Chapter 833: Stunning Loneliness (2)
Whenever Mo Yan thought about how she had indeed said such words, she wished she could slap herself hard and quickly said, "Sister Lan, I was just talking nonsense. You shouldn’t take it to heart! We still have a long road ahead of us, and we shouldn’t waste it on someone we don’t like. If Young Master Du can’t give you the feelings you desire, are you going to hold yourself back your whole life? Sister Lan, Young Master Du really isn’t worth the risk!"
Liu Tinglan pondered for a moment but eventually shook her head, "Yanyan, Young Master Du hasn’t done anything wrong. Rashly breaking off the engagement wouldn’t be agreed to by my parents either. The Du Family has finally cleared their debts by relying on my family, and they’re just able to breathe a sigh of relief; they would be even less likely to agree to break off the engagement. If a dispute arises between the two families, it would look bad for my parents, and I wouldn’t have the face to meet people when going out."
Mistakes? Mo Yan’s eyes lit up. While Young Master Du’s utilitarian nature might not be a fault, remarrying after sending away his wife certainly indicated a major flaw in character. Right now, Young Master Du masked it well, and nobody had noticed. If it were to be exposed and Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu found out, perhaps breaking off the engagement would become much easier.
As for whether the Du Family would make a fuss, or whether the Liu Family’s reputation would suffer, those weren’t major issues; a single Dream Entering Technique from Xuetuan could solve them.
With that thought, Mo Yan made up her mind and didn’t continue to persuade Liu Tinglan.
Liu Tinglan also didn’t want to talk about these unpleasant matters on her good friend’s auspicious day, so she changed the topic, "Have you prepared all the dresses and accessories for your coming-of-age ceremony? Quickly, show them to me."
Mo Yan nodded, "Wait for me, I’ll go get them!" As she spoke, she stood up and walked towards the wardrobe against the west wall, retrieving the ceremony dresses and headpieces to be used for the coming-of-age ceremony and laid them on the bed.
