Bab 162: Chapter 162: Mu Zhongqing's Attitude Second Watch (1)_1

Cai Wei was shocked. In ancient times, men usually married at eighteen or nineteen. At Huo Yuan's age, his children should be running all over the place. Unbelievably, he was still unmarried?

Huo Yuan, noticing her surprised expressions, explained, "A few years ago, my family had arranged my marriage. However, the young lady fell ill from falling into water during a feast and after deteriorating for a few years, she couldn't hold on any longer. She passed away around this time last year so, I am still unmarried."

"Oh!"

Cai Wei suddenly realized, "No wonder you're still unmarried at this age. However, don't be too upset. People can't be brought back to life; the living should always look forward!"

Huo Yuan honesty replied, "Although I regretted for that lady, I was not saddened. I did not even know what she looked like, what she enjoyed, or what her personality was like. How could I be upset over a stranger who was only related to me in name?"

"That's true!"
