In a rather luxurious restaurant in Yangzhou City, Chu Chu was sitting in an exquisitely decorated private room, facing a whole table of delicacies in front of her, but she couldn't arouse the slightest interest in enjoying the food.

Yang Wenxi was very contented, he ate a mouthful of food, took another sip of wine, and said with a smile: "Chuchu, I heard that you found your biological father, I haven't had time to congratulate you, so today's meal is my treat." Yes, I'll take you around the street later, if you have something you like, it's all mine, how about it?"

Chu Chu twitched the corners of her mouth, but said nothing.

This rich man's method of congratulations is really simple and straightforward, which makes her... extremely useful.

Seeing that Chuchu didn't seem to be very interested, Yang Wenxi frowned, and put down the wine cup in his hand: "Why, could it be that your biological father treated you badly?"

Chu Chu sighed, shook her head, and said: "Father is very good, but... there is a wife in the family, I always feel that if I recognize my relatives, it is better not to recognize them."

Before she recognized her relatives, she was a guest of Xiaoyao County King, and she would raise her head when she saw anyone, but now that she recognized Xue Yue as her father, she became an illegitimate daughter. However, she could feel that her identity was not as good as before.

That's right, illegitimate daughters are always in the dark.

In the past, Chu Chu also spurned her illegitimate daughter.

Now that she has become an illegitimate daughter, she doesn't need to mention how uncomfortable she is.

After hearing her words, Yang Wenxi nodded, but didn't answer.

The two were silent for a while, Chuchu drank a few sips of wine, and seemed to be emboldened, and said: "Speaking of which, I have been in Yangzhou City for a few days. Brother Yang, why don't you come to see me?"

Yang Wenxi smiled wryly, and said: "Speaking of this matter, Miss Chuchu, don't blame me. It's really because my name has fallen to Sun Shan, and my family... has stricter control over me. Now, I study almost day and night."

He didn't say this to fool Chuyou.

Ever since he returned to Yang's house, he was bored reading in the study room, unable to go out the second door, and he had to say hello to the family in advance if he wanted to come out for a meal, otherwise he would not be able to come out at all.

The prisoner was also looser and faster than him.

Hearing this, Chu Chu lightly said "Ah": "So that's how it is... But those who passed the exam that time were very rare. Brother Yang, you only took the exam once, and you are still young. You will have a bright future in the future."

Yang Wenxi smiled wryly again.

This reason, which was reasonable in previous years, will not work this year.

This year's No. [-] Scholar Lang and Tan Hua Lang are both admitted to the imperial examination.

People can do it, why can't he do it?

To be honest, Yang Wenxi enjoyed no less resources than those two young masters in the capital.

Thinking of this time, Yang Wenxi was filled with melancholy.

Seeing this, Chu Chu quickly changed the topic to another place: "Brother Yang, speaking of it, I never knew that the Yang family is so powerful in Yangzhou.

That day, I went to find you with the token you gave me. When the shopkeeper saw me, he was arrogant, but when he saw the token, he was so humble to the extreme—Brother Yang, you Why didn't you tell me earlier that the token is such an important object? "

There was some complaint in her words, as if she just thought that what Yang Wenxi gave her was just the most ordinary jade pendant, but she didn't expect that a small jade pendant would change a person's attitude like a world-shaking change.

Really a little scary.

As expected, Yang Wenxi's attention was diverted, he chuckled lightly, and said: "The token is really just an insignificant object, it's just that the people below panicked for a while, did it scare you?"

Chu Chu shook her head with a complicated expression: "No."

Yang Wenxi laughed again: "It's not easy for you, a little girl, to come all the way from the capital, but are you going with the Second Highness?"

"Yes," Chu Chu nodded, "I heard that Yangzhou is very beautiful, so I wanted to come and see it, and it happened that the Second Highness was also coming, so I naturally begged to take me with me."

It's not a secret, even if Chu Chu didn't say it, Yang Wenxi probably already knew about it, if he denied it, it would appear deliberate, and at that time, Yang Wenxi might suspect that his approach had ulterior motives.

"I see." Yang Wenxi nodded, "Yangzhou has a beautiful scenery. When I go back today, I will make some arrangements so that you can enjoy yourself comfortably."

Since he can't go out, he can only let others do it for him.

Chu Chu nodded and thanked.

The two lowered their heads to eat again. During this period, Chu Chu picked up the topic several times, but they were all transferred to other places lightly by Yang Wenxi. After a meal, Chu Chu didn't ask what she wanted to ask, but she was tricked by Yang Wenxi. Talk less.

The second prince heard more and more things were wrong, so he knocked on the door ahead of time to stop the two of them talking.

Let them go on like this, it's not a bad thing to blame.

Looking at the second prince who suddenly pushed the door in, Yang Wenxi was slightly taken aback, and the smile on his face subconsciously subsided: "This is..."

Chu Chu quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks and got up, and stood beside the Second Prince: "This is the Second Highness."

Hearing this, the expression on Yang Wenxi's face changed slightly, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and made a big salute: "Craftsman Yang Wenxi, I have seen the Second Highness."

Yang Wenxi has no official position, even though his family is rich and wealthy, but in front of the second prince, he still can only call himself a "grassman" and kneel and kowtow.

Chu Chu was standing next to the second prince, even if Yang Wenxi made such a great gift, she had no intention of avoiding it, instead she looked down at Yang Wenxi condescendingly, her eyes were indifferent, and there was even a little majesty in them.

"Mr. Yang, take it easy." The second prince said softly, "Miss Chu and I came here together. Seeing that it's getting late, I just wanted to come over to see if you have finished eating."

time to go.

let's go now.

Hearing this, Yang Wenxi dared to get up, but still did not dare to raise his head, his gaze was always on his toes: "It turns out that Miss Chu came with the Second Highness, but I didn't think carefully enough and kept the Second Highness waiting for a long time."

The second prince smiled and waved his hands, his eyes fell on Chu Chu: "Miss Chu, it's almost there, shall we go back?"

"Okay." Chu Chu nodded, then turned to look at Yang Wenxi, "Brother Yang, shall I go first?"

"Respectfully send off the Second Highness." Yang Wenxi cupped his hands and was about to kneel down again.

"No." The second prince raised his hand, didn't stay any longer, turned around and left with Chu Chu.

The Yang family is not someone who can be wooed, otherwise, he would have to sit down and have a drink with Mr. Yang no matter what.

As soon as the two left, the expression on Yang Wenxi's face suddenly relaxed, and he sat on the ground slowly, continuing to eat the food on the table.

With his appearance like this, he didn't look respectful at all.
