Chapter 1: Broken Engagement
”Junior sister Shu, give me back the jade ruyi”
Just as she arrived at the drawing roofei She was startled for a few seconds before shefaifted it to her as an engagement token Now he came by himself to demand it back…
”As cofei raised a hand,open brocade case, to hand it over to her
Murong Yun Shu swept her gaze over the treasured sword, but didn't receive it She said indifferently, ”No need The jade ruyi originally belonged to the Fang fa it to you is a matter of course”
”After all it'syou a loss”
”You don't have to feel guilty I' you, but only because I'e for this treasured sword and waste everybody's time”
Hearing her words, Fang Hongfei was deeply embarrassed ”You… What do you mean by that?”
Murong Yun Shu raised her left eyebrow, asking leisurely, ”Is there anything else?”
”…No”
”Then take care I won't see you out”
”Junior sister Shu…” Fang Hongfei was about to chase after her, but he was blocked by Murong Yun Shu's personal maid
”Young hero Fang, the exit is that way” Lu'er pointed at the gate as she spoke
”I know that, I wanted to…”
”Young hero Fang, have a good day”
”I still haven't…”
”Souest out”
”You… Good! Since your Murong House doesn't put jian1 Manor in your eyes, in the future don't bla out this sentence, Fang Hongfei left in a huff
”Miss, I'fei said when he departed,” Lu'er said with a heavy heart
Without any worries, Murong Yun Shu flipped through an account book with one hand and worked the abacus with the other She spoke fir doesn't bark a few ti?”
”That's right, he's just a dog Wait, no, even dogs are better than hiement immediately after the nation
”I also wouldn't get ”
”……”
”Kicking a man when he's down is a very co Yun Shu kept her indifferent appearance as she concentrated on her calculations It see could interest her aside from the account book
Herin silence saddened Lu'er ”Ey, ifwould dare bully our Murong House or our young lady…”
Hearing that, Murong Yun Shu's slender fingers paused over the abacus She slowly raised her head and her pair of bright eyes stared fixedly at her as she spoke in a serious tone, ”Even if dad isn't around, there still won't be anyone who dares to bully Murong House”
”Miss…” Lu'er burst into tears The young lady finally grew up, she grew up2!
Murong Yun Shu cast a sidelong baffled glance at the bawling Lu'er, then lowered her head to continue doing the accounts After working the abacus a few tiain and said, ”Go see a doctor If you have no money, take some from the accounts office”
Lu'er was clueless ”Why should I see a doctor?” She wasn't ill!
”Eye disease”
”……” She had no eye disease, but her internal injury was very heavy Lu'er gazed at her honorable rew up, it was still the sa lady Whatever she said was extraordinarily out of this world
Murong House ran banks and jewelry stores Murong Yun Shu's father, Murong Qing, had a hand in both the legal and illegal business worlds Under hisbanks were spread around the whole country, practicallythe entire market The jewelry stores 'Qian Bian Wan Yin'3, that had their signboard engraved with golden letters, enjoyed a great reputation everywhere and were favored by nobles and high officials
Before Murong Qing passed away, Jinling’s Murong House was a sy like ain like ducks Within five short days after his death, the banks received a massive amount of requests to cash in on bank notes, the jewelry stores were gloo House would decline from now on, without a chance of recovery nobody caain No one wanted to be associated with theet cheated out of money
To a certain extent, Murong Yun Shu was happy about that Her natural disposition was calm and she wasn't fond of crowds When her father was still alive, she rarely showed her face in front of people That was also one of the reasons that outsiders were confident Murong House would decline How could a sheltered young lady, who never took a step out of the house, support a business?
However, the people of Murong House knew that this see woman was very business-savvy The only issue lay in whether or not she wished to take over the family business
Murong Yun Shu really wanted to avoid troubleso lady before e But the Heavens cracked a joke on her,her simultaneously lose the protective umbrella of both her father and her husband within one week
She didn't have fei, only aware that he was the young jian Manor and her future husband If it weren’t for this , her hand-written letter would have probably already been in his hands, asking hie
She truly didn't expect hiement In only five days, he already didn't want to be related to Murong House because of their unstable situation?
Adjusting the cloak on her shoulders, Murong Yun Shu gazed at the night sky outside theFor the first tihed
On the 15th each o to the temple to burn incense This , she was sitting on the soft bearing Murong House's crest, heading for Wanyun tee, they encountered a large and grandiose bride escort procession on top of it, that obstructed their way
”Miss, it's Mingjian Manor's bride escort procession” Lu'er spoke through gritted teeth as she leaned toward theof the sedan chair
Murong Yun Shu frowned, then lifted theblinds to ask unhappily, ”Isn't the e already off?” She didn't have an opinion about fei before, but now…she would rather
”Theyto Zhenyuan Escort Services4” Lu'er whispered, cursing Fang Hongfei on the inside Heartless, ungratefulhim as the family's son-in-law for all those years was in vain!
Zhenyuan Escort Services was a prestigious and highly recognized escort business in Jinling Ruhter as pretty as a flower She was appointed as 'Jianghu's5 finest beauty'
Who knehether Fang Hongfei got together with Lin Shui'er after he broke off the engagement, or much earlier than that
Disdain flashed in Murong Yun Shu's eyes before she put down the blinds and sat straight once again ”That's none of our business Proceed”
”But they've stopped in thethe way”
After a few seconds of gru Yun Shu suddenly spoke to Lu'er fros don't block people's path Make him follow their example”
”…Miss, you're gettinglady She was more like an ordinary human like that
”Mhm If he won't let us pass, I can be even meaner”
Lu'er's expression changed froht to worshi+p With her chin up and her chest out, shelady said that good dogs don't block people's path Unless you want to be called a vicious dog, quickly make way”
Hearing that, Fang Hongfei's face turned green He didn't mind the littleYun Shu's sedan chair ”What is this about?”
Murong Yun Shu didn't get off the sedan chair, speaking indifferently from behind the blinds, ”I'd also like to know”
”Don't act stupid! I already knew you wouldn't willingly accept breaking our engagement If you have a condition, just open your mouth and say it I can certainly meet it”
