Chapter 538 Enough (1)
Gong Sheng froze. At this time, since the music was very loud, Gong Sheng may be the only one who had heard his words. The joy from earlier was beaten back to the back of his mind and he pondered the matter, face serious.
“We have many princesses, if Nephew wishes to marry, it does not have to be Mo’er.”
Jin Yun could not help but glance at Gong Yimo. At this moment, she was talking to Gong Jue. Seemingly having mentioned something interesting from when she was in Yuheng, her eyes were curved in amusement.
Such vivid life, he…why can’t he monopolize it for himself?
So, he laughed and said, “Perhaps Uncle’s daughters are all excellent, but just Mo’er is enough for me.”
Gong Sheng’s face sank. Jin Yun quickly said, “I know that Uncle may still be wary of me and think that I have some ploys, that I’m eyeing the weapons in Mo’er’s hands, but Mo’er said to me that she will one day show it the world. And so, before that…I can wait!”
Gong Sheng was stunned. He did not expect that Mo’er would bring that thing out to the world.
“So, I only hope that I may set up a marriage contract with Mo’er. After she hands over the weapon, please allow me to…marry her home!”
Jin Yun lowered his head. The purple and gold crown pinned on his hair was not even the slightest hint as fine as his brows and eyes. He looked devout and focused at this moment, but with a vague sense of caution.
“If Uncle agrees, then I, Jin Yun, make a vow to marry only her in this life! If I breach that promise, then may man and God punish me!”
Gong Sheng was shocked at his words! He looked him up and down several times, and in the end, some emotion actually welled out of him.
Indeed, Mo’er is still the best judge of characters…
He had to say that if he really married Mo’er off, then Jin Yun is indeed a very good candidate! He is young, handsome, and the ruler of a kingdom. Though he should be arrogant, he is willing to humble himself and plead to him for Mo’er’s sake, and even willing to swear to marry only her in his life!
He had been emperor for so long so he knows very well how much pressure it is to favor only one person exclusively, just as he did with Consort Xue back then.
But what he couldn’t do, and isn’t even willing to do himself right now, this young man is willing to do for his daughter!
As an outsider, he definitely does not approve of Jin Yun’s actions, but as a father, it was a great admiration!
It may have been the alcohol getting to his head or maybe something else, but he wondered. If Mo’er really brings out that thing, then why can’t she marry? Even though he was quite reluctant to see her go as Mo’er was smart and capable, sacrificing his daughter’s happiness for the sake of development wasn’t something that Gong Sheng was unwilling to settle for. It’s not as if Dayu had run out of talents, after all.
So, he opened his mouth, wishing to say yes. But at this moment, Gong Jue suddenly stood up!
The music suddenly stopped. Even Gong Yimo was confused. Gong Jue had been looking at the emperor’s side from the very beginning. Did he overhear something? It couldn’t be, right? She couldn’t hear anything in this noise.
Gong Sheng glanced at him, a little displeased. But he suddenly remembered something and did not ask anything. Instead, he beckoned to Gong Jue.
Gong Jue went over to him, but his cold eyes were on Jin Yun, laced within it cold killing intent.
Seemingly feeling something, Jin Yun raised his head to look at him. Gong Jue…He knew this person, but the hostility emitting from him can’t help but put him on alert.
Gong Sheng patted Gong Jue’s shoulder and smiled at Jin Yun. “This is Our ninth son. We have given him full authority over the bank cooperation.”
Then, he added with a proclamation, “This is also the brother that Mo’er cares most about. The two of them share a wonderful relationship!”
