Chapter 331: Murder (1The Jing family finally arrived at the capital a few days later.
When the Jing couple found out about what happened between Jing Chuchu and Shen Yuan, they first cried with tears streaming down their faces. Then, they threatened to go to the governnt to sue Shen Yuan. They did not even agree to Jing Chuchu being engaged to Shen Yuan. However, everyone knew that the Jing couple was just putting on a show to make it seem like it was Shen Qiu who wanted to marry their daughter.
As expected of Old Madam Shen's family, they were also unreasonable if not more so. After a few rounds of conversation, the Shen family agreed to fork out a huge amount of betrothal money and promised to hold a grand wedding.
Old Madam Shen was full of complaints but she still had to pretend to be nice to the Jing couple. Not only did the Jing couple not leave imdiately after reaching the agreent, they made themselves at ho at the Shen mansion and ate all they wanted. In a fit of anger, Old Madam Shen locked herself up in Rongjing Hall and did not see anyone.
In just a few days, everyone in the capital knew that Shen Yuan was going to marry Jing Chuchu. The people did not know the inside story of it. They thought that Shen Yuan was attracted to Jing Chuchu's gentle temperant and was sincere to her.
Sun Cainan looked at the letter in his hand, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it away.
"Shen Yuan, that bastard!" he said hatefully.
It was not easy for him to find a woman he liked. Over the years, he already had enough of the won in the capital, but the feeling Jing Chuchu gave him was especially different. He had never failed to win the hearts of won he liked. In addition, this ti, he was serious and spent a lot of effort on Jing Chuchu. He did not expect Shen Yuan to step in and beat him to it.
The servant said carefully, "Miss Jing and Second Young Master Shen don't love each other. It was just an accident."
Sun Cainan had long heard about what happened at the Shen family's banquet from others. His face darkened. "That b*tch Jing Chuchu took my things and played ."
Sun Cainan was very displeased. He had seen many won like Jing Chuchu. As long as he gave them money and gifts, he could easily win their hearts. He speculated that the accident at the Shen family's banquet was most likely a sche Jing Chuchu ca up with. She was taking his things while planning to marry into the Shen family. To Sun Cainan, being played by a woman was the most humiliating thing. "But what do you plan to do now, Young Master?" The servant asked, "Are you going to et Miss Jing or not?"
Sun Cainan lowered his head to look at the invitation letter in his hand. The letter had a fragrance on it, like a girl's fragrance. Even though Jing Chuchu was about to marry soone else, she still wanted to tease him one last ti.
"Of course I'm going." Sun Cainan smiled. "I've given her so much money, but I haven't slept with her yet. I'm already furious that Shen Yuan beat to it. I won't let the matter rest unless I get a taste of her body." He glared at the servant. "Go, send a letter back. Tell her I'll be there."
fie,
Shen Yuan had not been in the mansion these days. No matter what the Jing family did, he rarely showed up. However, Chen Ruoqiu was troubled. On one hand, she had to try to appease Old Madam Shen, and on the other hand, she had to satisfy the Jing couple's demands. Looking at the deficits that were getting larger and larger, she felt a headache coming on.
"Wife, why do you look so troubled these days?" Shen Wan asked when he returned..
