Chapter 193 Acting
Wu Zinian naturally didn't really want to kill Tang Jingchen, but for the sake of acting he had to make it more real, so he followed his wife's words and spoke to Tang Jingchen.
"Since Mr. Tang loves my daughter and can't wait to do such an ugly thing, he should go home quickly to report to his parents and take my daughter home, and then the matter will be over. It will also save everyone's face."
Ever since Wu Zinian arrived, Tang Jingchen had not been given a chance to say a word. Whether he was insulted or attacked, he could only endure it quietly.
Now seeing that everyone was looking at him, he finally had a chance to speak, and he said, "There's no way I can marry your daughter."
Such a sentence is like a drop of water falling into boiling hot oil, instantly splashing up a pool of boiling oil.
Everyone in the Wu family was extremely angry and glared at Tang Jingchen fiercely, as if they were about to step forward and tear into pieces the man who dared to trample on the dignity and face of the Wu family.
Just when Wu Zinian was about to attack again, Tang Jingchen said, "I don't know what Miss Wu did to me, but I really didn't know anything at the time."
Wu Zinian's eyes widened, looking at the ignorant young man in front of him in disbelief. He dared to speak so shamelessly! He gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean by this? Are you still trying to deny it?"
Tang Jingchen's eyes were firm, with no intention of backing down: "I'm just telling the truth. I don't remember anything after I drank the bowl of soup that Miss Wu sent me last night..."
"Enough!" Wu Zinian was furious and interrupted Tang Jingchen. "You are such a shameless boy. You committed such a heinous crime and yet you still want to shirk responsibility! If you don't give us a satisfactory explanation today, you will pay a heavy price!"
Tang Jingchen showed no fear and still insisted on his statement: "I said, I don't know what happened, but I will never marry your daughter."
Wu Zinian was so angry that he laughed, "A real man should take responsibility for his actions. You have tarnished my daughter's innocence and you are slandering her in return! You are such a shameless person who confuses right and wrong and makes up stories! I will go and ask the Eighth Prince to make the decision for my daughter!"
In addition to the people from the Wu Mansion, some guards under the Eighth Prince naturally gathered in the yard. Even Shun'er heard the noise and rushed over from the servants' room not far away.
Immediately, the guards walked towards the Eighth Prince's courtyard to report this erotic and absurd affair to him.
Shun'er scratched his head and stood silently beside the young master, not knowing what to do.
Although he didn't believe that the young master would do such a thing, the facts were before him, and he was worried that the young master might not be able to get away tonight! He couldn't help but look at Xiao Guo'er, and sighed in his heart, how could things suddenly turn out like this?
A moment later, the Eighth Prince Zhao Yunrong, followed by his personal bodyguard Shen Jing, rushed over.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, the noisy sounds disappeared instantly.
At this time, everyone in the courtyard bowed and greeted the Eighth Prince who came in, with only one exception.
The person looked distraught and her body stiff, as if everything happening before her had nothing to do with her.
She stood there, motionless, like a sculpture.
Zhao Yunrong glanced quietly at her, then pretended not to see her and raised his hand to exempt everyone from the greetings.
Wu Zinian was about to complain with indignation, but was stopped by the Eighth Prince. He said in a deep voice with impatience, "Master Wu, do you think this is glorious? With so many people watching, aren't you worried that this will get out and affect the reputation of the Wu family?"
Wu Zinian was stunned for a moment, wondering in his heart, why is the Eighth Prince's attitude so strange at this time? Obviously before... But when he saw the Eighth Prince's sinister eyes, he immediately asked the housekeeper to drive all the servants out of the yard, leaving only a few trusted servants.
The yard suddenly became spacious and open, and the housekeeper ordered the servants to light a row of lanterns in the middle of the yard. In an instant, the whole yard was as bright as day.
Wu Zinian carefully observed the Eighth Prince's expression, and hesitantly began his passionate performance, "Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for me and my daughter!"
Zhao Yunrong's gaze passed between Tang Jingchen, who looked embarrassed and wanted to speak, and Xiao Guoer, who was silent behind him and looked like a wandering soul. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then he spoke slowly and leisurely.
“Although this incident has a greater impact on the woman’s reputation, we cannot jump to conclusions based on just one side of the story.
Of course, I have no intention of shielding anyone. After all, Tang Jingchen was brought here by me. If he really did something lawless and abandoned you, I will definitely give you an explanation.
But before that, I will never favor any side. Everything will have to wait until I have questioned them both and seen the evidence before I can make a conclusion. "
Wu Zinian seemed quite excited after hearing this, and said quickly, "Your Highness is right, but how can there be evidence for such a thing? My daughter is simple-minded and lost her virginity after being deceived by someone. Now Mr. Tang is deliberately denying it, how can my daughter prove her innocence?"
Zhao Yunrong remained calm and responded calmly, "Lord Wu, please be patient. I want to hear what they have to say first."
"Yes, Your Highness." Wu Zinian had no choice but to glare at Tang Jingchen fiercely with indignation, and then asked Madam Wu to bring out Wu Qingqing, who was still crying and sad in the room.
The young girl walked slowly out of the door, her face full of tears as she suffered so much injustice. She kept sobbing quietly, her long black hair spread all over her shoulders. Her delicate figure trembled as she walked towards her. She looked so pitiful that everyone who saw her felt pity for her.
Shun'er saw this and thought it was not good. The young master was clearly in love with Xiao Guo'er, and he would never believe that the young master would fall in love with someone else. But Miss Wu's attitude did not seem fake. After all, which young lady would be willing to sacrifice her innocence and ruin her reputation to accuse a man of cheating on her? Even though the Tang family was extremely wealthy, everyone in the Wu family thought that the young master was a homosexual. How could Miss Wu be willing to marry a homosexual?
In fact, the remaining servants of the Wu Mansion also had such questions in their hearts. Isn't Tang Jingchen a homosexual? Why did he want to provoke Miss Wu? Could it be that he is a man-catcher?
Perhaps it was because Wu Qingqing's usual personality was too quiet, gentle, well-behaved and sensible, so few people would suspect that it was Wu Qingqing who took the initiative to provoke Tang Jingchen, let alone think that Wu Qingqing would set a trap to frame Tang Jingchen.
