Chapter 243 - 241: Beauty’s Grace
Luo Wanxiang said triumphantly, "It’s too late to regret now! I’ll ask my father to request marriage for my elder brother with Lu Qianqian!"
Shen Yinning watched her run away quickly, with an even more alluring smile on her lips.
She had taken the new tea from Qian Duobao’s ten thousand acres of tea fields—there’s no way Lu Ying would remain indifferent.
She wanted to see if Lu Qianqian were truly granted marriage to Luo Xibai, whether he’d personally make a trip to Jiangnan.

Shen Yinning was having dinner when Luo Xibai hastily arrived.
He was beside himself with rage: "My little sister has gone mad! I don’t know what she’s thinking, but she actually incited my father to petition the court, asking for me to marry Lu Qianqian! I don’t want to get married right now, they’re trying to drive me to the grave!"

Shen Yinning feigned shock, dropping the silver spoon in her hand to the ground.
Luo Xibai immediately grew concerned and said, "Shen Sister, what’s the matter?!"
Shen Yinning rose and leaned against the edge of the table, her figure swaying like a flower petal trembling in the wind: "Ever since I returned to the Capital from Gan State, Lu Qianqian has bullied and humiliated me repeatedly. Not only did she seize my mother’s dowry, she also framed me for stealing her golden hairpin... Even the offense she herself committed against Shen Xinglei, resulting in her being beaten on her wedding night, she blamed it on me... Luo Brother, if you marry her, I’m afraid I won’t be able to live!"
Luo Xibai was taken aback: "There’s such a thing?"
