Chapter 503 It seems they value you extremely.
"It seems Qing'er wasn't in a good mood before tonight." Miao Yucui didn't know what had happened, but having spent time with Huo Qing, she had gotten to know her quite well.
Chu Yueli looked around and, not finding anyone suspicious, lowered her voice and briefly explained what had happened.
Upon hearing this, Miao Yucui flew into a rage: "That damned old bastard!"
However, they had a tacit understanding: they would just curse the old man, but never mention his identity.
It's something I can't mention!
"Qing'er, don't be afraid. What if he really dares to do something reckless..."
"I'll take him down with me!" Huo Qing snorted, no longer taking it seriously.
"That won't do." Chu Yueli's face darkened.
Miao Yucui and Huo Qing also knew that they were just speaking in anger. That person was the Emperor, how could they really disrespect him?
Disrespect would implicate the entire Duke's mansion.
Ali's concerns are valid; they were just saying things in anger.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yueli changed the subject and said, "This old man is already so old, he doesn't have many days left to enjoy life. But you, Third Aunt, are still so young. If you die together with him, you'll be at a loss."
Huo Qing was stunned, and Miao Yucui was also taken aback.
Shouldn't Ali be thinking more about the future of the Duke's mansion?
Ultimately, they weren't that important. If it really came to a desperate situation, they might have no choice but to die to uphold their integrity, rather than drag Xiao He and A Li down with them.
Zisu smiled and said, "Do you think my young lady is such a well-behaved person? If we're talking about being ignorant of one's own limitations, you are far inferior to her."
"You brat, how dare you talk like that!" Chu Yueli glared at her.
Looking at her two aunts, Chu Yueli smiled and said, "We are family. Since we are family, no one can be missing. There is always a solution to problems. But you can't sacrifice yourself arbitrarily, understand?"
Huo Qing felt a surge of warmth in her heart and didn't know what to say.
Miao Yucui sighed and began to comfort her: "What Ali said means that a family should always be together. We will face any difficulties with you. Qing'er, don't be afraid. If anything happens, be sure to tell Ali. Ali will always be able to give you the best solution to your problems."
Huo Qing looked at Chu Yueli.
Chu Yueli smiled and said, "Those who believe in me will live forever."
"Ah……"
The steaming hot pork chop noodles arrived, and the four of them enjoyed their meal together.
Just as Zisu finished the last sip of soup, she looked up and saw a familiar figure: "Jing Lei?"
Seeing thunder at this moment was something Chu Yueli hadn't expected.
"Is your prince nearby?" she asked.
Jing Lei had just arrived when he saw a table full of delicious food and immediately felt incredibly hungry.
Zisu pulled up a chair for him and ordered a large bowl of noodles.
Jing Lei sat down, drank a cup of tea, greeted everyone, and then said, "No, I have some official business to handle around here."
As for what official business he was dealing with, he didn't say, so Chu Yueli didn't ask.
After all, they are people from the Prince Mo's mansion, trusted confidants of the prince, and many things cannot be revealed to outsiders.
"I didn't mean to hide it from you, Miss Li."
"Understood, no need to explain." Chu Yueli genuinely didn't care. What family doesn't have its own affairs? Even their Duke's Mansion has things they can't talk about, so what?
Jing Lei breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that she really didn't care.
Huo Qing smiled and said, "It seems that the people of the Mo Prince's Mansion really value our Ali. They are even afraid that you will misunderstand something."
Chu Yueli didn't say anything, because she was a little embarrassed.
Huo Qing then asked, "Isn't Mo'er going to the palace today to ask the Emperor for a marriage decree?"
