Chapter 4416: 4416 Meng Yu Zheng
4416 Meng Yu Zheng
Ye Qiang Wei was truly confused by Wang Luo Yu's sudden change in attitude.
Wang Luo Yu smiled and said, "Sister Qiang Wei, I was truly reluctant to meet Brother Li earlier. I was even lamenting my sad life. However, after meeting him and chatting with him, I think... I think I've met my soulmate. It sounds hard to believe, but I like him and hope to be with him after meeting him..."
Ye Qiang Wei frowned as she looked at the expression on Wang Luo Yu's face. Although the expression seemed to show that Wang Luo Yu was in love, she could not help but feel like something was amiss. As such, she even probed Wang Luo Yu with her Divine Consciousness to confirm that the person in front of her was truly Wang Luo Yu.
After that, Ye Qiang Wei called out, "Grandma."
The old woman brought out a Formation Compass and quickly set up a few Formations around the courtyard. Following that, she said, "Don't worry, miss. Even the two supreme elders of the clan won't be able to listen in on our conversations."
With that, Ye Qiang Wei looked at Wang Luo Yu with a serious expression. A hint of worry and anger and worry could be seen in her eyes as she said, "Sister Luo Yu, did they force you? You must be afraid of implicating me and my father in this matter, right? Don't worry. No one can listen in on our conversation now so you don't have to pretend and lie to me."
Wang Luo Yu stepped forward and held Ye Qiang Wei's hand as she said with a sincere smile on her face, "Sister Qiang Wei, I'm telling the truth. I really like Brother Li. Although our meeting was brief, I can tell that he's a trustworthy man. At the very least, he's much better than those disciples from the other clans. Sister Qiang Wei, you'll know what I mean after you meet Brother Li. He's really different from those unreliable disciples..."
Ye Qiang Wei began to doubt herself after listening to these words.
Wang Luo Yu smiled and continued to say, "Sister Qiang Wei, you want me to be happy, don't you?"
"Of course," Ye Qiang Wei nodded and said solemnly, "I'll be happy if you're able to marry someone you genuinely like. However, if you're doing this against your will, I'll do all I can to help you no matter how difficult the situation is..."
Wang Luo Yu knew that Ye Qiang Wei was sincere with her words. As such, she felt moved and guilty at the same time. Ye Qiang Wei was like family to her, and she was certain if she told Ye Qiang Wei the truth, Ye Qiang Wei would not betray her. However, she had promised Duan Ling Tian that she would not tell another soul about this matter. She might trust Ye Qiang Wei, but Duan Ling Tian had no reason to trust Ye Qiang Wei. Finally, she said smilingly, "Sister Qiang Wei, don't worry. Our wedding will be held in a month. You have to help me with my makeup..."
Ye Qiang Wei's expression softened immediately as she said, "I'll definitely help you with your wedding outfit and makeup... I'm really curious now about the man who managed to catch your attention..."
"Sister Qiang Wei, I'll ask if it's convenient for him to meet you if you're really curious," Wang Luo Yu replied with a smile.
In fact, Wang Luo Yu's words were just perfunctory. She did not want to trouble Duan Ling Tian any further after all the trouble he had gone to just to fulfill Wang Yi Yuan's final wish and bring her away from the Wang clan. After all, she was not an ungrateful person.
...
Previously, when Wang Kui left the Wang clan's spatial artifact, he had already heard about what happened in Dancing Sun City and Green Billow City. However, he was unaware of Duan Ling Tian's connection to the incident in one of the cities. He had also forgotten that the Meng clan in Green Billow City had sent someone to the Wang clan to ask for Wang Luo Yu's hand in marriage as well. The Meng clan was a second-rank clan in Green Billow City like the Wang clan in Blue Dawn City, but the Wang clan was once a first-rank clan with a supreme powerhouse, after all. As such, the Wang clan had a sense of superiority over the Meng clan. When the Meng clan came to propose marriage, Wang Kui only sent an elder to meet the matchmaker from the Meng clan. He would only personally meet the nobles or those from a stronger force. In his opinion, Meng Yu Zheng, the direct descendant of the Meng clan, was not worthy of his attention.
...
The Meng clan in Green Billow City.
The Meng clan's ancestor who became a supreme powerhouse finally returned half a month later.
The old man dressed in a long and loose green robe was received by a group of supreme powerhouses when he appeared in the sky above Green Billow City.
"Congratulations, Brother Meng."
"Brother Meng, congratulations on becoming a supreme powerhouse!"
"Brother Meng, as the first member of the Meng clan to become a supreme powerhouse, you'll be revered by the future descendants of the Meng clan!"
The supreme powerhouses were enthusiastic with their greetings. After all, although the old man had just become a supreme powerhouse recently, his strength was not inferior to theirs. How could they ignore him?
"Thank you, everyone," the old man replied, delighted by the warm reception. A hint of excitement could be seen in his eyes at this moment. In the past, the difference between his strength and the strength of the supreme powerhouses was like that of heaven and earth even if he was very close to becoming a supreme powerhouse. As such, he had to lower himself whenever he met them. However, now that he was a supreme powerhouse as well, his status was the same as theirs. Due to his achievements, the Meng clan would also become a first-rank clan in Green Billow City.
"Brother Meng, now that you've become a supreme powerhouse, it's only natural for the Meng clan to become a first-rank clan in our Green Billow City..."
"Brother Meng, we've already distributed some of our properties to the Meng clan. We can negotiate again if it's not enough..."
...
While the ancestor of the Meng clan was chatting with the supreme powerhouses, the members of the Meng clan eagerly awaited his return.
"There's a commotion outside. The old ancestor must have returned!"
"There's a group of people there... They must be the supreme powerhouses from the major clans!"
"They must have come to receive our ancestor! Let's wait here until the old ancestor returns! It's inappropriate for us to go there after all..."
At the same time, in another part of the Meng clan's estate.
Meng Yu Zheng wore a sinister expression on his face as he thought to himself, "The Wang clan from Blue Dawn City didn't only reject my marriage proposal, but they even invited us to attend Wang Luo Yu's wedding. How preposterous! I'll speak to the old ancestor and make them regret their decision! Wang Luo Yu, it doesn't matter if the Wang clan has agreed to your marriage; you're mine! Even if the Wang clan has connections with other supreme powerhouses, do you think they'll really stand up for you? What a joke!"
