When Nangong Lie and nda came back, Min Ru stood respectfully at the door, "Your Highness, you are back."
"Where's the princess?" He took off his suit jacket and threw it over.
"The princess is upstairs."
Nangong Lie frowned and strode upstairs. Nda followed behind, with a slightly raised mouth, and casually threw his handbag to Min Ru, "Take it up."
Min Ru gritted her teeth, suppressed the urge to throw the bag on her head, cursed in a low voice and followed her.
Nangong Lie went straight to the guest room where Li Xue currently lived, but found that there was no one inside. At this moment, nda exclaimed, "What are you doing in my room?"
nda stood at the door, staring at Li Xue who was helping Ah Shou pack things, and asked in a bad tone, "Princess, who is this man? What are you doing with him in my room?"
Before Li Xue could say anything, Ah Shou patted her on the shoulder, indicating that he would take care of everything.
He raised his eyebrows slowly and glanced at nda, "Sorry, this room is mine now."
Min Ru was overjoyed outside, but in her heart she really admired Ah Shou.
"What are you talking about?!" Nda was so angry that she walked directly to Li Xue without looking at him, raising her chin domineeringly, "Princess, please give me an explanation."
"Haha, I heard that Qianmei Palace is very user-friendly. Guests can take any room they like. I like it here and I will stay here tonight. Is there anything wrong?" When Ah Shou said this, his eyes went directly over
She fell on the man at the door who was as beautiful as a god.
Nangong Lie glanced at him, half-smiling but not smiling, and lightly parted his thin lips, "Ah Shou, when did you come back?"
"Lie..." Seeing him, Li Xue subconsciously shrank behind Ah Shou. Ah Shou didn't allow her to escape. He put his arm around her shoulders, pushed her in front of him, and smiled, "Let me see Xiaoxue."
Staring at Li Xue, Nangong Lie asked almost suppressedly, "Do you owe me an explanation for what happened tonight?"
It was obvious that the relationship between the two of them was unusual. Nda bit her lip. She didn't want Li Xue to say too much, so she simply pretended to be generous and said, "Forget it, it's just a room. I don't really like it here anyway." She raised her eyes.
, looked directly at Li Xue with provocative eyes, "Princess, please help me arrange another room."
"Okay," Li Xue was about to go out, but was held down by Ah Shou.
"Haha, Lie, since when did Qianmei Palace need the princess to personally serve the guests?"
Even if Nangong Lie was angry with Li Xue, he would not allow others to treat her so arrogantly, which could even be described as bad. He raised his eyebrows and his voice became colder, "She is not your servant. She wants to live in a comfortable place."
An’an, it’s best to recognize your identity immediately!”
"You——" Nda suppressed her anger, glared at Li Xue with sullen eyes, turned her head and left angrily.
Nangong Lie stared at Li Xue, "Tell me, what happened tonight?"
Receiving Li Xue's look for help, Ah Shou smiled helplessly, "Xiaoxue, can you pour us a glass of red wine?"
"No problem!" Li Xue didn't even dare to look at Nangong Lie, walked around him, and left as if running away.
"What do you mean by this? Asking the princess to pour a glass doesn't count as serving the guests?" Nangong Lie sneered, walked over and sat down.
Ah Shou shrugged, "How can it be the same? She is my sister. Even if she gets married and becomes a princess, she is still my sister."
"Did your father-in-law ask you to come back?"
"Xiaoxue is getting married. I have to find time to return to China." As he said that, Ah Shou took out a paper bag and handed it to him, "This is your wedding gift."
Nangong Lie opened it and took a look, "A company? It's really a big deal."
"These should all belong to Xiaoxue. The difference is that the profits I give away will be multiplied several times."
Nangong Lie pursed his lips and asked, "Do you plan to return to China?"
Ah Shou knew what he meant, but he asked, "What are you going to do when you return home?"
"Come back and help me."
"Haha, haven't you already won Jiufang Ming? You have won over the capital of the four major families, do you still need our Li family?"
"What I need is not the Li family, but you."
Ah Shou smiled and approached ambiguously, "If you say that, it will make me misunderstand."
He knew in his heart that Nangong Lie's cleverness lay in his ability to plan ahead. Everything he was doing now was to prepare for when he ascended the throne in the future. Instead of working hard on those old people with conservative ideas, it was better to win over them in advance.
These young forces.
At this moment, Li Xue walked in with a cup in hand. When she saw this scene, she was shocked and stayed at the door, "Ah Shou... Lie... you guys..."
Nangong Lie cursed in a low voice and pushed Ah Shou away. Even if it was just a joke, he didn't want his wife to see him.
Although, he doesn't love this woman.
Ah Shou smiled and said calmly, "Xiaoxue, what you just saw was nothing. Nothing happened to me and Lie."
His explanation seemed very weak.
Nangong Lie glared at him, with a hint of anger in his evil eyes.
Li Xue did not dare to stay any longer, put down her things and left in a hurry. Before leaving, she carefully closed the door for the two of them.
"It's all your fault!" Nangong Lie poured two glasses of wine angrily and handed him the pitifully small glass.
"Hey, you are too stingy, this is not enough for me to moisten my throat."
“If you want to drink it, pour it yourself!”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, they all say that married men will become stingy, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Stop talking nonsense, what do you think about what I just said?"
Ah Shou sipped the red wine and said calmly, "You know very well that the heir of the Li family is Xiaoxue, not me. If you want to get help from the Li family, you'd better treat Xiaoxue well from now on."
Nangong Lie raised his eyebrows, his eyes bursting with sharp luster, "You seem to have something in your words."
"Xiaoxue is the treasure of our Li family. Just because she can endure hardships doesn't mean we can pretend to be deaf and dumb."
Nangong Liehan frowned, "What do you mean by that?"
Ah Shou smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to tell you. If Xiaoxue is unhappy and unhappy here, I will take her away without hesitation."
"Take her away?" Nangong Lie's eyes suddenly turned cold, "As a brother?"
"No," Ah Shou shook his head with a friendly smile, "As a man."
