Murong Zhenguo's words were naturally intentional.

On the one hand, he really admired Lu Chen very much. He was good at both civil and military affairs, had a bright future, but also had a very good character.

Looking at the entire Dragon Kingdom, there are only a handful of such young geniuses.

If the other party can be his grandson-in-law, then the General's Mansion will be protected in the future.

On the other hand, it was for the sake of my granddaughter Murong Xue.

This child is kind-hearted and very simple. He is easily deceived and needs a strong backer to protect him.

Lu Chen is undoubtedly the best choice.

Together, the two of them can be regarded as a talented man and a beautiful woman.

At this moment, Murong Xue stood quietly at the back without making a sound.

Her pretty face was a little red, showing both shyness and anticipation.

She was waiting for Lu Chen's answer and hoped to hear the answer she wanted.

"Thank you for your love, old general, but a commoner like me is really not worthy of Miss Murong." Lu Chen shook his head and declined.

"Little guy, I know your identity very well. Don't say such unreasonable words. I just want to ask, do you have a good impression of my Xue'er?" Murong Zhenguo asked again.

"Old General, Miss Murong and I are just ordinary friends, nothing more." Lu Chen answered decisively.

"normal friend?"

Hearing this, Murong Zhenguo couldn't help but frown slightly.

Why does this sound a little awkward?

Didn’t we still think of her as my sister before? Why did she suddenly become a stranger?

When she heard the words "just friends", Murong Xue's expression froze, and her eyes were filled with disappointment.

"Little guy, why don't you think about it again?" Murong Zhenguo was a little unwilling.

In order to fight for his granddaughter's happiness, he was willing to risk everything.

"Old General, it's not sweet to force yourself, so let's forget it."

Lu Chen shook his head again, his eyes very firm.

"Oh...that's all, I won't get involved in the affairs of you young people."

Seeing that his persuasion was fruitless, Murong Zhenguo no longer forced himself.

"Old General, I think I have nothing to do here. I'll take my leave now."

Lu Chen bowed respectfully and prepared to leave directly.

"Brother Lu Chen..."

Murong Xue couldn't help shouting.

"Um?"

Lu Chen looked back and said with some confusion: "Miss Murong, what's the matter?"

"Brother Lu Chen, I misunderstood you before. I'm sorry. I sincerely apologize to you."

Murong Xue looked guilty, and bowed deeply as she spoke.

"Miss Murong, you didn't do anything wrong, and I never blamed you, so you don't need to apologize." Lu Chen shook his head.

Some things have nothing to do with right or wrong, they are purely a matter of trust. Murong Xue has made his choice and he has no dissatisfaction.

"Brother Lu Chen, can we meet again?"

Murong Xue pinched the corner of her clothes, a little nervous and a little hopeful.

Lu Chen behaved very politely and gentlemanly.

But for some reason, she always felt that the other person had become strange and indifferent.

The former Xueer has become Miss Murong.

The change of title represents the distance between the two parties.

"We are destined to meet each other and say goodbye."

Lu Chen smiled faintly and walked straight out of the general's mansion.

"Brother Lu Chen..."

Looking at the departing figure, Murong Xue felt empty in her heart, as if something important was slowly passing away.

"Girl, what happened between you two?"

Murong Zhenguo couldn't help but asked curiously.

"I......"

Murong Xue hesitated for a moment, and finally told the story briefly.

After listening, Murong Zhenguo couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Girl, why are you so confused? You can't tell right from wrong? You firmly believe in the villain's slander, but you use bad words to those who help you, you, you, you

...You are really going to piss me off!"
