Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart Chapter 445 - 444: Not Even a Chance to Compete!

So even speculated whether Shangguan Ruyan had already let go; otherwise, how could she be so friendly with her "rival in love"?

"You all have finally arrived!" Mada Shangguan smiled and said, "Wenwan, you take this young lady to her seat first, while I have a few words with Ruyan."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Ruyan looked at Shen Qinglan and smiled, "Then, Miss Shen, you sit with my sister-in-law first, I’ll be right back."

Once they were led away, the smile at Shangguan Ruyan’s lips finally started to fade.

She looked at Mada Shangguan and whispered, "Mother, what do you want to say to ?"

Mada Shangguan sighed softly, quickly pulled her away from the crowd, and whispered, "Mada Shangshu and Wei Gongzi are both here. Wei Gongzi is with your father, and Mada Shangshu is seated with several ladies; rember to greet them later."

Shangguan Ruyan’s expression darkened slightly, "I know, Mother, I’ll go in a while."

"Ah—"

Mada Shangguan sighed faintly, "Ah Zhao has no interest in you; you’ve waited for him for almost two years now, but it’s ti to give up. Wei Gongzi is excellent; among the gentry, in both appearance and talent, he is one of the best, and he’s always been fond of you."

"Since you’ve already agreed to this marriage, and now, the wedding docunt has been exchanged and the engagent set, it’s too late to regret. You may as well settle down and prepare for the wedding, don’t think about anything else."

Mada Shangguan couldn’t bear to see her daughter upset, but since her nephew had no intention towards her daughter, she could not force Le Zhao to marry her daughter. Doing so would not only make others ridicule her daughter but also both families, possibly even causing a feud.

She didn’t wish for nor want to see such an outco.

"Since I’ve agreed, I naturally won’t regret it." Shangguan Ruyan pursed her lips, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Mother, don’t worry, your daughter is not soone who doesn’t know her place, there won’t be any jokes."

"That’s good!" Mada Shangguan gently patted her head and said helplessly, "I heard that young lady was brought here by your Brother Zhao, do you know which family she’s from?"

Knowing her mother had misunderstood, Shangguan Ruyan quickly explained, "Miss Shen was invited by , not brought by Brother Zhao."

"Ah?" Mada Shangguan was slightly startled, "I just heard those young ladies discussing, saying Brother Zhao likes that young lady, but that young lady is not interested in him?"

"Mother, do you believe everything?" Shangguan Ruyan laughed helplessly.

If Duan Yunfei heard this story, what would beco of it?

Covering her mouth slightly with her hand, she whispered a few words in Mada Shangguan’s ear, which surprised her.

"You’re saying that young lady is actually the fiancée of Young Master Duan?"

"Mm." Shangguan Ruyan nodded, "I didn’t invite Young Master Duan this ti; perhaps he was worried and asked Brother Zhao to watch over her."

She didn’t expect that in such a short ti, the story would spread like this.

"Oh dear!" Mada Shangguan furrowed her brows, "That Miss Yi speaks so convincingly that I believed it."

"Miss Yi?" Shangguan Ruyan raised an eyebrow, "Mother, are you referring to Yi Qianqian?"

"Indeed." Mada Shangguan helplessly said, "Now, all the ladies think that Miss Shen is Brother Zhao’s beloved."

Le Zhao’s beloved? Shangguan Ruyan smiled bitterly.

If Shen Qinglan were Le Zhao’s beloved, she wouldn’t be so desperate.

The outco might be a loss, but at least she could still fight for it.

But the problem is, Le Zhao doesn’t like won, and she doesn’t even have the chance to compete!
