Chapter 563 - 218 Moving Out of Lian Mansion (Part 2)_2
Zhuang Ruolan had also grown to despise Lian Dongfang. Upon entering, she pressed Yueyao with questions, utterly oblivious to Yueyao’s frail state, unable to withstand any stress. Her demeanor showed no concern for Yueyao’s poisoning. How could such a person ever be good to Yueyao?
Lian Dongfang, ignoring Zhuang Ruolan, simply stared coldly at Yueyao, "Are you really going to stay at Ma’s Mansion?" If Yueyao didn’t want to, even if Ma Chengteng made a fuss, it would be useless, but if Yueyao herself was willing, Lian Dongfang could not stop her under these circumstances.
Yueyao first lowered her head, and it took a while before she slowly raised it. Zhuang Ruolan initially wanted to speak, but seeing Xiang Wei shaking her head slightly toward her, Zhuang Ruolan remained silent.
Yueyao looked directly at Lian Dongfang and said, "Uncle, right after Grandmother passed away, rumors in the mansion labeled me a jinx. Then I nearly got killed falling from a mountain, and now I was almost poisoned to death. Uncle, I haven’t troubled anyone in the mansion, I just want to live quietly. Yet, some people can’t tolerate me, seeing me as a thorn in their side, wishing they could dispose of me quickly. But I don’t want to die, Dad told me to live well and to take good care of my brother. I promised Dad, and I must fulfill that promise." These words from Yueyao were much more effective than directly rebutting Lian Dongfang.
A fierce look flashed in Lian Dongfang’s eyes, but it disappeared quickly. His tone also softened, "Since you’ve decided to go to the Ma family, I won’t stop you. But you should wait until your health improves before moving to Ma’s Mansion!" At this point, preventing it was impossible; he could only openly send Yueyao to live in Ma’s Mansion.
Yueyao thought for a moment; there were so many things in her yard that couldn’t be sorted out in just a couple of days. She readily said, "Okay, then I’ll go in three days."
Hearing this, Lian Dongfang felt a flicker of annoyance; his intention had been for Yueyao to recover for a month or two, not just three days, but seeing her expression, he knew that saying more would be futile.
After Lian Dongfang left, Xi Yu came in and said, "Miss, Uncle Master has come."
Looking at Zhuang Ruolan’s tired expression, Yueyao said, "Cousin-in-law, you go back to the mansion. I won’t have any more troubles here."
Zhuang Ruolan did not respond.
