Many thoughts ran through her head as she walked to the living room. She shook her head. She had just put on a show in front of her aunt and her daughters, and now it would be so disgracing to let them see her fear.
As the door of the living room became visible, she straightened her back and lifted her chin, hiding very sign of her nervousness.
As she approached the door, she could hear her aunt's anxious voice. It seems that she was not the only one that had sensed trouble.
"Young master. You paid us a visit. It is such a honour that our humble little family does not deserve. We feel suffocated having your presence in our little abode."
As she spoke Yang Yang walked into the room, silently chuckling as she saw the look the young master gave her when she described him as suffocating. Her choice of words was still the as bad as ever. But the fact could not be denied anyways, his presence really was suffocating.
His piercing dark eyes, the scowl on his face they looked permanent, his straight back even as he sat, and worst of all, his strong aura. His hostile aura that seemed like it could be felt from a mile away, making oeople instinctively want to stay away from him. He looked like he had been created to intimidate.
Youchang Chen ignored her completely waiting until Biyu entered before he spoke.
"I have been played by this family. Your little tricks have all been discovered." His voice sounded even more cold than his face looked.
Shujia Lin shivered as she smelled trouble.
"Our families has been tied by marriage, and I was meant to be given a wife and not a slut."
Shujia's face turned pale. Every one knew the agreement between the two families clearly. And what was that talk about giving him a slut?. She turned to look at Biyu Lin in disbelief. Her face was unusually calm. It did not seem as though the most feared young master Chen was right in front of her, or that he seemed upset with her and was calling her a slut. Her face showed no sign of fear that her most cherished relationship might soon be annulled.
After staring for what seemed like a long time, she finally spoke. "Young master, I do not really understand what you are hinting at. Please elaborate for her what you wife has done."
Hearing her plea, Youchang Chen chuckled. A low rumbling sound that was even more frightening than his scowl.
"Wife?. I can not remember ever getting married. I was not even engaged. As for what she has done, she not only did It, but your whole family did." He said, lightly lifting his hand. His assistant immediately put a phone in it. He turned the screen around, indicating to Shujia to take a good look.
Shujia Lin froze when her eyes landed in the screen. How could these be?. She turned her eyes to look at Biyu Lin who was still quiet like she was not connected to the issue at hand.
Shujia shifted her gaze back to the phone. Intimate pictures of Biyu Lin and different men was still displayed in the screen.
Seeing her shocked expression, Youchang Chen continued. "This pictures were sent to us by an anonymous number. But after much investigation, we realized that it as was a member of this family who sent it to us."
Hearing this, Biyu Lin's eyes flickered for the first time. He could not have found her out. No. She was careful enough and he could not be so smart. Reasoning this, she relaxed a bit.
Shujia Lin's face contorted in anger and she shifted her gaze to Yang Yang in anger. How could She?. Just because she had ignored her rebellion earlier, she had gone ahead and spoilt her sister's relationship. Not to worry though. Today, right after the young master leaves, she would face her death.
Yang Yang felt her hostile gaze, but she ignored her, keeping a straight face.
Watching their expressions closely, Youchang Chen spoke again. "I would like to ask" He shifted his gaze to Biyu Lin's face. "Why you deemed it fit to deceive me Biyu Lin. I would like to know why you agreed to marry me and then turned around to send me your intimate pictures anonymously."
Biyu Lin's legs felt weak. He had seen through her plans. Now there was no escape route, no room for denial. She would surely be dead meat soon. She avoided his gaze as she spoke.
"Young master Chen, I.. i never intended it to be this way. Actually, I.. i lost interest in.. in the marriage..."
Youchang raised his hands slightly, interupting her. He shifted his yes back to Shujia.
"As you know. She has made a grave mistake. You should think of a way to make amends."
Hearing his words, Shujia turned to look at Biyu. "Do you even know the weight of your actions?. Who would dare reject the handsome and most powerful young master Chen?. And you dare play tricks on him a too? Do you want to get us all killed?. Now apologise to the young master and tell him you would marry him." Shujia scolded.
Biyu lifted her eyes as she spoke. "I have made a decision mother. I would not marry him." She said, her voice resolute not withstanding the fear in her eyes.
Shujia looked at her shocked. She wanted to scold her, but she realized that her daughter seemed more calculating this days. If she did not want to marry Youchang Chen, then they must be some reason for it. Was he going to die? Or was he going to go bankrupt soon?. Thinking of these, the fear in her eyes lessened a bit, but still, she dared not act recklessly.
I'm a swift move, she knelt pulling Yang Yang who stood beside her down with her. Bowing, she begged.
"My Lord. My daughter can be very difficult at times. Initially there was a man she loved, but I forced her to agree to the marriage with you. And now she can no longer pretend. Young master please forgive us. But a member of my family, my little nice here has always had her eyes on you. I am sure she would be delighted to marry you."
Yang Yang stared at her with disbelief. Words seemed to favour Shujia a bit right now. When Shujia Lin pulled her down with her she was awed, and now all this talk?. When did she become their family member? When did she fall in love with Youchang Chen?. Was it not because of this accusation that she almost shaved off her hair Today?. And now? Now she was gladly throwing her at Youchang.
She had lots of questions, but one thing was sure. Biyu Lin was running away from her marriage with young master Chen, and her mother Shujia Lin was trying to cover up for her, using Yang Yang as a a bait. But Why?.
