MTL - The World I’m Wearing is Wrong-Chapter 78 Yuan Chen
The air freezes.
Both Bu Tian and Man Rufeng were keenly aware that something was wrong.
Half a minute later, Lantern said coldly, "My mother only gave birth to me."
Yuan Chen opened his mouth when he heard the words, and wanted to say something, but Yuan Xiao then said: "You don't have to pretend in front of me, this is not a sea market, and we are not in the Yuan family."
"Brother, you misunderstood..." Yuan Chen hurriedly said.
"Don't let me hear that word from your mouth again." Lantern said with disgust.
Yuan Chen closed his mouth and lowered his head in a pitiful manner.
Seeing him like this, Man Rufeng frowned. She looked at Yuan Xiao with disapproval in her eyes, and was about to say a few words for Yuan Chen, but before she spoke, Bu Tian spoke first.
"Miss Man, it's better for the other people not to interfere in the matter between them." Bu Tian said.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Man Rufeng looked at him in astonishment, Yuanxiao and Yuan Chen also looked at him, Yuan Chen's eyes had faint doubts, while Yuanxiao was full of complicated and intentional explanations, but it was not a good explanation here. place, he didn't know where to start.
Man Rufeng quickly sorted out his thoughts and said, "Mr. Bu, Yuan Chen and I are engaged next month, and we can't be considered other people." This is a confirmation of her relationship with Yuan Chen and her attitude.
"Engagement?" When Yuan Xiao heard these two words, his heart tightened, Yuan Chen actually wanted to be with Man Rufeng?
The Yuan family does not have the right to choose a marriage on their own. All marriages are linked to interests. Even if Man Rufeng has the capital to be favored for marriage, this is the capital, where the Yuan family dares not reach out. Are the three elders confused? ?
Also, why is it full of wind?
The entire upper-class circle of the capital, and even ordinary people knew that Bu Tian had been chasing Man Rufeng for three years. Before that, there were rumors that the two were about to get engaged. Why did Yuan Chen and Man Rufeng become engaged in the end? Behind this, is it a conspiracy against Bu Tian?
Or, Bu Tian... Was he implicated by him?
In just a short time, many thoughts flashed in Lantern's mind, and his expression became more and more gloomy.
"Brother..." Yuan Chen opened his mouth. He just started to call him, but he quickly pressed it down and said, "I want to talk to you alone, is it convenient for you?" He pointedly glanced at Bu Tian.
Lantern wanted to say "I have nothing to say to you" back to him, but he really cared about the truth behind Yuan Chen and Man Rufeng's engagement, so he nodded coldly.
He glanced at Man Rufeng again, then turned to Bu Tian, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Bu Tian took a panoramic view of his tangled emotions and said, "I'll wait for you in the car."
Yuanxiao wanted to say yes, but the words couldn't come out of his mouth, so he just nodded casually and looked away.
…
Yuan Xiao and Yuan Chen chose a secluded place, Yuan Xiao's expression was still cold, but Yuan Chen, after leaving the sight of Man Rufeng and Bu Tian, the cautious and pitiful look on his face disappeared without a trace, replaced by It is reckless and willful.
"Sorry, I still have to pretend to be in front of my girlfriend." Yuan Chen smiled and apologized carelessly.
Lantern's eyelids didn't move, he just looked at him indifferently and asked, "Why did you get engaged to Man Rufeng?"
Wen Yan Yuanchen raised his brows and pretended to be surprised: "I thought you would ask me why I came to the capital."
Lantern's eyes sank, "Answer my question."
"Are you angry? I'm so scared." Yuan Chen patted his chest and pretended to be scared, but the smile on his face was disgusting no matter what.
Lantern clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles rattling.
Seeing Zhuang Yuan Chen slowly restrained, but still provocatively said: "Why haven't you seen for a few years, and changed to a brutal and rude route?"
Lantern said coldly: "Would you like to try it, I'm sure you will spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair."
Yuan Chen's face stiffened.
Lantern Festival said: "I can also leave you with nothing."
Yuan Chen, who was still a little afraid, sneered when he heard the last sentence. He looked at Yuan Xiao with the eyes of a fool, and said slowly: "It seems that you really haven't paid attention to the Yuan family for the past two years..."
Lantern said nothing, waiting for his next words.
Seeing that Yuan Chen didn't answer, he felt a little regretful. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one himself, and handed it to Yuan Xiao. Yuan Xiao didn't even look at him. He shrugged indifferently and took back the cigarette pack. Take out the lighter and light it.
After taking a puff of cigarettes, he said, "More than a hundred years have passed since the era of the braided dynasty, and the tyranny and feudal rule of the three elders has come to an end."
Lantern was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly thumped wildly.
Yuan Chen was smoking a cigarette and playing with the lighter in his hand. He looked at the Lantern Festival and said meaningfully: "The emperor was abolished, the imperial power was divided, the court officials rebelled, the Yuan family, there is no more throne for you to inherit."
Lantern Festival could clearly hear the sound of his heart thumping and beating wildly, and it was so difficult for him to find his own voice: "Elder San, down?"
The three elders he mentioned were Yuan Feng, the head of the Yuan family, and a local emperor who had dominated the sea market for more than half a century.
"Are you asking the literal meaning or the deep meaning?" Yuan Chen asked rhetorically.
Lantern frowned.
Without waiting for him to choose, Yuan Chen explained to himself: "Literally, the old man has been a senior in three years, and unfortunately he has esophageal cancer, which is in the advanced stage, and now he can only lie in the hospital bed and wait to die; The relatives who had no relationship and accepted a new type of education, longing for freedom and wanting to break the feudal remnants joined hands to bring down the three elders from that high position, completely tearing apart the Yuan family's 'unification of the world' situation and dividing up the Yuan family. Family property over 90."
