Chapter 242: Regarded Him As A Scourge

For a while, they were all somewhat upset.

Seeing her grandmother, father, and brother becoming so distressed for her affairs, Lu Liangwei felt very guilty.

Grandmother, Dad, Big Bro

She wanted to say, Never mind, Ill just go ahead and enter the palace. She did not want her family to be so troubled for her sake.

However, before she could finish the sentence, Lu Hetian interrupted her, Tomorrow, Mother will enter the palace and ask to see the Emperor. Meanwhile, Ill visit the Ji family and discuss marriage plans with Ji Qingyuan. If the Emperor refuses to take Weiwei as his G.o.ddaughter, I fear that hell mention his proposal to Mother straight away. Thats why Ill go to the Ji Mansion and settle the marriage plans beforehand. Even if the Emperor doesnt like the G.o.ddaughter idea, theres no way hed commit something like bride kidnapping.

Of course, a marriage with the Ji family is only a stopgap measure. We can agree to it first. When the Emperor no longer pays attention to Weiwei, and if Weiwei really doesnt like Ji Xiu, well cancel the marriage.

Lu Hetian had already calmed down at this moment and explained his decision in an orderly manner.

The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess was fully convinced by his words. Your plan is more well-thought-out. Indeed, I dont have a great feeling about entering the palace tomorrow, and Im worried that the Emperor will force his proposal on us on the spot. But if youve already settled marriage plans with Ji Qingyuan, no matter how angry the Emperor may get, he wouldnt go so far as to kidnap the bride. This is a good idea. Lets do it.

Lu Tingchen also nodded in agreement.

Although he served the Emperor, he could not side with him if he wanted to marry Weiwei.

The Emperor was really unsuitable for Weiwei.

As she watched how things had abruptly played out, Lu Liangwei was at a loss for words.

Since Grandmother and Father have already made their decision, so be it.

Although she felt that it might be useless, she was reluctant to enter the palace obediently without putting up a fight.

If things really did not work out, only then would she decide the next step.

However, would the Ji family be willing to let the Lu family use them so blatantly?

Lu Liangwei was a little skeptical.

She neither wanted to enter the palace nor marry into the Ji family. If she wanted to cancel the marriage, would the Ji family agree to it?

She was a little uncertain.

However, when she met her fathers determined gaze, she suppressed all her doubts.

She did not want to marry. She wanted to stay in the Lu family forever.

The warmth of her family made that desire even stronger.

The palace.

It was already late at night, but the light in Hidden Dragon Palace had not gone out yet.

At this moment, s.h.i.+ Yi was down on one knee and reporting the news he had received to his master one at a time.

Long Yang sat quietly in his chair and listened to his report.

After s.h.i.+ Yi had finished, Zhao Qian was the first to burst out.

What are the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess and Grand Duke thinking? They actually want to let Second Miss Lu marry into the Duke Ji family?

Long Yang leaned his elbow on the armrest, ma.s.saging the center of his eyebrows with his fingers.

He had already predicted that the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess and Lu Hetian would not let Weiwei marry him so easily. However, he was not expecting that they would marry her off to a rich, frivolous boy like Ji Xiu just to prevent her from entering the palace.

Ji Xiu, huh?

His deep, unfathomable eyes narrowed slightly.

After Zhao Qian had spoken, he saw that his master was silent, the light casting an enigmatic shadow on his face, and he could not help feeling a little nervous.

The Grand Duke Family had really gone too far. It should be a blessing for them that Master fancied Second Miss Lu, but they regarded Master as a scourge instead. It was really too much.

Master must be furious right now.

Chu Qi and s.h.i.+ Yi also stood still in silence.

After a long moment, Long Yang suddenly stood up.

His handsome, G.o.dly features showed no sign of emotion except indifference.
