Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Anan had heard some of what was going on outside, so he motioned for Xiaofu to watch outside. He walked in and sat down next to Hongze. He stared at Jin Liu and said with a smile, "Master Liu, you had great ambitions in your heart, but ended up like this today. You must feel uncomfortable, right?"

Jin Liu dropped the wine glass in his hand and laughed cynically: "I am used to being rich and idle, but now I have lost my wealth and I feel resentful. Could it be that my sister-in-law will also ridicule me?"

"If you really couldn't bear to give up your wealth, you wouldn't have stayed in the capital to help the prince and the emperor." Anan stared at his handsome and innocent face and smiled, "Wouldn't it be better to go to your fiefdom and be a wealthy idler who doesn't care about worldly affairs, rather than risking your life to investigate corruption and take over other people's money?"

Jin Liu looked at Hong Ze with a half-smile: "Did you tell her?"

Hongze couldn't help laughing and said, "Sixth Master, you look young, but you are very pedantic. Could it be that you really think that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent?"

"Tsk tsk." Jin Liu glanced at him sympathetically, "You'll suffer the consequences!"

"Mutual." Hongze smiled happily and secretly held Anan's hand under the table.

"Yes, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood!" Jinyun really got up with him and overturned the table. While pressing the table top, he couldn't help but persuade him.

Jin Liu smiled, but the corners of his mouth could not hide the sadness.

No, it should be sad and beautiful.

Anan couldn't help but sigh softly, and turned to ask Hongze: "Why does he look so strange now, as if he is about to be humiliated in front of others? Does he have a lover?"

"He has no one in his heart." Hongze was still amused. He took a sip from his wine glass and joked, "He has the people of the world in his heart."

"I said you were sighing all night, it turns out you were worrying about the country and the people!" Jinyun immediately added.

"You've already poked a hornet's nest, and you still won't give up?" Anan was shocked.

"Our Sixth Master has always been a man of great strategy. How could he just sit there and wait for death?" Jinyun followed suit.

Jin Liu shook his head helplessly and looked at them. These heavy thoughts were expressed in this way, but he did not feel humiliated. Instead, he felt much more relaxed.

"Don't always think that Miss Yu is too smart. You should think carefully. The path you are going to take, regardless of success or failure, is destined to cause a bloody storm in the court." Anan said with emotion, "If the person walking with you is incompetent, not only will he not be able to provide you with help, but he will also become a stumbling block for you. Miss Yu is the best choice to walk with you!"

"Indeed, your majesty has never missed a thing." Hongze said, but his eyes were looking at Anan.

Anyone could tell that his words were high-sounding and contained a strong hint of begging for mercy. He was definitely responding to Jin Liu's earlier nonsense, and was also explaining himself.

Anan raised his eyes to look at him, and they smiled at each other.

"Okay, you two can go back and have fun!" Jin Liu was already feeling annoyed, and seeing these two guys being so affectionate with each other made him even angrier. He stood up and started to chase the guests away, even the most innocent Jinyun was chased out.

Jinyun still held the wine glass in his hand, looked at Hongze and Anan awkwardly, smiled and said, "You guys go back first, I'll rest here!"

Xiao Fu was still counting the expenses of the servants in the Fang Mansion. Song He had been waiting for her outside for more than half an hour. Anan took the book from her and said with a smile, "Go back first. It's so cold, don't keep him waiting!"

"If I don't let him wait, how can he cherish me in the future?" Xiao Fu glanced at Anan and said with a wicked smile, "After all, not every proactive woman has such good luck as my cousin!"
