Chapter 510 The Lovable Ling Mingyan

“I really didn’t mean it. I just heard… I felt sad…” Ling Mingyan felt wronged, sad, and oppressed. Looking at the charming prost.i.tute, she couldn’t help crying. Tears immediately fell, and she sobbed, “How can I want you to be joked? Don’t you know what I’m thinking in my heart? I am willing to do anything for you, but… but…”

But she just didn’t want to see other women around You Yuecheng.

You Yuecheng waved his hand, and the woman sitting beside him stood up, saluted him respectfully, and retreated.

“Come and sit.” He pointed to the brocade stool beside him. His att.i.tude was gentle.

Seeing that the woman was gone, Ling Mingyan came subconsciously to sit on the brocade stool pointed by You Yuecheng. Her eyes were still full of tears, and she looked like an aggrieved person. No one could think that Ling Mingyan who was arrogant outside was as adorable as a little sheep in front of You Yuecheng.

“Is that woman pretty?” You Yuecheng asked, frowning.

“No.” Ling Mingyan fiercely shook her head. She wasn’t deliberately belittling that woman. To be honest, that woman indeed didn’t look pretty. Her features were far worse than those of the women she had tried to give him in order to pretend to be virtuous.

“Is she pretty compared with the maidservants in our manor?”

Ling Mingyan rubbed her face with her handkerchief, and answered bitterly, “No, her features are medium at best.”

“Since she isn’t pretty, then how could I want an unbeautiful prost.i.tute instead of the beautiful maidservants in my manor? Is my taste really so bad?” You Yuecheng asked lightly.

Ling Mingyan had always known You Yuecheng’s taste. And he had never been keen on women. He only had a few maidservants around him, without concubines. He was the cleanest man among the common big families. Besides, since she married him, Ding General Manor also sent several maidservants to serve him in order to consolidate the position. Ling Mingyan was dissatisfied with them, but she knew that they were very beautiful.

Even so, You Yuecheng didn’t show any interest in them. Ling Mingyan once secretly rejoiced at it.

At this time, she thought that You Yuecheng could not have liked the woman. Her eyes lit up, and she looked up and stuttered, “But… but you, just held… her hand… why?”

“I had something to deal with. Now that you made a scene, I have to find a reason for you, saving others from thinking that you are arrogant and rude. This is a restaurant. If you make big trouble, Mingguo Manor and Ding General Manor will both be humiliated. Are you willing to see that? That woman didn’t come for me. When I heard you coming, I borrowed her from my friend temporarily. They are right next door.”

You Yuecheng rubbed his forehead, with anger covering his face.

At his words, the anger on Ling Mingyan’s face immediately faded away. Her heart was filled with happiness and sweetness, as well as remorse. She felt that she was too impulsive to come here to make trouble. Although You Yuecheng showed no affection for her recently, at least he did not give her the cold shoulder, which was a small improvement since they got married.

What she had done must make him feel disappointed. She raised her head, looked at You Yuecheng, and repeatedly promised, “Your Excellency, I’m sorry, I really thought… I won’t be like this again. I’ll kill that d.a.m.n old woman when I go back. She dared to stir me up, making me think you really had a private meeting with other women.”

In excitement, she spoke everything out. Ling Mingyan only felt that she was sorry for You Yuecheng at this time. She didn’t care about the life and death of her loyal men, and she really hated the old maidservant who came with her from her parents’ family. She just had a walk on the street, but she told Ling Mingyan that she saw You Yuecheng and a woman enter a private room in the restaurant, which caused her to lose her mind and lead people to rush to catch him and the woman. d.a.m.n, she would deal with her after she went back.

“It’s best if you can think like that. You have to remember, you are my wife. As long as you do not cause trouble, you’ll always be my wife in my heart, and give you a decent position being my wife. In the future, you’ll manage Duke Mingguo’s backyard. Those women certainly have to listen to you. As for what I do outside, you are Duke Ding’s daughter, and don’t you really understand that I am in no mood to play at this time!”

You Yuecheng was exasperated at what she had done.

“Well, Your Excellency, I know. If you need my help, just let me know. I will help you. I don’t care if my father and uncle are on whose side, I must be on your side. I’ll do what you ask me to.” She felt sorry for You Yuecheng. This was the height of the compet.i.tion for the throne. To please You Yuecheng, Ling Mingyan had repeatedly expressed loyalty to him.

In fact, she also thought so.

Her father and Second Uncle supported King Yan first, and then abandon him, but she was different. Since His Excellency was on the side of King Yan, she would definitely support King Yan firmly.

Mo Xuetong took her maidservants upstairs. The private room that Mo Ye had ordered for her was beside the window. She sat down by the window and looked out of it to see that the woman with the veil was just getting on an extremely simple carriage by the side of the road, surrounded by several maidservants. Such a carriage was the most on the street, which had no sign or mark, so it was impossible to see which manor it came from.

“My Lady, the lady looks imposing. Why doesn’t she even have a decent carriage?” Mo Yu also saw it, and looked down curiously, asking in confusion. Just now, the words of that woman’s servants showed that their master’s status wasn’t lower than that of Ling Mingyan. How could she be from a small family?
