She had been wrong. She had been totally wrong.
She had thought that Duke North Mansion was also a noble family with some achievements. The old Duke North passed away ages ago and there were many things for her to deal with at the mansion. So she hoped that Chenyi would marry someone who could help him. When she met Gu Chaoyan for the first time, she did not know Gu Chaoyan's background, thus staying very defensive against her. She even said some hurtful and intimidating words to her.
As a result, Gu Chaoyan did not want to have anything to do with Duke North Mansion, and her son Chenyi had no chance with her any more.
She thought that Chenyi was too young to understand who he should marry and who he should not. She was worried that her son would be set up, but…
The fact was that she was too old to see through people.
Chenyi was the person who knew what the girl was like.
The girl he fell for was the Phoenix Girl that everyone was kneeling down for.
Who would have expected this to happen?
At least she had not. That was why Chenyi would have to kneel down for her like everyone else.
If she had not stepped forward to ruin the situation, maybe Chenyi would have been the person standing next to the Phoenix Girl, at the highest spot of Ronghua Palace, receiving everyone else's worship and respect.
It was her fault. Totally her fault! She should be blamed.
"Chenyi, sorry for what I did to you!" She said, tearfully, looking regretful!
This was truly coming out of her heart.
Zheng Chenyi looked coldly at her, glaring. "You only know this now? So what? It is too late. You ruined my life. I could have married the girl I liked, and became the man on the top. Everything is ruined now! I must have owed you so much in my last life for me to be your son now!" Zheng Chenyi said with gritted teeth. He sounded extremely resentful.
Madame Zheng was shocked. She lost focus in her eyes.
She seemed to have become totally soulless.
Zheng Chenyi did not even want to look at her any more, as if she would make him puke.
If not for the banquet's rule about bringing their families, he would not have taken her out of the mansion.
Disgusted, Zheng Chenyi got up and wanted to catch up with Gu Chaoyan. He wanted to watch her and see if they could exchange a few words.
He wondered who the man behind her was. He had never met him before, and he seemed like an unkind man.
***
Outside of Ronghua Palace…
Gu Chaoyan left directly.
Ouyang Mingjing was stopped.
"Mr. Head, can I have a few words with you?" Elder Qianji said, looking friendly.
"Oh yeah?" Ouyang Mingjing stopped, waiting for him to say something else.
Elder Qianji looked about.
That was not the right place to discuss things.
He thought for a while and said, "There is a pavilion not far from here. let's have a talk with people from the Cangyan Door over there, okay?"
Elder Qianji sounded very respectful. After all, he was worried that the Head of the Snow would not agree, but they from Piaomiao Pavilion had to lead the case, rather than those from the Cangyan Door.
Ouyang Mingjing nodded.
Elder Qianji let out a sigh of relief and led him to the pavilion.
Elder Qianji looked around and saw no one from the Saint Divine Land.
He felt slightly assured.
He sat down, asking curiously, "Why didn't you mention the Golden Rolls back at the court banquet?"
