Chapter 79
After Ye Lingxi said this, she straightened up, without giving Ye Qingwan any more eyes, she raised her eyes to look at Lu Yiyuan and said, "Xiao Ran has already made her words very clear, she doesn't want to see you again, Shizi Lu, You should come back, please."

"That's a matter between me and Xue Ran," Lu Yiyuan frowned, "Even if you really are the second Miss Ye family who came back from the dead, you don't have the qualifications to order me."

"Xue Ran, let me say it again, I just made a slip of the tongue after drinking on the day of the flower viewing banquet, and I didn't really intend to divorce."

When he said this, his voice sank obviously, and there was suppressed dissatisfaction in his tone, "In the end, this is just a private matter between the two of us, you really have to say it in front of so many people, let them Seeing a joke?"

The original owner didn't have much contact with Lu Yiyuan before, but it was just a short time, and through this conversation, Ye Lingxi had basically figured out Lu Yiyuan's temperament.

He may not be a bad person, but he has the common faults that most men have - arrogance, great face, and self-centeredness with little concern for others' feelings.

Originally, it was because he was wrong to propose the divorce in public, but now he looks like he wants to blame Xue Ran, which is too much.

Ye Lingxi couldn't listen any longer, and was about to refute what he said, but felt someone gently tug on her sleeve.

She turned her head, and saw that Xue Ran, who had been hiding behind her before, had straightened her back, stepped forward and walked in front of Lu Yiyuan.

There were many people at the flower viewing banquet last time, and Xue Ran also went there, but she kept wearing a white gauze hat to cover her face. Lu Yiyuan only knew that her face was ruined, but he didn't see how her face was ruined.

Suddenly seeing Xue Ran's face at this moment, he was stunned for a moment, and an expression of shock and disgust appeared on his face involuntarily.

Xue Ran's eyes were fixed on him all the time, and she could see all the subtle reactions on his face and his quickly moving eyes away.

She sneered, and when she saw a person thoroughly, she didn't feel the soreness and pain in her heart before. She just felt that it was pathetic and ridiculous for her to seek life and death for such a person.

She clenched her fists secretly to sort out her emotions. When she spoke, her voice was calm and gentle, as if she was talking about something completely irrelevant to her.

"You said you didn't really want to break off the engagement with me, so let me ask you, 'If Xue Ran's face was really ruined, I wouldn't marry her, and I would divorce her on the spot, who wants to marry an ugly monster! 'Is this what you said on the day of the flower viewing feast?"

"I said it, but..." Lu Yiyuan wanted to explain, but Xue Ran didn't give him a chance to explain, so he continued to ask.

"Those people also said at the time that you were just joking after drinking too much, and you didn't take it seriously. But you also said, 'I said this in front of the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine can testify for me.' This is also true, right?"

Lu Yiyuan's face was slightly pale, and his eyes became a little panicked, "I really just drank too much, I..."

"Everyone who participated in the flower viewing feast that day knew about it, even the imperial concubine and empress knew about it. If a man promises to keep his word, he will naturally do what he says. Why do you have to go back on your word now?"

"It's not repentance!" Lu Yiyuan was really anxious, his voice was full of impatience and urgency, "I said that I was just drunk after drinking!"

"Whether it's drunk or not, you said it, and everyone present heard it. It has been spread in Qiongdu City, and everyone believes it."

"I, Xue Ran, are already a joke in Qiongdu City. Now you tell me that you have repented... Then I have been ridiculed for nothing? Do I deserve it?"

"Ran Ran..." Lu Yiyuan reached out to grab Xue Ran's hand, but Xue Ran avoided it.

She raised her eyes to look at him, looked straight into his eyes and asked, "You said you just made a slip of the tongue after drinking, and you didn't really want to divorce, okay, I believe you."

"Now you are awake, and you have seen what my face looks like now."

Xue Ran rolled up her sleeves as she spoke, and stretched out her black-spotted arms to Lu Yiyuan to show him, "Not only my face, but my body is also ruined now, covered with such strange spots, even the imperial doctor said Even if it is cured, there will be scars in the end."

Lu Yiyuan's brows were tightly furrowed, he stared at the freckles on her arm, and then couldn't bear to look away.

Xue Ran sneered, and the sarcasm in her eyes became more intense, "You are indeed right in one sentence, I am just an ugly monster now."

"Lu Yiyuan, I'll give you another chance now. You think it through before answering. I'm like this... Are you really willing to marry me?"

Lu Yiyuan was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll marry you!"

"It's been ten years since we made a marriage contract. If I don't abide by the marriage contract just because your appearance is ruined, what will the people of Qiongdu think of me!"

Hearing what he said, Xue Ran's heart became colder and colder, but the corners of her lips curled up into a smile, "You married me according to the marriage contract, others will think that you are committed and faithful. But they will also laugh at you The concubine you married is an ugly monster, don't you care about that?"

Xue Ran's last sentence obviously touched Lu Yiyuan's heart, he was so proud of himself, and he found this situation unbearable just thinking about it, but if he didn't marry Xue Ran, he would be stabbed in the back.

His brows were twisted into a knot, as if he was trying to weigh the balance, and after a long pause, he said again: "It's okay, after you get married, you just don't leave the house, only the backyard of the inner house, you don't need to go out to see outsiders, it's been a long time Naturally, no one will gossip anymore.”

"Since we have made a marriage contract, I will be responsible to you!"

What Lu Yiyuan said was swearing, but only Xue Ran sneered, "Responsible? What you call being responsible to me means keeping me locked up in the inner house for the rest of my life, so as to preserve your good reputation?"

Lu Yiyuan didn't expect Xue Ran to say such words, his heart sank, he opened his mouth to explain, but he heard Xue Ran say: "Since you feel ashamed to marry an ugly monster like me, why do you marry?"

"Lu Yiyuan, I, Xue Ran, am not a tool you use to save your face. You don't need an ugly wife who makes you feel ashamed, and I don't need a husband who only treats me as a tool."

"What, I didn't mean that!" Lu Yiyuan interrupted her sharply, "Can't you talk properly? Now... now that your face has become like this, what can you do if you don't marry me? Do you really want to shave? You can't be a sister-in-law if you lose your hair!"

"Yes!" Xue Ran's decisive words blocked all the rest of Lu Yiyuan's words.

Lu Yiyuan's eyes widened in shock, and Xue Ran looked directly at him, and said coldly, "Lu Yiyuan, you heard me clearly, this time it's not you who are retiring the engagement, but me."

"I, Xue Ran, will never marry you even if I really fall to the point where no one wants to marry me, even if I die!"
