Jiang Li put down the teacup, his expression unchanged, "What else?"
"Bang!" Jiang Sheng slapped the table.
Sure enough, this daughter came to collect a debt.
Zhou was right! If she really married Prince Jingling, I'm afraid he would never be able to control her again.
"Is there anything else, father?"
Jiang Li's voice was not loud, but it contained a chilling coldness that made people feel uneasy, like a small beast with its claws and fangs retracted.
Zhou wanted to say something, but she swallowed her words. She turned to look at Jiang Sheng, reminding him to speak quickly.
