Chapter 167: Chapter 167 It’s nothing important, just stealing her fiancé
Jiang Leyi followed Chu Muxi’s gaze and soon saw two people walking in side by side.
Both were dressed entirely in designer brands, their eye-catching attire drawing attention as soon as they appeared at the school.
When Jiang Leyi saw Song Kexia, her expression turned somewhat ugly.
She really couldn’t bring herself to like her cousin, who held herself in such high regard and carried an especially proud demeanor.
Beside her, the short-haired, beautiful, and gentle girl was Yan Yidan, the prodigy who had been sent to the mountains to learn from childhood and possessed many rare skills. Now that she had turned twenty, the Yan Family had called her down from the mountain to engage in a marriage alliance with a wealthy family.
Worried that Jiang Leyi might not recognize her, Chu Muxi specially introduced her, “Lady Yan is very impressive—skilled in martial arts, medicine, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and all six arts of poetry and books. She is an important cultivation target for the Yan Family and is also the daughter-in-law Mrs. Lu fancies. Your sister’s position might be in jeopardy.”
The Lu Family was a prestigious clan in Beijing, noted not only for their vast industry but also their accumulated connections. Young Master Lu had been decisive and fierce, seizing the position of Family Head among his many brothers.
However, it traced back to him where ironically he had few male descendants, just one son and one grandson. Everyone coveted the Lu Family’s immense wealth, and the powerful families lining up to marry into Lu Qingyan’s family were eager for the marriage contract with the Jiang Family to fall through so they could take their place.
Jiang Leyi glared at her, the first time she had noticed Chu Muxi’s mockery almost spilling out of her eyes, quickly captured though it was fleeting.
“Even if Mrs. Lu favors her, as long as the betrothal hasn’t been called off, it can only be my sister,” Jiang Leyi said indifferently.
What do you think?
