Han Yue's Thoughts (4/5)

Sitting in the main seat, Han Chi withdrew his gaze from the scroll in Han Xue's hand, and his eyes turned to Nalan Chenfeng with a deeper meaning.

A daughter is like a tree that cannot be kept at home once she grows up. Yue'er's attitude was clear. If he couldn't understand it and continued to obstruct her, he would be unworthy of being a father.

Even from the perspective of family interests, a fifteen-year-old Dou Wang expert has unlimited potential for future achievements, making it worthwhile for the Han Family to take a gamble.

The Han Family has no reason to oppose the two; on the contrary, they should give them their full support.

"Brother is wise!"

That's exactly right--

".."

As soon as Han Chi finished speaking, Han Tian and others echoed his words in the hall.

It's obvious that Han Tian isn't the only one who thinks highly of Nalan Chenfeng; elders like Han Yue share the same opinion.

"Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Han. Chenfeng will certainly live up to Yue'er's expectations."

Nalan Chenfeng's expression froze slightly, but he quickly regained his composure, bowed, and clasped his hands in greeting.

Han Chi made this choice without any surprise; this man, whom he could now address as his father-in-law, treated his daughter very well.

As long as Han Yue makes his stance clear, even if he is weaker, Han Chi will still agree.

During casual conversations, Han Yue had told him about the Han Family, so he knew something about his father-in-law.

Han Yue stood to the side, a blush rising on her beautiful, snow-white cheeks. She lowered her eyes and remained silent, a strand of silver hair falling down, making her appear even more charming.

Her father publicly betrothed her to Chenfeng, which meant that they were legally engaged.

After that, she could confidently entrust herself to Nalan Chenfeng and try to have a child as soon as possible to solidify her position by his side.

In the Dou Qi Continent, it's common for powerful individuals to have multiple wives and concubines; procreation is of paramount importance.

The same was true in the Han Family; even her father had several concubines.

She had always understood the simple principle that a mother's status depends on her son, so she had to be prepared while this guy still liked her.

She liked the person in front of her, and she was aware of the differences between them. This was perhaps the only thing she could do for him.

Han Chi glanced back and forth between the two of them, chuckled twice, and stood up from the main seat.

"I shouldn't pry into your affairs as young people, but as long as Yue'er is willing, I, as her father, will have no objections."

Han Chi walked up to Nalan Chenfeng, raised his hand and patted the latter on the shoulder, his eyes full of admiration.

He has two daughters, but he never thought of sending them to marry into wealthy families or using them for family deals.

He was fond of the person in front of him, but the most important factor was Yue's opinion.

"It's getting late, my dear nephew. You must be tired from your journey. Go and rest first. Dou Technique of the Han Family are stored in the Han Family Dou Technique Pavilion. I will personally take you to retrieve them tomorrow."

"My nephew may enter and study all the Dou Technique of my Han Family."

Han Chi looked up at the sky outside and smiled slightly.

Thank you, Uncle.

Nalan Chenfeng bowed respectfully, and the last trace of worry in his heart vanished without a trace.

Since Han Chi is the head of the Han Family, he wouldn't let the matter slip by without a reason.

"Moon Girl, take Chenfeng downstairs to rest. Go."

Han Chi turned his gaze to Han Yue and said gently.

"Yes, Father."

Han Yue responded and looked up at Nalan Chenfeng, her clear, beautiful eyes filled with tenderness.

"Come with me."

Nalan Chenfeng nodded and followed Han Yue outside.

Han Xue glanced at Han Yue, then at Nalan Chenfeng, pursed her red lips, and quickly followed.

"Sister, wait for me!"

The three of them walked through the corridor outside the main hall, followed a bluestone path eastward, passed through several courtyards, and finally stopped in front of a quiet little courtyard.

"This used to be my place. Later, I moved in with Xue'er, so it became empty. Servants have been cleaning it regularly. Since you're in the Han Family, you can stay here."

Han Yue pushed open the courtyard gate and stepped aside to let Nalan Chenfeng enter first.

Nalan Chenfeng walked into the courtyard, glanced around, and nodded.

"Yes, it's very quiet."

Compared to the courtyard where he and Han Yue lived in the Inner Academy, this place was much larger, but it still exuded elegance and was suitable for quiet meditation.

"Sister, you—"

Han Xue stood at the courtyard gate, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Han Yue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she reached out and gently flicked her younger sister's forehead.

"You brat, what are you thinking? I brought Chenfeng here to rest, it's not like it's anything else—"

"I don't think I... I didn't say anything."

Han Xue rubbed her forehead, realizing she had misunderstood, and her pretty face flushed red with embarrassment.

She had initially thought that her sister and this person would both stay here, but now it seemed that her worries were somewhat unnecessary.

"Yue'er, our relationship is already settled, so it shouldn't be a problem if we live together."

Nalan Chenfeng turned and glanced at Han Xue, then turned his gaze to Han Yue, and said with a smile.

Along the way, with Han Tian and Han Su, two elders of the Han Family, present, he could only talk to Han Yue at most, and could only look at her but not eat her.

This feeling wasn't very comfortable.

"Never mind, Xue'er and I haven't seen each other for years. I'll spend this month with her."

Han Yue Yuebing's beautiful, fair face flushed crimson, but she ultimately couldn't let go of her pride and agreed to Nalan Chenfeng's request.

Nalan Chenfeng still too young; it's not the right time.

Han Yue's words were clearly very appropriate, and the reason she gave was impeccable.

"All right--"

With a sigh of disappointment, Nalan Chenfeng found a nearby room and began meditating and cultivating, leaving the two sisters outside still in a daze.

"Snort--"

"This guy, he'll ignore you if he can't get the better of you—"

The next morning, the sun rose.

Nalan Chenfeng finished his cultivation and walked out of his room, where he saw Han Yue already waiting in the courtyard.

Today, Han Yue was still wearing that silver-white dress, her long silver-white hair tied up with a jade hairpin, revealing a section of her fair and jade-like neck. She looked like an ice lotus blooming in the morning.

"Have you been waiting long?"

Nalan Chenfeng stepped forward and naturally reached out to embrace Han Yue's slender waist.

"Not long ago, just arrived."

Han Yue didn't flinch; instead, she snuggled closer to Nalan Chenfeng, her clear, beautiful eyes filled with adoration.

Actually, she also longed for the person in front of her, but in the Han Family, she had to consider her reputation and maintain some reserve.

"Father has already gone to the Dou Technique Pavilion to wait for you, let's go there too."

"Um."

The two walked side by side through the winding corridors of the Han Residence. The Han Family members they encountered along the way all turned their heads to look at them with a sense of awe.

Yesterday, the news of the eldest daughter's engagement to a young Dou Wang spread throughout the Han Family.

"Go and cultivate diligently!"

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under those gazes, Han Yue's beautiful cheeks flushed red, and she coldly rebuked them.

The Han Family members all bowed their heads and dispersed, none daring to disobey Han Yue.

Without a doubt, Han Yue wields considerable influence among the younger generation of the Han Family.

"Yue'er, you still haven't told me the name of this low-level Dou Technique from your Han Family. Is there some secret behind it?"
