Chapter 298 - The Commotion in Front of Qin Manor (1/2)

Mo Xuetong was at a loss for words as she could not comprehend his logic. After a while, she smiled bitterly and asked, “Where are we going?”

“I’m bringing you to see a show. I promise that you will like it.” Feng Yuran smiled gently as he inched closer to her. “Look at how I seek revenge for you.”

“Whose show?” Mo Xuetong asked curiously.

“Who else? Definitely the genius Qin Yufeng who thought that he had your brother under control.” Feng Yuran said as he looked at Mo Xuetong’s face with caution. Seeing the laughter and delight on her face, he was immediately delighted. His men had personally seen Qin Yufeng and his men outside King Yan’s Manor.

That meant he wanted to kidnap Mo Xuetong. Qin Yufeng also ordered his men to never hurt the girl.

Feng Yuran was extremely upset that Qin Yufeng had Tong’er in his mind. Thus, even though Qin Yufeng escaped from his trap, he must let Qin Yufeng be embarra.s.sed in front of Tong’er. Hence, he “abducted” Mo Xuetong despite his injury. He could not endure others spying on his woman.

Since Qin Yufeng tried to harm Tong’er, he should not expect the woman to have grat.i.tude towards him.

He brought Mo Xuetong over hastily towards Qin manor to see Qin Yufeng in trouble. The greater trouble Qin Yufeng was in, the happier he would be.

Qin Yufeng was indeed in trouble, having the worst headache he ever had.

Originally, he thought that the matter was resolved but there was an aftermath to this incident. Someone revealed his recent visit to Jiangnan and hinted that Lady Li was pregnant. Furthermore, the infant was conceived around a similar time when he was in Jiangnan. That’s incredible news and Mo Huawen immediately rejected the marriage in the evening.

Qin Yufeng was involved in the entire matter.

No one dared to bear responsibility for the child in Lady Li’s womb, and thus the Li family refused to settle down. Even though it’s evening, he charged with Lady Li to Qin Manor. Front of the manor was well lit with lanterns, with a small carriage in front of the door and the crying of a woman inside. A commotion was created before the two families even met, as many gathered around to see the drama.

The troubled Lord Qin was facing an extravagant dressed middle-aged man with two thick gold necklaces on his neck. He was speechless in this confrontation. As the left imperial censor, he was in charge of debaters in the government, and he had to be innocent and clear to convince others.

With such a scandal, he would not be able to have the respect of his men. Furthermore, he would need to confess his crime on court tomorrow morning, for having raised a son that conducted such an improper act. Although he had faith in his outstanding son, he could not deny the evidence of the jade that they brought.

The jade was a family heirloom of the Qin family, with one held by Qin Yufeng and the other held by Qin Yuxuan. When the two jade were combined together, they form a whole piece. Qin Yufeng held the right half and Qin Yuxuan held the left half. With one glance, he knew that it was Qin Yufeng’s jade.

Qin Yuxuan was unconvinced and wanted to jump out and argue with the Li family. As a reckless fellow, he could not endure such accusation and had been suppressing himself for a long while. He knew his brother well and was convinced that his brother was not a man who was particularly interested in women, and would not have such a fling.

Qin Yufeng frowned and pulled Qin Yuxuan to stop his impulses. If he could not handle this matter well, he would get Father into trouble. Now, he was unsure of who he had offended that got him into trouble time after time, making him suffer in silence.

He went to Jiangnan last time for King Chu, and the person knew he could not explain himself on this matter.

Qin Yufeng, who was known for his wit, had never suffered such a loss before. Fortunately, he remained composed and ventured forth towards the talkative man. He replied calmly, “You said that your daughter is a good woman who never ventured out of the house on her own, meaning that I must have abducted her, right?”

“Of course! How can my innocent girl be involved in such a matter? She had always stayed in her house and was always like other ladies. Even though we are businessmen, we followed the law of Ding General Manor, and our girls are no less inferior than those from the officials’ families as they learned everything from inside the manor.” The middle-aged man pounded on his chest and promised.

“Since your back garden is so secure, how did I enter your house to meet your lady? How did I have s.e.x with her with no one noticing? Furthermore, how can a weak scholar like me enter your garden?” Qin Yufeng smiled coldly and pointed out the flaws in his argument.

The face of the middle-aged man froze as he was at a loss for words, with his face turning purple and black in confusion. Biting his teeth, he wanted to continue arguing when Qin Yufeng insisted, “You claimed that I was the one abducting your girl. Alright, bring your girl back. When she had her child, I will conduct a parental blood test with the child. If it is really my child, I will marry your girl immediately. If not, you will need to be jailed for framing me, with all your wealth confiscated and all your members turned into servants!”

Towards the end, Qin Yufeng’s eyes turned cold with hatred.

He was angry since he had been repeatedly provoked.

The middle-aged man did not expect Qin Yufeng to not argue with him and promised to accept the marriage if they did have a blood parental test. However, their family could not handle the consequences as his daughter’s son was his nephew’s one, and he dared not commit to the agreement.

He came to the imperial city today to get rid of the useless nephew and marry his daughter. However, he did not expect his daughter to be pregnant already. Furthermore, he did not expect his daughter to sleep with this man, clothes disheveled. It’s a great opportunity to marry his daughter to someone, especially since he visited Jiangnan a while back.

The coincidental time and behavior made Old Sir Li delighted, as he was worried about his daughter’s marriage. Now, he would pester the young man to the very end.

However, someone else was willing to take the blame. Old Sir Li was delighted to know that the man was a son of a third-grade official. His daughter could easily be the wife of an aristocrat, with her son possibly inheriting the entirety of Mo Manor. That’s an excellent deal!

However, Old Sir Li could not antic.i.p.ate the changes within the capital city itself.

While the deal was sealed in the morning, news erupted in the afternoon and Mo Manor was determined to reject the marriage. With his daughter’s reputation ruined, Old Sir Li went to Qin Manor to create a commotion, determined that Qin Yufeng must bear the responsibility since his daughter had his lost jade pendant.
