Lan Zheng: "...I'll take out a large sum of cash and give it to her?"
Xu Susu: “…”
"I'll send her a bouquet of flowers tomorrow to test the waters and see if she likes it. If she does, I'll send her flowers every day, just for show. I won't fall in love with her anyway, just to show off. By the way, what do you like?"
Xu Susu said cautiously, "I don't have anything I particularly like, nor do I particularly dislike anything."
Lan Zheng's eyes were fixed on her silver mask, imagining her face underneath it.
"Everyone has something they particularly like. I guess my benefactor doesn't want to tell me the truth."
“I don’t really have anything I particularly like.”
Lan Zheng didn't ask any further questions, knowing that she was wary of him.
He stood up and went to get some food for Susu.
He also packed two large bags and said to Xu Susu, "These two bags are for my benefactor to take back and eat."
"I can just eat here. I don't need to take it away. It's not convenient for me to move around."
She was afraid he might have hidden a tracker in the snacks.
"How did you get in this time?"
Fengchen Hotel is so high and in a busy city, she shouldn't dare to climb up the wall blatantly, right?
"I walked in through the hotel's main entrance."
Lan Zheng choked.
I realized that she must have put on the mask after coming in.
I wonder if I can find her by checking the hotel’s surveillance later?
What Lan Zheng can think of, Xu Susu can also think of.
She came tonight with a bag on her back, which contained a set of clothes for her to change into. Now she hid the bag before coming to see Lan Zheng.
When she leaves later, she will change her clothes and won't go out in night clothes.
In this way, even if Lan Zheng could see through the surveillance, he would not know which customer was her.
"Second Miss Xu's sister won't let her marry far away. Young Master Lan, there's no need to put yourself in such a difficult position. You're in City A now, and your grandmother and sister aren't here. No one can control you."
Lan Zheng thought to himself that she came here specially to deliver intelligence, which was secondary. She was mainly concerned about the fact that he came to pursue his wife.
Now, the topic is brought back to Xu Susu.
She might really be Xu Susu.
Lan Zheng felt somewhat certain in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He said, "Her sister doesn't agree with her marrying far away, which is exactly what I want. When the time comes, my grandmother will come and propose marriage on her own initiative. If she is rejected, it will have nothing to do with me."
"Actually, I understand Mr. Xu very well. The two sisters have depended on each other for many years, and the younger sister is so weak, like a flower in a greenhouse. She married far away and was bullied by her husband's family, and was even beaten to death, and Mr. Xu didn't know about it."
"If my husband's family reports an emergency illness and cremates the body quickly, and Mr. Xu arrives to find only a jar of ashes, what can he do? It's better for her to stay by his side. I can feel more at ease. In your City A, Mr. Xu is still capable enough to protect my sister for the rest of her life."
Xu Chu is also Qingqing's sister-in-law. Qingqing is the eldest lady of the Jun family. There is a relationship between them. Now that Xu Susu is married, her in-laws dare not bully her.
After hearing Lan Zheng's words, Xu Susu said: "...We live in a society ruled by law now, so why would there still be such a cruel in-law family?"
"Don't you usually check the news? It's not that there isn't, it's just that we don't know about it. In this vast world, everything happens, it's just not made public. If nothing else, just look at what happened to my mom and you'll understand."
His maternal uncle's family had no one but his cousin, and no one could support his mother. His mother was driven mad, so who could stand up for her? His cousin was just a child, and he still needed his father to take care of him.
How could I have the ability and capacity to stand up for my aunt?
His mother's family is from this city, and she didn't marry far away.
Not to mention his mother, let’s just talk about his third aunt. His third uncle has so many mistresses outside, and now he treats his third aunt as nothing. He always wants to divorce and marry new people. The Ren family has not said a word. Isn’t it because the Lan family is so powerful?
For the sake of their own interests, the Ren family is unwilling to break up with their in-laws. Who else can his third aunt rely on except to vent her anger?
Even though Third Aunt has a son and a daughter, the Lan Bin brothers are the young masters of the Lan family after all, and their father treats them well, so the brothers are in a dilemma.
Of course, Lan Zheng did not sympathize with Third Aunt.
Aunt San's current fate was caused by him. He was venting his anger for his mother.
He still remembered how his third aunt bullied his crazy mother. If he had the chance, he would definitely take revenge.
Xu Susu eats snacks.
She ate while saying, "You're right. I've helped many wealthy women track and investigate their husbands' infidelity, and I know a lot about the dark side. Men, once they no longer love you, there's really no need to try to win them back. Divorce quickly to save your life."
"Divorce isn't a big deal. Maybe I can remarry and marry someone better. Even if I don't remarry, I can still live a happy life on my own."
"However, we do have a family in City A that is very popular with women. It's your sister's husband's family. Your sister is a blessed person to be able to marry into the Jun family. The Jun family is well-known for its good family traditions, and their ancestral precepts prohibit divorce."
"So you must think carefully before getting married. Once you decide, it's for life."
Lan Zheng asked her tentatively: "Do you want to marry into the Jun family?"
“Ahem—”
Xu Susu choked on the snacks and started coughing.
Lan Zheng hurriedly stood up and sat next to her, patting her on the back and saying to her, "Eat slowly, I'm not trying to steal it from you."
After recovering from her shock, Xu Susu slapped him on the shoulder and said, "You're talking nonsense. You made me choke. You almost choked me to death."
Lan Zheng laughed, "You admire the men of the Jun family so much, I thought you wanted to marry into the Jun family."
"The men of the Jun family are good, but they don't like me. If any of them even glance at me, I'll pester them into marrying me. Speaking of the men of the Jun family, I get a headache. That Fourth Young Master Jun, who got slept with someone without knowing why, even came to me and asked me to help him check out that woman."
"Master Lan, we're so familiar with each other now. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. The woman who slept with Fourth Young Master Jun is very powerful. I was just curious and wanted to investigate. As a result, my men were put in sacks and beaten up. I suffered a loss in silence."
Since she started working in this line of work, she has made friends with many people from all walks of life. She is considered a very powerful person in City A and has never suffered such a big loss.
It is true that there are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people.
Lan Zheng was quite surprised. "Your men have all been bagged. That's quite impressive. City A really is full of hidden talents."
"That's right."
When she first met her master, she was shocked by his abilities. She never expected that there were such masters in this world. Of course, masters are very rare. They are no different from ordinary people in their daily lives. They don't take the initiative to reveal their identities, and believe that no one will discover them.
The master chose her not only because of fate, but also because he saw that her body was flexible and suitable for practicing martial arts, and he also saw through her nature of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
