Liu She was silent for a long time.
After a while, he said calmly and confidently, "You won't kill him, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Indeed, I won't kill him. Ah Zhao is quite cute." She changed the topic. "I won't kill him, but that doesn't mean others won't."
Most people would think that the "others" Jiang Pengji mentioned were radicals who were loyal to her.
No matter how well Jiang Pengji did, no matter how high she rose, and no matter how many children her age could play mahjong together, she had no intention of getting married or pregnant. It was impossible for her subordinates not to be anxious. Under such circumstances, there would definitely be people who wanted her to have an heir as soon as possible, even if it was a son from another branch of the family. But there were also people who supported Jiang Pengji. Liu Zhao was the biggest target to eliminate any hidden danger that could usurp the throne.
However, Liu She knew that Jiang Pengji was not referring to those people, but someone else.
"Because it's dangerous, I want to use marriage as an excuse to send him far away. It's good to let him be a rich and idle man."
"You don't look like someone who is willing to live in peace." Jiang Pengji sneered. "Can a 'rich and idle man' satisfy your appetite?"
"No one in the world is born greedy …" Liu She avoided the question. "As long as that unfilial son is satisfied."
Jiang Pengji said, "Ah Zhao is Lanting's biological brother. Of course, he will get what he wants."
The father and daughter's conversation came to an end, and they drank a jar of wine in silence.
Jiang Pengji asked him, "What kind of person is Gu Min?"
"Her? She's a person who is passionate about life. She's sunny and beautiful. You can tell from her eyes that she grew up in a comfortable and peaceful environment. " Liu She raised his cup and drank it in one gulp. "I thought you were very similar to her, but it turns out that I was wrong."
The first time he saw Jiang Pengji, he knew that she and Gu Min were completely different people.
Both of them were pure, but one was pure white, and the other was pure black.
Jiang Pengji said, "Look at you. You make it sound like I'm a ruthless person who kills people like flies …"
Liu She was strangely silent.
Wasn't she?
Not to mention what kind of person she was in her previous life, the number of people who had died in her hands in the past few years in Dongqing was in the tens of thousands!
"When did you start to doubt me?"
Liu She had never been able to figure it out.
Jiang Pengji smiled. Her eyes were misty because of the wine.
"That's an interesting question, Father. I've never trusted anyone since the beginning." Jiang Pengji played with the wine cup in her hand, and her lips curled into a sly smile. "If it were an ordinary person, most of them would feel uneasy because they are suddenly in an unfamiliar environment and urgently need to find stability from someone they know. Recognizing the body's identity and the body's relatives and obtaining a sense of security from them was one of the most convenient channels. It was also a reflexive choice for the weak to protect themselves. I personally think that I am not a weakling … "
The corner of Liu She's mouth twitched.
There were too many things to complain about.
He didn't know if she was too conceited and arrogant or something else, but she was also quite narcissistic.
"From the very beginning, I have never acknowledged Liu Xi's identity, nor will I regard Liu Xi's identity and connections as my own, nor will I be completely immersed in them." Jiang Pengji said, "Jump out of the shackles and barriers of identity and emotions. Many things are not difficult to explain."
Without the filter brought by her identity and emotions, she was able to calmly watch Liu She's performance. She was happy to cooperate with him.
Liu She was speechless.
Sure enough, the deep love between father and daughter was an illusion created by the two acting queens.
You and I are not meant to be. It is all thanks to acting.
Liu She said, "Do you know that there is a phrase called 'acting out for real'?"
No matter how good an actor's acting was, he or she would also be lost in the overly realistic emotions. They would involuntarily act out for real and lose themselves in the illusion.
Liu She found that Jiang Pengji did not have this problem at all. Even when the "father-daughter relationship" was at its best, she still maintained her rationality.
Jiang Pengji knew what Liu She was trying to say.
"I have long passed the age of yearning for fatherly and motherly love. Maybe I yearned for it when I was young because I was weak. But after that period of time, these feelings are no longer necessities for me, they are burdens. " Jiang Pengji said expressionlessly, "Even if I have a 12-year-old body again, a kind and gentle father, a dignified and beautiful stepmother, and an adorable and silly brother, I can't go back, I can't go back. I can act, but I really can't regard someone younger than me as my father. You are making things difficult for me … "
Moreover, the kind and gentle father was fake, the dignified and beautiful stepmother was fake, and the cute and adorable brother was also fake.
How could she have real feelings for something that was fake?
Liu She: "…"
Wait …
She was actually older than him?
How did Jiang Pengji call a man younger than her "father" without any psychological barriers?
Liu She's eyes said it all.
Jiang Pengji replied, "I am a professional person."
Liu She: "…"
The two of them were silent again.
Liu She did not expect the two of them to lay their cards on the table so easily. Even though they already knew the truth, there was still a layer of window paper that had not been exposed.
Now that it had been exposed, neither of them could pretend that it had never happened.
Jiang Pengji said, "You have said so much to me today. Are you planning to form an alliance with me?"
Liu She replied, "Why not?"
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Jiang Pengji revealed a meaningful smile.
What happened to the allies who had formed an alliance with her in the past?
"That person's hiding place is extremely secretive. Although I don't know the specific location, he is definitely in Wanzhou, by your side." Liu She said, "His purpose is very clear. He wants the fate of the whole world. As the Son of Fate, you must be a target that he keeps a close eye on."
Jiang Pengji said, "I know. I also have a question. Wouldn't it be easier for him to plot against me and fight for the world by himself?"
The corner of Liu She's mouth twitched. He was slightly speechless. "You have the God Slaying Sword by your side. Why are you still asking this question?"
The main system had been cowardly and refused to show up. Wasn't it because the dimensional patrolling merchant had not left?
Before the hidden danger of the plane was solved, it was impossible for him to leave. That was why the main system had its eyes on Jiang Pengji.
In addition …
Jiang Pengji said, "I just find it boring. Since the dimensional patrolling merchant restrains him, what is the point of my existence? "
She thought she was the chess player. Suddenly knowing that she was just a chess piece in someone else's hands, she was naturally unhappy.
"I don't know either," Liu She said.
Jiang Pengji asked, "You came to lay your cards on the table with me. Isn't this a betrayal to him?"
"Are you worried about me?" Liu She raised his eyebrows and said firmly, "Don't worry — he is not nearby. He won't know."
Jiang Pengji said, "One last question. Have you sent someone to assassinate Wen Zheng?"
