Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 214 - 213: He Can’t Be Unable, He Just Doesn’t Want To
In the vast world of consciousness, Shen Han’s long sword intertwined with the human figure.
Desperate Intent, so this is the true Desperate Intent.
Shen Han stepped on the ground, countless sword shadows by his side converging into the sword in his hand.
The figure in front of him shattered like fragments, scattering all over the ground.
On the verge of Fifth Grade, I seem to have almost touched it.
Just a chance away.
...
Capital City, Immortal Jade Tavern.
Shen Lingsheng had been staying here for nearly twenty days.
After the news of Shen Han defeating Su Jinyu spread, Shen Qingshan forced him to come and talk to Shen Han.
Using blood relation to see if they could close their relationship a bit.
Shen Lingsheng was unwilling in his heart but did not dare to go against his father’s arrangement.
When he arrived in the Capital City, it happened that Shen Han had gone to Yexuan Country.
During this time, Shen Lingsheng naturally stayed temporarily in the Capital City.
Actually, when he heard that Shen Han was not in the capital, Shen Lingsheng felt a trace of relief.
Over the years, he had never shown Shen Han a good face.
But now, they actually wanted him to bow his head in front of Shen Han and say some soft words.
To be honest, Shen Lingsheng found it hard to accept.
For more than twenty days, Shen Lingsheng stayed directly at the tavern.
He got along quite well with Shen Ye.
Shen Ye would come to chat with his third uncle whenever he had free time.
Especially in the art of military strategy, Shen Ye still needed Shen Lingsheng’s guidance.
The future of the Shen Family would undoubtedly be passed on to Shen Ye.
Coming from generations of military service, Shen Ye had to know a bit about military strategy.
After knowing that Shen Qingshan forced Shen Lingsheng to come, Shen Ye came up with an idea, one that did not require Shen Lingsheng to bow to Shen Han to achieve his purpose...
Capital City, Rain Listening Pavilion.
Su Jinyu had been dazed since yesterday.
Her delicate body lightly leaned against the railing, and the water droplets falling from the eaves looked more and more irritating today.
"Miss, you’ve been watching here all night..."
Qingcao carried some snacks over, a worried look in her eyes.
Whenever her lady had something troubling her, she more or less knew about it.
Even if Su Jinyu didn’t want to confide in her, Qingcao could still guess some of it.
But today, as her close maid, she didn’t know anything.
"Miss, at least have a taste, aren’t these snacks your favorite..."
"Just leave them there, I don’t have an appetite."
Su Jinyu replied indifferently without even turning her head.
Her eyes remained fixed on the eaves before her, watching the water droplets trickle down, the sound of drip, drip echoing out.
Usually, when Su Jinyu heard the rain, it inexplicably lifted her mood.
But today, the sound of the rain felt dull, making her uneasy and anxious.
"Miss, just tell Qingcao what’s bothering you...
Is it still about losing to Shen Han?
It was just one loss, next time you face him, you can surely surpass him.
Your talent hasn’t disappeared, nor has it faded.
Peak Master Shi has said, even if you lost this time, your Sword Dao talent is still one of the best among the young generation of Great Wei."
Qingcao gently tugged at Su Jinyu’s sleeve, softly comforting her.
But this comfort had no effect.
"Miss, losing to Shen Han is already in the past, if you continue to fret over this..."
Qingcao hadn’t finished speaking when Su Jinyu suddenly spoke.
"It’s not over, I haven’t fulfilled the condition he proposed..."
As she said this, Su Jinyu’s heart twisted.
The maid Qingcao was taken aback, only reacting after a while.
"Wasn’t Shen Han’s condition just to get a maid’s contract?
Did he change his mind midway?
This person really has no integrity, going back on his word."
Qingcao was a bit angry, she didn’t like Shen Han in the first place.
Hearing this from Su Jinyu made her impression of Shen Han even worse.
But before Qingcao finished, Su Jinyu shook her head repeatedly.
"Shen Han did not go back on his word, he didn’t change his mind, he hasn’t even urged me...
The reason it isn’t done is that I haven’t obtained the maid’s contract.
It’s not Shen Han’s issue, it’s mine..."
Upon hearing this, Qingcao was stunned.
She never would have thought it would be this reason.
"Miss, it’s just a maid’s contract after all...
Could it be that this person isn’t a maid, but someone special?
Is Shen Han setting us up?"
The maid Qingcao continued to speculate, but regardless of her guesses, Su Jinyu kept shaking her head.
"I have already looked into it, the girl named Cailing is just a maid at the Shen Mansion.
She used to take care of Shen Han back when he was at the Shen Mansion, and their master-servant relationship is very good.
Now Cailing is hiding at the Yun Family’s residence, theoretically, her contract was sold to the Shen Family, so she should be at the Shen Mansion.
Shen Han now wants the contract just to give this maid a legitimate status.
To prevent her from being taken back by the Shen Family someday."
Qingcao nodded slightly: "From this, it seems Shen Han has some conscience...
But even so, Cailing is just a maid in the end.
Could it be that you can’t get it if you ask?
If we go to Young Master Ye, if he steps in, surely the contract can be gotten by the next day."
Upon hearing this, Su Jinyu’s expression turned even more unpleasant.
"I already went to see Brother Ye, he said he can’t make the decision..."
With these words, Qingcao was stunned.
"Young Master Ye said he can’t make the decision?
He is the Shen Family’s prodigy, the future heir, how can he not make the decision?
It’s not a huge matter, just a maid."
The maid Qingcao frowned deeply, honestly, she was starting to get a little angry.
"Brother Ye said, that maid is a servant of the third branch of the family, he’s a son of the main branch, he can’t decide..."
"How can that be...
Miss, he’s Shen Ye, how can he not decide?
Forget just one maid, even if it’s every maid’s contract in the Shen Family, he should be able to get them.
There’s no way he can’t decide, he just doesn’t want to..."
Saying this, Qingcao also realized she might have spoken too bluntly.
She paused a bit.
Somehow, today, Qingcao did not want to speak well of Shen Ye.
"Miss, it’s just a maid’s contract, there’s no way he can’t get it.
Is it something between you and Young Master Ye?"
Su Jinyu, hearing this, thought for a while but in the end just shook her head.
"Miss, should I go to Young Master Ye to clarify?
Ask him what he really means, could he really be thinking of sending you to Shen Han?"
Saying this, maid Qingcao intended to leave.
By her side, Su Jinyu reached out and grabbed her.
"Qingcao, don’t go, Brother Ye might have his own difficulties..."
"Miss, you can fool Qingcao, but don’t fool yourself.
It’s just a maid, what difficulty can there be?"
