Chapter 2612: Let Us Choose a Suitable Day

Why would Shen Yichen, who usually remained indifferent to everything, speak up for Lu Junning? Could it be that he coveted the military power held by Lu Junning’s grandfather and wanted to use it as leverage for rebellion?

Shen Yichen was actually going after the woman he had set his sights on!

As these thoughts filled his mind, hostility towards Shen Yichen grew stronger within him.

Lu Junning seemed to dislike Shen Yichen; she ignored him and turned around with a dark expression on her face, intending to leave Tiantai Temple.

However, Shen Yichen continued looking at Lu Junning and said confidently. “Second Miss Lu, let us choose a suitable day for the marriage proposal at the Lu residence.”

Upon hearing the words ‘marriage proposal,’ Lu Junning stumbled and almost tripped over her skirt.

“Shen Yichen! If you dare mention the words ‘marriage proposal’ again, I won’t hold back,” Lu Junning retorted angrily, her demeanor resembling an angry cat with its fur standing on end.

Ning Shu: …

Huh? Wasn’t Lu Junning supposed to be unparalleled in her cool manner? Why did she suddenly become so tsundere?

Could it be that something scandalous happened between these two?

“Marriage proposal,” repeated Shen Yichen firmly with a serious expression on his face. “Marriage proposal, marriage proposal.”

The people around them were left stunned by how abruptly the topic switched to marriage proposals. Prince Chen had taken an interest in Second Miss Lu from the Lu family, but Miss Lu hadn’t even reached adulthood yet, right?

Third Prince Shen Hao looked as if he was constipated. He was extremely frustrated, especially since he couldn’t do anything. This Prince Chen was indeed trying to steal away the woman he was interested in.

“You! I won’t marry you, Your Highness. I am not a suitable match for you,” Lu Junning coldly rejected him, causing the women around him and other young ladies to become even more envious and resentful.

The fact that she refused such a marriage proposal from someone like Third Prince Shen Hao came as a shock to everyone present.

Mistress Yun, in particular, looked as if she had been struck by lightning.

Her daughter’s innocence had been ruined, and could only get married to a minor marquis. However, Lu Junning had actually caught the attention of a prince, and it was even one with significant power.

How could she possibly accept this? In Mistress Yun’s eyes, her own daughter was far superior to Lu Junning. She discreetly pushed her daughter out to nearly fall in front of Shen Yichen.

“Not a worthy match?” Shen Yichen swept his gaze over everyone present. “If I say you are a worthy match, then you are a worthy match. Wait for me at home for when I come to propose.”

“Up to you. Anyway, I won’t marry you,” Lu Junning retorted before turning around and leaving.

Ning Shu watched the scene unfold in disbelief.

What the frick?

Her efforts actually ended up pus.h.i.+ng these two closer together?

Unable to bear the humiliation any longer, Mistress Yun left Tiantai Temple with her ego bruised.

As they were leaving though, Master Liao Ran blacklisted everyone from the Lu residence.

He put it politely by stating that people from the Lu family had defiled Buddhist teachings and were no longer allowed to wors.h.i.+p there anymore

This was an incredibly direct action. Tiantai Temple, being a royal temple, had explicitly prohibited the Lu family from entering. The Lu family would likely become a laughingstock for quite some time.

Mistress Yun felt a deep sense of fear. If the master were to find out about this matter, he would surely blame her and might even strip her of her position as the residence manager.

Sitting in the sedan chair on their way back to the Lu residence, Mistress Yun couldn’t help but rub her forehead. So many things had gone wrong on this trip; every turn seemed to bring more misfortune.

She felt that Tiantai Temple simply brought bad luck and vowed that she wouldn’t return even if they backed her in the future.

That so-called Master Liao Ran, that despicable monk, had helped Lu Junning forge false evidence!

The sedan chair continued to sway as it proceeded back to the Lu residence. They had headed off to Tiantai Temple so grandly, but on their return trip, the mood was very low.

Back at the Lu residence, Lu Mingxuan returned home and locked herself in her room. She felt miserable both physically and emotionally. Not only had she lost her innocence, she still had to suffer this b.u.t.t pain! On top of that, a prince had proposed marriage to Lu Junning while she herself had no choice but to marry just a minor marquis. These circ.u.mstances left Lu Mingxuan feeling envious, jealous, resentful, and filled with deep hatred.
