Just like the last time with Su Qiuyu's issue, what could he have done? Beat her up, scold her? But he had never hit a woman before.
Or, like those women in the deep quarters dealing with a vixen, should he have tied her up and sent her off to be ruined by men?
That was even more impossible. Not to mention that Su Qiuyu had been his playmate since childhood, even if they were not friends, things had not escalated to such a point. Moreover, Su Qiuyu's older brother was one of his best friends; how could he possibly lay a hand on her?
Lin Yuan was unaware of Xia Zheng's thoughts about these matters, but there was still something she wanted Xia Zheng to know.
"Xia Zheng, just like you told me, you take care of those dirty struggles for the throne in court, and I'll just happily make money. But, since it's about being happy, of course, I should eliminate a few bugs blocking the way, right? After all, I am free now, and wouldn't it be nice to have someone come up and entertain me?"
