Miss, you are my future wife

Chapter 257 Shen Jie's Favorite Toy

"I thought that the bishops and queens of soldiers and horses were all loyal to the king." Xiao Yao looked at the back of Shen Hongsheng leaving alone, and repeated this sentence.

Shen Hongsheng still ignored him, treating him like air.

"I thought that the bishops and queens of soldiers and horses were all loyal to the king." Shen Jie said to her father.

"Besides the chessboard, soldiers and horses, bishops and queens, all will only be loyal to their own interests, and the king is the one who has the right to formulate the rules for the distribution of interests." Shen Hongsheng replied leisurely.

"This is your excuse for not being able to restrain your subordinates?" Since Shen Hongsheng "couldn't hear" his speech, Xiao Yao felt that there was no need for him to be too polite.

"This is your excuse for not being able to restrain your subordinates?" Shen Jie said.

"No, that's why he's still standing here." Shen Hongsheng replied.

"Do you regret that the sword didn't take away his head?" Shen Jie said.

"Do you think I can't do it?" Shen Hongsheng said with a smile.

Shen Jie shrugged noncommittally.

While speaking, Shen Hongsheng had already sat back on the gorgeous golden throne. Even though the throne cost tens of thousands of gold, he still refused to leave a place for the second person, so Shen Jie could only sit on the armrest of the throne.

Xiao Yao knew that there was absolutely no room for him there, so he didn't go up there to make fun of himself.

"People of my age don't like playing with toys anymore," Shen Hongsheng said slowly, "But I won't easily destroy my precious daughter's beloved toys, which would seriously damage the parent-child relationship. "

When Shen Jie's beloved toy heard this, it almost burst into laughter with a "ha".

"Do you think that, like those other things, he is fascinated by the benefits you promised?" Shen Jie said.

"Of course he didn't. Don't think that I don't know who he is. The interests he cares about are not here. I allowed him to come here because I have an obligation to maintain the rules under my rule." Shen Hongsheng explained.

The more Xiao Yao listened, the more confused he became. What kind of charades are you two playing?

"In order to maintain your so-called rules, do you let those people kill your daughter?" Shen Jie accused.

"I have never given that kind of order." Shen Hongsheng said calmly.

Shen Jie just wanted to open her mouth to refute, but she opened her mouth but was unable to speak - she knew that Shen Hongsheng's shadow was telling the truth.

"But you promised a bounty for killing her!" Xiao Yao roared angrily.

Just as Shen Jie wanted to "simultaneously interpret", Shen Hongsheng already spoke:

"If there is order, there must be rules, and if there are rules, there will be loopholes. Only by grasping the loopholes can the order work for me. Didn't you just take advantage of the loopholes to stand here?"

Seeing that Shen Hongsheng finally paid attention to him, Xiao Yao replied: "If you want Shen Jie to stay, why don't you go to find her yourself, but guard your throne and give orders? This throne is beautiful, after all, it is the royal power that controls it. Are you still ruling the throne?"

Shen Hongsheng's face sank, and he didn't speak, as if he had been poked in a sore spot.

"That big fly is also you, right?" Xiao Yao pointed out: "Everyone can see it, it's your face. Your shadow can be divided into two, one does dirty work, and the other pretends to be a good person to buy people's hearts. Am I right?"

"That's not me." Shen Hongsheng said with a gloomy face.

"Isn't it?" Xiao Yao raised his eyebrows.

There was actually a bit of bitterness in Shen Hongsheng's voice: "That Lord of the Flies Barr... is in essence just the embodiment of a monster named 'Capital', without free will, it only acts according to instinct, and is not fully influenced by it." My control."

"'Capital'?!" Xiao Yao and Shen Jie exclaimed together.

"I got rid of them this time," Shen Hongsheng warned Shen Jie: "But next time, when you are targeted by 'capital' again... even I may not be able to protect you every time."

"But..." Shen Jie hesitated to speak: "Why does 'capital' have your face?"

Shen Hongsheng raised his daughter's shoulders, hugged her and stood up, and the two of them walked to the big window of the palace together: "One day, my life will come to an end, and you will inherit all of this—at that Then the face of the Lord of the Flies will be your pretty little face."

"I don't want it!" Shen Jie protested loudly: "I don't want to become a cang—even if I want to become a bee."

"You don't think you have a choice, do you?" Shen Hongsheng smiled and said, "You don't think you are free, do you?"

