Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 356 - 355: It’s Sun Xuan

The Sixth Imperial Sister, Ninth Imperial Sister, and Tenth Imperial Sister are not much older than her, and their marriages were arranged early.

At fifteen, when they came of age, they would have to marry out of the palace.

Although the sisters often bullied Qinglian, thinking about them getting married made her feel a sadness from within her heart.

And what right did they have to resist?

Ye Zhi suddenly had a spark of inspiration and clapped her hands, saying, "No, I have to secretly go to the main hall to have a look. If the timing isn’t right, I’ll reveal myself. I can’t let my lifelong matter be decided so hastily."

Having made up her mind, she started rummaging through the boxes and cupboards looking for a veil to cover her face. Ultimately, she couldn’t find one and gave up.

Huanhuan got up, also preparing to follow her.

Qinglian’s gaze was clear, her expression calm: "I will go too," she said as if it were a matter of course.

The other few didn’t say anything, but their faces said it all: "I want to go," the three words written all over them.

Ah Zhi, with her outgoing personality and straightforward nature, was as lovely as a porcelain doll. Whether big or small, she had helped each of them in some way, so her lifelong matter naturally garnered much attention.

Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang~

There’s strength in numbers, so Ye Zhi didn’t stop them. After tidying up, they grandly left Qingyi Garden.

Then, led by Ah Tao, they sneaked over to the lattice window of the main hall to eavesdrop...

Ye Zhi gave a thumbs up to her first-class maid.

Ah Tao seemed a bit embarrassed and gave a silent grin.

The lattice window was open, making it easier for them to eavesdrop.

The voice of the Ye Family’s inquiry came through: "There is an age difference between you. When you seek marriage, do your family’s elders have any objections?"

"This matter is already known to the elders of my family, and there are no objections."

It was a bright and clear male voice with a considerable magnetic quality.

Ye Lin snorted: "Sun Xuan, you really can’t be seen through. But I can tell you, she has no interest in you. You’re probably here for nothing. Why didn’t you ask me first? She already has someone in her heart."

The Ye Family scolded her son: "Ye Lin, you’re everywhere. Keep your mouth shut."

Sun Xuan paused for a moment, then said, "Perhaps I can talk to the fair lady and see if she might change her mind."

The conversation inside the hall continued without pause.

Outside the wall of the main hall, in the corner, under the lattice window, Ye Zhi’s face was full of surprise, and the others also felt astonished.

The suitor was actually Ye Lin’s friend, Sun Xuan.

They all had an impression of Sun Xuan since he had visited the residence several times—elegant, handsome, and gentle. Hmm, not bad.

Except, he was six years older than Ye Zhi.

No wonder the Ye Family mentioned the age difference earlier; this must be what they meant.

The few people under the lattice window hesitated, wondering whether to persuade Ah Zhi to agree after all?

A sharp voice interrupted everyone’s thoughts.

"Lu He won’t marry you, you better give up on that,"

Oh, it was the roar of Manager Zhao Jun.

...

What?? Lu He??

Ye Zhi and the others looked at the person in the corner with a face of surprise.

Lu He shrugged and spread her hands, indicating she wasn’t aware of it. She had seen Sun Xuan a few times, and the way he looked at her was pure, with no other intentions. For him to come forward to propose, there must be something amiss.

She gestured for silence, suggesting everyone listen further.

In the main hall.

The Ye Family sat in the main seat, the corners of their lips slightly curved as they elegantly picked up a blue and white porcelain teacup and took a light sip.

Then they spoke slowly, "Oh, what high opinion does Manager Zhao have? I have a sisterly bond with Lu He’s mother. She calls me Aunt, and in matters of marriage, I have the right to say a few words. I have learned about Sun Xuan, he is a good one. It’s admirable that he doesn’t mind Lu He being a few months older and seeks marriage. He’s quite a fine candidate."
