Chapter 218 It's good that you've thought it through.
Lu Jinyan was determined this time. Instead of dragging it out in fear, she decided to cut the Gordian knot and be honest all at once. As for how to choose, that was up to Mo Xuan.
Given Mo Xuan's personality, if he were to discover that she had lied to him, things would likely become even more complicated. Rather than that, it was better to tell him directly. In short, her feelings for Mo Xuan were genuine, but so were her feelings for Ruo Han.
"That's good, that's good. Now that Yan Yan has thought it through, I will definitely support her. Yan Yan just said that Brother Ruo Han agreed to marry her. Shouldn't our family start preparing for the wedding?"
Chu Chu's eyes sparkled. If she were to get married, she would have to start preparing early, otherwise she was afraid she would be caught off guard. Although she had never been married before, she knew that getting married was very troublesome.
Seeing Chu Chu's inexplicably excited expression, Lu Jinyan sighed and said, "I'm not in a hurry, so why are you? But what you said makes sense. We should start preparing. How about this, you take your time to prepare, and I'll pick a suitable time to be honest with Mo Xuan. The wedding dress and other things also need time to be prepared, so let's not rush and take it slow!"
However, despite saying that, she was still a little uneasy and didn't know how to tell Mo Xuan. In fact, Lu Jinyan had another concern: after all, Mo Xuan was the son of the Demon King, and the marriage probably wouldn't be settled so easily.
Given Mo Xuan's identity, it would be difficult for her to marry him. Leaving aside whether Mo Xuan himself would be willing, even if he were, the Demon King would not agree.
She had nothing; she even rented a house. She had no family background, no demonic power, and no connections. If she were in her shoes, she wouldn't want her pampered son to marry someone else and suffer.
The key point is that for Mo Xuan, getting married is easy, but getting married is a bit difficult. In the original story, it wasn't so easy for Mo Xuan to get together with Lin Churan.
Although the article doesn't describe their relationship in detail, only briefly mentioning it, it's not easy for her to imagine the process without the author writing it down.
Besides, Mo Xuan is destined to become the Demon King. What Demon King doesn't marry but instead marries someone else? Lu Jinyan felt a headache coming on.
This matter still needs to be addressed; we just need to think about how and when to say it.
Meanwhile, Mo Xuan also got up early in the morning. After thinking about it all night, he decided to reveal his true identity to Lu Jinyan. He hadn't told her before, firstly because he was afraid of scaring her, and secondly because he was worried that Lu Jinyan would stay with him because of his identity.
Although his status wasn't exactly of the highest nobility, there were quite a few people who wanted to marry into the Demon King's family. He had always known this, and countless people used various means to try and get close to him, so he was somewhat worried.
However, after spending time together, he realized that Lu Jinyan was not that kind of person. So now that they had established a relationship, they should be honest with each other. Otherwise, if she found out his identity from others, she would probably be angry.
So he asked Chu Li to prepare some gifts, and then the two of them, master and servant, brought the gifts to Lu Jinyan's residence. To be honest, he was a little unsure of himself. In the end, he didn't know what Lu Jinyan would think after she found out his identity.
Will she be angry because I kept it from her before?
"Master, you've been standing here for almost half an hour. Should I go knock on the door?" Chu Li asked, somewhat puzzled, looking at his master who was standing at the door, hesitating to move forward.
With such a noble status, those women would kill to be able to reach him, so why would he worry that Miss Lu would be angry?
The master didn't deliberately hide it from her; there was no other way back then. Miss Lu doesn't seem like such a petty person.
"Chu Li, what should I do if Yan'er gets angry?"
"If Miss Lu is angry, then Master can just coax her. Besides, Miss Lu is such a good person, she might not be angry with Master. After all, we had no choice but to not tell her in the first place."
At the time, the relationship between the master and the eldest son was tense, and the master was injured and reverted to his original form. Naturally, he dared not easily reveal his identity to outsiders. If someone had malicious intentions and handed the master over to the eldest son, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As for why he didn't tell her later, it was because he was afraid of putting Miss Lu in danger. He thought he would tell her the truth after dealing with the eldest young master's matter. Who knew that before the master could even go to find her, she came on her own. So this matter can't be blamed on the master.
While Mo Xuan was still debating whether to knock on the door, Lu Jinyan had already gotten ready to leave.
"Sister, are you going out?" Ling Yuan, who had been staying in his room, immediately came out when he heard the noise next door.
"Well, I have something to take care of. What's wrong? Is there something you need?" Lu Jinyan looked at Ling Yuan.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you could take me out for a walk. But since you have things to do, I won't bother you any longer!" Lingyuan lowered her head, looking obedient.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid it's not possible today. I have something to take care of today. How about tomorrow? I'll take you out for a walk tomorrow, okay?" Lu Jinyan was a little embarrassed. She had bought the man, but she had been busy with other things these past two days and hadn't paid much attention to him.
It's really unfair to leave him alone at home with no one to talk to. It seems we should arrange for a demon servant to be by his side, but that might not be possible in the next couple of days. We'll wait until she's finished with her work.
"It's alright, since you have things to do, sister, go ahead. I won't bother you any longer!" Lingyuan smiled, looking very understanding, and then turned to go back to her room.
"Wait!" Seeing Ling Yuan about to leave, Lu Jinyan suddenly remembered that she hadn't yet increased her favorability for today, so she called out to Ling Yuan.
"Is there anything else, sister?" Lingyuan stopped and turned to look at Lu Jinyan.
"It's nothing. Here, take this. If you're really bored, go find Chuchu and ask her to arrange someone to go out with you. If you don't want to go, then wait until I've taken care of my business, and I'll take you out tomorrow."
Lu Jinyan handed a pair of mandarin duck stones to Lingyuan. Lingyuan glanced at the red stone, smiled, and accepted it, saying, "Thank you, sister. Go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about me. I'll talk to you when you're done."
"Okay, then I'll be going!" Lu Jinyan nodded, thinking to herself that she still needed to make time to spend with him, after all, he was her target, and she couldn't just leave him hanging.
