Jiang Mingyi sensed something was wrong.
"Brother, why did Mother kick us out? She had seen Father... Jiang Yong'an before?"
She just couldn't bring herself to say it.
If Jiang Yong'an hadn't abandoned the four siblings for so many years, how could they have suffered so much in the past?
Jiang Mingyi slowly shook his head, trying to hear what was being said inside the room.
However, there was only boundless silence.
“Mother is a smart woman and won’t let herself suffer. I will take you to school.”
Now that things have come to this, all we can do is hope that Mom is smart enough not to be tricked by that man.
Main house.
After a long silence, Gu An'an finally spoke, "I don't want Mingyi and the others to know that I'm in danger."
The reason I became enemies with Bai Qiaoyin was because that woman was too crazy.
Fortunately, this madness should temporarily subside after Lin Zixing returns.
She didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she wanted the matter to be over and for the children not to know.
Jiang Yong'an frowned slightly. "A life-saving grace is greater than heaven. Does Madam Gu think that buying her life with ten taels of silver is too cheap?"
Gu An'an looked at the man, feeling inexplicably uneasy, but for a moment she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
"Then I'll repay you with my life?"
Jiang Yong'an had to admit that this young woman was very clever.
"That's not necessary. Mingyi and Zhuer like you very much. If they knew that you died to repay my kindness, they would hate me to the core in addition to being heartbroken."
Good to know.
So don't try to make any random or unreasonable requests.
"Then what do you want?"
Jiang Yong'an looked at the wary man and smiled faintly, "This is a life-saving favor."
Gu An'an naturally knew what the next sentence meant. "Then how about I repay you with my body and sleep with you, and then we'll be even?"
This move was unexpected. Gu An'an saw the smile on the man's face crack, as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
They're not from another time, otherwise they wouldn't be making such a fuss.
"It seems I was being petty. I hope I haven't damaged your reputation, my benefactor."
My benefactor.
The deliberately emphasized word made Jiang Yong'an frown, and his gaze towards Gu An'an instantly took on a different quality.
To cut off the fuel supply from under the cauldron.
She clearly knew what she wanted to say, so she simply said it, turning the tables and taking the initiative.
If they refuse to show any respect for the monks or the Buddha, then even for the sake of the children, I shouldn't make any more unreasonable demands.
clever.
Very intelligent.
A hint of appreciation appeared in Jiang Yong'an's eyes.
"How could that be? I have a notorious reputation, and besides, repaying a life-saving debt with one's body is only right and proper. So..."
Jiang Yong'an stood up and walked around to Gu An'an's side in a few steps. Looking at the person who suddenly became alert and restless, he felt a little teasing. "In this way, we are a legitimate couple. You are the most suitable person to raise Mingyi and the others. There is no need to worry about whether our relationship is legitimate or not, right?"
The man's breath fell on her earlobe, and stray hairs floated around her ear, making Gu An'an feel a tickle in her ears and heart.
She never imagined that she couldn't outsed this man's charm. Not only did she fail to scare him away, but she also ended up getting herself into a mess.
This is really not a good thing.
“Being your wife is no good thing, I’ve learned that from the past few years.” Gu An’an knew she couldn’t show weakness at this moment, so she turned her head to look at the man who was bending down beside her.
“I don’t want to repeat the same mistakes. As for raising Mingyi and the others, you are so smart and good-looking, my benefactor. Perhaps…” Gu An’an laughed, “It wouldn’t be difficult for you to find yourself another wife. Maybe I, the hen, won’t need to meddle in other people’s business.”
Threatening.
Gu An'an only talked about repaying the debt of gratitude; she would actually feel the pain of repaying it with her body.
It's just a matter of testing each other's bottom line.
Who can't?
The distance between their eyes and brows was so small that Jiang Yong'an could feel the warm breath on his face.
It's not surprising that someone who can say something like "I'll sleep with you" would do something so bold.
Jiang Yong'an could clearly see that the young woman had a small, rice-grain-sized mole under the corner of her left eye.
For some reason, Jiang Yong'an felt that this face had become somewhat beautiful.
"Madam Gu has quite the eloquence."
Gu An'an smiled and said, "You flatter me, my benefactor."
The two were quite evenly matched.
Looking into her bright, beautiful eyes, Jiang Yong'an finally gave in and took a step back.
This step also relieved Gu An'an somewhat.
"I'll have to trouble you with these children, Madam Gu."
Jiang Yong'an took out the silver ingot and placed it on the table, saying, "A life-saving grace needs no repayment."
He had already left before we even finished speaking.
The silver ingot felt very familiar to me; it was a ten-tael ingot.
I gave it to him myself before.
Gu An'an held the silver ingot in her hand and fell into deep thought.
Jiang Yong'an was not a fool; entrusting his child to his family was not a particularly stupid choice.
However, you can only know a person's face but not their heart; who would have thought that his family members were unreliable?
However, this man has been away from home for four years and rarely came home before. What has he been busy with outside?
Moreover, I saw Jiang Yong'an earlier, and he wasn't alone; it seemed he had two followers.
What about the other two?
This man is shrouded in mystery.
Gu An'an couldn't figure it out for a moment.
As for the verbal jokes, they were insignificant.
