At first, Long Shuli ignored her. She simply forcefully grabbed her wrist to check her pulse while enduring her constant stream of insults and rants.
However, after Long Shuli administered a needle to her neck, she casually cleaned her ears and remarked, âYouâre too noisy. Nevertheless, you donât seem to be a woman with much intelligence, and I canât be bothered to argue with you.â
âSob, sob, sob⦠Yes, yes, yes!â
Liu Shulan wanted to retort immediately, but she found herself unable to produce any sound.
She stared at Long Shuli with wide eyes. What had she done to her?
Long Shuli lowered her head, writing a prescription. âI donât like noisy people, so 1 temporarily muted your voice. Butâ¦â Glancing at Liu Shulan, she continued, âConsidering youâre Su Dinghengâs woman, let me give you some advice. That man is too incompetent. Youâd be better off finding a capable and wealthy man. He wonât be able to provide you with anything in the future.â âBullshit!â Liu Shulan cursed silently. Regardless of Su Dinghengâs shortcomings, he was still the Second Young Master of the Marquis of Martial Southâs Manor. Even if he couldnât inherit the title, he would still have a place in the court. How many years could she enjoy the wealth of the Marquisâs Manor?
Easy for Long Shuli to say!
After completing the prescription, Long Shuli pulled out the silver needles. The moment Liu Shulan regained her voice, she shouted at Long Shuli, âDonât think that just because youâve entered the Marquisâs Manor, you can look down on Dingheng and the wealth of the Marquisâs Manor! Little do you know, once you leave the Marquisâs Manor, youâre nothing!â
Long Shuli glanced at her. âWhat do 1 need from the Marquisâs Manor?â
âYouâ¦â Liu Shulan glared at her. This was the first time she had encountered such a shameless woman. âEverything you have now is given by the Marquisâs Manor! Youâre still not satisfied and look down on the Marquisâs Manor. Iâm going to tell the Old Marquis and have him annul your engagement!â âSo be it if he annuls it! I didnât want to marry him either, but 1 think all men in the world are equally boring. It doesnât matter who 1 marry!â Long Shuli expressed disinterest.
Liu Shulan became even more jealous because what Long Shuli didnât care about was something that she had struggled for years and couldnât obtain!
âIf you donât want to marry, then let me marry him! Go and break off the engagement with the Marquisâs Manor!â Liu Shulanâs chest heaved as she roared.
She had thought that her impulsive and angry words wouldnât affect Long Shuli.
To her surprise, Long Shuli tapped her pen on the table and calmly asked her, âDo you really like Su Dingheng that much? Do you have to marry him?â âYes, I do! 1 love Dingheng!â Liu Shulanâs eyes were filled with anger.
At that time, she could never have imagined that Long Shuli would break off the engagement with Su Dingheng for her.
And this was her first chance to be brought into the Marquisâs Manor.
The Marquisâs Manor was majestic. As soon as she stepped in, her legs went weak. She couldnât dare to imagine becoming the young madam of this place. All those dreams of soaring to new heights were now stimulated and magnified.
Old Marquis happened to be in the residence as well. Both of them, under Su Dinghengâs guidance, walked towards the reception hall. Su Dingheng protected her in every possible way, assuring her not to be afraid and promising to protect her.
She was overjoyed.
On the other hand, Long Shuli maintained a calm expression. She didnât seem to be walking in the Marquisâs Manor but rather strolling on an ordinary street. Brimming with confidence, she resembled the fairies depicted in storybooks. As she walked, her clothes fluttered, and her ethereal aura overflowed.
Internally, Liu Shulan refused to admit it.
Long Shuli looked so beautiful, like an otherworldly fairy.
Upon reaching the living room, Long Shuli took the initiative to request the Old Marquis to annul the engagement. The Old Marquis erupted in anger, questioning if Su Dingheng was the troublemaker..
