You can't even catch a trivial fish, how dare you say such a thing?"
Young Master Liu's face froze, and he lifted the fishing rod in his hand with an angry expression.
He checked the bait on the hook, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the bait, he threw the bait into the water again.
"What's the rush? What's the rush? Don't you know you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry?"
Liu Zhi'an heard Mr. Liu's humming words and drank a glass of wine with a smile.
"Hehehe, then I will just wait and see how interesting the hot tofu you will catch later is."
"Old man, you have to be mentally prepared, otherwise your jaw will drop."
Liu Zhi'an raised his eyebrows and took a puff of dry cigarette with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, hahaha, interesting, interesting!"
Young Master Liu glanced at his float, which was still motionless, and picked up his wine glass half-heartedly.
"Old man, there is no bait to take the bait now, let's continue talking about the topic just now."
When Liu Zhi'an heard this, his face was slightly startled, and he rolled his eyes at Young Master Liu with disgust on his face.
"Just talking, what's there to talk about?
No matter how we continue talking, I will still say what I just said."
"Oh, is it so?"
"Nonsense, I'll borrow the question you just asked. Do you think I'm joking with you?"
Young Master Liu stared at Liu Zhi'an seriously, looked up and down for a few times, chuckled and shook his head.
"The way I look at you, old man, I don't think you are joking."
"That's alright. In that case, is there any need for us to continue talking?"
Young Master Liu narrowed his eyes and nodded noncommittally.
"If you let me do the talking, of course I think it is necessary to continue the conversation."
Liu Zhi'an looked embarrassed, turned around and glanced at Young Master Liu, and shook his head helplessly.
"Okay, okay, I'm really convinced by you. Just say it, just say it."
Looking at Liu Zhi'an who looked slightly helpless, Mr. Liu chuckled and took out the tobacco bag from his waist, and silently lit a pot of shredded tobacco.
"Old man, it doesn't matter whether you feel bored or not.
I still want to ask you one more time, do you really think it’s good for this boy Chengzhi to inherit the throne?"
Liu Zhi'an frowned slightly, his eyes were silent for a moment, then he picked up a peanut from the plate and threw it into his mouth.
"Is it important?"
Young Master Liu looked stunned and looked towards Liu Zhi'an with doubt in his eyes.
"Huh? My young master, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Liu Zhi'an opened his mouth and took a puff of dry cigarette. He glanced sideways at Young Master Liu with a faint smile.
"Why, is it difficult to understand what I said?"
"I seem to understand, but I don't seem to understand."
"You bastard, I want to ask you about your intention to appoint this boy Chengzhi as the crown prince and heirloom, and let him inherit that chair in the future.
Is my opinion really important to you?
I think Chengzhi is a suitable child, what should you do?
I think this guy Chengzhi is not suitable, what should you do?"
Young Master Liu looked at Liu Zhi'an, who looked like an old man, and frowned subconsciously.
"This! I...I..."
Seeing Young Master Liu's hesitant expression, unable to explain why, Liu Zhi'an chuckled, shook his head, raised his glass and gestured to Young Master Liu.
"Come, let's have a drink."
Young Master Liu pursed his lips and immediately raised his glass in response.
"Old man, I would like to propose a toast to you."
Liu Zhi'an put down the wine glass, with a faint smile on his lips, and filled the pot with two more drinks.
"Look, you yourself hesitated about appointing this boy Chengzhi as your successor.
In this case, does my opinion on this matter really matter to you?
If I tell you that Chengzhi is not suitable to be the crown prince, will you make changes based on my advice?
On the contrary, let me tell you, your decision is very correct. This child Chengzhi is very suitable to be appointed as the crown prince and crown prince, and very suitable to become the next emperor of my Dalong.
Do you really have no worries at all in your heart?"
As Liu Zhi'an spoke, he picked up his wine glass and gestured to Young Master Liu again.
"Come, let's have another drink."
Young Master Liu nodded silently and picked up his wine glass with a sad expression.
"Old man, I would like to toast you with another drink."
Young Master Liu swallowed the drink in his mouth and immediately picked up the pot to refill the old man and himself a glass of wine.
Liu Zhi'an pinched a peanut and threw it into his mouth, then leaned over and knocked out the ashes from the smoke pot.
"Bastard, let me say so.
If you really didn't have the slightest concern in your heart, you wouldn't keep asking me this question over and over again."
Young Master Liu was startled. He looked at Liu Zhi'an and pursed his lips for a long time, and finally just sighed softly.
"I...I...sigh..."
"Liu Yuan."
"Hey, sir?"
"then."
"yes."
Liu Zhi'an handed the fishing rod in his hand to Liu Yuan, stood up and stretched, pacing slowly on the unmelted snow by the river with his hands behind his back.
"Bastard, do you know? Ever since you took that position, your personality has changed a bit."
Liu Mingzhi frowned and looked up at Liu Zhi'an.
"Have I changed? Have I changed?"
Liu Zhi'an lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at Mr. Liu, smiled lightly and nodded.
"It has changed. The change is not small."
Liu Mingzhi thought in silence for a long time, then looked up at Liu Zhi'an again.
"Old man, what has become of me, young master? Have I become suspicious by nature?"
Liu Zhi'an raised his eyebrows and shook his head with a smile.
"Of course not. Before you sat on that chair, your boy was also suspicious by nature."
"Ah? That's what you said, old man, how have I changed, young master?"
Liu Zhi'an stopped and looked at Young Master Liu with a smile.
"I have become less confident."
"What? Becoming less confident?"
"Yes, I have become less confident."
Young Master Liu frowned, glanced at the float which was still motionless, casually placed the fishing rod on the wooden support, stood up and looked towards Liu Zhi'an with a puzzled look on his face.
"This! This! Where do you start talking about this?"
