Chapter 166: Satisfying Court (2)

Wen Yun’s expression darkened.

Then, Mo Yuanxiu had started to step into their relationship. He had pursued Lu Manman like mad in Wen City, but she had rejected him. Everyone thought that she did not care about Mo Yuanxiu at all. At that time, he had even thought so as well. Lu Manman would never fall for a notorious playboy.

However, the unexpected had happened.

Lu Manman had been quiet for so long and had not responded to the media. But now, for the first time ever, she actually agreed to Mo Yuanxiu’s proposal.

It had become the talk of the town.

It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him at that point in time. But he firmly believed that Lu Manman was only trying to take revenge on him. She was not really in love with Mo Yuanxiu, much less really marry him.

So he tried to win her heart with his facade.

Who would have known that she would reject him? Over and over again, she had rejected him more and more obviously. In fact, she had even shown up at his place arrogantly. Facing his grandfather, whom he did not even dare to offend, she had left with her head held high.

He was so angry he wanted to kill her.

Of course, this was not the first time he plotted to kill her.

The first time was when he forced her to have sex, and the media had caught wind of it.

He had pulled a lot of strings and knew that he would not be able to cover whatever he had done back then and could not suppress the news. Hence, he had resorted to extreme methods to kill Lu Manman.

If he killed her, the news about her death would overshadow his scandal. At the same time, she was already dead. Nobody knew if he had forced himself on her that night or if it had been consensual.

He had no idea if Lu Manman was just too lucky, or if someone had planned this on purpose. He had not expected her to be at Mo Yuanxiu’s place that night. He had searched for her the whole night but had been unable to find her.

The assassination had failed.

The second time was when she left the Wen family’s main household.

He could not stand seeing her act so self-righteously. At that point, he wished she could just die.

No one had ever dared to act so self-righteously before him.

That car accident did not kill Lu Manman but almost exposed his true colors instead.

Then, his grandfather reminded him that even though the Wen family held a high position in the political circle, important figures from the capital had appeared time and time again in Wen City over the past few years. It was evident that they were wary of the Wen family, so they could not be too obvious about it. If someone found fault with them, the Wen family might end up in their hands.

He had advised him to calm down.

However, he could not control his anger anymore and wanted nothing more than to kill Lu Manman right now to vent his anger.

Fortunately, Old Master Lu had come forward to discuss a collaboration with the Wen family.

He had never seen an old man hurt his own son before. Although he found it ironic, he had to admit that this gave him an excuse to vent his anger. Of course, his main objective was to force Lu Manman to marry him. After they got married, he could torture her however he wanted to take revenge. He had even thought of all sorts of ways to torture her, but she kept pushing his limits.

She thought too highly of herself and ignored his threats time and time again.

But now, she had even climbed into Mo Yuanxiu’s bed!

Based on his understanding of her, she was an educated woman who would never be so bold. He had never thought that she would cohabit with a man before she got married.

He admitted that this was the first time he was starting to mind her body.

He minded that she had slept with another man.
