Chapter 193
Xiao Heng didn't hear Qiao Nian's accusation at the city gate more than half a month ago, but this round and round thing still reached his ears.
At last night's wedding banquet, some guests got drunk and talked about it with others.
It just so happened that that ‘other person’ was him.
Three years ago, he appeared with Princess Shu Yuan. When he saw Qiao Nian, she was accusing Lin Yuan, saying that Lin Yuan broke the glass bowl.
However, Lin Yuan's maid protected Lin Yuan and kept saying that Qiao Nian wanted to wrongly accuse her young lady.
The Lin family also stood by Lin Yuan's side, so he thought that the glass bowl was really broken by Qiao Nian.
He really thought that it was Qiao Nian who wanted to wrongly accuse Lin Yuan.
Therefore, he stood in front of Lin Yuan and blocked Qiao Nian's accusation.
Thinking about it now, he could clearly remember the look in Qiao Nian's eyes at that time.
It's shock, disbelief, disappointment, helplessness...
But despite this, he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
Lin Yuan had just been admitted back to the Hou Mansion. Even if Qiao Nian was unwilling and jealous, she shouldn't have wronged Lin Yuan!
But last night, he suddenly discovered that there was another truth three years ago.
This made his heart feel as if it was being burned by a raging fire, making him unable to rest at ease.
He stood outside Qiao Nian's new house for most of the night, just thinking about how helpless and desperate she would have been the moment she saw him standing in front of Lin Yuan, if she had really been wronged. …
When Lin Yuan heard Xiao Heng's question, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
She looked at Xiao Heng in shock, her lips trembling constantly, "I, I don't understand what Brother Heng means..."
Her face was pale and there were tears in her eyes, which made me feel pity for her.
But maybe Xiao Heng had seen Lin Yuan like this too many times, so he just said coldly, "Who broke the glass bowl three years ago?"
Lin Yuan had actually expected that Xiao Heng would ask such a question sooner or later.
After all, Qiao Nian tore up all the fig leaves in front of the city gate.
Therefore, she had already thought about how to deal with this problem.
At that moment, tears rolled down one drop after another, "Everyone saw it with their own eyes back then. It was my sister who broke the glass bowl. Why would Brother Heng ask me this now?"
Hearing this, Xiao Heng's eyebrows twisted slightly.
Everyone?
Thinking about it carefully, apart from Princess Shu Yuan and him who came late three years ago, the only ones present were the Lin family and Lin Yuan's maid.
After all, they are all her people.
His eyes darkened, Xiao Heng seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Your maid, her name is Xiaocui? Where is she now?"
Compared to the Lin family, Xiao Heng felt that maybe it was easier for the maid to tell the truth.
Lin Yuan did not expect that Xiao Heng would ask about Xiao Cui, so she immediately looked away, not daring to look at her, and only said in a trembling voice, "Xiao Cui has been kicked out of the Hou Mansion by her sister a long time ago, and she has not been with her since." She has not contacted me again, and I don’t know where she is now..."
Xiao Heng glanced at Lin Yuan. Perhaps there were so many tears in her eyes that Xiao Heng was not sure whether Lin Yuan was telling the truth.
He didn't speak anymore at that moment.
I just feel that if Xiaocui is still in Beijing, it shouldn't be difficult to find him.
When Lin Yuan saw that he had become silent, she thought that Xiao Heng still believed her, and she cried harder and harder, "So, did Brother Heng abandon me last night just because he suspected what happened three years ago?"
Xiao Heng remained silent and did not even look at Lin Yuan.
But Lin Yuan's grievance became more and more intense, "I know that Brother Heng has a sister in his heart, so even if Brother Heng said before that he wanted to marry his sister as an equal wife, I didn't have any complaints. But it was not my fault from beginning to end. Why did Brother Heng take his grievances out on me? Did Brother Heng see how ugly my mother-in-law looked when she saw that clean Xipa today? Do you know how many people in the house will gossip about me from now on? ? Wuwuwu..."
Lin Yuan kept crying.
She wanted Xiao Heng to understand how generous, gentle and rare she was.
She doesn't even care if he marries an equal wife!
So, he can't do this to her!
Xiao Heng frowned and thought of his mother's words again in his mind, so he suddenly stood up and walked to the bed.
Lin Yuan was slightly stunned when she saw his action, and she just thought, could it be that Brother Heng had figured it out and wanted to make up for what happened last night now?
Although it is daytime now, it is not impossible...
So, he hurriedly wiped away his tears and followed Xiao Heng.
The bed has been covered with new hippa.
Xiao Heng knew that this was his mother's silent urging.
He noticed the footsteps behind him, so he turned around and looked at Lin Yuan.
I saw tears hanging on Lin Yuan's small face, like a weak flower.
There was a bit of shyness in her eyes as she stared at him and called, "Brother Heng..."
Softly and softly, just one sound can make people feel chilled to the core.
There are probably not many men in this world who can bear such a call from Lin Yuan at this moment.
Can……
Xiao Heng suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist, cut his palm without any hesitation, then picked up the handkerchief and wiped the blood on it.
Lin Yuan was stunned by this scene.
But before she could react, Xiao Heng had already thrown Xipa into her arms, and asked in a cold voice, "Is that enough?"
Use this Xipa to block everyone's mouth.
From now on, Xiao's mother will no longer be cold-faced, and the servants in the house will no longer gossip.
Lin Yuan was stunned.
She didn't expect that her deep affection just now would only be exchanged for such humiliation.
Xiao Heng had already turned around and walked out.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan's question suddenly came from behind, "If you hate me so much, why do you want to marry me!"
Since you don't even want to touch her, why don't you cancel the engagement early?
I only heard that cold voice, which was infinitely cold.
"Our engagement is decided by our parents."
It's only the parents' orders.
The door was opened and closed again.
Lin Yuan held the wedding veil in her hand, looking at the bright red blood on it, and her whole body couldn't help trembling.
She slowly raised her eyes and looked around.
The festive colors in the room now seemed particularly dazzling!
Why, is it like this?
Just the parents' orders?
All his tenderness to her is also just because of the parents' orders?
Then, what about Qiao Nian?
What is he to Qiao Nian?
A surge of anger surged from her heart, and the strong unwillingness almost swallowed Lin Yuan.
She finally couldn't bear it anymore, and threw the wedding veil in her hand to the ground, accompanied by an angry roar, "Ah!"
It shouldn't be like this!
Her life after marrying Xiao Heng shouldn't be like this!
They should love each other!
She will give birth to a pair of lovely children for him, and live happily ever after!
But why... everything now is different from what she expected?
Her eyes fell on the wedding veil again.
The bright red blood on it seemed to be mocking her incompetence.
But...
She could only pick up the wedding veil and hold it carefully to her heart.
She knew that now, only this wedding veil could help her keep her position in the Xiao family!
