Seeing this attitude, Xiao Shan was completely unmoved.
Zhao Letong glared at him, but Xiao Shanjian refused to compromise. His eyes were even more determined than hers. This was a matter of his entire life, and he couldn't just watch his benefactor go to waste like this.
Zhao Letong couldn't hold back his pride anymore and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll send you back?"
Xiao Shanjian took a few more bites of the dish. It tasted good, not inferior to the imperial chef's, and had a more free flavor.
He said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, I will go back sooner or later. I can make money playing outside every day. It's not like I'm going to jail when I go home. What should I be afraid of?
But you, aren't you afraid that I'll go back and settle old scores with you?"
"hiss……"
Zhao Letong took a breath of cold air. His threat failed, and he was threatened by him instead. What kind of thing is this?
"Okay, you're awesome. Stop eating and go home."
Xiao Shanjian called the waiter over, "Put it in a food box and I'll take it away. I'll have another serving of this crispy duck, it tastes great. Let Grandma Zhao try it."
Zhao Letong glanced at him and asked, "Are you paying?"
"Of course not. Why should I pay when you're here?"
"Are you so close to me?"
"Well, what are we meeting?"
Xiao Shanjian was still a little shy, and Zhao Letong was so angry that he wanted to slap him in the face.
The shopkeeper came to invite her: "The boss knows that Miss Zhao is here, please come over and have a chat. Is Miss Zhao free?"
"Yes, I'll leave him to you to take care of. Don't run away."
Now he wanted to go back, but Zhao Letong refused. Who knew what he would do when he returned? What if he took revenge on his family?
We have to find something against him so that he won't dare to retaliate.
Ye Heqi was still so cold and aloof, like the bright moon in the sky. I couldn't imagine that someone like him could be a businessman without any smell of money.
"Tongtong, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to have gained some weight."
Zhao Letong looked at her belly, bent down, and saw her feet. It seemed that she had indeed gained a little weight.
With a stern face, she said, "You all came here to piss me off today, didn't you? I'm fat because I eat chicken at home, not because of you."
Ye Heqi laughed heartily. For some reason, he felt very happy seeing her. "I said something wrong. Sit down, have some tea, and talk to me for a while."
Zhao Letong suddenly grabbed his hand. She shivered from the cold, but she didn't let go. She continued to supply him with spiritual energy. Ye Heqi felt warm all over and indescribably comfortable.
I was shocked and confused, this child was indeed extraordinary.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Letong let go. His face seemed thinner and his complexion didn't look too good.
"Tongtong, does it have no effect on you if you help me like this?"
"Yes, I will lose my energy and blood. I need to eat more nourishing herbs like ginseng. Your cold poison has recurred. If I don't help you, you will only live for a month at most."
Ye Heqi was moved: "Thank you, Tongtong. Don't help others carelessly in the future, especially if it hurts yourself. People's hearts are unpredictable. It is a crime to possess a treasure. If you are forced to save others, you will be in great danger."
"Well, Brother Ye is not a bad person."
Ye Heqi was very pleased. He touched her head and said, "Do you want to replenish your Qi and blood now?"
"Not for now."
Zhao Letong has saved a lot recently, so he won’t be exhausted easily.
After chatting with him for a while, Zhao Letong took away ten hundred-year-old ginsengs and went home happily.
…
When I entered the room, I found that the atmosphere was not right. The servants were a little nervous, as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Are there guests at home?"
The servant replied, "Princess Yiyang and Lord Chen have arrived, and Grandmother is receiving them."
The princess is a royal relative, and the Zhao family is just a general's mansion, so they must be treated well.
"I'll go over and take a look."
Xiao Shanjian was a little nervous and clenched his fists. The princess knew him.
"My stomach hurts. I'm going home."
Zhao Letong's wrist was grabbed, and his face turned grim: "Pull it into your trouser pocket."
For the first time, Xiao Shanjian felt the fear of offending a woman. Even if it was a little girl, it was very torturous.
Fortunately, Zhao Letong didn't think about meeting the princess, and secretly hid outside the door and eavesdropped.
Chen Xinyue was also present. The father and mother came specifically for Chen Xinyue, playing the emotional card and wanting to take Chen Xinyue home.
As long as I return to the Chen family and fall into their hands, can't they do whatever they want to me?
It turned out that Princess Yi Yang noticed that something was wrong with Chen Boyang recently, so she forced him to answer, thinking that he had another woman outside. Chen Boyang had no choice but to tell her about Chen Xinyue.
Princess Yi Yang was also surprised. The child was not dead?
After all, she is a woman, and all she thinks about are the ways of the inner chamber. If she has to die, she must die quietly and not ruin her family's reputation.
So he took the initiative to ask Chen Boyang for the person.
Mrs. Zhao was also in a dilemma. Chen Xinyue was not a relative of hers. Her biological father came with witnesses and evidence to look for his relatives. It would be unreasonable not to let her go.
Princess Yiyang made a great show of preparing generous gifts and said graciously, "This child has troubled your family for so long, this is a small token of our appreciation.
Although I am a stepmother, I will not treat the child harshly. She has grown up and has her own ideas. I only want to find a good marriage for her so that my lord will not be worried about her and feel guilty.
Parents are all for their children, and Grandma Zhao can understand that."
Chen Xinyue didn't make things difficult for Mrs. Zhao and said, "I'll go back with you, Auntie. Thank you for helping me. I can handle my own affairs."
Mrs. Zhao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Well, if you have any problems, just come to our house. Although we are not from a high-class family, we have been living together for a while and I have treated you as one of my own. I will never let anyone bully you."
