Chapter Ninety-Six: The Fish and the Bear's Paw
Wang Nu leaned lazily on the back of the chair, as if she hadn't heard Hao Jianqiang's words, and looked up and down Hao Jianqiang's body, as if trying to find some similarities in Hao Jianqiang's body.
"Your Highness?"
Hao Jianqiang couldn't help but feel furious when he was watched, and couldn't help but ask out loud again.
"Hehe, how can there be anything? On the contrary, you get huge benefits, you don't have to worry about it! β
The princess retracted her scrutinizing gaze, smiled lightly, and suddenly changed her words and said, "How much do you know about your parents?" I'm talking about biological parents! β
"I've never met them, I've lived with my adoptive mother since I was a kid!"
Hao Jianqiang's words that were about to continue to inquire were blocked back all of a sudden, and he could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, this is the truth, except for that vague dream, Hao Jianqiang can no longer find a trace.
"That's weird, what about your sister?"
The princess leaned forward suddenly, "Aren't you biological brothers and sisters?" β
"Would you believe me if I told you that we were brother and sister, and that my memories of the eight years before Satsuki was born were blank?"
Hao Jianqiang smiled depressedly, this thing seems too incredible, but it is the case, his memory starts from there, there is no trace of the past.
"I'm sure it's likely that someone erased your memory!"
The princess nodded unexpectedly to Hao Jianqiang.
"Memories can be erased, too?"
Hao Jianqiang looked at the princess in surprise, but it seemed that only this possibility could explain his eight years of blankness.
"Hehehe, of course you can, and it's not impossible to recover!"
The princess suddenly bloomed with a demonic temptation smile that Hao Jianqiang had never seen, Hao Jianqiang's body trembled, and he realized that he had invisibly entered the trap prepared by the princess, and it was still so difficult to refuse.
Taking a deep breath, Hao Jianqiang gritted his teeth, he must not continue according to the rhythm of the princess, otherwise he is likely to put himself in, and he must break this rhythm.
"Your Highness, can you let me see my sister first? I'm a little worried! β
Hao Jianqiang looked at the princess cautiously, he really couldn't think of any other way besides this.
"There's no hurry, that girl shouldn't have woken up yet!"
Wang Nu sat back again, looked at Hao Jianqiang with scrutinizing eyes, and said, "I think we should have a good talk!" β
"I wonder what His Highness wants to talk to me?"
Hao Jianqiang was extremely depressed in his heart, knowing that this was the princess who felt that she was deliberately avoiding it, so she pulled the problem back all of a sudden, and directly picked it out.
"Let's put it this way, I'm very optimistic about your sister's talent, so I plan to cultivate her from now on, I can recognize her as a sister, not as a subordinate, as for your problem, I will also help you decide, from today you can get rid of the rock king!"
Wang Nu looked at Hao Jianqiang quietly and said what she had already planned.
"Thisβ"
Hao Jianqiang couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect that now was the time to make a statement, but could he agree? Hao Jianqiang couldn't help but be silent, he could feel the change in the princess's attitude, although it was because of her sister, but it undoubtedly raised the princess's attention to herself, but this kind of attention was something Hao Jianqiang definitely didn't want to see.
The more attention is paid to this time, the more resentment the princess may erupt on the day her identity is exposed, and it is inevitable that her sister will not be implicated at that time.
"Your Highness, my sister is still young, I don't want her to come into contact with these too early!"
Hao Jianqiang took a deep breath and refused, he had to refuse.
"To be honest, I can't think of a reason why you rejected me!"
Wang Nu was stunned for a moment, looked at Hao Jianqiang with some puzzlement, and said, "The reason you gave me obviously did not convince me, in this world, only strength can bring a happy life, and without strength, you can only struggle on the verge of suffering like you used to, don't you want your sister to become stronger?" β
"Your Highness doesn't have a sister or brother, does he?"
Hao Jianqiang suddenly smiled, smiling so proudly that the princess couldn't help but be stunned, and nodded subconsciously.
"No wonder you don't understand, it's not that I don't want my sister to become stronger, but as an older brother, I want my sister to be happy, happy childhood, happy growth, even if her talent is good, if she doesn't want to, I won't force it, I will follow her every choice, this is the most basic thing to do as an older brother!"
Hao Jianqiang seemed to be deeply immersed in memories, and said, "Maybe I'm not a qualified brother, Xiaoyue has been living a difficult life in the slums with me since she was very young, and I was still very ordinary at that time, so ordinary that even if I tried my best, I couldn't make my sister live a better life!" β
"Then why are you refusing? You should know that what I can give you can't do in a long time! β
Wang Nu looked at Hao Jianqiang in puzzlement, Rao is she has a good grasp of the general trend, and she can't help but wonder at this time.
"It's different, if Satsuki didn't have the potential she has now, would you still do this?"
Hao Jianqiang did not shy away from looking directly into the eyes of the princess, "The greater the ability, the more you have to shoulder, I'm afraid you know this better than me!" β
The princess was silent, because she really couldn't refute Hao Jianqiang's words.
"So I won't let anyone control her future until Xiaoyue becomes an adult, I will do my best to support her, so that she can grow up happily, and she can only decide the future!"
Hao Jianqiang looked at the princess with great determination.
"Hehe, I have to admit that your words touched me!"
Wang Nu smiled lightly, and suddenly the words changed, the smile on her face quickly converged, and she said resolutely, "But you may not understand the importance of that girl to us, I tell you now, Hao Yue's future achievements will definitely surpass you, and even be able to stand at the top of this world, if she has not awakened, it will be fine, but since she has awakened, I will definitely not allow her to waste a little time!" β
"I'm just telling you this to make things easier, but at the same time, you have to know that she's just a six-year-old, so what if you don't allow it? I have a lot of ways to get that little girl to work willingly! β
A smile on the princess's face couldn't help but smile, this is the smile that belongs to the victor.
Gaba - Gaba -
Hao Jianqiang subconsciously clenched his fists, he only realized one thing at this time, the princess may have come to him only to inform him of the results, not to ask for his opinion, as the princess said, only a small means can make Hao Yue take the initiative to work hard.
"Okay, go down, it seems that you are not suitable to see that little girl now!"
Wang Nu waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't treat that girl badly, you will do things well in the future, and I will naturally let you meet when it is time to meet!" β
"I see!"
Hao Jianqiang lowered his head, although his heart was full of anger at this moment, although his fists were already clenched white at this moment, but the only thing he could do was to lower his head.
Walking out of the Allied headquarters, Hao Jianqiang understood that from this moment on, there was already a rift between him and the princess, or that the attitude of the princess towards him had changed.
"You must not let Satsuki stay by the side of the princess!"
Hao Jianqiang took a deep breath and walked towards the Wang family, it was difficult to support himself, at this time he needed someone to help him analyze and sort out a feasible path.
Allied headquarters.
"Your Highness, he seems to have developed a resistance to you!"
The Grand Commander Heshaw stood beside the princess.
"Well, I know, but it's also something that can't be helped, you can't have it both ways, you should understand what that little girl's future means to us!"
The princess nodded incomprehensibly, although Hao Jianqiang's talent was indeed good, but the princess was now faced with a choice between gold and silver, and the result was obvious.
"So what are we going to do? Do you want to-"
Hexiao glanced at the princess, as if asking for the princess's opinion.
"Hehe, Uncle He, you should be better at the way of the emperor than me, with that little girl in our hands, do you think we still need to do those things that add to the snake? In other words, the fish and the bear's paw are still in my hands! β
Wang Nu smiled, stood up, and said, "I'm going to take a look at that little girl!" β
