Moreover, what she just said in public was not so much for her own benefit as it was an attempt to cover up something, which made others feel that she was making her cover-up even more obvious.
Nangong Xin's mouth was blocked and his body was wrapped in clothes, but he was still unconscious, groaning and breathing heavily from time to time, reminding everyone what he had just said and done.
The group walked towards the banquet hall.
On the way, Nangong Yu hugged He Xi tightly, refusing to leave even a step, as if she was a treasure that he had lost and found again, and would be lost if he let go.
What the people around him said and did was completely forgotten by him.
After entering the banquet hall, Nangong Yu suddenly hugged Xi Yue and walked to the front of Old Madam Nangong who was sitting in the first seat, and said in a clear and steady voice: "Grandmother, now that Xi Yue is back, please host the engagement banquet for us."
After these words were spoken, the whole place became even quieter, and everyone was frightened by Nangong Yu's actions.
Is this Nangong Yu stupid? Doesn't he understand what the timing and appearance of Xiyue's return, as well as what Nangong Xin said, mean
Old Madam Nangong also showed an embarrassment on her face. She looked at He Xi, then at Nangong Yu, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Nangong Yu's face darkened, and he said slowly: "If grandma is unwilling to preside over it, then your grandson can only announce it himself. Today, I will make a marriage contract with Xiyue no matter what, and no one can stop me!"
Madam Nangong's face froze, with a look of disbelief in her eyes.
Lu Zhixi, who was standing below, finally couldn't help it at this time. She walked forward and looked at He Xi with kindness, "Student Xiyue, can you tell us where you went and what happened just now? We have all been worried about you for a long time, and now we all want to know the truth."
Yun Jingxue also pretended to be concerned and said, "Yes, Xiyue, you seem to be injured, and your clothes are torn. What happened? Do you want to ask a doctor from the Medical Association to take a look at you? If you are really injured, you must not endure it. The Nangong family will definitely seek justice for you."
As he said this, he glanced suggestively at Nangong Xin standing beside him. Even a fool could tell what the expression on his face meant.
The people below were whispering to each other, and their eyes were full of subtlety when they looked at He Xi.
Some people felt pity, some sighed, and some people looked down on him and mocked him: A man has been abused by others, but he still has the nerve to show up in public. Shouldn't he die to prove his innocence
Nangong Yu's face was cold, and the bloody murderous aura in his eyes was faintly visible again.
He Xi suddenly grabbed Nangong Yu's hand, looked up at him and said, "Nangong Yu, aren't you curious about where I went? What happened in the past hour?"
"I don't care!" Nangong Yu reached out and hugged her tightly, trembling as if he was afraid that she would disappear. "Xi'er, I just want you to come back safely. You are the only one I love no matter what. As for those who hurt you, I will make them regret coming into this world."
But at this moment, the only thing he wanted to do, the only thing he couldn't wait to do, was to make a marriage contract with Xiyue and announce to the world that Xier was his wife, his only wife!
Nangong Hua suddenly sneered, pointed at the tattered robe and the ring-shaped jade pendant beside him, and said grimly: "Xi Yue, are these two things yours?" (To be continued)
