Zhong Daolong looked at Sheng Xinhuai with a surprised look on his face and asked, "Could it be that you and Bandit Tang are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?"
He has been doubting his daughter, but the truth is that there is someone else?
Why are the relationships between young people so complicated?
Zhong Tianyi's expression was gloomy. The woman he couldn't get, actually fell in love with an old homeless man?
This made it difficult for the noble Second Prince to accept, like a green minotaur.
Bah bah bah.
What's wrong with Zhong Tianyi?
Why is Sheng Xinhuai's vision so bad? Moreover, it has such a strong taste.
What can that guy bring to her?
Zhong Tianque's expression remained normal. He didn't care at all who Tang Bandit's boyfriend was.
It was the news that Sheng Xinhuai broke that made him a little surprised.
The daughter of the Prime Minister's family likes Tang Bandit. If the two really get together, this Tang Bandit is not without merit.
It seems that I can't be too indifferent to him, otherwise it will take more time to repair the relationship in the future.
"We can't be considered boyfriend and girlfriend." Sheng Xinhuai admitted openly and said, "We have dated a few times, drank coffee a few times, and watched a few movies. We are in the developing ambiguous period. As for whether we can be together We still have to get along with each other for a while to see where we go."
Sheng Xinhuai didn't dare to speak too harshly.
Even if they don't get together in the future, it can be said that their personalities are not suitable for each other.
Besides, who stipulates that you must get married if you fall in love?
Some people want a lifelong relationship, while others want a night of passion.
The needs are just different.
Sheng Xinhuai looked around, then looked at Zhong Daolong and said, "Uncle Zhong, my father doesn't know about this yet. You have to keep it a secret for me."
"What? Are you afraid that Lao Sheng won't agree?" Zhong Daolong asked with interest.
If it weren't for his own daughter, the stone in his heart would fall to the ground, and his tone of voice would be much more relaxed.
"That old antique of his will definitely not agree." Sheng Xinhuai said aloud: "He naturally hopes that I find someone who is a good match. However, things like relationships still depend on fate. Only if a man and a woman are in love with each other can they be considered a perfect match. A truly good marriage will only last long in the future. Uncle Zhong, do you think so?"
Zhong Daolong did not jump into her trap and said: "It's not so absolute. Back then, Fenghuang's mother and I were also arranged to get married by our family. At that time, neither of us were familiar with each other and we were unwilling. However, when we really got together, we became mutually exclusive. After understanding this, won’t your life be a good one?”
"You, young people, always want to chase love, but the feelings your parents give you are not necessarily wrong. What is the old saying? If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences."
"What Uncle Zhong said makes sense." Sheng Xinhuai nodded and said, "I will think about it carefully."
"It turns out that my cousin and Tang Bandit are not in that kind of relationship." Yu Huoshui adjusted his glasses and said with a smile: "I saw that my cousin did not hesitate to insert a knife into his chest in order to give up his place in Bailu Academy. I saw that scene At that time, I was really moved."
"I also misunderstood at the time. I thought you two were in that kind of relationship. If we were really in a relationship, my cousin would lose if he lost. But if you don't have that kind of relationship, how could you turn your elbows outward? You don't know , how long did I prepare and how much time and energy did I spend in order to get this recruitment quota at Egret Academy?"
This was the first time Yu Huoshui opened his mouth to speak after Phoenix arrived.
He was resentful towards Phoenix, so he expressed his dissatisfaction directly.
He knew very well that in front of his uncle Zhong Daolong, he must not even think about hiding anything.
Be frank and direct, even if you are naive, he will only think that you are still young and your thinking is not mature enough.
It would be terrible if he thought you were a schemer.
Zhong Daolong pointed at Yu Huoshui and said to Phoenix: "Your cousin was very angry today. He said that he has never been so embarrassed in his life. I heard that he was attacked by someone without even passing the second level?"
Fenghuang nodded, looked at Yu Huoshui and said, "I never thought that something like this would happen. Tang Bandit is just a bit of a vengeful person. When he senses other people's hostility, he will strike first."
"After all, you come from the old land. If you don't be more aggressive in a place where people eat people, you won't be able to survive at all."
"When you stood up to isolate him, I just wanted to remind you. But before I could, cousin, you were the same. Why weren't you alert at all when you were participating in such an important assessment? How could you let others get close to you? Knife It was inserted into my chest, and I didn’t even take any precautions. This shouldn’t be the case.”
