Chapter 982 Proposal
Lin Yiwan looked at Sang Qiutang with suspicion. She frowned and said, "I heard from the housekeeper last night that someone came asking for help. It must be them, right? I just don't know what happened!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mo Lingyue and Tang Mingxuan arrived in front of everyone.
Mo Lingyue spoke first: "Miss Xiaoruan, I, I came to see you too!"
However, at this critical moment, the gatekeeper hurried in to report: "Madam, Madam Xing and her daughter from the Mo Mansion have arrived. They said they have something important to see you about. If you don't agree, they will stay at the door and won't leave!"
Mo Lingyue's face flushed with anger. He gritted his teeth and muttered, "They even dared to cause trouble at the Lin Mansion. They won't stop until they've completely destroyed me!"
Sang Qiutang said solemnly, "Let them in and see what they want to say!"
Soon, Mrs. Xing and her daughter were invited into the tea room.
Mrs. Xing dressed very ostentatiously, and the golden headpiece made her look wealthy.
Many noble ladies found it funny. No lady of taste in the capital would ever dress so ostentatiously.
At first glance, he is a country bumpkin who has just arrived.
Although they were mocking in their hearts, no one showed it on their faces. After all, they were here to meet the host, so how could they leave a bad impression on the host?
Lin Yiwan sat there calmly. She had met Mrs. Xing before and knew her shameful ways, so she had no good feelings towards her at all.
Mrs. Xing had no self-awareness at all. She thought she had successfully attracted everyone's attention.
She raised her chin proudly and said, "I came here to tell Miss Xiaoruan that she can no longer look at Ling Yue, because Ling Yue got drunk last night and had physical contact with my daughter!"
Just one sentence made everyone present open their eyes wide in shock.
They never expected that Mo Lingyue had already slept with his cousin, yet he still came to see her. Could it be that he was planning to make Miss Xiaoruan his concubine?
How is this possible?
At this time, Xing Xuexue was crying bitterly. She looked at Mo Lingyue with a resentful tone, "Cousin, even if I am wrong in a thousand ways, I am still your cousin after all!"
She deliberately exposed the red marks on her neck so that the noble ladies sitting on the platform could see them clearly.
They have all been through this, so how could they not understand what those traces are?
One of the noble ladies complained, "City Lord Mo, you're quite amusing. Miss Xiaoruan is the Marquis's sister. No matter how noble your status is, you shouldn't let her suffer even the slightest injustice. Since you already have a lover, why are you trying to interfere?"
Everyone else chimed in, "Exactly. What do you take Little Soft Girl for?"
Seeing so many people joining in, Mrs. Xing showed an undisguised sense of pride on her face.
Xing Xuexue cried even harder, she only wanted to make Mo Lingyue change his mind.
Mo Lingyue was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He staggered to Lin Xiaoruan and said, "Xiaoruan, I know that from the moment they showed up, I lost the right to marry you, but I don't want you to misunderstand. I didn't touch Xing Xuexue!"
Xing Xuexue shouted anxiously: "Cousin!"
Mo Lingyue glared at her fiercely: "Shut up! From the moment you drugged me, you are no longer my cousin!"
Xing Xuexue subconsciously denied: "I didn't!"
Mo Lingyue sneered, "You don't have anything? You didn't drug me? Do you dare let others see your injuries? Just to have a fait accompli with me, you did such a despicable thing, Xing Xuexue, you really make me sick!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to look at everyone: "Even if Xing Xuexue plotted against me, I didn't touch her. After I stabbed her, I escaped from the mansion. It was Tang Mingxuan who saved me and sent me to Old Doctor Lin. Otherwise, I would have exploded and died by now!"
Mrs. Xing's face suddenly changed. She never expected that Mo Lingyue would tell the scandal in public.
She spoke quickly: "Ling Yue, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the Lord of Jingcheng, don't you care about your reputation?"
Mo Lingyue looked at her with disdain: "What's reputation worth? I only regret bringing you out of the Xing family. You deserve to be tortured to death by the Xing family!"
After saying that, he saluted Lin Yiwan, turned around and left quickly.
Lin Xiaoruan quickly caught up with him and asked, "City Master Mo, how is your health now?"
Mo Lingyue turned his head and looked at her infatuatedly: "Xiaoruan, now that I think about it, I really am not worthy of you. I shouldn't have selfishly wanted to take you away. I'm sorry!"
Lin Xiaoruan shook her head: "You don't have to apologize to me. No matter what, I hope you can cheer up. You deserve better!"
Mo Lingyue spoke in a gloomy voice, "No matter who you choose, when you get married, I will definitely send you a dowry in the name of your brother. I will never break my promise!"
After saying that, he turned around and left resolutely.
"Cousin, wait for me!" Xing Xuexue and her daughter immediately chased after him.
Lin Xiaoruan's tears immediately rolled down. She looked at his back, feeling sympathetic but helpless.
She knew in her heart that she had no love for Mo Ling!
When she took care of him, it was only because he was sick.
After he left, he never appeared in her mind again.
It was Tang Mingxuan who often disturbed her mind.
When they met again in Suzhou City, she had the idea of taking care of him.
He has nothing now, only she is left!
Mo Lingyue also has Jingcheng, his city lord's wife, who should be a noble lady who is influential in the area, not an orphan like her who only knows medical skills!
Thinking of this, she felt relieved.
She smiled at Lin Yiwan and the other noble ladies and said, "Sister, I've made up my mind. I've chosen Tang Mingxuan and I want to marry him!"
Happiness came unexpectedly, leaving Tang Mingxuan, who was frozen in place, a little confused.
Doctor Lin had no choice but to reach out and push him: "Silly boy, what are you still standing there for? Come forward quickly!"
Tang Mingxuan reacted belatedly. He was so shocked by the surprise that he could hardly walk.
He walked up to Lin Xiaoruan with his hands and feet together and asked in disbelief: "Xiaoruan, did you really choose me?"
Lin Xiaoruan said seriously: "Yes, I think you are the most suitable candidate for husband. Of course, you also have the right to choose. If you don't like me, you can refuse!"
Tang Mingxuan quickly waved his hands: "No, I don't like it!"
Seeing Lin Xiaoruan's eyes suddenly widen, he subconsciously slapped himself on the mouth: "Sorry, my words slipped up suddenly. What I meant was that I like you very much and I am willing to marry you!"
As the words fell, a helpless sigh was heard around.
Obviously, the ladies were very disappointed.
After all, everyone is willing to marry into the Zhan Yihou Mansion!
Lin Yiwan smiled and said, "Since my little sister's marriage is already decided, let's end this banquet. I won't let you all come here in vain. Later, the Zhan Yihou Mansion will send you a generous gift. Please accept it!"
