Chapter 48 You always owe me
"My father was the one who started it."
Cheng Sijin continued in a cold tone: "Father, you only think that my daughter has embarrassed you. Have you ever thought about what you have given me when I grow up?!"
"You! Be bold!"
Cheng Luzhi was furious: "What have I given you? Sixteen years! What you eat, drink, and wear is not mine?!"
Cheng Sijin looked at Cheng Luzhi's anger and embarrassment coldly, and his heart was full of distress and unworthiness for the original owner.
Now Cheng Sijin fully possesses the capital to fall out with Cheng Luzhi.
He simply let go and said, "Then let me ask you, father! Is it true that my daughter will break all the food, drink, and clothing she has spent in these years into silver and return it to you, so that we can clear everything?"
Cheng Luzhi obviously didn't expect Cheng Sijin to be so rebellious and crazy!
A burst of energy and blood surged upwards, and he pointed at Cheng Sijin with trembling fingers: "You! You, you simply have no regard for human ethics!"
Cheng Sijin continued: "We still can't settle things! You always owe me and my mother!"
Cheng Sijin, who had always been calm, suddenly became emotional: "Who should I go to to explain the lack of care and guidance in my childhood?"
"Why is it that my aunt is not happy to see that I am better than Cheng Siyu, so I secretly study medical books, practice calligraphy diligently behind everyone's back, and read through poetry books!"
"I've been careful to hide my clumsiness until now!" Cheng Sijin sneered and asked, "I didn't want it to become the reason for my father to question me!"
"Don't talk nonsense! Why did you drag Aunt He out? Even if I have wronged you! But she didn't!"
Cheng Luzhi's eyes widened angrily: "Without her, you might not have grown so big!"
While he was angry, Cheng Luzhi also had an answer to his curiosity.
It’s not resurrecting a corpse or seizing a body…
It's that this daughter has been very cunning since childhood and has hidden her clumsiness until now.
If it were someone else, Cheng Luzhi, he would definitely not believe that someone could hide it so well!
But! She is Su Qiuchi's daughter, so everything is possible!
Seeing that Cheng Luyi looked like he was being yelled at, Cheng Sijin took a deep breath and spoke again: "Does father have anything else to do? If not, my daughter will resign."
"Cheng Sijin, even if you gain the respect of the Queen Mother, Emperor and Prince, you are still the daughter of my Cheng family!"
Cheng Luzhi continued his previous anger and said with a cold face: "Copy the Cheng family's motto a hundred times and send it over in three days!"
Cheng Sijin narrowed his eyes and was about to speak when he heard the announcement from the butler outside: "Master, Prince Rui is here..."
King Rui again?
Cheng Luzhi frowned, but he didn't dare not welcome him!
I had to open the door quickly.
As soon as the door opened, he saw the jade-like Gu Yunsheng standing outside.
"I have met the prince." Cheng Luzhi hurriedly greeted him.
"Get up." Gu Yunsheng became increasingly dissatisfied with Cheng Luzhi's attitude, "I'm here to see Miss Cheng."
Cheng Luzhi's face turned pale for a moment, "Yes."
Then he turned to greet Cheng Sijin: "Why don't you come over and see the prince?"
Just as Cheng Sijin came over, Gu Yunsheng said: "Miss Cheng, there is no need to be polite."
Then he looked at Cheng Luzhi: "I was listening outside just now. Master Cheng wants to punish Miss Cheng again?"
"She..." Cheng Luzhi was so angry that he almost blurted out "Disobedience and criminal disregard of human ethics".
In the end, he finally came to his senses, rolled the words in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I misunderstood. I was worried about my daughter's safety, so I called her here to show my concern..."
At this time, having Cheng Siyu in the Cheng family is enough to make people laugh!
Only Cheng Sijin, who is famous in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, can support the Cheng family's reputation. If those words just blurted out, the Cheng family would have become the biggest joke in Kyoto City!
Gu Yunsheng almost laughed out loud when he saw Cheng Luzhi's reaction!
Still pretending to believe this argument, he asked: "Then, did I hear it wrong? Master Cheng did not punish Miss Cheng for copying the family rules?"
Cheng Luzhi quickly replied: "No, it's nothing."
"Miss Cheng? Did I hear wrongly?" Gu Yunsheng turned to look at Cheng Sijin again.
Cheng Sijin glanced at Cheng Luzhi. Cheng Luzhi looked extremely ugly, but he had to wink at Cheng Sijin.
After taking a deep look at Cheng Luzhi with a cold face, Cheng Sijin looked at Gu Yunsheng and said, "The prince heard wrong."
Cheng Luzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sir Cheng, I am here this time to discuss important matters with Miss Cheng, so I won't bother you anymore."
After Gu Yunsheng finished speaking, without waiting for a reply, he took the lead and walked out of the study in the direction of Mu Jinzhai.
"Daughter, please leave." Cheng Sijin raised his eyes and glanced at Cheng Luzhi before leaving the study.
After arriving at his own territory, Cheng Sijin felt much more at ease. He looked at Gu Yunsheng and said:
"My lord, please drink tea first. Please excuse me for a moment, my lord."
After saying that, he asked Taoye to serve tea, and Cheng Sijin simply washed and changed clothes.
Seeing that Cheng Sijin seemed to be in good condition, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
For two whole days, he barely slept a wink!
For the first time, he knew that worrying about someone was such a torture!
After hearing the news from Wan Yan who was secretly guarding Cheng Mansion that Cheng Sijin was back, he rushed over immediately.
Cheng Sijin moved very quickly, and within a moment, he had already changed his clothes and walked out.
He sat on another mahogany Taishi chair and looked at Gu Yunsheng and asked seriously: "Do you have anything to tell your maiden, Your Majesty?"
Strange! Gu Yunsheng has been looked up to by thousands of people since he was a child, and has always been like this!
But it was Cheng Sijin's attitude of not treating himself as a superior prince that made him feel extra at ease and comfortable.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
Gu Yunsheng looked at Cheng Sijin's face carefully, and spoke his concerned words first.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. My daughter is fine." Cheng Sijin replied politely.
"Looks like I've lost some weight..." Gu Yunsheng still spoke.
As soon as he said this, Cheng Sijin's stomach rumbled again.
The sound was particularly clear in the empty main room with only two people.
Cheng Sijin looked embarrassed, but Gu Yunsheng was slightly startled, and then couldn't help laughing: "Are you hungry?"
At this time, Tao Ye hurriedly broke a stew pot from the outside and put it next to Cheng Sijin:
"Miss, this is lotus seed soup. You need to put some food on your stomach first. We've already passed the food to the kitchen. You'll have it soon."
