Chapter 1565: 1565 She doesn’t want you anymore

It turned out that the sound of the zither was played for Chuan’er to hear.

The husband and wife thought this at the same time, and Xiao Chonghuan couldn’t help praising, "Such sublime zither music is nothing less than heavenly, Qianru truly plays excellently."

"Master Xiao flatters me too much," Gongsun Qianru stood up and bowed gracefully, "Qianru pays her respects to Master Xiao."

"Good, good, virtuous and polite, with both talent and beauty, indeed worthy of being the thousand gold of the Gongsun family," Xiao Chonghuan said, very satisfied.

Shen Yun also smiled, "With your talent, Qianru, it’s only a matter of time before Yuchuan falls for you. Su Qingyue, that village woman, probably hasn’t even touched a zither."

"Qianru merely plays the zither to pass the leisure time, I did not expect Master and Lady Xiao to come."

Shen Yun said, "Master and I were just on our way to see Yuchuan, and we came in when we heard the zither. Qianru, would you like to accompany us to the neighboring garden to see Chuan’er?"

Gongsun Qianru lowered her gaze, "I think I better not. It would save Brother Chuan the displeasure."

"That child Chuan’er probably just spoke in anger," Xiao Chonghuan consoled, "You are so wonderful, he will come around soon. Even the marriage between you two was something he actively requested."

Qianru knew from Xiao Yuchuan’s own lips that he was unwilling to marry her, yet she didn’t expose the truth, "Master Xiao, you should see Brother Chuan sooner rather than later, don’t delay."

Xiao Chonghuan nodded and took a few steps, then stopped and added, "Qianru, the Xiao family will not let you down."

Qianru understood his meaning, even if Xiao Yuchuan did not treat her well, the family head wouldn’t just stand by and would compensate her, "Thank you, Master Xiao."

Once the Xiao couple had left, Xia He commented, "Miss, I didn’t expect that your zither playing didn’t attract Xiao Yuchuan, but rather brought the Xiao couple over."

"Didn’t you just find out that Xiao Yuchuan’s door was open? He’s not deaf, of course he would hear me play the zither." Gongsun Qianru was confident in her musical skill.

"As long as your talents become known to young Master Xiao, he will soon be charmed by you," flattered Xia He.

"Later on, let’s buy some pen and ink so I can let Xiao Yuchuan see my writing; also, get a kite," Qianru planned in her mind, "If he doesn’t come to the West Garden, I can always go to the South Garden to retrieve a kite..."

"Yes."

In the side room of the South Garden, Xiao Chonghuan’s deep voice, authoritative and masculine, began, "Chuan’er, are you feeling any better?"

"Where’s the antidote?" Xiao Yuchuan asked straightaway.

"Chuan’er, your father wants what’s best for you. Did you hear the zither music just now?" Xiao Chonghuan didn’t hesitate to praise, "That was Miss Gongsun playing, with her talent and beauty, plus the Gongsun family’s background, only she is a suitable match for you."

"Don’t beat around the bush."

"Then I’ll speak plainly to you, you’ll have to stay in this bed until you’ve officially married Gongsun Qianru. That will stop you from running off halfway through."

Xiao Yuchuan’s fists clenched into fists under the quilt, the anger swelling in his chest unvented.

Shen Yun’s voice was very soft, "Chuan’er, as parents, which of us doesn’t love their child? Moreover, you are our only son. We wouldn’t harm you, why won’t you just listen?"

"Your father knows you have Su Qingyue in your heart, but as the legitimate son of a first-class family, how can you be fettered by a private affair?" Xiao Chonghuan also tried to persuade, "Moreover, I was originally planning to help you cancel the marriage proposal with the Gongsun family, but it was Su Qingyue who publicly had Xiao Qinghe bring the divorce papers to you in front of everyone. She doesn’t cherish you, she doesn’t want you anymore, do you still need to keep thinking about her?"
