The cold wind blew slowly. In the cold winter, it made people shiver uncontrollably. A faint white smoke with a sweet smell pierced through the cold air that only belonged to winter, and waves of warmth flowed through.
With a leisurely mood, she sat in the garden in front of Cuixuan's small wooden house. Cuixuan Lingling held a cup of tea that had been painstakingly planted for three years. It was difficult for it to grow in Taiwan. Now, it could finally be made into flower tea for people to drink. Her morning breath slowly dissipated in this cup of flower tea with a strong fragrance.
It was rare for her to be in a good mood to sip. She could not help but smell the fragrance of the flower tea. After feeling the fragrance, she drank it.
It was rare for her to be in such a good mood in a family that was fighting for power. Usually, she was filled with thoughts of how to defeat others. How could she be in such a good mood like now? It was too late to seek peace of mind, let alone have a good mood to drink.
It was not easy for her to have time to rest. Of course, she would relax and have a good cup of tea. If it weren't for the wooden house that her grandfather had given her, she would probably have exploded.
After taking another sip of the flower tea, Jade Mystic Lingling looked up at the horizon, which was like an ocean in the sky, and her thoughts suddenly sank into her memories...
After graduating from university and splitting things with her friends, her life was like a train that had derailed. Before she could even adapt to society, she was dragged into the dispute of the Cuixuan family. She was at a loss for what to do as she was burdened with so many complicated matters. When she was able to cope with it, she realized that she was very different from before.
Not only did she forget her attitude, but she also forgot many things.
Sigh! How nostalgic!
Holding the hot flower tea in her hand, she looked at the sky and sighed helplessly.
This was…
Looking at the contract paper in her hand that was tightly gripped by her hand, Cui Xuan Ling Ling's surprise and anger were all displayed on her face. She was just short of waving her hand at the man in front of her and saying," You bastard."
If she really swung her fist at him…Hehehe! The consequences would be unimaginable.
Firstly, he was once her guardian and took care of her life on behalf of her parents abroad. No matter what, even if he did not contribute, he had worked hard. Secondly, his identity was unique in the family. No one could touch him at all. She did not want to become his number one enemy.
The people of the Cui Xuan family could not do anything to him because he had relied on his strength and climbed up by stepping on the failures of others. He had obtained the affirmation of the head of the Cui Xuan family. Who would dare to touch him? He wouldn't dare to even if he was beaten to death!
"Hmm? Ling Ling, you seem to be quite happy. I believe it's right to settle this marriage as soon as possible. As the former guardian, I'm also very happy.”Cuixuan Lingling's guardian before she was twenty years old, Moan. Su De said with a smile, taking her trembling from anger as an agreement.
She was about to be angered to death by his self-righteousness! Anyone could tell that she was angry at the moment. Why did this idiot think that she was happy? Was he brainless or did he misunderstand? No matter what the reason was, she should tell her grandfather to get out of the Cuixuan family.
"Are you an idiot or a retard? Can't you see that I'm angry? You know I'm not happy about this marriage! Don't even think about asking me to marry you!" Her large eyes, which were originally black and white, suddenly narrowed and stared at him suspiciously, as if she wanted to confirm that he was an idiot. She stared at him without blinking.
This person's brain was either fried or problematic. Look! He could still smile after being scolded by her!
Moan said nonchalantly,"Girls shouldn't be so vulgar. Is this Master Cuixuan's most favored granddaughter?" It seemed that she really did not have the appearance of a lady from a noble family.”He paused and then said," I'm not an idiot. When I took over this marriage contract, I also objected. After all, you had a fiancé before. Although it ended without any problems, Old Master was afraid that you wouldn't be able to get married in the future, so he wanted to marry you off as soon as possible so that you wouldn't sigh about your misfortune in the future. Don't say that Old Master doesn't dote on you. He has other intentions.”Although what he said was the opposite of the truth, he was happy to tell this sweet lie.
There were more than 50 families in the Cuixuan family. Excluding Cuixuan Lingling's cousin Danxue Ya and some other families, there were at least 30 families. Due to the large number of branches, the power and financial resources of the Cuixuan family were astounding. Moreover, Master Cuixuan was already old, so he wanted to find an heir to take over the Cuixuan family. Therefore, everyone in the family tried their best to win a place in Lord Cui Xuan's heart. Therefore, they desperately pushed aside the existence of other obstacles.
