Chapter 305: Niang Rong's Attack
Cheng Jiao took a sip of tea and neither admitted nor denied what Wang Li said.
"Rumors are mostly conjecture. As the grandson of a great general, would you believe them?"
Wang Li naturally didn't believe it. If Cheng Jiao really took King Han's wife and daughter, he would be jealous to death.
We are all men, how can you be so showy?
Lu Buwei knew when to stop, and anyone could see the jealousy in Wang Li's eyes.
Needless to say, there was a rift between Wang Li and Cheng Jiao.
If Wang Li and Cheng Jiao were allowed to continue quarreling, it would not be the two of them who would be disgraced, but him, as the elder and Prime Minister of Qin.
"My dear nephew, please do not believe the rumors. Although Han Wangan is old and incompetent, he is not so bad."
Lu Buwei summarized it and then changed the subject.
"Niang Rong is in the study. I'll have the servants take you there to meet Niang Rong."
Only then did Wang Li remember why he came here.
Fortunately, I didn't get carried away, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself.
Compared with Dong Jun of the Yin-Yang School in front of him, he weighed it up.
Yan Fei is obviously in love with Cheng Jiao, and he doesn't have the ability to snatch her away, so he'd better take Niang Rong first.
"Thank you, Uncle Lao..."
Before Wang Li finished speaking, Niang Rong, who had been eavesdropping with great interest, jumped out.
Have to jump.
She didn't want to meet this guy Wang Li in private.
Just now, Wang Li was looking at Yan Fei with lustful eyes and talking about Cheng Jiao’s romantic scandal.
Even though she was not very worldly-wise, she knew that Wang Li was attracted by her beauty.
Although she was very happy to hear the indirect news about Cheng Jiao, it could not cover up Wang Li's disgust.
When Lu Buwei saw Niang Rong jumping out, his old face trembled. What a worrying girl.
He was so busy dealing with Cheng Jiao that he forgot to find someone to look after Niang Rong.
It was because I had spoiled my mother too much before, causing her to have no "respect" for me as her father.
But on the surface, he remained calm: "Haha, Niang Rong is here, you young people can go and chat."
In order to prevent any unexpected events, Lu Buwei decisively asked Niang Rong and Wang Li to leave.
But Wang Li felt something was not right.
When Lu Buwei said this, it seemed as if Cheng Jiao was a generation older than him.
He is about the same age as me, so why should I treat him differently?
Niang Rong said directly: "No need, I came out just to say that I don't like him, that's all."
Niang Rong said, clapped her hands, walked up to Cheng Jiao, and said with a smile: "Do you mind if I eat one?"
Cheng Jiao said playfully: "I want to eat it, it's from yours."
Lu Buwei frowned. Niang Rong was too unreasonable. She knew that Wang Li was invited by her, but she still did this. It was obvious that she wanted Wang Li to give up.
If it was in private, he wouldn't bother to say anything. If it screwed up, it screwed up.
But Cheng Jiao is here too, and if this gets out, his daughter will not even look down on Wang Li.
It doesn't matter if he offends the Wang family, but it would be bad if it delays him from sending Niangrong abroad.
It is not easy to find an opportunity, and who knows how long the next one will be. He feels more and more powerless. Facing Ying Zheng, Chang'an Jun and Changping Jun, as well as some noble officers who support the Qin King's faction either openly or secretly, he doesn't know if he can hold on until Niang Rong leaves safely.
The political situation changes rapidly. You may think you can hold on for five or six years, but it may be over tomorrow.
Lu Buwei had a deep understanding of this.
As for Wang Li, he couldn't stand seeing his unengaged fiancée openly flirting with other men like this. He really couldn't stand it!
Especially with the undisguised intimacy between Yan Fei and Cheng Jiao just now, Wang Li's chest was heaving, his eyes were red, and he could hardly control his desire to take action.
Lu Niangrong was chewing on the red peaches she got from Cheng Jiao, and at the same time she was mocking Wang Li.
"Some people don't even know what kind of moral character they have. They come to ask for marriage without even knowing whether the girl is willing or not. Bah! How shameless!"
Wang Li laughed angrily: "I came to propose marriage? What kind of virtue do I have? Lord Prime Minister, what do you think?"
At this time, Lu Buwei's face turned pale and he was so angry at Lu Niangrong that he couldn't speak.
He suppressed his anger and shouted: "Get down here!"
Lu Niangrong was so frightened by Lu Buwei's sudden shout that her eyes became watery and she was about to cry.
"Dad... Dad, I, I don't want to get married..."
Lü Buwei's heart softened, and he said in a slower tone, "You go down first and apologize to Wang Li."
He then said to Wang Li, "My dear nephew, my daughter is naughty, please bear with her."
Wang Li felt distressed when he saw the person he liked looking jealous and about to cry.
"It's okay. I'm very tolerant."
