Chapter 513: Suspicion, Scheme (4)
The Yue family head sat on the main seat with a stern face. He was about 50 years old and looked very similar to Yue Qun. He looked very sanctimonious just from his appearance, but his strength was that of a Mystic Supremacy!
Yue Qun stood in front of the desk, looking at his father anxiously. However, he did not dare to ask what he wanted to know seeing that his father’s expression was not good.
“Qun’er, that old man from the Yu family declined.” The Yue family’s patriarch finally spoke after a long silence.
“Then what should we do? Father, think of a way. I must marry Xin’er!” Yue Qun said anxiously.
“Qun’er, are you sure that woman is really from the Leng family?” the Yue family’s patriarch asked doubtfully.
“Yes, definitely. Father, didn’t you secretly look at her? And those things I told you, can ordinary families possess them?” Yue Qun said hurriedly.
“But I keep feeling that the background of that woman is suspicious. If she is really the daughter of the Leng family, then we should visit them personally to propose marriage. That will also show our sincerity. After all, how can a woman like her decide on marriage!” the Yue family’s patriarch said slowly after some thought.
“Father, when will it be my turn if I go to the Leng family to propose marriage?” Yue Qun said without confidence. Alas! Their Yue family was considered to be trustworthy in Myriad Mountain City, but what was it compared to a superfamily like the Leng family!
“Qun’er, what are you talking about? How can our Yue family be inferior? Myriad Mountain City is our territory. Even the Leng Family would have to play by our rules if they come to the Myriad Mountain City.” The Yue family’s patriarch said confidently. Hmph! Back then, even the Leng family had to be polite to his grandfather’s generation! Unfortunately, he forgot that the current Yue family was no longer the Yue family of the past, and the Leng family might not necessarily give him face!
“Father, going to the Leng family to propose marriage is indeed insurance, but what if the Leng family sends people to investigate my background? Wouldn’t my past deeds be exposed?” Yue Qun said worriedly. In fact, he didn’t have much confidence in going to the Leng family to propose marriage because he used to…
“Hmph! I’ve warned you long ago to restrain yourself. Now you know better!” The Yue family’s patriarch rebuked angrily, exasperated at his son’s failure to live up to expectations. Alas! His son was good in every way, but he had a fatal weakness, which was being perverted! He wanted to bring all the women he liked home!
“Father, that’s all in the past. It won’t happen again. I promise!” Yue Qun raised a hand as if he was swearing an oath!
“What about those women?” the patriarch of the Yue family asked with displeasure. Those women would be in trouble if they really became relatives with the Leng family. Alas! He more or less knew the rules of the Leng family.
“Father, I’ve already dealt with those women. Don’t worry!” Yue Qun promised.
“That’s good. Qun’er, you will be someone who will do big things in the future. The hopes of our Yue family are all pinned on you, so don’t be as ridiculous as before, understand?” the Yue family’s patriarch advised earnestly.
“Okay,” Yue Qun promised. He would not be tempted for the time being unless a woman more beautiful than Xin’er appeared!
“Give this to your Xin’er!” Patriarch Yue took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
“Father, what is this?” Yue Qun was a little surprised. This little bottle looked so familiar!
“Ecstasy!” the Yue family head said softly.
“Father, you mean…” Yue Qun’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Exactly what you’re thinking. Hmph! I won’t be at ease if I don’t do this! Don’t even think about me getting her some ten-thousand-year-old wild ginseng,” the patriarch of the Yue family said worriedly.
He was not a young man who was blinded by love. He would not fall out with others over a woman of unknown origin. Therefore, he had no choice but to do this. He still had doubts about the woman’s identity, but in fact, he already believed in Leng Wuxin’s identity in his heart. However, out of caution, he felt that it was better to let his son get what he wanted first. This way, when he brought the Ten Thousand Years wild ginseng to the Leng family to propose marriage, the Leng family could not refuse even if they wanted to!
“But I…” Yue Qun was suddenly a little scared!
“Useless thing, where did your boldness when dealing with other women go?” the patriarch of the Yue family scolded with a displeased face.
“Alright! I’ll do it!” Yue Qun gritted his teeth and left the study with the porcelain bottle in his hand…
On the way to the Heartless Garden, Yue Qun was actually very nervous. To be honest, this was a situation he had never experienced before. However, his heart instantly became resolute again when he thought that Xin’er would really belong to him soon!
At the entrance of the Heartless Garden, Yue Qun walked. He raised his head high and asked arrogantly, “Is Xin’er awake?”
“Miss is awake!” the freak said indifferently, ignoring Yue Qun’s rudeness.
“I want to see her. Go and notify her,” Yue Qun ordered.
“Miss invites Young Master Yue in.” At this moment, Leng Ruoxue opened the door, walked out, and bowed slightly.
“Hmph!” Yue Qun glared at the freak and snorted coldly. Then he strode directly into Leng Wuxin’s boudoir.
“Young Master Yue, please have a seat,” Leng Ruoxue said politely on purpose to remind him that she was a guest, even though this was his home.
After Yue Qun entered the room, the maidservant he deliberately left in the Heartless Garden to serve Leng Wuxin immediately brought two cups of tea and some snacks. Leng Ruoxue naturally prepared some food for her young miss and then left the room.
Outside the room, Leng Ruoxue dismissed the Yue family’s maidservant and sat on the bench in the flowerbed with the freak, which happened to be facing Leng Wuxin’s room.
“Xue’er, what should we do now?” the freak asked with a naughty smile.
