Rebirth: The Magic Doctor Girl - C16

“Now that I’m eight years old, when I’m old enough, my father will definitely find me a marriage that will help him ascend to the rank of an official. I definitely won’t agree to such a marriage, and my father won’t be able to force me, so, in order to give him an explanation, he will abandon me, break off all relations with me, and kick me out of the family. At that time, we’ll be free.”

Xiaotao shook her head. “Miss, this won’t do. If this happens, your reputation will be ruined. How are you going to get married in the future?”

Lee Miaoyin shrugged. “Men who treat me with sincerity will not bother with me. Men who treat me with concern would not treat me with sincerity. Why should I lower myself to him?”

Xiaotao felt that what she said was reasonable, but she also vaguely felt that something was amiss. However, she was unable to put her finger on what was amiss at the moment.

On the day of admission, the carriage carrying the four siblings arrived at the entrance of the academy.

At this moment, there were many carriages parked outside the White Deer Institute, as well as young masters and misses wearing new green robes. Each carriage was more luxurious than the last, and the attire they were wearing was more imposing than the last.

Lee Miaoyin’s group of four rode an extremely ordinary carriage. It was neither luxurious nor spacious. The clothes they wore were not even comparable to the clothes the servants wore.

Lee Miaoyu’s face turned red. She tried to drag Lee Miaoyin and the others into the academy, but they were stopped by someone else.

“Yo — isn’t this Li Assistant Prefectural Magistrate’s daughter? I heard that he got first place in the entrance examination this time. ” The young lady in red was only eleven or twelve years old. She was pretty, but she had a domineering expression on her face. Lee Miaoyin could see the shadow of Lee Miaoyu on her.

Lee Miaoyu hated it when people mentioned her name the most. Her eyes immediately turned red from anger, as she opened her eyes wide and was about to reply.

Someone shouted, “Third Young Master Qi is here.”

The domineering expression on the young lady in red’s face instantly disappeared as she ran outside with a flushed face.

The luxurious carriage slowly stopped, and the youth dressed in embroidered clothes slowly walked down. His deep eyes stared fixedly at the petite figure in the distance until she disappeared.

Laifu lowered his voice and said, “Young Master, it’s her.”

The youth nodded. He naturally knew it was her. These days, her small face would appear every night in his dreams. How could he recognize her wrongly? After searching for a long time, he didn’t expect to run into one of them here. The corner of his mouth hooked up into a faint smile, and his originally cold and handsome face instantly turned warm.

“Brother Qi, you’re here!” The girl in red leaped up to the front of her body. Her clear eyes were fixated on that handsome face, and the redness on her cheeks deepened.

He was the second son of Si Qizheng, Qi Hongxuan, the third oldest son of the family.

Qi Hongxuan glanced at the girl in red. The warmth on his face disappeared in a flash. His expression turned cold again. He grunted and left.

Lee Miaoyu was still standing on the spot, staring blankly at Qi Hongxuan approaching closer. Her heart was beating faster and faster, as if something blocked her throat, making her unable to say a single word.

It was only when that person slowly walked away that she finally regained her senses and realized that her siblings had long since disappeared.

Just as he was about to leave, he heard people talking about the youth behind him. He then slowed down his footsteps and listened attentively.

“Is he the young master of the Salt Transport Envoy Division?”

“Yes, although he is not the eldest son, he is highly valued at home. His grandfather is loyal to the marquis, and he is his favorite, and the son of the marquis is weak in body and has yet to have a heir. Who will inherit the position in the future is not certain.”

Lee Miaoyu’s heart was in turmoil. How lucky was she to meet a young master of such background in a place like this? If she could get his favor, what would happen?