Shen Jie: "I..."

"No one will care what you think, and no one will care who you are," Shen Hongsheng told Shen Jie: "When that day comes, in the eyes of 'them', you will be 'capital' Your face will become the face of 'capital', and no one will believe you, and no one will believe that 'Wang' is just a mask of 'capital'."

"'They'... who are they?" Shen Jie asked Shen Hongsheng.

"'They' are all the people living in this skyscraper," Shen Hongsheng introduced kindly: "How many residents do you think live here?"

"I don't know," Shen Jie said, "Thousands? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands?"

"31785," Shen Hongsheng told Shen Jie, "they are all employees of Miwei Group."

"This way..." Shen Jie said.

"31785 employees, do you know what they are? They are all mouths that need to eat, and I have the responsibility to provide them with food." Shen Hongsheng said proudly.

"So, you are a hardworking little bee." Xiao Yao teased.

"But in the eyes of many thugs outside, the buzzing flying insects are flies." Shen Hongsheng said: "They infiltrated, incited, and tried to hang all the flies they imagined on the street lamps, but they didn't realize that they wanted to be flies. It's nothing but maggots."

This scene was described so joyously that Xiao Yao almost made a sound, but he managed to hold it back.He thought about it and felt that this topic was beyond the scope of the topic, so he didn't comment.

"Even so, you still feel that you have a mission and responsibility to these people below, don't you, Dad?" Shen Jie's voice gradually softened.

"Almost," Shen Hongsheng replied: "You don't really think that holding the royal power is a beautiful job, and being a member of the royal family is a beautiful job, right?"

"I... never thought about it that way." Shen Jie said in a low voice.

"Prosperity and wealth are just appearances seen by the world." Shen Hongsheng opened his arms and said, "But how many people can see the responsibility and sacrifice behind this? Can you see it?"

"I..." Shen Jie said with some hesitation, "I've already experienced this, haven't I?"

"If it weren't for your dissatisfaction, would we still be talking here?" Shen Hongsheng smiled slightly: "My good daughter, if I hadn't been the face of this order, would you have been born with a golden key in your mouth? For more than ten years, you have enjoyed the world's best educational resources, living resources, material resources, spiritual resources, and everything in the world is like a star in the sky to your peers, but it is within your reach."

"So, what's the price?" Xiao Yao couldn't help interjecting.

"The price... the price is nothing more than sacrificing your love and marriage." Shen Jie murmured sadly, "I thought this was just an insignificant price for me..."

"Those thugs always try to confuse marriage with love for the sake of subverting and destroying that's all. Correct marriage is the cornerstone of maintaining order, and it has nothing to do with love. Wrong marriage makes the temple of order lose its support and collapse. By then Everyone will lose everything for your waywardness. Do you know the price now?"

Shen Hongsheng's tone gradually became impassioned. Just as Xiao Yao was about to refute him, Shen Jie had already raised the white flag first: "Father, I actually understand the truth..."

The man in suit and armor sighed heavily. Seeing his daughter's tone soften, his tone became more earnest: "Actually, you are very lucky. At least Zhengkai likes you..."

"Dad." Shen Jie said.

"As for the love between you and Xiao Xiao, Order never interferes with personal feelings, and I don't intend to do so either." Shen Hongsheng said abruptly.

"Huh?" "Huh?" Xiao Yao and Shen Jie said in unison.

"You don't have to say anything, you can admit your mistakes, you can make an appointment for a marriage, you can repair the garden, and you two can have a tryst as usual. As long as you don't get caught, don't be too high-profile, and stick to the bottom line, what does it matter?" Shen Hongsheng said without hindrance. Said.

Xiao Yao & Shen Jie: "..."

"No one needs to sacrifice love," Shen Hongsheng continued to talk to himself: "After you get married, you will definitely be able to handle Xiao Zhang's child. You can continue to fight with Xiao Xiao. Isn't that how you all come here?"

"Enough!" Xiao Yao roared angrily.

Shen Hongsheng looked at Xiao Yao and raised his eyebrows.

"What you said is very beautiful," Xiao Yao said with a sneer, "sacrifice, price, mission, people who don't know will think you are the people's savior, or the Christ on the cross - but ah, the one who paid the sacrifice and the price Everyone is Shen Jie, a little girl who is not yet an adult, what price did you pay yourself?"

