Chapter 388 The Crisis of the Stoke Family ([-])

It's just that they underestimated their sister's mind. Seeing that Xie Fuman, who usually stayed by Richard's side without saying a word, came back to invite him, Su Zixuan naturally knew that he was ordered by Richard, so it was very logical. After Su Zixuan became more careful, Richard's tricks gradually became ineffective, and the nobles around Richard naturally began to gradually realize that he could not call Su Lun, so Richard relied on The chances of enriching one's own pocket are much less, and now Su Zixuan's boyfriend appears out of nowhere, which is undoubtedly a devastating blow to Richard, how can he accept it.Naturally, the banner of opposition was raised at the same time.

Seeing the surrounding voices getting louder and louder, Duke Stoke waved his hands, and the surrounding voices suddenly quieted down. Everyone stared blankly at Duke Stoke, waiting for what he was about to say.

Su Zixuan's appearance was as cold as ice. Facing everyone's opposition, she never said a word, and faced everyone coldly. If compared with the frosty expression, Li Sansi personally thinks that she is definitely better than Lin Qing He also needs to be professional. Su Zixuan grew up in the aristocratic class at the top of the pyramid in the Eagle Empire. As for who should be elegant and who should be cold, they naturally learned the ability from an early age. It's just that Su Zixuan in Haishan City should That's the real her, that's why she wanted to escape, escape from the fate of this family and associate with the cold nobles.

It's just that when seeing his father about to speak now, Su Zixuan's eyes that were originally as cold as Martian night suddenly showed some tenderness, and the next moment, they met Mrs. Selina's eyes.

Mrs. Selina didn't know what kind of expression she had now, her heart was full of complex emotions, seeing Su Zixuan and Li Sansi standing on the stage, how much she wanted to let them be together like this, but as a member of the family From a standpoint, Mrs. Selina knows that she must not do this. For a Duke family, their every move involves the fate of thousands of people. You must know that the Stoke family is spread throughout the Eagle Empire and even the world. There are at least nearly [-] employees in the enterprise. If the Duke of Stoke collapses and the big trees fall, what kind of life will the people who cling to these big trees face.

From this point of view, Mrs. Selina knew that it was absolutely difficult for her to make any choice, because it was already painful.

The Duke of Stoke suppressed everyone's words with both hands, and looked at Su Zixuan and Li Sansi with complex eyes. The man and woman standing on the stage immediately covered up all the light in the world, the Duke of Stoke I felt that my throat was a little dry, and when I spoke, there was even some inflammation and pain, "Su Lun, this is what you said, the man you met in China? It was also the one who made you agree to the marriage contract And in exchange for a man who goes to Haishan City for a week!?"

When the Duke of Stoke said these words, there was silence all around, and everyone fell into a rare silence.Countless pairs of eyes stared at Su Zixuan and Li Sansi on the stage, including the servants in the mansion of the Duke of Stoke, the housekeeper Sahara, the nobles next to him, and the young nobles who were madly pursuing Su Zixuan, and even those lying in bed. On the ground, the bodies of Richard and Scheffman were bound up, as well as those of the Duke of Stoke's cousin O'Neill and the elders of Ireland Elton. These eyes converged on the Duke of Stoke and gathered in the air became a complex emotion.

Su Zixuan nodded, acquiescing to Duke Stoke's question.

There was another commotion in the crowd, and it was even more difficult for the noble youths to accept it. After all, who can accept the woman he fell in love with has another man in his heart?Of course, there are some exceptions.

Li Sansi lowered her voice and whispered in her ear with only Su Zixuan's voice, "Su goblin, is it okay for you to behave like this?"

In return, it was Su Zixuan's pinch on the ribs again, "Don't talk."

The Irish elder poked his head out from the crowd, "Su Lun, you represent our Stoke family. We have already entered into a marriage contract with the Smith family, and you have no right to change it!"

After all, the Irish elder is an elder-level figure of the Stoke family. No one dares not to ignore what he said. Many people have already raised their hands to prove their position.

The Duke of Stoke ignored these boring behaviors, looked at his daughter on the stage, and then looked at Li Sansi next to him, "You once said that this man abandoned you, and now he is looking for you again, like this Man, I can't believe it!"

Li Sansi looked at Su Zixuan next to him with a look of injustice, unable to argue.

Su Zixuan stuck out his tongue at him, and then turned to look at the Duke of Stoke in front of him, "Father, that was a lie I told, but I know that for the benefit of the family, I must marry the Smith family, then It was because I had no choice but to lie to you."

Madam Selina covered her mouth and looked at Su Zixuan and Duke Stoke.

The Duke of Stoke looked at Su Zixuan, his mouth moved, some words swirled in his mouth, but he couldn't come out.

Elton reminded from the side, "You know, my Su Lun, you have already made a marriage contract with the Earl Smith family, and you also know that there is no way to change this, even our Lady Queen. Quan intervenes to prevent a legitimate marriage!"

O'Neill remained silent. The fat man lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What is the origin of this oriental man? Is he a nobleman? Or should he belong to a prince in his family?" Seeing that things were getting more and more rigid, the Irish elder used his usual fox thinking to think about the benefits of the matter.

But Su Zixuan's shaking of the head immediately shattered his illusion without leaving a trace.

"You should marry the Smith family." The Irish elder said simply.

All decision-making power rests with the Duke of Stoke. He is the leader of the Duke's family and also the maker of all family decisions.

"You need to know! Bamar, at the previous elders meeting, we have allowed you to postpone Su Lun's marriage for four months. I request that any decision you make now must consider the will of the family elders, and As for the consequences of going your own way, you must know that the entire family property of the Duke of Stoke cannot be decided by you alone!" Elton followed up and said, which was tantamount to a disguised threat.

The Duke of Stoke was surrounded by voices of opposition. Only a small number of nobles were a little moved by the cross-border love between Miss Su Lun and the Oriental man, and made some voices of approval, but they were overwhelmed by vigorous opposition. go down.The Duke of Stoke opened his hands again, and his voice became quieter. The Duke's final decision was to control the fate of the two people on the stage in front of him.

"Su Goblin, you are really bold!" Li Sansi almost gave Su Zixuan a thumbs up. He originally thought that a wealthy girl like Su Zixuan would never resist the family's will Li Sansi's courage, especially the letter Su Zixuan left him when he left Haishan, made Li Sansi come here without any chance at all, but he did not expect that although the situation turned to the worst, he did not show the worst ending.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm doing it for my own lifelong happiness, so why don't you start your daydreams again? Big!?"

"Wow. No way!" Li Sansi pouted nonchalantly, turned his face to the side, and muttered, "I knew it would be like this."
