmer.
“I have done all I can to persuade you. Think about it. We are entering the city tomorrow. After they complete their mission, they will leave Lin’an City. Therefore, you will lose your chance after tonight.” Chen Xinlu looked at her with disdain and stopped trying to persuade her.
It would be too much if she were to keep persuading her. Therefore, she decided to stop here. She would figure out the rest by herself.
Although she felt that Master Shen was better looking than Brother Qing, his power and status were beneath Brother Qing’s. Therefore, if she was given a choice, she would definitely choose Brother Qing. How could she choose an amorous man who was a nomad in a mercenary regiment?
Only her foolish sister would reject Brother Qing and like an amorous nomad who had nothing but looks.
Therefore, she didn’t mind helping her sister. That way, she could finally get married to Brother Qing and become his principal wife.
Mei’er, who was at Feng Tianlan’s side had figured out Chen Xinyi’s thoughts since a long time ago. When she saw the two sisters of Chen Family talking while looking at their direction, she said, “Xiao Lan’er, you really are popular among both men and women. If you don’t tell the eldest daughter of Chen Family how you feel, she might become an unsatisfied, lonely woman soon.”
“You are thinking too much.” Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked at Chen Xinyi, who was coincidentally looking at her as well. She then nodded coldly.
Although Chen Xinyi was Chen Xinlu’s elder sister, the two of them had completely different personalities. Chen Xinyi was more innocent and purer. She wasn’t full of scheme. Therefore, she had a rather good impression of her.
Mei’er covered her mouth and giggled. “You must trust my insight. Very soon, she will be unable to hold it anymore and confess her feelings to you.”
She was great at judging people. She could tell whether a person liked another with just one look. A person’s eyes would never lie.
If she was this rational before, she might not have turned out who she was today.
However, there were no ‘ifs’ in this world.
At first, Chen Xinyi was hesitating. She felt that it would be too frivolous for a lady to make the move. Besides, her reputation would be ruined. However, when her eyes met Master Shen’s as he nodded to her gently, her heart gone wild. She couldn’t stay still anymore.
His gaze and his gentle nod gave her courage.
If she were to be called frivolous, so be it. It was better than missing this opportunity.
However, Mei’er and Xiao Xiao were always by Master Shen’s side, so she couldn’t find a good time to do it. Therefore, she kept waiting. She longer she waited, the more anxious she was getting. She was worried she might miss this final opportunity.
Feng Tianlan woke up at the break of dawn. She had the habit of meditating after waking up early. Therefore, she got up in between Mei’er and Xiao Xiao carefully and went to the river side to freshen up. She then meditated there for an hour.
Chen Xinyi was half asleep. Her eyes that were half open were almost shut completely. However, when she saw a white figure getting up and leaving alone, she rubbed her eyes immediately so that she could have a clearer look. She then followed right after that figure.
As her movements were big, Chen Xinlu who was sleeping beside her was woken up by her. She curled her lips when she saw her following after that figure. She then went back to sleep.
It’s better for her elder sister to get married to someone else. It will be better than them having to fight each other over the same husband in the future.
Feng Tianlan squatted by the river as she washed her face. When she heard footsteps behind her, she stood up and turned around immediately. It was Chen Xinyi. She then nodded and said coldly, “Miss Chen.”
