Chapter 123

"What do you mean?"

Xu Yuan sneered and looked at the two with interest.

"Shen Yun'an, don't you really know why Lu Rou is here? Why do you pretend to be confused when you know the truth?"

Shen Yun'an's pupils suddenly shrank. This time he understood that Xu Yuan must know something.

Whether it was a matter of substitution or something else, Shen Yun'an's uneasiness reached its peak at this moment.

He looked at the people present and then looked at Xu Yuan, feeling both scared and terrified.

Lu Rou thought she had Shen Yun'an's support, and her attitude became more and more presumptuous.

"Brother Yun'an, the lady is clearly..."

"Shut up!" Shen Yun'an was stunned that Lu Rou could no longer disagree, but her current actions had obviously damaged her own interests.

Lu Rou widened her eyes, shocked by Shen Yun'an's sudden momentum, and tears fell.

Just as Shen Yun'an was thinking about what to say to Xu Yuan, he saw a figure hurriedly walking out of the Duke's Mansion.

Xu Jing's eyes were gloomy, and there was a surging murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yun'an.

"Shen Yun'an, you are so bold that you dare to bring people to the Duke's Mansion to cause trouble!"

After Xu Yuan left, Xu Jing found Cui Liu and the wet nurse to understand the situation. Unexpectedly, since he went back last time, Shen Yun'an not only did not restrain himself but became more rampant.

When he thought about how his daughter had suffered so much injustice in the Marquis' Mansion and had to pretend that nothing happened in front of him, Xu Jing wanted to kill Shen Yun'an.

The moment Shen Yun'an saw Xu Jing, his body trembled unconsciously, and he took a few steps back, his voice was extremely unnatural.

"Father-in-law...Father-in-law."

"Don't call me father-in-law!" Xu Jing was full of disgust and shouted at Shen Yun'an.

"Shen Yun'an, what did you promise me at the beginning? Now you have caused so many troubles again. Do you think that our Duke's Mansion is easy to bully?"

Xu Jing scolded Shen Yun'an.

Shen Yun'an's face flushed after being scolded by Xu Jing's words, but it was true that Lu Rou was taken into the mansion, and he had no way to defend himself on these matters.

But didn't Xu Yuan say that by signing the letter of commitment, he could cover up these things and not tell others, but what was it now, going back on his word.

Thinking of this, Shen Yun'an looked at Xu Yuan with more and more hostility.

The people around him also understood what happened. It turned out that a concubine ran to the mistress and acted arrogantly.

Or ran to the mistress's family, it would be impossible to say that there was no one behind to support her.

For a while, everyone looked at Shen Yun'an with more contempt.

Shen Yun'an felt embarrassed when he was looked at by these eyes.

But at this time, only Xu Yuan could solve the problem.

He came to Xu Yuan's side and persuaded her in a low voice, "Madam, there are so many people here, do you really want to make things out of control?"

"Shen Yun'an, you know that it was Lu Rou who ran to the Duke's Mansion first."

How could Xu Yuan not know what Shen Yun'an was thinking.

It was nothing more than that he felt that his face was damaged because of this disturbance.

Now that he knows how to be ashamed, what else could he have done before

? "Shen Yun'an, if you don't bring your concubine with you, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Seeing that Shen Yun'an dared to talk to his daughter at this time, Xu Jing became even more angry and ordered the guards present to take action directly.

Shen Yun'an saw that Xu Jing was serious this time, and did not dare to be negligent anymore. He dragged Lu Rou and left directly.

If something really happened here, he, the marquis, would really become a laughing stock in the capital.

The people around him all dispersed and entered the Duke's Mansion. Xu Jing called Xu Yuan to the study.

The atmosphere in the study was very depressing.

"Father, there is no need to be angry for Shen Yun'an." Xu Yuan saw this situation and spoke first.

"Yuan'er, Shen Yun'an is naturally not worth your anger, but you..."

Xu Jing looked at Xu Yuan, angry and helpless.

"You have suffered such a great injustice in the Marquis' Mansion, why don't you tell your father."

Xu Yuan naturally understood that her father was speaking up for her.

"Father, this matter..." She actually wanted to tell Xu Jing that she did not suffer any loss in these matters, but under the current circumstances, her father might not believe it.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan could only say to Xu Jing in a more tactful way, "Father, do you still remember what I asked Cui Liu to send back some time ago?"

"Are you talking about the letter of commitment?"

Xu Jing asked.

When he saw the letter of commitment, he thought Shen Yun'an had decided to reform, but when he heard Xu Yuan's words now, it seemed that there was another meaning.

Under Xu Jing's gaze, Xu Yuan could only talk about what had happened during this period and what he planned to do.

Only after hearing everything did Xu Jing's frown relax.

"So, Yuan'er, you planned all this."

"That's right, father, you don't have to worry about your daughter being at a disadvantage."

"Even if that's the case, Shen Yun'an dared to keep a mistress behind your back and made a substitution, which is already unfair to you."

What Xu Jing couldn't stand the most was that a mistress dared to come here and act wildly.

"Yuan'er, now that you're back, don't go back again."

Xu Jing's tone was firm. After all these things, he would never allow his daughter to suffer in the Marquis' Mansion.

"Okay."

This time, Xu Yuan answered straightforwardly.

She really had no plan to go back this time. Some things had been delayed for too long.

It was time to make a plan.

Xu Jing was a little surprised to hear Xu Yuan's answer, with a look of joy on his face, "Yuan'er, I will have someone write a divorce letter tomorrow and send it to Shen Yun'an."

"You only need to take Yi'er to recuperate in the mansion during this period, and leave other matters to your father."

"Father."

Xu Yuan looked at Xu Jing, "Do you believe your daughter?"

Xu Jing was stunned. He didn't expect Xu Yuan to ask this question. He nodded immediately.

"Yuan'er, of course your father believes you."

Xu Yuan was moved and continued to say to Xu Jing, "Then please let your daughter handle it herself."

This is the grudge between her and the Marquis' Mansion, and the connection between them needs to be cut off by herself.

Although her father can solve some problems, he will also be involved in some turmoil. The most important thing is Yi'er's life experience.

With Lu Rou's recklessness, she is afraid that the substitution will be exposed soon. Before that, she must find clues related to Yi'er's biological father.

To ensure that everything will be foolproof in the end.

Otherwise, even if Shen Yun'an and the people in the Marquis' Mansion paid the price, Yi'er would definitely be criticized in her future growth.

This was the situation she least wanted to see.

"Father, I will take care of it."

Seeing Xu Jing didn't say anything, Xu Yuan looked determined and said word by word to the person in front of her, to show her determination at this time.

"Yuan'er you..." After hearing these words from

Xu Yuan, Xu Jing felt that his daughter had grown up, but also felt sad.
