The carefree sixth prince, my father respectfully invites me to ascend the throne.

Chapter 304 I can’t help myself

"Mu Yan, this is not up to you!"

Mu Muyan's heart skipped a beat. She timidly raised her head and saw the man's handsome face. Her heart pounded even harder. A gentle smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes were tender: "Ling'er, are you blaming me? I'm only doing this for your own good."

“You don’t need to say anything more,” Yang Ling said coldly to Mu Muyan. “Just announce that I, Yang Ling, would rather have none than something of poor quality!”

Mu Muyan's face turned deathly pale, her eyes reddened, and she looked extremely aggrieved: "Ling'er, you don't believe me?"

"Mu Yan!"

Mu Jingchen frowned and gave a stern rebuke.

However, Mu Muyan seemed to have suffered a great blow. She swayed twice and fainted in Yang Ling's arms.

The man's face was gloomy. He stared coldly at Yang Ling, his voice chilling: "Ling'er, this marriage was arranged by your grandmother. We have no right to interfere."

Mu Jingchen is the only son of the Yang family. He cannot abandon his wife and daughters and leave, otherwise he will surely be punished according to the clan rules.

But this kind of thing can only be left for Yang Ling to solve on her own.

"Yang Ling, you must remember your choice. If you remain obstinate, even the Mu family cannot protect you!"

After saying this, Mu Jingchen turned and left.

Mu Muyan lay on Yang Ling's chest and cried out softly.

"Ling'er, I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled! Why did you fall for Mu Ya instead of me? We're both just as good."

Yang Ling lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on Mu Muyan's tear-streaked face. He reached out and wiped away the tear tracks on Mu Muyan's cheeks, smiling gently: "Silly girl, I have never liked Mu Ya from beginning to end, don't overthink it."

He simply felt that Muya was a better match for him.

This woman is intelligent, sensible, obedient, and well-behaved—the kind of wife he wanted.

“But…” Mu Muyan bit her thin lips tightly, “I look exactly like Mu Ya, and she’s a good-for-nothing. How can you not be tempted?”

Yang Ling rubbed Mu Muyan's head: "Muyan, don't overthink it. In my heart, you have nothing to do with Mu Ya. My wife is only you."

His tone was firm, carrying a reassuring strength.

"Ling'er, I will not give up. You are mine, and you can only belong to me." Mu Muyan raised her eyes, a mad light flashing in them.

Mu Ya, it wasn't enough that you caused her to be kicked out of the Mu family, you also had to steal her fiancé.

Since you are so ruthless, don't blame her for being impolite to you!

“Ling’er,” Mu Muyan pulled Yang Ling down to sit, her eyes filled with tears, “Don’t worry, I will help you complete the wedding and make Mu Ya leave willingly. You are mine, and no one can take you away.”

Yang Ling's expression gradually warmed.

"Mu Yan, thank you."

Mu Muyan smiled purely and beautifully: "Ling'er, you don't need to thank me. Do we need to say thank you? We will always be one."

Mu Ya stood outside the door, taking in all the conversation inside; her face turned pale.

For the past two years, the Mu family has been exploiting her, and every time she tried to ask her father and mother for help, she was refused.

However, she never intended to kill Mu Muyan.

Even though Mu Muyan wasn't her sister, she still couldn't bear to do it.

Over the years, Mu Muyan has taken good care of her, how could she bear to hurt her in the slightest?

"Muya".

Suddenly, a soft call came, startling Mu Ya, who turned around in surprise.

She spotted the spirited young girl standing in the courtyard at a glance.

The girl was slender with delicate features, fair and translucent skin, and bright, piercing eyes, as beautiful as obsidian.

A faint smile played on her lips as she walked towards Muya.

"Yun Yao."

As Yang Ling watched Yun Yao walk up to Mu Ya, she frowned slightly. Just as she was about to speak to stop her, Yun Yao spoke first.

“Muya,” she smiled faintly, “I know you don’t want to marry Young Master Yang, but he is deeply in love with you, and he lost his arm to save you. You two are destined to be together, so…”

"I will not agree!" Mu Ya shouted coldly.

"you……"

Yun Yao was stunned, seemingly not expecting Mu Ya to suddenly resist, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

"Muya, I'm doing this for your own good. If you don't want to marry me, that's fine, but why refuse?"

Mu Ya sneered, "My marriage is my own decision, and it's none of anyone else's business to interfere!"

"Mu Ya!" Yun Yao's face darkened. "Do you know how powerful the Yang family is? If you don't want to marry into the Yang family, are you just waiting to be expelled?"

"Expel them?" Mu Ya curled her lips in sarcasm. "I disdain marrying someone from the Yang family; they are not worthy of me!"

She had long disliked these self-righteous scions of noble families, but unfortunately, she was just an adopted daughter of the Mu family and could not escape their constraints.

Now, she will not allow Yang Ling to stay in the Yang family any longer.

Yun Yao's expression changed, and she said angrily, "Mu Ya, you really don't know what's good for you. Do you think the Mu family is your home? Everything here belongs to the Yang family. You want to move out of the Mu family? You're just dreaming!"

"Really?" Mu Ya gently stroked her lower abdomen, her eyes slightly narrowed. "You said the same thing back then, and what happened?"

She ignored Yun Yao and strode towards the room, slamming the door shut and leaving Yun Yao outside.

Yun Yao stomped her foot in anger, glaring fiercely at Mu Ya's retreating figure: "Mu Ya, one day you will pay a heavy price for your current attitude!"

"Second Miss," the maid walked up to Yun Yao and asked in confusion, "what were you trying to say just now?"

Yun Yao composed herself and said, "It's nothing. I'll go back first, lest the old man find out that I didn't do as instructed. When you get back, tell my father that I've already talked to Mu Ya and tried to persuade her, but she still won't budge."

"Yes, second lady."

The maid bowed her head respectfully.

Yun Yao didn't say another word, turned around and walked quickly out of the mansion.

She came here specifically to find Mu Ya today, just to persuade Mu Ya to agree to marry Yang Ling.

Unfortunately, Mu Ya was ungrateful and insisted on forcing the Mu family to break off the engagement for her, saying that the Yang family was not worthy of having such a beautiful granddaughter-in-law as her.

Her words enraged the old man, who then confined her to the courtyard, forbidding her from stepping out.

but……

Even so, Yun Yao still came to find Mu Ya.

Because Mu Ya is too stubborn, if she doesn't persuade Mu Ya, she can still cause chaos in the entire Mu family after Yang Ling marries her.

Muya is her best friend, and she won't allow anyone to ruin their friendship!

Mu Ya returned to her room and saw the man in the blue robe sitting at the table drinking tea. She was taken aback for a moment: "Yang Ling, I..."

"Muya," Yang Ling tapped her fingers on the table, "I don't know when our wedding date is set. You should go back and prepare."
