Chapter 69 I Want You to Be More Ruthless (1/2)



However, Gu Huaisheng never believed in superstition.

He's gone.

Even from his back view, Ruan Jiaojiao could foresee his future.

well.

But what can be done about it?

Ruan Jiaojiao went back and continued studying.

Two days later, I heard that something had happened to Gu Huaisheng.

"Jiaojiao, could you go check on him for me? I heard he's badly injured!" Shen Junmei was also very worried, but to avoid suspicion, she only dared to tell Ruan Jiaojiao.

"Okay, Sister Junmei, don't worry, just take good care of the child for me, I'll be right there!"

She knew that Gu Huaisheng's impulsive nature would inevitably lead to trouble.

Sure enough, when she arrived at Gu Huaisheng's door, she heard a loud scream.

Someone saw her arrive and quickly warned, "Jiaojiao's here! Don't go in! They're chasing away a female ghost inside. Don't go in, or you'll be the next one to be possessed!"

Ruan Jiaojiao: "..."

What the heck?

However, the "ritual" inside is also coming to an end.

Many people rushed in to see what was going on.

Ruan Jiaojiao went in late, but she still saw Gu Huaisheng, who had been stripped of his clothes and scalded red by boiling water, being carried in.

Oh my god!

She asked someone who had arrived early, "What are you doing?"

“Oh, exorcising a female ghost,” the man replied. “You don’t know, do you? The reason Gu Huaisheng kissed that widow… your former sister-in-law, was because he was possessed by a female ghost when he passed by the river! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done such a scandalous thing!”

"His future in-laws came looking for him, refusing to marry their daughter off no matter what. Old Man Gu had no choice but to hire someone to exorcise the ghost. The female ghost in the water is afraid of being burned, so the female ghost on Gu Huaisheng has been driven away. His future in-laws are very satisfied with Old Man Gu's actions, and now they've agreed to the marriage between the two children..."

Ruan Jiaojiao: "..."

Feudalism is harmful!

What female ghost? What could she possibly possess?

It's just an excuse the older generation makes up to maintain that arranged marriage!

Gu Huaisheng was burned, so Ruan Jiaojiao couldn't go in anymore.

She went up the mountain to pick some herbs, ground them into powder, and asked Fu Ting to deliver them to her.

After Fu Ting returned, Ruan Jiaojiao hurriedly asked about Gu Huaisheng's condition.

Fu Ting: "..."

Fu Ting, with a long face, bluntly stated his thoughts: "I'm not happy that you care so much about other men. You need to appease me first. Once you've cheered me up, I'll tell you how Gu Huaisheng is doing."

Ruan Jiaojiao: "..."

Ruan Jiaojiao threw a pillow at him and shouted his name: "Fu! Ting!"

Fu Ting, who had just been so assertive, immediately cowered upon hearing Ruan Jiaojiao's tone and quickly said with a forced smile, "Hehe, sweetie, don't be angry, I'll tell you—"

“Gu Huaisheng is badly injured, but your herbs should help. I have a feeling that the boiling water scalded not only his body, but also his spirit… He seems to have lost his energy…”

"However, there's a silver lining: his in-laws have agreed not to call off the engagement. They should quickly send that girl to take care of him. She's the youngest in her family, spoiled since childhood, but she's not at all pampered and is very capable. Gu Huaisheng has actually turned misfortune into blessing..."

It's hard to imagine that Gu Huaisheng has been wasted away like this.

In Ruan Jiaojiao's heart, he is still that impulsive and reckless boy.

But in less than a day, it's turned out like this...

All she could do was sigh and say, "Life is unpredictable."

Gu Huaisheng was a character who did not appear in the original story, so Ruan Jiaojiao did not know what his ending was.
