Just then, Quan Zexi said, “Of course, what I’m saying doesn’t include that girl. I do respect her.”
Jun Yexuan frowned deeply and he gritted his teeth, “Duke, you’re old enough to be her father!”
If he didn’t suspect this man was his father-in-law, Jun Yexuan might’ve hit him.
Qi Yusen’s face darkened as well, “Duke, please respect yourself.”
Quan Zexi cursed loudly, “You two bastards! What are you thinking?! You think I’m soone with no moral?!”
“I am simply saying she’s the only girl I respect. I am not into other won!”
“Why do you think respect ans interest?! If I didn’t make that comnt and instead, claid that she too, isn’t good enough, would you let live?! Huh?!”
Jun Yexuan thought, good. Very good. Another note for his notebook.
The group stopped bothering Quan Zexi about whether or not he was Qiao Qing’s father. Instead, they focused on the people outside.
By now, Qiao Qing and Ruan Ming had greeted each other and sat down.
Beside Ruan Ming, Luo Huai’an starrf at Qiao Qing’s face. He felt like she looked familiar. Luckily, as Luo Chen’s temporary father who’d always been busy with work, he’s never seen Qiao Qing much. Now that Qiao Qing was dressed as a man, it was even harder for him to recognize her.
Ruan Ming checked out Qiao Qing as well and couldn’t help but to ask, “God of Gun, dare I ask your na?”
Qiao Qing crossed her arms and looked at him with her chin up, “Is that important to you?”
Ruan Ming was embarrassed, “I’m sorry. I just feel like you’re familiar sohow. Have we t sowhere?”
Qiao Qing smiled, “I’m sure I haven’t t you before. Plus, there are many people who look similar in this world, right?”
“That’s true.” Ruan Ming smiled kindly, “Then, God of Gun, you said you’d only agree to support if I et several conditions. I must ask, what conditions are you talking about?”
Qiao Qing, “You must not start a war and hurt the innocent citizens.”
Ruan Ming froze and showed much appreciation, “I didn’t know you had so much kindness in you. This doesn’t interfere with what I originally intended. I have my own people and don’t want to see them hurt. I simply want to drag Yin Lei down.”
Qiao Qing then said, “I have another condition. You are allowed to strip the Yin empire of power. You can even make Yin Lei a commoner and jail his people. However, you cannot kill them.”
Ruan Ming froze, “Are you related to the Emperor sohow?”
“Yes.” Qiao Qing admitted, “So, no matter how much I hate him, I still need him alive.”
Jun Yexuan felt his heart warm up.
He knew she was doing this for him.
Ruan Ming was silent.
Qiao Qing bluntly reminded him, “You won’t even have the chance to strip him of power if you disagree.”
Ruan Ming realized the reality and responded, “I agree with you. Though he was the evildoer who started it all, my child is safe and grown-up. I am also still the leader of Country Ruan.”
“All his life, that person only cared about power. To end his reign and shove him down from his seat may be worse to him than death.”
“But, God of Gun, you must know that the true ruler of the Country of Sumr isn’t the Emperor – it’s the Quan family. I want to end the monarch and give the citizens peace. But how do I do all this without alerting the Quan family?”
Qiao Qing took a second to respond, “The relationship between the Quan family and the Emperor has never been great. Even now, we aren’t sure if they’re friends or foes. If the Quan family doesn’t interfere with what you’re doing, then all is well. If they do, then you can get rid of them too.”
Quan Zexi, “…”
