Chapter Seventy-One: Only Talking About Buying and Selling



Mo Guigu

With her hands and feet shackled, Gu Qianluo was led by a group of servants to a secluded, ethereal natural hot spring.

The sound of iron boots clattering came from behind her. Gu Qianlu raised an eyebrow, turned her gaze to the person who had come, and looked at him with a cold expression.

Mo Gui raised his eyebrows slightly, a sly smile playing on his lips, and asked in a deep voice,

"What? Miss Gu doesn't want to stay?"

“Mo Gui, do you know that I am a married woman? According to the laws of the Great Yue Kingdom, forcibly taking a woman is a serious crime.”

I advise you to be sensible and treat me politely.

Otherwise, once the Marquis's men find this place, I can't guarantee you'll be tortured!

"What a joke! Miss Gu, do you think you can scare this gang leader with such words?"

Mo Gui Valley is hidden deep in the mountains, concealed from the world, and no one would ever find it.

As for your husband, hah, he's nothing but a scapegoat.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qianlu felt a surge of anger and, bracing herself against the heavy iron chains, struck Mo Gui's chest.

"You're talking nonsense! Chen Jinheng is a hero, not some scapegoat!"

I'm warning you, watch your mouth!

As the heavy iron chains pounded against his body, Mo Gui's eyebrows furrowed slightly, his expression dark and brooding as his cold gaze fell upon Gu Qianluo's flushed face.

He brazenly swept his hand over her delicate and beautiful features, unable to resist reaching out to caress the tip of her nose, then close to her ear, and said coldly,

"For the rest of your life, you will stay obediently by my side."

What Chen Jinheng can give you, this gang leader can also give you!

Without waiting for her reply, Mo Gui suddenly lifted her up in mid-air.

Gu Qianlu was startled. Her limbs were bound by iron chains, and she trembled violently as she cursed at Mo Gui.

"Mo Gui! You're not a man! What kind of man are you, tying up your grandma like that?"

"If you're so capable, unlock it for me! Let's have a contest!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Gui's eyes softened, revealing a seductive smile, and he countered with a question.

"A contest? Heh, Miss Gu, do you think I'm a fool?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Gui's eyes darkened, and he threw her into the hot spring pool.

Before Gu Qianlu could react, warm spring water rushed into her throat and nose. Just as she was about to sink to the bottom of the pool, a pair of large hands pulled her out of the water.

Gu Qianlu gasped for air in frustration, cursing Mo Gui for not being a man.

Mo Gui's eyes were cold as he turned to the servants behind him and sternly ordered, "Give Miss Gu a bath and bring her over shortly!"

At his command, the servants filed in and began to get to work.

Watching Mo Gui's departing figure, Gu Qianluo's eyes darkened, and anger surged within her. She silently vowed...

"Mo Gui! You better not give me any leverage, or you'll be in big trouble! I'm notoriously vengeful!"

"Miss Gu! Let me help you change your clothes!"

"This servant advises you to obediently listen to Chief Mo, otherwise you'll end up like his previous women, thrown into an iron cage to be hunted by wild beasts."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qianlu was startled, and fear appeared in her eyes.

It seems she needs to find a way to escape from here as soon as possible.

A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. It's been three days since she left the Marquis's mansion, and she finally has a chance to take a hot bath. How could she let it go?

Lost in thought, she carefully examined her current state, her limbs bound. She disliked being manipulated, yet she couldn't help but express her gratitude.

"Then I'll have to trouble you!"

Seeing that she had compromised, the servants quickly began to help her undress and bathe, fearing that she would change her mind again and delay the appointed time.

After all, the leader of the Mogu Gang is a tyrant. If we are negligent, we might lose our lives!

"I've heard that the Valley Master of Mo Gui Valley has countless beauties, each with stunning looks and unparalleled charm. Is that true?"

Since she had nothing better to do, she took advantage of her bath to inquire about Mo Gui's romantic history with the maids.

The maids didn't shy away from it, after all, men like to boast about having countless beauties in their possession.

The more they talk about this, the happier Mo Gui will probably be.

A slightly older maid with gentle features slowly spoke,

"Miss Gu is really well-informed! Our Chief Mo not only loves money, but also loves beautiful women. He has ten wives and concubines."

Although Chief Mo doted on his wives and concubines, some of his concubines were restless and wanted more than just titles.

The leader of the Mo Gang disliked cunning people, so he ordered those beautiful women who harbored ulterior motives to be thrown into the iron jail!

"Yes! Miss Gu, you mustn't anger Chief Mo, that iron prison is no good place!"

Another maid, with a slightly youthful face and a soft voice, added.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes slightly, silently swallowed, and asked curiously,

"What exactly is that iron prison?"

Gu Qianlu asked in surprise, but the maids looked at each other and fell silent in tacit agreement.

Suddenly, an older woman rushed in through the entrance to the hot spring, pointing sternly at the maidservants in the pool.

"My master sent me to ask if Miss Gu is ready."

"What are you all dawdling about? Aren't you going to hurry up and help Miss Gu change her clothes? Don't you want to eat dinner tonight?"

Gu Qianlu looked up at the newcomer, glancing at the maids beside her. She saw that their eyes were filled with fear as they hurriedly helped her change into clean clothes and quickly arranged her makeup and jewelry.

"I'm just a passerby, you don't need to make such a big fuss."

"Miss Gu, you're joking. Chief Mo has already sent us to give you a bath. Don't you understand what Chief Mo means?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo's heart sank, and a bad feeling flashed through her mind.

She forced a faint smile and explained, "Oh dear, you've misunderstood! I have business to discuss with your Chief Mo."
