Chapter 22
Triona's beating was indeed in vain, because Geshi used the bitter trick before him.
Although the injury on her forehead only looked scary and was actually not serious, she "fell ill" that night.
After "falling ill", Gurdjieff was no longer as fierce and aggressive as he was during the day. Instead, he shed tears with a white face, showing a rare weakness in front of her husband and daughter.
"It's not that I'm cruel and unkind and insist on going against you father and daughter, but it's a capital crime to hide the son of a traitor secretly. If the news about the brother-sister affair spreads, it will also bring disaster to the family! Fortunately, we are facing each other. That's right, Brother Ji. It would have been someone else who would have reported it to His Majesty early in the morning, or publicized the matter! By then, the Duke of Guo would not be able to get away with the crime of hiding the son of a traitor, and Yan'er would not be able to escape. It is impossible to escape the three-foot white silk..."
Ge family was born in Huaiyang. Ge family has always been aloof and proud, and disdains the attitude of a weak and pitiful young woman. But this does not mean that she has no means and does not know how to control her husband.
Duke Qing Guo was already in the wrong, but after hearing her unreasonable crying, how could he still be so angry? She could only agree to her request to let Cui Ang move out and never step into the Duke of Qing's mansion again.
Of course, according to Ge's original intention, she wanted to directly get rid of the scourge Cui Ang, so as to prevent his life experience from being revealed in the future and bringing disaster to the family. But I also knew that the Duke of Qing would not agree, and Ge was afraid that killing Cui Ang at this time would alienate her daughter from her, so she could only do the next best thing and drive Cui Ang out of the Duke of Qing's mansion first and not allow him to do so. Goodbye Cui Lingyan, I will look for an opportunity to take action in the future.
As for Cui Lingyan, she and Cui Ang were in a passionate love period, so naturally she couldn't bear to be separated from him - although Cui Ang was revealed to be the son of her mother's love rival, that was all in the past generation, and she didn't care in her heart .
Just seeing her mother weak and crying, with worried eyes, she could no longer hold her neck and fight her. In addition, Ge made it clear that if she refused to obey, she would beat Cui Ang to death and completely eliminate this trouble. Cui Lingyan was so distraught that she finally broke up with Cui Ang in tears.
Cui Ang was "double abandoned" in this way.
This made him so angry that he almost lost his mind. If he hadn't just received a severe beating and couldn't even stand up now, he would have wanted to use some means to make the annoying Gurdjieff "die" of the disease.
And Xiao Ji, that despicable and shameless villain, did he think that if he used Ge's hand to force him and Yan'er to separate, Yan'er would belong to him?
dream!
Cui Ang completely hated Xiao Ji, but he was a scheming person after all. After the initial anger, he still gritted his teeth and suppressed the murderous intention in his heart.
It's not a good time for revenge now, but one day, he will make Xiao Ji pay the price for what happened today!
Just as he was thinking this, Cui Lingyan, who came to break up with him and say goodbye to him, suddenly cried and said: "You are the only one in my heart. Even if we are separated, I will never marry anyone else!"
Marry someone else? Cui Ang's sinister eyes moved, and he suddenly thought of a good way to solve the current predicament and get revenge on Xiao Ji.
"No, you want to get married."
Cui Lingyan, who was crying in his arms, was startled by his sudden words. She almost thought she heard wrongly: "What did you say?"
She kicked all the servants out of the house, thinking that this was the last time she and Cui Ang would see each other. Aunt Shen, who was responsible for sending her here, was soft-hearted and did not stop her, so the two could hug each other here.
And Cui Ang had already thought of a plan while speaking. He held Cui Lingyan's hand, and a cold dark light flashed in his narrow eyes: "Don't your mother want you to get back your marriage with Prince Duan? Just listen to her orders. ."
Cui Lingyan's eyes widened with tears in shock: "What?! I don't-"
"Don't worry, it's just a temporary measure. I don't really want you to marry Xiao Ji." Cui Ang comforted him in a low voice, "You just need to pretend to agree to the marriage and make Xiao Ji mistakenly think that you have changed your mind and are willing to marry him. That’s it.”
Is there anything more painful than gaining and then losing? Xiao Ji, since he insists on snatching Yan'er from him, don't blame him for using this as a raft.
