The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 32 Are you awake?

"Sister, are you telling the truth?"

He excitedly stepped forward and took Lin Mowan's hand. Lin Mowan did not struggle, nor did she admit it. She just pretended to be coquettish and glared at him with shameful eyes.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Youxi's heart was instantly overjoyed. Without any doubt, he concluded that it was Lin Mowan who took the initiative to ask Shen Weiyuan to marry her. His eyes were full of joy, and he turned around to thank Shen Weiyuan in front of so many people, but Lin Mowan quickly stopped him.

He was puzzled, so she lowered her voice and said, "Don't go. Second Master is unhappy about this matter. He said he still needs to think carefully about it. You'd better not disturb him."

Jiang Youxi hesitated for a moment when he heard this, without doubting anything. He nodded happily and held Lin Mowan's hand in his backhand.

Lin Mowan wanted to break free, but Jiang Youxi wouldn't let her. Just as she was feeling a little disgusted but didn't know what excuse to pull her hand away, she heard a low, teasing voice from the side: "Even after all this, he still refuses to change his bad habits. He deserves it for letting him go out and mess with girls from good families."

The voice was clearly from a girl present, and Jiang Youxi naturally heard it. The expression on his face froze, perhaps instantly recalling his most hated nightmare. Such a humiliating thing was discussed in public by a group of girls, and the anger that had just been calmed down in his heart was ignited again.

He became furious again, his eyes instantly turning red with anger. Ever since the accident, although Jiang Wenqing had asked Shen Weiyuan to suppress the matter as much as possible and ordered no one to discuss it, he even sent someone to clarify and announced to the public that Jiang Youxi had only injured his thigh.

But so many people saw it with their own eyes in Yuxiang Tower. There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. Moreover, in this case, the "wall" was not strong to begin with. In addition, Lin Mowan asked Liu Yinghong to fan the flames behind the scenes, so it should be known to everyone by now.

However, due to pressure from the Shen family and the Jiang family, no one dared to talk about it openly. They all talked about it in private. But today, someone told her that Jiang Youxi had heard it.

Since that incident, he has become more sensitive and suspicious. He would be suspicious for a long time at the slightest sign of trouble. Beating, punching and kicking people is commonplace for him. Sometimes he is crazy and sometimes he is normal. Even the servants of the Jiang family can't help but take a detour when they see him, for fear of being caught and beaten.

Seeing his eyes gradually turning red, the hall was noisy and the subtle discussions made it difficult to hear what was said clearly, but the slight laughter of women stimulated Jiang Youxi's sensitive nerves. To Jiang Youxi, the ordinary laughter between women sounded like people talking about him behind his back.

Knowing that Jiang Youxi's attention was no longer on her, Lin Mowan just stared at him with cold eyes until he let go of her hand and rushed out. Lin Mowan had no intention of stopping him. She watched him madly overturn the table where several girls were chatting and making tea not far away.

There was a loud noise, and the girls were so scared that they quickly stood up, screaming softly and huddled together to hide aside.

At this moment, everyone in the huge banquet hall turned their eyes over. The boiling hot tea and the stove were overturned, and the water was poured on the burning charcoal, making a sizzling sound.

Jiang Youxi clenched his fists and stood in front of the overturned stove and tea. His eyes became redder and he kicked the tea bowl beside him twice, roaring and cursing: "Stinky bitch! It's not your turn to make up stories about me!!"

No one expected Jiang Youxi to go crazy in public. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment for a moment. Some elders had dark faces. The girls whose tables were overturned also hurried to find their elders. The timid ones had already burst into tears.

At this moment, Jiang Wenqing, who was playing chess with Shen Weiyuan, finally reacted and was instantly exposed: "Jiang Youxi! What are you doing!"

Gongshu Tingyue, who walked over quickly, also had a gloomy face. While Jiang Youxi was still immersed in the words he had just heard and was certain that the other party was humiliating him, Gongshu Tingyue raised his hand and slapped him hard on the cheek.

