Feng Siniang stood in front of Tang Zheng, blocking his gaze that was as sharp as a sword. Qin Lao was slightly startled and anger appeared between his brows.
Song Yu smiled lightly and asked: "Tang Zheng, are you friends with Dingdang?"
"He is my fiancé." Ye Dingdang raised her head as if to declare her sovereignty.
Tang Zheng smiled bitterly to himself. Ye Dingdang had entered the role too quickly. He was definitely going to be the shield, but he didn't dislike it. He had a good relationship with the Yeh family. Moreover, he didn't have a good impression of this kind of matchmaking. He didn't mind helping Ye Dingdang this once.
However, he admired Song Yu's reaction. Even a blind person could see that he had a good relationship with Ye Dingdang, but Song Yu asked if they were friends.
Ye Dingdang was also domineering. She directly lied and said that Tang Zheng was her fiancé.
In an instant, the hall was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. The atmosphere became subtle. Even Ye Tianlei opened his eyes wide in shock.
Obviously, he didn't expect Ye Dingdang to be so fierce. He looked at his wife again and saw a faint smile on her face. He suddenly understood.
All of this must be his wife's idea. His wife never acted according to common sense. Only she would dare to do such a shocking thing to go against the will of the old man.
"This is going to be troublesome!" Ye Tianlei was stuck in a dilemma.
"Fiancé?" Song Yu looked at Tang Zheng and Ye Dingdang with a smile that wasn't a smile. Ye Dingdang hugged Tang Zheng's arm even tighter. It was as if she was afraid that Song Yu would notice something.
Tang Zheng felt the softness on his arm and couldn't help but glance at her chest. In order to complete the scene, she didn't expect that the two of them would have such intimate physical contact.
"Tang Zheng, you're so lucky to have such a beautiful fiancee!" Song Yu's voice was a little ethereal, so no one could tell what he was feeling.
Tang Zheng knew that he couldn't back down now. Since the fake show had already started, he had to act according to the script. Moreover, he had to act more realistically.
Therefore, Tang Zheng nodded politely and said, "Thank you! My luck has always been good. "
"How dare you!" Suddenly, Qin Lao couldn't hold it in any longer and shouted loudly. His voice was like a great bell, and the entire hall was filled with this voice. It was like the rumbling of thunder, causing people to feel dizzy.
Ye Tianlei's expression changed slightly. "Qin Lao."
Qin Lao coldly snorted. His gaze was like a sword as he looked at Tang Zheng. However, his gaze was blocked by Feng Siniang.
Song Yu was separated by Feng Siniang so she couldn't clearly see Tang Zheng's reaction. However, an ordinary person would definitely be shaken by this Lion's Roar. In serious cases, they might even suffer internal injuries.
Tang Zheng naturally wasn't injured. Firstly, Feng Siniang had neutralized most of the Lion's Roar's power. Secondly, he had the Ancient Clear Heaven Scroll to protect his body.
"Tang Zheng, we finally meet again. Why don't we have a good chat? I believe we will have a lot to talk about." Song Yu continued.
"We're tired. We'll go back to our rooms first." How could Ye Dingdang allow them to be alone? What if Tang Zheng exposed themselves? So, without any explanation, she pulled Tang Zheng into her room.
Ye Tianlei couldn't help but secretly shake his head. How did things become like this? He was the only one who could clean up this mess. He forced out a smile and said, "Nephew, Dingdang is too headstrong. Please don't take offense."
Song Yu smiled and shook her head. "Dingdang is still young. It's normal for her to be headstrong. Who doesn't have headstrong moments? Uncle, what do you think?"
When Ye Tianlei heard this, he didn't know what to say.
"Ye Tianlei, what is going on?" Qin Lao couldn't help but ask.
"This …" Before Ye Tianlei could think of an explanation, Song Yu spoke first. "Uncle, we have just arrived. Can we stay in uncle's house for a few days?"
"This … of course you can." Ye Tianlei hesitated for a moment before agreeing. This was a reasonable request. If he didn't agree, then he would be too unreasonable.
Feng Siniang's gaze changed slightly. She looked at Song Yu thoughtfully. Ye Tianlei ordered people to bring Song Yu and Qin Lao away to rest.
"Feng Siniang, you're too daring. Look at what you've done this time. How are you going to clean up this mess?" Ye Tianlei said angrily.
"I've always been daring. Didn't you know that when you chased me that year? Moreover, I don't think there's anything wrong with this. This is a natural development. Naturally, there will be an outcome. Why would I need to spend energy thinking about how to clean up this mess? "Feng Siniang said without a care.
Ye Tianlei shook his head and smiled bitterly. "How could it be as simple as you think? How are we going to get past the old man? What about the Song family's face? "
"What does the Song family's face have to do with me? I'm not part of the Song family. As for the old man, he didn't care about us before, but now he's using my daughter's happiness as a bargaining chip in exchange for the family's benefits …"
"Don't say anymore." Ye Tianlei's face sank. "The old man is the head of the Yeh family after all. He's my father. Naturally, he has a lot of things to consider."
