You were taken hostage, why pursue the Enemy's Empress?

Chapter 45 – The fortunes of a hundred families, awakened my ideals with energy

"Ji Su's goal has been achieved, why bother with him?"

He immediately smiled and said, "Whether or not you are willing to compensate, Wei Xiong can decide for himself. I will not force it!"

Wei Teng was about to explode with anger: "Are you kidding me? You're crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?"

Ji Su couldn't be bothered to argue with him: "I'm going to find Lanling Sheng. If Wei Xiong is interested, we can go together. If not, I'll take my leave!"

After speaking, she left directly.

Damn it!

I have the inherited hot temper of the Flame Kingdom. If it weren't for serving the country, how could I speak to a brain-damaged dandy like you in a low voice?

The goal has been achieved, why bother with you?

Ji Su touched the increasing number of pimples on her face, gritted her teeth in pain, and thought that she must use a messaging symbol when she goes back tonight to show her father the extent of her worries for the country. She would also ask him to reorganize his language and say who exactly should be drowned in the chamber pot.

"Damn it, Ji Su!"

Wei Teng cursed loudly behind her. There was originally a shopkeeper to help him manage the bookstore, and he only needed to count money quietly.

But then Ji Su suddenly appeared, wanting to unite to suppress the paper industry of Kingdom Qian, which forced Ying Wuji to close the bookstore and even created printing techniques, causing everyone to lose money.

She woke up early in the morning and said she had a way to destroy Shangmo Bookstore. She was so happy that she didn't even do morning exercises with her maidservant and rushed over.

But now... you're telling me that we need to compensate to destroy Shangmo Bookstore?

Do I care whether Shangmo Bookstore collapses or not?

I care about making money!

Wei Teng was so angry that he had stomach pains.

"Fuck!"

"It's all Ji Su's fault!"

...

Minister's Mansion.

After Luo Ming and the others left, Luo Yan finally said what he wanted to say: "Dad! Big sister... is happy running the bookstore!"

He clearly remembered the proud and content expression on Hua Chao's face when she showed him the three thousand books.

But the thought of Shangmo Bookstore collapsing...

Luo Yan's expression remained unchanged as he asked, "Happy? Is that the kind of happiness that can be crushed by someone's little finger?"

Luo Ming was anxious: "But she's your daughter..."

Hua Chao asked with concern, "Drunk again?"

"Um..."

Ying Wuji's eyes were a little blurry from the wine, "Sister Hua Chao, my head hurts!"

Hua Chao smiled, "Then sit down, and sister will massage it for you!"

"Okay..."

Ying Wuji agreed and fell directly onto Hua Chao's lap.

Hua Chao: "..."

Wait, I clearly said for you to sit down and let me massage you. This position is a bit intimate. If someone doesn't know, they might think you're being a rogue. But looking at Ying Wuji's drunken eyes, she knew he probably didn't hear her clearly.

It's okay to be a little intimate, it's not the first time anyway, right?

Moreover, the brother and sister have a good relationship. How could the younger brother have bad intentions towards his older sister?

Right?

Hua Chao took a deep breath and slowly covered Ying Wuji's temples with her slender and fair fingers, gently massaging them.

Bai Zhi was beside them, clenching both fists.

She clearly saw that the young master was leaning towards the left yesterday, so she deliberately sat on the left today. But how come the young master is leaning towards the right again today?

Why is his alcohol tolerance so bad!

Zhai Yun glanced at Ying Wuji, then at Wu Dan who was passed out, looking disappointed. "You guys are so inferior as young masters! When it comes to drinking, we should be drinking with the scholars of the Hundred Schools. Let's wait a few days and see if I can't drink them under the table!"

The Mohist beside them said, "Zhai, you better not drink too much then. It's been said that this is the first grand gathering of the Hundred Schools after the truce of the three kingdoms. It's of great significance. I heard that both the Confucians and the Mohists have brought out two schools of thought each, and the Legalists and Militarists have contributed one each. They've all also brought out techniques and spells of the Earth Tier as rewards.

This time, the speaker sent by our Mohist School is a powerful expert in the Wushen Realm. If you make a fool of yourself in front of the disciples of each school by getting drunk, how do you plan to die?"

"Schools of thought and Earth Tier spells?"

Zhai Yun was startled. "This is such a big deal?"

Ying Wuji was also startled, and he sat up directly from Hua Chao's thigh.

Schools of thought could help the Lingtai ascend to a higher level, and Earth Tier spells were the long-awaited existence of countless geniuses, all of them top-notch killing weapons.

Ying Wuji was also drooling with greed, but he was obviously more concerned about the expert in the Wushen Realm. This was a master who had mastered a divine ability.

Isn't that an unprecedented treasure? He would regret it for the rest of his life if he didn't touch it even once!

Hua Chao was startled. "Aren't you asleep?"

Ying Wuji replied, "My ideals have awakened me!"

Hua Chao: "..."
