Chapter 52: Make You a Concubine
Jiang Yueyao was driven off the carriage by Lu Sui.
She held Chenyu's hand, looked at the carriage going further and further away, and made a "tsk" sound with her little mouth.
"How can a great master be so stingy?"
Chenyu looked at her: "How did you offend him?"
"I didn't provoke him," Jiang Yueyao said innocently. "He asked me to have some morals and conscience. I said I had no morals and no conscience, so he kicked me out."
Chenyu curled her lips.
"childish!"
Jiang Yueyao pulled her back and said, "It's already noon. I wonder if Aunt Chun and Sister Lan are back from shopping? How about I treat you to a bowl of mutton noodle soup?"
"I'm tired of eating mutton." Chenyu hooked her shoulders and said, "I heard that the pig stomach chicken in Dongjiexiang is good. Let's go and have it."
Jiang Yueyao looked at her sideways: "Do you have money?"
"It's OK as long as you have it." Chenyu answered as a matter of course.
Jiang Yueyao was so angry that she pinched the soft flesh on her waist.
"How come you're even thicker-skinned than me?!"
"Wait... I'll treat you to some delicious food later."
"I don't believe you, you keep telling me big things, but I'm so poor I can't even afford a piece of string..."
The two of them played and joked all the way to Dongjiexiang.
These roadside snack shops are still open. Because the pig stomach chicken is delicious, there are quite a few customers sitting inside.
The two happily ate the pig stomach and chicken, and then strolled back to Chunmen Lane hand in hand.
As soon as I entered the alley, I saw a carriage parked there steadily.
There was a servant standing next to the car. When he saw her, he immediately came over.
"Shopkeeper Jiang, my young master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Jiang Yueyao was puzzled: "Who is your young master?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the car curtain was lifted, revealing Lu Hengqing's dead face.
Jiang Yueyao's originally happy mood instantly turned bad the moment she saw him.
Chenyu glanced at her and asked, "Do you know her?"
"know."
Jiang Yueyao deliberately raised her voice, "Not only do we know each other, we are incredibly familiar with each other. If I say he is my fiancé, would you believe it?"
This time, not only Chenyu widened her eyes in shock, but Lu Hengqing was even more anxious.
"Jiang Yueyao, what nonsense are you talking about? Didn't we already make it clear about the engagement?"
As Lu Hengqing spoke, he stepped out of the carriage and walked towards Jiang Yueyao.
Filled with rage, Jiang Yueyao hugged Chenyu's arm and said, "It's over. He wants to kill me again."
"Again?" Chenyu immediately grasped the key words, "So, he has killed you before?"
"Um……"
Chenyu was about to ask again when Lu Hengqing walked up to her with a cold face and an extremely impatient look.
"I have something to ask you."
Jiang Yueyao was even more impatient than him: "I don't think there is anything more to talk about between us."
"Jiang Yueyao, please don't be ungrateful. I've already given you a lot of respect, so don't be so shameless!"
Jiang Yueyao originally hated him very much.
In my previous life, I was stabbed four or five times and died tragically. Every time I see him, I wish I could eat his flesh and drink his blood to relieve the hatred in my heart.
She had been suppressing her hatred for him, thinking that she had finally had a chance to start over, and she shouldn't waste her positive and promising life on this heartless bitch.
But she didn't look for him, but he came to find her again and again.
OK!
You don't want to have an easy life, right?
Then she won't be polite.
So, he took a quick step forward and slapped Lu Hengqing in the face.
She was so fast that not only Lu Hengqing didn't react, but even Chenyu, who was practicing martial arts at the side, was stunned.
She couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"As powerful as the wind, as fast as lightning, a promising talent for martial arts."
Jiang Yueyao was so proud of the praise.
"Thank you so much-----"
"Jiang, Yue, Yao!" Lu Hengqing looked at her in disbelief, "You hit me?!"
"I'm going to hit you, you heartless bastard!"
"You..." Lu Hengqing was so angry that his face turned ashen.
He stared at Jiang Yueyao intently, his eyes frighteningly fierce.
If Chenyu hadn't been by her side, Jiang Yueyao would have run away long ago.
Of course. If Chenyu hadn't been by her side, she wouldn't have dared to be so presumptuous.
She was unarmed and a weak woman. Not to mention that Lu Hengqing used his status as the third son of the Lu family to bully others, he could strangle her to death with just one hand.
Seeing that he was so angry that he didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Yueyao was too lazy to waste time with him.
He was about to leave with Chenyu, but was stopped by Lu Hengqing again.
"Jiang Yueyao, how did you get to know Third Uncle?"
Jiang Yueyao glanced at him and smiled: "What do you think?"
Lu Hengqing didn't answer her, but glanced at Chenyu.
Seeing that he really wanted to say something, Jiang Yueyao said to Chenyu, "Wait for me at the door."
Chenyu nodded, walked to the door, leaned against the door frame with her arms folded, and looked at Lu Hengqing. If he made any move, she would rush over immediately.
Lu Hengqing took two steps into the shadows before looking at Jiang Yueyao and speaking.
This time, the tone was much softer.
"Yaoyao, why do you always go against me?"
"I know I'm sorry for you, but you should understand me."
"Although I am now the third son of the Duke of Ying, I returned home too late. Many things no longer belong to me, and I have no say in many matters. You see, I appear to be in a good position, but in reality, there are many things that are beyond my control."
"And I regret it too-----"
Jiang Yueyao was curious: "What do you regret?"
"Princess Xiang Ning is too arrogant, and you've seen her temper..." Lu Hengqing felt even more angry when he thought about how Princess Xiang Ning had humiliated him in front of so many people today.
He said this and sighed again.
"Although I am sorry for you online, now you are the owner of Wanhe Tower, and Wanhe Tower is the property of the Lu family. In the final analysis, there is still a relationship between you and me."
Jiang Yueyao was amused by what she heard.
"Wanhe Tower is the private property bestowed by His Majesty to Master Lu. It has nothing to do with the Lu family you mentioned. Master Lu, please don't talk nonsense."
"Even if we have no relationship, Lu Sui is still my third uncle."
"Yaoyao, who do you think is more important to him, you or me?"
Jiang Yueyao suddenly fell silent.
She and Lu Sui had no relatives or friends, and had only known each other for a few months.
No matter what, Lu Hengqing is still a member of the Lu family and Lu Sui's nephew.
We are connected by blood and cannot be separated.
Seeing her fall silent.
Lu Hengqing took a step closer to her, his voice becoming gentler.
"Yaoyao, if I had no other choice, how could I bear to give up on you?"
As he said this, he tried to pull her hand again, but Jiang Yueyao cleverly dodged it.
She frowned, looking disgusted.
"Don't touch me."
"Okay, okay—I won't touch you. I came to you today to tell you something." Lu Hengqing said affectionately and sincerely, "I know you still have our marriage certificate. I always carry it with me. The engagement between you and me is still valid."
"After I marry Princess Xiangning, I will discuss with her and bring you into the palace as a concubine."
"Although I am a concubine, it is a great fortune for you to be able to enter the Duke of Ying's mansion------"
