Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Are You Looking Down on Me?
In the private room, Ji Huo’s mouth corners curved upwards in an exaggerated manner.
The two girls in front of him spoke with deep affection, naturally their words could not be false!
A thousand-mile horse exists, but not often a Bole who recognizes its talent.
Fortunately, he encountered two at once!
Shen Hua whispered, "Let’s vent no more, we won’t make things difficult for the Princely Heir, we only hope to meet Lady Yan."
Ji Huo was conflicted.
Ji Ge began to enjoy the drama.
"How is it that I, the Prince, am not the most valiant?"
"Why do you rely on him? He was just scolded by Prince Gong and now treads carefully, not daring to cause more trouble."
Ji Ge slammed the table: "Sister-in-law! I’ll take charge of this matter for Shen!"
Speaking, he pushed Ji Huo aside: "Move aside. You’re blocking my heroic stance."
Ji Huo: !!!
His rationality was completely hollowed out by this provocation.
"No way!"
"No one competes with me!"
Ji Huo even declared.
"Just to meet once is enough? What about holding Wei Miss accountable for rushing her off?"
Ji Ge feigned concern: "No need for that, if you offend the Governor’s son, both Shen and Miss Wei wouldn’t have peace of mind."
Wei Yingying: "Indeed, how can this be satisfactory?"
Shen Hua: "It was just one expulsion, Yingying wasn’t injured, she has resigned herself..."
"Are you looking down on me?"
Ji Huo roared: !!!
"What is Yan An? I, the Princely Heir, can call the official ’uncle’, and I’m not afraid of him! Don’t you worry about me! I, Ji Huo, am taking charge of this matter today! Yan An has been spoiled by the Governor’s wife since childhood! If I discipline him, it would also count as ridding the people of a scourge."
Ji Huo slammed the hammer down with a decision.
"Let’s go now!"
"Just watch! That worthless fellow dares to stop me!"
Saying that, he turned around energetically.
Ji Ge, unable to contain his amusement, quickly followed him.
Shen Hua and Wei Yingying lagged a step behind.
"Will this really work?"
Wei Yingying restrained her excitement: "I fear the Heir of Prince Gong might turn Yan Mansion upside down. That would also count as our fault."
Shen Hua: "The Seventh Prince knows the limits."
The girls are innocent.
"I advised him several times."
"The Heir of Prince Gong wouldn’t listen."
Shen Hua concluded: "He must act the hero."
Wei Yingying: "That’s true, it’s hard to find such a character in Shengjing anymore."
The two left the restaurant, only to see Ji Huo looking around at the entrance. Ji Huo urged repeatedly, "Hurry! Why are you dawdling! Ride in my carriage together. The Princely Heir’s fists are already itching!"

Governor Mansion
Unlike a joyful occasion, the atmosphere throughout the mansion carried a sinister air.
The Governor’s wife’s face was stern, almost angry, making it difficult for others to provoke her easily.
Always at odds with her, the Second Old Lady sipped tea, unfazed by her cold gaze: "Sister-in-law, do you know about your son, Brother An, expelling the Wei girl from your mansion?"
The Governor’s wife looked at her: "So?"
"Miss Wei is after all the daughter of the Minister of Ministry of Industry. It might be inappropriate."
The Governor’s wife was unimpressed: "Miss Wei’s prospects are bleak, and Minister Wei won’t stick his neck out for her. Brother An may be impulsive, but does he not wish for his legitimate sister to stay away from such girls? Where is the fault in that?"
The Second Old Lady managed to restrain herself from rolling her eyes.
Pampering a son should not be done this way.
No wonder the old lady dislikes the Governor’s wife, saying that a good son has been spoiled rotten. Only the Governor’s wife thinks her son is flawless.
"Speaking of Mi, I must ask, how long do you plan to keep her confined?"
As someone who has been through it all, she said: "Once married, how can she still live as comfortably as a girl? The wedding date is set for early next spring. Shouldn’t we let her enjoy herself during this period? Or do you plan to confine her until she steps into the flower sedan chair?"
The Governor’s wife put down her teacup. She spoke abruptly, without giving the Second Old Lady any face.
"Second sister-in-law, there’s no need for you to worry about the affairs of the main house. Your husband has been away from home for a long time, if you are idle, you might as well think about how to regain his attention, and not overreach."
The Governor’s wife seemed impatient: "Nanny Liu, see the guest out."
The Second Old Lady snorted and turned to leave.
She had just left the yard of the Governor’s wife, and the old woman by her side spoke with concern.
"Madam, why bother coming here to endure such treatment from Madam?"
In her view, whoever Mi marries has nothing to do with the second branch of the family, not to mention the old lady is not in Shengjing currently, and with the Second Old Lady not favored by her husband, if she offends Madam again, she might suffer from petty actions against her.
The Second Old Lady stamped her foot: "After all, that girl calls me Second Aunt."
She watched her grow up.
Even if she doesn’t get along with the Governor’s wife, she truly cares about Yan Mi.
Who could have imagined, that the most esteemed girl, would be pushed into such a situation by her birth parents.
To have such a marriage, and then to be put under house arrest.
Who would believe it if told?
The reason for the house arrest was merely because after Duke Wei Mansion proposed marriage, that night, Yan Mi knelt before her parents, abandoning all rationale to fight for herself once.
— Begging Daddy and Mama to withdraw the order.
"Seeing her like this, it’s really quite pitiable. Mi is knowledgeable and sensible, if I’m not mistaken, this is her first time begging anyone."
And she was begging her own family.
Even the Second Old Lady knows that Duke Wei Mansion is not a good match.
She raised her eyebrows: "On the day of the betrothal, Eldest Young Master Wei didn’t even show his face. I’ve lived so many years, never have I seen such a ridiculous incident."
The old woman said quietly: "The people from Duke Wei Mansion explained that Eldest Young Master Wei was unwell, which is why it was inconvenient for him to come. Having his younger brother come in his stead was also reasonable."
His younger brother? That six or seven-year-old boy?
Ridiculous and laughable.
The Second Old Lady wouldn’t listen to such excuses.
"He has always been sickly, and has been recuperating for the past few years. It wasn’t necessary for him to do much, but he wasn’t even willing to show his face. What, is he dying from a serious illness?"
"If he really valued Mi, he would have made it to the ceremony."
As she said that, her face showed disdain.
"Forget it, even her own mother was willing to give her up, what’s the hurry for me as her aunt, could I really decide for her?"
It is also fate.
After the servant and master left, the Governor’s wife felt unsatisfied, and a maid massaged her shoulders and legs.
"How is it on the Madam’s side?"
"To report to the Madam, the Lady has not eaten since yesterday."
The Governor’s wife frowned.
Ultimately, she wasn’t too concerned.
This time, she was disappointed in Yan Mi.
A fine girl, leaving the house frequently these days was already improper! Now, even daring to say she does not want to marry, surely must have been instigated by Wei Yingying.
"Then she is simply not hungry."
"If she really is steadfast, let her not consume even a drop of water or a grain of rice."
"There’s no need to send meals from the kitchen. When she softens her stance, come and report to me."
"Yes."
Just at this moment, an old woman rushed over hurriedly.
"Madam! It’s not good."
The Governor’s wife looked over unexpectedly.
Old Woman: "The young master was beaten."
Upon hearing this, the Governor’s wife suddenly stood up.
"What?"
"Heir of Prince Gong suddenly stormed in, grabbed our young master, and started beating him. He couldn’t be stopped."
