Chapter 6 Riding the Tide

Nangong Ling walked out of the study dejectedly, thinking about the bad news he had just heard, and felt that the sky was about to fall for a while.

What should I do? Why did a fiancé suddenly appear? Although this thing was very common in ancient times, it was quite difficult for her to accept it as a modern person. Moreover, what kind of immortal is this? If I am a scoundrel and a gentleman, then my life will not be ruined? No, I can't be at the mercy of others, I really can't, I can only ......

Nangong Ling returned to his small courtyard in a daze and called two maids to ask Dongfang Yu about it.

It turns out that this Dongfang Yu is the eldest young master of the Oriental family and the head of the Oriental family. It is said that the Nangong family and the Dongfang family are world friends, and the relationship between the two families is very good. Seven years ago, during the vicious battle with the Demon Sect, Dongfang Lei unfortunately died, and entrusted his wife and children to Nangong Yu before he died, and when they grew up, they would get married.

That's child's play. Nangong Ling thought depressedly, if this Dongfang Yu Chang is disabled or a fool, should I marry too?

After thinking about it, it is best to think of a way to let that Dongfang Yu automatically withdraw from the marriage. After making up his mind, Nangong Ling came to find the eldest brother to find out.

"Big brother, does Dongfang Yu like me?" asked Nangong Ling.

"This ......" Nangong Jun thought for a while and said, "Ah Yu has a stable personality and treats you politely. I think he should like it. ”

Yes? "Then does he have any opinion on this marriage?" Nangong Ling asked again.

"With the orders of his parents, Ah Yu will not do anything disobedient. Nangong Jun said, "You don't have to worry about marriage." ”

I'll go, Nangong Ling secretly rolled his eyes, "Big brother, do you think he will withdraw from the marriage?"

"Impossible!" Nangong Jun denied, "Ah Yu finally made a promise, and it was impossible to divorce the marriage." ”

Nangong Ling said listlessly, "Big brother, you help me tell my father, don't urge us to get married, give us some time, let's get along again, it's always okay!"

Nangong Jun thought for a while and said, "The pro is definitely going to be successful, but don't be so anxious, I'll help you tell your father, but you are not allowed to play tricks." ”

"OK," Nangong Ling happily took Nangong Jun's hand and high-fived.

Nangong Jun looked at her in confusion, feeling that it was really inappropriate for her sister to look like this.

Thinking of her fiancé she had never met, Nangong Ling was extremely depressed, and in order to relax, she decided to go out shopping. Nangong Ling asked the maid about leaving the mansion, and the answer was no. The maid Xia He said categorically, "Miss, the master will definitely not agree to let you go out of the house." Nangong Ling thought for a while and said, "Let's go out secretly." ”

"Secretly ......" Xia He remembered that Nangong Ling and Chunxiang had secretly left the house to cause an accident before, and was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped: "Miss, this is absolutely unacceptable, if something goes wrong, then the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will be finished." ”

"How can it be so serious!" Nangong Ling said: "I will bear the responsibility when something happens, and I will never let you be punished." ”

Xia He led Nangong Ling with a sad face and quietly slipped out of the house through the back door.

As soon as she got on the street, Nangong Ling was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and it was strange to see anything.

What appeared in front of Nangong Ling was a scene like "Qingming Riverside Map". A bustling street, crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, endless streams, there are businessmen doing business, there are gentry watching the street scene, there are officials on horseback, there are hawkers, there are family members who ride in sedan chairs, there are monks with walking feet with baskets, there are tourists from other towns who ask for directions, there are street children who listen to and hear stories, there are children of wealthy families who drink wildly in restaurants, there are disabled old people who beg on the edge of the city, men and women, old and young, farmers and businessmen, three religions and nine streams, all the houses on both sides are lined up, there are tea houses, wine shops, butcher shops, Pharmacy and so on, hanging the market banner outside the store to solicit business, so prosperous.

Nangong Ling sighed: It turns out that this is the ancient Jinling City!

"Miss!" Xia He asked in a low voice, "Where are we going?"

"Where are you going?" Nangong Ling touched his chin and thought for a while and said, "I don't know anywhere, just go shopping, where to go!"

"Huh?" Xia He was stunned, looked at Nangong Ling's back as he walked forward, and hurriedly chased after him.

Nangong Ling and Xia He walked around for a whole afternoon, and their feet were sore.

So, the two entered the Tongfu Restaurant, asked for a private room on the second floor, ordered some snacks, and ate.

After eating, Nangong Ling sat on the railing on the second floor and looked out.

In the distance, there is a rainbow-shaped bridge, and on the bridge deck is a bustling flow of people. The afterglow of the twilight sun faintly sprinkles on the red bricks and green tiles or the brightly colored pavilion cornices, adding a bit of hazy and poetic to the prosperous evening scene in front of you. It seemed that a melodious sound of the piano floated over, and Nangong Ling closed his eyes and listened quietly.

In the midst of this rare comfort, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, getting closer and closer.
