Chapter Thirty-Two
"Father-in-law!" Xu Heming had a headache.
This is just too much of a coincidence.
Otherwise, how could they have just happened to stumble upon such a scene?
Those who don't know the situation might think that the Prince An's mansion is a den of dragons and tigers, and that Li Zhiwei suffers all kinds of bullying there.
It's all because of that damned Zhou Yuying.
“Your Highness, please be careful with your words. I am not worthy of being called your father-in-law. We will discuss Weiwei’s matter with you later. Weiwei, let’s go.” After saying this, Li Tianyou pulled his daughter away.
"Father-in-law, this is a misunderstanding," Xu Heming said helplessly. His father-in-law had just arrived in the capital and saw someone bullying his daughter in the mansion. Anyone would be unhappy in that situation.
"I have no intention of blaming Your Highness. However, my daughter and I have much to say to each other. I hope Your Highness will not stop us." Li Tianyou's expression was not good, but his words were not to be questioned. Moreover, the father wanted to speak with his daughter.
Xu Heming had no reason to refuse.
“Father-in-law, you’re new to the capital. We’ve already prepared a courtyard for you. Why don’t you stay here first, and then let Zhiwei keep you company?” Xu Heming quickly said.
"Your Highness, there's no need for you to trouble yourself. Although I don't stay in the capital often, I still have a place to stay here. Today, I'll have a chat with my daughter first, and tomorrow morning, I will come to the palace to meet the Emperor with Your Highness."
Li Tianyou's words were tinged with estrangement.
Li Zhiwei stood to the side with her head down, saying nothing.
If we're talking about not having any anger, Li Zhiwei certainly does.
After all, she couldn't say anything about Zhou Yuying's visit to the mansion. However, thinking that Zhou Yuying could bully her like this in the mansion today, who knows what she might dare to do in the future.
Moreover, Zhou Yuying is Xu Qingshi's maternal aunt. In the capital, which aristocratic family doesn't have close kinship ties?
If Prince An were to turn back and want to marry Miss Zhou this week, what could I, a mere merchant's daughter, possibly offer to compete with her?
She may have money, but in the face of power, that money is not enough.
Rather than that, she might as well think of somewhere else to go.
Now that she has donated her dowry to the imperial court, presumably, in consideration of that money, the court should protect the Li family to some extent.
Of course, it would be even better if she could receive the Emperor's favor, but Li Zhiwei only dared to think about these things secretly in her heart.
Li Tianyou returned to Xiliu Lane with his daughter, his face dark the entire way.
This made Li Zhiwei feel a little unsure. Was her father angry?
"Father, please don't be angry." Li Zhiwei only dared to say softly after Li Tianyou sat down.
"Actually, today was an accident. It was also the first time I had ever met Miss Zhou."
As Li Zhiwei said this, she actually felt a little guilty. If she hadn't hit Zhou Yuying first, Zhou Yuying probably wouldn't have pushed her.
