Chapter 337 No Light
Rong Wenxuan looked at the girl in front of him with distress.
But no one knew that when he was just beginning to understand the world, she had disguised herself as a maid and slept with him. When he sobered up the next day, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was terrified all day, afraid that this scandal would be exposed and make the entire Rong family a laughing stock.
Although he was drunk at the time and did not do the last step, he still looked at her, kissed her, hugged her, and did many things he shouldn't have done, which had tarnished her innocence.
He couldn't escape, so he could only kneel before her and confess, explaining that it was an accident and that it wouldn't happen again. However, she wouldn't give up and used it as a threat. He knew it was wrong, so he didn't do what happened that day when he was drunk.
However, the truth could not be hidden, and after a long time, their inappropriate relationship was finally discovered. That day, all the relatives of the Rong family looked at him with disappointment, and his second uncle and aunt even called him worse than an animal. After discussing, the whole family decided to let them marry separately. No, they decided to let him become someone else's son-in-law, away from Rong Mingjin, to prevent the two of them from causing any more scandal.
When they made this decision, he was relieved. He had actually wanted to break away from this relationship for a long time, but Rong Mingjin refused to give up. She threatened him with death every time, forcing him to compromise again and again. Now that his family knew, he no longer had to worry about his secret being exposed, so he wanted to end the relationship once and for all.
"Brother, I don't want to marry anyone else." Rong Mingjin clutched Rong Wenxuan's clothes tightly, "I don't want you to marry anyone else either."
Rong Wenxuan stroked Rong Mingjin's hair and soothed her, "Jin'er, our relationship isn't right. You've been affected by what happened back then and have become overly reliant on your second brother. Actually, when we were in danger, your eldest brother made a lot of efforts to save us."
"I know my feelings very well. When you kiss me, I feel very happy. Doesn't my second brother like to kiss me too?"
"Stop talking." Rong Wenxuan was embarrassed.
How could he say that it was a man's instinct?
When he met Xia Ruwan, he was amazed and was willing to marry her.
During these days of getting along, he also put his heart into Xia Ruwan.
Now that she had finally stopped talking about breaking off the engagement, he wanted to put an end to all the past and have a happy marriage and children with her.
"Your wedding is coming soon. Prepare well and don't do anything stupid again." Rong Wenxuan let go of her. "On your wedding day, I will carry you to the sedan chair."
Rong Mingjin pushed him away angrily: "Are you in love with her? I don't allow you to like anyone else."
Rong Sheng's voice came from outside: "Greetings, Master."
Rong Wenxuan quickly let her go.
Fear also flashed in Rong Mingjin's eyes.
Rong Wenxuan stood up and wanted to find a place to hide, but Rong Jingbo had already walked in.
Rong Jingbo looked at the white silk hanging on the beam, pulled it, ripped it off and threw it on the ground.
He looked coldly at Rong Mingjin who was sitting on the ground and Rong Wenxuan who was obviously feeling guilty.
"Someone is coming..."
Several servants came in from outside.
"The Third Young Lady's wedding is approaching. She needs to learn etiquette carefully. Let the etiquette nanny teach her carefully. She is not allowed to finish before the wedding date."
"Brother, I don't want to learn any etiquette, let alone get married," Rong Mingjin said angrily. "If you marry me off, I'll be a widow tomorrow."
"It doesn't matter. Even if you're a widow, you're still the widow of the Li family." Rong Jingbo looked at her coldly, "Even if I die, I want to die in the Li family."
Rong Mingjin's face was full of fear.
Rong Jingbo's eyes told her that he really didn't care about her life or death, and the tricks she used on Rong Wenxuan were useless to him.
She has always been afraid of her elder brother, and she also knows that he is decisive and ruthless, and is the most trusted heir of the Rong family.
"And you..." Rong Jingbo looked at Rong Wenxuan coldly, "Originally, you were to marry first, followed by my third sister, but now the order is reversed. Once Mingjin gets married, your marriage should also be on the agenda. I hope both marriages go smoothly and without any complications. Otherwise, don't blame me, the eldest brother, for not caring about the brotherly bond. Rong Mingjin, even though those people are dead, there are still many clues if we investigate. Who do you think you can hide this from?"
Rong Mingjin's face turned pale: "Brother, I, I don't know what you are talking about."
Rong Wenxuan was puzzled and looked at Rong Mingjin with suspicion: "Brother, who is dead? What do you mean by that? What did you do?"
Rong Mingjin's face turned pale. "I don't know what you're talking about, brother. You must have misunderstood. Don't worry, I will marry honestly and won't make trouble again."
"That's better." Rong Jingbo turned away.
He walked to the door and turned his head to look at Rong Wenxuan: "Are you not leaving yet?"
Rong Wenxuan glanced at Rong Mingjin and followed Rong Jingbo with confusion.
After leaving the door, Rong Wenxuan asked, "Brother, what did you mean by what you just said?"
"Why did the Rong family invite Miss Xia to burn incense? Who suggested this? Why did Mingjin take Miss Xia to the back mountain to see the scenery? Where did those robbers come from, and who killed them? Rong Wenxuan, you think a woman is weak and pitiful because she sheds a few tears, but have you ever considered that some tears can actually kill people?"
"You mean Ming Jin...it's impossible. Although Ming Jin is a little willful, she is not such a cruel person."
"There's no cure." Rong Jingbo sneered, "Fortunately, the Rong family is not in your hands, otherwise, let alone the imperial merchant, I'm afraid they would have been eaten alive long ago."
"Brother, is it really Mingjin? Was she pretending when she was so scared that she wouldn't let go of me?"
"Guess." Rong Jingbo gave him a look of disdain, then turned to his men and said, "Did you make an appointment with Mr. Qin to inspect the goods today?"
"Yes," the attendant said, "We need to pick a batch of goods and send them to the border today."
"Let's go, don't keep Mr. Qin waiting for too long."
Rong Wenxuan stood there, feeling as if he had suffered a huge blow.
Rong Jingbo's disdain became even more obvious as he muttered, "A man without any sense of responsibility or courage, being played around by a woman, is truly a disgrace to the Rong family."
Although Xia Ruwan looked delicate, she had a personality similar to her mother's, a fiery one. He should be able to improve as her live-in son-in-law.
Suddenly, he felt that they were marrying into the Xia family, which was beyond their reach. After all, his indecisive brother couldn't support the family, so he could only rely on the blessings of his ancestors.
Rong Wenxuan stopped Rong Sheng and said, "Rong Sheng, did Tangshan send a piece of jade? Take that piece of jade to the craftsman to make a pair of jade pendants, and use the rest to make some more jewelry to send to the Xia family."
Rong Sheng said, "The Third Miss also likes that piece of jade very much. She said she wants to make a whole set of jewelry from it. The Young Master promised her that."
"Send it to the Xia family." Rong Wenxuan said after a moment of silence.
