Mo Qingze valued Shen Ji and knew he had to ask some things clearly; otherwise, if Shen Ji's family already had arrangements, wouldn't Mo's rash disclosure be embarrassing for himself?
Upon hearing Shen Ji's counter-question, Mo Qingze smiled and said, "Naturally, it concerns the lifelong matter of Yun Jin! I had heard before that you were yet unmarried, and now that you have become a Scholar, you have also reached the marrying age, hence the question."
"This..."
Since Shen Ji came to his senses, he had devoted himself to studying the sage's books and never concerned himself with matters of men and women. Now, when Mo Qingze brought it up, he felt somewhat uneasy, and yet unwittingly, the image of a young girl and her bell-like laughter surfaced in his mind.
Seeing Shen Ji's absent-minded expression, Mo Qingze's heart sank: Could it be that his family really had made arrangements? Or had he taken a liking to a girl from some family?
