Chapter 401 is meaningful
"Xiao Xiao, why did you think of coming to see me? How long have you been waiting here? If you want to see me next time, just go directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Come with me here." Li Xiaoxiao didn't even bother to give him a glance and walked straight to a small alley nearby.
After many years, Cheng Kun saw Li Xiaoxiao again and felt that she was more beautiful than before, and his heart was pounding.
Without any hesitation, he followed.
There was a main road outside and few people passed by. Li Xiaoxiao stopped quickly and turned around with an expressionless face.
"Just say what you want to say. I'm listening." Cheng Kun's lips curled up in a smile that he thought was very handsome, and his voice was much gentler than before.
"Then I'll be frank with you. The emperor issued an imperial decree granting marriage yesterday, did you know that?" Li Xiaoxiao's face was cold.
"I know that." Cheng Kun felt a little embarrassed. The imperial edict had just been issued, so why did Xiao Xiao come to him? She must want to talk to him.
He also secretly blamed himself for letting Xiaoxiao come to him. He was a man and should have taken the initiative.
"Since you already know this, I'm not familiar with you. So, can this marriage be cancelled?" Li Xiaoxiao stated her purpose directly.
"What?" Cheng Kun looked incredulous. Didn't Xiaoxiao come to talk to him? Why did she mention breaking off the engagement? Why did she want to break off the engagement?
"I mean this marriage is called off." Li Xiaoxiao repeated again.
Her serious look made Cheng Kun have no doubt about the truthfulness of her words. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and take a deep breath.
"Our marriage was ordered by the emperor himself. There is no room for resistance or cancellation of the engagement." Cheng Kun's original excitement disappeared in an instant.
"Do you understand me? Do you know what kind of person I am? Why did you ask the emperor for an imperial edict without my consent?" Li Xiaoxiao asked in a low voice and walked towards Cheng Kun.
As Li Xiaoxiao approached, Cheng Kun involuntarily retreated backwards, and finally leaned against the wall behind him, with nowhere to retreat.
"I, I fell in love with you at first sight. I know I'm average looking and was afraid that you wouldn't like me, so I went to the emperor to ask for an imperial decree to grant us marriage." Li Xiaoxiao is tall, taller than most women.
Cheng Kun is about 1 meters tall, about the same height as Li Xiaoxiao. He didn't dare to look into Li Xiaoxiao's eyes. He looked panicked and looked away.
He was indeed wrong in doing this, but wasn't it because he liked Li Xiaoxiao? She was so beautiful. Ever since he met her that time, he could never forget her. Every time he thought of her, his heart started pounding.
"So you ignored my wishes and went to ask for permission." Li Xiaoxiao was almost furious. Why couldn't she stand Cheng Kun?
"I will treat you well in the future, let you be my legal wife, and take charge of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion." Cheng Kun swallowed hard, feeling a little weird.
He is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Everyone who sees him will bow and scrape. So why does he feel such a strong sense of oppression when facing Li Xiaoxiao, and he doesn't even dare to look at her?
"I don't care about being your wife, and I have no interest in your Prime Minister's Mansion. I will never marry you no matter what." Li Xiaoxiao squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, each word was uttered with gritted teeth.
Damn it, who cares about his wife, who cares about his prime minister's mansion? She is capable of earning money herself, why should she rely on a man?
No matter what time, she will never rely on anyone. A woman can live freely, unrestrainedly and unfetteredly only if she has money in her hands.
At the rate she is earning now, I believe that in the near future she will be able to buy land and a house in Beijing, and her life will not be worse than anyone else.
Cheng Kun is just a dandy boy in the Prime Minister's Mansion. He doesn't even have the ability to support himself. What's the use of her being with such a useless man?
"As long as you follow me, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory in the future, and I will love you very much." Cheng Kun made his last struggle. He really liked Li Xiaoxiao.
He had come into contact with many women from childhood to adulthood, fat or thin, of all kinds, but only Li Xiaoxiao made him unforgettable, and he had the idea of marrying her many times.
It was not easy to obtain the emperor's grant of marriage, and there was no way he would cancel the engagement, absolutely not.
"I'll say this one last time. I don't like you and I won't marry you. If you don't cancel the engagement, I will use my own methods to ruin this marriage. You can give it a try. I will definitely keep my word."
Li Xiaoxiao stared at him closely, his face showing extreme seriousness and his eyes were cold, as if he wanted to kill him the next moment.
"I won't back out." Cheng Kun felt her cold gaze, but still refused stubbornly. If the marriage was canceled, it would be impossible for him to marry Li Xiaoxiao again.
The emperor may issue an imperial decree for the sake of his father, but he will never issue a second decree, and it will be to the same woman.
In this case, where is the emperor's dignity and face?
"Okay, very good. Then you just wait. Don't cry too ugly when the time comes." Li Xiaoxiao's lips curled up into an icy arc. If eyes could torture people, Cheng Kun in front of him would have died several times.
After saying that, he took a step back, turned around and left gracefully. After walking a few more steps, he looked back at Cheng Kun, and then a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Only Cheng Kun was left, leaning against the wall. Li Xiaoxiao's eyes were so scary that his legs felt weak and he wanted to collapse to the ground in the next second.
It took him a long time to calm down. He didn't expect that Li Xiaoxiao had such a side to her. Just now, just now, he almost agreed to cancel the engagement.
Fortunately, Li Xiaoxiao left, otherwise he really couldn't hold on.
But no matter how scared he was, he couldn't cancel the engagement, absolutely not. No matter how powerful Li Xiaoxiao was, she would be his wife after marriage. Could she still murder her husband?
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cheng Kun did not tell anyone about this matter. His determination to marry Li Xiaoxiao was not shaken at all, but became even more determined.
Accustomed to pretentious women, Li Xiaoxiao, who has a strong personality, has a stronger desire to conquer. He even looks forward to the wedding taking place as soon as possible.
The driver took the penalty on his own initiative. He did not follow into the alley, so he naturally did not know what happened inside. Therefore, Cheng Kun was not worried about what he would say.
Li Xiaoxiao returned to Si Mansion quickly. Li Dahai and Sun knew what she was going to do, and they had been guarding the gate since she left.
After waiting for a long time, Li Xiaoxiao finally arrived.
"So, did he agree to cancel the engagement?" Knowing that outside was not the place to talk, Sun quickly pulled Li Xiaoxiao back to the room and asked impatiently.
