Seeing that she truly wasn't angry, Lu Hai was somewhat at a loss for words, "Young Master Shen must be very angry." If Pei Qin were also conferred the title of County Magistrate, even if it's just an honorary title, no obstacles would remain for Young Master Shen to marry her.
Pei Qin laughed lightly at the thought of Shen Songming hopping mad.
Shen Songming wasn't just upset, he was beside himself with frustration. He had already had people testing double cropping rice and, if it were successful next year, he planned to secure a title for Pei Qin. Then, marrying her would be no issue at all. He wouldn't have to pressure Pei Qin to acknowledge some unknown noble as her parents and then marry him in a roundabout way. But Ms. Liangsan had come out of nowhere, cutting off his path abruptly.