Cuixuan Lingling's parents were an example. Before they gave birth to Lingling, they were ostracized by others. In order to have a better environment to survive, they swore that they would never appear in front of Master Cuixuan and moved abroad. Only then did the people who ostracized them stop.
However, when Lingling's parents gave birth to her, those who ostracized her parents began to notice her existence. Since it was her parents who swore not to appear in front of Master Cui Xuan again, Cui Xuan Lingling did not make any promises, so their target became Cui Xuan Lingling again.
Master Cuixuan was not blind. He also knew about the matters in the family and had always been quietly observing. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and gave him an order. He wanted this elusive person to be Lingling's guardian until she was twenty years old, so that she could grow up safely under his wings.
The reason why Lord Cui Xuan did this undoubtedly gave rise to a thought in the minds of those who were ostracizing Cui Xuan Ling Ling! It was Master Cuixuan who wanted to hand over his business and power to his granddaughter. Although he was anxious and angry, he could not do anything about it. They knew that she had previously arranged a marriage agreement with a person, but in the end, the engagement was canceled because the man cheated on her.
When everyone knew that the person supporting her was Moan, they could only swallow their anger and wait for her to turn twenty.
Now that she was twenty-three years old, she had long left his wings and was under the pressure of those people. At first, she was afraid, but in the end, her unyielding personality overcame it and she was no longer afraid of them.
Although it was good that she had the ability to protect herself, there was no guarantee that those who wanted to deal with her would not use more dangerous methods. Therefore, after thinking about it, Master Cuixuan arranged two marriages for her, marrying her to an outsider that even the Cuixuan family looked down on, so that they would not put pressure on Lingling or even do more dangerous things.
Because of these reasons, Moan kept to what Master Cuixuan had said to him. He must not let Lingling discover their intentions! This was the only way for Ling Ling to avoid the people who wanted to deal with her!
"I don't have anyone who wants me, at least I'm much better than a guy who only knows how to lie! Didn't you find me a fiancé last time? In the end, didn't Grandpa know what kind of person he was?”She would be so angry! If it was a normal man, it would have been fine. But when she saw the other information attached to the marriage contract that stated the other party's occupation, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood!
The boss of an advertising company was a liar! Having studied advertising design, she had heard about the meaning of advertising from her predecessors and personally designed those advertising cases. She regarded those who worked in advertising as liars! Even if he wasn't the boss of an advertising company, the other occupation he had written on the list would still anger her to death!
A loan shark consultant! If she wanted to marry a person who cheated for a living, it would be better to let her plant herself in the flowerbed! She really couldn't understand what her grandfather, who had always doted on her, was thinking. He actually set up such a marriage contract for her that she scoffed at. She would never marry him even if she was beaten to death!
Her good friends Xing Huiqin and Ou Pingyu from university had never given up on their other half of their classes! Xing Huiqin's partner was her ex-fiancé!
He cheated money for a living! Humph!
Moan's face suddenly turned serious, and she looked at her with the face that Cui Xuan Ling Ling was so familiar with. "You have to know that no one can resist the old master's words. Moreover, even if you object, it's useless. Unless you can change his mind, your marriage will be decided like this. The last time, it was because the man cheated on you, not because I made a mistake. Moreover, this engagement has been set for a long time. He didn't want to bring it up at first, but for your own good, he had no choice but to give you to someone else!”With that, he opened the door handle, closed the door with a bang, and turned to leave.
Cui Xuan Ling Ling was stunned, not understanding what he was doing.
After a long time, she came back to her senses and shouted.
He had forgotten to return the marriage contract to Moan. Did this mean that she had agreed to the marriage? No!
Moan, that old traitor!
In order to achieve his goal, he had no choice but to lie.
If he didn't do that, he was afraid that everything would slip away from his hands. Therefore, the best method was to lie.
In front of a white church, a tall figure stood there without moving. He had a handsome face that made men envious and women intoxicated. At this moment, he was looking at the cross on the roof of the church like an idiot, his mind wandering off somewhere.
It didn't matter if he was guilty or guilty. Anyway, the reason he came here was to cleanse his soul and make up for the sins he had committed before.
"Instead of doing this, it's better not to lie before.”
The person who walked over and stood next to him was his long-time friend and enemy, Zuo Xiang Die, who even had a deeper relationship with him. She said in a cold tone. Standing next to him, compared to his tall figure, she, who was not considered petite and slender, seemed much weaker.
