Chapter 401: Prince Xiao’s banquet
The night was dark, but Xu Furen and Meng Yuande’s faces were darker than the night.
“How can you say that Zheng Ruxue doesn’t deserve you? Why are you not willing to be with her?” Meng Yuande was the center of power of the Meng family and even the Meng clan. The thing that he hated most was when someone disobeys him. If the person in front of him was not his legitimate son, he will punish him according to the family’s rule. Why would he bother to endure things up until now?
Meng Nan was kneeling in front of Meng Yuande with a straight back and calm face. He looked up to his father and said: “Father, I am now old, I am no longer the former Meng Nan. I hope I can take control of my own marriage and choose the one that I love. Instead of turning my lifelong happiness into a victim of your official interests. ”
Meng Yuande slammed his hand on the table, the lid on the delicate porcelain jar was shaken by his external force, it rolled several times and landed on the floor covered with thick embroidered blankets.
“You son of a bitch, can you hear what you’re saying? As a Meng Family son, you should put the benefit of the Meng Family first at all times. This is the price you have to pay for enjoying such prosperity and wealth, don’t you know that?”
Meng Nan frowned. Rage gradually gathered up to his originally calm heart. His calm eyes also gradually became cold and sharp.
“As a Meng Family’s son? Prosperity and wealth? Father, don’t you really know the truth or are you pretending? Since I, Meng Nan, came to this world, how much hardship did I suffered? How many times did I suffer? How many times have I been assassinated? How many times did I have to escape, even my brother—my brother’s death, is it just an accident? ”
When Xu Furen heard her eldest son, her eyes immediately turned red in grief.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Meng Yuande stared at Meng Nan with knitted eyebrows. His face was filled with anger, and Xu Furen was confused. How could Meng Nan know this?
Meng Nan secretly sneered: “What nonsense? Father, I am no longer the boy of that year. I? grew up, I know what’s right and what’s wrong, I know how to argue. And I know that this so-called prosperity and wealth is just ridiculous.”
He had thought many times that if he was not born in the Meng family, would his brother die? Will he live a helpless life?
Especially after encountering Bai Zhi in Qingyuan Town, his feeling became stronger and stronger. He wanted to be free and do what he wanted to do just like ordinary people.
Seeing the confrontation between the father and the son, Xu Furen was upset inside her heart. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and gently pulled her husband’s sleeve, and said with a low voice: “Laoye, let’s talk about marriage later. I don’t want you, father and son hurt each other because of this.”
Meng Yuande had never seen Meng Nan like this before. He was surprised and happy inside his heart, but he was also worried.
Meng Nan grows up and finally act like a real man. He was naturally happy. However, this kind of man will be hard to leave alone.
After a period of silence, Meng Yuande waved his hand: “Well, let’s not mentioned this matter for the time being, but it does not mean that this matter had passed. You can think about this matter again, and then give me a definite answer later on.”
Meng Nan didn’t say a thing. For him, his answer today will be his answer next time. He will never marry Zheng Ruxue.
Meng Yuande added another thing: “Tomorrow, Prince Xiao will host a banquet in the Diner’s house. You will go with me.”
Meng Nan frowned: “Prince Xiao? What am I going to do there?” He and Prince Xiao had never met before. What will he do there?
*Laoye – Master.
