Just as everyone was waiting for Li Tai to conclude the game, the people who went to the Imperial Villa returned and brought Xiao Wei over.
"Greetings, Young Master." Xiao Wei bowed to Li Chongyi.
"Yes, I'm here. I've troubled you to come all the way here.”Li Chongyi said apologetically.
"It's no trouble, no trouble at all. Young Master has given me a new lease of life…"
But at this moment, Ge Ping suddenly rushed over." Xiaowei, I finally see you."”
"Greetings, Young Master Ge." Xiao Wei also bowed to Ge Ping." Thank you for taking care of me, Young Master Ge."”
"Xiaowei, what are you talking about? I'm taking care of you. Is it right for me to be a piece of cloth? Besides, Li Chong…Young Master Li has already promised me to let you come with me. Xiaowei, are you happy? From now on, we can be together every day.”Ge Ping said excitedly.
Li Chongyi also said," That's right, Xiaowei. You're a good person now. It's your freedom to be with whoever you want. You can choose whatever you want. Don't force yourself. No one will pressure you." Don't worry, not only will I not blame you, but I will also give you my blessings. In the future, treat me as your family and your brother. If you're wronged, I'll stand up for you as your brother.”
Hearing Li Chongyi's sincere words, the surrounding people couldn't help but admire his magnanimity. Not only did he not stop Xiao Wei, but his tone was also full of support for her. They asked themselves whether it was such a little beauty or such a huge bet. If it were them, they would definitely not be willing to give up.
Moreover, this was also a matter of winning or losing. This was a matter of face.
Xiao Wei was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes. Ever since she was young, there were many people who treated her well, such as Mrs. Liu who took her in and Ge Ping who wanted to redeem her.
However, she knew that these people had their own reasons for being nice to her. Mrs. Liu wanted her to earn money from receiving customers, while Ge Ping naturally liked her beauty.
Only Li Chongyi treated her well unconditionally and without any ulterior motives. She was demoted and found a pair of kind-hearted farmers to take her in as their daughter. These days were the happiest days of her life since she was young. Even though she had to accompany her adoptive parents to do some farm work every day, she was exhausted every day because she had never done heavy work since she was young. However, although she was tired, she was very happy. Her adoptive parents treated her very well and treated her like their own daughter. The farmers also treated her very well and did not look down on her background at all. As for Li Chongyi? Although she had only met Li Chongyi twice, she could hear the farmers mentioning Young Master Li every day. She understood that the reason why the farmers did not look down on her and treated her well was because Li Chongyi had done many good things for the farmers.
Young Master, I don't want to marry…"
Before Xiao Wei could finish, Li Chongyi interrupted,"Xiaowei, think about it seriously. Don't worry about me. You have to follow your heart.”
"Young Master, I've already thought it through. You don't have to persuade me.”Xiao Wei said firmly.
Ge Ping couldn't believe his ears and said excitedly,""Xiaowei, did you forget what you told me before? You said that you were willing to spend the rest of your life with me. Yes, Xiaowei, you don't have to be afraid of Li Chongyi. This is His Highness the King of Wei.”
At this time, Li Tai asked Xiao Wei,"This Prince, may I know why you would rather be the daughter of an ordinary farmer than follow Ge Ping to live a luxurious life?" Could it be that you've always been hypocritical to Ge Ping?”
Li Tai's question was a little harsh. Xiao Wei bit her lips so hard that she was bleeding.
Li Chongyi looked down on Li Tai in his heart and said,""I'll answer this question for her.”Li Chongyi paused for a moment before continuing," To Xiao Wei, who was trapped in a brothel, Ge Ping's appearance was a life-saving straw that she saw growing on the shore after she fell into the water. As long as she caught this straw, she would have a chance to climb up to the shore. Not only Xiaowei, but all the girls in the brothel wanted to find a life-saving straw. However, coincidentally, just as she was about to grab onto this life-saving straw, someone suddenly stretched out a bamboo pole and saved her on the shore. Since they had already reached the shore, who would risk falling into the river again to climb back to the shore and grab that straw?”
Li Chongyi had expected Xiao Wei's choice. With Ge Ping's age, he would definitely be married, and Xiao Wei would only be a concubine. In this day and age, the status of a concubine was too low. It was fine if she could get the favor, but once she lost it, her status would only be a little higher than a singer or dancer. If he met a jealous woman, then the concubine would be miserable. Who knows when she would be beaten to death.
Now that Xiaowei had become a good citizen and could marry normally, who would be willing to marry someone else and be a concubine? Even if she wanted to marry, she had to marry into a rich family and enjoy wealth and glory, not Ge Ping, who had an ordinary family background and had borrowed a large sum of money to redeem her freedom. Who knew when he would be able to repay it.
As for her feelings for Ge Ping? A whore is heartless, an actor is heartless. You are a whoremaster, and you still expect a brothel woman to treat you sincerely? Only a sick person would think so.
Li Tai fell silent. After a while, he said,""Li Chongyi, you win! I didn't lose unjustly! In terms of scheming, I'm inferior to you! However, in terms of chess skills, you are inferior to me!”As he spoke, Li Tai placed a piece on the chessboard. This move was very sharp and sharp!
Li Chongyi seemed to have expected this and also placed a piece.""Your Highness, you're wrong. Actually, I'm happy for Xiaowei no matter what she chooses, as long as she follows her heart. It's just a bet of a thousand strings. Anyway, the person who paid is not me, so why should I care?”
