Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Ruoxuan looked at Jiang Yeqian’s handsome yet gloomy face. He raised his eyebrows and said in a deliberately chummy manner, “It’s just that our relationship has been pretty good nowadays. I was just thinking that I should discuss things with you when something new comes up. When the time comes, in case the Grand Old Master of the Lu family disagrees, I’ll go and back her up as State Preceptor. I can also say some good words about Lady Qi. This’ll surely be a foolproof plan.”

Jiang Yeqian, who was still sitting down, could not help but secretly clench his fists in his sleeves despite the ‘kind’ smile on his face.

He really wished he could shoot Li Ruoxuan’s f*cking head off!

He changed the topic and said, “Your body recovered faster than mine.”

“Because I’m only blind in one eye, I can still meditate and regulate my breath, so I recovered faster than you,” Li Ruoxuan said unhurriedly. “But don’t worry, Head Grand Secretariat. Once I’m almost recovered, I’ll take control of Qingzhou City’s affairs so you don’t need to worry too much.”

Jiang Yeqian, “...”

This guy was being deliberately annoying!

“Although my leg is handicapped, my brain isn’t!” Jiang Yeqian said angrily.

Li Ruoxuan smiled weirdly, then left the room.

In the afternoon, Jiang Yeqian, along with Zhao Xin and a few henchmen, got on the carriage and left the courtyard without saying goodbye to Li Ruoxuan.

When Zhu Shen reported Jiang Yeqian’s departure to Li Ruoxuan, an expression of curious laughter blossomed all over his face.

Zhu Shen was baffled by the inexplicable laugh his master had let out.

Could it be that he was very happy the Head Grand Secretariat had left?

That did not feel right.

That laugh did not sound like the laughter of one rejoicing over his nemesis’ departure.

Based on his understanding of the State Preceptor, his master’s laugh was a laugh of satisfaction after discovering a clue in some mystery!

Zhu Shen did not dare ask what the clue or mystery was although he was very curious.

Once Li Ruoxuan was done laughing, he seemed to be in a very good mood. He asked Zhu Shen to make a pot of tea, and when it was done, he sat and began leisurely drinking his tea.

Zhu Shen looked at his master’s relaxed appearance, which was a rare sight.

He could not help but say, “Master, are you that happy that… the Head Grand Secretariat has left?” If that was the case, would it not have been better to get rid of him earlier?

“It’s not because he left that I’m happy.”

“...” ‘Then why are you so happy?!’ Zhu Shen really wanted to ask, but still did not dare to.

“He left too hastily. It seems like he hates many of the things I’ve brought up today.” He had hated hearing that the Lu family might allow Qi Qingyao to marry into the family, and he had hated getting further proof that Lu Yan might like Qi Qingyao. He hated it so much he had left immediately!

“...” ‘Master, what did you just say?!’ Zhu Shen felt like his curiosity was practically frothing out of his mouth.

“That man is quite easy to read in certain aspects.”

“...” In what aspects?!

“Oh my dear Jiang Yeqian, it seems like you really like her!”

“...” Who was it, who was it, who was it?! Who did the Head Grand Secretariat like?! Zhu Shen scratched his head, his face full of frustration.

Li Ruoxuan took a sip of tea slowly. With a relaxed smile on his face, he turned his head and said to Zhu Shen.

“Zhu Shen, your master most enjoys discovering other people’s weaknesses and Achilles heels the most. It just so happens that Jiang Yeqian has never had any weakness before. Even if I had killed someone close to him, he would never have reacted to it. But from now on, things will be different!”

“Is master saying that the Head Grand Secretariat has a weakness? And you’ve managed to find it?”

“Exactly!”

“...” ‘What was his weakness?!’ Zhu Shen really wanted to ask but did not dare to.

Li Ruoxuan thought for a while and instructed, “Prepare a generous gift. Let’s go visit the Qi Residence tomorrow morning. I’m going to personally apologize to Lady Qi about testing Si Jin to mend our relationship.”

Was he not just talking about the Head Grand Secretariat’s weakness?! Why had he suddenly changed the topic to making amends with Qi Qingyao?

Say, Master, when was the last time you made amends with anyone…?

This—This—This—What was this operation?!
