Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"Which day?" Gu felt that she had heard something extraordinary. She didn't want to let this concubine's daughter be so proud, and was about to stop her.

"Last month, my family held a family banquet, but my wife was ill and did not attend. Yuan'er was also there that day, so the two children met each other~" Mrs. Jing only told half of the story and let them imagine the rest.

You are really good, why don’t you just say that you tricked me into doing this?

"Yan'er, why didn't you tell daddy? You made daddy go far away to find someone who is close to you!" Old Man Xu's face was full of complaints, but his tone was very doting.

"Well... I did meet the Seventh Prince that day, but I didn't say anything. I didn't know that the Seventh Prince thought this way..."

"Hahahaha! Fine, since we have a connection before, then daddy will take over for you. That's it!"

What the hell has been decided?

Xu Yixing still wanted to argue, but when he saw his father's smug look, he knew that he wouldn't listen to anything he said.

Forget it, I'll go back and ask Lu Anyuan about it. At worst I can just ask him to return it.

When Madam Jing left, Old Man Xu personally escorted her to the door and exchanged pleasantries for a long time before the conversation ended. Xu Yixing was about to leave in the main room, but was stopped by Gu.

"Xiaoyan, you gave your father such a big surprise without saying anything. That's a really good move." Gu smiled wryly, and was obviously very dissatisfied with the fact that she and Old Man Xu had directly sidelined her as the biological mother.

"Mother, what are you talking about? It's all thanks to you and father that I'm able to be where I am today. I'm very grateful to you."

Faced with such a rebuff, Gu moved his lips for a long time but said nothing. He let out a snort from his throat and walked away in anger.

Xu Yixing stared at her back, feeling more relaxed than ever before. If marrying the prince could make her angry, that would be quite satisfying.

"Siqin, go get the carriage, we're going to Jingxi Temple."

Of course, the purpose of going to Jingxi Temple was not to pray to the gods, but to meet Lu Anyuan and see what was going on in that person's mind!

Xu Yixing sat in the guest room and drank some water before waiting for Lu Anyuan who was late.

"You're looking for me, what happened?" Lu Anyuan stepped over the threshold, handed the cloak to Ah Da, and went into the quiet room alone. Xu Yixing also drove out the maid who followed him, and the two sat opposite each other, speechless for a while.

"Don't you know what happened?" How shameless this guy is.

"You were the one who asked someone to come find me, so naturally I don't know what happened on your side. Tell me!" Lu Anyuan still had a playful look on his face and refused to admit it.

Xu Yixing took a deep breath and silently said in his heart that he was a prince and he could not be beaten...

"Why did Madam Jing come to my house to propose marriage today? Didn't you clearly promise last time that you would not bother me again?"

"So that's why." Lu Anyuan picked up the teapot and wanted to pour himself a glass of water, but there was not a drop left in the pot, so he could only put the pot down awkwardly.

"I did agree, but that was because I thought you were Yi Yan. Now the situation has changed, and I have changed my mind."

Yixing, the Bodhisattva has finally given me another chance and sent you back, so don't think about leaving me so easily.

"I understand why you like Yi Yan, but I'm not her. You can't treat me as her just because I look like her now!"

Lu Anyuan: What, I like Yi Yan? How come I don’t know this!

He was moved and realized the key to the problem: it turned out that Yixing had always thought that he liked her sister, no wonder.

Of course, this is not Yi Xing's fault. Ever since she was reincarnated into Yi Yan, I have always treated her the same way I treated Yi Yan. After she admitted her identity that day, I did not explain it clearly, so it is no wonder that there was such a misunderstanding.

But Lu Anyuan didn't plan to say it. He had very little contact with Xu Yixing before. If he told her directly that he liked her, he was afraid it would scare her.

Moreover, he would rather Yi Xing think that he liked Yi Yan and not accept him, than hear her directly reject his feelings.

At least this way I can deceive his heart.

Even if you are being used, you must be someone who is useful.

"Actually, I made this decision after careful consideration. You can think about it." Lu Anyuan explained to Xu Yixing word by word, trying to make his reasons sound more utilitarian.

"First, you said last time that you didn't want to be randomly assigned a marriage. I guess you don't have any better place to go except marrying me, right?

Second, if you want revenge, you must rely on my power. Isn't suppressing Gu's private property a good example? Since you used my power, it's only right that you give me some rewards, right?

Third, and most importantly, I know your true identity. If you don't obey, I can use this to do a lot of things. Think it through for yourself."

With every reason Lu Anyuan gave, Xu Yixing became more discouraged. It was not until he said the last reason that she completely gave up the idea of ​​struggling.

Damn Lu Anyuan! He actually used this as a threat to force me to submit. He is really a villain!

But she seemed to suddenly remember what Lu Anyuan said that day, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"When you thought I was Yi Yan, you said that I could be her even if we were just a couple. Does that still count?"

Lu Anyuan didn't expect her to ask such a question, and he felt like he was stabbed in the heart.

The reason why I was a fake couple with Yi Yan was because I had no romantic feelings for her and I just wanted to repay her. But how could I be willing to do this with you, Yi Xing?

Lu Anyuan put his hands behind his back, looking at the pair of eyes flashing with hope, but that was not Yi Yan's eyes. Yi Yan's eyes were always as soft as water, and only Yi Xing's eyes could have so many emotions and feelings.

No! I can't look at her, I can't waver! This opportunity that I have finally got, I can't give it up easily!

"It depends on my mood."

Eh? Is this considered agreement or disagreement? Xu Yixing didn't understand.

Lu Anyuan could only complain in his heart. As expected, he still couldn't refuse Yixing. Alas!

"Forget it, let's not talk about these annoying things. Have you found any results in your investigation into the dungeon in the Sun Mansion?" Xu Yixing waved his hand and changed the subject.

Lu Anyuan felt sad. It turned out that the thing he was looking forward to so much turned out to be a bad thing for her.

"I haven't found any. My people have specifically interviewed the craftsmen who participated in the construction of the Sun Mansion. They all said that there are several secret rooms, but no dungeons."

Xu Yixing frowned, wondering why he couldn't find out. His shadow guards had sneaked in several times, but there was no report. But why did Si Wu have to tell this lie?

"Are you sure that Si Wu said last time that the dungeon was in the Sun Mansion?"

"She was interrupted when she said the dungeon was in 'Sun Mansion', but the complete sentence should be 'the dungeon is somewhere in Sun Mansion'." Xu Yixing scratched his head, he heard it clearly.
