Kapitel 187

Is there anything that could make him take notice? Is there anything that could make him lose his mind? This book is first published by Xiaoxiang Academy, please do not reprint!

[Extra: Su Gu (2)]

Ziyi, do you realize that you have offended someone you cannot defeat?

I was worried about her, but she didn't care at all. She even went so far as to challenge the Emperor, saying, "You don't actually like Chou Qian, do you?"

She said everyone was worried for her.

This is ridiculous! How can you even ask such a question?! Even if you could, it's none of your business to ask it!

But she didn't care. After asking the question, she thought she had done something amazing and started to act spoiled towards Zi Mo.

Zi Mo dotes on her; it's obvious to everyone. She also relies on Zi Mo a lot.

My appearance was completely unfavorable to her.

She took the initiative to approach Zi Mo, and I took the initiative to approach her. She pushed me away, but Zi Mo wouldn't push her away. "Don't embarrass me. You're neither man nor woman, you're really a monster."

I couldn't help but chuckle. Am I neither male nor female? No one has ever said that to me, and I'm not so genderless as to have lost my gender. Compared to her, at least I'm recognizable as a man at a glance. Yet he put such a big label on my head. Fine, I'll keep my title as the most handsome man in the capital, all so that someone won't be too conspicuous.

Unfortunately, my efforts, like her restless behavior, were just a matter of getting by.

"Thirty thousand taels is nothing, even three hundred thousand taels would be..."

She stared intently at me with her phoenix eyes, and I chuckled and took back my words.

She's hopeless, but I just love teasing her. Whether she's impatient, lawless, lazy, or not a good person, as long as she is who she is, I'll treat her the same way, cherish her in my own way, and care for her in my own way.

Who says that inevitable failure can't bring me joy? Who says that an inevitable ending can leave me without hope?

Having gone through this process, I am content; having this longing has fulfilled my desire.

Zi Yi is a very discerning person; the things she sets her sights on are definitely not something that can be bought with a small sum of money. Zi Mo is not capable of doing everything according to his wishes, Wu Hui will not notice the constraints of her life, and Si Kong is even less likely to help her.

The Emperor wouldn't give extra care to a child born to a concubine, even if he were interested, I know he wouldn't.

This is the Emperor. He never acts according to his own preferences. His ultimate goal is the empire, and everything he does must live up to the title of Emperor Renguang.

At first, I secretly paid for her purchases, afraid that she would feel guilty, so I didn't dare tell her. But who knew that once she found out, she would go on an even more extravagant shopping spree.

I clearly remember that she took the money she got from Madam Mu to pay off her debts. The shopkeeper told her what I had said, and I thought she would be angry, but she casually took a batch of famous paintings from the shopkeeper and added as she left: "Little cutie behind the door, remember to pay my bill."

I was dumbfounded.

She's gone, and now it's my turn to suffer. She always liked to buy weird and strange things, and she wouldn't sell them unless they were expensive. I don't know whether to call her wasteful or praise her for having good taste.

The money her mother gave her was far from enough to cover her expenses at any one time. It seemed she wanted to buy all the world's wonders and build her own empire by buying houses and land. Even when neighboring countries auctioned off their land, she would announce it to me with fanfare.

She didn't seem to think anything was wrong. She acted as if it were perfectly natural for me to pay, and if I didn't, she would consider me an utterly wicked person.

I'm wondering, what did I do to deserve this? I did something good, but now I'm a slave.

She sometimes buys unnecessary things, yet they cost tens of millions of dollars. If I say no, she ignores me. If you don't buy it for her, she'll walk right past you, treating you like you're invisible.

I was the last one to compromise, and slowly I figured out her pattern. In short, if you see something good, rare, or treasured by various countries, you can't go wrong by offering it to them.

Besides providing her with relief, I also approached Madam Mu, a capable woman who was probably the only one capable of giving birth to such a freak. She did not want to cooperate with me, and I did not force her.

I gave her the token of the Su family business, hoping she would run it well. No matter how capable a woman is, there are endless difficulties here, not to mention that her things might even bury that arrogant hero.

That's all I can do. I hope you understand.

"Big brother."

The man from Chu held the scroll, but I neither looked at it nor asked about it.

Because I don't need it. Whether I grow old alone or I predecease her, it's none of my business, nor is it part of my plans.

I have no ambitions. As long as the Su family is well and she is well, I am at peace.

But is she alright? No, she is not. What I expected happened: Zi Mo sent her to Wu Hui, seeking the protection of the Prince of Shouping's mansion.

This was bound to happen sooner or later. Even if it wasn't Ziqi, it would have been someone else. If it weren't for Zimo, he would have been in an even worse situation. It wasn't something that could be avoided simply by having a mother impersonate him.

Her own supernatural power is already evident; you can't let others become blind to it.

She made the right choice in choosing us. She needs a powerful backer. Her appearance will bring her trouble, and her mother will also bring her trouble.

She needs a guarantee to survive, and she chose Zi Mo first, but now she chooses Wu Hui.

It seems she is more insightful than I imagined.

Shen Ziqi's death was not surprising at all, and Zi Mo's move was perfectly timed. Zi Ye could very well pose a threat to Zi Mo, who needs absolute power to inherit the Shen family's estate; otherwise, he can't protect even a hair on Zi Yi's head.

He did it, sacrificing family ties for the greater good. He became the only eldest son in the Shen family, gained all of Shen Huanzheng's attention, became the undisputed successor, and took the first step in the Shen family's external politics.

He wanted to keep the income he wanted. He had been waiting for this opportunity since he made his move without regret. This opportunity was his guarantee for Ziyi's future life.

He had to fight for his own life, choosing between two families. He favored Ziyi, which led to Ziqi's death and Ziye's exile.

I think that Ziye died on his first day at the border, and he was definitely involved in it!

...

I am closest to Wu Hui. Our families have been friends for generations, and we discuss and negotiate matters between our two families.

When my mother said she wanted to marry the woman from Chu to Wu Hui, I objected and decided to take a risk and send her to the palace.