Cui Ang sneered and continued to explain: "He already knows my life experience and can use it to attack us at any time. To us, this is a knife hanging over our heads and may fall at any time. We must Find a way to stabilize him first, otherwise who knows what despicable methods he will use to force you to submit? So, it is better to pretend to agree to the marriage first, and then find a reason to take advantage of him when he is not prepared, so as to force him to break off the engagement. This way Once he comes, we will no longer have to be coerced by him.”
This sounds reasonable. But……
Cui Lingyan came back to her senses and hesitated: "But Brother Ji is a prince of the royal family after all. Once the marriage is decided, it cannot be easily withdrawn. What if we haven't found anything about him by the time of the wedding? What should we do? Do you really want me to marry him?"
People these days would not get married immediately after getting engaged, but even if she could find a way to get Xiao Ji to set the wedding date later, it would only be one year at most. A year later, the marriage was completed no matter what.
Of course Cui Ang also knew this. Hearing this, he lowered his head and kissed Cui Lingyan's lips. He kissed Cui Lingyan hard twice before softening his tone and said, "No, no one is perfect. We will definitely resolve this matter before the wedding day." .Even if the situation you mentioned really happens, I will find a way to disrupt the marriage. You are mine, and I will not let anyone take you away from me."
Even if Xiao Ji is really innocent and has no evidence, with Cui Lingyan by his side, he still has many ways to create some for him.
Under Cui Ang's comfort and coaxing, Cui Lingyan finally made up her mind without hesitation: "Okay, I will do it. As long as I can be with you, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Although I feel sorry for Xiao Ji for doing this... but who asked him to tell her mother, causing brother Zian to be beaten and have to be separated from her?
This is what he owes her. If he wants to blame it, he should blame himself for not forcing it!
Cui Lingyan bit her lip and thought with complicated emotions.
At this time, she never thought that Xiao Ji would not accept her "change of heart" - after all, wasn't he doing so many things just to get her?
It wasn't until a few days later that she and her mother who finally "recovered" went to Prince Duan's Mansion to explain the situation. However, they were hit in the face by a flying ball from Xiao Ji, who was playing Cuju in the yard, causing two nosebleeds on the spot. Cui Lingyan finally noticed. Yeah, things are a bit different from what she and Cui Ang thought...
No, it's completely different.
*
The ball was actually an accident. No matter how much Xiao Ji hated Cui Lingyan, he would not use such a childish method to deal with her. In fact, he never thought that Cui Lingyan would dare to come to see him. After all, he had already clearly broken up with her that day at Cheng'en Palace.
As for Ge, in his expectation, Ge came home angrily that day. After confirming that what he said was true, he would first vent his anger on Cui Ang - for example, find an excuse to beat him, and then beat him. He kicked out of the house. But Cui Lingyan and her father Qing Guogong will definitely try their best to persuade her to keep Cui Ang.
Ge Shi might object, but Xiao Ji felt that she alone could not defeat Cui Lingyan and Qing Guo Gong. Besides, if this matter spread out in a big way, it would implicate the whole family of Qing Guo Gong, so he felt that Ge Shi would still do it in the end. He would compromise and then come to his door and beg him to keep the secret.
It's a pity that he only guessed the beginning and the ending correctly, but not the ending. Ge's brains and methods were far smarter than he thought.
So that morning, when he, Ye Fei and others were having fun, but were disturbed by the sudden appearance of Cui Lingyan, Xiao Ji was shocked and felt extremely unlucky.
Why is it her again?
How dare she appear in front of him?
Is it over yet?
——Anyway, the whole person suddenly became irritable and impatient.
The result made Xiao Ji even more irritable, and something incredible happened - Cui Lingyan, who was hit by the flying takraw ball and got two nosebleeds, fell to the ground and scratched her palm, did not run away. But after being stunned for a while, he covered his nose with red eyes and looked in his direction with a sad and aggrieved face: "I know brother Ji, you are still angry with me, I am here to explain to you today. And apologize, if you...if you can't calm down after hitting me this time, then you can hit me a few more times!"
Xiao Ji, who never expected that he would hear such words: "..."
WTF? ? ? ? ? ?
