Chapter 7 Part 1: Anti-Marriage

 


 ^^



Lin Wei Xi passed the window and happened to hear Yan Wang said that the wedding of Gu Cheng Yao and Gao Ran was scheduled for next month.

  

Lin Wei Xi thought she didn't care anymore, but when she heard these words, the smile on her face stiffened.

  

She died in depression in December, and only in a few days, Gu Cheng Yao is going to marry a new bride?

  

She was the eldest granddaughter of Duke Yingguo. Gu Cheng Yao didn't like her, Lin Wei Xi admitted it, but what about the Duke Yingguo Mansion? Where were her father and grandmother? They actually let Gu Cheng Yao do this. Perhaps they were eager to let Gao Ran enter the door as soon as possible and did not ruin the hard-won marriage between Yan Wang Mansion and Duke Yingguo Mansion because of Gao Xi's failure.

  

Lin Wei Xi felt sore in the corners of her eyes for no reason. Her mother Wei Shi died when she was ten years old. After that, Lin Wei Xi lived in her grandmother's princess mansion for more than half a year. She thought that she was quite indifferent to her former relatives. Between relatives also need affinity, since Duke Yingguo Shizi didn't like his di daughter, then she also wouldn't be close to him nor disrespect him, then the two sides were even. But how could they trampled her dignity like this? Was it because she was dead and would no longer know about these things, and there was no mother to stand up for her, so they became unscrupulous?

  

Sorry to disappointed them. She didn't die completely, and also returned to the world.

  

The guard outside the study had already seen Lin Wei Xi, and the conversation in the study suddenly stopped.

  

Lin Wei Xi adjusted her expression, smiled and walked up: "Is His Royal Highness Yan Wang inside?"

 

Before the guard reported it, Gu Hui Yan's low and clear voice could heard from the room: "Let her in."

 

Lin Wei Xi entered the room and saw Zhou Mao Cheng standing on one side, he hung his head slightly, looking unnatural.

  

Talking about Gu family’s Shizi, even for a close confidante like Zhou Mao Cheng, it was not good to say too much.

  

Zhou Mao Cheng bowed his head and said nothing. Yan Wang treated them generously, but it didn't mean that they could meddle with Yan Wang’s family affairs. Because Shizi had a father like Yan Wang, he had lived the life of the proud son of heaven since he was a child. Now he was just marrying a new wife, it was not a big deal. Yan Wang could be dissatisfied, but they couldn't.

  

Lin Wei Xi had a bit of inexplicable evil in her heart, deliberately asked: "Your Highness, Uncle Zhou, what are you talking about just now? Who is getting married?"

 

Zhou Mao Cheng glanced at Gu Hui Yan and found that Yan Wang did not mind, he explained to Lin Wei Xi: "It’s the only son of Wangye, our Yan Wang Mansion Shizi, he is going to marry a wife."

  

"Oh, is it the first Shizi Consort? Congratulations to the young couple."

  

Zhou Mao Cheng's face was a little embarrassed: "It’s the second wife."

  

Zhou Mao Cheng explained to Lin Wei Xi with some embarrassment, and Lin Wei Xi also pretended to listen. Neither of them noticed Gu Hui Yan glanced at Lin Wei Xi faintly, the glance passed by in a flash, but it contained palpitating exploration and insight. When most people heard about marriage, they wouldn’t think to ask if it was the first partner, but when Lin Wei Xi asked it, it was as if she knew it was not the first partner.

  

Gu Hui Yan only glanced and then withdrew his gaze, his face still looked unhappy. On the other side, Lin Wei Xi finally "understood" the situation in Yan Wang Mansion, and sighed: "It turns out the son of Yan Wang Mansion is marrying a new wife. This is really unexpected. Is the son of Yan Wang already very old? Yan Wang is so young so I thought Shizi was not too old."

  

Gu Hui Yan was thinking about what happened just now. When he heard this, he couldn't help but laugh lightly, and looked at Lin Wei Xi with a smile: "Your compliment is too obvious, properly practice and then try again!"

  

Lin Wei Xi felt small grain pricks her heart. Now that she was caught by her ex-husband's father, she would inevitably felt a little troubled. Her eyes flowed, she glared at Gu Hui Yan unconvincingly: "What I said is true! Uncle Zhou, what do you say?"

 

Zhou Mao Cheng inexplicably got goose bumps, and he was compel to nod with a bitter face, "Wangye is young and strong, Shizi is also in his prime."

  

Gu Hui Yan smiled softly, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became more relaxed.

  

Gu Hui Yan was in a much better mood, and Zhou Mao Cheng sighed with relief before he dared to speak: "Wangye, Shizi specially wrote to ask you go back to the wedding. The last time we were in the northwest calming down the chaos, so we couldn't make it back. Although Shizi didn’t say it, he definitely looking forward to you. This time finally have a chance... Wangye, this subordinate know that you are not satisfied with this marriage, but the wood has become a boat. After all, Shizi likes..."

  

Lin Wei Xi couldn't bear to hear this "It seems that I have little knowledge. Yan Wang's expedition was only work of one or two years, to miss Shizi’s first wedding, unexpectedly still able to catch up with the second."

 

Zhou Mao Cheng was speechless by Lin Wei Xi's sentence, his face flushed. Gu Hui Yan was not at all annoyed. Instead, he smiled and looked at Lin Wei Xi: "You seem to be very hostile to Gu Cheng Yao, you are even angry with his marriage. You don’t know him, right?"

  

Lin Wei Xi was shocked in her heart, she carelessly said something in her heart, why had she forgotten that this was the powerful Yan Wang. She just leaked some emotions in her words and was caught by him.

  

Lin Wei Xi in any case was also a mistress of big house before. Her expression remained unchanged and deliberately showed an unreasonable attitude: "Of course I am hostile to him. You clearly said that you will settled me first and then return to the capital. But now he sent a letter to call you away! What should I do?"

  

This reason was reasonable, Gu Hui Yan accepted it. He let it go with a slight smile. Zhou Mao Cheng's heart was ups and downs. In such short period of time, he had been frightened several times. Now he looked at Lin Wei Xi differently. Was it because the ignorant was fearless or this girl simply lucky, dare to talk to Yan Wang like this, was Yan Wang really not annoyed?

  4. Is the Grand Princess also dead?? I can't imagine she would let this go with saying something. If she's alive I hope they reunite.

    Hehe Wangye grow fonder of Xiao Xi. Wangye is young best to get a young wife and have more babies than leaving everything to this trash child of yours. Really who just assumes he got the right girl, were those carved fish so unique it was a guarantee?? Moron!

    2. More like, who just assumed the wrong girl AND blamed her for his own faults while she has no clue what's going on at all.

      Although, she also didn't try to communicate with him either.

    4. I think Grand Princess is too old now, so her power might have stretched thin.

      And yes. Who in their right mind assumed the wrong girl then accused the girl to be lying?? That pendant was hers originally, logically you will assume your benefactor was a thief! Grrr

  5. You can see he treats her as an amusing junior and it's novel to have someone talking to him like that after years of bootlicking and terrified women.

    But again it seems more like how he'd treat an amusing child, though there's always some ambiguous feelings betweeen and women especially in these times but it's gonna be weird when it turns romantic.

    Mc sure has a lot of balls though lol I love her.
