Chapter 9 Step-by-Step Planning



About ten minutes later, a young male voice rang out, "Auntie, have you arrived yet?"

Her position was high enough that she could see almost everything below with just her eyes open. Seeing that the man had only brought two people with him, she said, "Stop calling for your soul here."

The three looked up in surprise and saw an old woman staring at them with a cold gaze. For some reason, when they met that gaze, they suddenly thought of their leader, who looked at people with the same expression.

It looks harmless, but it makes people afraid to do anything reckless.

The three of them jogged up to her. "Auntie, did you bring the things?"

Gu An'an stepped aside, revealing the pile of things behind her, and the three of them practically had their eyes gleaming with envy.

"Not a pound more, not a pound less, where's the money?"

To be honest, on the way here they had considered whether to double-cross them, since the other party was just an elderly woman and they were three young and strong men.

But now that people are actually in front of them, they start to feel uncertain.

"Auntie, come find us again if you have anything good next time!"

Gu An'an waved her hand without answering, and soon disappeared from their sight.

Does this mean she agreed or not?

The leader was the first to look away. "Let's focus on the present first. Once this batch of goods is sold, I'll have saved enough to support myself and get married."

Thinking about the days when he would soon have a wife and children and a warm bed, the man couldn't help but smile. He was also even more glad that he had stopped in time and hadn't lost this deal.

After leaving the woods, Gu An'an didn't head towards the family compound, but instead turned and went to another place.
