When Qu Moying saw Qu Qiuyan, she hesitated for a moment, but when she saw Xu Lipeng walking towards her, she simply walked up to him with confidence.
When it comes to Xu Lipeng's matter, she has no guilt and no fear!
Then he saw Qu Qiuyan glance in his direction, then turned and walked away, as if she didn't see him.
He stopped and did not move forward, quietly waiting for Xu Lipeng to come over. Seeing Xu Lipeng's aggressive look, it seemed as if he was coming to call for an explanation.
Her lips curled slightly. Xu Lipeng and Liu Jingyu? Actually, they are also good candidates...
"Miss Qu Si!" Xu Lipeng strode over, stood in front of Qu Moying, and said in a cold voice, his eyes falling on Qu Moying's face with a gloomy look.
After not seeing her for a while, the Miss Qu Si in front of him seemed like a completely different person. If it weren't for the veil on her face that remained the same, Xu Lipeng almost thought he had recognized the wrong person.
Her figure had also grown taller, revealing her more slender figure. She stood there, looking weak but with a straight body, neither humble nor overbearing. She raised her head slightly, glanced at him, put her hands aside, turned sideways and saluted, gracefully and elegantly, without a trace of uneasiness.
"Meet the Prince of Yongning!"
Compared with Qu Qiuyan just now, Qu Moying's temperament is even higher, as if the one who was carefully cultivated and polished by the family was not the third Miss Qu, but the fourth Miss Qu.
Her face is still invisible, but no one can say that she is not beautiful. Standing in the wind, her sleeves fluttering slightly, her waist is slender, not even thick enough to be held in one hand, and she looks a bit like a fairy.
Even with her eyes covered with a veil, this woman is still an absolutely beautiful lady.
"Fourth Miss Qu, I think I have been very kind to you. Over the years, I have never thought of canceling the engagement and have been wholeheartedly seeking to marry you. Even though Fourth Miss Qu's situation has always been bad, I didn't expect that after she came back, she would definitely cancel my engagement. Just because Yu Qingmeng schemed against me, you just can't tolerate this marriage and have you forgotten the fact that our house has been waiting for you for so many years?"
Xu Lipeng calmed himself down, put away other thoughts in his mind, and said angrily.
"Master Xu, I don't quite understand what you are saying." Qu Moying took a step back and distanced himself from Xu Lipeng.
"Don't you understand? Miss Qu Si, you don't think I don't know that it was you who schemed for me to break off the engagement?" Xu Lipeng became more and more annoyed as he spoke. Some hatred appeared on his handsome face. He took a step forward and wanted to reach out and grab Qu Moying, his face ferocious.
Qu Moying hurriedly took two steps back, avoiding Xu Lipeng's hand, and looked up at Xu Lipeng coldly: "Prince, please respect yourself!"
"Self-respect? How can I respect myself? I have been kind and righteous to your Qu family and to you, but how did you treat me? You hurt me to this extent, and now you are happy?" Xu Lipeng said angrily. Seeing Qu Moying facing him so calmly, a surge of evil fire rushed up.
I had originally been thinking of questioning him properly, but at this moment I couldn't help the anger rising up in my heart and I couldn't control my emotions for a moment.
"What Master Xu said is ridiculous. Master Xu and Miss Yu have had an ambiguous relationship for a long time. Do I have to pretend that I know nothing and marry here to let you abuse me? Is Master Xu also planning to make Miss Yu a concubine, just like Madam Yu did back then, and then let me die a violent death?"
Qu Moying curled the corners of his lips sarcastically and spoke calmly.
However, there was a chill in the calm voice, which made Xu Lipeng, who was about to move forward, stop.
The affairs of Yu and Qu Zhizhen, as well as the affairs of Xiaoyue
Xu Lipeng also inquired about it afterwards, and the situation was really similar to what he had imagined at the time.
"Master Xu, I am not your mother. I would rather not marry than marry someone like you. I will never marry someone who looks like my father." Qu Moying continued lightly, raising her eyes slightly and looking at Xu Lipeng very calmly, revealing a coldness that broke the rules.
She was talking about Qu Zhizhen, who was also her father, but she said it in this tone.
Such words and actions are definitely not something a weak girl in the boudoir can or dare to say!
Qu Zhizhen is her biological father. Even if he did something wrong, it is not her right to say anything. But she said it so coldly, with contempt, as if it was a matter of course. Her little face with a veil was calm without a ripple.
At this moment, Xu Lipeng was stunned, and suddenly found that he could not say anything. He opened his mouth and looked at Qu Moying, not knowing whether to scold or say something else.
"Master Xu, you and I have no relationship now. Everything in the past is in the past! Although you once wanted to plot against me, it is your own fault that you ended up in this situation. I don't want to let you plot against me, is it my fault? Or is Master Xu so arrogant that whoever he wants to plot against has to obey him?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Qu Moying said lightly.
After saying this, he glanced at Xu Lipeng coldly and turned to leave.
Xu Lipeng subconsciously took two steps forward and reached out to grab Qu Moying's arm: "Miss Qu Si, is it my fault that the two of us are in this situation now? Isn't it your fault too? If you can't tolerate Yu Qingmeng, you can tell me, why make such a fuss."
This time, Xu Lipeng made up his mind. When he failed to catch it, he took two quick steps and reached out again.
But the next moment, his hand was slapped hard by someone, "Prince Xu, please respect yourself!"
