Chapter 1068: Meeting the Beauty Again

Everyone couldn't help but have their eyes light up.

This Zheng Yue Ru, no wonder she is the Chief Manager of Liangzhou, controlling the entire financial power of Liangzhou.

The way she does things is truly impeccable.

In one night, she slapped your face, and then gave you plenty of face in return.

Furthermore...

Didn't Zheng Yue Ru suddenly call a halt just now? Now, no one suspects it was because Zheng Yue Ru had no money, but rather because she couldn't be bothered to play with Xie Kai and didn't want to make Xie Kai lose face... And at this moment, by compensating Xie Kai with all of her gold, she further expressed: first, she is not short of money; second, she only wishes to make money in harmony.

Impressive!

Thorough in every detail!

Smooth and tactful!

Give you a stick, and then give you a piece of candy to eat!

This is what a person truly in a high position looks like!

"You..."

Xie Kai was suddenly at a loss for words. A pampered playboy like him, who had lived in luxury since childhood, how could he outplay someone like Zheng Yue Ru, who had been mixing in the business world since she was young, had seen all kinds of people, and was accustomed to all sorts of schemes? It can be said that compared to Zheng Yue Ru, Xie Kai was truly too naive...

"Why, does the Crown Prince feel it is still not enough?"

Zheng Yue Ru chuckled.

"Enough, enough! This... actually, it was my fault, my fault! General Zheng is magnanimous!"

Having reached this point, what more could Xie Kai say? No matter how much resentment or power he had, he felt he couldn't use it, as if he had punched hard into a sponge, because Zheng Yue Ru's approach was flawless. If he were to keep making trouble, it would only make people think he was being unreasonable.

Thus, Xie Kai blushed and stammered.

Liu Zheng, watching this, also clicked his tongue in wonder.

Not to mention, ever since he started cooperating with Zheng Yue Ru's Zheng Family, he had never seen such a scene. Because he was truly too busy, he hadn't expected Zheng Yue Ru to be such a formidable person as well. But this was also normal; after all, such a large operation in Liangzhou was all managed by her alone. If she didn't have these skills, she would have gone bankrupt long ago...

"Hahahaha, to think General Zheng is actually in Jinghua today, unexpected, truly unexpected!"

Who would have thought that at this moment, another person would walk out from the private room on the second floor.

Everyone looked toward the sound.

"Top Scholar Liu!"

"It's him?"

The crowd exclaimed one after another.

Liu Zheng also couldn't help but look over.

This young man looked like the typical dashing scholar, with a fair-skinned, handsome, and boyish appearance. He held a folding fan in his hand, and when he saw Zheng Yue Ru, he masked the sharp glint in his eyes.

Zheng Yue Ru just smiled faintly and nodded.

"Top Scholar?"

Liu Zheng was also very curious.

It should be the first Top Scholar to pass the Imperial Examination since it was promoted throughout the entire Longyan.

"Young Master, this person is named Liu Yong, I hear he is very talented."

Jiang Xuan said.

Liu Yong?

Of course, he didn't think it was the Liu Yong from the history of his past life, but to be able to pass as Top Scholar, he must be a person of talent.

"I am untalented, the new Top Scholar Liu Yong, greetings to General Zheng! It just so happens that a few of my fellow students and I have drunk to our heart's content today; why not let this private room be given to the Prince of Wu, how about that?"

This Liu Yong also knew how to conduct himself.

Because among the many people present, after Zheng Yue Ru appeared, everyone wanted to strike up a conversation with her to build a good relationship, but they all suffered from having no opportunity, and facing a woman with such a powerful aura as Zheng Yue Ru, they naturally didn't dare. They hadn't expected a move like Liu Yong's; this made the people in the other private rooms regret it so much they beat their chests and stamped their feet.

"In that case, I thank Top Scholar Liu."

Zheng Yue Ru also held this Liu Yong in higher regard.

"Hahahaha, you're welcome, you're welcome!"

Liu Yong cupped his hands and then departed.

Thus, the matter was considered a happy ending for all.

The whole place became lively once again.

Xie Kai also had a private room, but after he went inside, his entire expression turned gloomy: "Bastards! They are all bastards!"

He had originally come to cause trouble today, but he hadn't expected to be deflected by Zheng Yue Ru with such ease.

"Crown Prince, Crown Prince..."

"Jinghua has been very unstable lately, it is best if we keep a low profile."

A flash of resentment crossed Xie Kai's eyes: "Low profile? My Wudi has fallen into this state precisely because of this woman! This woman, how can you expect me to keep a low profile!"

Just a moment ago, facing Zheng Yue Ru, he hadn't dared to let out a single fart.

But once inside, he became arrogant again.

"Crown Prince, wait a little longer, endure a little longer..."

"The Prince of Wu is currently uniting with the Feudatory Kings everywhere, planning to force the palace; things will unfold very soon, Crown Prince, you must endure at this time."

Several trusted followers whispered.

Xie Kai was so angry that his fingernails dug into his flesh.

"You two, are you still not planning to come and see me?"

A cold voice suddenly rang out behind Liu Zheng and Jiang Xuan.

This left the two of them looking at each other, unable to laugh or cry.

They did not believe for a second that Zheng Yue Ru had not noticed them there just now.

"Is General Zheng well?"

Liu Zheng sighed and also stood up.

Yet he did not even dare to meet Zheng Yue Ru's gaze.

When Zheng Yue Ru saw Liu Zheng's face—a face that was clearly no longer as fair as it had been when he first went to Yinzhou, a Liu Zheng who had already weathered many storms and matured a great deal—her nose stung, and tears almost spilled out.

In fact.

She had already seen Liu Zheng just now, but she had been holding it in.

Now, she could finally hold it in no longer...

She desperately wanted to go down, drag over this man she had been pining for so bitterly, and ask him why he was always causing trouble for her... always knowing only how to ask her for money! Always investing here or providing aid there! She really wanted to scold him and ask him if he truly thought Yintan City was a money-printing machine.

But...

When she saw Liu Zheng, whom she had not seen for nearly two years, the words she had prepared could no longer be spoken.

She hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, struggling to keep the tears from falling.

"This, this, this... what is this for..."

Liu Zheng was startled.

Jiang Xuan hurriedly blocked the two of them.

"It is not convenient to talk here, let's go inside!"

Liu Zheng sighed.

He was not unaware of Zheng Yue Ru's feelings for him; it was just that he was truly too busy...

"Chief Manager, this way..."

Manager Shen, who was by Zheng Yue Ru's side, hurriedly pointed out a path for the two, successfully blocking the gazes of others. Additionally, she also curiously stole glances at Liu Zheng...

This...

Is this Vice Minister Liu?

Is this the young master?

The group passed through several alleyways before arriving at a secluded pavilion in the backyard.

The door opened, and the group went inside.

Zheng Yue Ru could no longer hold back, and tears gushed out. She just looked at Liu Zheng deeply like that; she, who had possessed such an incredibly powerful aura just a moment ago, now had both tears and snot streaming down her face.
