Fang Chuning teased, "Lin Xiao, why are you twisting his arm, look, his face is all scrunched up from the pain."
Hearing this, Lin Xiao felt even more guilty. Despite repeatedly warning Zhang Boxin, he just wouldn't listen. Why bring up Fang Chuning's engagement?
"Does Mr. Fang have some unspeakable secret about his engagement? Rest assured, I'm tight-lipped and won't spill a word," Zhang Boxin suddenly realized. "Is it because of that reputation of bringing bad luck to wives? That was from years ago, does it still affect marriage proposals now?"
"Ha!" Lin Xiao just let out a sigh. You claim to be tight-lipped, but whatever you know, all your friends know too.
Fang Chuning said, "Not really, there's nothing inconvenient to say. It's just that I like someone, but he... doesn't like me."
Perhaps saying it like this, they might find it easier to accept.
