Xiao Zheng was still silent.
But his gaze was very cautious as he stared at Qiu Shou.
He had never guessed Lin Laoyao's thoughts. And never understood Qiu Shou's thoughts.
Even though from his interactions with Qiu Shou, she had helped Xiao Zheng a lot. But that did not mean she was willing to compromise for Shang Yao.
On this point, Qiu Shou was very similar to His Majesty Ling Lai.
They had their own standpoints and would not change their views or decisions for someone they did not value.
For example, this time, Shang Jingtian actually asked Qiu Shou for help. Then it could be imagined that Shang Jingtian must have offered a sky-high price. Otherwise, he would not have asked Qiu Shou.
Then — — would Qiu Shou agree?
If she agreed, then Shang Jingtian and Qiu Shou would join hands to kill Shang Yao. Then to Shang Yao, it would be a hopeless situation.
Xiao Zheng breathed out, pursing his lips: "What does Boss Qiu mean?"
Qiu Shou said charmingly: "To be honest, Shang Jingtian's offer is very tempting. Even though he has done a few things to Zhao clan. But to us, other than revenge, there is nothing that cannot be forgiven. As long as we can afford it, as long as — — we can help Zhao clan take revenge. "
If Shang Yao dies, Yan clan will be finished!
And Shang Jingtian would not care about Yan clan's survival at all. His Shang clan was never Zhao clan's target of revenge!
He was reborn.
But he pushed the entire Yan clan into the abyss!
It seemed that Qiu Shou had no reason to refuse.
Xiao Zheng stared at Qiu Shou: "I hope you can refuse."
"Give me a reason." Qiu Shou said slowly.
"I will not let Shang Jingtian succeed." Xiao Zheng said word by word. "If he dares to do that, I will kill him."
"Shang Jingtian knows you will do that. So his request to me is to stop you. "Qiu Shou's eyes moved. "As long as he stops you, as long as you do not hinder him. He is confident that he can cripple Shang Yao. "
It was a good choice.
For either side, there wouldn't be too much of a conflict of interest. Except for Shang Yao who was shrouded in dark clouds.
"Actually, Boss Xiao, you owe me a lot of favors," Qiu Shou said charmingly. "If I were to ask you to stay out of this matter, I would have to ask you to stay out of it. Isn't it only natural? "
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head firmly, "No."
"So, Boss Xiao doesn't want to admit it?" Qiu Shou narrowed his eyes and asked.
"There are some things I can stand on Boss Qiu's side, but there are some things I can't do," Xiao Zheng said, pursing his lips.
"In Boss Xiao's heart, Shang Yao is more important than me? Qiu Shou's voice gradually turned cold.
"I'm not comparing you and Shang Yao." Xiao Zheng said word by word. "I only care about one word."
"What word?" Qiu Shou asked.
"Morality." Xiao Zheng said each word forcefully. "For me, there aren't many things in this world that are worth cherishing. But I want to insist on the word 'morality'. At least within the scope of my ability. I don't want to be criticized by others. "
"Similarly, if there is a day in the future when Boss Qiu needs my help, I will stand up without hesitation." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said.
"Morality?"
Qiu Shou frowned and played with these two words. After a long time, she said with a faint smile, "So, after working so hard for so long, all we got was Boss Xiao's morality?"
After a short pause, Qiu Shou seemed to mock herself and said, "I don't know if Miss Shang still needs Boss Xiao's help after getting the answer."
For a moment, Xiao Zheng's heart trembled.
He finally understood why Qiu Shou was here.
Qiu Shou wasn't really here to threaten him or tell him that she was going to kill Shang Yao.
She was here for an answer.
An answer that Xiao Zheng gave to protect Shang Yao.
This answer was the answer.
Shang Yao's answer was Qiu Shou's answer.
But this answer didn't satisfy Qiu Shou.
Morality?
To Qiu Shou, these two words were like a knife that ruthlessly stabbed into her heart.
When it was pulled out, it was dripping with blood.
Xiao Zheng opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
After a long time, Qiu Shou took the initiative to speak again, "Boss Xiao, don't worry. I, Qiu Shou, am not that despicable. I, Shang Jingtian, disregarded family for the sake of ambition. I, Qiu Shou, will not help the wicked for the sake of revenge. "
"Moreover, why would I make things difficult for Boss Xiao for the sake of a mere Shang Jingtian?" Qiu Shou slowly stood up, a charming smile returned on her face. But in those cold beautiful eyes, there was a hint of sadness.
She got the answer. It was hard to accept, but it was a definite answer.
Morality?
That was a word worth pondering.
Lin Huayin, just how important were you in his heart? How could he so cruelly throw away one beauty after another?
Turning a heart full of tenderness into righteousness and righteousness?
That didn't make sense.
What Lin Huayin could give to Xiao Zheng, any woman by his side could. No matter if it was what Xiao Zheng cared about, or what Xiao Zheng didn't care about.
Objectively speaking, apart from entering Xiao Zheng's heart early, Lin Huayin didn't have any other advantages. In fact, she couldn't even establish a relationship with Xiao Zheng as quickly as Blue Heart.
But she won.
She won beautifully.
No one dared to compete with her for Xiao Zheng, and it seemed that they couldn't.
No matter if it was the dark Sofia or the elegant and bloodthirsty Emperor Ling Lai. In their own fields, they were dragons and phoenixes among men, bright stars that attracted the attention of tens of thousands of people. But in Xiao Zheng's heart, who could compete with Lin Huayin?
After dinner. Xiao Zheng held Old Lin's hand as they walked in the garden. The setting sun shone on the two of them, forming long shadows.
Young Master An skipped behind the couple, not too close nor too far, maintaining a distance that someone of his age couldn't handle.
But Young Master An was just so sensible, and he didn't cause trouble for his parents. A satisfied and blissful smile appeared on his beautiful face, and his hands were behind his back, making him look like an adult.
"I might have to go out after a period of time," Xiao Zheng said softly.
Lin Huayin didn't ask any questions, and she just nodded. "I'm here."
"If Shang Jingtian kills his daughter, it won't be good for us either," Xiao Zheng said with a bitter smile. "There are many men in this world who sacrifice everything for their ambitions."
Lin Huayin glanced at Xiao Zheng. "It's fine if you're not."
"Under Her Majesty's tutelage, how could I be so immoral?" Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
"It's tiring to be too immoral," Lin Huayin said slowly. "Sometimes, I hope you can be more selfish and hateful."
This time, before Xiao Zheng could say anything, Young Master An said slowly with his hands behind his back, "Mom, don't lead Daddy astray. He's glorious and righteous in my heart. "
Xiao Zheng laughed and picked up his son, who was getting heavier and heavier. "Young Master An, just because of what you said, your father's assets will all be yours in the future."
Young Master An, who was born with a silver spoon, didn't care at all. He curled his lips and said, "Forget it. I don't want it, I'll leave it to my future sister. Girls should be raised well. "
"— —" Xiao Zheng turned around and glared at Lin Huayin. "Don't teach him such nonsense in the future, he's not cute at all!"
