The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

Chapter 920: Forcing Him to Take a Concubine? II

However, what Chen Qingyan said sounded like a huge punch to everybody. Mu Ling was no exception. He was stunned at first. Soon, he became slightly angry.

“Qingyan, stop messing around! What are you doing?”

An Cui was expelled from the chief manor. She was useless indeed. How could she ever be suited to Nan Xian?

Both Feng Ruqing and Nan Xian acted like they did not care at all. They were chatting with each other happily as if they did not hear what Chen Qingyan had said.

“Although I’m no longer a part of the Mu family. But, my son is the eldest son of the Mu family.” Suyi laughed, softly. She appeared calm just like the breeze. “But, why am I unaware that the marriage of the eldest son is decided by a concubine?”

Chen Qingyan’s eyes became watery. Her eyes were filled with pitiful tears. “Sister Suyi, we’re sisters. Nan Xian is just like my son. I did this for his sake. Young Lady An met with Nan Xian when she left Tian Shen Manor not long ago. They slept together that time. How could he not be responsible for that? If you don’t believe what I said, you could ask somebody else to go and check her up to see whether she’s innocent.”

All eyes fell on An Cui.

An Cui paled. She appeared helpless. She turned to look at Chen Qingyan anxiously.

Chen Qingyan had planned to make use of An Cui to trick Nan Xian into falling into a trap she had set for him. She wanted An Cui to stand between Nan Xian and Feng Ruqing. Surely, she would not care about how the story went on An Cui’s side. She just wanted to achieve her goal.

Losing one’s innocence before the marriage was prohibited in the mainland. The public would not care whether they really loved each other. The men were allowed to be with whomever they wanted. But, the women would be blamed for the rest of their lives if they lose their innocence before marriage.

An Cui had risked everything this time just to be married into the Mu family!

“Brother Ling.” Chen Qingyan turned around with a pitiful look. “Have I done anything wrong? Nan Xian slept with Young Lady An. I couldn’t help but do what I have done for her reputation.”

“I’m sorry, Qingyan.” Mu Ling’s heart was aching. ” I shouldn’t be angry with you. I have misunderstood you.”

He soon raised his head and stared at Nan Xian with angry eyes when he finished talking. He scolded Nan Xiang sternly, “Nan Xian, you bastard! How could you do this kind of dirty thing and run away from your responsibility! Why do I have this kind of son? Now, you must marry Young Lady An immediately!”

Mu Ling knew his son’s personality.

Nan Xian always appeared to be calm and distant. He seemed not to care about anything in the world. Nan Xian did not even utter any word just now when the Mu family had said so much.

Clearly, Nan Xian would not speak much under such circumstances.

Normally, Nan Xian would surely reject this kind of proposition. But, there were a lot of people. He would never disobey Mu Ling if he wanted to protect his reputation.

A soft laugh was heard in the peaceful banquet hall.

Feng Ruqing smiled happily. “You said that whatever you’re doing is to help protect her reputation. But, you have pushed her forward and revealed the truth about her loss of innocence. You have even suggested to us to have her body checked by someone else in front of everybody here. Is that really your way of protecting her reputation?”

Chen Qingan paled. “I… I’m just afraid that Nan Xian would refuse to be responsible when he has taken advantage of her. How could Young Lady An survive from now on? Brother Ling, I have done that because I was forced to do so. I didn’t intend to ruin Young Lady An.”

“That’s enough!” Mu Ling was outraged. He scolded Feng Ruqing, “Feng Ruqing, I know what you’re doing. Don’t you want to be a part of the Mu family? I’m telling you now. It’s impossible! Not everyone can be accepted to be a part of the Mu family…”
