Chapter 111: Perseverance

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

If it was before, or if the Emperor had changed the topic now, Lin Xiaocao would have smiled very cooperatively when he saw Wang Fuyu's attitude.

However, at this moment, in the dining hall, where the side-by-side wang cursed and suddenly became quiet, Lin Xiaocao didn't even smile at all. He stared at the Emperor with a serious and shocked gaze, and even a trace of unprepared confusion.

Wang Jinxiu's hand that Lin Xiaocao was holding stiffened in mid-air. She was also at a loss for what to do. After hearing her father's words, her first reaction was to nervously look at Lin Xiaocao's expression.

She cared about him, Already cared to the extreme, She cared so much that she didn't care about anything at all, so she didn't even think about getting engaged or getting married to Lin Xiaocao. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but she was temporarily running away. Such a topic might surprise her, but it would undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on Lin Xiaocao. This was something that Her Highness didn't want to see.

After all, before she and him, there was a mountain that even Wang Jinxiu felt somewhat powerless. It was not the so-called knot between Lin Xiaocao and the Emperor, but a woman dressed in red.

Many times, Wang Jinxiu even thought that if she persisted, her future days might not be easier than her mother's. Having such an opponent was enough for her to fight with great interest for a lifetime.

Moreover, even if he took 10,000 steps back, not to mention Linglong, Lin Xiaocao's current state of mind could not withstand much mental pressure from women.

Ever since he was young, the moment Qin Tianjiao pulled him out of the rubbish dump that winter, his heart seemed to have been filled with hatred.

Perhaps Linglong could occupy a tiny but precious corner in his heart. That was the precipitation of the two of them from childhood to adulthood for more than ten years, but what about him?

At this moment, Wang Jinxiu's mood was in a trance. She tried her best to understand Lin Xiaocao's mood and situation, but she subconsciously felt sorry for herself. The thoughts in her mind seemed to have changed into two positions. She blinked her beautiful big eyes and looked at Lin Xiaocao. She then continued to lower her head and eat silently.

"You don't agree?"

The Emperor waited for a while, but before Lin Xiaocao could reply, he asked lightly.

"No."

Lin Xiaocao gulped down the milk in front of him, took a deep breath, and shook his head.

"Then that's the default."

The Emperor chuckled. His attitude seemed gentle, but his eyes were exceptionally sharp. He looked straight into Lin Xiaocao's eyes.

The corner of Lin Xiaocao's mouth twitched. After a moment of silence, he shook his head again, "Not really."

Wang Jinxiu's body trembled slightly. She gritted her teeth and lifted her head to help Lin Xiaocao out. She smiled and said, "Dad, I'm still young. I'm only twenty years old. I still think I'm a child. I haven't considered getting engaged yet."

"It's because you're still young that you got engaged. If you're two years older, I'll let you get married. Listen to me."

The Emperor said calmly, tapping the edge of the table with his fingers. He looked at Lin Xiaocao calmly and waited for his reply.

"You said you wouldn't judge my marriage with my brothers!"

Wang Jinxiu opened her eyes wide and said discontentedly, She's telling the truth, With countless large consortia and clans engaged in marriage and sharing benefits to a certain extent, The imperial family's decision never to marry their younger generation was almost unparalleled, The younger generation of the royal family, The Golden Generation was considered by the outside world to surpass the Emperor, because each of them doesn't have to fight too much to get a higher start, This was something that the emperor, who had been seriously injured for several years in a row, did not possess in the process of struggling upwards. Moreover, this generation of young people were so united and possessed exceptionally powerful explosive power. Under such circumstances, pushing the royal family to the peak was almost something that could be expected.

