Chapter 374: Chapter 374: You Can Change It Now If You Don’t Want To (8)_1

Having left Old Scholar Fang behind, Shen Songming ran to find Pei Qin again. "Leave all the other troublesome matters to me! I guarantee I won’t bother you! You just need to agree to marry me!"

"Get lost!" Pei Qin said impatiently.

Shen Songming started to exploit his thick skin. "The day you want me to die, I’ll definitely die! But for now, you need to agree to marry me first! Really! It’s not as troublesome as you think! I’m just a businessman, and I’ve been blamed for the death of a fiancée, even though I didn’t do it, the blame is mine. Let’s get engaged first, and in a couple of years when you feel like getting married, we’ll marry then! I’ll put you first, respect your wishes! How about it? Marry me! It will definitely be less troublesome than now! You can live as freely as you want!"

"My current thought is that I wish you would stop buzzing in my ear!" Pei Qin had lost the power of speech—this guy was seriously not right in the head! Was that beating too light!? Or maybe it’s because getting spanked doesn’t hurt!?

Shen Songming immediately clammed up, just staring at her with his eyes, fixated on her. His gaze screamed "Marry me! Marry me! Marrying me has benefits, no trouble! Marry! Marry!"

Pei Qin completely ignored him, fiddling with the peanuts in her hand, preparing to make candied peanuts and Drunkard’s Peanuts for the following day.

Pei Qian swallowed hard and held back Pei Yuan, telling her not to go help. "Haven’t you seen the fiery look he has when staring at our elder sister?"

Pei Yuan’s face flushed red from her sister’s blunt speech. "It’s not as exaggerated as you say! If people heard that, it would damage our elder sister’s reputation!"

"Seeing how our elder sister’s face isn’t flushed and she’s not out of breath, I don’t understand why she despises Brother Songming!" Pei Qian sighed. Their elder sister’s temperament was really worrying!

Pei Yuan couldn’t figure it out either. She had seen quite a few people and felt that Shen Songming would be the most suitable brother-in-law! Perhaps, "Is our elder sister wary of the Shen family’s power and influence?" But it didn’t feel quite right, and their elder sister wouldn’t say those things either.

Pei Qian frowned, indeed, this was a big problem.

Seeing the pair peeking from the West room, Shen Songming couldn’t resist sending them a pleading look. He had often bought nice things for these few Little Radishes, and now that he was frustrated, they didn’t come to give a hand!

Both felt helpless; if they dared to say another word to their elder sister about marrying Shen Songming, a big slap would come flying their way.

Seeing the two retreat back into the house, Shen Songming felt indignantly wronged and squatted down to help Pei Qin with the peanuts, mumbling every now and then.

Pei Qin was almost impressed. "Shen Songming! Why the hell are you acting like a girl!?"

Shen Songming got angry, stood up, and stared at her. "Do you actually want to marry me or not?"

"Don’t want to!" Pei Qin gave him a cold look.

"Fine... fine!" Shen Songming took a deep breath and put on a shameless smile. "No problem! You don’t want to now, you can still change!"

Pei Qin sized him up and felt he was not in his right mind. "Too bad there are no psychiatrists in ancient times."

"Pei Qin! Just prepare yourself! I’ll go home and take care of everything you find bothersome, secure the rewards, and from now on, you’d better start changing! Keep changing until you want to marry me!" Shen Songming huffed and then walked away with his head high and chest out.

"His parents from his past life must have had a tough time!" Pei Qin watched his retreating back, sighed, and couldn’t help adding, "This life’s parents have it even harder. Parents from two lifetimes have had it tough! I wonder which unfortunate pair will have to deal with such a son in the next life!" She clicked her tongue and continued playing with the peanuts.

The next day, she made candied peanuts and Drunkard’s Peanuts and took them to the county town.

Lu Hai drove the cart, while Pei Qin lay on the donkey cart with her legs crossed, a foxtail grass in her mouth, humming "Wuhuan," with the gentle autumn breeze blowing—nothing could be more comfortable.
