Chapter 180 She wants to become the first female coroner in Beiyang
Yang Manman's face turned completely black.
The surprise I felt when I saw Shen Yanxi just now has disappeared.
She had met Shen Yanxi once before, introduced by Li Zheng, but Shen Yanxi's attitude was very cold at that time.
Li Zheng said that Shen Yanxi's personality was like that and he treated everyone the same, but he didn't expect that he would help Jiang Suining in this way.
Restraining her unhappiness, Yang Manman deliberately looked at Jiang Suining and Shen Yanxi with curiosity.
"What is the relationship between Master Shen and Miss Jiang? I didn't expect Master Shen to defend Miss Jiang so much."
Chu Jingyue frowned. Since she couldn't win the argument, she wanted to make up stories about the relationship between men and women for Sui Ning?
Just as she was about to speak, she saw the smile on Jiang Suining's lips. She immediately felt relieved and just waited for Jiang Suining to speak.
"Miss Yang, you are joking. Lord Shen was just speaking frankly just now. How can you defend him?"
Jiang Suining paused slightly, his expression showing the same curiosity as Yang Manman.
"Come to think of it, Master Li from the Prime Minister's Mansion was the one who really protected Miss Yang. I heard that Master Li was engaged. Seeing how intimate you two were, I think that fiancée must be you, Miss Yang. Congratulations."
Yang Manman's smile faded. "Li Zheng and I are brothers. What is your intention in talking nonsense, Miss Jiang?"
"Are they just brothers?" Jiang Suining glanced behind Yang Manman without leaving a trace and said with a smile, "It seems that I misunderstood. But I am just as curious as Miss Yang, so how can I have any ulterior motives? Besides, Miss Yang and Mr. Li really look like a perfect match."
"I think there's something wrong with Miss Jiang's eyes. There's no chance for Li Zheng and I." Yang Manman denied it directly, and then said with disdain, "I hate this most about women. When they see a man and a woman together, their minds are full of love and affection, even though we are just brothers."
"Ms. Yang, please calm down. Of course I believe what you say. It's just right that your brother is here." Jiang Suining gestured behind Yang Manman.
Yang Manman was stunned and turned around, only to find that Li Zheng was standing behind her at some point.
Thinking of the impossible words she had just said, Yang Manman felt guilty for a moment, but soon recovered and said with a cool smile: "Li Zheng, why are you here!"
Looking at Yang Manman's cheerful smile, Li Zheng suppressed his disappointment, walked up and said, "I went to the Duke's Mansion to look for you, and the servant said you had already left. When I passed by the teahouse just now, I saw the horse I gave you tied at the door, so I came in to take a look."
"So that's how it is." Yang Manman nodded, looking calm, "You came at the right time, quickly explain to Miss Jiang and Princess Chu that we are good brothers. Otherwise, if the misunderstanding gets to your fiancée's ears, I'm afraid she will cry and make trouble again, which will cause a lot of trouble."
Jiang Suining raised her eyebrows. There were not only her and Jingyue present, but also Shen Yanxi and Chu Changhe. However, Yang Manman only wanted Li Zheng to explain to the two of them... Was this acknowledging that only women would misunderstand and talk behind others' backs?
Li Zheng looked at Jiang Suining and Chu Jingyue, and before he could speak, Jiang Suining smiled.
"Mr. Li, there is no need to explain. Miss Yang has just said very firmly that there is absolutely no possibility between her and Mr. Li. I naturally believe Miss Yang."
Li Zheng frowned, a hint of disappointment appearing on his face again.
There was a hint of hidden resentment in Yang Manman's eyes. Although it was not obvious, Jiang Suining still saw it.
It seems that although Yang Manman doesn't want others to misunderstand the relationship between her and Li Zheng, she also doesn't want Li Zheng to feel that there is no hope at all.
After all...if Li Zheng had given up completely, he might not have been following Yang Manman around and protecting her like he is now.
Not wanting Li Zheng to continue thinking about it, Yang Manman changed the subject and asked, "Why did you go to the Duke's Mansion to see me?"
Li Zheng came back to his senses, "Oh, I almost forgot, I have arranged something at the Dali Temple. Aren't you interested in the autopsy? You can go and watch it directly."
Yang Manman instantly perked up, glanced at Jiang Suining and Chu Jingyue, and raised her voice and said, "I'm not just interested, I want to be the first female coroner in Beiyang Country in the future!"
"Female coroner?" Chu Jingyue sounded slightly surprised.
Yang Manman was delighted and immediately said, "My Lady, please do not look down on being a coroner. This is a profound subject. It is difficult to get started unless you are very talented. And I am not like you who are always afraid of this and that. If you see a corpse, you will scream. I must be like a man and have a career of my own. I will perform autopsies on those who died unjustly, find out the cause of death, and give them justice!"
Yang Manman spoke with such enthusiasm, and Li Zheng stood aside and watched her, with an uncontrollable admiration in his eyes.
To Li Zheng, the woman in front of him was always so unique and different from all the women he had met before.
"When did this princess ever say that I looked down on coroners? You are so eager to brag." Chu Jingyue said unhappily.
Yang Manman snorted, "You can say whatever you want, Princess. Anyway, I don't expect you girls to understand my ambitions."
Then he said again with a mocking tone.
"As for the autopsy, I will not invite Miss Jiang and Princess Chu to watch it, so that you won't be scared and unable to sleep, and then you will blame me. Li Zheng, let's go."
"Okay." Li Zheng responded.
At this time, he remembered to greet Shen Yanxi and Chu Changhe, and spoke with a smile.
"Lord Shen, Lord Chu, we will leave first. We can have tea together later when we have time."
"Why drink tea? Drink wine!" Yang Manman said decisively, "Master Shen, and Master Chu, tea is not strong enough. Let's drink wine together and chat while drinking. Just thinking about it will make me feel very happy."
She looked at Shen Yanxi and Chu Changhe expectantly.
However, Shen Yanxi directly refused, "I'm busy with official duties and don't have time."
Chu Changhe also picked up the teacup and shook his head, "Sorry, I can't drink much, I prefer tea."
Yang Manman was a little embarrassed for not being able to save face.
Li Zheng immediately tried to smooth things over, "It's okay, Manman, if you want to drink, I'll accompany you."
Yang Manman looked indifferent again and patted Li Zheng on the shoulder.
"Good brother, let's call a few more people, it will be more lively then."
Li Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll call whoever you say."
Yang Manman withdrew her hand with satisfaction, "Okay, let's go to the Dali Temple quickly, I can't wait any longer."
When turning around to leave, Yang Manman secretly glanced at Shen Yanxi and Chu Changhe again, with a determined look in her eyes!
