Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 203

Soon, the atmosphere in the room shifted to: Pei Shuo and Sheng Nuan were clearly a perfect match made in heaven.

Sheng Qingyang and Xue Suwan didn’t quite understand why, but they both felt that their daughter and Pei Shuo were really well-suited for each other. If they opposed it, it would be like beating the mandarin ducks.

Then the conversation turned to Sheng Nuan.

Lin Zhi’s tone was extremely soft as she looked at Sheng Nuan and asked with a smile, “I heard from Pei Shuo that Nuan Nuan is in school now? It’s good to go to school, it’s always beneficial for girls to study more.”

Sheng Nuan responded with a smile.

Lin Zhi asked again, “Are you planning to take the college entrance exam?”

Sheng Nuan nodded, “Yes, I am.”

Lin Zhi continued to smile, “What a promising child… What university do you want to attend, and what major are you interested in?”

Sheng Nuan thought for a moment, “My ideal is Peking University. I want to study computer science because I feel this field has great prospects and is quite important, but it all depends on the college entrance exam results.”

Lin Zhi praised her repeatedly, “Not bad, not bad. Having ambitions is good. Just do your best, but don’t stress yourself out too much from studying… By the way, do you like chocolate? I brought you two boxes of foreign chocolates, I hope you’ll like them.”

Sheng Nuan quickly thanked her.

Lin Zhi and Pei Yuanming exchanged glances, sharing a silent understanding, both feeling extremely pleased.

An eighteen-year-old girl with aspirations and ideals, neither humble nor arrogant… She seemed to be more accomplished than the other young girls in their courtyard.

It didn’t take long for the conversation to shift towards the topic of engagement.

In this era, especially in the countryside, when two families met and felt they were a good match, they typically got engaged first. After the engagement, the man and woman can continue their relationship for a while and, if everything goes well, proceed to marriage.

But Sheng Nuan wasn’t ready for engagement yet and felt a little dazed for a while.

She thought Pei Shuo’s parents had come just to visit and to bring their relationship to light, but unexpectedly, she heard the word “engagement.”

She stood up, picked up the teapot, and walked outside, giving Pei Shuo a glance.

Pei Shuo promptly stood up and followed her out.

Lin Zhi watched her son’s submissive expression after being disciplined, feeling a mix of helplessness and amusement, secretly thinking that the brat would have his day.

Once they reached the courtyard, Sheng Nuan hesitantly asked, “Are we really getting engaged now?”

Pei Shuo paused for a moment then took two steps closer. “You don’t want to?”

His gaze turned a bit dangerous. “After everything we’ve done, you still don’t want to get engaged?”

Seeing his “Are you a scumbag?” attitude, Sheng Nuan couldn’t help but laugh helplessly. “It’s not that I don’t want to; it just feels a bit fast.”

“It’s not too fast.”

Pei Shuo replied, “We’ve been together for a few months now, and getting engaged can also shut down those who gossip about you… Let’s get engaged first, and when you turn twenty, if you don’t want to be with me anymore, we can just annul the engagement.”

Pei Shuo’s voice was a bit heavy, and he stared at Sheng Nuan without blinking.

Sheng Nuan raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean I might not want to be with you? What if you change your mind?”

Pei Shuo answered without hesitation, “I won’t.”

He continued, “As long as you don’t change your mind, I’ll only recognize you in this lifetime.”

The usually quiet and cold Brother Soldier suddenly blurted out this line, causing a hint of amusement to flicker in Sheng Nuan’s eyes. She deliberately teased him, “What if I change my mind?”

Pei Shuo gazed at her quietly, “Then I’ll see which man dares to pursue you.”

Sheng Nuan couldn’t help but chuckle…

Just then, someone came in.

“Nuan Nuan…” A woman in a floral blouse entered, carrying a small child, followed by a man in a leather jacket.

It was Sheng Nuan’s older sister, Sheng Xia, and her family.

Someone from Sheng Xia’s village came to Qinghe Village to watch a movie the day before yesterday, and they happened to witness Sheng Xi causing a scene in the threshing ground. When they returned, the news spread throughout the village.

Sheng Xia only found out yesterday and hurried back early this morning.

On the way, her husband kept complaining that she shouldn’t get involved, saying it would bring shame to the family, but Sheng Xia only responded, “That’s my sister.”

