Chapter 2674: Chapter 2610: Regrets from Back Then
She took a deep breath and continued to ask, "Did Lu Shuangshuang ever mention that she had already broken off the engagement with Sixth Young Master back then?"
Regarding this, Fei Cui seemed to know a bit more clearly.
After asking, Chiang Xiao looked expectantly at Fei Cui.
Fei Cui leaned against the wall, appearing quite weak. Nonetheless, she quickly spoke up.
"Yes, back then Sixth Young Master Jiang sent someone with a letter to break off the engagement and returned the token. The eldest young lady was furious and threw a fit, but in her anger, she agreed and returned the Ruby Necklace they had given her."
Indeed!
Indeed, the engagement was broken off back then.
Her father had sent Xiao Fu to break off the engagement, and the matter was accomplished.
She glanced at the still unconscious Lu Shuangshuang and asked, "Then what about the Ruby Necklace that Lu Shuangshuang is still wearing now?"
"Once the person took the token and left, the eldest young lady regretted it. She said that Sixth Young Master wanted to break off the engagement because of that slut, so she shouldn’t let him truly end up with that slut. She should cling to Sixth Young Master tightly, making sure he can never get rid of her, and not let that slut have her way. So she searched for a long time and found a ruby of the same quality and had someone create a necklace just like the token of engagement."
It was indeed Lu Shuangshuang playing tricks!
Chiang Xiao walked over to Lu Shuangshuang, pulled open her collar, and indeed saw the Ruby Necklace around her neck.
She gritted her teeth and immediately ripped off the necklace, stuffing it into her pocket.
She wouldn’t leave even the fake to Lu Shuangshuang!
Also, who exactly was the slut Fei Cui kept mentioning earlier?
"Who was the slut you mentioned just now?"
"She was Sixth Young Master Jiang’s beloved, but the eldest young lady was just guessing. Because the Jiang family and the Lu family originally had thoughts of an arranged marriage, Sixth Young Master Jiang knew he might marry the eldest young lady in the future; he didn’t oppose it until that time when some of them went to the island, and his attitude changed after they returned. Whenever the topic of an arranged marriage came up, he wanted to refuse."
As Fei Cui recounted, Chiang Xiao gradually understood what had happened back then.
Initially, Sixth Young Master Jiang wasn’t opposed to marrying into the Lu family.
He was being groomed as a successor, so with marriage, he first thought it would be beneficial for the development of the family.
As for Lu Shuangshuang, it can’t be said that he liked her, but neither did he dislike her at the time.
If their relationship after marriage was respectful, he didn’t consider it a significant problem.
Therefore, when people from the Jiang and Lu families joked about him and Lu Shuangshuang, he would just smile and not oppose.
Lu Shuangshuang at that time already had feelings for him and was waiting for the day when the families formally brought up the matter.
That time, they went to the island to play with several other aristocratic youths. In the middle, Sixth Young Master went off somewhere by himself, leaving them for a while. When he returned, something had changed. Although nobody else noticed any difference, in the eyes of young Lu Shuangshuang, who had been watching him intently, there was a significant difference.
After returning, whenever people from the Jiang and Lu families joked about the two of them again, Sixth Young Master Jiang clearly stated that they shouldn’t joke about such matters; it wasn’t fair to Miss Shuang.
To Lu Shuangshuang, this was obviously a sign of refusal.
