“I said it wrongly.” Wang Shichu quickly shut up.

Chu Heng’s expression was slightly cold. “You don’t have to cover up your previous thoughts. I understand it in my heart. I would like to ask Landlord Wang, do you want to be on good terms with me or to be my enemy?”

“I just want to be on good terms.” Wang Shichu jumped in fright and frowned, looking regretful.

“Where is the betrothal card that you took when you wanted to marry Ling ‘er?” Ye Muyu suddenly asked.

Wang Shichu subconsciously looked at her.

Only then did he notice that Chu Heng was actually holding her hand. In other words, the relationship between the couple was very good.

Wang Shichu closed his eyes. “This is a misunderstanding. I’ll get someone to get the betrothal card.”

With that, he really got up and ordered the servants to do this.

Ye Muyu waited silently. If she could get the betrothal card back, it would save her some trouble. As for whether Wang Shichu had hidden the Young Master of the Wang family in this house, she would know when Han Zhuang came back.

“Since Master Wang knows that Ling’er is unwilling, why did you force her to marry you? This seems to be contradictory to what you said. You said that you don’t want to be enemies with my husband.” Ye Muyu pretended to be arrogant as if she was going to fight to the end.

Wang Shichu was a little puzzled. This was different from the personality of the Chu family’s wife that he had mentioned. However, when he remembered that the other party had only investigated Chu Heng and did not say much about the other party’s wife, he did not think too much about it.

However, it was obvious that Chu Heng valued his wife very much, so he had no choice but to answer this question.

Wang Shichu instantly blushed and said, “Madam, you’ve misunderstood. Speaking of which, this old man was muddle-headed. I met a fortune-teller who said that there was a calamity in my life and that I needed to marry a wife to suppress it. Coincidentally, Miss Ling’er was suitable, so I had the idea.”

“This old man knows that this matter is unfair to Miss Ling’er, so I gave the Xiang family a lot of betrothal gifts. In the future, I will also treat Miss Ling’er well. After all, there is no one in the family now. If Miss Ling ‘er marries in, she will naturally not have to worry about food and clothing.”

“If that’s the case, now that the marriage hasn’t happened, the calamity in Landlord Wang’s life can’t be stopped. If something happens, it’ll be my fault?”

“No, no, no. It’s already solved. It’s actually not Miss Ling ‘er who is suitable. Old Madam Huo whom Scholar Chu arranged, is also suitable.” Wang Shichu basically gritted his teeth and said this. How could he not understand that Chu Heng clearly wanted him to express his attitude?

The other party had a lot of family property. The money he gave was probably not enough for the other party. If he mentioned marriage again, it meant that he had to pay the price.

“Congratulations, Landlord Wang.” Chu Heng took a sip of tea.

Wang Shichu frowned. No matter how unwilling he was, he did not dare to say anything.

He had wanted to contend with Chu Heng, but now, that matter had not been completed, and he had coincidentally bumped into Xiang Ling’er. Since Xiang Ling’er could not enter his house, he naturally had nothing to restrain Chu Heng.

It was not that he had not thought of attacking again.

However, the other party was already prepared. If he attacked again, it would be a situation where he would not rest until one of them was dead.

He was living a good life, so why did he have to do this?

As for Old Madam Huo, she was just a woman. When the time came, he would just send her away. How could he not solve it?

Of course, he would definitely suffer this loss.

“Bang! Bang!” At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Wang Shichu got up and walked to the door. It was the betrothal card.

He immediately opened the door and let the servant in to return the card in front of Chu Heng.

Ye Muyu opened it and checked it personally. After confirming that it was Xiang Ling’er’s, she accepted it.
