"Really?" asked the old lady.
Bai Huiru nodded guiltily, "Really."
"How dare you say that!" The old lady smashed the teacup beside her, her face full of anger, "Xia Jinjun rejected the prime minister's daughter before, why don't you look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are? Why is he obsessed with you?"
The old lady laughed angrily, "Why, are you still going to say that the man from the Xia family knew the identity of the princess all along?"
Bai Huiru, who was exposed, didn't dare to say anything. She just glanced at her daughter, hoping that Lu Seyan would help her out.
"Grandma, let me tell you."
The old lady glanced at Bai Huiru, then turned to look at Lu Seyan, "Go ahead."
Lu Seyan knew that the old lady was able to support such a large mansion, raise her father, and keep the mansion standing, which was definitely not something that could be fooled easily.
Her mother's little tricks were seen through at once in front of the old lady. She was just being too clever.
Lu Seyan did not hide anything and told the truth.
The old lady sneered, "Why are you still thinking about renewing your relationship with that man? Don't you see what kind of character you have? If you hadn't given birth to a pretty good daughter, you would never have been able to step into this mansion in your lifetime."
"Yes, old lady, I dare not have such thoughts."
"I don't care what you think, but the reputation of our mansion is important. If you dare to mess around, I will not only punish you, but also think about your daughter. She is already worse off than others because she has a mother like you. Do you still want to hold her back?"
Bai Huiru's eyes were filled with tears, and she cried as if her father had died.
"Grandmother, even though we had a quarrel with the princess, we will shoulder the responsibility and will never bring trouble to the Marquis's residence."
The old lady sneered, "Not to implicate the Hou Mansion? That's not necessary. After all, you belong to the Hou Mansion. I don't think she wants to make a fuss. I just want to ask for clarification so that I won't be unclear in the future."
"We are not the same kind of people."
Lu Seyan looked at the old lady.
"I'm afraid Princess Yi Yang will support Wen Heng right now. After all, it's all thanks to Wen Heng that she was able to recognize her daughter. Princess Yi Yang is a person who values friendship the most. She will always repay this favor."
"And you..." The old lady looked at Lu Seyan, "You should know that our Hou Mansion is close to the prince, and the prince also favors you."
"You should know your responsibilities."
"Yes, grandma!" Lu Seyan did not refute, but she was thinking about how to get rid of the prince.
She would never enter the Prince's Mansion.
But today, I saw the Eighth Prince and Xia Zhiliao, and they seemed very familiar to each other.
She sighed.
…
After Xia Zhiliao returned, he was also thinking about Wen Yan's abnormal behavior today.
Getting in trouble with the villain boss was already enough for her, but now her life has changed drastically, of course, for the better.
But it is hard to say whether the wealth and prosperity in front of us is temporary or lasting.
Here comes another male protagonist. If he really has any entanglement with her, isn’t he waiting to be killed?
She thought she was not shrewd enough and was far inferior to the heroine in the novel who was always cautious and cunning.
Although it is true that he has a backer now, no matter how powerful the backer is, he can't beat the protagonist, right?
Therefore, she still plans to stay away from the male and female protagonists.
In the future, try to avoid showing up in places where they are present as much as possible.
Jumping around freely out of their sight.
In the following days, Xia Zhiliao's life was really good, but as a little girl, all those miscellaneous social engagements were nothing to her.
She was waiting for her family to come to Beijing for a family reunion.
Wen Heng had come to the mansion several times, and Xia Zhiliao had accepted her fate. Even if she tried to avoid him, it would be useless because everyone knew that he had a close relationship with the princess's mansion.
She just hoped that this person could find a way to stop the villain from fighting for the throne.
But right now, it seems that he and the male protagonist have a good relationship, at least they are not enemies. Who knows, if this continues, the two of them may even become good brothers.
Xia Zhiliao didn't want to get close to Wen Yan, so if she wanted to know what Wen Yan was doing, she could only go through Wen Heng.
So, when she asked again this time, Wen Heng was unhappy.
"You care about him so much, let him come tomorrow."
"No, we can't let him come." Xia Zhi shook his head.
"Why?" Wen Heng asked in a deep voice.
He knew the little girl wouldn't say it directly, but he still knew the answer.
[I asked about him because I was worried about you.]
Wen Heng sat up straight. Is she concerned about him?
[What are you looking at? If you die, I will be implicated, and the entire princess's mansion will be in trouble.]
Even though it was ultimately for himself, Wen Heng felt that she also cared about him.
[If you have a good relationship with Wen Heng and don't fight with him for the throne, who knows, he might not kill you for the sake of our friendship when he becomes emperor.]
Wen Heng doesn't like the feeling of having his fate controlled by others.
"I mean, I don't care about him. I was just asking casually."
Wen Heng curled his lips and smiled, "Xia Zhiliao, do you think Wen Yan is better than me?"
[Of course, is there any need to say more? But... you died because of Lu Seyan, but you and Lu Seyan are not on good terms now, so it's hard to say.]
Wen Heng was somewhat satisfied after hearing this. Lu Seyan was not the one who saved him, so why should he get close to her?
Even if it is, just repay it, there is no need to sacrifice your life.
"Brother Wen Heng, how are you and Wen Yan doing now? I think he's okay, what do you think?"
Wen Heng knew what she was worried about. "It's not that good, but we're not enemies either. We're both people who are not valued."
[That's different. I'm the focus of your cultivation, but that's all an illusion. But you... ah... I really don't love you. ]
"I also think it's unnecessary. What do you think?"
"You have a lot to worry about as a little girl, but there are some things you should just leave alone."
[I don’t want to care about it, but now this matter is tied to me. ]
[You probably don't know yet? The emperor was testing my grandmother and wanted me to marry Wen Yan. How old am I?]
Wen Heng frowned. How could this happen?
Xia Zhiliao didn't know what he was thinking, but she saw that he was frowning and was very confused. Did she say something wrong?
"What's wrong with you? More friends mean more paths, which is always better than more enemies, don't you think?"
Wen Yan looked at her and said, "Nothing, you are right, I will consider it."
"It's not something we should consider, it's a must. What's the point of arguing about it?"
[What's so good about being an emperor? It's not as comfortable as being an idle prince! ]
Xia Zhiliao sighed, "Brother Wen Heng, what do you think?"
Wen Heng knew what the little girl meant, and also knew that she was doing it for his own good.
But some things are not as simple as she thought.
"I think... you are right."
Just when Xia Zhiliao was about to cheer, he added: "But you are not them."
