445: C445 It's All Your Fault

C445 It's All Your Fault

The old man shook his head with a smile, "Little brother doesn't know that this jade was passed to her by her grandmother. It was also worn by Xue'er since she was young, so I have no right to take it back. "Also, this jade pendant actually has another meaning …"

Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment before his expression became even more doubtful. "This jade pendant is also the jade that Xue'er is engaged to."

He did not know that this jade pendant had this kind of meaning, but there was an extremely embarrassed look on his face. In that case, this jade pendant was something he could not accept, and just as he was about to teach it to the old man, the old man continued, "Xue'er must have had a good impression of you by entrusting this girl to you, and you accepted it at that time as well."

"There's no need to be anxious, little brother. I know that you don't know the reason behind this. Besides, Xue'er is still young. Cough cough, about this matter, it was only this year that we discovered it …"

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "The third prince of the Azure Cloud Empire wants to be engaged to our Han family. Only then did we learn that Xue'er has already given out her jade pendant, and after many attempts at understanding it, we finally understood that this jade pendant has another meaning. This jade pendant has been delivered to you."

The elder coughed dryly, "You can't give this jade to Xue'er on your own accord. Since you accepted it, returning it now is equivalent to giving it up, so you have to wait for Xue'er to take it back. Of course, this matter is also a matter for you youngsters."

Zhang Fan's eyes widened before he began to cough dryly. He really did not know what to say. If he had known that this jade pendant still had this kind of meaning, he definitely would not have accepted it.

Moreover, this meaning was somewhat similar to Wang Yao's. When he thought of Wang Yao, melancholy more or less appeared in his heart.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Also, I want to ask little brother for a favor." The old man hesitated for a moment.

This scene was very familiar. At this moment, a somewhat strange expression appeared on his face and he could not help but say, "Elder Han, it can't be that you want me to act Xue'er's fiance and then reject the prince's marriage, right?"

When Elder Han heard this, he was immediately surprised. His face revealed a little disbelief. "How did you know?"

Zhang Fan cleared his throat. There were so many coincidences in the world. Did she bump into him again?!

"Since little brother has guessed it, is it okay?" Elder Han asked after some hesitation.

"This …" Zhang Fan hesitated. However, at this moment, Su Qian said, "Big Brother Zhang, just help out!" In truth, she was very clear in her heart. If a girl married someone she disliked, how would that feel? She was a woman, so she understood that feeling the most.

Elder Han hesitated for a moment before saying, "Xue'er is still young and doesn't understand the relationship yet. I believe that if Xue'er meets someone she likes in the future, she will also take back the jade pendant from little brother. So little brother doesn't have to worry about this matter, but prince's engagement will be troublesome …"

Zhang Fan sighed. He felt more and more that the so-called imperial family had become chaotic. The marriage contract should be similar to Liu Ruyan's situation, right? They were both paving the way for him to inherit the throne, right?

Since the Han Family was based on the Azure Cloud Sect, it was naturally not easy to refuse. The old man once again spoke, "If we reject this matter, her grandmother will bring Xue Er to the Central Region …"

"Central State!" Zhang Fan was surprised after hearing this.

The old man nodded slightly, "Her grandmother was from the Central Region. She brought Xue Er with her this time to help Xue Er develop. But before that, this matter must be resolved." Saying that, he paused and glanced at Zhang Fan. Thinking of Zhang Fan's words earlier, he could not help but ask with doubt, "Why has little brother been to the Central Region as well?"

"Yes." Zhang Fan gently nodded his head and said, "I am from the Middle Kingdom."

The old man's face showed some surprise again. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Then about this matter …"

"En, alright." Zhang Fan didn't hesitate to agree. Actually, what troubled him the most right now was that jade pendant. At this moment, he didn't know what to do.

The old man's face lit up. He nodded heavily. "You don't want to see Xue Er? Come with me. Xue'er is in her room." With that, the old man left with his head.

Along the way, his heart also gradually calmed down. Perhaps it was as the old man had said, Xue'er didn't understand anything previously, and might meet someone she liked in the future. Perhaps, at that time, he would just give the jade pendant to Han Xue.

