Chapter 892: I have yet to Accept you as my Son-in-Law!
Zhao Sizhan knew that the Duke was lazy and would never agree.
Qiao Qing then said, “Then, I will work with the Ruan Country leader and ask him to lead the City of Summer.”
“No!” Quan Zexi rejected, “He’s already the ruler of a different country. Though his hatred is only towards the ruler of this country, if he truly possesses this country, he will turn this place into a colony. No matter how big of a heart he has, he will never treat the people of this country the same as he treats his own!”
Qiao Qing narrowed her eyes, “So you plan on helping Emperor Yin?!”
Quan Zexi was taken back by her demeanor. Silently, he exclaimed, “How dare this youngster yell at the elder?! How disrespectful!”
Then, he remembered what Qi Yusen had just told him and he didn’t yell back. Instead, he only glanced at Jun Yexuan.
“Why don’t you ask him to take over the Emperor seat? Half of his blood is royal and it’s logical for him to be the next in line.”
Jun Yexuan answered, “Though I’m his grandson, I’ve never done any governing work and don’t know how to be a politician. On top of that, I’ve never spent much time in this country and don’t know what the citizens here want.”
“The emperor is very greedy and hungry for power. There’s no way he’d let me have his seat while he is still alive. If I suddenly fight for power, I won’t be spared of rumors that will be passed around in this country. I will end up being known as a sly grandson who betrays his family.”
“You, dad-in-law, are different. You’ve been governing this country for two years. You are very loved by the citizens and have led this country to much glory. To the people, you’re much more respected than the Emperor. If you become the ruler, you will for be the hope the country wants, and you will very much be loved.”
Quan Zexi, whose ass had been kissed in all sorts of ways, “…”
His brain spun for a long time, but he didn’t find a single phrase that was untrue. So, he only widened his eyes in anger.
“Don’t play games with me! Plus, the DNA test result isn’t out yet! Even if it’s proven that she is my daughter, I have yet to accept you as my son-in-law! You’re calling me ‘dad’ far too early!”
Jun Yexuan, “…”
Mu Jinghang thought, “See, told you not to offend your father-in-law. He’s found a reason to reject you.”
Jun Yexuan immediately felt anxious. His hands went hot as Qiao Qing grabbed them.
Instantly, he sighed in relief. His suspending heart calmed down and he cupped Qiao Qing’s hands in return.
Quan Zexi narrowed his eyes as he felt a bad premonition.
If that girl truly was his daughter, then she was treating her boyfriend as someone more important than her father?
That thought made him speak to Qiao Qing, “Why not put a pin in the matter of the Emperor. Let’s chat after the DNA result comes out. Now… you come back to the Quan family with me?”
Qiao Qing nodded.
“Then, let’s go.” Quan Zexi subconsciously took Qiao Qing’s hand and headed outside. He walked a few steps before he realized what he did and froze.
He hesitated but didn’t let go.
Her hand was soft and warm – the feeling wasn’t too bad.
Quan Zexi didn’t even realize himself that despite the fact that he’s never felt much towards women, the sudden appearance of his daughter made him feel more joy than detest.
The image of this father and daughter duo walking while holding hands made Jun Yexuan and Qi Yusen burn with jealousy.
But what could they do? All they could do was follow them while feeling depressed.
Yin Lei was currently deep asleep. He had no idea that someone was talking behind his back and trying to figure out who was a suitable candidate for his job.
It was already morning time by the time the group got out of the hotel.
Qiao Qing called for Lang Yin, who showed up right away, “Miss.”
Qiao Qing ordered, “Ask someone to bring my mother over. Tell her that I’ve found my father..”
