After Li Lizhi pulled Cheng Chuyu into the royal study, the entire study fell into a dead silence.
Li Shi Min's eyes widened in shock, his hand holding the teacup froze, looking a little funny.
Empress Zhangsun did not lose her composure, but she could not believe what she was seeing.
Seeing this, Cheng Chuyu revealed a bitter expression.
It seemed that today was not destined to be a peaceful day.
Li Lizhi didn't seem to notice that the atmosphere was a little off. She still held Cheng Chuyu's hand and said,"Your son greets father and mother."
Cheng Chuyu could only bite the bullet and say,"Official Cheng Chuyu greets Your Majesty and Empress.”
There was a moment of silence.
Li Shi Min put down his teacup and stood up. He glared at Cheng Chu Yu and said angrily,"How dare you! Kid! Why aren't you letting go of your dirty hands?”
Cheng Chuyu was speechless. Are you blind? Can't you see that I'm passive?
However, Li Shiming was angry, so he had no choice but to withdraw his hand. In the end…
Li Lizhi held his hand tightly and did not want to let go.
Cheng Chuyu revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.
Great aunt, can you not harm me? Can't you see that your father is angry?
Li Shiming was not a fool. He could tell that Li Lizhi was the one who was causing trouble. He did not say it out loud earlier because he was concerned about his daughter's face. He did not expect Li Lizhi to still be unrepentant.
"Stop fooling around, Lizhi!" he scolded with a frown. Let go of my hand! How could a girl hold hands with a man in public?”
Empress Zhangsun also frowned. Don't make your Imperial Father angry!"
Li Lizhi didn't let go. Instead, she tightened her grip. Her beautiful eyes were filled with determination and stubbornness."Your daughter is doing this to tell Imperial Father and Imperial Mother that your daughter likes him and will not marry anyone other than his daughter. I hope that Imperial Father and Imperial Mother can grant us our wish and issue an imperial decree to grant us a marriage!”
"Marriage is a matter of great importance. How can you be so willful and cause trouble!”
Li Lizhi was still stubborn. His daughter liked him! What's wrong with that?"
Empress Zhangsun saw that Li Shimin was on the verge of exploding and quickly said,""Lizhi, listen to me. Let go of your hand first. If there's anything, we can discuss it.”
Li Lizhi didn't want to fall out with her parents, so she hesitated for a moment before letting go of her hand.
Li Shi Min's expression softened a little, and he controlled his emotions. He said earnestly," Lizhi, it's not that Father doesn't want you to choose your own husband. If you want to find a young, promising, and ambitious man, even if his family background is a little poor, Father won't have any objections. But this one you've found…"
Pausing for a moment, Li Shiming looked at Cheng Chuyu with a face full of disdain."This kid is a complete playboy! How can Imperial Father entrust you to him?”
Her words were harsh, but Cheng Chuyu was not angry because of it.
Li Shiming was right. He didn't have any big ambitions. He just wanted to be a free and idle son of a noble family and enjoy a comfortable life.
Li Lizhi looked at Cheng Chuyu, who was standing beside her with a calm face, and then looked at Li Shiming, saying seriously,""He's definitely not that kind of person."
Li Shi Min almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Loitering around the land of romance, teasing young girls from good families, beating up the son of the Duke on the streets…
Wasn't this a hedonistic son?
Empress Zhangsun sighed faintly. Her daughter had completely fallen into Cheng Chuyu's trap.
Li Shimin found it difficult to communicate with Li Lizhi, who had been seduced, so he planned to start with Cheng Chuyu.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Cheng Chuyu."Cheng brat, let me ask you, do you like Princess Chang Le?”
Before Cheng Chuyu could speak, Li Lizhi interrupted,"Of course he likes me!"
"Father didn't ask you, so don't interrupt." Li Shi Min frowned.”
After saying that, he looked at Cheng Chuyu.
Li Lizhi was afraid that Cheng Chuyu would say that she didn't like it, so she secretly gave her a 'super fierce' look.
Cheng Chuyu naturally knew what Li Lizhi meant. Helpless, he could only bite the bullet and say,"I like it."
Li Lizhi could not help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.
Li Shi Min smiled and said lightly,"There are some things I didn't want to say, I was afraid of hurting your self-esteem, but now it seems that I have to say it."”
"You are a smart person. I think you should know what kind of person you are.”
"Are you worthy of Princess Chang Le?"
"Princess Changle is a favored daughter of the heavens. The person who marries her must be a dragon among men, or at least an outstanding one. However, you only have the identity of the son of a Duke.”
"People have to know their own limits. Some things are not something you can touch, and they are not something you can fantasize about.”
"You should understand what I mean, right?”
Li Shi Min didn't want to say such harsh words. After all, no matter how bad Cheng Chu Yu was, he was still Cheng Yao Jin's son. He didn't want to hurt his relationship with Cheng Yao Jin because of Cheng Chu Yu.
However, Li Lizhi was his most precious daughter. As a father, he did not want his daughter to marry someone who had no future and only knew how to play.
Hearing this, Cheng Chuyu fell silent.
He naturally knew that Li Shi Min said this for his daughter's sake.
However, although he was a good-for-nothing playboy with no ambitions, it did not mean that he did not have a temper.
Even clay figurines had a temper, let alone a living person like him.
He didn't think much of Li Shiming calling him a playboy, but his words were clearly mocking him.
Endure humiliation?
He couldn't do it!
Since you said that I'm not qualified to marry your daughter, then I'll let you see if I'm qualified enough!!!
