Chapter 462: Chapter 462 Catching Adultery in Bed
Lu Yan saw the change in Madam Guan’s face and added fuel to the fire, "Auntie Guan, if it gets any later, who knows, she might even be pregnant by now. You claim your daughter is innocent, but without checking, how can you prove her innocence?"
Madam Guan clenched her fists, her mind swirling as she weighed the pros and cons.
Hearing the certainty in Lu Yan’s tone, she truly feared that her daughter had been led astray.
What if...
Why hadn’t she been more cautious today? She thought no one would dare to pull any tricks at the Guan family’s birthday banquet.
But she hadn’t expected the Xiang Family and the Lu Family to be so audacious!
"Auntie Guan, my brother Ze and Miss Guan are a good match, not disgracing the Guan Family at all. Why don’t we just settle the marriage?"
Lu Yan pressed on relentlessly.
Madam Guan, with her deep love for her daughter, couldn’t stay calm.
Considering going to Atan, what if it had been a setup by Xiang Ze... Atan’s reputation would be completely ruined, and according to the Guan family’s ancestral teachings, she could only marry Xiang Ze.
If they didn’t go, Lu Yan would spread slander about her innocence.
It was a no-win situation!
Madam Guan gritted her teeth and said, "Our Atan might just have been delayed by something, I’ll send a servant to find her."
Lu Yan would not miss this rare opportunity; they had been planning for this day at the Guan family’s feast for a long time.
"Auntie Guan, everyone in the Imperial Capital says that the daughters raised by the Guan family are the most genteel and elegant, having the lineage of a noble concubine in your ancestry. By preventing us like this, could it be that you’re hiding something?"
A few shameless rascals chimed in, "Yeah, why stop us from checking?"
"Could it be that she’s really with Xiang Ze? So many young talents came to the birthday feast because of Guan Jingtan. If she has found someone, and you are still hiding it, that’s really not honorable."
"You Guan family had previously rejected the proposal from the Xiang Family, now why is your precious daughter still cozying up to them? Pretending to be respectable but acting otherwise, haha..."
These people were all bribed by Lu Yan, daring to say anything.
"I, Guan Qingguo am not dead yet, who dares to misbehave at my birthday feast!"
Mr. Guan’s voice rang out loud and clear, dressed in modest indigo attire, striding energetically.
He scowled, looking around.
"Is it you worthless curs that can’t weigh more than two ounces? Didn’t your elders teach you to speak properly? Dogs can’t spit out ivory. Butler, throw these few out!"
Mr. Guan ordered indifferently.
The old butler immediately had the security escort these young men out.
Lu Yan turned provocatively, "Grandpa Guan, are you trying to silence us? How can you silence the voice of the masses? The rumors about Guan Jingtan and Xiang Ze’s ambiguous relationship will spread throughout the Imperial Capital by tomorrow."
Mr. Guan chuckled coldly, "Lu Family’s youngster, even Lu Bannong wouldn’t dare to be so arrogant in front of me."
His fierce eyes gleamed coldly as he lightly said, "Since you all care so much about my Atan, then go have a look. I’d like to see what conclusions you can draw."
"Dad! No!" Madam Guan knew the stakes and said with a flushed face and gritted teeth, "We can’t go, there must be a trap."
Mr. Guan didn’t heed her words, merely stating, "Our Guan family conducts ourselves openly, we have nothing to hide. Let’s go!"
"Okay!"
Lu Yan slowly clapped, "Grandpa Guan is truly forthright; let’s all go and witness. If I’m proven wrong, I will sincerely apologize. If Miss Guan and the young Master Xiang are together, then Grandpa Guan can settle the marriage between the two families right there."
Mr. Guan’s face turned steely, his heart seething, "Okay!"
The guests weren’t fools; of course, they sensed something fishy about tonight’s event.
Everyone loves gossip and wanted to know the firsthand information.
Thus, they all grandly followed out.
The Guan Royal Mansion was indeed large; if one were to walk a full circle, it would take till midnight.
Lu Yan naturally had made preparations early on.
With so many servants in the Guan family, there were bound to be a few bad apples.
A little extra money could settle them.
He smirked, watching the drama unfold.
At this moment.
In the surrounding corridor, a young maid hurried over, her panic evident in the bustling crowd, her face turning red.
She timidly called out, "Madam..."
Madam Guan slightly closed her eyes and asked, "What’s the matter?" It was as if she was being roasted on a fire, unable to escape.
The young maid stammered, "I just went to fetch the young mistress for the feast, but... but I saw the young mistress and young Master Xiang going into a room, I didn’t dare to disturb."
Madam Guan’s heart sank, "Nonsense!"
"I... really saw it."
Lu Yan laughed louder, "Auntie Guan, Grandpa Guan. It seems I was right, Miss Guan indeed admires my brother Ze. So, whether we go to see or not, the marriage must be settled now. Otherwise, it would disgrace the noble lineage of the Gua’erjia Clan."
Mr. Guan’s expression darkened, "Since we’ve come this far, let’s go and see clearly. My Atan, she knows her limits well."
"Let’s go!"
"Dad!" Madam Guan exclaimed.
Mr. Guan seemed to be acting spitefully, "Let’s go!"
The guests had varying expressions, following them to Guan Jingtan’s residence.
As they approached.
Through a carved wooden door.
They heard a woman’s tender cries and the creaking sound of wood.
Most of the people present were experienced and understood what these sounds implied, each revealing knowing smirks.
"I heard Miss Guan has a valuable carved Thousand Workmanship Step-on Bed, worth a fortune. Such beds are extremely sturdy..."
Someone followed up, "Well, with such noise, it only speaks to the young Master Xiang’s capability; even the sturdy Step-on Bed is making noises, no wonder Miss Guan is crying out. The soundproofing of these old buildings is not bad, to be making such a racket..."
"The passion of the lovers; perhaps the previous rejection of marriage was because the old master disagreed. Young people, like dry tinder, flare up upon seeing each other."
"Mr. Guan is the most traditional and old-fashioned; Miss Guan is just a young girl. Suppressed for so long, now she must unleash her true nature."
"Young Master Xiang is indeed lucky. Now, the whole situation in the Imperial Capital will change completely."
They gossiped profusely, but no one attempted to push the door.
Some less decent onlookers, listening to the contrived female voices inside, even speculated that a young noble lady could be so wanton.
But Madam Guan furrowed her brows, a hint of astonishment on her face.
She knew her own daughter’s voice all too well.
This was not...
She locked eyes with the old master, standing frozen in place.
Lu Yan, still reveling in the success of his scheme, openly remarked, "Guan family has a happy occasion on the horizon."
Mr. Guan snorted coldly, "Butler, go push the door!"
"Grandpa Guan, I know the Guan family values marriages arranged by parents and matchmakers. You’re in a rush, but spare some dignity for your granddaughter. What if she’s undressed..."
Lu Yan commented gleefully.
Mr. Guan coldly ordered, "Push the door open!"
"Yes."
The butler had no choice but to step forward and push the door.
As they approached, the sounds of the man and woman in love grew louder.
With a loud clang, the door was thrust open.