Once they entered the village, they realized something was off, and from the villagers they met along the way, they learned that the sister from home hadn’t acted recklessly but was in a serious relationship. The other family had come to visit, and they even drove a car.

Sheng Xia’s husband, Jin Xing, was initially reluctant to come, but after hearing what the villagers said and seeing the car parked in front of his father-in-law’s house, his attitude changed.

“I told you not to worry. Wow, just look at this car, it’s shiny and must be worth a lot of money…”

Upon entering, Sheng Xia quickly rushed over to her sister, calling out, “Nuan Nuan.”

“Elder sister.” Sheng Nuan took her little nephew from Sheng Xia’s arms and asked, “What brings you here?”

“Sister, I heard yesterday that something happened at home, so I hurried back to check… As long as everything is okay, it’s all good.”

Afterward, Sheng Xia noticed the tall and handsome soldier beside Sheng Nuan. “This is…”

Sheng Nuan smiled as she pulled Pei Shuo over. “Elder sister, this is my partner, Pei Shuo. Pei Shuo, this is my elder sister and brother-in-law.”

Pei Shuo politely nodded, “Elder sister, brother-in-law.”

Only then did Sheng Xia feel relieved… Behind her, Jin Xing awkwardly chuckled, “Hello, hello. I’m Sheng Nuan’s brother-in-law. Nice to meet you.”

Sheng Nuan carried her little niece, Niu Niu, and brought her sister’s family inside.

Jin Xing had always been domineering in front of Sheng Nuan’s older sister, Sheng Xia, but when he saw the guard standing at the entrance of Sheng Nuan’s house and the imposing presence of Pei Yuanming and his wife inside, he instantly turned into a quail, not daring to say a word.

At noon that day, Sheng Xia helped Xue Suwan prepare a large table of dishes, including dried mountain goods and the pheasant Sheng Nuan had brought home last week, making eight or nine dishes in total.

Pei Yuanming and his wife didn’t act pretentious, and during the meal, everyone enjoyed themselves and at the same time, also finalized the engagement between Sheng Nuan and Pei Shuo, set for two months later.

By the afternoon, Pei Yuanming and his wife were sent to the village entrance by Sheng Qingyang and his wife before getting in their car to leave…

Sheng Xia felt relieved and helped her mother tidy up before preparing to go home.

Sheng Nuan took a bag and packed a bunch of the things the Pei family had brought, then asked Pei Shuo to drive her sister’s family back.

When they arrived at Jin Xing’s house and saw Sheng Xia get out of a car carrying large bags, Jin Xing’s parents, who had been grumbling that morning, instantly came over with smiles on their faces. Once they learned that this imposing soldier was actually Sheng Xia’s future brother-in-law, the elderly couple became even more enthusiastic.

Sheng Nuan still had to go to school, so she didn’t go inside. She just asked her sister to carry everything back before leaving with Pei Shuo for school.

On the way, Sheng Nuan felt a bit helpless.

She knew that the man Sheng Xia married wasn’t great, but she also understood that life was lived by oneself. What she could do now was to help Sheng Xia gain some standing and confidence in her in-laws, rather than trying to change things based on her own perceptions.

Beside her, Pei Shuo suddenly spoke, “What’s wrong? You sighed suddenly.”

Sheng Nuan adjusted her position, “It’s nothing, just thinking about my elder sister’s situation…”

Pei Shuo glanced at her, “Don’t think about others for now, think about us… My mom said that when we get engaged, she’ll send over a set of home appliances. I don’t mind, but I’m worried you might think it’s too high-profile. What do you think?”

Sheng Nuan quickly waved her hand, “No need for such a big fuss, it’s not really necessary in the village now.”

In this day and age, even if you had money, you might not be able to buy home appliances, let alone get a full set at once. It wasn’t necessary, and it didn’t make sense.

Pei Shuo thought for a moment, “Then let’s ask them to send over a washing machine.”

He knew this little girl liked cleanliness and often did laundry…

Sheng Nuan smiled and leaned over to kiss him on the cheek, “Company Commander is really considerate.”

Pei Shuo sighed softly, “Even like this, some people still don’t want to get married yet…”

Sheng Nuan laughed, “Why are you so petty? I just said it’s a bit fast. Who doesn’t want to get married…”

Pei Shuo turned his head, “So you do want to get married… you made a good choice!” ヽ(￣▽￣)
