Once again, Luo Li stared at Feng Ruqing in awe. Perhaps, of all the people in the world, only Feng Ruqing was capable of turning her love rival into Nan Xian’s love rival. She would definitely drive the people of the Mu family mad if they knew this.
Feng Ruqing was rendered speechless hearing Qin Chen’s remarks.
‘How embarra.s.sing, could you stop talking about it?’ It seemed that Feng Ruqing had truly ruined Nan Xian’s reputation.
Thinking of this, Feng Ruqing turned her head around to look at Luo Li.
“Nan Xian… really has a bad reputation in Tian Shen Manor?” Feng Ruqing asked with a low voice.
Luo Li nodded desperately as she spoke.
“Previously, Nan Xian had been rejected once. It was Tang Yin’s grandfather who had gone to the Mu family to call off the engagement. He was nearly killed by the people of the Mu family. Fortunately, Tian Shen Manor had a strict rule. Hence, they let go of him finally.”
‘Tang Yin’s grandfather… Isn’t he the first elder of the Tang family?’ Feng Ruqing was startled. She had never thought that the first elder of the Tang family would personally call off the engagement. It was no wonder people of the Mu family were so mad.
Originally, not many people in Tian Shen Manor knew about this betrothal. When Tang Yi had called it off, it had rocked Tian Shen Manor.
Although Feng Ruqing did not know how Tang Yi got into Tian Shen Manor, she felt grateful for the things that he had done. She felt grateful for whoever created a stir in the Mu family.
“The second annulment is even more awful,” said Luo Li with a bright smile.
“The manor master—Gu Shi personally went to the Mu family. Simply no one knows what had actually happened, the only thing we know was that Gu Shi had lost his temper as if someone in the Mu family had deceived him. Hence, this was once again widely spread in Tian Shen Manor.”
“That was not all.” Luo Li paused before she continued.
“Before that, the Mu family had arranged many concubines for Nan Xian. After Gu Shi had created a stir in the Mu family, everyone knows that there is something wrong with Nan Xian. Since then, some clans with strong foothold in this realm did not want to let their daughters step into the Mu family and had broken off the betrothals. On top of that, their daughters would only be Nan Xian’s concubines. As for those clans without a strong foothold, the Mu family would never even have spared a glance at them.”
Currently, only Qin Fei’er still maintained the arranged marriage. It was no wonder that the Mu family still had good ties with the Qin family.
Feng Ruqing was rendered speechless once again. This thing really had nothing to do with her. However, if she told Nan Xian that she was not involved, would Nan Xian trust her?
“The people of the Mu family had been keeping the manor master, Gu Shi, in the dark that they are selecting concubines for Nan Xian. Hence, when Gu Shi found out about it, he was furious. I knew this since the very beginning as they have approached me before. However, my grandmother doesn’t want me to be a concubine. Hence, she did not accept the arranged marriage.” Luo Li looked hard at Feng Ruqing.
Later on, the old lady thought of marrying Luo Li to Nan Xian as she wanted to get someone to take care of Luo Li. However, she would never let Luo Li be a concubine. The old lady thought that since Nan Xian had lost his reputation and many people had broken off the marriage arrangements, the Mu family might agree to make Luo Li Nan Xian’s first wife. However, now that Luo Li was in love with the little fox, she would not marry someone whom she had never met before.
Fortunately, the old lady did not accept the arranged marriage with Nan Xian. Otherwise, Luo Li would have lost a friend—Feng Ruqing. That was by far the most fortunate thing that had happened to Luo Li.
Luo Li was different from Qin Fei’er and the rest. She would never lose her mind over a stunning face in a portrait and be trapped by a scheme arranged by the people of the Mu family.
All of these ladies had good family backgrounds but were willing to be Nan Xian’s concubines. Had the men in the world gone extinct?
