Chapter 81 How interesting
"Don't bring this up again!" Yu Yuetong tried her best to remain calm, but her clenched teeth betrayed her emotions. She didn't know how to respond, after all, this marriage was not her original intention, but she understood that responding would be a sign of weakness, and she absolutely could not let Ji Momo succeed.
"Willing what? What right does she have to question you!" Qin Yu, tall and long-legged, strode to Yu Yuetong's side, standing protectively in front of her. His gaze seemed to convey a hidden message, as if to tell Yu Yuetong—don't be afraid, I will stand up for you.
"Haha~" Ji Momo laughed suddenly, like a blooming poisonous flower, sinister and mocking. "I'm just worried about you. After all, if Yu Yuetong doesn't want to be with you at all, you might become the sacrificial lamb."
Yu Yuetong felt a chill run down her spine. The words she was about to say were swallowed back, and the smile on her lips froze. She tilted her head back, letting the sunlight shine into her eyes, hoping to extinguish the shadows in her heart with its light. But this momentary emptiness, like a burden in the dark night, grew heavier and heavier.
"I will let everyone know the significance of this marriage!" Qin Yu said without backing down, his cold and sharp tone like a knife. His slender fingers rested on Yu Yuetong's shoulder, conveying his unwavering determination and trust.
"Really? I hope you can do it." Ji Momo had to admit that Qin Yu's behavior at this moment did make her feel a bit of an unexpected threat, but the smile on her lips was still on her face. "However, I still think Yu Yuetong is not worthy of being your wife."
Yu Yuetong gritted her teeth silently, as if to say, "Who says I'm not worthy? Nothing in this world can define my worth! I will control my own future!"
Just as she was deep in thought, trying to find a good opportunity to refute him, Qin Yu suddenly grasped her hand, his grip just right, the warmth of his hand reaching between them. Yu Yuetong froze, the warmth of his hand stirring her heartstrings, and the tacit understanding that had unexpectedly arisen vanished instantly.
“Yu Yuetong,” Qin Yu lowered his head, his eyes as firm as water, “I will make you happy, you have to believe me.”
"I..." Yu Yuetong's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to refute, but Qin Yu's gaze drew her in, and the words became difficult to utter. She hadn't expected that what she thought was a transactional marriage would now bring about subtle emotional fluctuations.
"What's wrong? Feeling guilty?" Seeing this, Ji Momo was unwilling to give up so easily and sneered, destroying the atmosphere they had built up. "After all, in my opinion, you have no right to refute my words at all."
"Enough, shut up!" Qin Yu was furious, his voice low and slightly suppressed. "Ji Momo, no matter what you say, it won't change the relationship between Yu Yuetong and me!"
Yu Yuetong looked up at Qin Yu, her heart churning with turmoil. She realized that even the usually dominant one could be vulnerable at times. She bit her lip slightly, deciding to break her silence.
“I’m not really willing to get married, but I’ll try, and maybe things will turn out differently.” Her voice grew increasingly firm.
"Oh? I wonder who taught you to say that! Do you really want to regret it at the last minute, just like Ji Momo said?" Ji Momo became increasingly rude, her mocking gaze provocatively stirring things up.
"Anyway, I will try my best to face it!" Yu Yuetong raised her head, a determined light flashing in her eyes. "It's better than showing my weakness!"
“How interesting,” Ji Momo’s lips curled up, as if to make up for her lost composure. “Then please continue to argue.”
The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, with all eyes drawn to the standoff, neither side seemingly willing to back down. Just then, a series of hurried footsteps outside broke the suffocating tension—
Several people rushed in, their breaths hurried and their faces grave, breaking the escalating argument.
In an instant, everyone's attention was drawn to that group of people.
Qin Yu's expression grew increasingly serious, his eyes like sharp blades, fixed on Ji Momo, as if he were about to explode with anger. Then, he turned and drifted towards Yu Yuetong, as if offering her support with his eyes.
"Listen, Ji Momo, stop interrupting." Qin Yu spoke like an enraged lion, his tone full of warning. "My relationship with Yu Yuetong is none of your business."
Yu Yuetong felt Qin Yu's intense protectiveness, which warmed her heart, but she was also overwhelmed by the sudden turn of events. Her hands trembled slightly, and the unease in her heart intensified. She had thought she could control this situation, but now she realized that she was nothing more than a pawn.
"You think I'm judging? I'm just stating the facts." Ji Momo's smile was like a blooming flower, yet it carried a hint of coldness. "If you hadn't acted so incompetent today, perhaps I would have been more convinced."
"Shut up!" Qin Yu had lost his patience. He gritted his teeth inwardly, an indescribable anger churning in his chest, making him want to forcefully throw this female supporting character away.
Yu Yuetong didn't want to indulge in lustful thoughts in bed any longer. She sighed softly and said slowly, "Actually, I really hope that Ji Momo's words make sense. However, her accusations have nothing to do with me."
The air in the room seemed to freeze instantly. Ji Momo's smile shattered the moment Yu Yuetong spoke. "What kind of nonsense is that?"
“What do you mean? I don’t want to argue with you, I don’t want to get myself involved in this game,” Yu Yuetong looked directly at Ji Momo, trying to suppress her emotions. “I’m just saying that I’m here to find a place that belongs to me.”
"You don't deserve it at all!" Ji Momo shouted, her face instantly turning gloomy.
"These days, what's the point of talking about being a good match? You should ask yourself that." Qin Yu retorted coldly, seemingly standing up for Yu Yuetong. Just then, several bodyguards dressed in black entered the room, their faces serious, interrupting the argument that was about to escalate.
"Young Master Qin, the old master wants to see you. He has something important to discuss." Zhao Tao, Qin Yu's assistant, had a serious expression and his tone revealed a hint of urgency.
"What is it?" Qin Yu immediately withdrew his contempt for Ji Momo, turned around and strode forward, ignoring Yu Yuetong who was still standing there.
"It involves Yu Yuetong." Zhao Tao's voice was low, as if he needed to suppress what he was about to say.
"Wait!" Yu Yuetong suddenly stopped, a wave of unease washing over her. She felt an indescribable sense of unease and grabbed Qin Yu's hand, unconsciously increasing the pressure.
Qin Yu was slightly startled, a hint of surprise flashing across his face. "What's wrong?"
Yu Yuetong looked at him with a firm gaze: "You can't let these people influence us. I don't want to be led by the nose anymore."
