Chapter 927: Young Master of Guding Castle
Lin Shiyu could only conclude that this Young Master of the Castle was quite casual and flippant.
“Auntie, the Young Master of the Guding Castle will determine his marriage with a dance? This must be a significant affair in your family, and so I won’t interrupt.” Lin Shiyu rejected her courteously. She really did not wish to go as she was not interested at all.
“Shi’shi, don’t you want to be the Young Madam of the Guding Family? You’ve got to know that this Young Master of the Castle is young and handsome and so many young ladies have been dreaming about being Young Madam these three years.”
Lin Shiyu shook her head. “I don’t wish to be the Young Madam.”
Madam Sikong sighed in her heart. This Shi’shi was really devoted and faithful to Ah Sen. Even the possibility of being the Young Madam of the Guding Castle did not appeal to her at all. It would definitely be a huge surprise for her tomorrow!
After all, this party was specially prepared for her!
“hi’shiSikong, even if you don’t wish to be Young Madam, you can still join in the party tomorrow. Alright, that settles it. You rest early tonight, then you’ll attend the party with us tomorrow!” Madam Sikong made the decision for her and left the room.
Lin Shiyu, “…”
…
The next morning. At the party held at the Guding Castle.
Lin Shiyu arrived at the Guding Castle. It was exactly like how she had heard it to be like, an ancient and mysterious castle. Today, the castle was illuminated with bright lights.
Everyone who came to attend this party were influential people who belonged to the upper echelons of the society in Mexico. All the ladies were dressed in beautiful and glamorous outfits.
Lin Shiyu looked around the surroundings. It really resembled a massive audition and the Young Master was going to select his concubine.
“Shi’shi, let’s go in. Old Madam is already inside waiting for us.”
“Alright.”
Madam Sikong held Lin Shiyu’s hand and led her to the hall where the party was held. She instantly captured the attention of everyone in an instant.
Today, Lin Shiyu was wearing the fairy dress adorned with fresh flowers. Her wavy hair was tied up casually and a few strands hung loose by her ravishing face. She was exquisitely beautiful, and she looked like a goddess from heaven.
“Which family does she come from? She has such enchanting looks, and I’ve never seen anyone like her before.”
“Look at what she’s wearing. Her dress is actually custom-made by the seamstress of Guding Castle.”
“Even the famous interior designers in Milan did not have such a high reputation as this seamstress. We wanted so much for this seamstress to custom-make a dress for us, but there’s no way we can do so without the permission of Old Madam and Young Master.”
“Who is this woman? What’s her relationship with the Young Master?”
In an instant, Lin Shiyu had become the topic of conversation amongst all the socialites. It was not hard for Lin Shiyu to see the shock, envy and jealousy in all the ladies’ eyes. But she did not even do anything…
“Shi’shi, is that you?” At this moment, she heard a familiar voice.
Lin Shiyu glanced sideways. It was actually Madam Fu and Fu Rongrong.
“Madam Fu, why are you here?” Lin Shiyu walked forward. Because of Fu Rongrong, her relationship with Madam Fu was not the same as before, but Madam Fu had treated her very well in the past, though their mother-and-daughter ties were somewhat shallow.
Madam Fu’s face was pale. “Shi’shi, do you know that Fu Jingtong has contracted AIDS and has been sent to the AIDS hospital by Qinglun? Old Master called Qinglun in a moment of fury and Qinglun asked Old Master Fu to come here. Old Master Fu is afraid that Qinglun will not let Fu Jingtong go, and so he has brought the both of us over. Old Master wants to take advantage of the many years of care and nurturing that I had devoted to Qinglun.”
So it turned out that so many things had happened.
In these three years, the Fu Family had encountered so many changes and Madam Fu had also aged a lot. Lin Shiyu grasped Madam Fu’s hand and said in a soft voice, “Madam Fu, no matter how the Fu Family is like, I believe that Fu Qinglun will not do anything to you.”
“It’s because of you! If you’re not in the picture, Brother Qinglun would have married me…” Fu Rongrong looked at Lin Shiyu with utter loathing.
“Rongrong, that’s enough!” Madam Fu berated Fu Rongrong furiously. “Even if there was no Shi’shi, Qinglun would never marry you!”
Fu Rongrong’s eyes reddened and her tears fell. Now the Fu Family had collapsed, she was even haunted by that fool’s family. Hasn’t she already been punished enough?
At this moment, Old Master Fu came over in a fit of anger. Fu Qinglun had asked him to come here, but he had not even seen Fu Qinglun yet.
He immediately snorted coldly upon seeing Lin Shiyu. “Lin Shiyu, why are you here? I heard that the Young Master of Guding Castle is going to select Young Madam today. Have you come to enjoy the bustling show too? Don’t be foolish, the Young Master would never be attracted to you!”
Old Master Fu’s voice was very loud. The ladies had already harbored enmity and hatred towards Lin Shiyu, but now everyone looked over. “This lady over here, where are you from? We’ve never seen you before!”
“She’s not from any prestigious family. She’s my granddaughter-in-law. I have two grandsons, and she was married to both of them one after another. She had already been married twice!” Old Master Fu smiled vindictively.
Lin Shiyu curved her red lips. She had suddenly recalled that she had already married twice. If she were to marry again, it would be her third marriage.
Upon hearing Old Master Fu’s words, there was an uproar amongst those ladies—-
“My goodness, she had already married twice and she’s still attending the party. Perhaps she even wants to be the Young Madam of Guding Castle. How shameless!”
“That’s right, how did she even enter here? She’s simply disgracing us and shaming the Young Master!”
“Someone, come and chase this woman out! She should not be here!”…
In a split second, Lin Shiyu had already become the public enemy and all the ladies were attacking her. At this moment, a strict voice could be heard. “Hmph, who is so brazen to bully my Little Shi’shi?”
Everyone quickly made way for Madam Sikong and Old Madam to come out.
Today, Old Madam was wearing a maroon outfit emblazoned with gold. She held her walking stick with one hand, and her cloudy but shrewd eyes landed on everyone hardly. This Old Madam who had been the head of the Guding Family over the past decades could make all the ladies turn pale and bow their heads with her imposing presence.
Old Madam’s gaze landed on Lin Shiyu’s beautiful face. She said gently, “Little Shi’shi, come over here. Come to Grandma!” With that, Old Madam extended her head towards Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu felt warmth in her heart. Even though she did not mind these people’s attacks and defamation, she was still very touched with Old Madam’s protection.
Lin Shiyu walked over and placed her hand in Old Madam’s palm.
Everyone’s expressions changed. Old Madam let Lin Shiyu stand with her and this clearly transmitted a message, loud and clear.
Had Lin Shiyu already been decided internally as Young Madam of the Guding Castle?
