Chapter 256: The time of competition

"Father met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the palace." Shen Yueshan changed the subject, and hesitated for a long time before asking in a low voice, "Yoyo, tell father, you are not attracted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's appearance."

Xiao Huayong had met Shen Yueshan when he was very young, and had the impression that he was quite handsome. But when he saw him today, especially among all the princes who had their own merits, he actually stood out with his appearance.

"If I were a good person, I would despise you and my brother." Shen Xihe said unhappily.

Shen Yueshan:

The King of the Northwest suddenly became impatient. What was wrong with him? He and his son were real men. What was the difference between these skinny boys in the imperial capital who looked like handsome men and girls who put on makeup

"You...you...you actually said I...I'm ugly?" Shen Yueshan was so angry that his tongue was tied.

"Dad, do you think you are handsome?" Shen Xihe asked back.

"Hoo, hoo!" Shen Yueshan let out two long breaths with his hands on his waist before he recovered his breath. "Father, you are handsome and a real man. Why do you need beauty? I was really crazy to send you to the capital. The young men in this imperial capital are all greasy and powdered. They will fall down at the slightest breeze. The crown prince is even more fragile, with thin arms and legs. I am afraid that if I hit him with a palm, I will commit the crime of regicide!"

"Father, you are strong and powerful, and he is also skilled in martial arts." Shen Xihe said something fair.

This was a big deal, and it ignited the gunpowder in Shen Yueshan's mind: "You... you are now... protecting him!"

If he protects her now, how will she remember him as her father after she marries him

Shen Yueshan was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly, as if he was going to faint the next moment. Shen Xihe was really amused and pulled him to sit down and calmed him down: "Okay, okay, I said something wrong. I didn't fancy his appearance. I have already explained all the reasons to my brother, and my brother will definitely convey it to my father."

"Yo Yo, do you know what path you have chosen?" Shen Yueshan also became serious when talking about business.

"Father, I have chosen a path that I will not regret." Shen Xihe's eyes were firm.

Maybe it is not the best, maybe it is not the smoothest, but I firmly believe that I will never regret it.

All of Shen Yueshan's words were blocked. He somewhat understood the helpless and anxious mood of his son when he recounted the story to him. He didn't like to use his youth and ignorance to hinder his children's decision. Now that she could say that she had no regrets, Shen Yueshan couldn't utter any words of persuasion.

"Yoyo, Dad believes in you." This is all Shen Yueshan could do to comfort her.

If he insists on opposing it, he may be able to change her mind, but he cannot guarantee that his choice is the best. If she is unhappy in the future, he will blame himself for the rest of his life.

If she makes this decision now, even if she is unhappy in the future, her father and brother will always open their arms to protect her so that she won't feel like she has nothing.

"Dad is the best." Shen Xihe smiled.

Shen Yueshan snorted twice: "Father believes in you, but not him. Father will keep an eye on you these few days."

Shen Xihe held back her laughter and remained silent. With her father's critical eyes, no matter how good Xiao Huayong was, he could always find fault with him.

But it doesn't matter. She doesn't depend on Xiao Huayong for her life. If Xiao Huayong is good, it's just icing on the cake for her. If he is not good, she doesn't have any opinion.
