Chapter 228 Su Mo Knows He’s Being Used

Su Mo stood there dumbfounded, stunned, her face full of disbelief, she looked at Chen Jingyan.

"Why?"

"You're nice to me, just for the sake of the gunpowder barrel? That's not what you said before."

Chen Jingyan's eyes were sharp. "If I wasn't good to you, would you have told me those things? I've already told you that I'm not a good person."

Su Mo looked at Chen Jingyan with tears in her eyes.

"It shouldn't be like this. How could you do this to me? I'm devoted to you, and you treat me like this. Chen Jingyan, forget it. I won't help you do this anymore."

She simply couldn't finish it.

As for the matter of gunpowder, she knew that Chen Jingyan was a general who was good at marching and fighting, so she deliberately went to Chen Jingyan and talked about it, hoping to attract Chen Jingyan's attention, and indeed she did attract his attention.

She just didn't expect Chen Jingyan to treat her like this.

Besides, as a time traveler, shouldn’t he have the aura of a time traveler?

Aren’t all the men she meets after traveling through time like her?

Su Mo really couldn't understand.

Chen Jingyan glanced over and said, "If you don't cooperate, then you won't have the chance to leave."

"Wuji, take the people down."

A man in black suddenly appeared from nowhere in front of everyone and took Su Mo away.

Su Mo resisted and kept struggling.

Wuji held Su Mo's hand and whispered, "Please don't struggle, Miss Su. Struggling will do you no good."

"Get out of here! Who the hell do you think you are? Why do you care about me?"

"Then please don't blame me, Miss Su."

Wuji raised his hand and slashed Su Mo on the back of the neck. Su Mo's eyes turned white and he fainted.

Wuji carried the person and left.

Chen Jingyan stood up and walked towards Yun Qiao.

He had already prepared an explanation, but seeing that Yun Qiao didn't ask anything, he calmly said to add a set of bowls and chopsticks for the Marquis.

"Mrs. Qiao, ..."

"Let's eat first, the children are hungry."

Yun Qiao looked at him with gentle eyes.

What Chen Jingyan did in this matter was indeed quite unethical.

But from his point of view, there doesn't seem to be any problem.

If Yun Qiao looks at it from an outsider's perspective, he is indeed taking advantage of people, but on the battlefield it is a fight for supremacy. If the person who knows how to make gunpowder cannon barrels cannot fall into his hands and be used by him, and if it falls into the hands of someone else, it will be a catastrophic disaster for him.

Chen Jingyan washed his hands and wiped them with a handkerchief.

Then he started to pick up the food.

He first picked up some meat for Yun Qiao. Yun Qiao frowned but didn't say anything.

Nian Nian reminded quietly, "Daddy, Mommy likes to eat vegetables."

"Okay, Daddy will remember it."

Chen Jingyan cast a gentle look at Nian Nian, "What do you like to eat, Nian Nian? Daddy will pick it up for you?"

"I can do it myself, thank you, Daddy."

Chen Jingyan picked up some stir-fried vegetables for Yun Qiao, and then looked at his two sons. He found that they were very naughty, but their eating manners were quite elegant, which showed that Yun Qiao had taught them well.

Soon, the children finished eating.

After the little guy had eaten and drunk his fill, he played for a while. Then it was time for a nap, and he became sleepy after playing for a short while.

Let the wet nurse take the child downstairs to rest.

Yun Qiao and Chen Jingyan went together.

"My Lord, just say what you want to say."

"You're waiting for me here?" Chen Jingyan smiled and poured Yun Qiao a cup of tea. Then he said, "I have nothing to do with Su Mo. She's attracted to me simply because of my power. If I were a beggar on the street, would she have tried every possible way to attract my attention?"

Yun Qiao was speechless.

Chen Jingyan stared at Yun Qiao and asked her, "If, I mean if, I were a beggar on the street, how could you even look at me?"

"Won't."

Yun Qiao answered simply, "First of all, the Marquis is the Marquis, and his status is completely different from that of a beggar. I was first his concubine, and then I changed my status and married him."

"I'm not a beggar's concubine..."

When the old lady hired her to enter the Marquis' Mansion, the nanny who came referred to her as the concubine.

But after entering the gate of the Marquis' Mansion and arriving at the Marquis's backyard, Yun Qiao realized that the old lady had deliberately said that she was hiring a concubine for the sake of the Marquis' Mansion's dignity. In fact, she was just looking for a few maids to warm Chen Jingyan's bed and sleep with him...
