The first time I met Shen Ruoyan was on her bed.

At that time, Lu Yan was unconscious after being injured.

The first time he opened his eyes, he saw the girl sleeping on his shoulder.

The little girl closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly with her breathing, and her head rested comfortably on her shoulder, extremely well-behaved.

Although it was the first time he met her, Lu Yan felt that she was extremely familiar to her in his heart, as if she was supposed to be like this, staying by his side, and he could see her as soon as he opened his eyes.

The boy's first heartbeat happened so unexpectedly at that moment.

Lu Yan never thought that he, who had always been cold and cold, would fall in love with a girl so easily based on her sleeping face.

baffling,

But it’s also difficult to control.

Maybe it was because the sunshine that day was too good, or maybe the smell of the girl was too sweet.

Or maybe, this is what is called

fate.

From the day he met her, Lu Yan's heart, which had been calm for 20 years, stirred up a storm.

He sank into the turbulent waves, unable to extricate himself.

Her eyes, her fingers, and even a strand of hair reached to the tip of Lu Yan's heart.

Every time he saw Shen Ruoyan, Lu Yan wished he could rub her into his body and dismantle her bones into his belly.

As his love grew stronger, it also made Lu Yan more uneasy.

He was not sure what Shen Ruoyan's attitude was towards him.

Does she love him as passionately as he does?

Just like all people who fall in love, a proud man like Lu Yan can't help but worry about gains and losses. Especially after hearing the news a few days ago, this emotion has become more intense.

When he heard that Shen Ruoyan would agree to any request, an idea popped into Lu Yan's mind.

"Is it okay to do anything?" Lu Yan raised his eyelids, stared at Shen Ruoyan indifferently, and slowly uttered a few words, "How about breaking off the engagement with me?"

In Lu Yan's 20 years of life, everything was so easy to achieve. Whatever he wanted to do, he could have it with just a flick of his finger.

When he was young, he practiced martial arts with his grandfather. He could successfully practice the techniques that others could not practice in a few days.

After he grew up a little, he followed his father in the military camp. His father was afraid that he would be uneducated and incompetent, so he specially invited a retired scholar to give him lectures. The serious father and son only taught him for three days, and then he changed his mind. He happily praised him and said that he was simply a genius.

Ever since he was young, there was nothing that Lu Yan couldn't do, so he was indifferent to everything around him and had no interest in it until he met Shen Ruoyan.

This girl became the only obsession in his life.

Therefore, at this moment, he wanted to test how much weight this relationship that he regarded as a treasure had on Shen Ruoyan's balance?

Will she give up her relationship for someone else?

Hearing the conditions proposed by Lu Yan, Shen Ruoyan looked at the man sitting in front of her in shock.

Do you wonder if there is something wrong with your ears?

Seeing that she didn't answer, Lu Yan's heart sank and he gritted his teeth secretly.

As if torturing himself, he repeated it again and said, "How about you agree to break off the engagement with me, and I will agree to let them both go."

Shen Ruoyan didn't know why Lu Yan suddenly made such a request.

Her lips trembled and she opened her mouth, but not a single syllable came out.

He Mang agreed to escort Xue Jinbao to southern Xinjiang because of her entrustment, and the person who rescued people was Qin'er. If this matter was investigated, it would definitely be traced to their Shangshu Mansion, and they would take ten thousand steps back. She said that she wanted Lu Yan to be released not only for the sake of He Mang and Xue Jinbao, but also for the future of their whole family.

With her lover on one side and the safety of her whole family on the other, Shen Ruoyan was silent for a long time and finally made up her mind.

She bit her lip and said with difficulty: "Okay, as long as you let them two go, I will promise to break off the engagement with you."

Her hesitant attitude just now made Lu Yan a little disappointed. Until the moment he heard Shen Ruoyan's agreement, Lu Yan's chest seemed to be penetrated by a sharp knife, and blood dripped.

"Bang" with a crisp sound.

The cup in Lu Yan's hand was crushed to pieces.

But his body was tense, and the expression on his face was as if he had been fished out of an icy lake. Even in the hot summer, he could feel the biting coldness.

After a while, Lu Yan held back the sourness in his heart and said in a self-deprecating tone: "The person I captured today was the Treasury envoy who was responsible for buying and selling salt, tea and grain at that time. The two of them opened a warehouse privately and sold the grain, salt and grain needed by the people. Daily necessities such as daily necessities were sold to local gentry at high prices, resulting in extremely high prices across Yizhou.

Would you rather break off the engagement with me just to save these two scoundrels who make shady money? "

"What? What you captured wasn't..." Shen Ruoyan didn't finish the next sentence.

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at her, clearly saying that he didn't speak clearly on purpose.

Shen Ruoyan suddenly felt ashamed that she had been tricked, and turned around to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Lu Yan stopped him, "Let me ask you, why did you leave this time?"

Shen Ruoyan said angrily: "Visit Qin'er and take Ayuan to see a doctor."

Lu Yan's tone became calmer and a bit stern, "I remind you again, think carefully before answering."

Shen Ruoyan knew that Lu Yan must have known something, but she was holding back her breath and did not want to show any weakness at all. She said: "I have thought about it clearly, and this is the answer. What's the matter? Mr. Lu is dissatisfied with me because of this and wants to fight with me." Break off the engagement?"

Hearing the word "break off the engagement", Lu Yan was obviously stung again and wanted to lose his temper, but he was reluctant to say a harsh word in front of Shen Ruoyan.

After taking several deep breaths and finally holding back all his emotions, Lu Yan used his utmost patience and calmly analyzed: "Southern Xinjiang is indeed a suitable place to hide, but according to He Mang's high-profile personality, let him take Xue Jinbao with him. People around you will recognize you within a few days.

Why didn't you tell me that you wanted to save Xue Jinbao? "

As Shen Ruoyan listened, a circle of water gradually appeared in her eyes. In order to prevent tears from flowing out, she could only try to open her eyes wide and look at Lu Yan stubbornly.

I didn't tell him about this because I didn't want him to be implicated!

Seeing that she had not spoken for a long time, Lu Yan let out a long sigh, raised his head, and asked with a helpless expression on his face: "Ayan, you don't have any trust in me?"

Shen Ruoyan was suddenly shocked.

She really couldn't answer Lu Yan's question.

Because of the experience in her previous life, Shen Ruoyan could not convince herself to reveal all her feelings to Lu Yan without any reservation.
