Chapter 1259
Coming out of the bathroom, Leng Qianxue simply tidied up, changed into a champagne-coloured suit and took Leng Bingliao to the study.
There were many attendants waiting outside the study and people standing on the stairs, so they were probably going out in a few minutes.
Louis came from the opposite corridor and met Leng Qianxue face to face. He took Leng Qianxue’s hand and whispered, “Qianxue, I just found out that they have told daddy and mummy about that day, if they give you a hard time, don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”
Leng Qianxue looked at Louis with mixed feelings, he didn’t know yet that his parents had already upset her yesterday and she had coped with it.
I thought I was calling her over today to count these things and worry about her being aggravated ……
Leng Qianxue was grateful for his deep affection and maintenance, and the more this happened, the more she didn’t know how to tell the truth.
“And ah, many important guests are coming today, later on daddy mommy and me are going to greet the guests, they should discuss with you about the wedding tomorrow, if something is said that makes you unhappy, don’t take it to heart, I will handle it.”
Louis was full of thoughts for Leng Qianxue and was worried that her brother wouldn’t be able to come and that her parents would upset her by saying something harsh, so he even made mental preconceptions with her in advance.
His kindness made Leng Qianxue feel a little ashamed in her heart, and she felt more and more that her wrong decision at the beginning had harmed him ……
At the same time, she also felt that she could not continue to be wrong.
“Louis, actually ……” Leng Qianxue was about to speak when the door to the room opened and Ivy’s voice came from inside, “Little Duke, Miss Leng, the old Duke invites you in!”
Leng Qianxue swallowed back the words that were on her lips and turned to walk into the room.
Louis took her by the waist and carefully guarded her.
In the study, the old duke and the duchess were already sitting on the sofa, dressed in full regalia.
The two were frowning and their faces were very grave. They were talking in low voices, but when they saw Leng Qianxue and Louis enter, they immediately stopped talking and raised their eyes to look at them.
“Daddy, mummy ……” Louis greeted respectfully.
“Lord Duke, Madam.” Leng Qianxue bowed to them as well.
“Have a seat.” The old duke was quite easy-going.
“Louis, you sit over here.” The duchess pointed to the sofa next to her.
“Mummy ……” Louis was about to say something when the old duke gave a wink and he just had to sit over.
Leng Qianxue sat down on the sofa opposite them, facing the family in front of her, feeling like a criminal who was about to be interrogated.
“Did you get in touch with your brother?” The old duke asked bluntly.
“No.” Leng Qianxue replied calmly, “Please speak directly if the Duke has any orders.”
Behind her, Leng Bing’s hand tugging on her carry bag tightened, if the old duke and duchess continued to press for marriage or make things difficult for Leng Qianxue against Night Zhen Ting, they would have to take out that video to fight back.
The old duke did not rush to make a statement, but lifted the coffee in front of him and elegantly sipped it.
“This marriage is not only a matter for the two of you and Louis, it is a matter for Leng and the Louis family.” The duchess spoke arrogantly, “Mr. L is an important person, the wedding can’t go ahead if he’s not there ……”
After a pause, the duchess continued, “Therefore, we have decided to postpone the wedding until Mr. L gets in touch and then reschedule the date.”
Hearing these words, Leng Bing Leng Mo both froze.
Leng Qianxue was also a little surprised, she thought they were here to force the wedding, but she didn’t expect them to actually take the initiative to delay the wedding ……
However, Leng Qianxue understood that the old duke and the duchess did not want to take the risk, after all, the royal marriage was a matter of great importance, and one hair would move the whole body.
If L really loses, then they won’t want Leng Qianxue as their daughter-in-law ……
Chapter 1260
“No.” Louis stood up excitedly, “I don’t agree to delay the wedding, we said we’d get married tomorrow, tomorrow, and now the guests are here, why the sudden delay?”
“Shut up.” The duchess shouted angrily, “We have already decided, there is no room for you to object.”
“Daddy!!!” Louis was anxious, “It doesn’t matter if L can’t attend, it doesn’t affect the wedding, we’ll just make up another ceremony later when he arrives ……”
“All right.” The old duke spoke sternly, “This wedding is not about the two of you, it’s about the face of the royal family and the safety of the Louis family, you can’t just do whatever you want.”
“That’s right.” The Duchess stood up, “Now we have to go to a press conference to announce the delay in the wedding and to make proper arrangements for the dignitaries who have arrived in Paris. As for you ……”
The duchess turned her eyes to look at Leng Qianxue and said coldly and arrogantly-
“During this period, you will stay at home, the servants will still hold and take care of you like a princess, you can always mention anything you need to Ivy, she will try her best to satisfy you. However, you are not to leave the castle.”
“Is this Madam’s way of putting me under house arrest?” Leng Qianxue curled her lips into a smile, “Not going to let me out until my brother shows up, are you?”
“Think what you like.” The duchess said disdainfully, “I haven’t settled the score with you for your scandalous affair with Night Zhen Ting, I’m doing this for the sake of both families’ face and reputation, even if your brother asks after it later, I’m still right.”
“Qianxue ……” the old duke’s tone was much gentler, “we are also worried about your safety, so that’s why we made this arrangement, the castle is very big, if you are bored, you can swim and read a book, just last a few days. ”
The two of them sang a white face and a black face, both soft and hard, there was no way for Leng Qianxue to refute.
“Good.” Leng Qianxue smiled faintly, “It’s hard for the two of you!”
“That’s right.” The old duke nodded in satisfaction, “Rest well.”
Then, he took the lead and walked out ……
The duchess gave Leng Qianxue a cold look and gave a wink to Ivy before pulling Louis out, “Let’s go.”
“Mummy ……” Louis didn’t want to go and looked back at Leng Qianxue, “Qianxue ……”
Leng Qianxue lowered her eyes and didn’t say a word.
When the three of them had gone, Ivy came over and said respectfully, “Miss Leng, let me take you back to your room to rest.”
“I want to go out for a walk.”
Leng Qianxue looked outside, the house was guarded by many more soldiers and there were rows of them standing in the corridor.
“There are reporters watching outside and some guests might come, it’s quite chaotic, for your safety’s sake, you’d better go back to your room and rest.”
As Ivy spoke, two waitresses came forward, guarding Leng Qianxue with one left and one right.
Obviously, apart from her room, Leng Qianxue could not go anywhere.
“What does that mean? Is this to put our Miss Leng under house arrest?” Leng Mo questioned in annoyance.
“We are also trying to protect Miss Leng.” Ai Wei explained with his head bowed.
“You ……”
“It’s really hard work.”
Leng Qianxue gave Ai Wei a deep look and turned around to walk out of the study.
Ai Wei immediately followed behind, “Miss Leng, I’ll ask the users to send breakfast to the room, do you think it’s okay?”
“Send five of them, I’ll eat with my four bodyguards.” Leng Qianxue was worried that they were treating Leng Bing and the girls poorly.
“Okay.” Ai Wei immediately went to make arrangements.
When Leng Qianxue returned to her room, Leng Mo couldn’t help but ask, “Miss Leng, why didn’t you rise to the occasion just now? Take out the video of Duke Louis and that little b*tch and fling it in those two old things’ faces?”
“Now we’re under restraint, even if we take things out, what can we do?” Leng Qianxue asked rhetorically, “Big deal, Emile gets kicked out, Louis gets a lecture, I should be under house arrest, still under house arrest all the same.”