"."
Yu Huoshui felt his chest swelling and pain.
I came here to ask for an explanation, but what’s the result?
Facts aside, is it all my fault?
Chen Fenglei sent over the opened red wine, and Zhong Daolong enthusiastically invited everyone to taste it, saying: "Not many of this wine exist in the world, and I only have these two bottles here. Come, let's taste it together, and see Let’s see how well it’s saved.”
"Thank you, Uncle Zhong." Sheng Xinhuai likes to drink. He picked up the wine glass and smelled the aroma, and said, "The fruity aroma is very strong and the color is very beautiful. It seems to be well preserved."
"Try to take a sip." Zhong Daolong said.
Everyone raised a glass together and felt the changes in the body of the wine in the mouth.
"The layering is very rich. When you put it in your mouth, it's like holding an orchard in your mouth." Sheng Xinhuai praised it.
"This is a good metaphor." Zhong Daolong said with a smile: "Since you like it, drink more. Don't worry, I will not take the initiative to tell Lao Sheng about you and that Tang bandit."
"However, if Lao Sheng takes the initiative to ask, then I can only tell the truth. As you know, Jun Wuyan. I can't lie to my old buddy."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhong. You have helped me a lot. Come on, let me toast you."
"cheers."
After finishing two bottles of Pyramid, Zhong Daolong said aloud: "I am old and cannot bear the power of alcohol. Phoenix has exhausted his physical strength today and cannot drink more. Go back and rest early."
"Okay. Good night, dad." Phoenix got up and said goodbye.
"Good night, Uncle Zhong. Thank you for the nice wine you bought me today." Sheng Xinhuai chose to leave with Fenghuang.
After all, she had to sleep with Phoenix at night.
After everyone left, Zhong Daolong said to Chen Fenglei, who was helping to clean up the mess: "Go to the Empire's First Military Academy and get the assessment video from Egret Academy."
"Yes." Chen Fenglei agreed: "I asked them to send a copy in the afternoon. Thinking that maybe the monarch wanted to see how the princess performed in the assessment, I sent the assessment video to the monarch's mobile phone. The Lord is always available to appreciate.”
Zhong Daolong is very satisfied with Chen Fenglei's performance. He can sense his own concerns and put many things forward, which proves that he is very competent as a general manager.
"Do you believe it?" Zhong Daolong suddenly asked.
Chen Fenglei was stunned for a moment and then grinned and said: "If the king believes it, I believe it. If the king doesn't believe it, I don't believe it either."
Zhong Daolong was silent for a moment and said, "It's okay. You all should go down and rest."
"Yes." Chen Fenglei bowed and agreed, then walked quickly outside.
Zhong Daolong found the assessment video on his mobile phone and stretched out his finger to open it, but finally chose to delete it.

Zhong Tianyi looked at Zhong Tianque, who was walking in front with his head held high, and said, "Brother, Huoshui and I are going out for a drink. Do you want to come with us? We just got a little excited after drinking, how can we go back to sleep at this time?"
"I'm not going. I still have things to deal with when I get back. You go and drink." Zhong Tianque refused without hesitation.
"It's really boring." Zhong Tianyi said jokingly: "To be successful in life, you must have all the fun. Once you take over the position under your father's butt, you will never have such an opportunity again."
Zhong Tianque glanced at Zhong Tianyi and said, "Your fun is different from mine. I think going out to drink is boring."
"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything." Zhong Tianyi raised his hands in surrender.
After Zhong Tianque left, Yu Huoshui looked at his back and asked, "Are you really going to give up that position to him? Second brother, don't you think about it at all?"
"What's the use of thinking? Didn't you see? The old man gave him all the important work to handle, and also took him with him to observe politics and study. Every day I was drunk and dreaming, nostalgic for the flowers, even Sheng Xinhuai looked at such a woman If you can’t fuck me, let alone that one.”
"Hehehe, second brother really believes that Sheng Xinhuai is having an affair with that Tang bandit?"
"Can what she admitted personally be false?" Zhong Tianyi rolled his eyes and walked ahead with his hands in his pockets.
"I think this is a cover-up trick they are playing." Yu Huoshui followed Zhong Tianyi and whispered.
"Oh? What do you say?"
