“I’ve prepared a congratulatory gift for grandfather. You can count it tonight and see if there’s anything else you need. I’ll have someone send it over tomorrow.” Zhao Ruifeng said to Zhao Yingying, and then asked people to prepare lunch.
Jiang Xi looked up at Zhao Ruifeng when she heard this. Was there a happy occasion for the Zhao family?
“Oh, by the way, Jiang Xi, you’re too kind. You even wished that woman, Zhao Panpan, to marry the most distinguished man in the world. She’s really lucky.” Zhao Yingying pouted and felt a little pity in her heart. In the end, Zhao Panpan still sat in the position in her dream.
“I heard that Zhao Panpan was summoned by the Emperor as soon as she returned to Jing City. In next year’s selection of concubines,Zhao Panpan will definitely enter the Eastern Palace and become the crown prince’s concubine. She will be the future crown prince’s wife and even the future empress…” Zhao Yingying mumbled. In her dream, the crown prince’s wife would die of illness in two years, and everything would be Zhao Panpan’s.
“That’s not for sure. I think Zhao Panpan and the crown prince are quite fated to be mother and son,” Jiang Xi suddenly said.
“Mother and son fate?!” Zhao Yingying’s mouth was wide open in shock as she looked at Jiang Xi in disbelief.
“Yes, it’s fate.” Jiang Xi said with certainty. Although she did not know why the relationship between Zhao Panpan and the crown prince, Dong Sheng, had become so strange and even immoral, it was the truth. She could only say that one had to pay for what they had done.
“Hahahaha, mother and son fate! It’s actually fated!” Zhao Yingying suddenly laughed out loud. As she laughed, tears began to fall, and then she sobbed softly. “So there really is retribution…”
Jiang Xi glanced at Zhao Yingying and said with certainty, “I don’t know if there’s retribution, but I’m here!” With her around, was there a need to be afraid that retribution would not come? Zhao Yingying choked on her words, then she laughed through her tears. At the same time, she secretly complained that Zhao Ruifeng did not support her. He should’ve quickly taken Jiang Xi home to be his sister-in-law!
Zhao Ruifeng, who was working, sneezed!
Little did they know that an imperial edict fromJing City had disrupted everything. There were rumors in Jing City that the eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Ruifeng, was the reincarnation of an Asura. He would be alone for the rest of his life and could not marry anyone. There were even rumors that if he did not like a girl, he could directly arrange a blind date for her with Zhao Ruifeng. Zhao Ruifeng had become the most feared existence of unmarried girls. Of course, there were many people who liked Zhao Ruifeng, but they could only think about it. After all, their lives were still important.
“These b*stards are spreading rumors about you in Jing City again. One day, I’ll bring a sister-in-law back and slap their faces!” Zhao Yingying said with hatred.
“These people are also telling the truth,” Zhao Ruifeng said indifferently.
“Big brother, can’t you work harder? You can’t even handle a little girl, and you still need me to help you court her”! Zhao Yingying almost pointed at Zhao Ruifeng’s nose and said, “I asked you to send Jiang Xi home today and create an opportunity for you to be alone with Jiang Xi, but you said that no one would dare to touch Jiang Xi, so it’s fine even if she goes back alone?! Big brother, I’ll take you to see your brain and see how it works!”
Jiang Xi was stunned by Zhao Ruifeng’s words, and she looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
Zhao Ruifeng raised his eyebrows and said, “Jiang Xi is so lucky. Do you think anyone would dare to touch her? Moreover, Jiang Xi does look harmless.” Zhao Ruifeng did not feel that his words were wrong.
Zhao Yingying was so angry that she almost laughed. What he said was right, but it was a big mistake to say it all together! The corners of Zhao Ruifeng’s mouth curled up slightly. He did not let Zhao Yingying see it. He would never tell her that he had been following and protecting Jiang Xi like a fool. After all, he was too unlucky and did not want Jiang Xi to be affected, lest he ruined her good luck.
If Jiang Xi knew what Zhao Ruifeng was thinking, she would have said, “Don’t you think too highly of yourself?
As Zhao Ruifeng spoke to Zhao Yingying, he thought about Jiang Xi’s face. The little girl seemed so soft that she wanted to pinch her face. If such an innocent and harmless little girl were to marry into the Zhao family… She would probably be eaten up until not even her bones were left.
Zhao Ruifeng pursed his lips tightly. He had a strange feeling when he first saw Jiang Xi. He could not help but look at her as if he had an innate affection for her. However, Zhao Ruifeng sighed. He really did not want to drag Jiang Xi into the Zhao family’s mess.