Closing his eyes, Bi Qiqi didn't take Zuo Xiang Die's words to heart. He brushed the hair covering his forehead, and a handsome face that made people scream involuntarily appeared. "I have no choice. I have to do this for Zi Xin and me.”The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. In the warm, sunny weather, his smile was like the smile of a god.
Left Xiang Die sighed. Didn't she know that he wouldn't change? Then why didn't she give up and still said the words she used to advise him? It seemed that she still hadn't learned her lesson and had found the worst trouble for herself. Pfft!
There was a reason for him to lie. It was to protect his little sister. She was the apple of his eye. This reason could not be more justified.
However, it sounded like he was finding an excuse for himself. In fact, even if he did not lie, he could still protect her!
"Zi Xin is really innocent. She actually still trusts you, her brother, and treats you like a god.”Zuo Xiang Die glared at him. Actually, she had hidden many things from Zi Xin, but she had no choice. Bi Qiji had lied to her that his job was to protect humans. It was ridiculous.
What a joke. His sister was not his alone. She had the right to control her, right? This lying brother had lied to her countless times!
"Are you that envious?" Bi Qiji heard the tone and implied meaning in her words, so he simply said,"Why don't you take her over? She's your sister too.”As soon as he finished speaking, his face was immediately rewarded with a burning pot sticker. It was so painful that he wanted to scream. However, he would not fight back because he knew that he could not say these words to the Zuo sisters, and he said it on purpose.
The deceased head of the Bi family and the mother of the Zuo sisters, who was now far away overseas, were once lovers. However, their relationship was very special. It was a relationship between a mistress and a lover. At that time, both of them were already married, but they could not resist the call of love and were deeply attracted to each other.
Originally, this kind of relationship could have been kept a secret forever, but there was a small mistake in the middle. Later on, the Zuo family's madam unexpectedly became pregnant with the Bi family's old master's child, which was now Zi Xin. At that time, Bi Qiji was about seventeen years old.
However, Zi Xin's existence did not separate them. Instead, she was accepted by both families and treated as their own.
Since the Bi family only had one son, Zi Xin was given the surname of the Bi family and became the fourth member of the Bi family. However, this did not reduce the love the two families had for Zi Xin.
Later, Master Bi died in a plane crash, and there were some problems with Zi Xin's ownership. The Zuo sisters requested to obtain the right to adopt Zi Xin.
Logically speaking, if something happened to one of the child's parents, the child would have to be raised by the other party. However, the mother of the Zuo sisters came forward to stop her. She said that if Zi Xin grew up and found out that she was born to a mistress in the future, society's view of her might cause her to go crazy. Thus, she hoped that Zi Xin would never find out that the Zuo and Bi families were related.
Therefore, Zi Xin's custody was given to Bi Qiji, who was an adult at that time. Until now, she had always treated Madam Bi as her biological mother, and had no idea that Madam Zuo was the one who gave birth to her.
"If I could raise her, I would have taken her away long ago!”Left Xiang Die retracted her hand. "Even now, Zi Xin doesn't know about this!”She would never forget her mother's advice. She had said that she could not let Zi Xin know that they were sisters. Therefore, before Zi Xin found out the truth, they would never say anything!
For the sake of Zi Xin, they could do anything they wanted!
"That's true." Bi Qiji stroked her flushed cheeks and didn't feel that what she said was wrong at all. "You didn't come to find me to tell me about Zi Xin, did you?”He was sure that Zuo Xiang Die must have something important to attend to. Otherwise, she would usually stay at the hotel to work, and the two of them wouldn't have met.
She glanced at him and a strange smile appeared on her perfect face. "I'm sorry, Mother wanted me to give this to you.”She smiled and took out a folded piece of paper from her Louis Vuitton bag that she carried with her. The paper was yellowed from age.
When her mother told her about this, she still didn't quite believe it. However, after peeking at some of the contents on the paper, she had no choice but to believe it. His mother had said that his father had privately arranged a marriage for him, but he had instructed his mother not to take it out until the time was right.
In other words, now that her mother wanted her to give the paper contract to Bi Qiji, did it mean that it was time for him to get married? When she thought of this swindler getting married, she couldn't help but laugh for a while. Then, she wondered who his partner was.
