I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times Chapter 217

Zhao Jingming's mind was racing. No matter what, he had to reverse the current situation and preserve his reputation.

Hearing the sound of Mrs. Wu thanking the doctor outside and asking someone to prepare the carriage, Zhao Jingming knew that they were planning to leave.

If he doesn't seize the opportunity to defend himself and lets them leave like this, then rumors about him will soon fly everywhere.

Zhao Jingming couldn't think anymore, put away the calculating look on his face, and hurried out.

Outside, Zhao Jingming choked and said to Wu with a painful tone, "Aunt, Jingming was wronged, and I was framed."

Wu's movement to leave paused. She didn't want to look at her nephew anymore, but after hearing his words and thinking of her difficult sister-in-law, she still had the courage to look at him.

 “Are Jing Ming's words serious?”

Although she just glanced at it, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but think of what her mother-in-law had just said, and her stomach twitched.

I took several deep breaths quietly and suppressed the nausea that made me want to retching.

　　Wu thought she had done something covert, but Zhao Jingming was so sensitive, how could he not have discovered it.

 His aunt found him disgusting, so Zhao Jingming was of course angry.

From his point of view, raising that person is no different from raising someone else's house.

Zhao Jingming was dissatisfied, but he couldn't show it to Wu at this time.

He walked quickly to Guo Rong and said, "Cousin, you know me best. My heart has always been with you. You are the only one I like. How can I have thoughts about other people?"

Seeing Zhao Jingming looking at her affectionately and painfully, Guo Rong's heart suddenly softened, "Cousin, are you really being framed?"

"Cousin, I have never lied to you. You are the only one in my heart."

Although Guo Rong couldn't bear to see Zhao Jingming's painful expression, she still had doubts, "If that's the case, then...why is my cousin in this house?"

Actually, what she wanted to ask was why Zhao Jingming slept with that person.

"Last night, some friends invited me to go on a lake tour. I was obviously reciting poems and writing poems with everyone on the flower boat. I remember drinking three glasses of wine. I was worried about being rude after drinking, so I originally wanted to leave early. . But I don't know why I didn't go back home, but showed up in this house.”

Zhao Jingming pretended to try to recall the scene last night, frowned and said, "I remember that when I drank the last glass of wine last night, I felt that the taste was a little weird, but I was already a little drunk at the time, and I was eager to get it. I left to go home, so I didn't pay much attention.”

At this point, Zhao Jingming's expression suddenly changed, "Could it be that on the flower boat, I won first place in the poetry competition, and some people didn't like me, so... so they drugged me and wanted to use this despicable method. Destroy me?"

Zhao Jingming punched the wall angrily, "If I know who wants to harm me, I will never let him go."

One punch was not enough, so Zhao Jingming became more determined and punched the wall several times.

Seeing how angry and painful he was, Guo Rong felt heartbroken. She quickly reached out and grabbed his arm, "Cousin, this is not your fault. You must not hurt yourself."

Zhao Jingming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Guo Rong had regained his attitude towards him. Ignoring Wu who was standing aside, she held Guo Rong's hands tightly with both hands.

With a painful look on his face, he said, "Cousin, it's my fault that makes you disappointed in me. I shouldn't trust others too much and be unprepared, so I fall into other people's ways. After this time, I will definitely learn to be humble in the future. "Don't let yourself stand out and make others jealous." "Cousin, can you...can you forget what happened today? How about we do what we did before? When my mother gets well, I will let her go with her." My aunt proposes marriage. Can you be my royal concubine? "

At this point, Zhao Jingming covered his heart and whispered, "Rong Rong, my cousin is going crazy thinking about you. Do you know how uncomfortable it feels to be alone at night? If I can't sleep with you in my arms in the future, , my life would be worse than death..."

Listening to Zhao Jingming's sweet words, Guo Rong's pale face suddenly turned red, "Cousin, stop talking, my mother is still over there. After you return home, let your mother come to propose marriage, and the child and I will Wait for you."

Zhao Jingming's eyes fell on Guo Rong's belly for a moment, and he nodded, “Don't worry, cousin, I will marry you as soon as possible.” Originally, he didn't really want this child, but now he changed his mind.

If today's incident spreads, he can use this child to prove that he likes the girl's family. The fact that he supported that person was completely a rumor.

 Zhao Jingming was mostly relieved after taking care of Guo Rong. He held her hand affectionately and brought her to Mrs. Wu, "Please, for the sake of past friendship, please don't mind Jing Ming's matter.

 When my mother gets well, I will ask her to come to discuss marriage with you and your uncle. In the future, I will definitely treat Rongrong and my children well. "

Although Zhao Jingming looked anxious on his face, he was actually not worried that the Wu family would object to his marrying Guo Rong.

　　Not to mention that Guo Rong is now pregnant with his child, even if she was not, Wu would not object.

Zhao Jingming has always known that whether it is Guo Rong, Wu, or even his uncle, they are all interested in his identity. They wanted Guo Rong to marry him because they wanted to gain benefits from the Duke of Zhao.

It is because of knowing this that Zhao Jingming is so confident and only intends to use the name of the Crown Princess to stabilize Wu and Guo Rong and suppress today's incident. After the matter is over, he will seek marriage with Han Yao.

Seeing Wu frowning and saying nothing, Guo Rong called out softly, "Mother."

Even though what Zhao Jingming just said seemed true, Wu didn't completely believe it.

It's just that…Wu's eyes fell on the two people's clasped hands, and she sighed in her heart.

It doesn't matter whether she believes it or not, her daughter is now Zhao Jingming's and is pregnant with his child. If she didn't marry him, it would be impossible to find a higher-ranking marriage than the Duke of Zhao's family.

After thinking about this, Wu said with seriousness on her face, "Jing Ming, let's pretend that my aunt didn't see what happened today. You are still young, and you must remember that the beauty of a tree will be destroyed by the wind. I hope you will be more open to the outside world in the future. People, you should be more vigilant. Don't let anyone frame you again, you know?”

 Zhao Jingming nodded gratefully, "Jingming must remember his aunt's teachings."

"I only have one daughter, Rongrong. I hope you can treat her well in the future. After you go back, ask your mother to come and propose marriage as soon as possible." Mrs. Wu said, glancing at her daughter's belly meaningfully, "If this continues, , your reputation will not be good in the future.”

“Don't worry, aunt, Jing Ming understands. I will tell my mother after I return home.”

 Whether Wu or Zhao Jingming are very satisfied with this result.

Of course, Ling Chu was also very satisfied.
