CHAPTER 247: CHAPTER 247: CHANG YAO QUESTIONS HIS LIFE!

"You are not worthy, not worthy!"

Chang Yao bellowed like a madman, his eyes blood red, and everyone in the General Mansion heard it.

Long Yue was slightly stunned, finding it amusing, "What does my use of perfume have to do with you?"

Chang Yao sneered, "Plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold, such a noble scent, you are not worthy of it!"

Long Yue found it even more laughable, her heart ached as she gently stroked the broken strand of her hair, "I have come from bitter cold since childhood and used plum blossom scent all my life. Who are you to judge my preferences? This is utterly absurd!"

"Boom!"

Chang Yao felt as if a fist had struck his head, dizzy, and unexpectedly staggered.

Pang Longyue has used plum blossom scent since childhood? No, impossible!

This is absolutely impossible!

"Even Shuang’er used to use plum blossom fragrance... I understand now, she must feel it a disgrace to use the same perfume as you, so..."

"Pfft..."

Chang Yao’s words made Long Yue burst into laughter, which household comedian said something this ridiculous?

She slightly frowned and said, "Pang Shuangyue has never used plum blossom fragrance, she prefers peony and rose, oh, and it seems also jasmine. Heh, what business does a big man like you have being so interested in what fragrance women use, hahaha..."

Long Yue glanced at him and laughed lightly, her speech full of deep ridicule.

Truthfully, Long Yue shouldn’t have wasted so much time talking to Chang Yao, but since she was spending her days at home with her husband...

That annoying man keeps crossing boundaries, making her love and hate him, wanting to strangle him yet can’t bear to, that frustration is unspeakable.

She just wanted someone to joke around with, to play with, and then Chang Yao walked right into it, a godsend, hahaha!

Chang Yao, however, was dumbfounded by Long Yue’s words.

She looked stunned at the radiant woman in front of her, momentarily unable to accept it.

This must be a dream, it must be a dream!

Wake up, quickly wake up!

"Pang Longyue, you better explain clearly why you use plum blossom fragrance, why, ah?"

Chang Yao descended into madness.

"Where did this mad dog come from, barking in the General Mansion? People!"

"Yo!"

Li Qingmu walked out with one hand behind his back, chest puffed out, and harshly scolded. As soon as he finished speaking, a hundred private soldiers swiftly assembled in the General Mansion, quickly surrounding Chang Yao.

"Changqiang Team, form ranks!"

"Clang!"

A whole hundred private soldiers, holding long spears, shining coldly and impressively, forced Chang Yao into a corner at once.

"Third Young Master Chang, if you are visiting the sick, you are most welcome. But if you’re here to act wildly, do not blame Mr. Li for showing no mercy! Please!"

Chang Yao stared at Long Yue with bloodshot eyes for a long time, finally snorting coldly and leaving.

As he walked away, Li Qingmu could no longer hold on and grabbed onto one of the soldiers beside him.

"Mr. Li?"

"Husband, you... why did you run out with such serious injuries?"

"Afraid you’ll be bullied!"

Li Qingmu smiled, enduring the pain on his back, pretending indifference, but it tugged on the wound, causing him to hiss and inhale sharply.

Long Yue looked distressed yet helpless, supporting him inside to rest.

...

Chang Yao left the General Mansion, dazed and disoriented.

Pang Shuangyue never used plum blossom fragrance?

It was Pang Longyue who used it?

Back then, he clearly remembered that the girl who saved him had a fresh yet slightly strong plum blossom scent, a fragrance that enveloped as water splashed on her.

It couldn’t be wrong, absolutely not!

So, who exactly saved him back then?

"Brother, where have you been all this time? I’ve been looking for you everywhere!"

Chang Lexi was walking down the street and saw Chang Yao coming over; she quickly ran over, pouting with a hint of complaint.

"I... I went to the General Mansion."

"Did you go to that bad woman to avenge Sister Shuang Yue?"

Chang Lexi was very excited upon hearing he went to the General Mansion, "Brother, let me tell you, that woman is really atrocious. If I hadn’t been stomach sick from menstruation that day, I would certainly have gone. If I went, there’s no way I’d just watch Sister Shuang Yue get beaten! Hey, brother, why aren’t you talking?"

Chang Lexi noticed her brother’s off mood, as if he was spacing out?

"Lexi, do you remember, previously... at Prime Minister Pei Mansion’s wedding, that rogue? Was what he said true?"

"False, it must be false! None of the girls in our circle believe it; it must have been that evil woman’s ploy to slander Sister Shuang Yue!"

"But... some people think it’s true..."

"They’re just jealous, jealous that Sister Shuang Yue married the eldest son of the Pei Family and became the Young Madam of the Pei Family. Those people are jealous and wish her misfortune!"

"Then... what if it is true?"

"Hey, brother, what’s gotten into you? Don’t forget, Sister Shuang Yue saved you back then and treated you so well?"

Chang Yao was startled, suddenly thought of something, and grabbed her: "Lexi, tell brother honestly, back then, did you personally see her carry me out of the fire?"

"Ah?" Chang Lexi was stumped by the question, her face conflicted, "Well... no, but when we found you, Sister Shuang Yue was there watching over you?"

"So, it wasn’t necessarily her who saved me, perhaps someone else did, and they were just watching over me?"

Chang Lexi blinked: "Brother, why are you thinking like this? What... what are you thinking?"

"Yes, that must be it! Then, who saved me back then? Was it her? No, it couldn’t be, she even hit me back then..."

Chang Yao pondered, suddenly holding his head, waves of dizziness and pain making him suffer unbearably.

"Brother, hey, brother, what’s happening? Brother?"

Chang Lexi reached to support Chang Yao, only for him to push her away: "No, I have to find her to get to the bottom of this!"

"What do you mean get to the bottom of it?"

A figure stood in front of Chang Yao, with a cold expression.

"Father?"

The person was Chang E, who looked at his younger son, shaking his head slightly with a bit of anger at his incompetence, and shouted, "Arguing in the street, what is this? Are you letting them all watch the Chang Family’s joke?"

"Father, I..."

"Get back!" Chang E said sternly, "Previously arguing in the General Mansion, even the neighbors heard it. Those who live there are either nobility or important ministers, and you have embarrassed the Chang Family’s reputation, and now you want the whole public to know?"

Chang E was furious, this brat, arguing over what fragrance a woman used at someone else’s house, and moreover Pang Longyue is a married woman, isn’t this perverted?

Let the courtiers know the Chang Family has this kind of pervert?

He’s lost all face!
