Chapter 937: Engagement Requires Prudence

Chapter 937: Chapter 918: Engagement Requires Prudence

Lou Xi was originally talking to Qin Mobai about Qin Moxi, but unexpectedly found herself being confessed to by Qin Mobai, and a smile immediately appeared on her face.

No matter how the outside world changed, Lou Xi could always feel the sincerity of Qin Mobai’s heart for her, and that was enough.

She always believed in one thing: the one who would accompany her to the end would not be her parents or siblings, but the man who lay in bed with her every night—Qin Mobai.

“If you see Lu Jin, pay extra attention to him. Be cautious about the engagement matter.”

“But if Mo Xi doesn’t like Lu Jin, should the engagement still proceed?”

When Lou Xi asked this question, the person on the other end of the line was silent for a moment, and then said to Lou Xi, “Actually, Mo Xi’s age is not young. Even in this social circle, some people younger than her have their marriages arranged at birth. The Qin Family does not need to rely on marriage alliances to solidify their status, but what Third Uncle and the others mean is that it should be a social match, with similar ages. If Lu Jin is suitable in all aspects…”

Qin Mobai didn’t continue, but what he meant was clear.

If everything is appropriate, even if Qin Moxi objects, the marriage will ultimately be decided, regardless of Qin Moxi’s willingness.

“But when you were with me, you didn’t consider social standing as a criterion.”

“Because I am Qin Mobai.”

“…” Lou Xi was taken aback for a second before she realized this man was being narcissistic again, “Alright, I got it!”

After hanging up Qin Mobai’s call, Lou Xi couldn’t quite say if she was happy or not.

Actually, Qin Mobai’s words made sense. It was precisely because he was Qin Mobai, powerful enough that no one could influence his marriage, so he didn’t need to care about things like social standing.

But Lou Xi could still sense that when the Qin Family found out she was the Shen Family’s lost daughter, and combined with the fact that Shen Youran’s current husband was Ji Mushen, Lou Xi could clearly feel the Qin Family’s attitude toward her was different.

Therefore, social standing in the elite circles is deeply ingrained and practically cannot be changed.

Lou Xi sighed, thinking that if she and Qin Mobai ever had children, she would never impose such rigid frameworks to make her child feel uncomfortable.

With this thought, Lou Xi quietly walked toward the living room.

Before she reached the living room, she already heard the conversation inside.

There were voices of Third Uncle, Third Aunt, Grandfather, and several unfamiliar voices.

Lou Xi thought that they were discussing serious matters, and it might not be appropriate for her to interrupt abruptly. Perhaps she should eavesdrop?

Just then, Sister Yun passed by with a tray, noticing the Young Madam standing there.

Lou Xi immediately signaled Sister Yun to be silent.

“Sister Yun, is Lu Jin inside?” Lou Xi whispered.

“No, Young Master Lu seems to have gone to find Miss Moxi.”

Qin Moxi, that girl, was hiding out in Qin Mobai’s courtyard, and it was unknown where Lu Jin gathered the courage to think he could find Qin Moxi.

“You just saw Lu Jin. What do you think of him?”

“Impeccable appearance, graceful manners, and seems quite compatible with the Miss.”

This evaluation sounded rather positive, “Then please go inside and serve the tea, but don’t tell them I’m here.”

“Alright.” Sister Yun said, and carried the tea inside.

Lou Xi glanced in the direction Sister Yun went and her gaze fell on the poised and elegant woman sitting in the chair.

If she guessed correctly, this woman should be Lu Chengxing, Fu Sinian’s childhood sweetheart, whom Qin Mobai mentioned.
