em."These two tasks are actually very simple, for you it's just a piece of cake!""First, I have a close friend from university in Jiangzhou. She's always trying to set me up with her brother. She even..."My lord, I truly didn't know your identity before. If I had known, even if you gave me a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to be so reckless in front of you!"

It was Liao Xue and her cousin Xiao Meiqin who asked me to do this. I've brought both of them here for you to deal with!

Kong Jiangshan, ignoring the pain in his hand, stood up and pushed Liao Xue and Xiao Meiqin, who were still in shock, towards Shengzhu and Chen Ping'an.

"You scum, kneel down at once!" Kong Jiangshan kicked both Liao Xue and Xiao Meiqin on the bend of their knees. With a thud, both Liao Xue and Xiao Meiqin knelt before Chen Ping'an and the provincial governor.

"My lord, this has nothing to do with me! It's my cousin, Liao Xue, who wants to get revenge on you. I haven't done anything, so if you want to cause trouble, go find her!"

Xiao Meiqin panicked and pushed all the blame onto her cousin, Liao Xue, in order to get out of it.

A friend dies, but poverty survives. The governor's status is too great, for self-preservation she could only sacrifice her niece.

"Aunty, how...how could you do this"

Liao Xue was completely dumbfounded. She pointed at Xiao Meiqin with a look of disbelief and asked.

It was she who made Kong Shao discipline Lord and Chen Ping'an, but she did all this to vent her anger for her cousin Xiao Meiqin!

Now, Hsiao Mei-chin has placed all the responsibility on her shoulders, making her bear everything alone.

My aunt is too heartless and shameless!

Her heart instantly turned cold!

"Well, did I say something wrong"

"If it weren't for you letting Kong teach the Governor and his friends a lesson, would we be having this kind of conflict with him now"

Although Xiao Mei-qin felt ashamed, when she thought of the consequences of offending the provincial leader, she shamelessly retorted.

How much is your face worth!

Saving one's life is the most important thing.

“You······”

Even Liao Xue couldn't refute it.

"That's enough, you two are both wrong! Immediately kowtow to the provincial governor and apologize!"

Xiao Mei-chin's actions even made Kong Shao, the first to shirk responsibility, look down on her. He shouted at Liao Xue and Xiao Mei-chin who were arguing, scaring the two women.

"My Lord, I apologize. We were blind just now, we have eyes but cannot see..."

Under pressure from Kong Shao, Liao Xue and Xiao Meiqin reluctantly had to kowtow to the provincial governor to seek forgiveness.

Seeing this, Kong Shao looked longingly at the governor.

"Hmph, I hate people who shirk responsibility the most. If you dare to do it, why don't you dare to take responsibility"

The provincial governor snorted coldly and said.

His words frightened Kong Shao again into kneeling and begging for mercy, while Xiao Meiqin was too scared to even lift her head.

However, you didn't offend me today, you offended Mr. Chen. Apologizing to me is useless. If Mr. Chen forgives you, then this matter is over today. If he doesn't, you deal with it yourselves!

The governor turned his head and glanced at Chen Ping'an before addressing the three kneeling on the ground.

He immediately saw the purpose of Chen Ping'an bringing him here today and casually did a favor for Chen Ping'an.

And the three kneeling on the ground began to curse in their hearts when they heard the Governor's words.

Since apologizing to you didn't work, why didn't you say anything sooner You just kept quiet and let them kowtow so many times until they were terrified, only then did you speak up. Isn't this playing with them

But these words they only think in their hearts, they dare not say them out loud.

Even his face didn't dare to show any displeasure.

The three immediately turned to apologize to Chen Ping'an and Jiang Chuyin.

"Mr. Chen, I'm so sorry. We won't dare to do it again. Please forgive us this once. As long as you forgive us, we'll do anything you ask!" Xiao Meiqin, ever the opportunist, was the first to apologize to Chen Pingan. After finishing her apology, she immediately signaled to her husband, asking him to help smooth things over.

Kong Jiangshan also wanted to apologize to Chen Pingan immediately, but his father quietly pulled him back.

The city lord, Kong Wanjun, grabbed his son's hand and hurriedly motioned for Huang Shijin to clear everyone out. He didn't want word getting around that his son had to apologize to someone other than the governor.

Not until all the idle people in the Ginger family hall had been cleared out by Huang Shijin did the city lord signal his son to apologize to Chen Ping'an.
