Li Qingluo suddenly felt nauseous as if he had swallowed a fly.

Knowing that Zhuang Sanlang's heart is completely with Li Qingzhu, I hope that my grandmother and her scumbag father will stop wasting time!

"Que'er, go to Ziwei Hall..."

When we got to the front yard, dinner was set out in the study.

Seeing that Qu was not there and Zhuang Sanlang was sitting in the room, Li Qingluo wanted to turn around and leave.

Is there something wrong with her father's brain?

This happened in the general's mansion, and he actually put his own daughter and a foreign man together at the same table. If this were to get out, everyone in Jinling City would laugh their heads off!

This kind of thing cannot be done even in the mountains!

Even if he is not polite, he shouldn't act so absurdly!

The unhappiness on Li Qingluo's face was instantly revealed without any concealment.

And it seems that Li Chaojing still wants to arrange this marriage with the Zhuang family for himself?

But why?

Hasn't he always loved his adopted daughter Li Qingzhu immensely, just like Qu and Li Kechuan?

Li Qingluo will never forget the time when he saw Li Qingzhu acting coquettishly beside them in the front yard after his soul left his body in his previous life.

The gentle smile on Li Chaojing's face reached his eyes, showing a tenderness and doting that she had never seen before.

He loves her so much, but he wants to arrange Li Qingzhu's marriage for himself. Li Qingluo feels that there must be something fishy going on!

Even if Li Chaojing was aware that there was something wrong with Li Qingzhu, he certainly could not confirm the relationship between Li Qingzhu and Prince Yun at this moment, otherwise he would have dealt with Li Qingzhu long ago.

But even so, with Li Qingzhu's return, the marriage that has not yet been finalized should still be Li Qingzhu's.

Did he do this because he thought this marriage was a compensation for his biological daughter?

After Li Qingluo gave Li Chaojing a rough greeting, he pretended not to know Zhuang Sanlang and stood aside like a wooden stake.

Li Chaojing paid no attention to Li Qingluo's perfunctory expression and said with a gentle smile, "Luo'er, please sit down. This is Sanlang, have you met him?"

Li Qingluo: "Father, you're joking. How could I have ever seen Sanlang? I don't even know this gentleman."

Zhuang Saburo, who was also unhappy, said: "..."

She is really good at telling lies with her eyes open!

Besides, who is she showing that expression to?

If she is not happy to see him, does she think he is happy to see her?

If her mother had not been moved by her persistence and deep love, her family would have already made the decision with the Li family. This would have been a real bargain for her!

However, even if he died, he would never let Zhu'er down.

Zhuang Wei secretly made a vow in his heart, but then he heard Li Chaojing say, "Both children, don't be unhappy."

"I invited you two to dinner today, and I have no special intention. It's just that Sanlang will be staying at home soon, so I suddenly feel a little emotional."

"Luo'er, just treat Sanlang as an ordinary brother from an old friend's family. There's no need to get hung up on those little details."

Li Qingluo had not sat down yet, but was standing aside, looking as if he was listening obediently to Li Chaojing's lecture.

Seeing that he had no way of asking his own daughter to come to his aid, Li Chaojing had to give up temporarily.

Li Chaojing sighed: "Sanlang, do you still remember when you were three years old and followed your grandmother to Zhaoxia Temple?"

"It was during that time that the marriage between your family and our General's Mansion came about. Back then, when you were still in your mother's womb, he had already seen you countless times. Back then, he had also jokingly said that if your mother was pregnant with a girl, he would marry her."

There was no trace of shyness on Li Qingluo's face, but rather embarrassment.

Her father's expression of wanting to get engaged to the Marquis of Zhongyi was really too ugly.

It would be fine if she had known Zhuang Wei since childhood, but it was obvious that she and Zhuang Wei grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and the person they were in love with was Li Qingzhu.

Do you really think she is willing to eat anything disgusting?

Even though she had never seen the world, she knew that unfaithful beasts were useless!

What’s more, he is the future husband?

Not only will she not be grateful, she will also feel deeply disgusted!

"Father, that happened many years ago. But the events you mentioned happened to coincide with the engagement between Mr. Zhuang and Sister Zhu'er. It can be considered as their fate."

Li Chaojing glared at Li Qingluo.

This silly girl, doesn't she understand that she has to correct this wrong marriage?

However, before Li Chaojing could say anything else, Li Kechuan's voice came from outside.

"Father, I heard you were hosting a banquet for Sanlang and ordered delicious dishes from Zuixianlou. Why didn't you invite your son to join you?"

As Li Kechuan was pushed in, Li Qingzhu followed behind him.

"Jewel!"

Zhuang Wei, who had been silent all this time, now had his eyes filled with surprise. He immediately stood up and rushed to Li Qingzhu.

"Zhu'er, why are you here? Ah, Zhu'er, don't misunderstand me. I just wanted to have a meal with my uncle. I, I didn't expect her to come... Zhu'er, please don't be angry with me, okay?"

Li Qingzhu forced a smile and said, "Sanlang, what are you talking about? Why should I be angry? Father must have his own reasons for making such an arrangement..."

Although Li Qingzhu felt very jealous, she was actually happy to see this happen.

If the marriage between Liu Cao'er and the Marquis of Zhongyi can be settled quickly, she will be able to discuss marriage with His Royal Highness Prince Yun!

She hasn't seen His Highness for quite some time since she returned home.

I wonder if His Highness is still thinking about her?

Li Qingzhu felt as uncomfortable as if she were being scratched by a cat.

I can't let go of this, but I can't forget that.

Li Chaojing's face darkened. He looked at his uninvited children and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Looking at Li Chaojing, Li Qingzhu's face was full of grievance.

"Daddy, did Zhu'er do anything wrong? Since Zhu'er returned home, Daddy has ignored her. Zhu'er can't stand it anymore. Please, Daddy, just talk to her and make things clear!"

"If Zhu'er has done anything wrong, I will accept whatever punishment Daddy gives me!"

Li Qingzhu knelt on the ground with tears on her face, crying like she was too weak to take care of herself. Li Kechuan and Zhuang Wei's faces were instantly filled with heartache.

Zhuang Wei couldn't help but stand up and took a half step forward: "Zhu'er, you...Uncle Li, Zhu'er has suffered a lot, why do you still treat her like this?"

Li Kechuan: "Father, did you misunderstand Zhu'er?"

Li Chaojing looked at Zhuang Sanlang, then at Li Kechuan, and then at his adopted daughter who was kneeling on the ground crying. A strong sense of strangeness arose in his heart.

Is she trying to force herself as a father today?

Good, that’s really great!

He hadn't even investigated the matter between her and Prince Yun, yet she had the guts to come to him on her own. Did she think that someone was backing her up, so she could even control him, Li Chaojing?!

"Since Zhu'er wants me to ask you something, then Zhu'er will stay."

"Luo'er, all of you get out."

Li Qingluo didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around and left immediately.

But when she passed by Li Kechuan, she heard him say, "Don't be complacent...just wait and see."
