Chapter 878 [Splendid Heart 17]
Xiu Yu's figure gradually walked away until she disappeared from sight. At this moment, You You finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "Why did the Marquis come to look for Lian Fang this time?" Her eyes fell directly on Xu Lingyi, waiting for his answer.
However, at this moment Xu Lingyi seemed a little hesitant. He opened his mouth and uttered only one word: "I..." The rest of the words seemed to be stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it.
Seeing this, Youyou said softly: "My Lord, if you have something to say, you might as well tell me directly." Her voice was gentle but firm, which seemed to give Xu Lingyi some courage.
After a moment's silence, Xu Lingyi took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and slowly said: "Lian Fang, I regret it." These four words were like a thunder, exploding in Youyou's ears, making her a little at a loss for a moment.
"What?" Youyou widened her eyes and looked at Xu Lingyi with confusion. She obviously didn't understand what he meant. Her beautiful eyes blinked like stars in the night sky.
Before Youyou could react, Xu Lingyi suddenly stepped forward and stretched out his arms to hug her tightly. Youyou had never expected him to do this, and she froze in place. Then, Xu Lingyi lowered his head and kissed Youyou's lips. However, the kiss was short, just a brief taste, and he quickly let go of Youyou.
"You..." Youyou came back to her senses, her face flushed with shame, and anger surged in her heart. She stared at Xu Lingyi and said coquettishly, "How can you be so rude!"
Facing Youyou's accusations, Xu Lingyi did not back down at all. Instead, he said seriously, "I have divorced Luo Yuanniang."
Hearing this, Youyou was stunned at first, then she sneered and said, "So what? What does your divorce have to do with me? No one forced you to make such a decision." After that, she turned her head away and no longer looked at Xu Lingyi.
Xu Lingyi couldn't help but feel angry when he heard Lianfang's response. He stared at the seemingly heartless girl in front of him with wide eyes, and continued in a slightly raised voice: "I am sincere to you, but you are so ungrateful! Lianfang, Lianfang, can't you feel my love?"
After calming down a little, Xu Lingyi took a deep breath and said slowly: "I'll tell you clearly, Lianfang, I like you, from the bottom of my heart. And now, there are no other concubines around me to compete for my favor and disturb our relationship. As for the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, if you think it is too tedious and tiring to manage and don't want to take care of it, you can leave it to my second sister-in-law to take care of it. And you, just need to be your Marquis's young lady at ease. After entering the Marquis' Mansion, you can do whatever you want, and I will never stop you or make all kinds of harsh demands. However, the only thing you need to pay attention to is that when you are outside, you must maintain the dignified manners of the Marquis's wife, and you must not lose your courtesy and decency. However, if you don't even want the identity of the Marquis's wife, that's fine. As long as you are willing, I can even resign from my official position and accompany you to travel around the world and travel freely and freely."
Youyou, who had been listening quietly, finally couldn't help but ask: "Oh? My Lord Marquis can actually give up this wealth and prominent status and be willing to let go of everything and run away with me?" Her eyes were fixed on Xu Lingyi, as if she wanted to distinguish the truth from his expression and eyes.
Facing Youyou's questioning, Xu Lingyi nodded without hesitation and replied: "That's right, as long as it is what you want, Lianfang, no matter how difficult and dangerous the obstacles are, I will do my best to achieve it." His tone was firm and resolute, as if he was ready to give everything for this relationship.
"Is what the Marquis said true?" Youyou widened her eyes and looked at Xu Lingyi suspiciously, with a hint of disbelief in her voice. Her beautiful face turned slightly pale because of nervousness, and her hands twisted together unconsciously.
Xu Lingyi's heart softened when he saw Youyou like this. He nodded and answered solemnly: "Of course it is true. Once I say something, I can't take it back. How could it be false?" His eyes were firm and gentle, as if he could see the anxiety and expectation deep in Youyou's heart through her eyes.
Hearing Xu Lingyi's affirmative answer, Youyou felt a little relieved, but then new worries came to her mind. She bit her lip and said softly, "My Lord, you can come to propose marriage, but... you have to deal with my parents yourself. I won't interfere. They have always attached great importance to my marriage. If they knew about this, I'm afraid they wouldn't agree easily." As she spoke, Youyou sighed softly, with a little helplessness in her eyes.
Xu Lingyi smiled slightly and comforted her, "Okay, don't worry. I will handle it properly and will not make things difficult for you. Lianfang, just prepare to get married peacefully and don't worry about other things." His tone was full of confidence, which made people trust him.
"Then I will be looking forward to the good news from you, my Lord!" Youyou said with a sweet smile. Her big watery eyes sparkled like the bright stars in the night sky.
Xu Lingyi, who was standing by, raised his lips slightly, revealing a gentle smile: "Lian Fang, actually you don't have to be so distant, you can call me brother Lingyi like before."
