“Young Master, don’t worry, the Young Mistress will feel your sincerity,” Li Bo smiled.
He Jingyao let out an irritated snort and suddenly asked, “Li Bo, are you married?”
“No, Young Master,” Li Bo coughed lightly.
“Then what makes you the love guru?” He Jingyao glanced at him sideways.
Li Bo’s mouth twitched, “Though I’ve never been married, I have had a lover.”
“Lover...” He Jingyao repeated the word.
...
“Young Master, just imagine, if the Young Mistress were to leave you forever...”
“Impossible!” He Jingyao harshly interrupted him, but his heart strangely calmed down.
Even if Su Zixi made him feel defeated, he couldn’t imagine a life without her.
So, sincerity...
With formidable strength, He Yizheng was caught off guard and was thrown to the ground.
At his moment of disbelief, He Jingyao looked down at him with cold eyes, “Uncle, I have a bad temper. If there’s a next time, even father can’t save you.”
After he finished, he left with a faint smile. He Yizheng watched his retreating figure, never before had he felt such humiliation.
As he remembered that humiliating feeling, the hatred in his heart grew even denser!
Although he was an elder and a few years older than He Jingyao, what did that matter? He was a bastard, while He Jingyao was the favored son of heaven. What made it even more painful was having to admit that his nephew’s business acumen and ability far surpassed his own.
As for how to repay this humiliation...
He Yizheng thought of Su Zixi’s pale face and couldn’t help but smile.
Seeing this, Xia Xinyu couldn’t restrain herself from wrapping her arms around his waist, “Yizheng, What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing,” He Yizheng replied indifferently, exhaling a deep puff of smoke, “By the way, I probably won’t be able to return to Yanzhou City for a long time, take care of yourself.”
Listening to his nonchalant tone, a mix of bitterness and fear took root in Xia Xinyu’s heart.
She knew He Yizheng too well, so seeing that expression on his face, she immediately understood that he had his sights set on new prey.
But who could it be?
