However, the way White Star Taoist behaved didn't seem like it was just a verbal agreement.
The crucial point is that even if they were to get engaged, who has ever heard of the woman's side proposing first? Look at the time just before, it was Luo Yihong who personally invited Yang Chen. If it were about Luo Yihong's marriage, shouldn't someone else invite Yang Chen?
Luo Yihong's personal visit made all the difference. What did it represent? It meant that once the news spread, she Luo Yihong would become the one chasing after him. After marriage, she would have to be obedient to Yang Chen, and White Star Taoist certainly understood that, right?
Elder Qian Gong was not foolish; he knew that things were not that simple, absolutely not!
That's why he was somewhat anxious. He wasn't afraid of White Star Taoist telling him the truth, but rather having him go in circles.
