Zhao Hao was stunned. He didn't expect to be questioned directly as soon as he came up.
Zheng Zhiqian, who was standing by, did not expect that his cousin would speak like this, and immediately looked at Zhao Hao.
"Brother Hao..."
Zhao Hao raised his hand and stopped Zheng Zhiqian from speaking.
He looked at the woman in front of him and sized her up with interest.
The woman also looked straight at him.
The two of them just looked at each other, and no one spoke.
After watching for about half a minute, Zheng Zhiqian couldn't bear it anymore and coughed loudly.
Zhao Hao also reacted and realized that something was wrong, so he immediately walked over to the stool next to him and sat down.
Then, he took the wine glass and poured himself a glass of wine.
Immediately, he waved to the two of them and said, "Sit down and talk."
Hearing this, Zheng Zhiqian quickly smiled and said, "Yes, yes, sister, let's sit down and eat while we talk."
Having said that, he returned to his seat and motioned for his cousin to sit down.
Lu Ying sat down slowly and her eyes fell on Zhao Hao again.
Zhao Hao smiled softly, then said calmly: "Today, I shouldn't be here..."
"However, this is related to my brother's lifelong event, so I still showed up here."
Zhao Hao picked up the wine glass, tilted his head back and took a sip.
"Miss Lu, I'm sure you understand Zhiqian's intentions, so let's be frank."
"Do you have such thoughts about Zhiqian?"
"If there is, then you should stay together. As for the pressure from your family, it is nothing."
"Leave it all to me."
"If you don't have that intention, Miss Lu has also said it clearly, and I, your brother, will not think about it anymore."
"Miss Lu, please give me a straightforward answer!"
After hearing what Zhao Hao said, Zheng Zhiqian completely lost his normal active thinking ability.
His face turned red and his breathing became rapid. He wanted to speak up to stop Zhao Hao, but Zhao Hao glared back at him.
It felt like there were millions of ants crawling on my body.
I can't even sit still.
By the time Zhao Hao finished speaking, he was completely tortured to the point of exhaustion. His eyes fell directly on his cousin Lu Ying sitting opposite him.
There was still no extra expression on Lu Ying's face, and her eyes were looking straight at Zhao Hao.
After looking at it for a while, he glanced at Zheng Zhiqian again and said coldly: "I thought you had made great progress in the past few years outside."
"I didn't expect you to be so useless!"
Then he looked at Zhao Hao and said, "Mr. Zhao has done a great job!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the private room.
Seeing this, Zhao Hao and Zheng Zhiqian looked at each other.
Zheng Zhiqian took a deep breath and asked quickly, "Brother Hao, did you do something wrong?"
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes immediately and said unhappily, "What are you still standing there for?"
"Hurry up and catch up!"
Zheng Zhiqian said with a bitter face: "But...what should I say if I catch up with him?"
Zhao Hao slapped his forehead speechlessly: "Old Zheng, people like you shouldn't have a wife, do you understand?"
Zheng Zhiqian hurriedly said: "Brother Hao, stop playing dumb with your brother and tell me what to do!"
Zhao Hao took a deep breath, handed over a pot of wine and said, "Come and drink all the wine, then I'll tell you!"
Zheng Zhiqian's eyes widened immediately: "Brother Hao, it's already this time, just get to the point!"
Zhao Hao narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you going to drink or not?"
Zheng Zhiqian can drink a bit, but this wine jug is not small.
He also felt dizzy watching it.
However, after taking a deep breath, he made up his mind, closed his eyes and drank it down.
Not even a pause.
As soon as I finished drinking, I started coughing violently.
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Okay, let's go after him!"
Zheng Zhiqian was startled and said quickly: "But..."
Zhao Hao said, "You don't have to say anything. Just chase him and say whatever is on your mind."
"Say whatever you think!"
Zheng Zhiqian was a little confused and wanted to speak, but Zhao Hao said, "If you don't go now, you won't be able to catch up!"
Zheng Zhiqian was speechless for a while, then turned around and ran out quickly.
Looking at his figure running away, Zhao Hao shook his head speechlessly.
This boy originally had a very high IQ, but in front of this cousin, it dropped to zero.
Zhao Hao also walked out of the private room and returned to the study, and Yongning immediately asked.
Zhao Hao said, "It should be successful. This woman must have some romantic feelings for Old Zheng."
"Don't mention it, this woman is quite a character. I was questioned as soon as I got there!"
The three of them ate while talking, and they didn't finish until it was almost dark. The two little ones fell asleep.
Zhao Haocai then sent the two girls back to the princess's mansion by car.
I was on the first floor, continuing to wait for Zheng Zhiqian to come back.
Sure enough, just as he expected, Zheng Zhiqian came again at around nine o'clock in the evening.
The whole person was so excited that he couldn't stand it.
"Hao, Brother Hao...I succeeded. My cousin has me in her heart!"
As he spoke, his face darkened again.
"But my cousin told me that our family would not agree to the two of us being together."
"So, Brother Hao, I still need your help with this matter..."
Seeing his face which was both indescribably excited and ugly and gloomy, Zhao Hao was speechless.
"Is the resistance mainly in the Lu family, or in your own family?"
"Both!" Zheng Zhiqian said, "It's mainly the Lu family. They are determined to use my cousin to form a marriage alliance in order to continue to increase the Lu family's influence in the Imperial Capital."
"We, the Zheng family, do not have such strength."
"As for our family, the only resistance is from Auntie."
"You also know that Auntie has looked down on me since I was a child."
"Now that I have some say, I am about to step on her son, and he hates me even more."
"Actually, my aunt wants my eldest brother to marry my cousin."
"But after she proposed it, the Lu family rejected it."
"If it were me now, I'd be surprised if she would agree to it!"
Zhao Hao nodded: "So that's what happened."
After thinking for a while, Zhao Hao said, "How about this, I'll go visit the Lu family with you first?"
"See if they give me face?"
Zheng Zhiqian shook his head and said, "I'm afraid... it's difficult."
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "After all, I am also a duke, and everyone knows that I am His Majesty's beloved minister. I shouldn't be so embarrassed, right?"
"What's more, the reason why the Lu family is what it is today is because of my dry wine."
Zheng Zhiqian thought about it and it seemed to be the case, so he nodded immediately.
"Okay then, let's go there tomorrow!"
Zhao Hao said, "What tomorrow? Let's go today. Let's go now!"
"I have prepared everything. You hold the box."
Zheng Zhiqian quickly asked: "Brother Hao, what is this?"
Zhao Hao said: "A gift, a set of top-quality porcelain."
Zheng Zhiqian said: "Brother Hao, I asked you to prepare a gift. I really..."
