Chapter 731
Seriously.
What's so scary about that?
Huo Zhao was happy to save himself the trouble of discussing it with him, so he told him to go back and rest first, and then he went out.
Duan Huaichuan stood quietly outside.
After a long absence, Duan Huaichuan had become much more composed. He stood there quietly, like a pine tree that could withstand wind and snow.
"Brother Huaichuan".
Hearing the sound, Duan Huaichuan looked up.
Huo Zhao has also changed a lot.
She was radiant, her eyes and brows radiating a serenity nurtured by love; she seemed like a completely different person compared to before.
It got better.
Duan Huaichuan smiled and said, "Zhaozhao."
After saying that, Duan Huaichuan chuckled again: "It really is a bit hard to get used to."
After all, he has been calling her "Xi'er sister" for so many years.
Huo Zhao laughed: "You can call me whatever you want, Brother Huaichuan."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
"Are you going out again this time you're back?"
Duan Huaichuan shook his head: "Thanks to my teacher's influence, I have achieved some political success in Jizhou, so His Majesty summoned me back."
Duan Huaichuan's time in Jizhou was short, and it was no easy feat for him to achieve political success that pleased the emperor in such a short period.
But Huo Zhao didn't find this particularly unbelievable: "I knew you could do it."
Duan Huaichuan's smile deepened: "When I came back this time, I saw Mu Ning. He hasn't changed much."
When they talked about old friends, the two had endless topics to discuss.
They were so engrossed in their conversation that they forgot the time, and only stopped talking when Shen Rang came out of the mountain and water residence.
Shen Rang stood next to Huo Zhao, his face full of tenderness as he looked at him: "It's so cold, let's go back."
After speaking, Shen Rang glanced at Duan Huaichuan.
There was no trace of tenderness left in his eyes, only utter impatience.
Duan Huaichuan knew that Shen Rang was dissatisfied with him.
However, his status is different now: "Speaking of which, Zhao Zhao has called me brother since she was little. Now that Prince Shen has become Zhao Zhao's husband, shouldn't he call me brother-in-law?"
As he spoke, Duan Huaichuan straightened his clothes: "I haven't heard Prince Shen call me that yet. Is he dissatisfied with me?"
Shen Rang gritted his teeth.
Huo Zhao shrugged at him, indicating that he couldn't do anything about it.
After all, what Duan Huaichuan said was true.
Shen Rang's eyes seemed to be able to kill, but his hands were very well-prepared: "Brother-in-law."
Duan Huaichuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, you and Zhaozhao will get along well from now on."
The mere mention of "brother-in-law" was enough to make Duan Huaichuan put on such airs in front of him; how could Shen Rang possibly accept that?
I thought that after I had a proper marriage agreement with Huo Zhao, I no longer needed to pay attention to Duan Huaichuan. I never expected that Duan Huaichuan would come up with such a strange trick!
From now on, won't Duan Huaichuan be able to outdo him in everything?
Duan Huaichuan wasn't oblivious to the situation, and he knew that the two had been talking for quite some time, so he said, "You two should go back and rest. I have an appointment with Mu Ning, and it's getting late, so I should go."
Shen Rang put his arm around Huo Zhao's waist: "Since you've made an appointment, you should hurry up and get busy."
It's ridiculous that you're wasting so much time here when you have something to do!
After saying that, he turned and left with Huo Zhao, not wanting to stay with Duan Huaichuan for even a moment longer.
