Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion - Chapter 131
Chapter 131: You Do Not Agree?
“I forgot. I just thought about it now. Am I not telling you now?” She pushed away from his embrace.
“We should really head back,” she said through gritted teeth.
Only then did Mo Jiangye let her go and lead her back to the hall.
When they arrived, most of the guests were already there. Lin Jingxuan, who had hoped to see the two of them falling out, felt his face darken when he saw them walk in hand in hand.
By the time everyone had given congratulatory gifts and speeches, it was already 9.30 pm and Old Master Lin’s gratuitous speech had ended.
After Old Master Lin’s gratuitous speech, he walked over to Mo Jiangye, his eyes trained on Ye Erruo. Mo Jiangye couldn’t stand it as he watched him.
“Xiao Ye…”
“Mm?” he asked with furrowed eyebrows.
Old Master Lin asked carefully, “Is this the lady who caught your eye? She is really pretty.”
The butler behind him stayed quiet.
He recalled the Old Master calling her ugly when she had been Young Master Lin’s girlfriend.
Mo Jiangye, who looked impatient, ignored him.
“Grandfather is asking you a question.” Ye Erruo secretly nudged him with her arm.
“What do you want to say?” he asked with a cold expression.
Old Master Lin was stunned. He bit his lips as a glint of hurt flashed across his eyes. He still refused to say more than a sentence or a word to him.
“How can you speak to your grandfather like that?” Ye Erruo nudged him again.
His grandfather liked him the most out of the whole family. He treated Mo Jiangye better than Lin Jingxuan, and everyone in the Lin Family knew about this. She did not understand why Mo Jiangye was so cold to his grandfather. The old man was often away and rarely came back. In the past, the person he’d wanted to see the most whenever he returned had been Mo Jiangye. He would always get the maids to invite him over, yet the young man would always reject his invitations. This was also the first time she met the elderly man!
Mo Jiangye calmed himself down and asked again, “What do you want to say?”
His tone was obviously much nicer.
Old Master Lin had originally had many things he wanted to ask. However, upon seeing him like that, he did not know where to begin.
“Butler.”
The butler behind him held out a small box in his hands. “Lady, this is a gift from the Old Master for meeting you for the first time.”
“Call her Young Madam,” Mo Jiangye said unhappily.
Old Master Lin was astonished. “Xiao Ye! You’re… You’re married?”
“Can’t I be?” he retorted.
Old Master Lin was speechless!
“This… This is Old Master’s gift for meeting the Young Madam for the first time.”
“She doesn’t need it,” Mo Jiangye answered on her behalf.
“…”
Ye Erruo reached out and accepted the box from the butler. “Thank you, Grandfather.”
Old Master Lin’s eyes shimmered when he saw her accepting his gift.
In the box was a pair of top-notch Hetian jade bracelets. The glimmer in Mo Jiangye’s eyes dimmed when he saw the pair of bracelets.
He moved his lips and asked, “Do you like jade bracelets?”
“Grandfather gave them to me. Of course, I like them.”
Old Master Lin smiled. “Young lady, you have already married Xiao Ye?”
“Yes, we are already married.”
Old Master Lin’s expression was full of hurt. Mo Jiangye had not invited him to the wedding and had left him out of the blue…
Ye Erruo hurriedly explained, “We only got our marriage certificate. We have yet to arrange a wedding ceremony. When we plan it, we will definitely invite you, Grandfather.”
“Good, good.” A smile blossomed on Old Master Lin’s face.
“Did I agree to this?” Mo Jiangye asked coldly.
Ye Erruo lifted her eyes and glanced at him as if she was asking, “Do you not agree?”
Mo Jiangye shifted his gaze away and said faintly, “It’s up to you.”
Upon hearing Mo Jiangye’s words, Old Master Lin felt even happier. He had not ever expected that this woman would hold Xiao Ye in her grasp…
Seizing the opportunity of Ye Erruo’s presence, the butler took out the Lin Family’s seal of power. Lin Teng, the entire Lin Family’s residence, all of the Lin Family’s assets, and everything else would belong to the person who owned this seal.
“Young Master Mo, Old Master would like to give this to you…”
“I don’t need it.” Mo Jiangye’s expression darkened the moment he saw the box containing the seal.
“Grandpa, what are you doing?” Distraught, Lin Jingxuan ran over to the old man.
