Mission 24

After all, he intended to proceed with his marriage to Shen Lianxue. Given his plans, it was essential for him to maintain a positive relationship with the Shen family. Consequently, certain clarifications needed to be made. He didn't want the Shen family to misinterpret his intentions or bear any ill will toward him.

The Elders of the Shen family clan heard his explanation.

Indeed, this was the case.

Shen Ningyu had relayed the details to the 500-meter family, but no representatives from the Qian Family had approached her. They had assumed they could simply await the formal betrothal, but it appeared that Young Master Qian didn't share the same sentiment. Shen Ningyu had misunderstood his intentions.

The elders from the 500-meter family found Shen Ningyu's current state rather awkward. They swiftly reined her in, advising, "Ningyu, you're a young lady. What's happening?"

With that, they offered their apologies to the Qian Family's elders.
