Chapter 90 Break off the engagement?
"Little sister, why are you so tall now?"

"Nonsense, it's been two years. A radish planted in the ground grows faster than me." Shen Zhizhi pouted.

"Also, why are you so dark now? You look like a coal ball. It's really ugly."

Shen Zhizhi couldn't help but complain about her brother Shen Xuanang, but she was still very happy in her heart.

"Hey, little girl, I haven't seen you for two years, and your words are getting more and more unpleasant."

Shen Xuanang slapped Shen Zhizhi on the head, and Shen Zhizhi kicked him in return.

Seeing that the brother and sister started fighting as soon as they met, Shen Yuwen and Xu Rong were very relieved.

Their son and daughter have grown up, how can they not be happy as parents?

"Okay, okay, let's stop standing here and go back to the living room to talk."

Xu Rong held her son's hand, and the family went to the meeting room. Butler Feng and some servants from the Shen family left on their own accord.

"Son, what have you been doing every day in the army these two years?"

Xu Rong took her son to sit down and asked about his recent situation in the past two years.

"Well, it's nothing actually. I just stay in the army for training every day. It's very boring." Shen Xuanang replied.

"Have you ever gone out of the wall, outside the wall?" Xu Rong asked again.

"I've only gone out a few times, and always with a large group of people. I would patrol outside and then come back." Shen Xuanang explained.

In fact, what he said was a complete lie.

In the past two years, Shen Xuanang has served as the captain of the hunting team. Almost every day, he goes outside the wall to clear out the ferocious beasts and patrol the situation outside the wall. Every day, Shen Xuanang faces danger.

Once, they encountered an A-level ferocious beast. If they hadn't received timely rescue, their team would have been wiped out.

Of course, he would never tell this to his mother.

"Is that so? Then I won't worry anymore. During the two years you were away, I was worried every day that you might get into danger. By the way, now that you're back, you don't have to go over the wall anymore, right?"

"Of course not. We in Longguo no longer need to guard the wall, so our troops have been withdrawn one after another." Shen Xuanang nodded.

"That's good, that's good. It saves mom from having to worry every day."

"By the way, Mom, when I came in, I saw that our Shen family had tied a lot of big red flowers and pasted a lot of festive things. What's going on?" Shen Xuanang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Oh, it's like this, your younger sister is engaged to someone." Xu Rong explained.

"Engaged to someone? Who? Which boy?" Shen Xuanang asked in surprise.

He knew his younger sister too well. Given this girl's temper and vision, she would never compromise unless she liked something.

"That young man is not from a family in the imperial capital. I heard that he is just from a small place. However, this young man won the championship for our Dragon Country in the Summoner Competition." Xu Rong explained.

"Won the championship for our Long country? But wasn't it my fiancée who won the championship for our Long country?" Shen Xuanang asked puzzledly.

He also saw the newspaper published by the Court of Arbitration in the army.

The newspaper clearly stated that Lin Muxue from the Lin family, as the captain of the team, won the game for Longguo.

In response, Xu Rong continued to explain: "Son, you don't know that this matter is an inside story of the Court of Arbitration. Only a few people know about it, including the senior officials of the Court of Arbitration, some dignitaries, and some big families in our imperial capital. Some small families in the imperial capital have no right to know about this matter."

"Oh, so that's it." Shen Xuanang understood.

Then he added: "Then this young man is indeed extraordinary and worthy of my Shen Xuanang's sister."

Shen Xuanang understood very well the situation of Dragon Country in recent years. The person who could lead Dragon Country to win the Summoner's Championship must be an extraordinary genius.

Thinking of this, Shen Xuanang asked again: "Mom, what does this young man look like? What's his name?" "Well, this young man seems to be called Xu Shisan. As for what he looks like, your father and I have never seen him, but your younger sister has."

In fact, Xu Shisan's identity is kept very confidential, and few people know it. Even if some people know some inside information and know that there is someone else who led Long Country to win the championship, very few people actually know that it was Xu Shisan.

At this time, Shen Xuanang looked at his younger sister Shen Zhizhi again: "Little sister, what does this boy called Xu Shisan look like? Do you like him?"

"Well, how does it look?"

When Shen Zhizhi heard his elder brother ask this, he tilted his head, counted on his fingers, and replied:

"Just a little more handsome than you."

Shen Xuanang: “.”

"higher."

Shen Xuanang: “.”

"Whiter."

Shen Xuanang: “.”

"Be more interesting."

Shen Xuanang: “.”

"Alright, alright, shut up. Bro knows. So do you like him or not?"

Seeing his little sister praising him so much, Shen Xuanang really wanted to meet this boy.

"Do you like him? It's okay, I wouldn't say I hate him." Shen Zhizhi replied.

After hearing this, Shen Xuanang could still accept it.

He knew his little sister's personality and temper very well. Since she didn't hate him, it meant that she must have some feelings for the young man.

Thinking of this, Shen Xuanang became even more curious about what this young man looked like.

"By the way, Mom and Dad, now that I'm back, should we propose to the Lin family?" Shen Xuanang suddenly asked.

"this."

When they heard their son ask this, the couple looked at each other in confusion.

How should I explain this to my son?

"Mom, what's wrong? What's with that expression on your face?"

Seeing his parents hesitating and not knowing how to answer, Shen Xuanang couldn't help but frowned.

"Well, son, I don't know how to tell you. It was some time ago that your grandpa Lin came to our Shen family." Xu Rong hesitated, not knowing how to say it.

"Mom, just tell me straight, what happened to Grandpa Lin coming to our house?"

"That's right. Your grandpa Lin came to our house and called off the engagement." Finally, Xu Rong told her son.

"Call off the engagement?" Shen Xuanang's face suddenly turned cold.

"Why? Why did Grandpa Lin cancel the engagement? Didn't Grandpa Lin and my grandfather agree on this matter in the first place?" Shen Xuanang couldn't help but ask.

Seeing that the matter could no longer be concealed, Xu Rong also knew that she had to tell the truth to her son.

"At first, we didn't know why Mr. Lin broke off the engagement. Later we found out that the reason why Mr. Lin broke off the engagement between you and Mu Xue was because he wanted Mu Xue to marry someone else."
