The Whole Dynasty Spoils the Tyrant's Beloved Youngest Daughter-Chapter 497 - 494: Long Hair Tied to His Heart: Yu Wei Side Story (20)
Song Wanwan was extremely dissatisfied, pride overtaking her, she wished she could immediately announce her schemed plan, so everyone would stop talking about Song Wei and Jun Yu, and start talking about her and Jun Yu instead.
She was as beautiful as a flower, skilled in the four arts, superior to Song Wei in every way, she was the only one truly worthy of Jun Yu.
What is Song Wei?
Hah!
"Big sister, I advise you to hold back a little, it’s better not to let others see any issues." Song Manman saw Song Wanwan’s arrogant demeanor and gave a well-intended warning.
Song Wanwan snorted coldly, not taking it to heart at all.
Seeing this, Song Manman shook her head and walked away.
She didn’t intend to get involved in Song Wanwan’s muddled affairs, choosing to observe for the time being.
She always felt that being too aggressive in doing things could make one fall into a mire, leaving no room to turn back in the end.
For beautiful things, it’s better to proceed slowly.
Song Wanwan watched Song Manman’s departing figure, sneering and mumbling, "Hmph, second sister, you are just jealous that I’m about to become the Prince’s woman, that’s why you’re saying so much nonsense."
"I am your real sister, at a time like this, shouldn’t you be encouraging me? Supporting me? Agreeing with me? And stand by my side without reservation?"
"What does this odd attitude mean?"
If Song Manman knew what chaotic thoughts were in Song Wanwan’s mind, she would certainly faint with anger.
...
After Madam Song finished her tasks, she came to find Song Wanwan.
"Mother..." When Song Wanwan saw Madam Song, she felt one step closer to her beautiful future, she hurriedly approached Madam Song, saying coyly, "You have finally come."
Madam Song smiled hearing this, taking Song Wanwan’s hand, she said, "Silly girl, what’s there to be so anxious about?"
Song Wanwan replied, "I just want to accomplish my goal quickly." So she could earn those voices of praise, and fiercely slap the faces of those who looked down on her?
Madam Song said, "Knowing you’re anxious, your mother specially came to tell you that everything has been prepared, at lunchtime, mother will find a way to lead the Seventeenth Prince to your room."
Song Wanwan became nervous, "Will it be done in my room?"
Madam Song nodded, "Yes, yes, your people are around your room, it’s convenient for us to accomplish our goal."
Song Wanwan shyly nodded, "Mm, I’ll listen to mother."
Madam Song looked up and down at her daughter, Song Wanwan was wearing a red ruffled tulle dress today, styled her hair in the most fashionable maidens’ bun, and wore newly crafted jewelry.
Her skin was fair, the red accentuating her radiant splendor.
Such a delicate young lady.
"Today’s Wanwan is very beautiful, even mother likes it so much, the Seventeenth Prince will definitely like it too." Madam Song said, patting Song Wanwan’s hand with satisfaction.
Song Wanwan asked shyly, "The love incense mother mentioned before, will mother have someone light it, or should daughter do it herself?"
"You don’t need to worry about that, mother will take care of everything, you just need to stay beautifully in your room." Madam Song advised, "You won’t need to appear at the banquet later, mother will have lunch sent to your room, finish your meal early, clean up and wait, don’t be as slow as usual, taking forever to eat."
After a pause, she added, "Don’t let the Seventeenth Prince arrive when you’re still dining, understand?"
"...I understand!" Song Wanwan said with a red face, a bit bashful, "You’ve said this so many times, mother, Wanwan can recite it by heart."
"Alright, since you know, go back to your room and wait, the banquet is about to start, I’m going to work."
...
After Madam Song bid farewell to Song Wanwan, she went to the flower hall to arrange for the guests to be seated with Mr. Song, as the time was almost up, it was time to start the banquet.
Today’s guests were mainly close relatives and friends of the Song family, and partners frequently engaged in business with them. There weren’t many people, five tables were enough to seat them all.
But these people were prominent figures locally.
Yet, compared to this noble Seventeenth Prince, they were much inferior.
After everyone was seated, they were still discussing the good marriage between Song Wei and Jun Yu, secretly envying Mr. Song, having such a son-in-law was truly like a pie falling from the sky!
Mr. Song felt pleased hearing this, but didn’t show it on his face, instead gave Madam Song a meaningful glance, and Madam Song gave him a look indicating everything was arranged, Mr. Song poured a glass of wine, stood up, and smilingly addressed everyone.
"Mr. Song thanks all esteemed friends and family for gracing us with your presence today, I raise a glass to all of you, and drink first as courtesy!"
Mr. Song tipped his head back and drank the entire glass, after swallowing he smiled and showed the empty glass to the attendees.
Not a drop of wine spilled.
"Mr. Song is so bold!"
A voice praised.
Mr. Song nodded towards the person praising him, then turned to look at the Seventeenth Prince and Song Wei, sitting next to him.
"I believe everyone knows the reason for Mr. Song’s invitation today."
"Previously, I intended to marry off my daughter, and invited everyone, but my daughter has another fate, the prior engagement had to be terminated."
"Today I invited everyone, first to offer my apologies, and second to inform you all that on the day my youngest daughter marries the Seventeenth Prince of Dongchu Kingdom, you will be invited again, and I hope you all will grace us with your presence then."
Such an explanation was also an account to everyone, clarifying the reason why Song Wei suddenly didn’t marry Mr. Li, terminating the engagement.
It was also considerate.
Everyone also understood.
"Mr. Song is too kind, we all understand."
"Yes, uncle is too polite."
Mr. Song was very satisfied with everyone’s reactions, he nodded and then looked at Jun Yu, sitting beside him, and in a negotiating tone, said to Jun Yu, "Ah Yu, do you want to also toast the uncles and aunts?"
Since learning Jun Yu’s name, Mr. Song began calling him Ah Yu, and no longer referred to him as the Seventeenth Prince.
It sounded more intimate.
But it was only just in sound.
Jun Yu nodded, "I should."
Jun Yu held Song Wei’s hand and stood up, he poured a cup of wine and first handed it to Song Wei, before pouring himself a glass.
This considerate gesture showed his respect and care for Song Wei.
Suddenly, applause burst out.
Jun Yu won much applause from the beginning.
Song Wei had never been looked at by so many people before, she was a bit nervous, also uneasy, but fortunately, Jun Yu was there, looking at Jun Yu, she wasn’t so nervous anymore. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
Feeling Song Wei’s unease, Jun Yu gave her a comforting look, then holding Song Wei’s hand, he faced the crowd and said, "Dear friends and family, greetings everyone, I am Jun Yu, and wish to marry Xiao Wei. I greet you all."
