At this moment, Zheng Qiu tried her best to hold back her tears.
She felt like she had been bullied as a child, and her mother had hugged her and comforted her, telling her, "Heng'er, don't cry. If you cry, won't that just let those bad kids have their way? With your mother here, no one will dare to bully Heng'er. They are bad, so we won't play with them. We'll play by ourselves and live our own lives."
Seeing Zheng Qiu's tears being suppressed, Lu Zheng patted Gu Xin, then pointed outside. Gu Xin nodded, and Lu Zheng got up and went out, sitting between Fatty Wang and the man in white, to catch the carriage together.
Gu Xin felt her shoulders getting wet, and sighed softly. Maybe crying would make her feel better!
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Fatty Wang heard the sobbing, turned around and glanced at Lu Zheng, then asked in a low voice.
"Don't be curious, don't gossip!" Lu Zheng straightened his head and said, "Let's slow down a bit. We should be able to reach Qi'an Town this afternoon, rest there tonight, and continue our journey tomorrow morning. We should be able to return to the capital by tomorrow evening."
"Qian Town, I remember that town is so small. I usually don't want to rest there when I pass by. There are only two inns. It's not really the capital, nor is it really Taizhou. It feels like nobody cares about that place!" Fatty Wang complained.
"That town may be small, but it has everything. The inn is quite nice, and the landlady is especially beautiful!" The woman in white looked at Fatty Wang, raising an eyebrow with a smile.
"Really?" Fatty Wang's beady eyes widened, then he revealed a smile that only men could understand. "Hehehe, White Robe, I didn't expect that someone as serious as you would actually admire a beautiful woman."
"Who doesn't like to look at a beautiful woman? Even the Third Miss likes her very much." After saying that, the woman in white looked ahead again.
Lu Zheng rubbed his forehead.
Alright, everyone likes to see beautiful people or things, but Baiyi never showed any of that before. Now that she's been with Xinxin for several years, she expresses her thoughts without hesitation!
"Brother Lu, do you also like watching it?" Fatty Wang lowered his voice, afraid that Gu Xin in the carriage would hear, and added, "Don't worry, even if you admit it, I won't tell the Third Miss. It's a secret between us!"
"Hehe!" Lu Zheng chuckled helplessly. "I don't like looking at beautiful women with Fatty. I prefer to look at them with Xin Xin."
Fatty Wang: "..."
The man in white laughed.
Given the relationship between General Lu and those three girls, do you, Fatty Wang, really want to create some conflict for them?
If General Lu had been there that day, you might have witnessed the bizarre sight of him taking his fiancée to a brothel.
The three people outside were chatting quietly, while Zheng Qiu was crying softly inside the carriage.
Gu Xin could hear what was being said outside, but she couldn't care less. For some reason, hearing Zheng Qiu crying so softly made her feel particularly sorry for him, and she really wanted to go back to Beijing and get rid of the Zheng family.
However, she knew she couldn't do that. Zheng Qiu wanted to do these things on her own, and she couldn't make decisions on her own unless Zheng Qiu asked.
All she could do was try to help Zheng Qiu's brother get better and stop Zheng Qiu's younger brother from continuing his spoiled lifestyle.
Gu Xin wasn't the type of person who particularly liked to meddle in other people's business, but just like when she faced Cheng Huaiyu, she couldn't bring herself to be ruthless towards Zheng Qiu. In fact, it could be said that she hit it off with Zheng Qiu at first sight and they got along very well.
