Chapter 144.3: Poetry Gathering, Double Fifth, Falling for a Trap

Jing Wan very inelegantly rolled her eyes at him, If theres really someone that lecherous, just directly tell them, these two were given to me by the Grand Elder Princess, older sister-in-law was worried about you, so borrowed them from my place for you to take out. This way, those people should understand, and in the future, probably no one will gift you beauties anymore. As for those that approach on their own, are you not able to take care of yourself? With a banner in sight, itd be a waste to not pull

. She believed her adoptive mother wont bicker with her either. In any case, if something happens, she will still back her up. After all, right now, she had half a wenzhu t.i.tle. If she were to randomly let someone sweep her face, perhaps the Grand Elder Princess might even be disappointed with her. A persons status determined many things. Blindly being good-natured, others will just feel youre weak and easy to bully, and itll also undermine the dignity of the people behind you. Deep down, she was never one that only knew to shrink back to begin with. Right now, she further ought to be unyielding.

Sun Yi Jia looked to Jing Wan, Little sister Wan, this is making a violent wife reputation for me?

Give and take, only by giving up can one gain in return. If Luo third young master has a rouge tiger at home, and Luo third young master also fears his wife like a tiger, then nine out of ten people will also all settle down. What are you still worried about your reputation for? Jing Wan unconcernedly said.

I dont mind, just.

Little siss words are very right. Yi Jia, youll just have to endure it. Luo Jing Bo gently chuckled. As for him fearing his wife and whatnot, he didnt mind in the slightest, taking the two stunning beauties and leaving nonchalantly.

Towards Luo Jing Bos such open-mindedness, Sun Yi Jia was also rather speechless.

Jing Wan stroked Sun Yi Jias head, just like consoling a child, smilingly opening her mouth, Older sister-in-law rest a.s.sured, grandmother doesnt even bother with matters in her own sons courtyard, so how would she interfere in her grandsons? Grandfather is also the same. In contrast, if something like favoring the concubine and neglecting the wife were to happen, he would even be ruthlessly beat up. My mother also wont bother with how her daughter-in-law handles things, and as for my father, even if he has an opinion, he would still keep it to himself. If he dares to lecture you, Ill let grandmother sort him out.

Sun Yi Jia really admired Jing Wans mentality, Youre practically just rebelling against social norms, disobeying ones elders and unfilial.

Jing Wan snorted, completely not taking it seriously.

Good little sister, these words are fine in private, but you mustnt say these outside.

What are you foolishly worried for, would I not have even this bit of propriety?

Meanwhile, after Luo Jing Ying returned back, she applied medicine to her wrist, but it didnt seem to do anything much. She was rather adamant about not wanting to go look for Liu-s.h.i.+, but she ultimately couldnt bear it. When she found Liu-s.h.i.+, she couldnt help shedding tears in streams, just feeling unbearably wronged. Even when suffering such a huge grievance, her mother was all able to not care about her.

Liu-s.h.i.+ momentarily softened up, but it was only just a moment. This was just a white-eyed wolf. No matter how good you were to her, she will never remember.

Mother, it hurts

Endure it even if it hurts, that is all your own fault. Luo Jing Ying ran to Elegant Haitang Residence again, always forgetting the pain after the scar heals. She has never beaten Jing Wan before, yet still never learning to avoid, charging around violently like an idiot. No matter how much she suffers, it was all deservedly so.

Mother, how can you be like this, Im your biological daughter. Luo Jing Ying couldnt help roaring out.

Biological daughter? Liu-s.h.i.+ coldly laughed, You want me to be a good mother, but have you ever been a good daughter? Others being good to you, that is just rightfully so, and if theyre not good to you, youll feel wronged like its the end of the world, feeling everyone all owe you. Luo Jing Ying, how big is your face? Get lost.

Alright, mother, you better not regret it. Luo Jing Ying turned and ran.

