Tong Xingda took steps into the room of his third son and closed the door behind him.
His third son looked at him with confusion, "Father, what's the matter?"
"Prince Wei commanded us to have Xiaomai win over the retired emperor with her cooking skills, right?"
The third son nodded in agreement.
"So, what's the situation between you two now? Have you decided to be together for life?"
The third son answered calmly without a change in his expression, "Father, why are you asking this?"
"Of course, I have to ask. Right now, it's a matter of life and death for our family. If you are engaged to marry her, we can ask her to plead on our behalf when the time comes."
"No." Hearing the words, the third son shook his head immediately.
"Damn, you blockhead, go and seduce her right now, even better, take her virginity. That way, she would become completely devoted to you!"
The third son was silent.
He looked at Tong Xingda in disbelief, "Father, how could you come up with such a plan?"