Cheng Jiao was chewing on the same peach as Niang Rong and was watching the show with great interest.
She is still young. Even with her poor acting skills, she could fool the grandson of a great general. Lu Niangrong took the opportunity to say, "Then... can you stop looking for me?"
Wang Li was confused, "What did you say?"
Lu Niangrong said patiently: "You are a good person, I am not worthy of you~"
Wang Li was anxious: "You are the daughter of the prime minister, and I am the son of the general. We are a perfect match, how come we are not a good match?"
Lu Buwei tried to intervene several times, but finally gave up.
Cheating!
It's useless for him to say anything now. Wang Li is stupid, but Wang Jian and Wang Ben are not stupid. They both have some dignity.
I took a look at Cheng Jiao who was still eating a peach and felt a little itchy.
If Cheng Jiao hadn't come over, why would Niang Rong directly reject Wang Li?
He seriously suspected that Niang Rong had gone to Cheng Jiao's mansion and learned bad things from the women there.
Before going to Cheng Jiao's house, Niang Rong was so obedient and sensible.
Lu Niangrong stroked her forehead and sighed, "Do you really have to make me explain this clearly? I don't like you, that's it."
Wang Li froze and looked at Lu Buwei for help.
Lu Buwei looked away, pretending not to notice Wang Li's gaze.
Wang Li said in great sorrow, "Why? What is it about me that you don't like? Can't I change it?"
Lu Niangrong scratched her head: "Well, I don't know, I just don't have any feeling."
After being influenced by Li Wu Yan Ling Ji and the others, she now understands a little bit about women's methods.
Lu Buwei walked aside without leaving a trace. He really couldn't stay any longer. Is this still his daughter...
Wang Li seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and forced a smile and said, "It's okay. If there's no feeling, we can cultivate it. How about we get married first?"
Cheng Jiao finished eating another peach, burped, and when he heard what Wang Li said, he was quite moved.
It turns out that dog licking is not a modern product, it has existed for thousands of years.
In this regard, he did not laugh at Wang Li or anything.
It's hard to be a good person~
Lu Niangrong was speechless. She glanced at Cheng Jiao who was watching the show on the side and decided to divert the blame.
It’s all Cheng Jiao’s fault. If it weren’t for him, why would my father have dragged me out for a blind date!
Not only did he not help, he also laughed at her. How annoying!
"Look, do you see him? I like him, so I don't like you! If you can beat him, I will marry you!"
There was a gleam of light in Wang Li's eyes. He was a tyrant in Xianyang City through hard work. Not long ago, he opened up his Ren and Du meridians and broke through the innate realm.
Among the younger generation, he is second and no one dares to claim to be first.
As for Cheng Jiao, he had heard from the royal clan members he had beaten that he was one year older than him and of average strength.
The title of Chang'an Jun was obtained entirely thanks to Queen Dowager Xia Ji.
Maybe it's as my father and grandfather said, he is smart, but skills are not as useful as a smart brain.
"Changan Jun, I challenge you!"
When Concubine Yan heard that someone was challenging her husband, she didn't care about the fact that he was the son of a great general, and immediately prepared to teach Wang Li a lesson.
Cheng Jiao pulled Yan Fei into his arms.
He was afraid that Yan Fei would be careless and the Wang family would be extinct.
"Wang Li, calm down. Niang Rong was just joking. Don't take it seriously."
Seeing Wang Li's hesitation, Niang Rong gritted her teeth secretly. No, she had to provoke Wang Li and make him give up.
"Who said that? I'm a man of my words. I'll keep my word! Wang Li, if you can't beat Cheng Jiao, I'll marry him!"
Cheng Jiao asked playfully: "Oh? You want to marry me?"
Yan Fei folded her hands in front of her abdomen and clenched them tightly.
Even though she knew Niangrong said it on purpose, she still felt unhappy.
Lu Niangrong avoided her gaze. In the words of Yan Lingji, they were all thousand-year-old foxes, why were they playing dumb?
Just tell me whether you are worthy of cooperating with me or not.
Wang Li took a deep breath and thought that Cheng Jiao must have used some tricks to deceive Niang Rong's feelings.
"Cheng Jiao, I, Wang Li, challenge you in my personal capacity!"
Cheng Jiao was too lazy to say anything. When a young man is excited by the girl he loves, the kind of passion that comes with it can only be overcome through constant experience to make him face the reality.
"You take action."
Wang Li frowned as he looked at Cheng Jiao who was still sipping his tea slowly.
"Cheng Jiao, don't be so careless, you will get seriously injured!"
Cheng Jiao yawned: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up, I'm in a hurry. Don't you know that wasting other people's time is the same as stealing money and killing people?"
Wang Li clenched his fists tightly, and his bones crackled.
I wanted to be gentler, but this Chang'an Jun didn't know what was good for him!
