Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

Chapter 162: Confessing Identity

Ying Tianchen became a little anxious when he saw that the two hadn't responded for a long time.

"Uncle Yun and Aunt Yun, please forgive me for my rudeness. There are really no elders in my family, and no other relatives who can do it for me. I have no choice but to discuss this matter with you two in person. Please understand."

Yun Huaiyuan said hurriedly, "It's okay. We just didn't react in time."

"What does Uncle Yun and Aunt Yun mean?" Ying Tianchen asked nervously.

Yun Huaiyuan said, "Chen Tian, ​​we are of course 100% satisfied with you. However, apart from knowing that your parents and elders are gone, we don't know anything else, such as what you do specifically, where your home is, etc."

Ying Tianchen understood what this meant. It meant that he didn't know his situation well enough.

He said, "I'm sorry, my identity is a bit special, and I haven't been able to tell you before. Now that I sincerely want to marry Miss Yun, I don't plan to hide it anymore."

Then, he told everyone in detail that he was the King of the South.

After saying that, he confessed, "Two years ago, at the bottom of the cliff, it wasn't me who saved Miss Yun, but Miss Yun who saved my life."

"Ah? This...you are the King, the King, the King of the South?"

As he said this, Yun Huaiyuan was about to pull Xi down to kneel. The two were really shocked and couldn't speak clearly.

Ying Tianchen hurried forward and supported the two of them.

"Uncle Yun, Aunt Yun, please don't be so polite. You are Xier's parents, and you are also my elders. I hope you can treat me the same way you treated me in the past."

He did not call himself the King because he wanted them to feel less restrained.

Yun Huaiyuan sneered. This is the prince, how could he remain the same?

Seeing this, Ying Tianchen sighed and said, "I didn't want to tell you my true identity before because I was afraid that you would feel alienated from me. I really hope that you can treat me as a junior, or as your future son-in-law."

Seeing that he said this, and judging from his expression, he was speaking from the heart, Xi clapped her legs and said with a smile, "Okay, then let's do it just like before."

Ying Tianchen smiled, "Thank you, auntie."

"Chen Tian, ​​no, that is, King Nan..."

"Aunt, just call me Tianchen." Ying Tianchen corrected hurriedly.

"Okay, Tianchen, you should know that our girl Xi had been engaged and then broken off the engagement before, right?" Xi asked cautiously.

Ying Tianchen nodded, "I know this."

"You don't mind, then?"

"Uncle Yun, Aunt Yun, don't worry. I won't mind this."

After a pause, he continued, "To be honest with you two, I was seriously injured at the bottom of the cliff. Miss Yun saved me and treated my wounds. We had already had physical contact."

When he said this, his ears turned red.

"From that time on, I considered Miss Yun my future princess. At that time, I also left a token for Miss Yun, a jade pendant that my mother left for the future princess."

Yun Huaiyuan and Xi looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

They both understood that their daughter had not told anyone.

Ying Tianchen continued, "But later I heard that Miss Yun had an engagement, so I never showed up. It wasn't until Miss Yun broke off the engagement that I went to Xiemu County."

The two of them were stunned.

"Oh, I see. So you went to Xiemu County specifically for this matter?" Xi slapped her thigh and said excitedly.

"Yes, aunt." Ying Tianchen replied with a smile.

“Haha—Okay!”

Now Yun Huaiyuan and Xi both felt relieved. They also truly felt Ying Tianchen's sincerity. But...

"Tianchen, you are a prince, but we are just farmers. This is totally inappropriate, I'm afraid..."

What are they afraid of? Without Xi saying it explicitly, Ying Tianchen also knows what they are worried about.

"Uncle Yun, don't worry. I don't have any prejudices against family backgrounds. I just know that I like Miss Yun. I can make the decision on this matter myself."

"Moreover, if Miss Yun marries into the Nanwang Mansion, she won't have her parents-in-law to serve her, and she won't have other relatives to deal with. If she marries in, she can be the head of the household, and she can still live the same as before."

"I swear, from now on, there will only be one mistress in the Nan Palace..."
