Chapter 629 War Of Words (2/2)
The atmosphere in the hall immediately became chilly.
Yu ManTang turned around with a desolate expression and his eyes shut. The joy from his daughter's illness being cured could no longer be seen. He originally wanted to risk the fury of his big brother and sneak BingYan out of the Yu Family but he never imagined that Yu ManLou would see through his plans and openly say his piece at this moment!
The moment Yu ManLou said his piece, it would be the decision of the family and the decision could no longer be changed! Even if Yu ManTang didn't want to face the decision, he had no choice but to accept it. If Yu ManTang still thought of sending his daughter away at this moment, it would be akin to betraying his family and this was something that Yu ManTang would never be able to accept!
A bitter smile could be seen on Yu BingYan's face. She knew that her first uncle would definitely show his cards during this trip of hers but she never expected him to show his cards this quickly! It seemed like her first uncle could not wait to send her to her death just so he could give Ling Tian a blow!
Half a year ago, her first uncle sold her out for the ambition of swallowing the Ling Family. Today, he wanted to make use of her to strike a blow at the Ling Family and her husband! So what if she was Yu ManLou's flesh and blood?!
I won't let things go your way!
”Ever since I was young, BingYan understood my destiny and knew that I was the main character of the generational battle. BingYan already understood that I had to sacrifice for the family...” Yu BingYan said in a righteous manner.
Yu ManLou's face turned dull as he heard that but he was elated in his heart. ”Yan'er is truly understanding...”
However, he never expected Yu BingYan to interrupt him with a sneer, ”However, First Uncle seems to have forgotten something important. Things are no longer like before. When First Uncle talked about the Yu Family disciples, it includes everyone within these premises except for me.” While she had already made relevant arrangements to deal with Yu ManLou's demands, Yu BingYan could not help but speak out the words of her heart. Ever since she was young, she had always been filled with fear and reverence for her first uncle. But at this moment, Yu BingYan no longer had a single trace of fear.
”Oh?” Yu ManLou's expression changed and his cold gaze shot over, lowering the temperature in the room, ”Niece BingYan is trying to say that you do not acknowledge that you are a Yu Family disciple?”
Yu BingYan lifted her head up proudly, ”This niece is already Mrs. Ling!”
”Preposterous!” Yu ManLou flew into a rage and slapped a chair beside him. With a loud 'pa' sound, the sandalwood chair was reduced to dust, ”Even if you are married to Ling Tian, you are still Yu BingYan! The first word of your name is still 'Yu'!”
”Yes, if this was half a year ago, that would be the case indeed.” A mocking smile could be seen on Yu BingYan's face, ”At that time, if BingYan died, I would have to be buried in the tomb of the Yu Family. But now, even if BingYan dies, I can only be buried in the Ling Family's tomb!”
Yu BingYan took two steps back and glared at Yu ManLou without backing down, ”As the Family Head of the Yu Family, First Uncle can naturally give an order to the daughter of the Yu Family! If BingYan does not remember wrongly, First Uncle instructed Third Uncle to propose a marriage to the Ling Family and form goodwill between the families even if BingYan was a concubine!”
Yu ManLou's face flushed with awkwardness and despite what Yu BingYan said being the truth, Yu ManLou refused to admit it and roared instead, ”That was just a stop-gap measure, how can it still count right now?! The matters of today cannot be compared to the matters of yesterday!”
”As the daughter of the family, BingYan can naturally sacrifice anything. It was the same back then even if I had to become someone else's concubine. However, the BingYan today isn't the BingYan from yesterday and I am already the daughter-in-law of the Ling Family. If the Ling Family wants me to sacrifice myself, I can only sacrifice myself for the Ling Family! I hope that First Uncle will remember this. A woman who marries out is like a tub of water being spilled out. I, BingYan, am already a member of the Ling Family!”
PA!! Yu ManLou had no retort to Yu BingYan's words and swung his arm out to give her a tight slap.
