Chapter 181
"Okay!" At this moment, Huo Yunyao was thinking about Xu Heming inviting her for drinks.
Huo Yunyao forgot that the servants had just told her that someone was trying to harm her younger brother, and that she had come to support him.
Now, Xu Heming has completely forgotten about his younger brother with just a few words.
"Guards, take Miss Huo to Wangyue Tower and wait for me." Xu Heming's lips curled into a barely perceptible sneer.
He cursed inwardly, "What an idiot."
Huo Yunxuan was extremely anxious in his study.
However, the guards held him captive, and he could do nothing.
After Huo Yunyao left, Xu Heming had someone untie Huo Yunxuan's mouth.
"Young Master Huo, what should we do? It seems your sister wants to become my queen?" Xu Heming's eyes were full of sarcasm as he spoke.
Someone like Huo Yunyao doesn't even deserve it.
"Prince An, my sister has never harmed you. What do you intend to do to her?" Huo Yunxuan was terrified.
His second sister is such a shrewd person, how could she possibly fall for Xu Heming?
He's a demon!
"Never hurt me? Don't you know what she wants to do today? Aren't you surprised that your good brother-in-law and his mistress are at your Jiyun Manor?" Xu Heming's words made Huo Yunxuan's heart sink to the bottom.
He knew that the person his second sister wanted to deal with was Li Zhiwei.
"But the people who got into trouble were Zhu Yunxian and his mistress. Miss Li is fine!" Huo Yunxuan pleaded.
After all, the person who got into trouble was not Li Zhiwei.
His second sister didn't hurt Li Zhiwei.
Since no harm was caused, Xu Heming could not take revenge on his second sister.
"If I hadn't arranged enough people around Zhiwei, your second sister's evil scheme would have succeeded, wouldn't it? Tell me, how could I possibly swallow this insult?" Xu Heming had no intention of letting any member of the Huo family who had harmed the Li family go unpunished.
"If my sister has done anything to offend Prince An and Princess An, I will take the punishment on her behalf!" For the first time, Huo Yunxuan felt powerless.
In the past, the Huo family could do whatever they wanted in Li'an County.
That's because in Li'an County, there's no one they can't afford to offend.
But now, the Huo family cannot afford to offend the person in front of them.
Even though Li Zhiwei did not suffer any real harm today.
He also knew that Prince An's anger would eventually reach the Huo family.
Ultimately, it all stemmed from his arrogance.

Zheng Qiaoshu went to the study several times, but was stopped at the door each time.
“Miss, you are not allowed to enter the Prince’s study,” the servant said, stopping Zheng Qiaoshu.
"Young man, has the prince not returned these past two days?" Zheng Qiaoshu frowned. She wasn't really going to the study to look for anything; she just wanted to try her luck and see if she could run into Xu Heming.
"I don't know either. His Highness may be busy with official duties. It's common for him to be away from the manor for ten days or half a month." The servant didn't know where Xu Heming had gone, but he just told the truth.
