"Princess Yun'an, I truly do not know your identity."
Shi Mianzhi reacted very quickly, and with a "thump!" he knelt directly on the bluestone slab.
Hearing that painful sound, Shi Yuguang couldn't help but feel schadenfreude.
Ouch, that hurts! My knee hurts so much.
[We're not here to catch monsters, so why don't you catch one now?]
【Hahahaha...】
How does it feel to have someone grab the princess by the head?
[Dad, your cerebellum is atrophying at an increasingly rapid pace.]
"……"you……
Shi Mianzhi raised his eyes in anger, but when he saw Li Hongzhao's imposing imperial presence, he had no choice but to lower his head again.
I can't beat them, I can't beat them, sob sob sob...
"I, the princess, accept your engagement and will be Miss Shi Yu's bodyguard from now on."
"If any of you dare to make a move on Miss Shi Yu..."
"Don't blame me for the scimitar at my waist not recognizing anyone!"
"Huh?" Shi Mianzhi blinked in confusion.
Why isn't this happening according to proper procedures?
"Princess, my youngest daughter is just an infant. How can I allow you to protect her?"
"Mind your own business." Li Hongzhao rolled her eyes at Shi Mianzhi.
"In short, anyone who dares to cause trouble for Miss Shi Yu and Madam Shi Yu in the future is causing trouble for me, the Princess."
"There are plenty of empty beds waiting for you deep inside the prison!"
Shi Yu: [Oh, nice!]
[So powerful, I love it.]
This Princess Yun'an is really quite nice.
"But when will she become my bodyguard?" Shi Yu asked in her sweet, childlike voice.
[Having a princess as a bodyguard is cool, but it hurts my wallet to ask me for money.]
No! Yu Yu doesn't want guards, she wants money.
Shi Yu clutched her heart tightly.
Taking money hurts my heart.
It hurts so much!
“I don’t want your money.” Li Hongzhao glanced at Shi Yu’s diaper.
Just give her lots of virgin urine to ward off evil spirits.
"This princess cannot stand seeing people being bullied, so I will do this as a form of voluntary labor."
Shi Yu: [Oh dear, you scared me!]
I almost lost all my money.
It's great that it doesn't cost money; I'll take advantage of any freebie I can get.
Hehehe...
Once the imperial city patrol team and Li Hongzhao had left, Shi Mian stepped forward and glared fiercely at He Qiuniang.
How did you two come to know Princess Yun'an?
Shi Yu: [What are you staring at?]
[With those squinty eyes, you still want to compare sizes with others?]
How we met Princess Yun'an is none of your business.
[But you, you scumbag dad, have a murder charge against you, what are you doing acting so carefree?]
[They might be back in there in the blink of an eye.]
"..." Hoo hoo hoo...
Shi Mianzhi was in a bad mood.
"If I were you, I would throw her away as soon as possible to avoid getting into trouble."
"There's no need for you to trouble yourself with that, sir." He Qiuniang hugged her baby daughter tightly.
"We've been husband and wife. If you really care about your reputation, then divorce me."
"I'll take all the children with me, and I absolutely won't hinder your future or your wonderful life with your loved ones."
Shi Mianzhi said, "It's impossible to get rid of it so easily."
"As long as I don't agree to a divorce, I can hold you back for the rest of your life."
"You're the daughter of a merchant, and you expect them to follow you and start from scratch again?"
"You are such a good mother."
“That’s still better than being harmed by you and Wei Yanyan,” He Qiuniang retorted logically.
"If you don't want a divorce, we can just wait it out."
"Anyway, my dowry money is for my children, and I won't give you a single penny."
He Qiuniang finally broke off all pretense of civility.
She had lost all affection for Shi Mianzhi the moment he tried to harm her child.
"We'll see, you'll definitely come back begging me."
"Hmph!" Shi Mianzhi snorted coldly and turned to go next door.
[Mother's rebuttal was excellent.]
[This is how you should act whenever you encounter a jerk dad.]
Shi Yu's sweet voice was gratified.
[Gua66, didn't you say last time that your scumbag dad's cousin's brain injury was caused by a fall and could be treated?]
[If he's cured, do you think his scumbag father's cousin will want to kill this cousin who slept with his wife and lied to him about being a gatekeeper?]
He Qiuniang and her four children's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.
That's a great idea! Let's do it that way!
Shi Mianzhi returned to the next room and spoke directly to his subordinates.
"He Qiu Niang's two older brothers seem to be bidding for Lai Fu Lou recently."
"Think of a way, go to the auction, I'll figure out how to get the money."
"We absolutely cannot let them succeed."
As Shi Mianzhi said this, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes.
"I think He Qiuniang has been an official's wife for too long and has forgotten what it means for the common people not to fight against officials."
"No matter how rich the He family is, I can destroy their empire built up over many years with just one move."
“Mianzhi, the servants’ monthly allowance hasn’t been paid yet!” Gu Caiwei reminded him from beside him.
"I still have two children, and I haven't bought anything I wanted this month."
As soon as Gu Caiwei spoke, Shi Mianzhi felt a pang of heartache.
This is the destructive power of a beautiful woman and a cherished memory.
"Buy it, I'll get the money."
"Where are you going to get the money? Don't even think about my dowry money anymore," Wei Yanyan warned.
“I’m not as foolish as He Qiuniang, who would pay for someone to support a mistress.”
"It's just silver, I can't afford it."
"If I win the bid for Flavouring, I'll be making a fortune every day."
