As far as Wei Wei’s answer was concerned, it was absolutely within everyone’s expectation. After all, a remarkable first-cla.s.s bachelor like Murong Chang Feng, with his family’s standing as well as his good looks, would be a rare find even within the entire capital. Moreover, she had always wanted to marry him. Therefore, everybody didn’t have anything to be surprised about as they extended a hand to pull Helian Jiao Er up.
Except that right at this moment, Wei Wei opened her mouth again. She stood at the center of the compound without any makeup, sleeves fluttering. Her pair of eyes looked straight at Murong Chang Feng as she spoke, pausing after each word, “However, I want to break off the engagement.”
Those few placid and serene words were like thunder that suddenly cut a hole within the crowd of people.
Everybody was stunned and one after another stopped their movements, finding it difficult to believe as they looked over towards Wei Wei.Their eyes were filled with stupefaction.
Wei Wei was just as before, indifferent in appearance, “Second Sister kept insisting that I’ve resented her because of you. Since it’s like that, in the future, Lord also won’t need to move surrept.i.tiously anymore. As long as you agree to break off the engagement, I naturally will also help you guys fulfill your desire.”
Murong Chang Feng’s jaw clenched slightly and his body also stiffened subsequently. His pair of eyes unwaveringly stared at her, concealing waves of anger. This girl suddenly really wanted to…..
“Seeing that Lord is not speaking, it should be because you’ve agreed.” Wei Wei, facing his eyes, laughed mockingly.
If it weren’t for Murong Chang Feng’s words today, she still wouldn’t have known that this marriage contract was so troublesome.
A marriage that was appointed by the Retired Emperor; without a special reason, there would’ve been in fact no way to get rid off it.
Since Murong Chang Feng wanted to plead with her on behalf of his Helian Jiao Er, then she has to make him take out a bit of payment.
A single word, ‘forgive’, in exchange for her future freedom was worth it!
“You…good, great! Wei Wei, how great you really are!” Murong Chang Feng waved his long sleeves, the side of his face was ice cold, as if he was a sculpture that had just emerged from the freezing ground.
He, Murong Chang Feng, when did he become a groom who was sent to the door of the wedding chapel, only to be locked outside?
In addition, she suddenly even wanted to push him over to another woman!
Feeling indignant was his first reaction. If it wasn’t for so many people looking from all sides, he really would choke her to death with his own hands!
The one who liked him clearly was her, wasn’t it?
And now also pus.h.i.+ng him away…..
Argh, did this girl really feel that he wouldn’t deal with her!
Wei Wei knitted her long, shapely eyebrows a bit. She hadn’t imagined that Murong Chang Feng would have this kind of att.i.tude. The one who didn’t want to get married clearly should’ve been him.
She certainly hadn’t forgotten that if it weren’t for his bill of divorcement, Helian Jiao Er and Helian Mei also wouldn’t have had the guts to skin her alive and thrown in a river.
Even though he wasn’t the criminal, nevertheless, he had never helped her even once.
From beginning to end, he’d only coldly looked on from the side, detesting her to the extreme.
This kind of man, even if he was a rare find in the world, to her, he was not worth having!
“Eh?” Nangong Lie, who’d just finished the divination exam, extended his hand towards his chin, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, “Surprisingly, it’s Wei Wei who brought forth the issue of breaking off the marriage. There’s something going on, there’s definitely something going on!”
Baili Jia Jue leaned on the flowering tree as before, the tea cup grasped within his hand neared the side of his lip, slowly being savored. That swaying trunk seemed as if it calmed down quite a bit.
“Ah Jue, could it be that you’re not even a bit curious? Why would Wei Wei do this?” Nangong Lie seemed lost in thought as he inclined his head a bit to one side, “Based on my many years of experience, she must be loosening the reigns to grasp them better! That’s right, it’s loosening the reigns to grasp them better! One really couldn’t tell that this ‘little kitten’ likes Murong Chang Feng so much she doesn’t even want her reputation because of him….”
