34 Messing with Chun Maora Plan

The next day, Jun Hua stayed within her quarter peacefully. She kept learning embroidery with Madam Xie helping on her side. Her action was normal and ordinary people wouldn't suspect that she devised a plan today when Lin Yuan met with Jo Han. When the right time came to act, she would make a move.

Chun Maora was happy because her husband agreed with her plan. Lin Tang was not familiar with rumors since he was a busy man. All he wanted was more connections – in power and wealth. Since the Jo family was quite rich, he wouldn't really care about anything else.

That morning, the Lin family was buzzing in preparation for the arrival of Jo Han and his father to discuss marriage. Chun Maora kept their servants extremely busy the whole morning to make the best preparation.

"Lin San, do you want to see with your sister first?"

Lin San, who had been playing with her brush, smiled sweetly. She had seen Lin Yuan yesterday looking highly depressed. There was still some time before the Jo family arrived, she decided to make a quick visit and see her condition.

"Of course mother, I will go there first."

Chun Maora left, while Lin San walked towards Lin Yuan's quarter. Lin San could see that the atmosphere there was gloomy but she didn't care and continued to walk as if everything was like usual.

"Miss, second Miss has come."

Second Miss was a title referring to Lin San as she was the second daughter of the Lin family. Lin Yuan raised her head, devoid of expression. Jin Pun had been preparing her with exquisite clothes and delicate makeup to hide any traces of tears. Although Lin Yuan's face was still pale, she looked considerably better than yesterday afternoon.

When Lin San came in, she could see that her sister face's was still pale. She smiled softly.

"First sister, how are you?"

Lin Yuan stared at Lin San and suppressed the hatred she was feeling towards her. "I'm fine, Second sister. You don't have to worry."

"Mother said your husband-candidate would arrive soon. Do you want to see him?"

Lin Yuan clenched her fists. Why would she want to see that man? Besides, it was the norm that the bride and groom would not meet each other until the day of their marriage. At most, they could only see each other from afar during the time the groom's family came for a visit.

Lin San smiled brightly, she didn't show that she was looking down on her and merely congratulating her. Lin Yuan had to admit, Lin San's acting was getting better and better but there was no way she would lose out in this aspect too.

"Second sister is joking. How can a man and a woman meet before marriage," Lin Yuan smiled.

Lin San nudged her. "It's alright if it's only from afar. There are a few places where you can see the main hall clearly. Let me accompany you."

Lin Yuan could not reject Lin San and in the end, they just stood in one of the stone pathways. Lin Yuan was able to clearly see that the Jo family was arriving.

A huge carriage was heading towards the Lin family residence. The grandeur of the Jo family was shown and truly reflected the image of a wealthy family. Lin Yuan could see clearly two people coming out of the carriage.

The middle-aged man was a very refined man in contrast to the young man who was truly an eyesore. He was wearing a set of good clothes, but his complexion was not really good. The way he walked was weird and very unstable. Seeing the man from afar, Lin Yuan began to have negative impression of this man. She couldn't imagine herself being with that man at all.

"That young man is most probably your husband candidate, Sister Lin Yuan."

Lin Yuan forced herself to nod. She already knew but she didn't want to admit it. Why couldn't she get a better ending? Lin Yuan calmed herself down. The plan had not taken place yet. It was her only hope to not get married with someone like that man who had just arrived.

Lin Tang and Chun Maora welcomed the two men. Lin Tang's expression stiffened when he saw the young man. Because he was seeing him from up close, he could faintly smell the strong scent of alcohol coming from that man's body. This man was the young master of Jo family? Lin Tang truly wondered how they brought up their offspring.

On the side, Chun Maora also had her complexion paler. The one she had chosen was far worse than the rumors said he was. She didn't realize that this man was also a heavy drinker. The strong smell of wine made her dizzy.

Jo Han's father, Jo Kan, coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment. "Sorry about my son's appearance. We received the news a bit late and he has been drinking with his friends."

"It's normal for men to drink," Lin Tang himself would drink on some occasion.

"We came to discuss the matter about my son's marriage to your first daughter. This news truly brings me happiness," Jo Kan said calmly. Mere happiness was not enough to describe it. Jo Han had already reached 21, but not a single woman was willing to get married to him. Given his bad behavior, Jo Kan believed that no one would ever want to sacrifice their daughter. To his surprise, Lin family extended their hands to ask.

Lin Tang nodded. "Please come inside, then."

Chun Maora could not bear to keep standing near this man anymore and wanted to get herself away from these men, especially the young man. Although there were times when Lin Tang would drink, but he would never drink too much until the alcohol would strongly smell on him.

They have only walked a few steps when Jo Han suddenly stopped on his tracks and pointed to one direction. "Is that your daughter?"

Lin Tang was startled, but then he immediately saw Lin Yuan and Lin San were standing on the stone path. Lin Yuan was clearly on the front while Lin San stood behind her. Lin Tang's brows creased, this girl was truly looking for trouble.

Chun Maora hurriedly nodded. "The girl in the front is your wife candidate."

"That one?" Jo Han stared for a moment, and nodded. "She's not bad."

Chun Maora wanted to rejoice. If Jo Han agreed, then everything would go smoothly according to her arrangements. Jo Han looked around before he stopped again looking at another direction. When Chun Maora saw the man's eyes, she had a bad feeling and sure enough, at the end of his vision was a girl as pretty as a goddess.