Liu-s.h.i.+ quite regretted, regretted having her raised into this behavior. One has to know, right now, her days also werent good. Some things, although werent very obvious, she still sensed it, especially her son, actually daring to talk back to her because of that Huan Niang. She was so angry her liver ached. If she doesnt think of a way to remedy the situation, then shell really become alone in solitude in her elderly years. Under such circ.u.mstances, still thinking of the Liu familys glory, those delusions? Taking care of the present before her eyes was the most important.

Thats why, ultimately an experienced person. Liu-s.h.i.+ wouldnt go as far as to be the same as Luo Jing Ying, unable to wake up from beginning to end, unable to see clearly.

What Luo Jing Bo took part in can be considered the double fifth literature gathering, and it was rather grand. Every single young scholar in capital, for the most part, were all present. Such a good opportunity to rope in people, a certain few w.a.n.gyes naturally wont miss out on.

The literature gathering was set up in a patch of rubble stone forest in the southern outer area of the imperial city. Although said to be rubble stones, the stones here actually all have different shapes, possessing unique form and aesthetic. There was no human sculpting, but rather a natural masterpiece even more exquisite than human sculpting. In addition to some restless trees mix in between, and after meticulous tr.i.m.m.i.n.g and tending, then transplanting some flowers, having some of the scattered stones cleared away, and sculpting some natural stone tables to place in between, this place became one of the most beautiful natural scenery.

(T/N: Below are examples of a stone forest; these stones are naturally formed by nature.)

This place was tacitly agreed upon to be the place of scholars. Practically everyday there were people coming to visit. And relatively large-scaled literature gatherings, for the most part, were all at this place.

Because Luo Jing Bo had to wait for Jing Wan to put on makeup for the two beauties, itd taken quite some time, leaving much later than antic.i.p.ated, so naturally hed arrived late. Those heavenly n.o.ble descendants have already all gathered. As such, Luo Jing Bo who appeared with two beauties instantly attracted numerous gazes.

Even though Luo Jing Bo had already predicted this, he still paused his steps. Afterwards, he nonchalantly went forward to greet the n.o.ble personages.

Having gotten used to seeing fair skinned beauties, towards Hei Mei, this kind of unconventional beauty, everyone all couldnt help casting extra glances. Especially since she possessed a shred of unruliness, different from ordinary beauties, very easily evoking certain peoples desire to conqueror.

Thus, there really were those shameless few that began to stir.

Jing Bo has such good luck with women, where did you get these two peculiar beauties? The one who spoke was precisely Kang Qinw.a.n.g.

Luo Jing Bo looked to Kang Qinw.a.n.gs l.u.s.tful gaze, practically wanting to glue onto Hei Meis body. Luo Jing Bo felt unbearably disgusted inside. In the past, he wasnt able to come in contact with this circle. Those that hed came in contact with before, although didnt lack the l.u.s.tful type, they werent this shameless. For better or worse, youre still a qinw.a.n.g, do you have any less beauties at your side, even revealing such a look. Wasnt it rumored that he was deeply in love with his w.a.n.gfei? Oh right, that was already the former Kang w.a.n.gfei, just a dead person. Shedding that layer of shackles, so what if he lets himself go a little.

Thus, Luo Jing Bo directly threw out his killer move, having Jing Wans words brought out. They were given to this ones younger sister by the Grand Elder Princess. Todays occasion is grand, and certainly will also have beauties circling around. If this commoner were to come alone, wont one appear shameful? As a result, Yi Jia borrowed two people from this ones younger sister for the occasion. Luo Jing Bo carried a bit of nonchalant as he spoke.

This time, never mind Kang Qinw.a.n.g, the others gazes also successively froze.

Who was Luo Jing Bos younger sister? This simply didnt need to be asked. Oh, you say he still has two younger shu sisters? Really sorry, probably more than ninety-nine percent of the people present all didnt know there were still these two people.

Speaking of Jing Wans current status, the Grand Elder Princesss adopted daughter, Jin Qinw.a.n.gs fiancee, regardless whether it was the Grand Elder Princess or Jin Qinw.a.n.g, those were all people they cant afford to offend. As such, these two beauties, dont even think about having crooked thoughts towards.
