Yu Jin was waiting for the answer almost like a pilgrim.

He approached her cautiously, step by step, having wanted to ask her this question for a long time.

If she wanted, he would overcome all obstacles in their way of marriage.

If she didn't want to, he would wait until she did.

Yu Jin asked this question lightly, and after Jiang Si's initial shock, he became so angry that his face turned pale.

As expected, he wanted to coax her into nodding his head like he did in his previous life, but in his previous life, she was the Holy Maiden of Wu Miao, while now she was the daughter of the Earl's Mansion who had just broken off an engagement.

If she really nodded, could he still marry her as a princess in a grand sedan chair?

This thought flashed through Jiang Si's mind, and then his mind became clearer.

In this life, she would never give him the chance to take advantage of the situation.

"I don't want to. Please don't make such jokes again, Mr. Yu." Jiang Si raised his hand and wiped the forehead that had been kissed with the back of his hand.

At that moment, she seemed to see the light in the eyes of the boy opposite her suddenly dim, but it seemed just dizziness, and when she looked back, the other party was still calm and composed.

"A forced melon is not sweet. Since Miss Jiang doesn't want me to take responsibility, forget it. Let's continue with the topic just now." Yu Jin said nonchalantly.

"Just tell me, Mr. Yu, what do you want to do now that you saw what I did tonight?" Jiang Si was confused by the sudden kiss just now. She always felt that the person in front of her exuded danger from hair to feet.

"I want to know what Miss Jiang is going to do next."

This girl is so bold that she dares to run to a strange place in the middle of the night to act like a ghost. Who knows what shocking things she will do next.

"I will go to the temple to burn incense and pray for those innocent women who died tragically."

"That's all?"

"That's all. My second brother will go with me then, so Mr. Yu, don't worry."

Jiang Si had no intention of asking Yu Jin for help.

Since you have made up your mind to stay away from him in this life, it is not good to ask others for help when you encounter problems.

"Miss Jiang is sure that Master Zhen will seek justice for Madam Xiu?"

Jiang Si smiled and said, "There is a saying that goes, 'All human affairs are left to fate. I have done what I can."

"Master Zhen is a man who has read books of sages, so he may not believe in ghosts and gods."

"A good official who truly serves the people would rather believe such things when they encounter them."

That's why she had to go to Lingwu Temple to find the family of the other victim.

People came one after another to accuse the Prince of Changxing, and they were all accusing him of the same thing, which would shake even the one who did not believe in ghosts and gods.

"It seems that Miss Jiang has great confidence in Master Zhen."

Jiang Si felt emotional after hearing this.

To be honest, her confidence in Lord Zhen actually comes from the man in front of her.

She admitted that although the man in front of her had played tricks on her emotionally, he made her feel at ease in other aspects.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be tempted...

"I should go back now. I hope you will keep your word about what happened tonight and don't mention it to my second brother."

Yu Jin followed him out.

Jiang Si paused slightly and said, "Master Yu, there is no need to see me off."

Yu Jin smiled and pointed at the big dog lying in the yard: "Let Erniu take you back."

Erniu came over and sniffed the ginger-like hand flatteringly.

Jiang Si was silent for a moment and nodded.

Yu Jin watched Jiang Si walk away accompanied by Erniu, but he still stood in the yard without moving.

He looked down at his hands, and the image of the girl raising her hand to wipe her forehead flashed through his mind.

She seemed to dislike him more than he thought.

This feeling is really unpleasant.

Yu Jin took out a handkerchief and pressed the wound on the palm of his hand that was pierced by his fingernails. The snow-white handkerchief was soon stained with blood.

It's late at night.

Erniu came back and saw Yu Jin still standing in the yard. He went up to him in surprise and circled around him.

Yu Jin stretched out his hand and pulled Erniu's ears, sighing, "Why is he not as likable as you?"

People are really worse than dogs!

Erniu growled twice and tucked his tail between his legs.

Is it guilty of being likable? It is innocent!

In Haitangju, Aqiao looked at the leaking pot again and again, getting very anxious.

It's already this late, why hasn't the girl come back yet? Did something happen?

You shouldn't have let the girl and the barbarian mess around!

Just when Ah Qiao was regretting her decision a hundred times, there was finally movement at the door.

Ah Qiao almost ran out and welcomed Jiang Si and Ah Man in.

"Miss, I was scared to death." Aqiao looked Jiang Si up and down, and seeing that she was fine, she burst into tears.

Jiang Si patted Aqiao's arm in an affable manner: "Okay, nothing to worry about. Is the hot water ready?"

Aqiao nodded repeatedly.

Last time the girl came back in the middle of the night and took a shower immediately. She had experience.

God bless, I hope this experience will never come in handy again.

With his whole body immersed in the steaming bathtub, Jiang seemed so tired that he was too lazy to even move his fingertips.

This tiredness was not because of Xiu Niangzi, but came from that man.

To Yu Qi, she was a substitute for his deceased lover. When he suddenly discovered her existence, he tried his best to get her in order to fill the void in his heart.

To her, he was the only man she had ever been attracted to, and they spent a year together as a loving couple.

With this kind of attitude, how could she possibly gain the upper hand in every clash with him?

What a disappointment!

Jiang Si covered his face with his hands and slowly sank into the water, thinking in annoyance.

The next day, a scream broke the peace of Wangjiazhuang.

Most people in Wangjiazhuang have the surname Wang, and they all have the same ancestor. So naturally the village chief of Wangjiazhuang has the surname Wang.

Village chief Wang's family is the only one in the village that has a large tiled house made of green bricks. After his wife died last year, he married a pretty young widow from a neighboring village. The new wife is only eighteen or nineteen years old.

This morning, the young wife went out to get some water, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw a white butt.

The basin of water splashed directly onto the white buttocks, followed by a loud scream that attracted all the neighbors to come out and watch.

"Hey, isn't this the old bachelor from the west end of the village?"

We are all from the same village. Do you think you won’t be able to recognize us if you strip us naked?

"Oh my god, why did Gousheng get a knife on his butt? Could it be that he was obsessed with the village chief's young wife and got chopped by the village chief?"

Village chief Wang listened to the villagers' discussions with a sullen face. In the long days to come, he would deal with the old bachelor who acted like a hooligan at his doorstep again and again.

On such a hot and noisy morning, no one noticed that the tofu beauty, who was once known as the most beautiful girl in the village, quietly left the village with a small bag. It was not until several days later that people realized that the crazy woman who lost her daughter seemed to have not appeared for a long time.

Jiang Si got up early in the morning to pay his respects to Old Madam Feng, then returned to Begonia Residence and took another nap, not opening his eyes until noon.

Ah Man brought good news: "Girl, Ah Fei is back."