"Second brother, do you believe Fenghuang's explanation?" Yu Huoshui did not answer Zhong Tianyi's question, but raised his own question.
"So what if I believe it? So what if I don't believe it? The most important thing is whether the person in our family believes it or not."
"Then do you think he believes it or not?"
Zhong Tianyi pondered for a moment and said, "I don't believe it."
"Why?"
"Didn't you notice? After Phoenix explained, he never asked any questions again. It was as if the matter was revealed so casually."
"Doesn't this mean that my uncle believes it?"
"No, the answer has already been determined, so why bother?"
"."
Yu Huoshui looked at Zhong Tianyi and said, "Since the relationship between Fenghuang and Tang Bandit is extraordinary, then isn't Sheng Xinhuai's appearance very suspicious?"
"I know." Zhong Tianyi turned to look at Yu Huoshui and said, "She would rather let herself take on such a role than get closer to me. Do you think I, the second prince, am a failure?"
"."
——
Back at Fenghuang Villa, Fenghuang and Sheng Xinhuai kicked off their shoes and stepped barefoot on the soft white fox fur carpet.
There is a snowfield above the new star, and a white fox grows on the snowfield. The fur of this fox is crystal clear and soft, making it a top material for making carpets. Deeply loved by the nobles above Xinxing.
"Get the wine, get the wine quickly." Sheng Xinhuai slumped down on the sofa and immediately shouted: "Your dad is too stingy. Who can drink with so much wine? I'm embarrassed to drink too fast. You don't know how uncomfortable it is to hold back. Anything that comes to an abrupt end is disappointing."
Fenghuang asked the servant to bring champagne, looked at Sheng Xinhuai and said, "You shouldn't have said that."
Sheng Xinhuai looked into Fenghuang's eyes and said jokingly, "What? Are you jealous? Shouldn't I say in front of them that Tang Bandit and I are in a relationship?"
"Do you think they will believe it?" Phoenix asked.
"I don't believe it." Sheng Xinhuai said simply and neatly: "It's okay to deceive others, but we don't have enough skills to deceive those few people."
"Since you know they don't believe it, why do you still say that? Aren't you getting yourself into a quagmire?" Phoenix said reproachfully.
"You guys are wallowing in the mire, why are you standing on the shore all alone? I'm going to jump in too and get myself covered in mud." Sheng Xinhuai drank the champagne and said, "At least, after I expressed my stance, , they can’t ask you any more questions, let’s take one second at a time to feel comfortable, and we’ll talk about the rest later.”
"That's true." Phoenix took a sip of the champagne and said loudly: "Within the scope of his tolerance, send him to a higher position as much as possible. I hope everything is okay. worth it."
"It must be worth it. You did these things, but he still wasn't moved to tears? Did he call you? Did he confess to you?"
"He said he wanted to see me." Phoenix said.
"Hey hey hey, I know. When will we meet? Isn't it a good time to come? Should I sleep with him or you sleep with him tonight?"
"."
——
When Tang Bandi and Xiao Pang returned to the courtyard, they immediately felt at ease and comfortable.
No wonder people say that a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse. No matter how nice it is outside, it is not as good as the feeling of going home.
"I'm fine. You can go back and rest." Tang Bandi said.
"Brother, are you really okay?" Xiaopang asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Tang Bandit said. "I've been lying down in the recuperation cabin, and my energy has almost recovered. After sleeping all night, I can get up and practice the exercises tomorrow morning."
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry." Tang Bandit said. He looked at Xiaopang and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I haven't eaten yet tonight." Xiaopang said, "But I can ask the robot to help make some food..."
"Okay." Tang Bandi nodded in agreement. He was not in the mood to cook now and wanted to get in touch with Phoenix as soon as possible. "You deal with it for one night first, and I'll prepare something delicious for you tomorrow morning."
"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow." Xiaopang said.
Tang Bandit returned to the second floor and was about to open the door when he suddenly felt a sense of danger.
He held the dagger in his hand and rushed in
The old man was sitting at his desk looking at him with a vulgar look on his face, smiling like a sunflower.
Xiaopang heard the sound of banging on the door above and shouted loudly: "Brother, what happened? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Tang Bandit said, "I killed a big rat."
"Oh." Xiaopang responded.
Tang Bandit took back the dagger, closed and locked the door to the room, then looked at the old man and asked, "Why are you here?"
