These words were spoken.
Old Yuan and the others were overjoyed.
Overjoyed, Old Yuan secretly glanced at Gu Guanhai.
Another glance.
She then said timidly, "Well, as for the commendation and all that, I actually don't need it!"
Old Yuan asked cautiously, "Exactly, can we offset what I did before?"
Compared to his achievements, Lao Yuan actually cared more about his own life!
After all, given his status, any further achievements would only be icing on the cake for him, but...
When Gu Guanhai beat him up, he really did beat him up!
The kind that's completely pure and undiluted!
Gu Guanhai exclaimed upon hearing this: "!!!"
He immediately raised an eyebrow.
Merit is merit, and fault is fault!
He looked at Lao Yuan and sneered, "I only said I wanted to ask for credit, did I say I wanted to ask for credit for you?"
"As the director of the Supernatural Abilities Bureau, your merit this time can barely offset the crime of taking Qiu Jin and the others into danger. Do you still want to offset what you did before?"
With that, Gu Guanhai sneered and said, "Using my wife as a raft, making her risk her life for you, Lao Yuan, even if I don't hold this against you, someone else will when we get back!"
"If you know what's good for you, you'll obediently let me beat you up once you're better!"
"Believe me, it's much better for me to beat you up than for them to gang up on you!"
Upon hearing this, Old Yuan exclaimed: "!!!"
His already pale face turned as white as snow.
It’s over!
How could he have forgotten about that?
Yu Mingxiang's wool is easy to fleece, but...
Yu Mingxiang is not a little lamb, but a fierce beast who is cherished by her family!
It's definitely a ferocious beast!
Anyone who touches her will be splattered with blood!
Old Yuan: ……
I feel like my whole life has become bleak and meaningless.
Therefore.
After Gu Guanhai left, Old Yuan, looking dejected, shamelessly went to Yu Mingxiang, the person directly responsible, to plead for mercy.
"Fragrance of tea! Ancestor of fragrance of tea..."
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
Stare at him.
"Don't shout!"
She said, "I'm afraid your ancestors from the Yuan family will come back and settle accounts with me!"
Old Yuan touched his face.
"Don't be afraid!"
He said, "In a sense, your ancestor was the evil cultivator ancestor of our Xia Kingdom, while my ancestor was a righteous cultivator who had experienced many hardships. He couldn't beat your ancestor!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang was speechless.
He rolled his eyes at Lao Yuan, speechless.
Old Yuan: ……
I had to bite the bullet and keep pestering them.
"What a wonderful aroma of tea, my little darling!"
"The thing about me hiding a razor blade in my amulet and bleeding you dry was truly out of necessity. Could you please plead for me?"
"Old Gu will beat me to death! Even if Old Gu doesn't beat me to death, my boss and his gang will beat me to death when I get home!"
"I'm begging you, please? If you won't listen, I'll kowtow to you."
"..."
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
I was really driven to desperation by him.
In the end, all I could say was, "There's no way I'll plead for you!"
"After all, what you did about hiding razor blades in talismans really scared me. Besides, the people above me are protecting me. As a beneficiary of this system, how can I go against them?"
"I would never do something that undermines myself!"
"Take this beating as a lesson to you. Let's see if you dare to keep your mouth shut next time. If you have something to say, just say it directly instead of sneaking around!"
At this point, Mingxi, seeing Old Yuan's utterly dejected expression, chuckled softly, "Although I can't plead for you and spare you this beating, however..."
"As a doctor, I can extend your sentence as much as possible!"
These words were spoken.
Old Yuan: "!!!"
He was overjoyed immediately.
"real?"
He said in disbelief.
Yu Mingxiang nodded, "Really!"
She said, "I'll drag this out until we return to China, and I'll bring Mei Fang along to watch the execution!"
Upon hearing this, Old Yuan exclaimed: "!!!"
