"Her husband is dead?"
"Yes, yes..." Having been killed once again, Gu Chengyan wished he could just die now so he wouldn't have to be interrogated by his third uncle.
Not wanting to spoil the mood, Xie Zhaozhao said calmly, "Let's go!"
Gu Yuebai, growing up in that kind of environment in Nancheng, learned to use foul language and had a head full of flirtatious ideas about men and women.
