At the critical moment, Zhuo Shuhang pushed Zhuo Changming out without hesitation, washing himself off completely.

"Hmph." Cheng Lianxun snorted coldly, not believing that he was really innocent, "Do whatever he asks you to do, do you?"

Is Zhuo Shuhang so obedient?

"Fourth brother has taken care of me since he was a child, and now is the most critical time for him. As a brother, I can't be too soft-footed when it's time to help."

Zhuo Shuhang continued to clear his charges.

"Why did he ask you to tie me up?" Cheng Lianxun didn't care about his position.

After Zhuo Shuhang took a sip of the soup, he replied: "It's delicious and delicious."

"And then?" Cheng Lian asked.

"There is no more." Zhuo Shuhang took another sip of soup.

"..." Cheng Lianxun didn't believe it, "How does he want to use me against your third brother?"

"..." Zhuo Shuhang paused for a while while drinking the soup, and continued to drink the soup after the pause, without any intention of answering.

"Hmph." Cheng Lianxun sneered, "Don't dare to say it?"

"It's not that I dare not say it." Zhuo Shuhang put down the bowl and said helplessly, "I don't know. He only let me watch you and didn't let you communicate with the outside world. I don't know anything else."

Cheng Lianxun fell silent.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "How long are you going to put me under house arrest?"

In the current situation, other than trying to find a way to escape.

We can only hope that what Zhuo Shuhang said is true and that he won't do anything to her, just put her under house arrest.

"You can go out after the duel between the third brother and the fourth brother falls into the grave." Zhuo Shuhang said.

"How long?" Cheng Lianxun's voice turned cold.

If they were going to duel for a year, it would be difficult to put her under house arrest for a year.

"Their open and secret battles have reached the point of intensification. It can take as little as a week, as long as half a month, and the longest will not exceed a month. You can rest assured."

Zhuo Shuhang knew that she was running out of patience, so he quickly comforted her.

She lowered her eyes slightly, covered by her long eyelashes, Zhuo Shuhang couldn't see the emotion in her eyes, let alone guess what she was thinking at the moment.

Silence descended on the two of them again, and Zhuo Shuhang had almost said what he should say.

He watched her while drinking the soup.

After a long silence, Cheng Lianxun suddenly looked up at him: "You don't want to be the head of the Zhuo family?"

After knowing each other for so long, she still couldn't understand Zhuo Shuhang.

No matter how sincere he is, it always makes people feel that sincerity is his protective color. The real him has never been shown.

But in the current situation, she has no other choice but to take one step at a time.

"If I had been born a few years earlier, even if there was no hope, I would definitely have fought for it. But I am only eighteen years old now, and I have no foundation. How can I compete with my third and fourth brothers?"

Speaking of this, Zhuo Shuhang seemed a little excited and put down the bowl.

"Look at this." He stretched out a little finger from his fist, and used his thumb to draw out a piece of flesh as small as a fingernail. "I'm just a little ant in their eyes, and arguing with them is a joke."

"Then can you be willing?" Cheng Lianxun thought of the ancient emperor's home.

Everyone is fighting for the highest position, but I can't compete because of my age, and I feel aggrieved thinking about it.

"Although I have been depressed, I am not reconciled." Zhuo Shuhang spoke the truth very sincerely.

"Why?" Cheng Lianxun didn't quite believe it.

"Those who are able work harder. The stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility. You must not know how sour it feels to work all night until dawn when everyone else is sleeping."
