Chapter 1096: Marriage
What was going on?
Lin Shiyu felt a rush of blood to her head. He had actually done such a thing with her nursing underwear.
Lewd!
Pervert!
His handsome and refined face, coupled with his outfit of white shirt and black trousers surfaced in her mind. He looked every inch a polished and sophisticated aristocrat and he did not even glance at her when he left just now.
Liar!
Big fat liar!
His refined appearance was merely a facade. He had actually committed such a lewd act in her home!
Lin Shiyu had already blacklisted this man in her heart.
...
The next day.
Tang Mo’er and Lin Shiyu met each other. They had received an invitation from Yi Tian Shi to film their publicity video.
Yi Tian Shi was a widely acclaimed international charity organization and sponsored many poor and disabled children every year. Every year, Yi Tian Shi would extend invitations to the most popular artistes to film their publicity video and it was an honor to be invited. It was also a form of social responsibility to be fulfilled.
Tang Mo’er was invited to be the leading female character in the MV, while Lin Shiyu was invited to sing the theme song.
Both of them walked along the hall to take the elevator. “Mo’er, how are things between you and Mr Gu recently?”
Upon being posed this question, Tang Mo’er furrowed her pretty brows. “Nothing much. He hasn’t been home these few nights.”
“Really?” Lin Shiyu expressed her shock. “This doesn’t seem characteristic of Mr Gu. What has he been busy with recently?”
“I’m not sure either. Shiyu, do you think the so-called seven-year itch in marriages is real?” Tang Mo’er asked tentatively.
Many lovers started off with being sweet with each other, but as the years went by, especially when they reached the seventh year of their relationship, many of them would break up.
Lin Shiyu glanced at Tang Mo’er. “Mo’er, don’t worry so much. You and Mr Gu haven’t reached the seventh year yet.”
Oh, that’s right, they hadn’t reached the seventh year yet...
Tang Mo’er curved her red lips slightly to conceal the hurt and loneliness in her eyes. Actually she was very envious of Shiyu and Young Master Fu for being able to sustain their relationship for so many years.
“Little Momo.” At this moment, a familiar voice rang out.
Tang Mo’er stopped in her tracks and looked back to see someone she had not seen for a very long. Feng Lihen.
“Master Feng, why are you here?”
“Little Mo’er, I’ve received Yi Foundation’s invitation to be the male lead in this MV. Are you pleasantly surprised?” With that, Feng Lihen stretched his hand out to caress Tang Mo’er’s face.
Tang Mo’er promptly evaded his touch. This Master Feng was still as lascivious and unruly as ever.
“Master Feng, please restrain yourself. Do not flirt with a married woman!” Tang Mo’er chided him as she reminded him about her status.
With a wicked smile, Feng Lihen leaned forward and whispered into Tang Mo’er’s ear, “I’ve heard news that your husband, Gu Mohan, has been very close to a woman lately. This woman is very entrancing and beautiful and all men are captivated by her when they see her.”
Tang Mo’er’s heart thumped. All these years, Gu Mohan had maintained a clean private life and he had never sought other women before.
It was true that he had not been home these few days. Was he really with this captivating woman?
Tang Mo’er looked up at Feng Lihen and smiled flippantly. “Master Feng, do you think it’s wise to create discord between me and my husband? I have faith in my husband and not you.”
“...”
“The elevator is here. Shiyu, let’s go in.” Tang Mo’er held Lin Shiyu’s arm and left.
...
“Young Master, the battle for sovereignty is already ongoing. The West Duke, Lu Yeming, is young and charming and he has reached marriageable age at 23 years old. The West Palace has begun to select a wife for the West Duke. The Princes of the South and East have daughters who are at a suitable age for marrying, and if the West Duke selects and marries one of them, then their first target will surely be our North Palace.”
“Old Master has issued an ultimatum. You’ll have to bring Miss Tang back for marriage. It’s only when the West and North Palaces have a union through marriage that we can...” Feng Lihen’s trusted right-hand man, Wu Shu, said in a hushed voice.
Feng Lihen raised his hand to stop Wu Shu from continuing.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Mo’er’s retreating back. Tang Mo’er’s biological brother, Tang Chenyi, had changed his name to Lu Yeming after the demise of his father, Lu Jinwen, and mother, Lin Xuanji.
The West Duke, Lu Yeming, had expanded his territory at an impressive pace. He was almost 23 years old and the refined youth of the past had become a competent ruler. He was going to achieve his most powerful weapon, and that was —- union through marriage.
Country A still practised polygamy. The West Duke was young and charming and he had mesmerized many girls. He just needed to select a wife, and he would be almighty.
Feng Lihen curved his lips. Nobody could fathom what he was truly thinking about. “Don’t worry, I have my own plans.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
...
Tang Mo’er and Lin Shiyu entered the elevator together. There were other artistes inside and someone familiar caught Tang Mo’er’s eyes. It was Leng Yan.
Leng Yan was an artiste of good reputation in the entertainment industry. Not only did she belong to a prestigious family, she was also highly educated and her acting skills were excellent. She had always presented herself to be a chaste and modest lady, earning her the admiration of many fans.
“Mo’er, do you know her?” Lin Shiyu said in a soft voice.
“I’ve attended some events with her before, but we’re not very close. I’ve heard that she is specially invited for this MV and her father is one of the shareholders for the Yi Foundation,” Tang Mo’er shared with Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu nodded.
“Have you all seen the CEO of Yi Foundation?” At this moment, one of the artistes piped up.
Everyone got excited at the mention of this topic. “Yi Foundation was established 15 years ago, and it has donated hundreds of billions of dollars these 15 years, but the identity of its big boss is still a mystery. I’m not sure if we will have the good fortune to meet this big boss.”
“What are you thinking of? I think this big boss must be in his forties or fifties now. Do you really think that this big boss is a rich, young and handsome man? You’ve watched too many idol drama series!”
The young artistes giggled in amusement.
Ding! The elevator door opened.
Everyone walked out of the elevator. Just now, a group of bodyguards dressed in black walked over and cordoned the area. “Apologies ladies, please move backwards. Our boss is coming out now.”
My God. Speak of the devil. The mysterious big boss of Yi Foundation was going to appear.
They were so lucky!
Everyone was overcome with emotion. Even Tang Mo’er and Lin Shiyu looked up in curiosity to see who exactly this benevolent man was.
The door of the VIP meeting room was pulled open and a group of staff with blue lanyards around their necks split into two groups and waited respectfully for someone. Under everyone’s bated breaths and watchful eyes, a tall and handsome figure appeared.
