Chapter 291

For some reason, Li Zhiwei felt that Cheng Qingli's eyes seemed to have some ill intentions.

Thinking of Xu Qingshi's wariness towards her, Li Zhiwei felt...

Li Zhiwei felt that she and her friend were not close enough to go on trips together.

Besides, the person I wanted to partner with for this business was recommended by Xu Heming.

Regardless of whether this person is reliable or not, she felt that she should go through the process with her.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiwei coughed lightly before looking at Cheng Qingli and saying, "Miss Cheng, I actually have something I want to discuss with you today."

After Li Zhiwei finished speaking, she stared at Cheng Qingli.

Is Cheng Qingli pretty?

She was undoubtedly beautiful. Cheng Qingli bore a resemblance to the Empress. If the Empress weren't beautiful, she wouldn't have been chosen to enter the palace as Empress.

However, Cheng Qingli was not as dignified and poised as the Empress, and her personality was more unconventional.

However, she couldn't understand why her younger sister, Cheng Qingli, was like a tomboy, compared to the Empress, who was such a dignified noblewoman.

Today, if I hadn't been so observant, I would probably have thought that Cheng Qingli was a man.

"What is it?" Cheng Qingli looked at Li Zhiwei with a wary expression, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

She knew that her family was planning to find her a husband recently.

However, she looked down on none of the scions of prominent families in the capital.

She didn't understand why her parents insisted on her getting married.

Marrying into those aristocratic families meant she would be confined to the backyard to be a wife and mother.

This is something she doesn't want to do.

However, she did not expect that her family would actually persuade Prince An to act as the persuader.

What surprised her even more was that Prince An actually sent his fiancée to persuade her.

Could it be that they want to lower their guard by using a new face?

Thinking about this, Cheng Qingli felt that she had guessed their motives.

But, should we send Xu Heming?

Who is that man?

Surely they wouldn't want to marry Xu Heming themselves, would they?

Thinking of this, Cheng Qingli looked at Li Zhiwei again.

She came to persuade her on behalf of her husband?

"You're not trying to persuade me to become Prince An's concubine, are you?" Cheng Qingli asked Li Zhiwei with some surprise.

I thought to myself, doesn't this female merchant have any thoughts of her own?

She had barely stepped inside when she started persuading the other women to marry her future husband.

Moreover, her status was much higher than Li Zhiwei's. If she were to marry into the Prince An's family, she would only be the principal wife, while Li Zhiwei would only be destined to be a concubine.

"You want to marry Prince An?"

Li Zhiwei looked at Cheng Qingli with some surprise, thinking, could it be that Xu Qingshi was right?

Xu Heming treated her differently; he wanted to marry her and bring her back to the Prince An's mansion.
