Li Qiang's eyes were filled with rage when he saw the scene in front of his eyes on stepping out of Li Manor.
Li Rong who also had run out behind him had eyes full of panic…especially when her eyes caught Lu Jianye who was not standing too far from Li Na and Xi Ying.
She also heard Li Na's loud shouts as she had begged Xi Ying.
Li Rong really wished to know at this moment what exactly was going on inside her elder daughter's mind.
Was she not happy with this marriage? She herself had told her that she was very happy with this marriage then what happened suddenly.
If she was satisfied with this marriage then why she was doing this now.
Li Rong would not be surprised if Lu Jianye decided not to go ahead with this marriage after this incident.
Which man would like to see the girl he was about to marry begging in front of some other man like this?
"Li Na"
Li Rong shouted as she made a run towards her daughter.
She had seen Li Qiang looking towards the guards and she was sure that he was soon going to ask the guards to pick Li Na from the ground and take her inside the Li Manor.
However, Li Rong didn't want this to happen. Her daughter had already ashamed herself so much in front of Lu Jianye …if more there won't be left any cent percent of chance to undo all this.
"Li Na. what are you doing?"
As she bent down to pick her daughter from the ground, Li Rong's contempt-filled eyes fell on Xi Ying too who was standing lazily.
What was he even doing here?
Inside her heart, she didn't blame Li Na for what she was doing instead she blamed Xi Ying for that.
Without even realizing, how unreasonable she was being, Li Rong held Li Na firmly and looked at Xi Ying as she asked
"What is Prime Minister Xi doing here?"
Li Ring's heart was actually filled with fear. Remembering the last time, Xi Ying had come and whatever happened to her children after that, she didn't even want Xi Ying to step inside Li Manor and she was very tempted to do that.
However, she knew that she didn't hold that power.
Xi Ying was, after all, Li Rui's husband…and her daughters had tried to do much harm to Li Rui so it would be Li Rui who would be preferred over her daughters.
Swallowing down the bitterness, Li Rong waited for Xi Ying's answer.
Li Na also had realized by now that she seemed to have done a stupid mistake. She should not have done this. However, even after realizing this, she couldn't help but look at Xi Ying's beautiful face.
A part of her heart wished that Xi Ying would look at her and accept her wish of becoming his concubine. She was ready to become his concubine …because she knew that no one would dare to say anything to her after that.
No one would dare to mock her.
Becoming Lu Jianye's main wife had fewer benefits than becoming Xi Ying's concubine.
However, the young Prime Minister didn't even look at Li Na. Xi Ying didn't look at Li Rong too.
His eyes instead moved to General Li who was standing silently beside Li Qiang and he said lazily.
"General Li, this Lord wishes to have a talk with you."
General Li looked t Xi Ying silently for a few moments. His eyes then went to Lu Jianye who was still standing with no expression on his face and he spoke to Li Qiang first.
"Elder Brother should invite Young Master Lu inside Li Manor first."
Li Qiang's face didn't look good. He was actually wondering what was Lu Jianye doing here. Not only he but even family member in the Li family was thinking about this.
However, at this moment, they could only keep their mouths shut and try to handle this awkward and embarrassing situation that had been created by Li Na.
After speaking to Li Qiang, General Li looked at Xi Ying finally and said
"Please come inside, Prime Minister Xi."
Xi Ying nodded his head and followed General Li inside Li Manor while Li Qiang walked towards Lu Jianye and asked him coldly.
"What are you doing here?"
Lu Jianye came out of his trance.
His eyes were still moist and red a little and he looked behind Li Qiang first. He saw Li Na's mother taking her inside Li Manor and she looked in a kind of daze.
Lu Jianye had many questions inside his heart he wanted to ask Li Na.
Did she really mean that?
She could become Xi Ying's concubine but she was not ready to become his wife when he was taking some other woman as his concubine?
Did not Xi Ying already have a wife and it was none other than her own sister?
Lu Jianye's fists clenched and he composed himself with great difficulty when he heard Li Qiang calling him again.
"Huh?"
He asked in confusion. Seeing his confusion, Li Qiang frowned and asked him the same question again.
"I had come here to drop Li Na, Minister Li. We met each other in the temple."
Lu Jianye answered Li Qiang honestly.
Li Qiang's eyes sharpened instantly and he looked at Lu Jianye coldly.
"Young Master Lu, I had thought that you were more intelligent than this."
Li Qiang was not a fool who could not realize what exactly was going on.
Lu Jianye sighed. He knew that it was wrong of him to meet Li Na before the marriage but how could he make his heart understand this.
However, he suddenly felt that perhaps he should not have really arranged this meeting.
Lu Jianye sighed again and he suddenly looked at Li Qiang with a serious face.
He realized that he should have told Li Qiang already but he could do that now too so he told him.
"Minister Li, my father had put a condition in front of me. Only then he would accept Li Na as my wife. The condition is that I will take Yu clan's daughter, Yu Wei as my concubine inside the Lu Manor after my marriage with Li Na."
And as Lu Jianye had expected, Li Qiang's face didn't really look good after his words.
