Xiao Cunyu was not afraid of people at all. She held her head high and chest out, looking more like the master of the house than the serious prince of the marquis's mansion.
Moreover, one was tied in, while the other was invited in, so naturally they were different.
The lights were on in the marquis's mansion.
The courtyard was as bright as day. Not long after entering, I saw a throne in the corridor. A very serious and terrifying person sat on it...
The man looked at her coldly with a gloomy face.
The servants on both sides were holding lanterns, and the red light reflected on his face, making him look even more ferocious.
Xiao Cunyu hid behind Zhou Jingmao for a moment: "Brother, who is that ferocious man? How come he is scarier than my eldest brother?"
"That's my father." Zhou Jingmao said with a sad face.
"Oh~" Xiao Cunyu nodded thoughtfully, "Your father is nothing like you. You must take after your mother."
This sounded quite light-hearted, but Zhou Jingmao couldn't laugh at all.
The child without a mother is pitiful. After his mother died, his father no longer loves him!
"I remember you just said my grandmother was right next to you... Is that true?" Zhou Jingmao swallowed hard. "My grandmother loves me the most. How about you pass on a message for her? So that my father won't be so harsh?"
Xiao Cunyu ignored him.
He is not stupid. When he sees the ghost, he can coax the boy with such words, but he cannot coax the furious Marquis!
He wouldn't talk nonsense!
Of course, the old lady was floating nearby. She was used to it. After all, it was normal for a person to have a ghost protecting her.
Moreover, the old lady's soul is quite pure. She is just worried about her grandson and wants to see him a few more times. In the future, when her grandson gets married and starts a family, she will naturally leave. Her obsession is not too deep.
"How long have you known me? Why do you believe everything I say? Are you stupid?" Xiao Cunyu grinned. "Do I look like someone who can see ghosts?"
“…” Zhou Jingmao was confused.
It doesn’t look like that. It really doesn’t look like that.
This Xiao Cunyu, with his wanton smile and unrestrained personality, is just like the warm jade under the bright sunlight, so hot!
And the person who can see ghosts should be... a little gloomy and quiet, right?
"You lied to me? Impossible! You even calculated my romantic calamity..." Zhou Jingmao said hurriedly.
"Are you a man? If you are a man, most of you will have peach blossom disasters. It's true." Xiao Cunyu continued to talk nonsense, "Look at you, you are so stupid."
"..." Zhou Jingmao was so angry that he almost jumped up and down, "Then, what about what happened at midnight?"
"I was just trying to scare you. Who knew your family members would be so accurate?" Xiao Cunyu thought Zhou Jingmao's angry look was quite funny.
However, this man was no longer just angry.
His anger was about to set his hair on fire, and his eyes looked as if he wanted to eat Xiao Cunyu.
"You unfilial son! You did such a shameful thing, and you don't repent and even dare to escape in the middle of the night! Have you forgotten all the rules your father has told you these days!" Lord Zhou pointed at Zhou Jingmao, his hands shaking with anger.
Zhou Jingmao feels wronged.
"Dad! I really didn't know that Shaoyao would enter the palace?! If I knew that she would be the emperor's woman sooner or later, I would not touch her even if you beat me to death!" Zhou Jingmao shouted hurriedly.
Xiao Cunyu raised his eyebrows: "Brother, did you touch her finger?"
Of course, if you dare to touch the emperor’s woman, your fate will be cut short by Long Wei!
