Li Wei took out a tissue and helped Liang Qiushi wipe the tea stains from the corners of his mouth and on his collar.
With just this joke, the serious atmosphere was immediately diluted.
"Aunt Liang, I was just joking... Don't mind it." Li Wei's face felt slightly hot, and she thought that if she had known earlier, she would not have been so naughty.
Liang Qiushi curled his lips slightly, shook his head helplessly, and after cleaning the tea stains, he regained his composure, "It's okay..."
Seeing that she was not angry, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression turned serious. "Aunt Liang, I still say the same thing. As long as I can cure Li Cheng, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"
Liang Qiushi stared at Li Wei with crystal clear eyes, as if he was suppressing some emotion.
After a long moment, she said apologetically, "Hey...good boy...I'm sorry."
Li Wei felt a little guilty.
[Fuck, don't look at me with those apologetic eyes. I'm already the winner, okay?! Hey, I'm so embarrassed. My damn sense of shame...]
"Ahem..." Li Wei coughed dryly and asked tentatively, "Aunt Liang, I have a few questions..."
Liang Qiushi pinched the corner of his eye naturally, regained his composure, and said, "Ask."
"Does Jiang Xue have any family? Also, she and your son are childhood sweethearts. If I play her role, will it be exposed?" Li Wei rubbed her fingers, fearing that something unexpected would happen and affect her upgrade on the battlefield.
Liang Qiushi's fingertips gently slid across the warm wall of the cup. "I've already communicated with the Jiang family's elders in charge. As for Jinzhi and the younger generation of the Jiang family, you don't have to worry about them. Jiang Xue went abroad at the age of sixteen, and it's been four years now. Time can blur many things."
"Furthermore, I will arrange for you to go to England and live with Jiang Xue for a week. You will pick up some of her iconic items and learn her various manners and habits. Then, you will return to China as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family and await your marriage."
[Ah... How long have you been planning this? ]
"Just out of curiosity..." Li Wei couldn't help but wonder, "You said before that Miss Jiang loves your son madly... Then why doesn't she come herself?"
"Her love, hehe..." Liang Qiushi's voice suddenly became clear, and his temperament also became a little colder. "Perhaps she loves herself more than Jinzhi. It's just that she pretends too well."
【This sister is sober! 】
Li Wei sighed.
"Um..." Li Wei asked again, "If I replace her, will she cause trouble?"
Liang Qiushi smiled and said, "We will keep an eye on her..."
"Why did she go abroad?" Li Wei was curious.
"Four years ago, she poisoned her own sister Jiang Yao and almost caused a death. In addition, she caused too much trouble at home, so she was sent away by the Jiang family. It was considered exile." Liang Qiushi replied.
[Ah...this...this...this...]
Li Wei felt that the burden on her shoulders was heavier.
Seeing that Liang Qiushi was still staring at her, obviously waiting for more questions, she thought for a moment and mentioned Li Cheng.
"Can I still see Li Cheng before going to the battlefield?"
Liang Qiushi twirled his fingers, as if pondering something, then nodded affirmatively, "Sure, when you marry into the Gu family, I'll arrange for you to meet privately."
Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief and was about to ask about Li Cheng's condition.
Liang Qiushi had already explained, "As for his illness, before the matter is accomplished, I will arrange for a master to help alleviate it, but it will not be completely cured... Do you understand?"
Li Wei nodded without any extra emotion.
【It's a cash-on-delivery deal, I understand.】
Li Wei was beaten so many times in her previous life that she has lost her innocence!
She knew that there was no love without reason in the world.
Considering Liang Qiushi's status and position, he was still so dignified and polite in front of her, without being harsh or pushy. He was considered a very good person.
Thinking that she would be staying on the front line for a long time in the future and worried that Li Cheng would be left unattended, she couldn't help but make a request.
"Aunt Liang, after Li Cheng recovers, can you take care of him for a while?"
Li Wei originally wanted to ask her to help take care of the child, and then take Li Cheng over when she became successful.
But Liang Qiushi obviously misunderstood...
She looked at Li Wei's innocent and clear eyes, and suddenly she covered her mouth and nose with her fists. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes again, and she looked like she was about to fall. She didn't say a word for a long time.
"Auntie, what's this?" Li Wei was a little confused.
"No way, no way! I'm going to the battlefield for your son! Even if your son isn't here, I'll go myself. But, can't I just help take care of Li Cheng? Why are you being so wronged?"
"It's okay..."
Liang Qiushi raised his hand and subtly wiped his eye sockets:
"Don't worry. After Li Cheng recovers, I will arrange for him to attend the Liang family's school. The Liang family will train him according to the standards of a legitimate young master until he graduates from Wuda University."
"Ah this--!" Li Wei was shocked and realized that she had just misunderstood Liang Qiushi.
[Everything was arranged so well, so why was she crying? However, this sister's arrangement was beyond my expectations.]
I originally thought it was a win-win situation, but now it seems that it is obviously a win-win-win situation!
Of course, Li Wei was the winner.
"Also..." Liang Qiushi continued without waiting for Li Wei to recover:
"To confirm your identity, I've made an agreement with the Jiang family's head. Before you leave for Western Xinjiang, she will give you the first three swords of the Jiang family's unique martial art, 'Nine Swords of Reflecting Moon,' as well as the physical chapter of the 'Treasured Scroll of the Jade Lotus of the Moon.' This is... a small compensation for you."
When Li Wei heard this, the corners of her mouth almost stretched to her ears. If it weren't for her beautiful face, that expression would have been included in the ghost animal emoticon package.
