Chapter 431: That's not for sure

Liang Mingyu felt his hair stand on end.

"This time, I'm just going to discuss about repairing the road. I won't do anything, so you don't have to think too much about it." he said with an embarrassed smile.

Liang Mingmin was by his side, and he didn't plan to lay a hand on Shi Qingluo.

He could only hope that Xiao Hanzheng was not Liang Mingmin's type, or it would be troublesome.

Liang Mingmin sneered. "Forget it if you don't want to admit it."

She stood up first. "Let's quickly continue our journey after you're done eating."

Liang Mingyu, who was only half-full, remained silent.

His dislike for his younger sister increased by another level. She had never cared about other people's feelings.

Now, relying on his father, the prince, and her mother, the princess's love, she was exerting her dominance in King Jin's residence.

Hmph, when he was promoted in the future, he would definitely not allow her to be so arrogant and overbearing.

But now, he couldn't afford to offend this younger sister of his, so he could only put down his chopsticks sullenly, stand up, and follow.

A few days later, Xiao Hanzheng also received the news that Liang Mingyu and his sister had gone to Heyang County.

Seeing her little husband's cold expression, Shi Qingluo asked, "What's wrong?"

"Liang Mingyu brought his sister here." Xiao Hanzheng said, "They should be here to discuss the road construction."

"You don't look too happy." Shi Qingluo asked.

Xiao Hanzheng didn't try to hide it and sighed. "That princess is very unruly and difficult to deal with. Whatever she wants, she must get it by her side."

Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "Did she fall for you before?"

Xiao Hanzheng smiled bitterly. "Indeed."

Shi Qingluo did not expect such a thing to happen. "She has wooed you?"

Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. "Not really. When I was a secondary second-rank deputy general in the northern army back then, she sneaked out to play and encountered bandits. I happened to meet them and saved her. Then she kept pestering me, wanting me to be her gigolo. I didn't agree. She still wanted to use force and sent people to arrest me. I was lucky and managed to avoid it. I was even transferred back to the capital, so she didn't get her way. When I went to the capital, she wrote a lot of letters to me, trying to persuade me to return to the northern border. She said that she would ask King Jin to give me a good job and future, but I ignored her."

If it wasn't for the fact that King Jin and the emperor are like fire meeting water and that she might have been captured as a hostage if she came to the capital, she would have gone to the capital to capture me personally.

He was also very annoyed.

Shi Qingluo reached out and pinched Xiao Hanzheng's face. "Tsk, tsk, your face really attracts so many girls."

Xiao Hanzheng looked helpless. "Who knew she would do this? But I promise it has nothing to do with her."

Shi Qingluo let go of his face. "Will she still be interested in you this time?"

Xiao Hanzheng said with uncertainty, "I don't think so. This time, I didn't save her when she sneaked out to play and got into trouble."

Shi Qingluo pursed his lips. "That might not be the case."
