Chapter 1660: Chapter 1660: Mother-in-Law
Beiting Huang called to Lord Beiting Jing for help, but Lord Beiting Jing turned his face away as if he hadn’t seen. Beiting Huang couldn’t help but curse in her heart, this big brother, at the critical moment, was really unreliable.
“Little Ninth, this person… who is he?” Beiting Lang’s demeanor flickered when he saw the golden spider lilies on Yan Ye’s robe, even though he knew full well who it was, he purposely asked.
What a joke, he had just found his daughter, would he really marry her off just like that?
And Yan Ye, after paying his respects, seeing that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had made no indication, made himself at home, slightly bending his waist and said respectfully, “Father-in-law, I am Huang’er’s husband. My name is Yan Ye, a Yanmo Heavenly Tribesman.”
This was the Devil Emperor, the renowned legend?
Yue Mengying was so shocked her eyes almost popped out. This was an ancient character who had lived for ten thousand years. Was her husband really doing the right thing by giving others such a hard time? Just as Beiting Lang was about to speak, she quickly pulled on her husband’s sleeve, “So it is the Devil Emperor!”
“Mother-in-law, please, just call me Yan Ye,” said Yan Ye with a smile.
Beiting Huang appeared especially embarrassed; this guy, seemingly easy to talk to, was in fact extremely calculative. What on earth was he up to by ing here now?
Indeed, in the Land of Hidden Fog, a young man came over, looking at Yan Ye with particular hostility, and said to Yue Mengying, “Madam, if this is the young lady in question, I accept your earlier proposal. I am willing to take her as my wife.”
What?
Yan Ye’s expression darkened instantly, a tremendous pressure permeated, causing everyone’s heart to skip a beat, and Beiting Lang and Yue Mengying’s faces to change as well.
Beiting Huang couldn’t help but reach out and firmly squeeze Yan Ye’s palm, municating telepathically, “What are you doing? Can’t you listen to what my mother has to say before getting angry?”
“Hmph!” Yan Ye didn’t speak, just snorted coldly, indicating his extremely bad mood.
Yue Mengying had never encountered such a situation before; this young man was the seventeenth son of the Eastern Emperor. The Eastern Emperor had thirty-two concubines, and once when she had met Prince Seventeen’s mother, and found the child by her side, she thought of her own two children and said, “If my Jing’er and Little Ninth were here, they would be about the same age as Prince Seventeen!”
Upon hearing that Little Ninth was a girl, Prince Seventeen’s mother smiled and said, “That’s wonderful, when the time es, let’s betroth your Little Ninth to our Seventeen.”
Yue Mengying responded with a smile, “Sure, as long as the two children have no objections.”
She had never agreed to it!
At the time, she felt that, having been displaced, without even a home, when Prince Seventeen’s mother said that, all she could do was agree momentarily, and what she said wasn’t wrong either—if her daughter was willing, what right did she have to oppose?
Beiting Lang had no intention of making things difficult for Yan Ye; he just felt upset that as soon as he found his daughter, this young man came to snatch her away. He hadn’t realized that his wife had already betrothed their daughter to someone else. How could one woman be promised to two different men?
Stammering, Yue Mengying stepped to the side to avoid Prince Seventeen’s salute, “What I said at the time was, this matter still depends on Little Ninth, my daughter. If she agrees, I have no objections!”
All eyes turned to Beiting Huang, waiting for her opinion. Beiting Huang felt like crying without tears. Were these kinds of things really up for discussion in public?
Yan Ye was even more ruthless, looking at her with eyes that seemed to smile but not smile.