"...They did it?" Lantern couldn't believe it.
Yuan Chen narrowed his eyes: "Did you know they would do it?"
Lantern Festival didn't answer, but asked, "How about 10?"
"The remaining 10... It is estimated that the third elder saved the building of the imperial mausoleum for his own funeral, right?" Yuan Chen said with a yin and yang anger, "Oh, no, it should be held in his hand and wait for you to go back to inherit the throne and make a comeback."
Yuanxiao was in a very good mood when he heard that the third elder fell, and for the time being he didn't care what Yuan Chen said.
He kept this in his mind for a while, and then asked, "They are all busy dividing up the family property, why didn't you get a piece of the pie?"
Wen Yan Yuanchen's eyes flashed a stern light, but it was fleeting, but it was still captured by Lantern.
Yuan Chen exhaled a puff of smoke and said indifferently, "I have no qualifications and experience, and I am not like you. I am a serious prince, and there is no one behind me. The only person who can fight for me is dead so early, I am afraid of me. As soon as the hand is stretched out, someone will chop it up."
Lan Sijing sneered: "Don't pretend to be weak like me. Like Lan Sijing, you will do whatever it takes to achieve your goals. You will watch the Yuan family's property being divided up and be indifferent? I think you are waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman. Also stretch out the tentacles, and drag as many as you can into the water."
Yuan Chen's face flashed with embarrassment after being poked at the center. He quickly adjusted his emotions and pretended to be calm: "It's really boring, you found out again." : "Speaking of which, my mother is also your aunt, so you can name her every word..."
"I didn't call her a 'bitch' to be polite." Lantern interrupted him, "And you, you have the same line of greed, arrogance, and viciousness in your bones, and you will do anything to achieve your goals. I advise you. Suicide, I don't want to end up in the same situation as Lan Sijing, it's enough to stop."
The calm and unwavering words made Yuan Chen's face turn blue and white for a while, but he couldn't maintain his "demeanor" for a while, and said in a wicked voice: "I don't need you to teach me, my mother didn't end well, your mother will just end... "
Before he finished speaking, his stomach had already been punched by the Lantern Festival.
Yuan Chen was beaten so much that he arched his body, staggered back two steps, and leaned against the wall, red from his neck to the back of his ears.
"Cough..." He tried his best to suppress the cough.
Lantern looked at him indifferently and said in a calm tone, "Don't let me mention my mother from your mouth, you are not worthy."
"Oh, I'm not worthy, I'm..." The words "her nephew" were already on the tip of his tongue, but when he raised his head to meet Yuan Xiao's eyes, the coldness in Yuan Xiao's eyes made him retreat.
He swallowed those words back into his stomach, his downcast eyes flashed with unwillingness and resentment, and when he stood up straight and looked at Lantern Festival, he regained his composure.
He stroked the slightly wrinkled shirt, and then said calmly, "I've already said what I should say. It's up to you to decide whether to go back and inherit the 10 that was buried with the third elder." After that, he planned to leave.
"Wait." Lantern stopped him, "You haven't answered why I am engaged to Man Rufeng."
Yuan Chen heard him say this, and asked with a half-smiling smile, "Is it considered a good thing for me to help you solve your rival in love?"
The alarm bell in Lantern's heart rang out: "What did you say?"
Yuan Chen laughed wickedly: "Don't thank me too much, by the way, I wish you and the Bu family three young masters: Yong, Jie, Tong, Xin, Bai, Tou, Da, Lao..." The words are good words, but they came out of his mouth. , but full of irony, every word is ridicule and banter.
Lantern's brain was blank for a moment, and after the blank, his whole thoughts were a little messy, but the more time this happened, the calmer he became. He thought quickly, connecting Yuan Chen's words from beginning to end and analyzing them in detail. Soon, he had A guess -
"It goes without saying that you are so righteous and selfless. You are engaged to Man Rufeng because you are interested in her family's mine. You want to increase capital investment in the division of the Yuan family's property, and you want to pull the Man family into the water." Guarantee that the guess must be accurate, but this is the most likely conclusion that he has analyzed, and he is testing.
Yuan Chen's face froze for a moment when his thoughts were revealed by one sentence. When Lantern tried, he kept staring at him, taking in every micro-expression he had. The brief stiffness confirmed Lantern's guess.
Yuan Chen also pretended to be easy to cover up: "I haven't seen each other for a few years, and you have really opened up your mind. To tell you the truth, Man Rufeng is my classmate. We started dating four years ago..."
"Impossible." Lantern interrupted him, "Four years ago, you were abroad, and you were sixteen years old."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I actually knew her when I was fifteen years old. She was three years older than me. I thought I was too young and refused to agree. I tried my best to chase her for a year before I finally got it." Yuan Chen added.
Lantern said with a cold face: "Man Rufeng returned to China three years ago."
Yuan Chen spread his hands: "So what, she returned to China, we didn't break up, we kept in touch every day, she would go abroad to visit me once every two months, I promised her that I would get engaged to her when I returned to China after graduation. Marry her when you are of legal marriage age."
His answer was flawless, and Lantern Festival fell into silence for a while.
"Speaking of which, I didn't expect that you actually like men. Guess, if the third elder knew your sexuality, would he die on the spot?" Yuan Chen smiled with a malicious look on his face.
Yuan Xiao didn't even give him another look, turned around and left.
"Hey, is this gone?" Yuan Chen shouted.
Looking at the back of Yuanxiao's disappearing, all the expressions on Yuan Chen's face faded like a tide. He stroked his belly with his left hand, and his eyes gradually turned cold.
"Lantern Festival, Solanum nigrum didn't let you lose a single hair. You are lucky. Today's punch, I wrote down. In the future, I want you to return it a hundred times, a thousand times."
