After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 178: Stay for a Meal



Chapter 178: Stay for a Meal

At this moment, Gan Luo had only one thought: this prime minister was truly a smiling tiger, which made Gan Luo quite admire him.

Just moments before, the prime minister had appeared to be working tirelessly, but now he suddenly adopted a look of remorse, which truly shocked Gan Luo.

"I only came here to catch up with my uncles. Now that our reunion is over, I will take my leave."

Gan Luo stood up, but to his surprise, the prime minister intended to have Gan Luo stay for lunch.

Through his mind-reading abilities, Gan Luo was able to know that the prime minister's intentions were not as he thought, but Gan Luo insisted on doing the opposite.

"Since the Prime Minister intends to invite me to have dinner here, then I will stay and have a meal with the Prime Minister."

At this moment, the prime minister had several big question marks above his head. Was this for real?

He originally thought Gan Luo wouldn't stay here, but he never expected that Gan Luo would stay in the end.

The prime minister was extremely frustrated at this moment. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have kept Gan Luo here for a meal.

Unfortunately, words spoken now are like water spilled; they cannot be taken back. In the end, the prime minister had no choice but to leave Gan Luo there.

In fact, the Prime Minister was particularly curious as to why Lou Yan hadn't informed him of Gan Luo's impending visit to the Prime Minister's residence. Normally, Gan Luo would announce his whereabouts, so why hadn't he? Could it be that Gan Luo had discovered Lou Yan's presence…

The Prime Minister decided to test the waters, and Gan Luo couldn't help but speak up. "Your Highness, are you satisfied with the beauty you took in before?"

"I am naturally satisfied, but does the Prime Minister also have interest in this beauty?"

The prime minister has already hastily denied it; how could he possibly be interested in men?

"Your Highness, what are you saying?"

Gan Luo then stopped talking and told the maid beside him.

"I'd like to have some pastries. Why don't you go to the kitchen and get me some?"

Just then, an official came looking for the prime minister. If Gan Luo remembered correctly, this official was the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. Why would the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review come here?

Even Gan Luo was puzzled. The moment the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review arrived and saw Gan Luo, he almost fell to the ground. The Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review didn't know why Gan Luo had come here.

"Your Highness is here, which is quite surprising to me."

"I have not seen my two uncles for a long time, so I came to see them. I don't know why you, Lord Shaoqing, have come here today."

The Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review casually found an excuse to have a small gathering with the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister naturally chimed in.

Gan Luo found their flustered appearance amusing, but he didn't say anything and tacitly agreed.

"I wonder if I may take a walk around the Prime Minister's residence? After all, sitting here all the time is getting a bit boring."

Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister told Gan Luo that this was all fine, so he stood up and intended to accompany Gan Luo for a walk. However, Gan Luo refused the Prime Minister and said that he and Lin Fengmian would go for a walk, and the Prime Minister could chat with the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review here for a while.

At this moment, Lin Fengmian turned his attention to Gan Luo. For a moment, he was a little confused about Gan Luo's intentions. Then, Lin Fengmian accompanied Gan Luo to the garden. Unexpectedly, the garden was full of blooming flowers and butterflies. A butterfly flew into Gan Luo's hand. Gan Luo wanted to touch it, but the butterfly flew away in an instant.

"Why didn't Your Highness allow the Prime Minister to stay with you earlier? I thought Your Highness would have the Prime Minister accompany you..."

"As far as I am concerned, I do not want a kind-hearted person to be hated by someone. Although this prime minister is my royal uncle, he has been working against me behind the scenes. I am not a fool, and I know this person very well."

Lin Fengmian was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected Gan Luo to know everything. He had thought Gan Luo was unaware, but it turned out Gan Luo knew everything. At this moment, Lin Fengmian was also interested in Gan Luo's next plans. Gan Luo turned to look at Lin Fengmian and said calmly, "Take it one step at a time. As the saying goes, if you're too eager for an answer, it will only backfire, won't it?"

Moreover, Gan Luo was particularly curious about what these two would talk about if they stayed together. If Gan Luo went back now, he would definitely run into them chatting. However, Gan Luo did not intend to go back. Instead, he planned to use his mind-reading ability later.

If you use mind reading, you can guess what other people are thinking.

This way, they could get the answer Gan Luo wanted directly, which was better than getting some false answer from him. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister and the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review sat down and started playing chess.

"Why is this princess..."

"Actually, I don't know why Your Highness came here. I was just about to go find you when Your Highness arrived. In the end, I had no choice but to entertain you here."

The two of them agreed to meet today.

The Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, having waited a long time for the Prime Minister's arrival, finally had no choice but to come to the Prime Minister's residence from his own. However, he did not expect to see Gan Luo upon entering.

"Although we don't know the princess's purpose in coming here, we two must be careful, lest we be......"

Unexpectedly, Gan Luo happened to be passing by right after he finished speaking, which startled the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review so much that he fell off his chair with a thud.

At this moment, the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was in a very sorry state. He looked at Gan Luo in disbelief, unable to understand why Gan Luo walked without making a sound.

More importantly, Gan Luo arrived here without making a sound.

That is why the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review spoke so recklessly.

"Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, how did you end up falling off that chair?"

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry too much. I simply lost my balance and fell off the chair."

Gan Luo found it all laughable to hear what this man was saying.

However, Gan Luo did not laugh. Instead, he showed special concern for the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
