Liu Zhao sneered, "Master Sheng, are you kidding me? Even if I agree, do you think the other families will agree? Why don't we talk about something practical?"

The few people who followed Liu Zhao in didn't say a word when they heard themselves mentioned. They just drank tea silently. Of course, this tea was brought by themselves.

They don't like the people in the inn.

"I want to live, and Lord Liu should also know that this is a condition that cannot be compromised." Sheng Changan said in a firm tone. Even though she knew that Liu Zhao would not let her return to Guangping so easily, she had to find another life-saving talisman for herself in the capital.

Liu Zhao spun the teacup lightly. "Of course I know. As long as Lord Sheng hands over the explosives, we can discuss the rest after Lord Sheng returns to Guangping."

As if knowing that Sheng Changan would not trust him, he slowly said: "My eldest brother is still in the hands of Lord Sheng, how about this weight?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the noble families looked at Liu Zhao in surprise. They actually used their eldest brother to cover this eventuality. No one knew whether this man was cruel or did it on purpose.

Unfortunately, it was completely invisible on Liu Zhao's face, but they still remembered the matter.

It would be fine if he had a backup plan, but if not, it would be too cruel for him to even spare his own elder brother.

Sheng Changan naturally did not miss the importance of the lawsuit in the eyes of these young masters from aristocratic families, but she was also very clear that this elder brother really did not mean much to him.

"Lord Sheng should rest assured. Even if I have any thoughts, my father will definitely not allow it." He said slowly, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Sheng Changan raised her eyes. Liu Zhao was indeed not credible. It should be said that the Liu family was not necessarily trustworthy either. For her, she just needed a game like this.

"Okay, but I want to see people from Shengjia Village appear outside the city tomorrow," Sheng Changan agreed without hesitation.

"In that case, we won't sign a document. I believe in Lord Sheng's character and hope he won't let me down." Liu Zhao stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and said these few words.

What surprised Sheng Changan was that these noble families, apart from showing a condescending look, didn't say a word, as if... everything was up to Liu Zhao.

But...if they really trusted me so much, would these people still be here? Sheng Changan lowered his eyes and said nothing.

In the eyes of the aristocratic families, Sheng Changan is an outsider to them, but if it only refers to them, the Liu family is an outsider again.

The aristocratic family has been standing for so many years and it is not a pushover.

"Are you sure she won't go back on her word?" Feng Li was a little displeased. He had not discussed with them about letting Sheng Changan go, but he had just agreed to it.

"Master Feng, do you think Sheng Changan is a fool? We want what she has, so we have to give her some benefits. What's more, with so many of us here, how can we let her escape from this trap?"

Liu Zhao advised in a cold voice that he had never thought about letting anyone return safely from the beginning to the end, he just reached a proposal that both parties knew.

Feng Li looked at Liu Zhao coldly. It was no wonder that he disliked this man. Before he appeared, the Feng family was the real head of the aristocratic family.

No one dared to refute anything he said, it was just a pity that this accident happened.

But he also knew that what this person said made sense. Moreover, what they wanted was what their father had personally instructed them to do. He could only swallow his anger and tilted his head slightly. "Let our people pay attention."

He wouldn't put all his hopes on one person.

Sheng Changan unfolded the letter with an unpredictable expression, the fish had taken the bait...
