Chapter 173 - Satisfying Court (9)
Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing
But at that moment, Lu Manman had a strange feeling. She felt like Mo Yuanxiu was not joking when he said he wanted to skin those people alive.
âMiss Lu, your fatherâs case was won so well. Is there anything you want to say?â
âThereâs nothing much to say. I just hope that the court will clear my fatherâs name as soon as possible. My father isnât young anymore, and he wonât be able to withstand this torture. Of course, I also hope that the court will bring those criminals to justice.â With that, she glanced at Wen Yun, who was still standing there. Hatred flashed across her eyes.
Wen Yun seemed to sense her gaze as well.
He narrowed her eyes.
Was she provoking him?!
Lu Manman, do not think that you have the right to provoke me just because you have won the case.
He swallowed his anger and smiled. He walked over and said gently, âManman, congratulations.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wen Yunâs sudden appearance made the reporters recall his existence. Moreover, seeing the two of them appear in the same frame made them uncontrollably excited.
Lu Manman glanced at him.
âIâm really glad that Uncle is alright. Iâve been so worried all this while. Itâs good that youâre alright too.â Wen Yun did not seem to mind Lu Manmanâs estrangement, and he seemed sincere as he spoke.
He was still so good at acting?!
Wen Yun, have you not had enough of slapping yourself in the face?!
Lu Manman smiled beautifully. âThank you.â
âNo matter what, weâre still friends.â Wen Yun smiled at her and then looked up at Mo Yuanxiu.
This man always appeared nonchalant about everything.
He had hated this frivolous side of Mo Yuanxiu ever since they were in the same class! It was as if he did not care about anything at all and was just a silkpants!
âAnd congratulations to the both of you for getting married soon,â Wen Yun said sincerely as if he had already let go of everything.
With that, he even put his hand out as if he was prepared to make peace with her in front of the reporters.
Lu Manman simply smiled.
She looked at the fair and clean hand before her.
Wen Yun was indeed smart enough to use this method to improve his image.
If she did not shake his hand, people might think she was being petty.
But if she shook his hands, it would be fulfilling Wen Yunâs scheme.
But at this point, there seemed to be only one option!
She pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, about to put her hand out.
Mo Yuanxiu suddenly pulled her into his arms, and it was obvious that he wanted to stop her from doing it.
Everyone looked at him.
The reporters, Wen Yun, and even Lu Manman.
He smiled calmly and said directly, âI donât think I can forgive those who have hurt Manman so easily.â
Wen Yun furrowed his brows.
âManman is kindhearted and doesnât mind, but that doesnât mean that her kindness can be used by others. Iâm sorry, Young Master Wen, but we donât accept your blessings.â
Wen Yunâs expression darkened. Mo Yuanxiuâs rude and sarcastic remarks placed him in an awkward position.
âMoreover⦠Even if Iâm being selfish, I canât stand seeing another man touch Manmanâs hand. I get jealous easily.â His words seemed to mock Wen Yun for not knowing his limits.
No woman should be casually touched by a man!
Wen Yunâs expression darkened further. He glared at Mo Yuanxiu but did not say a word.
