Yeah, what should we do about this?
At this moment, Jiang Zihao was full of himself. He straightened his neck and raised his chin like a proud peacock. He looked at Lu Tang from the corner of his eyes. His gaze was really proud.
Di Wanye was so angry at this stupid cousin that she didn't even want to say anything. The suspicious and reproachful eyes of the Mu family's father and brother still echoed in front of him. He really had a feeling that he couldn't explain himself.
He, Di Wanye, the dignified Crown Prince, needed to use such underhanded methods to investigate the whereabouts of the Thousand Year Lotus? Did he need to force a kiss on a woman he liked?
Humph…
Moreover, he did not like Mu Haitang.
……
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Jiang Zihao noticed that no one was talking and his eyes darted around. He looked at one person and then another. Finally, his eyes landed on Lu Tang and he snorted," I say, Eldest Miss Mu, weren't you quite confident just now? You said that you didn't take it and that I wronged you. Why aren't you saying anything now?”
Jiang Zihao wanted to show off and earn some face for himself.
Lu Tang glared coldly at Jiang Zihao.
She was the kind of woman who had a charming smile and was shockingly beautiful. However, when she put on a cold face, her gaze was as sharp as a blade. When she looked over, Jiang Zihao was a little scared. The next moment, Lu Tang said," Jiang Zihao, you better shut up while I'm still patient. You're the one who has the least right to speak here."”
Lu Tang's words were blunt.
Jiang Zihao's face turned ashen.
"How can I not have the right to speak? I spent a lot of effort to get this Thousand Year Lotus, but you stole it from me!”
He was furious.
Lu Tang's eyes turned cold and she pursed her lips. She didn't want to say anything more.
Jiang Zihao's words had offended the entire Mu family, especially the Mu family's father and brother, who were glaring at him with daggers in their eyes. Even the little guy called Yuan Bao was glaring at him.
"Uncle Jiang, you have no right to talk about my mother.”
Yuan Bao, who had been lying on Mu Xuanyun's body, suddenly spoke.
He glared at Jiang Zihao with a fierce look on his face. He jumped off Mu Xuanyun's body and walked to Lu Tang's side. He held her hand and squeezed it hard. This was the comfort of a filial son.
"You little thing…"
Jiang Zihao was furious. When he heard Yuan Bao's words, he was about to retort, but he saw Yuan Bao rummaging through his clothes. Soon, an IOU appeared in his hands. He raised it high up in the air, his crystal eyes filled with anger. He heard Yuan Bao's childish voice," Uncle Jiang, do you know what this is?"”
Of course, Jiang Zihao recognized it. It was the IOU he had signed for 20,000 gold.
This kid still dared to take it out?
" You were poisoned by the Five Poisons Powder and were being hunted by the killers. Your life was hanging by a thread and you couldn't resist at all. It was Mother who saved you and gave you the antidote. She took ten thousand gold from you as a reward. Then, you wanted to ride my donkey, so I took another ten thousand gold from you as a reward. You didn't have any cash on you, so Mother and I allowed you to write an IOU. We were kind and didn't take advantage of you.”
Yuan Bao spread out the IOU with Jiang Zihao's handprint on it so that everyone could see it clearly.
Although the child's voice was still tender, he was eloquent and had a clear mind.
At such a young age, he was neither servile nor overbearing, and his temperament was extraordinary.
"Taking advantage of a burning house and scamming me of 20,000 gold, you still have the cheek to say that you didn't take advantage of me? Humph."
Jiang Zihao thought back to what happened three days ago and felt like vomiting. Now that he was being questioned by a child, he felt even more embarrassed, so he sneered coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Little Yuan Bao shook his head solemnly." Uncle Jiang, you're an adult, so you naturally know more than a child like me. You're of noble status and you're still young. I'm afraid your life can't be bought back with thousands of gold coins.”
"Of course, this Young Master's life is hard to exchange for.”
Jiang Zihao thought that the little fellow's words were quite pleasant to the ear. The next moment, Yuan Bao continued," So, Mother saved your life and charged you 20,000 gold coins. It's not a lot. Mother and I have discussed it clearly with you. We won't hold you hostage for saving our lives. We will write down an IOU in black and white. The favor and the money will be settled. When we meet again, we will be strangers..."
Yuan Bao's words were magnanimous and very reasonable.
Mu Aotian and Mu Xuanye's eyes were filled with admiration. He was only five years old, yet he had such extraordinary eloquence and insight. He was neither servile nor overbearing, neither arrogant nor boastful. He did not lose the style of the Mu family!
At this point, Yuan Bao's voice suddenly became stern." But you were so petty. Not only did you try to find out our identities in a roundabout way, but you also pretended to fall to check Mother's cultivation. What's more, you even stole Mother's jade pendant…
You didn't follow the rules first, and then you angered Mother. That's why Mother gave you a taste of your own medicine.”
Little Yuan Bao's words were sonorous and his tone was stern.
Jiang Zihao's face turned red from Yuan Bao's words. After a while, he stuttered," That, that jade pendant is fake."”
"So, is this a reason for you to be ungrateful?”
Little Yuan Bao asked coldly.
From the very beginning, he had called Jiang Zihao 'Uncle' to show his politeness. His words were reasonable and reasonable. Jiang Zihao's 'fake jade pendant' had already admitted that Yuan Bao's words were true.
At this moment, Jiang Zihao's face was completely red. After being scolded by a five-year-old child, he couldn't even lift his head.
"My mother is the best mother in the world.”
Yuan Bao raised his chin and said the last sentence.
……
Lu Tang looked at Yuan Bao's tiny body standing there and using all his strength to protect her. Her heart burned. What else could she ask for?
As Yuan Bao finished speaking, everyone's gazes on him were so intense that they could burn a hole in him, especially the Mu father and son. He had no doubt that if looks could kill, he would have died a hundred times over.
At this moment, Little Yuan Bao had already returned to Mu Aotian's side. Mu Aotian reached out and picked him up. Yuan Bao placed the 20,000 gold IOU in Mu Aotian's hands." Grandfather, I'm afraid you'll have to go to the Jiang Mansion to ask for this 20,000 gold personally. The Jiang family owes our Mu family a huge favor.”
"Good, good boy, you're right. Since ancient times, money has a price, but favors are priceless. This king will definitely go and talk to Jiang Ting.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he put the IOU into his pocket.
Jiang Zihao really wanted to cry but had no tears. He wanted to kneel down in front of Yuan Bao. The Mu family was his nemesis. If he told his father about this, he would probably be beaten up again.
With a bitter face, he looked at Di Wan Ye with a pleading gaze, only to find that Di Wan Ye's eyes were deep and her gaze fell on the child called Yuan Bao. It was hard to see the expression in her eyes, but she seemed to admire him. Her eyes were dark, and she looked cold and arrogant.
Then, he looked at the child called Yuan Bao. He was a five-year-old child with delicate features. However, Jiang Zihao was in a daze. He felt like the two of them were like father and son.
Shaking his head, Jiang Zihao felt like he was possessed...
