Chapter 231 Jealousy
Chapter 231 Jealousy
Mo Xuan dislikes Ling Yuan for no reason other than disliking him. He can accept Lu Jinyan marrying someone else, and he can accept Ruo Han, but that doesn't mean he can accept just anyone.
"Alright, alright, you're not jealous, you're not jealous, fine, I'll listen to you!" Lu Jinyan sighed. It was obvious she was jealous. She even brought up his reputation. Didn't he also move in with her before they were even engaged?
However, Lu Jinyan did not reveal that she had let Lingyuan stay in her courtyard to facilitate the strategy, but what Mo Xuan said was also true.
Ling Yuan has no official status and lives in her courtyard, which may not be good for his reputation. Although he is a demon slave, he is still a human. If one day he meets the one he loves, but she misunderstands him because of this, it will be troublesome.
She currently has no romantic feelings for Ling Yuan whatsoever, and as for whether she will in the future, she doesn't know, but she has to think long-term.
Ling Yuan is currently just her target for conquest. If she still doesn't have any romantic feelings for Ling Yuan after completing the conquest mission, then she will let him go. It's always good to be careful about some things.
She had only promised last night that she wouldn't kick him out, but today she wanted him to move to a different courtyard. She was still a little guilty. Fortunately, Mo Xuan took care of the matter, so she didn't have to deal with it herself.
"Alright, you stay here and keep an eye on the courtyard. If you need anything, you can go find Chu Chu. She's the head housekeeper now. I have something to do, so I'll go take care of it first and come back to keep you company later." Lu Jinyan patted Mo Xuan's hand, then got up and left.
"Alright, Yan'er, go ahead if you have something to do!" Mo Xuan was very happy to receive Lu Jin Yan's permission.
Lu Jinyan did have things to do. She hadn't thought much about it before, but Mo Xuan reminded her just now that Mo Xuan and Ruohan were living together without any official status.
Although the demon race doesn't care much about these rules, she is human and she cares. Even if people don't say it on the surface, they might gossip about it behind her back. She doesn't want Mo Xuan and Ruo Han to be talked about. They made concessions for her, so she should do something for them too.
Lu Jinyan first went back to her own courtyard and asked Ling Yuan to increase her favorability. After successfully seeing the favorability increase from four to five, she went to Ruohan's courtyard and did the same thing to increase Ruohan's favorability. Ruohan's favorability is now at 89%, and success is just around the corner!
After cultivating two waves of goodwill, she went to Lin Churan's courtyard to visit Qin Hao. She had to admit that Qin Hao was quite handsome, but he was too thin and weak. However, he had improved a lot in the past few days and was already able to get out of bed and walk around.
She told Qin Hao that there was hope for his revenge, and hoped that he would recover soon so that he could personally witness his great revenge being fulfilled. After all, Mo Xuan had promised her, and he would naturally do it; she still believed in that.
Finally, Lu Jinyan went to Chu Chu's courtyard. Chu Chu was looking down at something, very intently, and didn't even notice Lu Jinyan's arrival.
"Chuchu, what are you looking at so intently?"
"Yanyan! You're here? You've come at the right time. Hurry up and choose for yourself, my eyes are getting tired of looking at everything!" Chu Chu pushed a pile of things on the table in front of Lu Jinyan.
Lu Jinyan then noticed that there were booklets on the table, with pictures of all kinds of clothes.
"Chuchu, what's this?"
"Wedding dress! Didn't you say before that you were going to start preparing for your marriage with Brother Ruohan? Of course, you need a wedding dress for the wedding!" Chu Chu rolled her eyes. So, she wasn't really concerned about her own wedding at all?
"Wedding dress? This is too fast!" Lu Jinyan was still thinking of getting engaged first, but Chu Chu has already taken a liking to the wedding dress!
"What's so fast about it? Yan Yan, you don't know, these are the best clothing shops in Ruoshui City. Their business is booming. Besides, do you think wedding dresses are just any old clothes? They all order custom-made dresses months in advance. If you don't order now, where are you going to conjure one up on your wedding day?"
"Besides, I've already asked about the wedding dresses from these companies, and the earliest I can go is three months from now. If we don't hurry now, the wait will probably be four or five months from now!" Chu Chu looked at him with a disappointed expression. Why did it have to be like her getting married?
"That's outrageous?" Lu Jinyan was also surprised that a wedding dress would take so long. She couldn't help but become much more serious.
She looked through all the booklets on the table and finally chose two sets for men and one set for women: "I think these three are good. What do you think, Chuchu?"
"You're getting married, so of course, whatever you like is fine. Now that you've made your choice, I'll have Liu Qing pay the deposit in a bit, and then they'll arrange for someone to come and take your measurements." Chu Chu put away the booklet, then checked off the three outfits she had chosen and handed them to Liu Qing. Liu Qing took the booklet and left.
"Yanyan, do you have any thoughts about time? Do you want to marry Brother Ruohan first, or Brother Moxuan first?"
“There’s no rush. Didn’t you say that the wedding attire would take at least three months? So let’s wait a bit longer. But we can get engaged first. After all, they’re living in the mansion without any official status, and I don’t want to hear any gossip.” Lu Jinyan explained her thoughts to Chu Chu and then told her about Mo Xuan’s identity.
"What? Mo Xuan is actually the Demon King's son?" Chu Chu was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.
That's the Demon King's son! He's going to marry his own sister? Doesn't that make her a relative of the Demon King? How exciting!
"Yes, he only told me about it yesterday, so we've been thinking of getting engaged first. After all, given his status, we can't let people gossip about him!"
Putting aside whether Mo Xuan minds or not, the Demon King definitely does. She already finds it unbelievable that he agreed to them being together, and if any rumors spread, the Demon King might change his mind.
"That's true. I'll pick a few auspicious days first, and then Yan Yan can choose one, and we'll hold an engagement banquet. By the way, since Mo Xuan is the Demon King's son, has Yan Yan thought about his relationship with Brother Ruo Han?"
Chu Chu was a little unhappy. At first, she thought that Ruo Han and Yan Yan should get married as soon as possible, and Ruo Han should be the main husband. As for Mo Xuan, he could be a concubine. After all, in Chu Chu's eyes, Mo Xuan was not as good as Ruo Han.
But now the situation is different. Mo Xuan is the son of the Demon King, so he definitely can't be made a concubine. Otherwise, the Demon King is not someone to be trifled with.
