Rebirth of the Great Favor: Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Intentional Matchmaking Original translation is from tenderflower's blog.

Since you know who he is then don’t give birth to the same thought as in the previous life. Don’t use him as a life-saving straw when you are desperate and don’t regard purgatory as the last ray of life.

Shen Zhonghua looked at Qiqi with these thoughts in his heart.

Since rebirth, he had always been afraid. He wasn’t afraid that he wasn’t able to redeem her because Qiqi always refused to forgive him, but he was afraid of separating from her through life and death again.

Although no one forced her in this life, she found her biological parents, and the people in the general’s residence could protect her through wealth, but he was still more worried than relieved......

On that day, Shen Zhonghua could see that Qiqi was sitting on pins and needles. He only wanted to see her but unexpectedly he made things difficult for her. Not long after, he “freed” her and left. He originally wanted to make progress step by step, let Qiqi put down her guard, and accept him again, but he didn’t expect to overestimate his patience.

Of course, if it wasn’t for Bai Jue’s interference.

Bai Jue was older than Shen Zhonghua. After the Dongzhi Festival, he was already in his thirtieth. The emperor couldn’t help worrying about his marriage. He was the prime minister after all and his marriage wasn’t just well-matched in terms of social status, furthermore political relationships. The general had been loyal to the country for generations and the emperor trusted them a lot. He originally wanted to match Shen Zhonghua and the general’s young miss together, but last time he deliberately had Shen Zhongming asked. Shen Zhonghua’s intention seemed to depend on the young lady’s wishes.

But Imperial Concubine Chen understood from the side that Su Tanning apparently had no intention of his son Shen Zhonghua.

Looking at the Su family, the emperor didn’t want to force them. Since he couldn’t match Shen Zhonghua then matched Bai Jue, a man with the same political integrity and ability. It was a perfect match. What was more, Great General Su was also very respectful to Bai Jue. He didn’t care about ages and called him a friend. Hence the emperor intentionally matched Bai Jue and Qiqi together, which was later followed by the outing trip.

The so-called outing was just a chance encounter arranged by everyone. Except for Qiqi, everyone knew well.

It was just that one didn’t expect Qiqi and the “coincidence” Bai Jue hadn’t say a few words, Shen Zhonghua also came here “coincidentally”.

“Miss Su, long time no see.” Shen Zhonghua’s eyes toward Qiqi were profound. They even had the feeling of breaking through adultery. This made Qiqi very uncomfortable and unconsciously wanted to avoid his gaze.

Qiqi slandered silently: “What long time no see. He clearly came last night secretly.”

Shen Zhonghua’s gaze fell between Qiqi’s hair. The original cold smile that others always see softened in an instant. Bai Jue followed his gaze and found that he was staring at the vivid and lifelike Queen of the Night Flower hairpin between Qiqi’s hair. It looked a little fascinating.

Qiqi was stared at by this kind of gaze so she naturally noticed it too. She reached out to touch her hair, touched the hairpin, and then understood.

This hairpin was left in her room after the Mid-Autumn banquet by Shen Zhonghua. She casually put it in the box on the dressing table. When she was dressing up this morning, the servant girl matched the Queen of the Night Flower with the embroidered white silk skirt and took it to her. Because Qiqi didn’t pay much attention to her appearance or dressing, she didn’t notice it. She didn’t know if Shen Zhonghua misunderstood it. If she’d known earlier she would throw this hairpin away.

He had never given her anything in their previous life. Now, she had a little obsession with what he left for her in this life. She even subconsciously kept it.

Qiqi was a little sad and this sadness inevitably made Shen Zhonghua feel pain.

The Su family originally wanted to see Qiqi’s thoughts. Although they were optimistic about Bai Jue, only if the daughter nodded then would they act. They originally wanted to let the two of them have a preliminary understanding through this coincidence, but they didn’t expect Shen Zhonghua to come so the atmosphere became a little strange.

The third brother had some contact with Shen Zhonghua in the court, so he wanted to make an excuse and took Shen Zhonghua away so that his younger sister and Bai Jue could “understand” each other better. However, one didn’t expect Shen Zhonghua to start first and said bluntly “not discussing official affairs” and expressed profoundly that he wanted to chat about “personal matters” with Miss Su.

Qiqi came out of Prince Xuan’s palace. Although it was spread that she and Prince Xuan had an “intimate” relationship when she just returned to the general’s residence, Qiqi showed great indifference toward Prince Xuan. The Su family naturally ignored these rumors and severely punished those servants who let their tongues slip. But now it seemed......

Father Su and mother Su looked at each other. They probably understood Shen Zhonghua’s thoughts about their daughter.
