"I heard an interesting story..."
The person who spoke had a lewd smile on his face, which made the others eager to speak and asked, "Hurry up and tell me!"
"Could it be the incident involving Marquis Xuanping..." someone in the know asked speculatively.
"Isn't the Marquis of Xuanping almost dead? What's going on?"
Having whetted everyone's appetite, the first person to speak slowly said, "Harassment of a child!"
"That guy, that body? Are you kidding me?"
"Don't believe it? Someone saw with their own eyes the carriage of the Marquis Xuanping's mansion carrying a little girl of eight or nine years old from Wangyue Tower back to the Marquis Xuanping's mansion. That person was also sitting in the carriage at the time."
The people gathered together lost interest and looked inexplicably fearful. "If this gets out, be careful with your tongue..."
After returning to Wangyue Tower and connecting Yan Qun and Lu Hui, Jiang Huaixu saw Yan Qun's enthusiasm for Lu Hui, so he stopped paying attention to the conversation between the two and discussed the matter of setting sail with Li Qiaoer.
Downstairs, Lu Hui felt uncomfortable looking at Yan Qun's smiling face. He only knew that the owner of Wangyue Tower was surnamed Yan, but he had never met him. Now that he saw him, he was so friendly that it was really unbelievable.
After exchanging pleasantries, Yan Qun smiled and said, "Since Miss Jiang calls me uncle, there are some things she is too shy to say, so it would be better for me to say them. Master Lu, do you know what I used to do?"
Lu Hui hurriedly shook his head, "I don't know."
Yan Qun said calmly, "I am not talented. I used to be a captain and a member of the general's personal guard. Although I am only an old man now, I can still teach a boy a lesson. Mr. Lu, please don't treat Miss Jiang as someone without support and repay her with hatred. Otherwise, I will not forgive you in Wangyue Tower."
Lu Hui's face flushed crimson, and he felt as if needles were pricking him on the stool, making him fidget uncomfortably. He quickly stood up, bowed deeply, and said, "I will definitely live up to Miss Jiang's trust."
At the same time, on the third floor of Wangyue Tower, an old man stood in front of Chen Su.
The old man had gray hair and a tense face that revealed an aura of majesty without anger. At this moment, his turbid eyes were fixed on Shen Su's face, trying to find the answer he wanted from the face that was mostly covered, but to no avail.
"Why don't you ask your uncle to sit down and have some tea?"
Chen Su changed his gentle demeanor in front of Jiang Huaixu, and lazily lay on the small couch. When he looked up at the old man, a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
"Seeing that I am not dead, uncle is upset and came to see me?"
A trace of anger appeared on Jiang Yan's face, but it quickly disappeared. "I came here to ask you who that little girl who went to the Marquis' Mansion with you was. Do you know what people are saying about you now? You're molesting children! You want to bring shame to my Jiang family...ah——"
The shouting stopped abruptly.
Chen Su's eyes were as cold and terrifying as a Shura who had just walked out of hell. He looked at Jiang Yan as if he was looking at a skeleton.
He stepped heavily on Jiang Yan's left wrist, as if he was playing with something fun, crushing it bit by bit, watching the man on the ground struggling silently because of something stuffed in his mouth. After torturing him almost enough, he pinched Jiang Yan's neck and lifted him up, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Jiang family? What do you think your Jiang family is? I've kept you here for so many years because of my grandfather's kindness. Since you don't know your own identities, I'll have plenty of time to have fun with you in the future."
"You, you are crazy...you lunatic...do you want to kill me? I am your uncle..."
Jiang Yan's voice became smaller and smaller, because there seemed to be a strange glint in Chen Su's eyes.
"Uncle?" Shen Su said softly, "You've been waiting for my death, haven't you? Assassination, poisoning, planting spies around me... Don't you want to know who that little girl is? I tell you, she is my daughter. Your hopes are dashed."
His voice was like the hum of an evil spirit, "You must live longer, and we will slowly settle the old and new grudges.
Yan Qun saw him off and walked back. As soon as he reached the third floor, he saw several followers carrying a sack towards the stairs at the back door. He raised his hand to signal the followers to stop, and when he opened the sack, he saw that it was Jiang Yan who had fainted.
"Throw it near the Jiang family."
"yes."
After watching his attendants leave, Yan Qun walked to Chen Su's door, knocked, and walked in. "General, did this old man offend you?"
It wasn't easy. After so many years, his general finally stood up.
"Spread the news that I have found my long-lost daughter, quickly." Chen Su kept wiping his hands with a handkerchief, as if he wanted to wipe off a layer of skin.
Yan Qun quickly agreed and told the maid to fetch some water before leaving.
"Daddy!" Jiang Huaixu knocked on the door.
Just now, Fu Tuan live broadcasted to her the scene of Chen Su versus Jiang Yan. She didn't expect that the Chen Su she saw before was actually in disguise - it's not accurate to say it was a disguise. Maybe he was afraid of scaring herself and tried to appear gentle.
After Jiang Boliang, she now has another amazing father!
It's just too cruel to see the young general, who used to be so arrogant and fought on the battlefield, become like this now.
Seeing Jiang Huaixu, Shen Su subconsciously smiled and waved, "Come here."
Jiang Huaixu walked over, took the handkerchief from his hand, and pulled him to sit down. "Dad, I'm going back to Beichuan County tomorrow. Do you want to see me off? Or—will you go back with me?"
Shen Su was slightly stunned, "Did Yan Qun let something slip?"
"Of course I am. If I knew tomorrow, I would be very happy. But I am also very happy now! The happiness lasted a long time."
The anger he felt towards Yan Qun was soothed by Jiang Huaixu's last words. Shen Su asked seriously, "Would you be happier if Dad told you what he was going to do in advance?"
"Whether it's a surprise or told in advance, I'll be happy. I'm happy as long as Daddy is by my side!"
As Jiang Huaixu spoke, he despised himself in his heart. He really treated himself like a child, so childish!
Seeing Jiang Yan, the evil spirit buried deep in his heart was about to break free, but at this moment, he shrank back silently because of his daughter's smiling face. He sighed in his heart, which no one could hear, but to him, it was deafening.
Li Qiao'er was worried for most of the night because there was no boat to go back, but Ah Xu was not in a hurry. When she arrived at the dock in a carriage the next day, the big ship in front of her was a surprise to her.
"A Xu, was this arranged by your father?" she asked.
"right."
Jiang Huaixu's affirmative answer made Li Qiao'er's heart leap with joy, but the next sentence made her freeze again - "My father is with us."
Li Qiaoer felt that there would be something exciting to watch after she returned home this time.
