Chapter 347 Almost Engaged



Chapter 347 Almost Engaged

Xu Yingying thought for a moment and asked, "What kind of person is your Master? Why did the couple get so excited about a random girl appearing in front of your Master?"

This is also what Xu Yingying is most puzzled about. She originally thought that Wang Jingrui's parents would be very disgusted after seeing her, and would put pressure on Wang Jingrui to stay away from her, but she didn't expect that the couple would not play by the rules.

Seeing that Xu Yingying was asking about Wang Jingrui, the servant breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and explained, "Miss, you don't know that although our young master is young, he has long reached the age to get married. However, there have been no girls around him since he was a child. At first, the master and the mistress didn't think it was a big deal, and just thought that the young master was still young."

"But when the young master grew up, his playmates gradually got married. Those who didn't at least had girls they liked. But our young master was still the same. He didn't seem to have any interest in girls."

The servants had gossipy looks on their faces.

Xu Yingying also casually grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them. "So, Wang Jingrui was not interested in women before."

"That's exactly what the young lady said." The servant nodded in surprise. "So the master and the mistress are particularly concerned about the young master's life. Over the years, the mistress has arranged many girls around the young master, but almost every girl has never stayed with him for more than three months."

"The shortest one even cried and shouted that she didn't want to follow you anymore after only seven days. Madam, there was nothing we could do. We could only let things take their course and hope that you would change your mind one day."

"So that's it." Xu Yingying understood and realized why the couple was so excited. However, although she could understand the parents' concerns about their children, that did not mean that Xu Yingying was willing to sacrifice herself for the family. The servant's words made Xu Yingying more determined to escape.

"Girl, please listen to my advice. I can see that the young master is very concerned about you. I have never seen the young master treat any girl like this. He sends you these new things every day for you to enjoy."

"Besides, if the young lady marries our young master, this Gucheng Villa will belong to the young lady and our young master in the future, right? The master and the mistress only have our young master as their child, so they will definitely not treat the young lady badly in the future."

The servant persuaded him earnestly. He had just heard Xu Yingying's refusal. He could see that Xu Yingying was very resistant to Wang Jingrui.

"Get out." Xu Yingying suddenly lost interest and asked the man to leave.

Only after the servants left and the door was closed did Xu Yingying breathe a sigh of relief. She had left the servants here just now to buy herself some time. Xu Yingying was determined to leave here. The door was not closed from the time the Wang couple came in until they left.

Taking this opportunity, Xu Yingying quietly observed the situation outside for a while. However, looking out from inside the house, Xu Yingying's vision was limited and she couldn't see the whole picture. Fortunately, she asked the ghosts around her to help her in advance and go out to investigate the surrounding situation.

After the servants left, Xu Yingying summoned the ghost out. "What's the situation outside?" Xu Yingying asked anxiously.

The ghost gave Xu Yingying a general description of the surrounding terrain, and then he said with a little concern: "Girl, this Gucheng Villa is very large. Even if you escape from here, it is very easy to get lost in the villa."

"You don't have to worry about this. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is in the hands of God. I will definitely not sit here and wait for death." Xu Yingying rubbed her hands excitedly, ready to do a big job in the evening.

Finally, it was night. Xu Yingying carefully pried open the door. The servant outside seemed a little tired and was sleeping against the wall. Seeing this, Xu Yingying carefully crawled out from the crack, muttering as she crawled, "It's a good thing I'm thin, otherwise I would have to stay here for this little while."

After finally getting out, Xu Yingying couldn't wait to run out in the dark. As expected, the outside world was just as the ghost said, complicated and full of small paths. Before Xu Yingying had turned a few corners, she found that she was completely lost.

But unfortunately, Wang Jingrui discovered that Xu Yingying had escaped at this time, and sent many guards to look for Xu Yingying. In desperation, Xu Yingying hid in the rockery next to her, hoping that no one would find her here, but Xu Yingying was naive in the end.

She was pulled out of the rockery by Wang Jingrui himself. "Xiaoyan, I told you not to leave my side."

Wang Jingrui is now extremely paranoid about Xu Yingying.

"Wang Jingrui, let me go. There is absolutely no way I will marry you. I already have someone I like!" Xu Yingying struggled hard, but still couldn't escape being locked up.

After that, Xu Yingying tried several more times, but was taken back by Wang Jingrui every time without exception. In the end, Wang Jingrui directly threatened Xu Yingying with the lives of those servants. Xu Yingying had no choice. After all, she was kind-hearted and could not bear to see those people die because of her.

But as the wedding date set by Wang's parents was getting closer, Xu Yingying became more and more anxious. Suddenly, Xu Yingying thought of a bad idea, which was not a good idea, to go on a hunger strike. Xu Yingying thought, Wang Jingrui cared about her, so she wanted to see if Wang Jingrui would still force her if she was about to die.

After making up her mind, Xu Yingying began her hunger strike plan. She never touched the food brought by the servants, but only drank a little water to make herself not feel too uncomfortable.

When the servants saw Xu Yingying starting a hunger strike, they became very panicked. Wang Jingrui had given a death order. If Xu Yingying had any accident again, none of them would be able to survive.

Xu Yingying went on a hunger strike for three days, which eventually alarmed Wang Jingrui. Wang Jingrui came to Xu Yingying anxiously, and seeing her obviously thin face, he became anxious.

"Xiaoyan, what are you going to do?" Wang Jingrui's worried voice came, and Xu Yingying opened her eyes lazily. She really didn't mean it, but this hunger strike was a little too unbearable.

"Wang Jingrui, I don't want to marry you. Don't even think about getting married unless I die." Xu Yingying's weak voice entered Wang Jingrui's ears.

He froze. He had never expected Xu Yingying to go on a hunger strike to reject the marriage. However, he was also afraid that Xu Yingying would die because of this, so he agreed without thinking, "Okay, I'll tell Dad and Mom that we won't get married for now, okay? I won't lock you up anymore. I'll take you out for a walk when you feel better, okay?"