She gritted her teeth, the bulging veins on her forehead revealing her barely concealed anger, and whispered to him, "Are you awake? You're going crazy without considering the occasion!"

Her voice was very low, but one could hear the gritting of teeth, which was frightening. Jiang Youxi stood there, panting, with a ferocious look on his face, as if he had been slapped in the face and understood the situation. He dared not move. Seeing this, Gongshu Tingyue hurriedly adjusted his heartbeat, suppressed his anger, turned around and put on a kind smile, and apologized to the girls who were cowering in the corner one by one.

The servants of the Jiang Mansion also hurried forward to clean up the mess. Jiang Wenqing and Shen Weiyuan also excused themselves before turning around to comfort the frightened guests.

Lin Mowan stood in an unnoticed corner, looking indifferently at Jiang Youxi who was standing in a trance in the banquet hall. From time to time, her eyes swept over Jiang Wenqing and Gong Shu Tingyue who were trying their best to comfort everyone.

Just when she couldn't help laughing in her heart, perhaps it was her keen intuition that made her aware of a not-so-friendly gaze. Lin Mowan's heart tightened, but her face remained normal. After a few glances, she met the owner of that gaze - Bai Yun.

That look didn't seem hostile, but it wasn't kind either. It was more likely to be an examination and warning, or even a hint of judgment from someone in a high position on the targeted prey.

Lin Mowan couldn't help but feel a little strange. Although she knew this person, she thought that there was no intersection between them. She really couldn't figure out how she had offended Bai Yun that made this person stare at her like this.

Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Lin Mowan turned her head calmly, avoiding her sight and trying her best to ignore the slightly burning gaze.

Until the servants cleaned up the mess neatly and "invited" Jiang Youxi to leave, Jiang Wenqing and Gongshu Tingyue comforted the frightened guests. Although they tried their best to apologize, there were still a few families who left with their daughters in anger, and Jiang Wenqing was unable to blame them.

After Jiang Youxi's commotion and destruction, the atmosphere in the banquet hall for the rest of the evening was indescribably weird. It was completely different from the harmonious atmosphere at noon.

Shen Weiyuan didn't like such occasions in the first place, and now that it had become like this, he made an excuse to leave before the dinner started. Jiang Wenqing tried to persuade him to stay several times but to no avail. He also wanted to politely send him to the door, but was politely declined by Shen Weiyuan.

He felt a little depressed, but had no way to vent. Just when he was feeling depressed, the old lady suddenly said, "Sister Wan, why don't you go and see the Second Master off?"

Lin Mowan didn't say anything, nor did she refuse. She just stood up from her seat and saw Shen Weiyuan out.

The carriage of the Marquis's mansion had been parked at the door early and was ready. Lin Mowan followed him out of the mansion and stood in front of the carriage. He paused as he was about to get on the carriage, turned his head and glanced around. Seeing no one else, he whispered, "I'm leaving."

Lin Mowan nodded and watched him get on the carriage. She didn't look away until the carriage was far away. But when she turned around, she saw the person who was not friendly to her at the banquet just now - Bai Yun.

It turned out that after seeing Shen Weiyuan leave, Xiao Sheng obviously didn't want to stay any longer, so he said goodbye to the old lady and left with Bai Yun.

Xiao Sheng just glanced at her and didn't find anything unusual. As the Xiao family's carriage approached, Lin Mowan took the initiative to step aside and wait for them to leave before going back.

Lin Mowan didn't want to cause trouble, but others wouldn't think so. The moment Bai Yun passed by her, she suddenly stopped. The two of them were about the same height. She turned her head to look at Lin Mowan, and Lin Mowan slowly raised her eyes to look at her.

Their eyes met, and she seemed to be waiting for Lin Mowan to speak first. Her eyes were cold, and there was a kind of arrogance as if she didn't take her seriously. Until Xiao Sheng realized something was wrong here and coughed lightly.
