Chapter 77 How Could He Bear to Do It?
After talking with Gu Yanxiao, Ding Yaping left without lingering for long.
Before leaving, I made an appointment with Vivian and the others to pick them up in three days.
Vivian was overjoyed, just like a child, and dragged Anthony around everywhere.
Unfortunately, before we could even begin, it got dark, so we had no choice but to wash up and go upstairs to rest.
The nights in the countryside are especially quiet.
It was only 8 p.m., and the entire village of Bakeshu was almost completely dark.
In her aunt's courtyard, after Gu Yanxiao finished pouring out the water for washing her feet, she lay down next to Su Xiangwan.
Su Xiangwan nestled against Gu Yanxiao's arm and looked up at him.
Gu Yanxiao met her pretty face, and when he saw her lips, which had become even more rosy and moist from being nourished by the spiritual spring in the space, his eyes trembled slightly, and his gaze became even more profound.
"What's wrong?" Su Xiangwan asked quickly when she noticed that his expression seemed a little strange.
With her movements, her breasts, fuller from pregnancy, pressed tightly against his body.
"Nothing?" Gu Yanxiao swallowed subconsciously, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.
I felt my heart pounding harder.
The bullet, which had been completely absorbed within his body and undetectable, now sent a jolt through him, causing a faint, persistent pain in his heart.
Su Xiangwan keenly sensed that something was wrong with him and quickly stood up to ask, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Cough cough, no, it's just..."
Gu Yanxiao stared intently at her, then casually grabbed her hand and probed towards a certain unspeakable place.
I sensed an astonishing change in Gu Yanxiao's area.
Su Xiangwan recoiled as if burned by a hot iron, quickly pulling her hand back: "You... cough cough, why don't you go out for a walk and calm down?"
Hearing his wife's words, Gu Yanxiao felt both annoyed and amused.
"Wife, you want me to go out like this?"
Su Xiangwan glanced at him and said, "Then what should we do? You can't possibly be trying to kick me out now!"
Gu Yanxiao chuckled and ruffled her hair, then withdrew his hand with satisfaction after messing up her cascading hair: "How could I dare? If I dared to kick you out, I'm afraid there would be no place for me in this house!" Most importantly, how could he bear to do that?
Su Xiangwan snorted coldly and snatched her hair back from his grasp.
Then he quickly put some distance between himself and him.
After waiting for a good ten minutes, I finally felt the desire surging in his eyes subside.
After suppressing all the thoughts that shouldn't be in his mind, Gu Yanxiao finally recounted his conversation with Ding Yaping earlier that day.
After listening quietly to his words, Su Xiangwan asked, "What do you think?"
Although Gu Yanxiao's surgery was successful in the original novel, that happened a year later.
Everything is different now.
However, if someone from the United States could perform the surgery on Gu Yanxiao, the surgical outcome and prognosis would undoubtedly be even better.
After all, it's a surgery involving the heart, and there's no room for error.
"You don't need to worry about the money."
Before Gu Yanxiao could speak, Su Xiangwan said, "I have plenty here."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yanxiao raised an eyebrow: "A lot?"
He suddenly became curious about exactly how much "a lot" Su Xiangwan meant.
This is the eldest daughter of Shanghai's richest family. For her to say the word "a lot," he was genuinely curious about the amount.
"It's enough... for our whole family to spend lavishly, to spend as much as we want, enough for several lifetimes..." Su Xiangwan said earnestly.
"So, the last thing you need to worry about is money."
Gu Yanxiao stared blankly at Su Xiangwan.
He never doubted the Su family's love for their daughter, and he also knew that when Su Xiangwan got married, her dowry filled several train carriages.
He even bought more than a dozen properties in Beijing.
These alone are enough to support what Su Xiangwan said, allowing her family to "spend lavishly, spend to their heart's content, and spend enough for several lifetimes."
But wasn't Su Xiangwan's dowry already confiscated by the Tail-Cutting Society?
Could it be that the Su family hid some of Su Xiangwan's assets, which were not confiscated by the tail-cutting committee?
Suddenly, Gu Yanxiao remembered the time when Su Xiangwan had secretly gone out of the compound.
It seems that this is the most likely possibility.
In that case, there's really no need to worry about money.
Thinking of this, he said, "If possible, I still want to give it a try..."
He's only in his early twenties, and he doesn't want to spend his whole life being someone who can't have any impulsive thoughts, intense emotional fluctuations, or run, jump, or play around freely.
Su Xiangwan nodded, wanting to give him a hug, but after thinking about his current situation, she still didn't dare to do it.
If someone unintentionally flirts with him, he'll be the one who suffers in the end.
Gu Yanxiao looked at Su Xiangwan, who was looking at him with concern in her eyes. Her cautious little appearance was really heartbreaking.
He chuckled softly, pulled her into his arms, and said without any lust, "Xiang Wan, I will succeed, won't I?"
Su Xiangwan nodded vigorously and said, "Of course, believe me, you will definitely succeed."
...
the next day.
After breakfast, Su Xiangwan took Vivian and Anthony for a walk in the village.
Most of the young people in the village have gone to work, leaving only some elderly people and children in the village to dry the wheat and thresh it.
Vivian looked at the elderly people and children working, her gaze gradually shifting from curiosity to pity.
"Su, don't these children go to school?"
Su Xiangwan looked at the children, who were around ten years old, shook her head, and said, "There is no school in the village. If they want to go to school, they have to go to the neighboring village."
The neighboring village is larger than Bakushu Village, which is why it has a primary school.
However, if these children want to go to school in the neighboring village, they not only need to pay tuition fees, but also transportation and meals, all of which need to be taken into account.
Therefore, families with poor financial conditions naturally choose not to send their children to school.
In their view, even if you study for a few years, in the end you will still return to the village, get married and have children, and work hard in the fields.
Whether or not one reads books seems to have become less important.
"No school?" Vivian was somewhat surprised, especially when she saw children around ten years old skillfully threshing wheat, and she fell silent.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, "But it can't go on like this, not studying!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiangwan said, "Things will get better in the future."
Their nation is a sleeping dragon, and once it awakens, it will surely display a power that will astound the world.
