Chapter 1953: Chapter 1955: Summoning Up Courage

Seeing that Yang Qiu seemed to have understood, Wang Xiangxiang let out a sigh of relief; it seemed she had finally convinced this little girl. Looks like the Yang Family is going to have a wedding.

But there’s no need to rush to the County like this. Yang Qiu arrived late in the first place, and if she goes to the County now, it’ll be dusk by the time she arrives.

"Xiaoqiu, I’m really happy that you understand, but there’s no need to be in such a hurry. Look at the sky now, it’ll be nearly dark by the time you reach the County, and I don’t feel at ease, sister."

Yang Qiu stood there, with an entirely different expression than before. A moment ago, she was somewhat dispirited, but now her eyes were full of determination, "Sister, I want to go now. I’ve finally mustered up the courage, and if I wait until tomorrow, I’m afraid I’ll back out."

Yang Qiu’s words were true; she was indeed feeling impulsive now. She’s really worried that if she overthinks, she won’t dare to go.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiang frowned. It wasn’t impossible for Yang Qiu to back out. Yang Qiu had suddenly decided to do something, and it couldn’t be obstructed. Otherwise, if such a good thing gets ruined, she’d be at fault.

So, she decided not to stop her, pulled Yang Qiu along, and said, "Sister will let the family carriage take you."

"Mm."

Yang Qiu nodded in agreement and followed Wang Xiangxiang out the door.

Wang Xiangxiang found the family carriage and instructed them to ensure she gets there, only then did she send Yang Qiu off.

Watching the carriage go far, Wang Xiangxiang had a smile on her lips. Was she acting as a matchmaker?

...

...

The carriage headed toward the County.

Sitting in the carriage, Yang Qiu felt like her entire body was boiling with excitement and exhilaration; she’d never felt like this before.

With this mood, she spent two hours, and finally the carriage stopped.

"Miss Yang, we’re already at the gate of Xuntian Escort Agency."

Hearing the coachman’s voice, Yang Qiu got off the carriage. Indeed, the sky was a bit dusky but not completely dark.

The street was very visible; looking at the Xuntian Escort Agency’s gate, Wang Kui was inside, and her heart beat faster.

She turned to the coachman and said, "Uncle, thank you for bringing me here. I’ll go inside now while it’s still not too dark. You should head back so the path doesn’t become difficult."

The coachman looked around; they were already at the Escort Agency’s gate, and he heard some noises of swords and spears inside. She just needed to knock on the door, and Yang Qiu could enter. So he said, "Miss Yang, the mistress asked me to ensure you get here safe. How about I wait aside and watch you knock on the door? Once I see someone open the door, I’ll leave with the carriage."

Yang Qiu thought it was reasonable. This Uncle also needs to report back to Sister Xiangxiang, so she agreed.

Yang Qiu walked to the gate of Xuntian Escort Agency and knocked. Moments later, someone opened the door, saw Yang Qiu, and said, "Ah, it’s Lady Yang Qiu, please come in."

But Yang Qiu stood there without moving and instead waved to the carriage.

The coachman saw someone had come out, so he drove the carriage away.

Seeing the carriage depart, Yang Qiu stood at the gate, not entering, and asked, "Is your Head Escort Master Wang inside?"

The brother, realizing she was looking for Wang Kui, quickly said, "Yes, yes, come on in."

Yet Yang Qiu still didn’t move, instead saying, "Could you call him out for me? I have something to discuss."
