Chapter 450 - An Exciting Moment (2)

Lian Yun, who was sitting below the stage, was also excited and happy.

After Mu Sihan married Xue’er, she would ask Xue’er to encourage him to return to the Ye family.

When that happened, she would have the support of Mu Sihan and the Ye family, and who else would be able to threaten her status as the next Duchess?

So what if her husband was not the biological child of the Duke? Soon, she would have a son-in-law with a greater power as her support!

At this thought, Lian Yun felt that the Old Madam’s death was worth it.

Lian Yun glanced at Xue’er, who was standing next to Mu Sihan. She did not like this daughter in the past, but now, she finally felt that she had a little use.

The best weapon a pretty woman had was their appearance.

...

Mu Sihan’s eyes darkened as he stared at Xue’er, who had just said thank you to him. HIs eyes were like an oasis with no end, so deep that no one could read what he was thinking.

Xue’er stared at him, smitten, as the happy smile on her lips grew wider.

Mu Sihan moved his gaze away from Xue’er’s small face. He held onto the microphone with one hand while his other was in his pocket. He glanced at the guests present with an aloof expression, before he stared straight into the camera. He spoke with pride, “Several months ago, a woman appeared in my life.”

Several months ago?

Xue’er furrowed her eyebrows. She knew him from their teenage years, what did he mean ‘a few months ago’?

Xue’er’s expression changed immediately, as if she had realized something.

Her clasped hands in front of her tightened their grip on each other. She kept comforting herself that he had another reason to say this. He definitely would not do anything to hurt her during such an important occasion!

She knew very clearly how filial he was. He definitely would not go back on his words since he had promised Grandma!

Xue’er kept comforting herself, though she still could not help but to start panicking. Her eyelids started to twitch suddenly.

Standing next to Xue’er, Mu Sihan seemed to be unable to sense her panic. He continued to say word by word with his low voice, “I asked everyone to come here today to help be my witness.”

The guests all replied, “We’re willing to be the witness of Young Master Mu and Young Lady Mu’s engagement party, we wish for the two of you to be happy!”

“We hope you give birth soon!”

Bo Yan and Lan Yanzhi were sitting together, and started to whisper to each other.

Lan Yanzhi whispered, “What is Fourth Brother doing? With what he’s doing, I don’t think he’s getting engaged to Xue’er!”

Bo Yan tapped his slender fingers on his kneecap, “Maybe his true intention today is not to get engaged.”

Yan Hua was sitting on the other side of Bo Yan, and she widened her eyes slightly in surprise when she heard his words.

Young Master Mu did not want to get engaged?

Then... Were his words directed at Zhizhi?

Yan Hua could not help but to get nervous.

...

Lian Yun was someone who had experienced many things after all, and she felt that things were getting weirder the more she listened to Mu Sihan’s words.

What was Mu Sihan trying to do?

Ever since he agreed to get engaged to Xue’er, her staff had never seen him and Nan Zhi contact each other again.

They should have broken up completely!

However, Lian Yun had a bad feeling right now.

Did Mu Sihan... find out about anything?

No, it was impossible. He definitely could not have found out about it.

The media reporters were sensitive as always, and they had a feeling from Mu Sihan’s attitude that what was going to happen was going to be very interesting.

Compared to the different thoughts the crowd had, the man on stage was calm and aloof. His handsome face continued to look towards the camera, as his dark eyes darkened slowly. “I’m not one who knows how to say sweet things. What I do know is that she is the only one I will have. There’s nothing else I am more certain of in my heart, I know that she is the only one for me.”

His words were strong and heartfelt, and it felt like a confession of love towards the end of his words, “No one else will ever be able to take her place.”

The guests that did not know what was going on thought that Mu Sihan was talking about Xue’er. They were all praising how dedicated Mu Sihan was to Xue’er, that he was doting on her so lovingly.

However, for Xue’er who was next to him, the blush on her cheeks started to fade and a clammy paleness slowly took its place.

His words were already very clear. She would be a fool if she still did not know who he was talking about!

However, he did not mention any names. She could only clenched her teeth right now and lean towards him. She lifted her exquisite face higher, as she looked at him with teary eyes. “Ah Han, I’m very touched. Thank you for your confession. Time is running up, let’s finish the engagement ceremony and exchange our rings first!”

She pulled on his slender arms, as her finger sunk into his arm slowly. Her eyes were sparkling brightly from unshed tears as she looked at him. Her eyelashes were trembling terribly, as she said using a volume that only the two of them could hear, “Ah Han, I beg you. Please...”

Please leave her some dignity!

If he continued, she would break down.

She wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Mu Sihan pursed his thin lips slightly, as he squinted his eyes dangerously and whispered back, “Xue’er, you shouldn’t have eyed something that didn’t belong to you.”

Xue’er widened her eyes in shock.

Mu Sihan shook her hands off him, as he continued into the microphone, “She’s the only woman I will have. It was like that in the past, and it will be the same in the future as well. I will not marry another woman apart from her.”

The camera flashes below the stage flashed nonstop, and a reporter asked, “Young Master Mu, is the woman you’re talking about Young Lady Mu that’s beside you?”

Xue’er trembled lightly, as she looked at Mu Sihan with teary eyes and shook her head nonstop.

She was begging for him to not be so ruthless.

However, his next words threw her into the flames of hell.

“No, she’s not here. However, if she’s watching the live-stream, she would know that the woman I’m talking about is her.”

The crowd exploded in excitement.

Several women were all smitten by the overbearing dedication of the handsome man on stage.

He could be seen as crazy to dare to go back on the marriage agreement and even confess to another woman in front of the cameras and crowd. He was probably one of the few men that dared to do so, it was extremely cool and handsome of him to do it!

The woman that got confessed by him in such an overbearing but doting manner must be really happy!

It was so inhumane of them to torture everyone those with their sweetness!

Yan Hua cupped her hand over her mouth in disbelief after she heard Mu Sihan’s words.

She thought that Young Master Mu was an unfaithful asshole at first. She did not think that he was so straightforward and dedicated!

It was no wonder that Zhizhi would fall for him in such a short time. Such a man was really rare to find now!

He looked so handsome, cool and strong as he stood on stage. His firm and wide shoulders looked like a large tree that was able to protect a woman from anything!

At this moment, Yan Hua felt happy for Nan Zhi.

...

While some people were happy and touched, there were some that were disappointed and angry.

One of them was Lian Yun.

She did not think that Mu Sihan agreed to get engaged in order to confess to another woman.

He was utterly devoid of any conscience to hurt and humiliate her daughter like this!

It seems like he did not respect Lian Yun either.

Since he was the one who had no consideration for them, what was she still holding back for?

Lian Yun took out her phone from her bag. She was about to make a call when the lights in the banquet hall darkened suddenly.

The banquet hall immediately fell into darkness.

Just when no one knew what was going on, a sudden scream pierced through the darkness.
