Chapter 16: Pursuing Her Young Miss

Chapter 16: Pursuing Her Young Miss

Green Pearl took small steps forward. "Miss, are you alright?"

Bai Xianyu's heart raced.

She took a deep breath and touched the rose with her fingers. She immediately retracted her hand as if she had touched a hot potato.

When the pedestrians in a hurry saw the two people involved, they immediately became excited.

"Isn't this Fifth Miss Bai and Xie Xingyun?!"

"I didn't expect that the first thing Young Marquis Xie did after becoming first in the Imperial Examination was to throw a flower at Fifth Miss Bai! How many noble ladies in the capital are heartbroken?"

"Fifth Miss Bai is so happy that she can't even speak!"

Bai Xianyu, "…"

Xie Xingyun handed the horse to Xiao Zheng and walked towards her.

Bai Xianyu tried her best to remain calm. Currently, Xie Xingyun still did not know that she had been reborn. As long as she rejected him in person, a proud person like Xie Xingyun would definitely not pester her anymore.

After all, in his eyes, she was no longer the Bai Xianyu of his previous life.

Xie Xingyun was a smart person. He would understand.

She used her fingers to pull out the flower. "Young Marquis… you should take this flower back."

Xie Xingyun was slightly stunned.

Bai Xianyu held it for a long time until her hand was sore, but the man in front of her did not move at all.

She gritted her teeth and wanted to throw it at him.

In any case, she could not accept it just like that. Since she had already made up her mind not to be entangled with him anymore, she should be more decisive.

However, the moment she raised her hand, Xie Xingyun moved. The man's hot palm pressed against her wrist that was white as snow and easily changed her direction. He slowly but forcefully inserted the flower back into her bun.

He said, "If you don't want mine, whose do you want?"

Bai Xianyu struggled for a while but did not break free. Seeing that more and more people were watching, two flushes of red gradually appeared on her fair face. "It doesn't matter whose I want. I just don't want yours."

Xie Xingyun frowned. "I'll only give it to you."

Why… did she resist him so much?

Could it be that he and Bai Xianyu had some grudges in the past?

Bai Xianyu took a few steps back and looked up at him.

Xie Xingyun stared at her red face and retracted his hand.

She was not going into the shop anymore. Originally, Eldest Brother was going on an expedition the next day, so she wanted to embroider a pouch for him. However, with the shop owner's gaze on her now, she really could not act as if nothing had happened.

"Green Pearl, let's go back."

Only then did Green Pearl react. "Oh, oh."

The coachman did not dare to make a sound. After Bai Xianyu and the others sat down, he gripped the horse's belly between his legs and left.

Green Pearl's tone was a little excited, "Miss, was the Young Marquis confessing his love to you just now?"

Bai Xianyu was muttering a few Heart Cleansing Incantations in a low voice and almost bit her tongue when she heard this. "…" 𝒷ℯ𝒹𝓃𝓸𝓿ℯ𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝓶

"I've seen people giving flowers before, but someone giving a flower to Miss, the Young Marquis of the Northern Garrison is the first. It seems that he likes Miss very much."

Due to the openness of the people, among the noble ladies in the capital, there was no lack of flowers. The main reason why no one gave Bai Xianyu flowers was because they were afraid of being rejected. With her looks and family background, it was only right for her to reject noble young masters. When the time came, they might not win the heart of a beauty and would even lose face.

It could be said that one could only watch from afar and not be able to play with. Some people would feel inferior just by standing there.

Bai Xianyu was a little calmer now. "Who cares? I've already rejected him anyway."

The carriage passed through a bamboo forest, but the coachman stopped.

Immediately after, the carriage sank, and a man in a python-patterned black robe with wide sleeves lifted the curtain.

Bai Xianyu grabbed Green Pearl's hand tightly; her back tensing up a little.

"Come down."

Green Pearl had an eye-opener today. She had always heard that the Young Marquis of the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor was cold and indifferent, and regarded as someone beyond reach and could only be admired from a distance in the capital.

How could he be so persistent in pursuing her young Miss!
