Bab 836: The Child of Hua Family

Many people couldn't understand why Jing Jiu brought Hua Xi rather than Ran Handong with him since he decided to cooperate with the military.

Jing Jiu didn't respond to General Li's inquiry because he had no intention of explaining his decision. Explaining meant he had to lie through his teeth; he was too lazy to tell a fib.

Well, the fact was that he was very good at telling fibs, but his deception would be detected by the likes of General Li if he said too much.

It had proven that what he did was correct; General Li thought of another possibility, "The Hua family is different from other clans. They keep a low profile and don't meddle in the world's affairs so much, and very few people know their close relationship with the female priest."

Jing Jiu uttered "hmm" dishonestly.

General Li put the book back on the bookshelf before saying, "I heard that you're quite interested in that painting of sunflowers."