"The sacrifices and prices I paid? That's too much," Shen Hongsheng sighed slightly: "But, why should I list them all for you? For me, the biggest price I paid in this matter is Just the loss of my daughter's love. Everything else is nothing compared to that."

Just as Xiao Yao was about to retort Shen Hongsheng's hypocrisy subconsciously, Shen Jie was slightly taken aback: "Father..."

The boy swallowed what he was about to say.

Shen Hongsheng caressed Shen Jie's meow head, a pair of golden pupils were full of doting look: "Daughter mistakenly thinks that I don't love her, mistakenly thinks that I only have money and interests in my heart, without her happiness, mistakenly thinks that I don't love her. Just treat her as a commodity and a tool to sell money."

"Are these really just 'misconceptions'?" Xiao Yao pointed out.

"You call me 'future father-in-law' shamelessly, and then openly sow discord in front of our father and daughter. Is this how you act as a son-in-law?" Shen Hongsheng accused unceremoniously.

"..." Xiao Yao would not know how to answer for a while.

"Father, don't talk about Xiao Yao like that." Shen Jie's tone was a bit difficult to judge, whether she was complaining or acting like a baby.

Shen Hongsheng sighed and said: "Oh, Dad actually knows that they all came from this age. Dad was also young at the same time, and he was also fascinated by the so-called love."

Xiao Yao thought to himself, you may not know that I love your daughter several times more than she loves me.

It's just that these words may not be suitable for this occasion, so Xiao Yao chose to remain cautiously silent.

"How long have you two known each other?" Shen Hongsheng asked suddenly.

"More than two months?" "I don't know, three months?" Xiao Yao and Shen Jie replied in unison.

"Forgive me for speaking bluntly, the poor are born with treachery, and the rich have a conscience." Shen Hongsheng's golden pupils looked straight at Xiao Yao, and then at Shen Jie: "I'm not saying that poor people must be bad people. People must be good people, but from the perspective of the level of risk and the integrity of the sample, two or three months may not be enough for you to understand him, not enough for you to entrust your sincerity rashly."

"That's reasonable." Xiao Yao decided to be polite to Shen Hongsheng: "You and Shen Jie are welcome to investigate my character more."

"No, it's enough, Xiao Yao is sincere." Shen Jie retorted gently but firmly.

"If you are sincere or not..." Shen Hongsheng said, "Even if you are sincere now, there is no guarantee for the future... You don't remember your poor little lady anymore?"

"Here we go again, young lady who can't decide, right?" Shen Jie's tone was a little anxious: "That's just an unfortunate example, and Xiao Yao is not a gambler."

"What kind of gambler? Little lady?" Xiao Yao asked in a daze, "Can someone tell me what happened?"

"It's not a big deal," Shen Hongsheng explained, "it's the kid's little uncle, who was also from the poor class, and was a hard drive player. He gambled in Southeast Asia and couldn't pay off the usury loan. The creditor went to her little lady. Later, the little girl My uncle took the little lady to Paris Island for a trip, and the little uncle killed the little lady to cheat the insurance, that's all."

"Uh..." Xiao Yao said.

"At the beginning, the two of them also fell in love freely, and they also broke through the resistance of the family to force their marriage," Shen Hongsheng said with a sigh: "For a daughter of a rich family, if her mind is full of so-called love and she is cheated of money and body It's all small things, you know? As her father, can I not be extra careful to protect her? This is my duty."

"Strictly speaking, you are not her father," Xiao Yao thought for a while, and replied, "You are just a shadow."

"Then I am also her father." Shen Hongsheng declared solemnly.

"Yes, yes, I agree," Xiao Yao said, "This is your palace, and I am in it. In my impression, as the owner of the palace, you can observe my soul, and I I know, shadows can’t lie—so, you feel your conscience and take a good look at me, then tell Shen Jie, and tell yourself, I, Xiao Yao, am I the kind of little uncle? I’m Ben Did it come with your family's money?"

Shen Hongsheng pondered for a long time: "This is where the problem lies."

"What?" Xiao Yao waited for a long time, and was a little surprised when he heard such a sentence.

"Although it hasn't happened yet, in your aura, I observe Qi and see that you have the tendency to kill your wife, just like Gu Cheng." Shen Hongsheng told Xiao Yao solemnly: "Although you Nothing has been done yet, maybe in the not-too-distant future..."

"What nonsense!" Xiao Yao turned pale with shock, and Shen Jie was too shocked to speak.