Countless people were secretly staring at this generation of the royal family. Wang Tongtian, Wang Bolong, Wang Kongqun, Wang Zhulu, Late at night, countless eldest young ladies who were arrogant, aloof, and elegant in front of outsiders were fantasizing about using their legs to tightly grip the stuffed toy. Wang Jinxiu was the youngest daughter that the emperor doted on the most, The fact that he was still in charge of the Imperial Laboratory made countless men dream of it. A few years ago, when facing the proposal of the Morgan family's first successor, Young Master Victor, the Emperor's saying, "My daughter doesn't like you, how much more money do you have?" Became a famous saying that has been circulated today. Similarly, this sentence also represented the Emperor's attitude towards his children.

He didn't need the marriage of his children to bring him benefits. What they liked was what he supported.

Perhaps the royal family would fall into the trap in decades and centuries to come, but at the very least, the younger generation of the royal family was happy and had the freedom of choice that the children of wealthy families longed for the most.

"Silly girl, I didn't interfere with anything. This is your own choice."

The Emperor narrowed his eyes and smiled. Obviously, he did not intend to talk to his daughter. He looked at Lin Xiaocao and calmly asked, "Xiaocao, what do you say?"

"I... I haven't considered this for the time being."

Lin Xiaocao's mouth moved. Even he could tell how dry and difficult his voice was, so much so that he paused twice to finish his sentence.

At this moment, it wasn't the Emperor, the War God King, or the Little Princess present.

But a father facing his daughter and her man.

From this standpoint, Lin Xiaocao's words could be said to be extremely inappropriate.

Such words meant rejection.

At the very least, it was a temporary refusal.

Never before had Lin Xiaocao felt so guilty and powerless.

Even though Wang Jinxiu's face turned pale, a small hand stretched out from under the table and tightly gripped his palm. A tender finger gently rubbed against his palm.

"I think you should give me an explanation."

The Emperor was silent for a while and said slowly. His expression and eyes were still calm, but his voice was gloomy. "Is embroidery not worthy of you?"

"I don't mean that."

Lin Xiaocao gritted his teeth and said, "But this matter should be suppressed now."

"You insist?"

The Emperor looked into his eyes and asked.

"I insist."

Lin Xiaocao replied lightly. She didn't even know what she was thinking.

"How long? I hate procrastination the most. Little Cao, you should understand that there is always a time to solve everything. It's definitely better to solve it earlier than later."

On the side, Chen Hualou smiled softly and said in a calm tone.

"Although Jinxiu is not old, she has indeed paid a lot in the past few years. She has applied for more than 10 billion yuan from Renaissance and set up two separate projects. Most of her attention has been focused on this. Therefore, there have been very few new medicines in the Royal Laboratory these past few years. Xiaocao, we are very dissatisfied with your answer."

Xia Qinwei said slowly. Her slightly hoarse voice seemed very sexy, but it revealed a very magnetic majesty.

She had quarreled with Huangfu Lingxi for a lifetime, but she really loved Wang Jinxiu from the bottom of her heart.

"This is not good!"

Huangfu Lingxi looked at Lin Xiaocao seriously. His tone was very simple, but he was very persistent.

Lin Xiaocao's forehead was covered in cold sweat. His Highness the War God, the War God King, was in an unusually helpless state.

"Enough!"

A shrill cry sounded.

Sitting beside Lin Xiaocao, Wang Jinxiu suddenly stood up and patted her chopsticks on the dining table. She stubbornly said, "You don't have to worry about my affairs. I won't eat anymore. You guys enjoy yourself."

She turned around and grabbed Lin Xiaocao, wanting to leave.

However, Lin Xiaocao was unable to pull Lin Xiaocao's body.

She shook Lin Xiaocao's hand fiercely and ran out alone.

The dining table was completely silent.

Lin Xiaocao sat there expressionlessly. He felt that the Emperor and Huangfu Lingxi should be given an explanation, but he didn't know what to explain. He could only remain stuck in a stalemate.

Half a minute.

One minute.

Two minutes passed.

Lin Xiaocao remained motionless and silent.

"Go chase after him."

The Emperor suddenly said, "Are you stupid?"
