Calmly looking at Chu Mo, Liu He's face still carried a faint, kindly smile as he continued, "What my virtuous brother Chu Mo just mentioned, I somewhat disagree with."
As soon as these words were spoken, almost everyone in the room was stunned. They looked at Liu He with shocked expressions, thinking to themselves: What does this mean? Disagree? Could it be... you really want this boy, who looks like a monster, to get engaged to the Ninth Princess?
Even the Ninth Princess, Xia Zhenzhen, on the other side, looked at Liu He with a hint of doubt in her eyes. However, the astute Xia Zhenzhen immediately figured out Liu He's little scheme.
Sure enough, Liu He looked at Chu Mo and said sincerely, "Man and woman both come of age for marriage, it's human nature under Heaven and Earth; as your brother, I feel that you shouldn't refuse."
Chu Mo looked at Liu He with a calm gaze, but the expression on his face softened slightly. No matter what, these words at least sounded human enough.
