"Xia Jinmian, why are you here again?"

Huang Ke was patrolling with the guards in person, and happened to bump into Xia Jinmian who was striding in, and immediately asked impatiently.

Xia Jinmian looked at him with deep eyes.

Huang Ke felt uncomfortable being watched.

He waved his hand to let the guards continue to patrol, and he approached Xia Jinmian.

Putting his arms around his chest, he looked at her through his nostrils: "Xia Jinmian, let's make a deal?"

Xia Jinmian rolled his eyes at him, lifted his foot and walked past him to the garden.

Huang Ke turned her head in disbelief, "Damn it? What's your attitude! This is my territory, and you are still so arrogant in my territory!? Xia Jinmian, stop!"

Xia Jinmian stopped and turned to look at him, "What deal?"

Huang Ke immediately smiled badly, approached and snorted triumphantly: "A deal that allows you to marry into a wealthy family, I decided that I will not separate you and Ye Mohan, but you, you want to help me reconcile with Lessing !"

Xia Jinmian smiled, but without warmth: "You think so beautifully."

The smirk on the corner of Huang Ke's mouth froze, and anger appeared on his face.

"Xia Jinmian, you... ah!" Huang Ke covered her shoulders and looked back, yelling casually, "Who doesn't have long eyes to hit me—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw his father walking in with his cronies.

In his father's hand, he was holding a slingshot, and he was still gesturing at him.

Huang Ke was so frightened that she "chuckled", hid behind Xia Jinmian, and raised her hands in surrender very cowardly.

"Father, I was wrong!"

Ou Huang's face was not very good-looking, he put away the slingshot, and approached with majestic steps.

Scolded in a cold voice!

"I heard you yelling at Xia Jinmian from afar, you have ignored your mother's words, please don't bully Xia Jinmian!"

Huang Ke seldom saw her father get angry, so she said aggrievedly: "I didn't bully her, I just want to negotiate a deal with her."

Ou Huang turned to look at Xia Jinmian, his sullen eyes returned to warmth, and he handed over the slingshot in his hand.

"Take it for fun. If he bullies you again, you can hit him with a slingshot."

Huang Ke came out from behind Xia Jinmian and said in disbelief, "Father, I am your real son, don't you love me?"

Ou Huang's majestic eyes narrowed, Huang Ke was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak anymore.

But my heart is not convinced!

Xia Jinmian looked at Ouhuang, suppressed the impulse in her heart, took the slingshot with her hands with reddish eyes, took two steps back, and bowed at ninety degrees.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ou Huang's pupils shrank for a moment without a trace, and said, "Xia Jinmian, follow me to the study."

"Father, I will go too." Huang Ke followed.

But at the door of the study, Ou Huang ordered: "Xia Jinmian come in with me, and the rest stay outside."

"Father, what about me?" Huang Ke asked dissatisfied.

Ou Huang glanced at Xia Jinmian, then at Huang Ke, pinched the center of his brows, and said impatiently, "Go as far as you can."

Huang Ke: "..."

When the study door was closed, Huang Ke couldn't wait any longer, and ran to find Shi Chun.

"Mother, something is wrong! Father Wang and Xia Jinmian went to the study alone!"

Shi Chun was sitting in the gazebo on the lake feeding the fish, and he didn't feel worried when he heard the words, "I'll just go."

"No, the father gave Xia Jinmian the slingshot he brought back from his grandfather. Usually, the toys that the father brought back from outside would be given to the queen mother to play with, but this time he gave it to Xia Jinmian casually. The father will not be... Don't fall in love with me?"

Shi Chun was holding the bait hand, turned his head and stared at Huang Ke coldly: "What did you say?"
