Chapter 224: Excellent Acting

The Old Madam jerked in shock and looked at Mrs. He. Even Lihua and Jiang Ruiling were in disbelief.

Her plan was to make Jiang Fai naturally point out all of Shen Yang's qualities so that it would become easier for them to pitch him in at the appropriate time.

But to think that someone from the guests would propose this to Old Madam…

She smiled. "Why do you look so shocked? I am quite touched by this young man's words. This incident really made me realize through Jiang Fai what should be important in a marriage. Having money is nice, but in the end it will never win against one's loyal and good nature. I think the other ladies here would agree with me too."

They furiously nodded.

"Indeed we run after a family with good wealth and status, but do I want that at the cost of living with a womanizer husband? Never."

"Hm, hm! If this is Wen Yaoting's true face, I would rather remain single all my life."

All the voices against him made Wen Yaoting burn in shame and embarrassment.

Ruomei was shell-shocked. "Mrs. He, you cannot be serious! You cannot fall into their trap! This is what they exactly want."

Mrs. He snorted. "We all had enough of your lies, Shi Ruomei. And even if hypothetically they do want this, what is wrong with that? Wen Yaoting can never compare to Shen Yang."

They froze.

Shen Yang dazedly watched the crowd. He never thought that he would get such recognition from these wealthy socialites to marry Jiang Ruiling.

Jiang Ninghong glanced at her husband and asked, "What do you think, Weiyuan? Li?" She raised her brow at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li said, "Dad had personally recruited Shen Yang into our security force. It was his decision too to make him the chief and also Ruiling's bodyguard. I have seen him work and his performance and observed his nature up close as well. If it is him, then I can rest assured. I want a strong man for my sister, not a wimp."

The insult was a harsh slap on Wen Yaoting's face.

Shen Yang trembled.

Jiang Weiyuan narrowed his eyes and ever so slightly nodded. There wasn't much shift in his expression and neither could anybody read what his gaze meant.

"The important thing is what Ruiling and Shen Yang think about each other."

Ruiling straightened up and she seemed to be in deep thought. "This is so sudden…I mean Shen Yang…"

Wen Yaoting almost lunged at her to strangle, but Shen Yang's sharp gaze immediately noticed his stance. He rushed like lightning and with his strong fist pushed and threw him back. He blew away akin to a broken kite. He coughed hard as he got up.

"Yaoting!"

Wen Qiang and his wife looked at their son's pathetic state in horror.

His frosty and chilling gaze threatened to skin him alive. "Don't dare touch, young mistress!"

Wen Yaoting was still coughing as he spoke, "You two...you two are acting! That bitch is behaving as if it's such a…*cough* hard choice to make! She must be jumping in happiness!"

The sound of knuckles cracking came and before he knew it, another punch landed on his face.

"Ahhhh!"

Blood spilled from his nose and he yelped in pain.

"Stop with the profanities towards the young mistress! Don't forget your place."

Jiang Fai sneered. "What can we expect from an uneducated man?"

Mrs. He sighed. "Jiang Ruiling is lucky that she got saved."

The others nodded.

"Well Old Madam. It's your family matter. But if it would have been me, I wouldn't have hesitated to choose him anymore. I mean even when he was locked up, he broke through the room to save her. His dedication is remarkable."

Shen Yang smiled. "You flatter me, Mrs. He. I was just doing my duty."

Lihua cautiously observed the Old Madam and tried to gauge her reaction.

The Old Madam was still personally hesitant to let Jiang Ruiling marry Shen Yang.

What is this luck of mine…

First Weizhe marries Yubi, then Wei brings Lixue as his wife who are nothing but average women and now even Ruiling?

But more than that, she was embarrassed to know that the man she chose for Jiang Ruiling turned out to be scum. It felt like a slap on her face that she failed in her choices.

And in front of all these guests whose thinking took such a huge shift, she had no way to reject this proposal. Her reputation was already scarred because of Ruomei and Wen Yaoting. She couldn't afford for people to think any less and unbending than this.

She smiled. "Indeed, this opened my eyes too. Ruomei and Wen Yaoting were my choices for Wei and Ruiling. But both of them turned out to be snakes trying to harm my family."

Jiang Fai snorted and mumbled, "Don't just conveniently forget Li Tingzhe that bastard…"

The Old Madam clearly heard it and shut him with her deadly glare.

"This is sudden, but I think that they will do well together. Ruiling and Shen Yang."

Shen Yang couldn't believe his ears.

Did they actually succeed in gaining her approval?

The Old Madam looked at Ruiling. "What do you think, Ruiling?"

She smiled. "I had some inhibitions when Mrs. He suggested Shen Yang for me. It took my surprise honestly. I mean he was always beside me as my guard and now he will be my husband... But I know he is a good man. After all, he has always followed me. And after tonight, I don't desire a wealthy life as long as my husband respects me which Shen Yang does. If Old Madam thinks that he is right for me, then I am ready."

Lihua was impressed with her performance. After all, she couldn't agree to it too easily and make everyone suspicious by her reaction.

She sighed. "Shen Yang, are you okay with it? I know you would have never imagined this outcome…"
