Hearing this, the girl gently turned her eyes to look over there.

The man was quite handsome, but he seemed to be used to a life of luxury. He had all the problems that other rich young men from aristocratic families had. He was fat and looked at people with disdain.

The two young ladies stood up and bowed to him in greeting.

"…Meet Master Chen."

Chen Liang just glanced at them briefly, then walked forward as if he had no interest, with a hint of anxiety between his brows.

He reached out and grabbed the corner of his mother's sleeve and whispered to her: "Mother... Fuying..."

The expression of Lady Jiading Marquis faded a little. She glared at him lightly, perhaps thinking that her son was hopeless and wanted to change the subject.

"Brother Liang, you have an exam the day after tomorrow, so you should go review your lessons. Don't go out anymore... and don't let the teacher tell you."

The girl had also heard that the eldest son of the Jiading Marquisate was really lucky. The old marquis specially founded a school for him, and three teachers revolved around him... Despite such high hopes, it seemed that he was still mediocre in his previous life and failed to pass the imperial examination.

Hearing this, the young man's brows dimmed a little, and he was about to be taken away by the housekeeper.

At this moment, a gentle cry was heard from outside the door.

"What are you going to do? Let me go! Liang Lang... Liang Lang, save me!"

Hearing these words, the call to Chen Liang sounded quite intimate, and the people in the flower hall couldn't help but have different expressions.

Ruan Yuluan stretched out her fingertips, picked up the teacup on the table beside her, took a sip gently, and an almost inaudible smile flashed across her lowered eyes.

The Jiading Marquis's wife's expression changed, but Chen Liang reacted quickly and rushed out the door, shouting loudly: "Fuying...all of you get out of here, I want to see who dares to pull her?!"

A moment later, the young man was seen walking into the hall holding a young and delicate woman in his arms.

The two knelt down together and pleaded earnestly to the Marquis' wife, "Mother, please help us!"

The wife who had not understood what was going on at first also understood it. She looked at the brothel girl again and saw the curve of her belly bulging. She understood most of what was going on and could not help but ask the Marquis's wife, "What is this...?"

She didn't say anything final... If the Marquis's wife could come up with a reasonable solution, then she would naturally be willing to go along with it. Since she could marry her concubine's daughter into the Marquis's mansion and make the Marquis's mansion owe her a big favor, why not do it?

The expression on Lady Jiading's face could almost be described as gloomy at this moment. She could only explain to her wife in a low voice with embarrassment: "... She is just a woman that Liang Ge'er keeps outside. She is not a problem."

As he spoke, he gestured to the housekeeper standing nearby.

Seeing this, the burly steward was about to step forward and grab the woman and drag him out.

Hearing this, Fu Ying turned her eyes in panic and happened to meet the eyes of the girl next to her. The other party lowered her eyelashes and quickly retracted them.

"Madam, you can't do this to me!" She struggled hard, not hesitating to put all the chips she could on the line, "I'm already pregnant with Liang Lang's child... Madam, this child is mine and Liang Lang's! You can't just chase me away like this!"

Chen Liang also chimed in: "Please beg mother for mercy!"

Amidst the noise, the third lady spoke at the right moment, her voice neither too high nor too low, just enough for the mistress to hear.

"...Today in the Jiading Marquis's Mansion, I have really opened my eyes. It's like setting up a stage in the opera house for a performance!"

A hint of coldness slowly spread between the lady's eyebrows.

"Madam Hou, it seems that your master has no interest in the marriage between our two families...why don't we just call it quits?"

The wife of Marquis Jiading was so angry at the two of them that she almost fainted. She swayed and held onto the maid's hand, taking a breath with difficulty.

"Madam Ji...we can still discuss this matter in the long run."

At this moment, Fuying was pulled by the housekeeper, and her lower back hit the corner of the chair. She let out a soft cry and threw herself into the young man's arms with tears in her eyes.

Chen Liang protected her. With his beloved woman and her unborn child, he felt as if he had the courage to stand up to the sky.

"It is absolutely impossible for mother to separate us as a pair of lovers!"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Ruan Yuluan and his tone became a little colder.

"Don't be so delusional. Even if you marry into my family... you'll just be a decoration in my house!"