Didn't the old man say that her grandma would bring Xue Er to the Central Region? When that happened, it would be easy to find Xue Er. Also, if he asked, he might be able to give the jade to Xue Er.

After about ten minutes of walking, they arrived at the entrance of a small courtyard.

"Little brother, please allow Xue'er to stay here." The old man said with a smile.

Zhang Fan nodded and walked inside. However, at this time, a shadow ran out from inside and bumped into him.

"Ah!" At this moment, a girl's cry sounded out, and the silhouette of a person laid down on the back of the bed.

Zhang Fan was taken aback. He took a step forward and quickly embraced the figure in his arms.

"Are you okay?" Zhang Fan asked as he helped her up. At this time, Zhang Fan couldn't help but look at the girl and notice that she looked extremely familiar. Just as he was about to say something, the girl quickly pushed him away and said, "I'm fine." Then, she quickly ran outside as if she was extremely nervous.0

At this moment, Elder Han stood in front of the girl and said, "Girl, what are you running around for?"

Hearing the old man's words, Zhang Fan instantly understood what was going on. How could this young girl be so familiar with him? Wasn't that Xue'er?!

"Grandfather!" Han Xue saw that Elder Han had stopped her and recognized her, so she couldn't help but say this. Her voice seemed to carry some grievance as she turned around to look at Zhang Fan. "It's all your fault. If it wasn't for you, I would have run out a long time ago!"

It seemed that this girl did not recognize him, but in his heart, he was also somewhat praising her. At this moment, Han Xue looked slim and graceful, and her height was a bit taller than before; just as he had thought, she looked even more beautiful than before. Her delicate little face was white and tender, giving off a feeling as if she wanted to pinch him, perhaps Han Xue was wearing the clothes of a servant girl, but her innate beauty was not something that could be wrapped up.

At this time, Han Xue held the old man's arm and said coquettishly, "Grandfather, I don't want to marry him. Grandpa, let me go out. I want to go to the academy …"

The elder gave a helpless laugh before replying with a slight change in his expression, "What's wrong with the third prince? Also, why did you give the jade pendant your grandmother gave you to someone else without permission?"

After Han Xue heard this, her face reddened. At this time, the old man continued, "Do you like that person called Feng Ling?"

"Eh …." Zhang Fan coughed dryly.

"Yes." Han Xue seriously nodded her head at this moment and said, "Big brother Zhang is a very good person."

"Is that so?" The old man couldn't help but laugh. Then, he said, "Then why can't you recognize your Big Brother Zhang when you saw him, and even blame him?"

"Ah?" Han Xue was puzzled as she didn't understand what the old man meant.

"Xue'er!" Zhang Fan coughed dryly. The awkwardness on his face still hadn't disappeared, but it seemed like it was about time for her to take the initiative, right?

Hearing Zhang Fan's voice, Han Xue couldn't help but turn her head. Her gaze fell onto Zhang Fan. At this time, Zhang Fan said, "Why don't you recognize me?"

Han Xue was stunned for a moment. Her large eyes carefully examined Zhang Fan. An extremely joyous expression was revealed on her small face as she said, "Big brother Zhang."

Her small mouth moved and said, "Big Brother Zhang, I … I don't know it was you …" After saying this, she lowered her head with a blushing face. After she thought of something, her face became even redder, and her expression became extremely bashful.

Zhang Fan smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, Han Xue suddenly noticed her attire. With a cry of surprise, she covered her face and quickly ran inside.

Zhang Fan was stunned. 'Is that girl alright?'

At this moment, the old man smiled and said, "Wait a moment, that girl will come out soon as well!"

Zhang Fan nodded slightly, but didn't say anything else.

After around twenty minutes or so, the door opened again. Han Xue changed into a long blue dress and walked out, and her hair could also be dressed up. At this time, she looked even more cute.

It had to be said that over these two years, Han Xue had indeed changed greatly. In an instant, it was not good for her to be able to recognize this girl, no?

Han Xue walked up and stole a glance at Zhang Fan before lowering her head. Zhang Fan couldn't help but praise her, "Xue'er, you look even better now than before!"
