Chapter 37 Betrothed to the Xia Family
The city of smoke in autumn is always shrouded in an indelible layer of fog, and the misty autumn rain adds to the desolation.

On the tower of Shuijing Pavilion, the two chess players swept thousands of horses and horses in the chess game with their eyes.

"Although you have gone back, they will try to get rid of your people again."

Duan Yanan dropped the white chess in his hand, and then replied: "Since Yan An has gone back, it is not so easy to withdraw again."

The man in the indigo robe has a white beard, and the eyes hidden in the ravine are like a quiet ancient pool.

"Yan An, under the smog in Yandu, it's not at all shallower than the thousand-foot-deep sea... It's better to be careful."

"Mr. Bai, no matter how deep you are, there will be a bottom." His tone was also indifferent.

Bai Qinian just smiled and turned his attention to the chess game again.

On the crowded train station, Jiang Ci stood under an umbrella and looked around.

"There." Jiang Shu said, and gave someone an umbrella in the rain.

Jiang Yuanshan waved to her, and there was an elegant and easy-going man standing beside him.

"A Ci, this is the son of Uncle Xia, my best friend, Qiancheng."

Jiang Ci suddenly looked at him in surprise: "I know him. Sister Qin Shuang likes to read the books he translated, and I have read the books he wrote."

Xia Qiancheng met the unavoidable golden eyes, and his eyes were also full of surprises.

"It turns out that Ah Ci knows...it would be the best!" Jiang Yuanshan immediately stretched his eyebrows, "Qiancheng will live in Yandu for a while, you can ask him any questions you have in the future."

"Qiancheng must know everything."

She nodded in response: "OK."

Jiang Shu also hid his smile and chatted with Xia Qiancheng for a few words.

Several people left the train station together.

As far as Yu Jiangci is concerned, the three words "Xiaqian City" are nailed to the book, as if they don't really exist, and he never thought that one day these three words will turn into living people, and stand in front of him, I am curious from the bottom of my heart.

On the way back, her questions never stopped.Xia Qiancheng also answered her one by one.

Both father and son are very satisfied with this, after all Xiaqian City is their acquaintance who knows everything.

Jiang Ci followed Jiang Shu to send Xiaqian City back to his apartment.Before leaving, he held the umbrella in one hand, opened his suitcase full of books with the other hand, took out a hardcover book in a hurry, and handed it to Jiang Ci.

"This is Xia's favorite book, and it is also the first translation. Only this book has been printed."

Jiang Ci took the book and couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.

"Thank you Mr. Xia."

Xia Qiancheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "It's Xia's luck that Miss Jiang likes Xia's book."

"Mr. Xia, your book is about to drop." Jiang Shu teased deliberately.

Xia Qiancheng hurriedly closed the suitcase again.

"Then let's go. Goodbye, Mr. Xia." Jiang Ci said goodbye to him happily.

"……goodbye."

He stood on the spot and watched the two of them off, then took another deep breath.

And Jiang Ci, who was sitting in the car, had already opened the book.

For her, books and paintings are like a window accidentally opened in that blurred field of vision, allowing her to truly understand the world she has never seen clearly.

Therefore, people like Xia Qiancheng occupy a very sacred place in her heart.

"Want to watch it so soon?" Jiang Shu started teasing her again, "Isn't it just the first time you saw him?"

"But I've read his books, and I already know him."

Jiang Shu pretended to be helpless and sighed when he saw her appearance as it should be.

But in a few days, in the apartment in Xiaqian City, there were many people who came to visit.

"You said, Xiaqian city is full of smoke?" Lin Qiao stood up from the chair and looked at Liu Yi with a startled expression, "But really?"

"Aunt Qiao, it's true." Wu Hanyan also came over happily, "I heard that Mr. Wen even went to visit in person."

"A gentle and talented young man like Xiaqiancheng is the dream of many girls." Lin Qiao stepped forward and took her hand, "Shall we go to visit him too? Aunt Qiao has never seen him before."

Wu Hanyan could only agree with a helpless smile.

"I met him once. He is humble, but he is not as majestic as his writing in real life, but a little restrained." She thought about it carefully, and commented with a chuckle, "...but a little cute."

Lin Qiao became even more curious when he heard this.

"Then I must see you."

"Mr. Wen held a banquet in Shuijing Pavilion, and Aunt Qiao will be able to see him then."

Lin Qiao jokingly said: "Hanyan, Aunt Qiao thinks that Xiaqian City is not bad, but you must seize the opportunity."

Wu Hanyan forced a smile, but did not respond.

The news about the Wen family's banquet in Xiaqian city also spread to Jiang Yuanshan.

"Qiancheng can't refuse. After all, the Xia family and the Wen family are family friends. If Miss Wen hadn't had an accident before, he should have started a family."

Jiang Shu defended Xia Qiancheng.

Jiang Yuanshan didn't take it seriously: "Is this marriage not consummated... I've already made an agreement with your Uncle Xia, and his marriage with Ah Ci is almost settled. The words are familiar and familiar."

"Dad, Mr. Wen's banquet, how could it be so simple?" Jiang Shu sighed softly, "The Wen family also has a daughter who is about the same age as Ah Ci."

"So what?" Jiang Yuanshan stood up, seemingly no longer worried, "Can his daughter compare to my Jiang Yuanshan's daughter?"

Jiang Shu smiled lightly and nodded in agreement.

Mr. Wen invited many other people to a banquet in Xiaqian City, but he did not invite the Jiang family.

Therefore, Xia Qiancheng could only send his invitation to the Jiang family.

Jiang Ci leaned on the sofa, watching Jiang Shu's expression change.

"It doesn't matter if you don't go, this family didn't even invite you, if you go, wouldn't it seem pretentious?"

Xia Qiancheng nodded slightly in apology: "Jiang Shu, I know that I must have wronged Ah Ci by doing this, but I can't refuse Uncle Wen after all. This is the best way I can think of to refuse."

Jiang Ci looked back and forth between the two with a puzzled expression.

"Why did you refuse?" She asked seriously, "If you don't want to go, can't you just refuse?"

Both looked at her suspiciously.

"Mr. Wen definitely wants Qiancheng to marry the Wen family again, so of course he has to refuse."

Jiang Shu replied her as it should.

But Jiang Ci looked at Xia Qiancheng: "Is it because Mr. Xia doesn't like Miss Wen's family?"

"A Ci, you and I... are engaged." Xia Qiancheng no longer shy away, looked directly at her, and solemnly promised, "I will definitely not marry anyone else."

Jiang Ci stared at him blankly, the sudden news made her a little out of breath.

After Xia Qiancheng finished speaking, he got up and said goodbye.

"Then I'll go first."

Jiang Shu sent her to the door, and when she came back, she was still in a daze.

"Aci, the people in Qiancheng are very nice, and he will treat you well. I can assure you of that." Jiang Shu sat down to enlighten her, "And, don't you like his books very much?"

"But, is this an engagement?" She frowned slightly.

"If you like his books, you like his temperament and character. In this way, you will definitely like him in the future when you get along with him."

She looked at him dubiously, but when she heard "get along with each other in the future", she didn't seem to have any expectations in her heart.
