Chapter 123
Xue Shun didn't know what he was saying. The more he spoke, the more he wanted to cry. At the end, his shoulders drooped, and he sighed in despair and lay down. "Forget it, go to sleep, go to sleep. Just treat me as talking nonsense. Let's think of a way. There will definitely be a way."
Xue Shun grabbed the quilt and covered his head with it, feeling almost choked by the thought of money.
He didn't want Shen Jiao to do anything bad, and wanted to take her away from all this immediately.
But where can they escape to?
Even if you have some savings, it is not enough to escape for a lifetime.
If you really become a slave or do menial labor, or beg for food, you are just putting your life in the hands of others.
The third brother said he would give him a job, but when he asked about it two days ago, he was told that there was no rush and that he was busy these days, so he should wait a few more days.
The second brother did send someone to give him some money, but Xue Shun knew that he was not rich either, so how could he take it unless it was absolutely necessary?
Xue Shun was so worried that he couldn't sleep, and he only felt more at ease when he was next to Shen Jiao.
But she still wanted to drive him away. How could one not feel uncomfortable?
Xue Shun lay there for a while in a depressed mood and was about to get up and leave.
Shen Jiao lifted the quilt and crawled in, then pushed him down again and snuggled into his arms warmly.
"What? You're not going to chase me away?"
Xue Shun asked while holding her awkwardly.
Shen Jiao pressed closer, her legs crossed, without answering, and whispered, "I'd better go to sleep in the master's room tomorrow. The bed there is bigger."
Xue Shun was so happy that it felt like little flowers were blooming in his heart.
"real?"
"why not."
Xue Shun gently kissed Shen Jiao's forehead: "You promised me, I won't leave even if you regret it tomorrow."
There was a cry in his voice.
Shen Jiao raised her hand and wiped his face carelessly: "Why do you always cry, young master?"
"Do you find me annoying?"
"without."
"Then I can cry if I want to."
Xue Shun is sometimes very childish, as if he has not grown up.
Shen Jiao thought, maybe it was because he had never been a child, so he had no way to grow up.
In this matter, Shen Jiao was luckier than him.
Xue Shun shed tears for a while, sniffed and said, "We will live a very good life in the future."
"That's natural."
"Kill Wei Qian."
“…”
"Sir, don't you regret it?" Shen Jiao asked in surprise.
Xue Shun said: "I don't regret it. Teach me what to do. Let's do it together."
Xue Shun's voice was trembling.
If he hadn't met me, perhaps he could have lived a peaceful life as a cowardly but stable young man.
What a pity, there is no such thing as if.
Shen Jiao asked him, "Sir, do you have a chance to go to Jiangnan Road?"
"I didn't even have the chance to play with the banker."
Mr. Song wished he would die studying at his desk.
"Then you have to think of a solution, sir. Otherwise... we'll just have to make a deal with the ghost messenger sent by the King of Hell to take our lives."
The evil cult is called Yama Palace, and its leader calls himself the King of Hell.
The person he sent was naturally a ghost messenger who came to take his life.
Xue Shun knew what Shen Jiao meant and said seriously, "I'll find a way. Don't contact them unless it's absolutely necessary."
"This servant knows, it's too late to hide from them."
Shen Jiao had been recuperating for a long time and had not yet sent Wei Qian. The Five Guests of Huangmei must have realized that they had been fooled. Now she dared not even leave the gate of Tongcai Villa for fear of losing her life. She just hoped that they would think she was dead and would not dare to contact them actively. But in order to pretend to be a good person, she still sighed twice.
"My poor second brother, I'm afraid he has died at the hands of the demon sect."
Xue Shun: ...
He asked cautiously, "Are you and him really that close?"
"He is my senior brother. We were taught by the same master. He is like my own brother."
"How is your relationship with your brother?"
"This servant has no brother."
When Shen Jiao said this, Xue Shun knew what was going on.
"Should I ask Qiongzhi to buy a plot of land and build a cenotaph for him?"
"Why bother spending that money? He's like my own brother. He knows my sister is short of money, so why would he care about those things?"
Shen Jiao's true colors are revealed.
Xue Shun also didn't want to spend money: "Forget it, let's go to sleep."
"Well, sir, would you mind letting go? We can sleep on the same pillow."
"don't want."
Xue Shun tightened his arms.
Shen Jiao: ...
Okay, let’s do it this way. It’s not her arm that’s numb anyway.
It rained at night.
The crackling sound of rain hitting the window helps me sleep better.
The room was a little chilly and cold, like an underground tomb, so the two of them moved a little closer, drawing warmth from each other.
I slept even better and almost missed class.
Shen Jiao pushed him twice in a daze: "Sir, it's time to go."
Xue Shun hadn't slept enough yet: "I don't want to get up. Mr. Song is so unkind."
"He is also doing this for your own good, go quickly."
Shen Jiao felt completely sleepy after talking to him for a few more words, and she immediately wrapped herself in the quilt and rolled to the innermost part.
Xue Shun suddenly felt cold and his eyes opened immediately.
"You are cruel enough."
He muttered something under his breath and moved closer to wake Shen Jiao up, but looking at her rosy face from sleeping, Xue Shun didn't do anything. He just gritted his teeth and stuffed a pillow under her head, then patted her fiercely.
"Go to sleep, I'm leaving."
Even these words were said in a very low voice with a vicious tone.
Shen Jiao heard it anyway. She didn't want to pay attention to him, but she felt it was bad to ignore him, so she had to open her mouth reluctantly and said, "Hey, go away, it's so noisy, it's annoying."
Xue Shun knew that she found him annoying.
Even if he was bothered, he still had to say it. Xue Shun put on his clothes and went out to tell Liangua and the others, "It's uncomfortable to sleep here. You should move your things back today, and move Shen Jiao's things over as well."
Liangua and the others knew that this day would come sooner or later.
So, she mustered up the courage to ask, "Master, is she moving back in? If not, can Yuge'er and I move into her room? Qiongzhi can have her own room, and everyone will have more space."
Xue Shun had no objection, but he couldn't say for sure: "You can ask Shen Jiao, if she agrees, it's fine."
That's probably stable.
Liangua laughed and said, "The young master has already taken her in as his concubine, so why would she move back in?"
"What do you mean by 'woman in the room'? That's such a harsh word," Xue Shun said unhappily. "You should just call her sister first. When I marry her, you can call her Madam."
Is he serious?
It seemed to be true. Liangua and Yuge'er looked at each other, but decided not to burst his dream.
Instead, he responded cheerfully, "Yes."
Why should they say anything? As long as these two people are still in high spirits, they will have a room to stay in.
Qiongzhi looked anxious and conflicted, but she still tried to dissuade him, "Sir, this isn't appropriate. You and...my sister are both nameless and have no status, so what's the point of this?"
Xue Shun glanced at her:
"I know this doesn't sound good, but don't worry, I will definitely give her an explanation."
Xue Shun knew that the two of them had a good relationship, so he spoke very seriously.
Qiongzhi really felt like a future mother-in-law.
She hesitated, she was hesitant, her eyes were filled with tears, she...
She said, "Sir, you must treat her well. As long as you two are well, I will be relieved."
