It was obvious that she had something to say to Fu Jingchen, because as soon as the man arrived, the old woman immediately told Jiang Wanlan to leave.
"Then I'll go down first. Madam, Fourth Master, you two can continue your conversation."
With a gentle smile, Jiang Wanlan prepared to leave.
The old lady nodded with a kind expression.
But as Jiang Wanlan walked past the man with the powerful aura, she couldn't help but raise her eyes and glance at him again.
The man before her had the same face as the man who had yelled at her last night, but Jiang Wanlan knew that the person she loved was Fu Beiyao from the night before.
Of course, Fu Jingchen is the head of the Fu family.
Jiang Wanlan held him in the same awe.
But no one knew how urgent it was for the old lady to tell Fu Jingchen. Jiang Wanlan hadn't even gone far when she asked, "Chen'er, I heard from the servants that you brought a young girl back these past two days. What is your relationship with that girl?"
Knowing all along that this couldn't be kept a secret, Fu Jingchen pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment.
Seeing his reaction, the old lady frowned and continued, "Chen'er, you came by last night... no, the tenth prince came by last night."
Did the Tenth Master come to see the Old Madam last night?
Jiang Wanlan, who had just left Jingyang Tower, stopped abruptly upon hearing what the old lady inside said.
Thinking about what happened last night, she suddenly nervously gripped the embroidered handkerchief in her hand.
The Tenth Prince came to see the Old Madam, could it be about his marriage?
Jiang Wanlan knew that Fu Beiyao didn't like her. If he really came last night because of that matter, then he must have come to protest.
"Mother, what... is he doing here?" Fu Jingchen asked, his gaze deep and his voice deliberately lowered.
The old lady glanced at him, her eyes filled with deep worry. "Chen'er, the tenth prince said he wants to marry the little girl you brought back."
One sentence made Fu Jingchen suddenly raise his head, and Jiang Wanlan outside the house was stunned in place.
What, what.
Is Tenth Master really going to marry that woman from last night?
A sharp pain shot through her heart, and Jiang Wanlan's face turned deathly pale.
...
The sound of Jiang Wanlan's footsteps finally came from outside the door. Fu Jingchen sat down in the red sandalwood chair, then frowned and asked, "Mother, what did you say to him?"
Helpless, the old lady sighed, "I said I don't know what your relationship is with that girl. I said maybe she's someone you like. I can't make the decision for you."
"But the tenth brother's attitude this time is quite resolute, I'm afraid..."
"Mother, please don't worry about this for now."
After chatting for a few minutes, Fu Jingchen got up from his seat, walked to the old lady's side and patted her shoulder reassuringly, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Chen'er".
The old lady's voice came from behind again, "Chen'er, is that girl someone you like?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Jingchen stopped in his tracks.
He still didn't answer.
The old lady frowned slightly. "Chen'er, if you like her too, why don't I arrange the wedding for you two?"
“Mother.” Fu Jingchen turned around and stopped her, “Let me think about this some more.”
Marriage is a serious matter, not something to be taken lightly.
Moreover, this matter is no longer his or "his" business.
As for Mu Yunshu, he didn't know what she really thought of him.
Fu Jingchen has always been a steady and reliable person, and now that the old lady sees how determined he is, she doesn't know what else to say.
"Alright then, I'll find an opportunity to talk to Lao Shi in the next couple of days."