"Yes, he does have a lot of things to consider. When you were forced to leave Jing City, did he consider that he was your father? You know how helpless we were back then. Moreover, he didn't even look at Dingdang. Now he's going to marry her to someone else. Has he considered our feelings? Has he considered Dingdang's feelings?" Feng Siniang argued.
Ye Tianlei was speechless. He let out a long sigh and said, "He doesn't have much time left, so he has no choice but to make these arrangements."
"… What, he doesn't have much time left? Isn't he about to break through to the Martial Scholar realm?" Feng Siniang turned pale with fright.
Ye Tianlei shook his head and said, "His last attempt to break through to the Martial Scholar realm failed and he almost went crazy. That's why he doesn't have much time left."
"Ai, of all the major families in Jing City, only the Yeh family doesn't have a Martial Scholar expert. If the old man isn't here, then the Yeh family …" Feng Siniang didn't continue, but her meaning was clear.
Ye Tianlei nodded and said, "That's right. That's why the old man chose to marry the Song family, who has always had a good relationship with him."
"The Yeh family doesn't only have Dingdang as a girl. Isn't there also your elder brother's daughter?"
"You also know that her reputation in Jing City has always been bad. How could the old man let her marry the Song family? Wouldn't that be the opposite of what he wanted? But I heard that the girl was very willing. She even made a big fuss several times because of this matter, but the old man never agreed. "
"In any case, I won't agree to this matter. No matter who it is, I won't give face to. My daughter's happiness is in her own hands." Feng Siniang still refused to budge an inch.
"Things have already become like this. How could I not know what you're thinking? But I don't know how to explain it to the old man."
"Back then, because you were injured and your meridians were blocked, you were judged to be unable to reach the Xiantian realm. Then, you were forced to leave Jing City. A while ago, we thought that since you had already broken through to the Xiantian realm, you could return to Jing City. After all, this was your long-cherished wish. But today, with this matter, I have completely lost interest in returning to Jing City. I feel that Ordinary Balance is also not bad. In the future, you can peacefully develop in Ordinary Balance."
Ye Tianlei was silent and said, "Let's first get through this hurdle. In fact, all of this is because the old man doesn't have much time left. If the old man can persist for a few more years, then all of this will be easily resolved."
"Defying the heavens and changing one's fate. I've heard of this kind of thing, but where can I find someone with this kind of divine ability?" Feng Siniang said with emotion.
… …
Song Yu stood up, quietly looking out the window at the tranquil beauty of the Yeh family manor under the setting sun. Qin Lao stood behind him and asked puzzledly, "Young Master, why did you stop me from questioning Ye Tianlei just now?"
Song Yu didn't even turn his head and said, "Qin Lao, some things will become passive if they are exposed, do you understand?"
"What do you mean? This old man doesn't understand."
"Haha, when Dingdang introduced Tang Zheng as her fiancé, didn't you see Uncle Ye's expression?"
"What expression did he have?"
"Shocked!"
Qin Lao's heart trembled, and he said, "Young Master, you're saying that he also doesn't know about this matter, so … this is all fake."
"Most likely. So if we were to insist on pursuing this matter, it would force the other party to confirm this fake marriage and we would become passive. Right now, let's not talk about this matter and stay with the Yeh family for a few days. They will naturally reveal some clues and everything will fall apart. "
"Young Master is still the most thoughtful, this old man was stupid." Qin Lao said with admiration.
Song Yu faintly smiled, "Haha, actually many things will be completely different if you take a step forward. Moreover, Tang Zheng is a child of an ordinary family, how could he be related to the Yeh family by marriage? But my eyes were not wrong, he is indeed not simple. Perhaps we have seen too much of him on the surface, he must have many things that we don't know about. "
"Young Master, do you still need me to investigate him?"
Song Yu waved his hand and said, "No need, since he doesn't want others to know, then he naturally has the corresponding methods. Continuing to investigate will only lead to more false impressions. I trust my own eyes more." As he said this, he pointed to his own eyes, bursting with strong confidence.
… …
In Ye Dingdang's boudoir, Tang Zheng couldn't help but look around. Her room was very neat and tidy, without a speck of dust. Presumably, there was someone who tidied and cleaned it every day.
The style of the room was more robust than a normal girl's room, especially the words hanging at the head of the bed. It was a large framed "Martial" character, showing her infatuation with martial arts.
"You like martial arts that much?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Nonsense, of course I like it, my dream is to become a Martial Scholar." Ye Dingdang's eyes lit up, as if she could see herself becoming a Martial Scholar.
"Then you still have a long way to go."
"I believe that I can definitely do it." She said confidently.
"Dingdang, this time you may not succeed in using me as a shield. That Song Yu is very smart, we may not be able to deceive him. Moreover, he is a very handsome guy, at least much more handsome than me. Have you not considered it?"
"Consider your ass, no matter how handsome he is, I will not consider it. I hate it the most when other people tell me what to do with my life. I have to make my own decisions, not to mention when it comes to marriage, I will not listen to anyone."
