Chapter 214: As for the prince consort, I’ll be the one!
After leaving the hotel restaurant, Kong Zhian went straight back to his room, called the staff to bring him breakfast, and then started to open his computer to deal with the accumulated work.
He had indeed not expected that Xing Ertang's investment in China was intended to recruit a consort for Princess Winnie.
Then this project is not suitable for him.
He had to deal with other work as soon as possible and also had someone arrange his trip out of Xing'ertang. If he rushed back now, he would still have time to attend the regular meeting next Wednesday.
At this moment, Kong Zhian's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and answered the call: "Hello, what's going on?"
"Master, Prince Lucius asked how you rested and what you thought about the matter he proposed."
"What's there to consider?" Kong Zhian raised his eyebrows.
He was only fifteen years old, and he was asked to be the consort of Princess Winnie? He even needed to consider it?
"Prince Lucius said that this was just a formal engagement, and that we would cancel the engagement after two years. He would also personally make up the difference, provided we made concessions..."
Kong Zhian interrupted the other party: "This matter ends here."
No matter how much concessions he makes, it's impossible for him to marry someone else, even if it's just a formality of engagement!
"But Master..." The man wanted to say something, but thinking of his master's temper, which could only be persuaded by the eldest daughter, he could only swallow the rest of his words and finally said, "Master, it's all up to you."
"Prepare for your return trip." Kong Zhian hung up the phone, threw it aside, and continued working, muttering, "This is really outrageous."
At the same time, in the hotel restaurant, Cheng Yue and Chu Xiaoxiao finished their breakfast and went back to their room first. They still had filming and live broadcast tasks today, so they had to dress up again.
"Xiyan, your brother's name is Kong Zhian?" Zhong Yongan looked at Kong Xiyan and asked, "Is he fifteen years old this year?"
"Yeah, about the same age as Zhong Yanyong." Kong Xiyan nodded. She picked up her phone and took a look. "I'll go back to my room first. Someone's looking for me."
"Okay, sister. See you later." Zhong Yangyang nodded and watched Kong Xiyan leave before taking a sip of the drink in the cup: "Brother, let's go back to the room."
"Yangyang, do you know what Xiyan's adoptive parents do?" Zhong Yongan looked at Zhong Yangyang with a frown.
"I'm not sure. I heard that they live in the mountains and the living conditions seem to be quite difficult. Her sister had to work part-time to supplement the family income when she was very young, and she still often has part-time jobs now." Zhong Yangyang couldn't help but feel sorry for Kong Xiyan when he thought of this.
Her sister always seems to have endless part-time jobs.
Now, after finally getting a chance to go abroad, he's working part-time as a prince consort.
"Is life hard?" Zhong Yongan's eyes moved slightly.
He had felt something was amiss a long time ago. Kong Xiyan's demeanor and abilities didn't seem like she came from a poor family.
Seeing that Zhong Yangyang really seemed to know nothing, Zhong Yongan did not ask her anything else. He just asked her to go back to the hotel room first and he would come to see her later.
After Zhong Yangyang left, Zhong Yongan murmured Kong Zhian's name, then took out his phone and called Zhong Qiqiang: "Dad, are you busy?"
"I'm looking at documents. What's wrong?" Zhong Qiqiang raised his wrist to check the time. "It should be morning over at Xing Ertang, right?"
"Yes, I just had breakfast with Yangyang and Xiyan." Zhong Yongan responded before asking, "Dad, have you learned about Xiyan's adoptive parents' family situation?"
"Is this Xiyan's adoptive parents' home?" Zhong Qiqiang frowned. "I heard they live in the mountains, and their living conditions seem quite difficult. Xiyan had to work part-time to supplement the family income when she was very young, and she still often has a part-time job now."
"Don't you know more about Xiyan?" Zhong Yongan's mouth twitched when he heard Zhong Qiqiang say the same words as Zhong Yangyang.
"Xiyan is naive and weak." Zhong Qiqiang thought for a moment and said, "Take good care of her."
"I know, Dad." Zhong Yongan knew that Zhong Qiqiang should know all this, so he hung up the phone and sat in his original seat, lost in thought.
On the other side, Kong Xiyan returned to her room and took out her phone to call back: "Luo Lao San, are you looking for me?"
"Well, have you heard?" Luo Zhenxuan was packing up his things: "This time, Xing Ertang is recruiting investors in China to find a consort for Princess Winnie."
"I'm almost getting calluses from hearing so much." Kong Xiyan rolled her eyes and said, "Get to the point."
"The point is, since this matter has nothing to do with us, it's about time we return home." Luo Zhenxuan himself was not interested in being the son-in-law of Xing Erxuan, nor did he think that Zhong Yongan would stay in Xing Erxuan as a son-in-law, and he did not think that the royal family of Xing Erxuan would be interested in the current good-for-nothing of the Luo family.
Since there is no hope, he has to cut his losses in time and return immediately so that he can continue to do other work and look for other projects.
"What do you mean it has nothing to do with us?" Kong Xiyan raised an eyebrow: "My eldest brother is going to sign the contract today, how can it have nothing to do with us?"
"What did you say?" Luo Zhenxuan's men paused. "Sign a contract? Your elder brother wants to stay in Xing'ertang as a consort?"
For some money, not really...
"It was my eldest brother who signed the contract, but he is no longer the prince consort." Kong Xiyan curled the corners of her mouth.
"Kong Xiyan! You!" Luo Zhenxuan frowned, "Are you planning to sell me out just for a little money? Kong Xiyan, are you really heartless?!"
Wasn't that obvious enough from what he'd said that night?
"What?" Kong Xiyan was stunned: "Why would I sell you out?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's meaningless. Just sign the contract. As for the prince consort, I'll be the one to take care of it!" Kong Xiyan snorted.
"You still have the mind to joke at this time?" Luo Zhenxuan snorted and laughed: "Stop it, I'm serious. Do you want to go back with me? What are your plans for the future?"
"Who's kidding you?" Kong Xiyan said with a sigh, "I really am the prince consort! Why don't you believe it?"
"Yes, yes, you are the prince consort, the female prince consort, okay?" Luo Zhenxuan shook his head: "Are you going back with me? Or with your eldest brother? Where is Mo Ya?"
"You obviously still haven't received the letter..." Kong Xiyan was speechless: "If you want to go back, go back by yourself! I don't want to bother with you!"
After saying this, Kong Xiyan hung up the phone directly, looked at her phone and snorted: "Wait until the contract is signed, and see if you still believe it!"
The formal contract will be signed in the royal palace meeting hall seven days later. Xing Ertang’s official media and many royal celebrities will be invited to attend, and Xing Ertang’s official channel will also broadcast this grand event as soon as possible.
Today, it is just a small meeting, at which Zhong Yongan will present the initial version of the contract to King Leon.
If there are any parts that need to be modified or reconsidered, they will be raised and the details will be finalized at today's meeting.
