I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times Chapter 218

Chapter 218 Even if the King of Heaven comes, I will break off the engagement

 Originally, Ling Chu was worried that Guo Rong would not marry her again after seeing Zhao Jingming's disgusting scene.

Unexpectedly, she underestimated the attractiveness of the position of Princess Zhao Guogong.

 She was quite satisfied with the result, "Congratulations to Miss Guo for finding the right man, and congratulations to Mrs. Wu for finding a son-in-law who will ride a dragon."

Suddenly hearing a voice coming from behind, Zhao Jingming's expression froze and he turned around with a gloomy face.

"How will you be here?"

Ling Chu glanced at him.

you still need to ask?

 Of course I came here specifically to expose your scandal!

“Mr. Zhao, since you have made a lifelong commitment to Miss Guo, I can't stand in your way. However, I'd better cancel our engagement first, lest Miss Guo's stomach becomes impatient.

It's better to choose a day than to hit it, let's do it today. Please wait a moment, Mr. Zhao. I will ask my parents to come to cancel the engagement when I return home. "

For some reason, Zhao Jingming felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that Ling Chu had no nostalgia for the marriage.

Seeing him frowning and not speaking, Guo Rong felt unhappy.

First he puffed up his belly, then pulled Zhao Jingming's sleeves, shook them, and shouted softly, “Cousin.”

Wu glanced at Zhao Jingming and deliberately said to Ling Chu, "Although Miss Ling and Jingming are not related by fate, there is no need to feel sad.

 Without the marriage in Zhao Guogong's mansion, there may be a better marriage waiting for you.

 Isn't that right, Jing Ming? "

Zhao Jingming knew that Wu's last question was to knock him down deliberately.

In order to appease Wu and Guo Rong, Zhao Jingming naturally could only nod, "Since Miss Ling wants to terminate the engagement today, I happen to have the same intention."

Hearing Zhao Jingming's words, Ling Chu's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Jingming was shaken by the smile on her face, and suddenly felt a little dazzling.

　　After originally learning that he was engaged to Ling Mansion, Zhao Jingming had always resisted the marriage.

 When he learned that his fiancée had been fostered in a Taoist temple since she was a child, he became even more unhappy with her.

What's more, the Ling family has been defeated. If he marries a girl from the Ling family, not only will it not bring any help to his career in the future, it will even hinder him.

 For such a marriage, Zhao Jingming had been looking forward to dissolving it as soon as possible.

However, he never thought that Ling Chu was more eager to cancel the marriage than he was.

He wanted to break off the engagement. Not only was she not sad at all, she was actually full of joy.

 Without any reluctance.

It seemed like giving him up was a great joy.

 But why should she?

The Ling Mansion has been defeated and is nothing more than a commoner.

And he, the Duke of Zhao, is a famous dignitary in Kyoto, and his talent and appearance, Zhao Jingming, are also among the best in the capital. Now he is the eldest son of Duke Zhao, and he will still be the Duke of Zhao in the future.

Why should she abandon such an outstanding fiancé like him?

 Cancel his marriage. With the current status of the Ling family, it is impossible to find a better marriage than him.

 She shouldn't have reacted this way.

In his imagination, if he wants to break off the engagement, she should be like those infatuated women, extremely reluctant to let him go, crying and begging, and trying her best to keep him.

 Even crying, making trouble, and hanging herself to force him not to abandon her. Zhao Jingming was originally looking forward to breaking off the engagement, but thinking of the joyful smile on Ling Chu's face, he couldn't help but want to ruin it.

Lingchu had no idea what Zhao Jingming was thinking. She had already rushed home with her maid.

No matter what happens this time, she will call off the marriage.

Seeing that Zhao Jingming and Ling Chu were about to break off their engagement, Guo Rong's face was filled with pride. She was finally going to be the crown prince's concubine.

Wu was also very satisfied and had already begun to think about it. After Zhao Jingming terminated the engagement, she would immediately discuss the marriage with Mrs. Zhao Guogong.

 Without the engagement contract with Ling Mansion, let's see what excuse her sister-in-law can use to refuse the marriage.

Although Zhao Jingming could tell what Wu and Guo Rong were thinking at a glance, he did not say anything about it. Instead, he pretended to be casual and said, "By the way, aunt, why are you and Rongrong here?"

Mrs. Wu was worried that her daughter would tell her that they were here to catch him for cheating, so she quickly said, "I heard that Rongrong's father was drunk and broke into other people's homes. He still refused to leave. Unless I said it was him." s home.

I was not worried that he would be beaten, so I hurriedly brought people over. I didn't expect that the person who sent the letter turned out to be lying, and I don't know what he was thinking. "

Although Zhao Jingming could see that Wu was not telling the truth, he did not continue to ask. He only planned to avoid her later and ask Guo Rong again.

 He always felt that it was definitely not an accident that Wu and Guo Rong were able to uncover his secret.

It is also very strange that Ling Chu appears here.

Zhao Jingming felt gloomy thinking about what he heard about her a few days ago.

 He had an intuition that what happened today might be related to her.

Could it be that she knew his secret and wanted to use this as a reason to force him to break off the engagement?

She is so eager to draw a clear line with him?

Guo Rong is going to marry Zhao Jingming. Mrs. Wu doesn't want today's incident to spread out, so as not to ruin the reputation of her daughter and son-in-law. She is giving instructions to the maids and women brought here not to let them spread Zhao Jingming's secret.

It's just that although Wu can silence the servants of Zhongqinbo Mansion, she can't control the people watching the fun outside.

At this time, she already regretted that in order to ruin the reputation of Wen'an County Lord, she deliberately let people from outside follow to watch the fun.

It's useless to just regret it. Although those people were civilians, there were too many of them, and she couldn't possibly silence them all.

Guo Rong saw that Zhao Jingming seemed unhappy since Ling Chu left.

Pursing her lips, she deliberately leaned closer to Zhao Jingming, put her head on his shoulder, and rubbed his arm. When he came back to his senses and looked over, he said softly, "Cousin, I'm tired, let's go back."

Smelling the fragrance of Guo Rong, Zhao Jingming came to his senses, nodded, and helped her out.

 After Lingchu returned home, he did not go back to his own courtyard, but went to the main hall.

 Just when the meal was being prepared, the flower hall was full of people.

From Mrs. Ling Shangshu to Mrs. Ling Shangshu, down to the aunts in each room, as well as the younger generation, no one is left behind, they are all there.

After Ling Chu greeted the two people above him, he didn't beat around the bush, but went straight to the point.

 “Grandpa, grandma, I want to break off the engagement…”

Mrs. Tai frowned, but before she could speak, Mrs. Dong slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Sister Chu, do you still see me as a mother in your eyes? I have told you time and time again that an engagement is not a child's play, and you cannot break it off again, but you have disobeyed me again and again. Are you determined to make me angry to death? You are willing to be a mother, right?”

Seeing Mrs. Dong's anger, the second and third ladies learned the lesson from before. Although they didn't say anything, their eyes were full of gloating.

Lingchu was not moved by Dong's anger at all. Even if the King of Heaven and I came today, she would break off the engagement.
