She took the cup of Bamboo Green Leaves that Chu Yi had poured for her and glanced at Xia Houqing calmly.

Why was this person treated like a ferocious beast?

Although this person had a bad temper, was as unpredictable as the heavens, and would fall out with him at the drop of a hat, it was indeed quite difficult to get along with, but it wasn’t that scary, right?

“Good!”

Another round of thunderous cheers erupted below, like the clamor of waves.

Chu You looked at the stage below distractedly. Although he wasn’t watching the show seriously, he could roughly tell that the script for ‘The Path of Qingxiao’ was based on Emperor Taizu.

When he thought of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizu’s Handbook, a trace of anxiety appeared in Chu You’s heart. If Emperor Taizu had been willing to give the Emperor Taizu’s Handbook to his father back then, the situation wouldn’t have been like this!

It was even possible that their Great Jin Dynasty would mobilize troops to the south and unify the north and south!

Chu You’s heart was burning with ambition, and his long and narrow eyes shone brightly.

He finished the glass of wine in one gulp and placed the empty glass on the table. He looked at Chu Yi coldly and asked directly, “Ah Yi, where did you go just now?”

“I received news that your honor guard returned to the palace after going to Wuliang Temple today.”

Chu You didn’t hide his attention on Chu Yi’s whereabouts. His shockingly bright eyes locked onto Chu Yi’s face tightly. His tone was extremely domineering, not giving Chu Yi a chance to be vague and provocative.

Under Chu You’s threatening gaze, Chu Yi smiled like a spring breeze. “I went to Wuliang Temple on my honor guard. Of course, 1 went to Wuliang Temple too.” His tone was extremely relaxed.

There was a hint of mockery in Chu You’s eyes. He actually dared to acknowledge her as his nephew!

Wang Nan, who was drinking alone, frowned even more when he heard this. It was obvious that he had thought of something. His gaze swept back and forth between Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei.

Could it be…

“Don’t tell me you went to pay respects to Gu Ce?” Chu You directly voiced Wang Nan’s guess and asked Chu Yi aggressively.

The uncle and nephew looked at each other as if they were fighting silently.

Chu Yi’s jade-like bright, and handsome face was serious. He said clearly and frankly, “I naturally went to Wuliang Temple to pay respects to Marquis Gu.”

When Chu You mentioned Gu Ce, his words were filled with contempt.

When Chu Yi mentioned Marquis Gu, his face was filled with respect.

The uncle and nephew were clearly separated. They were clearly only a few feet apart, but it was as if they were thousands of mountains and rivers apart. Their positions were opposite each other, and they were destined to fight to the death.

Hearing this, Wang Nan gripped the wine glass in his hand tightly and almost crushed it. His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The atmosphere instantly tensed up again, and sparks flew in the air.

This show could be watched. Xia Houqing drank tea happily as he casually played with the folding fan in his hand. Only then did he begin to size up these people with interest.

The calculation in everyone’s eyes, the pursuit in everyone’s heart, the surprise and joy in everyone’s eyes… All of this couldn’t be hidden from his sharp eyes.

He liked to watch the show. He liked to watch others scheme against each other, fight openly and secretly. It was best to fight to the death, but he only needed to be high up in the air and manipulate the world.

“Thud…”

Half of the pine nut shell rolled to Xia Houqing’s teacup.

Xia Houqing narrowed his eyes and subconsciously looked in the direction where the pine nut shell had rolled over. He looked at Gu Yanfei, who was holding a pine nut in her hand.

Only her…

It made him feel like he couldn’t see clearly and couldn’t understand her.

Gu Yanfei met Xia Houqing’s dark eyes. She looked puzzled at first, then blinked in realization.

So he wants to eat pine nuts!

Gu Yanfei thoughtfully pushed the plate of pine nuts to him and thought to herself: Although this guy isn’t that scary, he’s really troublesome! If he wants to eat pine nuts, he can just say it. Why must he make me guess?

Xia Houqing looked down at the plate of pine nuts and curled his lips in disdain.

However, after a while, he slowly reached out and took a pine nut. There was only one, and it was pinched with his fingertips.

With another gentle squeeze, the pine nut shell broke, revealing one of the white pine nuts.

Baili Yin, who had looked at Xia Houqing for the umpteenth time, also saw him eating the pine nuts. The white porcelain wine glass in his hand paused in midair, and his hand suddenly stopped trembling.

Young Master Xia is definitely not Xia Houqing! Baili Yin thought in relief and poured himself another glass of wine.

There was silence in the private room for a long time. In the end, Chu You’s long sigh broke the silence..
