Chapter 386 You Won’t Leave Without Saying Goodbye

Qin Xiaoning listened to Lu Ji's words patiently, and then she replied to him: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that after knowing that you married me, I, the Second Master Wei, stopped thinking about me and only treated me as a friend. I also only treated him as an old friend. He is a wealthy businessman after all, and he has all the women he wants. It's not worth it for him to get entangled with me. If he really still had that intention, he wouldn't have stopped our carriage to greet me in front of you that day."

The man remained silent.

After a long while, he finally replied: "Anyway, I really hate that guy named Wei."

The eldest son of a mansion is a man of great nobility and dignity. He can like or dislike anyone according to his own temperament.

"But Mr. Wei is my friend. He helped me before in Qianzhou." Qin Xiaoning said.

Hearing this, Lu Ji snorted coldly: "If it weren't for the fact that Shu Wang saved you and the children from the flood, would you have allowed him to be so comfortable?"

Because Shen Qingshu was in love with Qin Xiaoning, Lu Ji did not take his life, but sent him to a remote place to serve as an official.

This man is naturally unruly. Anyone who offends him will suffer the consequences.

"I am grateful to him because he saved my life." Qin Xiaoning's face was wooden and his tone was serious: "Lu Ji, you are the regent. If you do things according to your own preferences, I am afraid people will criticize you."

Lu Ji was amused when he heard this: "You are even more talkative than those censors."

"Do I, Lu Ji, care about the criticisms of those sour writers?" The man showed disdain.

The two of them had no idea what to say, so Qin Xiaoning simply remained silent.

The man couldn't hold back his temper and couldn't help asking, "Why don't you speak?"

"What did the prince tell me to say?" Qin Xiaoning smiled bitterly: "If I disobey the prince, you will be angry with me and want to make trouble for me."

The man subconsciously retorted: "I didn't."

Qin Xiaoning raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Ji, then continued: "If I irritate the prince, it is not impossible that you will destroy me in anger."

"For someone like the prince, you will always feel unwilling when you can't get what you want, but once you get it, you won't cherish it anymore." Qin Xiaoning said.

"A Ning, what nonsense are you talking about?"

This time, Lu Ji was really anxious, his handsome face flushed red: "How could I abandon you, Aning, don't you know how I feel about you? Tell me, is there anyone in this world who can make me, Lu Ji, so worried."

As he said this, he hurried to grab her hand and confessed: "A Ning, A Ning, you really make me sad when you say this."

The little woman calmly withdrew her hand and said calmly: "The prince is in a high position and has great power. Even if he really despises me, I will not blame you, and I will not complain about the world."

Lu Ji's brows knitted together: "A Ning, are you trying to be estranged from me?"

He felt wronged again and spoke his true feelings: "I like you, and I can't stand seeing other men coveting you, and I can't stand seeing you smiling and being gentle and kind to those men."

Anxiety, anger, helplessness, many emotions suddenly emerged in this usually calm and stern man. At this moment, he did not look like a regent with great power at all, but rather like a young boy, a green boy who was just beginning to fall in love.

"Aning--" He looked at her and called her name. He had many words in his heart, but he was too clumsy to know how to express them.

Finally, he said to her hesitantly, "Please don't call me 'Prince Prince' all the time. It makes me nervous."

Compared to the big man's panic, the little woman looked calm and composed. After listening to his incoherent words, she replied calmly: "If you don't like it, then I will cut off all contact with men from now on." "Anyone I date must get your consent first. If you like them, I can date them. Otherwise, I will stay away from them." The little woman paused, then continued with a wooden face: "Not only dating with people, but also other things, I also need your consent before I can do it."

"In short, I have abandoned myself and regard you as my heaven."

After hearing these words, the man wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

After a long time, he reached out and held her hand, holding her slender little hand tightly with his two broad hands.

"A Ning, are you really angry with me?"

The man asked hesitantly, with a hint of grievance, panic and helplessness in his tone.

The little woman still looked indifferent and replied, "No."

Lu Ji sighed heavily: "I know, Ning, you are just angry with me."

The little woman didn't want to argue with him about this meaningless topic, so she simply shut up.

"A Ning, why aren't you talking again?"

The man's deep eyes were filled with panic as he stared at his wife's wooden face, as if only by hearing the little woman talking to him could he feel at ease.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by a little maid's anxious voice: "My Lord, Commandant Xu is looking for you. He said there is something urgent."

The Captain Xu mentioned by the maid is named Xu Zhan. He used to be Lu Ji's adjutant and now he is promoted to the Captain of the Inner Court and is Lu Ji's right-hand man.

If it was a trivial matter, Xu Zhan would not have come to look for Lu Ji in person. Now that he came in the middle of the night, something big must have happened.

Qin Xiaoning has always been the most clear-headed person. After hearing the maid's report, she immediately urged Lu Ji, "Go out and take a look."

The man said, "Then promise me that you won't be angry with me again."

Qin Xiaoning was so angry that she laughed: "Xu Zhan must have something urgent to tell you, and you still have the energy to waste time here."

"Go and have a look." This time, it was the little woman's turn to be anxious. She stood up and pushed the man, urging him, "Maybe something happened in the inner court."

The man was pushed by her, still stubbornly turning his head to look at the little woman: "A Ning, then wait for me, I will talk to you when I come back."

"Your Highness, Lord Xu is anxious. He said he has something urgent to discuss with you." Seeing that the master did not come out, the little maid could not help but urge him.

"Got it, come right now."

The man finally regained his senses, strode out, and when he reached the door, he turned back and looked at the graceful little woman standing there, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

At this time, the little woman would not lose her temper with him. The current political situation was not a good time to educate a man, so the little woman urged him again: "Go quickly."

The man hesitated for a moment and asked, "Isn't it possible that you will leave without saying goodbye again when I leave?"

The little woman laughed out of anger again. She raised her finger and pointed at her bulging belly: "Where can I go in this state?"
