Chapter 790: Chapter 790 How Long Have We Known Each Other?

"Unmarried boys, unmarried girls, what do you think our relationship should be?" He Nan didn’t answer but counter-asked, kicking the ball right back.

"Are you two dating?" Ruan Yiqian asked bluntly.

"Hmm." Not only did He Nan not deny it, but he also acknowledged it generously, "However, I would rather not let others know about this for the time being. She is still studying, and I don’t want it to impact her learning."

It was self-evident who this ’others’ included.

"Xiaonan, have you lost your mind? Shen Mianmian just started her freshman year, she’s only in her teens this year. You like a nineteen-year-old child?" Setting aside family backgrounds, the two were clearly mismatched.

He Nan’s face darkened, and he reminded in a deep voice, "I’m only in my twenties." He was only a few years older than Shen Mianmian, after all.

Ruan Yiqian: "..."

He Nan was mature and steady, always making it easy for people to forget his age.

"Even if your ages aren’t that big of an issue, do you really think you’re compatible with Shen Mianmian?"

"What’s incompatible?" He Nan counter-asked.

Ruan Yiqian: "..."

He fell silent for a moment and decided to have a calm and rational conversation, "Xiaonan, this is your matter, and in principle, I shouldn’t interfere. But we’ve grown up together since childhood, and I don’t want to see you regret it. Regardless of family backgrounds or anything else, I think that Cheng Xining would be more suitable for you. Shen Mianmian is too scheming, too calculating, she’s simply not right for you."

Being with Cheng Xining would be a win-win situation.

In Ruan Yiqian’s view, if He Nan and Cheng Xining were together, it would save a lot of trouble, and the relationship between the two families would be even closer. From any perspective, it would be perfect.

Shen Mianmian was like Cheng Yaojin, who emerged out of nowhere.

Her appearance brought no good to anyone.

He Nan’s expression grew somber and he said, "How long have we known each other?"

Without waiting for Ruan Yiqian to answer, he continued, "You understand my temper. To put it nicely, I see Cheng Xining as, a sister. To put it harshly, she doesn’t even count as a sister. No matter what the elders think, I have made my own decision and I don’t want to hear this kind of talk a second time."

Ruan Yiqian’s expression slightly changed, "Xiaonan, for Shen Mianmian, do you think it’s worth it?"

If He Nan married a girl from a matching family background, the Ruan Family would not have any objections. But if he married Shen Mianmian, who was inferior to Cheng Xining in every way, there would definitely be a rift between the two families in the future.

Fu Hua and Mr. He wouldn’t agree, either.

What He Nan had to face was not as simple as not marrying Cheng Xining.

"Worth it." He Nan didn’t hesitate for a moment, "Everything about her is what I like. In your eyes, she’s scheming and calculating; in mine, these are her strengths. So, do you have anything else you want to persuade me with?"

"..."

Ruan Yiqian stared at He Nan with surprise for a while before finally saying, "Xiaonan, I never thought you could be so irrational. It seems you’re truly smitten with Shen Mianmian."

He acknowledged that Shen Mianmian was beautiful, but there were plenty of women who were just as attractive. A nineteen-year-old girl had managed to get such a tight grip on He Nan; he could only say that Shen Mianmian was more complex than he had thought.

The edge in He Nan’s expression softened as he smiled lightly, "You’re wrong, I’m very rational. I know what I want and who I want to marry."

Ruan Yiqian let out a sigh, "Well, it seems that anything else I say will fall on deaf ears. I’m off to Licheng first, we can talk if there’s anything when I get back."
