"Speaking of which, there’s sothing you should know. Chen Ruochu’s legitimate sister is also among the candidates for concubines."
Xia Zheng was aware of the conflicts between Lin Yuan and the Chen family, so it’s no wonder he specifically ntioned Chen Leyao.
However, Lin Yuan was evidently sowhat surprised by this news.
"Chen Leyao? She actually managed to latch onto the Royal family? It seems Lady Jiang really put in a lot of effort on this matter!"
Back then, Lady Jiang almost fell into Wu Jiangtao’s trap trying to marry her daughter into the Royal family. Unexpectedly, she eventually got what she wanted.
Xia Zheng curled his finger at Lin Yuan: "She’s only on the list of candidates; it’s still uncertain if she’ll be selected! If you don’t like it, I can..."
"No need."
Lin Yuan knew that, with Xia Zheng’s abilities, he could indeed ensure Chen Leyao would not be selected. However, there wasn’t much conflict between her and Chen Leyao, at most just so disagreents with Lady Jiang.
She didn’t want to let her own disagreents with Lady Jiang affect Chen Leyao’s future fortunes.
After all, Chen Leyao and Lin Wei were still fairly good friends!
"Whether or not she gets selected is her own destiny, so let’s not interfere."
As she spoke, Lin Yuan gently stroked her belly. The little one inside had just kicked again — perhaps it also didn’t want her to interfere in this matter?
The half-month period quickly arrived, and today was the day Chanyin Pavilion continued with The Butterfly Lovers. On such an important day, Lin Yuan naturally had to attend.
When the premiere of The Butterfly Lovers was perford, the Chanyin Pavilion was described as bustling; today, it should be said that the scene is packed to capacity.
There were truly too many people coming to watch the play!
Lin Yuan’s carriage was stuck at the entrance for a long ti without making much progress, until Xia Zheng decisively instructed Lin Yi to drive the carriage to the back entrance of Chanyin Pavilion.
It was so crowded outside, and the inside of Chanyin Pavilion was also packed. When Lin Yuan ca in, there was no seat on the first floor, and all seats on the second and third floors had been pre-booked, leaving no available space.
"Your idea was really good, our Chanyin Pavilion’s seats were booked out right after the premiere, and there have even been people who reserved spots on the first floor in advance!"
Business was booming, and as the boss, Yan Ruchun was naturally in high spirits. She started chatting away as soon as she saw Lin Yuan, without any intention of stopping.
Lin Yuan couldn’t help but glance behind her, taking advantage of a pause in Yan Ruchun’s breath to remind her: "Don’t just focus on , you should also take care of your Eldest Young Master Wei!"
Yan Ruchun froze, following Lin Yuan’s gaze to see Wei Boyu standing behind her without her noticing.
Her face flushed, and after throwing a reproachful glance at Lin Yuan, she lowered her head and went to the elegant room on the third floor with Wei Boyu. As for what the two were going to do, one could guess just from the fiery looks exchanged.
With Wei Boyu here, Wei Borong and Xu Muqing naturally wouldn’t be left behind. Sure enough, as soon as Yan Ruchun and Wei Boyu left, the two chubby ones puffed and panted their way up to the second floor.
"Oh, Yuanyuan, you’re here too!"
Upon seeing Lin Yuan, Xu Muqing jogged over, her plump body wobbling humorously.
Lin Yuan couldn’t help but hold her forehead, wondering how this girl seed to have gained another circle of weight in such a short ti.
Afraid that Xu Muqing’s chubby body would bump into Lin Yuan, Xia Zheng hurriedly spread his arms to shield his beloved wife.
But, in front of a woman built like an ox and with the strength of one, Xia Zheng’s petite fra seed as feeble as a little chick.
With a wave of her hand, Xu Muqing pushed the botherso Xia Zheng aside, plunked her big posterior on the stool next to Lin Yuan, and started asking her all sorts of questions.
"Why haven’t you been out these days? Look at the flesh on your face, it’s almost as chubby as mine. Oh my, have you been secretly eating sothing delicious at ho? Did you bring any? I haven’t had your cooking in a while, just talking about it makes hungry!"
Xu Muqing’s big eyes roved over the table and quickly locked onto the delightfully tempting and beautifully crafted Taro Osmanthus Cake, grabbing one in each hand to eat.
"You don’t know, the area outside Chanyin Pavilion today is so crowded. Luckily, Brother Rong and I were smart and squeezed into the gaps in the crowd to get in. Otherwise, we’d definitely still be squeezed outside now!"
Lin Yuan chuckled, while over where Xu Muqing had squeezed him away, Xia Zheng rolled his eyes and unceremoniously revealed the truth: "Are you sure you squeezed through gaps, and didn’t just rely on your tall and robust figure to push people aside? Mmh!"
