"What are we here for? That's a good question!"
Lou Xiaoxiao stood with her hands behind her back, a smile on her lips, and took a step forward. Her heroic yet beautiful face revealed the coquettishness that should be expected of her age. She raised her eyebrows and said, "About half a year ago, Patriarch Lou privately decided to marry me to Duke Yin. I have always wanted to find a time to have a good talk with Patriarch Lou about this matter, but unfortunately I don't have time, so I only came to visit him today. I hope Patriarch Lou doesn't mind."
Those who knew about this could not help but fall silent.
At this time, even a fool would know that Lou Xiaoxiao and Lou Qianxue are really here to cause trouble!
Before, they implied that the Third Young Master and Lou Jinglei were a little rat and a big rat, which was annoying but it was just a metaphor.
But saying this now is a blatant challenge!
I just don't know how Lou Jinglei will deal with this matter... Everyone couldn't help but look at Lou Jinglei again.
Lou Jinglei's face looked a little ugly, but he still managed to remain calm and rational.
"Back then, you were under the jurisdiction of Fengyang Prefecture. Naturally, I, the prefect, can make the decision on your marriage!"
"Heh, matters of marriage are always decided by the elders. As for our Qingyun City lineage, Grandpa Potian is still alive. It seems that it is not your turn to worry about my marriage, right? In fact, I also know that you are just selling your daughter for fame. If you admit it directly, maybe I can look at you with a higher regard. It is clearly what you did, so why don’t you admit it?"
"Lou Xiaoxiao—" Lou Jinglei interrupted her abruptly, breathing rapidly, "I admit that I was wrong not to ask for your opinion at the beginning... Today, I solemnly apologize to you! For the sake of our shared surname Lou, let's let the past go with the wind!"
He actually apologized so straightforwardly
Lou Xiaoxiao was stunned.
An Shaoning, who was always gentle and polite, said coldly: "Let the past go with the wind? Oh, Master Lou, you are thinking too well! What happened that day was no less hateful to me, An Shaoning, than having my wife taken away from me. My husband and I almost died because of it... You are trying to destroy not only Xiaoxiao's future happiness, but also our lives! Today, I must ask for an explanation!"
Lou Jinglei's cheek muscles twitched rapidly, and his gaze shifted to Lou Qianxue and Tan Taiyuan, with a forced smile on his face: "Qianxue! I didn't expect you were still alive! Since you are alive, why don't you come back? I have been waiting for you to come back, for more than two years, and finally you are back..."
"… Thank you, Lord Mayor Lou, for your concern! However, if I remember correctly, my Qingyun City family should have been expelled from the Lord Mayor's Mansion by Lord Mayor Lou a long time ago, right? As a member of the Qingyun City Lou family, I am naturally among them."
"This... Qianxue, I have never thought of kicking you out of the house... There are indeed some misunderstandings between Lou Xiaoxiao and me, but to you - I treat you sincerely! Are you going to settle the score with me for Lou Xiaoxiao today?" Lou Jinglei said half-jokingly.
Lou Qianxue was disgusted by his shamelessness: "Don't worry, I'm not here for Sister Xiaoxiao's matter. I believe they can handle such a small matter. I just want to talk to County Magistrate Lou about how my grandfather was besieged and injured by you when he left here."
"… "
Lou Jinglei's face turned completely ugly.
"Dad!" The Third Young Master endured for a long time and could not help but shouted angrily: "What are you talking to them about! There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of them? They are indeed powerful, but we in the Lou family are not pushovers!"
