Avenge For Love novel Chapter 69

Wu Xingxie's eyes enlarged as her brother had never threw a tantrum ever before. After cultivating and honing his martial arts, his behavior had always been mature for his age.

At this moment, his arms were folded and he truly looked like a child who was angry because things weren't going the way they wanted.

"Xuan'er I'm sorry but this marriage was chosen by Madam Gu. She has helped me so much so I agreed." Wu Xingxie didn't want to hurt his feelings but she couldn't back out anymore. Madam Gu was going to be here in just a few hours. She already contacted Wu Dingxiang who agreed to let her visit. Everything was already set, Wu Dingxiang just had to give his blessings.

"Eldest Miss." Wei called to get her attention.

Wu Xingxie looked his way but avoided his eyes. Instead, she focused on the beauty mark under his eye.

"I think if you know you won't be hurt by this marriage, then go ahead and do it."

He told her, after pondering about what he should say.

He knew how serious Wu Xingxie was about the whole situation. As he had never confessed his feelings, he was aware that he had no right to stop her from refraining on her own choices.

Besides, he was just a guard to her. Society's rules would never allow them to be together for she was a noble. As for him, he abandoned his noble lineage long ago when his Master adopted him.

As the words poured out from his mouth, Wu Xingxie subconsciously bit her lips. Deep down, she at least hoped he would dissuade her from marrying.

How foolish of her as his words were the complete opposite of what she wanted to hear.

A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes as she smiled bitterly.

"Since Guard Wei agrees with my choice, I will go ahead and marry General Tang."

I will go ahead and marry General Tang.

Those eight words resonated in his head.

Wei regretted his words earlier. Of course, it was too late as Madam Gu successfully received Wu Dingxiang's blessings.

The general merely agreed because at first he thought she was here regarding her husband's death, but it turned out she wanted to arrange a marriage.

Wu Xingxie and Tang Yanan.

Wu Dingxiang was no fool, so he weighed the pros and cons of the marriage before coming to an ultimate decision.

If Wu Xingxie married General Tang, their troops would be combined. He could plant Wu Xingxie as a mole so that they have no further investigations in his drug business. His reputation would be boosted once again.

Still, he couldn't trust the junior general. What if he tried to harm Wu Xingxie? It's not that he was worried about her being unable to defend herself but the fact that if for whatever reason she falls in love with him, Wu Xingxie might betray him.

He had to find a way to not allow that to never happen.

Wu Dingxiang stealthily made his way to the hidden part of the estate that no one else knew about. Not even Wu Yunxia was aware of the underground rooms below where they lived.

Wu Dingxiang sat speechless at her choice. That meant they'd have to prepare everything in a mere two months!

"Hold on, isn't this too short for planning a wedding? I mean-" Wu Dingxiang didn't get to finish as the lady cut him off,

"Are you doubting the skills of my people? Even if it took two weeks, they will get everything done!"

The general refrained from speaking, holding back his anger.

You are just a widow, How dare you order me around?!

"This wedding is important for the both of us. I don't care about the dowry as long as the wedding takes place." Madam Gu assertively stated, looking at the man. Although her face held a blank expression, the loathe in her eyes revealed itself just for a few seconds.

"Alright. I will have my servants take care of the gifts. As for who should be invited, we'll decide that next."

"Yes, regarding the guests, I have a few friends who I want to invite. I'm sure you know the head of the Bao clan?" Her last sentence was a statement and a question, almost as if she was ridiculing him.

Wu Dingxiang perked his ears up,

"You know him?"

He didn't think this woman would have connections to the person whom he desperately wanted to form an alliance with.
