After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 156: Didn't Expect Her To Be So Ambitious

Xiao Yuanshi pretended that nothing had happened and returned to the private room, although he didn't expect that his colleagues had already left.

For some reason, he had an unspeakable bad feeling in his heart.

He did not stay any longer and directly returned to the general's residence.

Just as he sat down, Ge Chunru came in with reddened eyes.

Xiao Yuanshi was extremely upset to see her like this.

He could not help but frown and ask, "What's wrong with you this time?"

Especially now that he saw her, he could not help but think of how his eyes were playing tricks on him previously.

He thought that the emperor's uncle was her and felt a little disgusted.

Ge Chunru also saw that Xiao Yuanshi's mood was not right, so she changed what she was about to say. "It's just that I feel uncomfortable to see my younger brother like this."

Xiao Yuanshi took a deep breath. "Things have already gone that way. No point crying over spilled milk.

"It's better for you to take care of the child in your belly first.

"When he recovers, I'll think of a way to arrange a posting for him."

With his broken leg, it was impossible for him to get a good posting.

Ge Chunru felt a stabbing pain in her heart, but she could only nod. "Then I'll have to trouble you then, general."

She asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Xiao Yuanshi said, "I ran into some troubles with the Ministry of War."

He had just joined the Ministry of War as an assistant minister not long ago which gave him real authority.

Although a senior general held a higher rank than an assistant minister, after he handed over his military power in the future, it would only be a part-time job.

Therefore, he fought hard to become an assistant minister in the Ministry of War.

Ge Chunru did not ask further when she heard what he said.

She knew that capable men did not like women to interfere with their official affairs.

Therefore, she asked her servant girl to bring him the freshly prepared soup. "General, thank you for your hard work. This is the chicken soup that I specially ordered the cook to prepare. This bowl is yours."

Xiao Yuanshi took the chicken soup and lost his appetite even more when he saw the oil in the bowl.

"I drank too much wine just now. I'll drink it later." He placed the bowl on the table.

Seeing that she was about to speak, he continued, "I'll go to the study table to do work. Go back to your room to rest first."

Ge Chunru could only swallow down her question of asking Xiao Yuanshi if he had found out who caused her brother to suffer. "Then, go ahead first, general."

After Xiao Yuanshi went to the study room, she brought another pot of chicken soup to Ge Chunyi's courtyard.

When she pushed the door open, she saw her younger sister's eyes reddened as she comforted her irascible younger brother.

Ge Chunyi stood up and gracefully bowed. "Elder sister, you're here!"

Seeing that her younger sister was looking more like a young lady from an aristocratic family with a beautiful and dignified appearance, Ge Chunru's eyes revealed some relief. "I came to see Chunyi."