Bi Qiqi took the paper and immediately opened it. Just as he opened the paper, a few lines of big words attracted all his attention and breath.
He had an engagement? And it was decided a long time ago?
What the hell!
The sun gradually set in the west. In the main house of the Cuixuan family, there was a study room that did not even need to turn on the lights under the sunlight. That study room was the study room of the elder of the Cuixuan family, and it was also his favorite place.
In the study room, Moan was smoking a cigarette. Her eyes were filled with interest as she looked at the old man sitting behind the cypress desk with a dignified and inviolable expression.
The old man on the desk was none other than the elder of the Cuixuan family! Emerald Black Tortoise.
"Old Master, as you expected, Lingling is very dissatisfied with this marriage.”Moan spoke indifferently and exhaled the smoke that she had inhaled. She exhaled and inhaled, making the Emerald Black Tortoise a little angry. He hated people smoking and drinking in his study, but Moan, the adopted son he had raised, would not listen to him no matter what he said. She even challenged his patience again and again.
"Stop smoking. Actually, Lingling's reaction was completely within my expectations.”As a grandfather, he had naturally guessed his granddaughter's reaction. Otherwise, wouldn't it be an insult to him, as a grandfather and the head of the Cuixuan family?
He promised that the failure from before would never happen again!
After seeing Emerald Black Tortoise's gratified smile, Moan said emotionally," Old Master, you should smile more often. Don't always have a straight face. Your face can easily scare people to death, scare children to tears, and…" Just as he was about to give a bunch of examples, he was interrupted by the Emerald Black Tortoise.
"Don't talk nonsense with me. Also, I've never scared anyone to death, nor have I scared a child to tears. Which eye of yours saw such a thing?”Cui Xuanwu glared at the rude Moan in front of her.
She really didn't understand why he had adopted him in the first place.
" Hehe…" Moan laughed. "Are you asking me to protect Ling Ling? However, she was about to get married. Those bastards probably wouldn't pay attention to her.”Unless Old Master was a busybody or Ling Ling had nothing to do, she would cause trouble.
"Those prodigals! I'd rather leave the money to the innocent child, you, Lingling, and that person than give it to them!”When he thought about how other than Mo An and Ling Ling, the rest of the Cui Xuan family loved money, Cui Xuan Wu felt very uncomfortable. Those prodigals would do all kinds of evil things. If they wanted his money, they would have to do it in their next life! He already had a plan in mind.
"Wait, there should be someone else! Isn't Dan Xueya included?" That demonic woman that everyone hated so much. Once he met her, his style and attitude would be completely disrupted by her. He was not afraid of anyone but Dan Xueya. Dan Xueya was Ling Ling's cousin, and the two of them interacted frequently. When he was Ling Ling's guardian, it was difficult for him not to see her.
He felt ashamed!
"That girl Xue Ya…she was born from a side branch and is the treasure of an aristocratic family. She can't be counted as part of our family.”The Emerald Black Tortoise couldn't help but break out in cold sweat when he thought of Dan Xueya's troublesome child.
It was true that she was born from a mistress, but her ability was the number one terrorist that everyone feared. As long as she was there, that place would definitely not be peaceful.
Fortunately, she did not want the wealth and power of the Cuixuan family. She had built up the image of an aristocratic family with her own hands. Otherwise, the Cuixuan family would definitely not be her match.
She was too terrifying.
" Letting Lingling marry a liar might be the best way. Lingling's personality is a little straightforward, but that's because she left her parents 'side since she was young. The environment has cultivated her personality. There's no other way..." Cui Xuanwu sighed.
He hoped that nothing would happen this time. With his previous experience, he was trembling with fear this time.
Moan smiled and suddenly remembered something. "Old Master! Can you let me handle the fake secretary who broke into the study that day?”He put out the cigarette and looked at the old man with a half-smile. It was difficult to hide the excitement in his tone.
Secretary? Oh! "I'll leave it to you!" Emerald Xuanwu promised Moan. Then, he lowered his head to look at the bill on the desk and started counting.
Moan smiled happily and bowed politely to him. "Old Master, don't overwork yourself. Be careful of your body, lest Madam Cui Xuan, who is beside God, spits at you!”He whistled teasingly and left.
Hehe…this game is much more fun. A woman who had once been deceived and a guy who made a living by deceiving. This pair must be very interesting.#