Someone said coldly.
Xu Lipeng's hand was hit very painfully. After he stood still, he looked at Qi Xiu Ran, the eldest son of the Duke of Qi's Mansion opposite him with a gloomy face and a very unfriendly look.
Qi Xiu Ran happened to walk by and saw from afar that there seemed to be a dispute here. What he couldn't stand the most was that Xu Lipeng actually reached out to grab Qu Moying again and again. This was a very rude thing. Everyone in the capital knew about the cancellation of the engagement between the two. They also knew that Master Xu and a niece of the Yu family had been having an ambiguous relationship for a long time and he was not interested in this marriage at all.
The only reason not to cancel the engagement was that this marriage could give Xu Lipeng a good reputation.
If Xu Lipeng behaves like this again now, it would be excessive.
Qi Xiuran strode forward, slapped the hand that Xu Lipeng stretched out again, and slapped his hand back.
"Greetings, Master Qi." Qu Moying turned sideways and saluted, without any deviation in her behavior, as if it was not her who was almost grabbed by Xu Lipeng's hand just now.
Even at this time, she was still calm and composed. Just for this point, Qi Xiuran looked up to Qu Moying again. The Prince of Yongning was really not worthy of the Fourth Miss Qu.
"Mr. Qi, please move aside. I have something to say to Miss Qu." Xu Lipeng glared at Qu Moying with a bad look. He was in a bad mood at the moment and didn't care whether he would offend Qi Xiuran.
Yu Dong also came over at this time and stood behind Qu Moying, also staring at Xu Lipeng with a hidden and unfriendly look. Although she was far away just now, she also saw Xu Lipeng's actions. This son of the Yongning Marquis was really bold to dare to grab the young lady's hand.
This person has bad intentions and wants to tarnish the young lady's reputation.
"Prince Xu,
Your marriage with Miss Qu Si has been called off, do you still have anything to say?" Qi Xiuran did not give in, and said to Xu Lipeng indifferently. He despised the most such things as bullying women by relying on being a man.
The man is pulling and tugging here, and is beating someone just for ruining the woman's reputation. He is really a mean and scoundrel. Is he still the Prince of Yongning who was praised by everyone in the past
"Master Qi, this is a matter between me and Fourth Miss Qu. Please don't interfere." Seeing Qi Xiuran protecting Qu Moying, Xu Lipeng felt depressed and became more and more angry. He raised his eyes and his face looked very ugly.
"Master Xu, I don't think there is anything more to talk about between us. If you have anything else to say in the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, please ask the Marquis's wife to go to the Qu Mansion and tell my grandmother. There can't be anything else to talk about between the two of us." Qu Moying said to Xu Lipeng.
He looked calm and composed, and his demeanor was much more dignified than the angry Xu Lipeng.
Xu Lipeng's face turned ashen with anger. He pointed at Qu Moying, then at Qi Xiuran and snorted coldly. Originally, he didn't really want to listen to Qu Qiuyan's words. Of course he understood what Qu Qiuyan meant, but he didn't want to do such a immoral thing. He felt that he still had style.
But at the moment, he couldn't care less. Qu Moying wanted to escape from him, and now it seemed that she was related to the eldest son of the Duke of Qi's Mansion. Otherwise, why would the eldest son of the Duke of Qi's Mansion protect her so much? So don't blame him for being rude. If you don't want to be his wife, then be a concubine!
My own Yongning Marquis Mansion can’t lack a concubine!
Shaking his sleeves fiercely, Xu Lipeng left angrily and went to the flower hall. Qu Qiuyan hinted that there should be a sachet lost by Qu Moying there.
Seeing Xu Lipeng leave angrily, Qi Xiuran's face looked very unhappy. The son of Yongning Marquis was not among the guests today, and no one knew who invited him here. Now he was in such a mess, it was really ugly.
In the past, he also thought that the Prince of Yongning was a good man, but what happened afterwards made Qi Xiuran even more disdainful of Xu Lipeng. If you don't like this marriage, just withdraw from it early. Why let it go to that point, where on the one hand you are seeking fame, and on the other hand you are thinking about having ambiguous relationships with other women.
He has really lost the character of a noble young man from an aristocratic family!
"Thank you, young master." Seeing that Xu Lipeng had left, Qu Moying saluted Qi Xiuran.
"Miss Qu Si, you don't have to be polite." Qi Xiuran said with a serious face, and glanced in the direction where Xu Lipeng left, "Miss Qu Si, if Master Xu bothers you again later, you can tell the people in our mansion. You can't let him act so recklessly here!"
This means that the Duke of Qi's Mansion will stand on Qu Moying's side.
"Thank you!" Qu Moying thanked him and looked at Qi Xiuran thoughtfully. Now that they had met, there were some things that needed to be said, right
"Miss Qu Si, you're too polite!" Qi Xiuran nodded, and seeing that Qu Moying was fine, he turned around and walked outside. He was originally in the inner courtyard and was about to go to the outer courtyard when his father told him to go outside and bring the guests into the flower hall. Calculating the time, it was about time.
"Thank you, Young Master Qi, for the return gift you sent me before. That piano score is very good!" Looking at Qi Xiuran who was about to leave without any intention of staying to explain anything, Qu Moying suddenly spoke.
"What's the return gift?" Qi Xiuran stopped and asked in astonishment, "When did you send Miss Qu Si the music sheet? How come I didn't know about it?"
