章 35: The Young Marquis Who is Blind yet Clear-Headed (23)

"Then why?" Hearing what Xiao Anning said, Princess Yong An's mind was finally put at ease.

"I just, I don't want to hold her up. If she doesn't want to marry me, we should bring it up right away. This will allow us to handle the matter more appropriately. Since we've been betrothed to each other, if the marriage is going to be called off, regardless of which party is the one to do it, Miss Ji's reputation will be ruined. So if we really want to break off this marriage engagement, we have to come up with a foolproof plan," Xiao Anning said in a deep voice.

"My son, you are just so kind. The woman you end up marrying will be truly blessed to have you as her husband," Princess Yong An sighed gently. It should be a good thing that her son was so kind, but she was afraid that he would get hurt because of his kindness.

"Which is why I think it'd be best for you, Mother, to ask Miss Ji what she really wants," Xiao Anning said.
