Chapter 114: Turned Murderer (6)
Thanks to his grandfather Shi Le’s effort all this year, Shi Yuting had been able to get to his current position.
Upon hearing this, Shi Nuannuan was overjoyed.
However, when she heard her mother’s last sentence, her joy was mixed with sorrow!
“Mommy, what do you mean by uniting in marriage with the Tengtang family?”
Shen Lanzhi smiled.
She felt the granddaughter of the Tengtang family, Tengtang Xi, was not bad.
Anyway, a family like theirs uniting in marriage with an aristocratic family was an inevitable matter.
Tengtang Xi was not only pretty, but she also had a gentle personality and a good family background.
In the past, she had been worried about her son’s marriage and had acted on her own to introduce a rich man’s daughter to her son. She did not know that Shi Le had already been planning all this.
She looked at Shi Nuannuan smilingly and thought her darling daughter was naïve and cute.
“Of course, it’s your brother and the Tengtang Xi uniting in marriage. As long as we get the Tengtang family’s support, your brother’s position is as good as secure!”
Upon hearing this, Shi Nuannuan was stunned and blurted, “Can’t he not marry her?”
Shen Lanzhi paused and thought her daughter’s response was unusual.
She frowned and looked at her daughter, puzzled. “Why, is Tengtang Xi not good enough?”
Shi Nuannuan hesitated. She bit her lower lip and was unsure how to answer.
“No, I just think that marriage is a lifelong matter and no matter how good Tengtang Xi is would be useless if Brother doesn’t like her!”
If her brother were to marry Tengtang Xi, what about Weiyi?
At the thought of this, Shi Nuannuan could not help but gaze anxiously at Shi Yuting who was not far away.
When she heard what her daughter said, Shen Lanzhi looked down.
Her daughter’s words made sense.
Sometimes, they thought it was the best arrangement but had not considered if Shi Yuting liked it or not.
“But your grandfather has promised the Tengtang family. I believe your brother might like Tengtang Xi when he sees her.”
“Impossible!” Shi Nuannuan was agitated and the word slipped out of her mouth.
Shen Lanzhi was stupefied. She looked at her daughter.
What was up with Nuannuan today? She seemed unusual…
“Nuannuan, what happened to you?”
Aware of her unusualness, Shi Nuannuan pursed her pink lips.
She had almost spilled the beans about her brother and Weiyi!
“Nothing, I’m just afraid Brother might not like her and that this would end on a sour note.”
Hearing her daughter’s worries, Shen Lanzhi only smiled. “Let’s not be worried. Tengtang Xi will be here in a while. She’s very pretty, your brother might like her at first sight.”
“No, he won’t. Brother has…”
Shi Nuannuan blurted out casually but halfway through her sentence, she realized she should not say too much and so, she shut her mouth.
“I’ll stop talking and go get something to eat.”
If she were to continue the conversation, the words in her would be forced out sooner or later!
Shi Nuannuan turned around and stopped talking to her mother.
She walked toward a banquet table. There were various kinds of snacks. Shi Nuannuan took a plate and while eating, glanced at her brother who was standing not far from her.
After a while, the sound of applause was heard in the grand hall. From a distance, a beautiful lady walked into the hall toward Shi Le and Shi Yuting.
“Greet Grandpa Shi.” Tengtang Li looked at her granddaughter with adoration.
“Hello Grandpa Shi.” Tengtang Xi was wearing a long, white dress, which perfectly accentuated her sexy and tempting figure!
