Chapter 388: The Angry Warlord of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter 44
Quan Jiu ignored his denial and continued talking to himself.
"This disease is really tricky. If you don't get treatment soon, you can only live so long."
She held up four fingers.
Yan Zheng frowned: "Four years?"
Quan Jiu crossed his arms and shook his head: "Four months."
Yan Zheng's face showed a slight change.
Four months...
After all, he was a knowledgeable superior, so even though he knew the countdown to his life, Yan Zheng did not lose his composure.
"Who are you."
He asked the question that concerned him most.
Quan Jiu did not tell her his identity:
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can cure your illness."
Liu Jiaojiao has never studied medicine. If her identity was known, she probably wouldn't believe that she could cure illnesses. Instead, she would suspect that this was a political conspiracy because of her relationship with Si Jinnian.
"Words are not enough, Commander Yan, try to feel the area three inches below your left chest and press it with your thumb to see if you feel any severe pain..."
Yan Zheng did as she said and pressed hard, his brows furrowed in pain.
He looked at Quan Jiu with doubt.
Quan Jiu looked him in the eye frankly:
"The only person who can cure you right now is me, Commander Yan. The choice is now yours."
Yan Zheng hit the nail on the head: "What do you want? Gold, silver, treasures? Glory and wealth? Promotion and advancement?"
There is no free lunch in the world, everyone knows this.
Quan Jiu shook his head:
"No rush. If you want to recover from this illness, you need at least seven days of medicinal baths and half a month of acupuncture. When you feel your body is getting better, we can discuss my terms."
When he first heard this, he thought she was doing it for his own good, but a shrewd man like Yan Zheng knew immediately that her request was by no means simple.
It is very likely that if I bring it up now, he will reject it, so I can only take it step by step.
Yan Zheng thought about his recent physical condition, his eyes darkened slightly:
"I promise."
In half a month, he could always tell whether she was a human or a ghost.
…
The deal was done, and Quan Jiu was retained as a distinguished guest of the Yan family.
Yan Zheng arranged a bedroom for her on the third floor and also assigned her a servant.
As soon as Quan Jiu walked from the third floor to the second floor, he ran into a man who was about to go upstairs.
The man was wearing a silver suit tonight, which sparkled brightly under the crystal chandelier.
Quan Jiu frowned slightly and raised his leg to go around him.
Yan Yu stretched out his long legs and blocked Quan Jiu's way:
"Why are you upstairs? The second floor is full of my dad's guests. Don't barge in recklessly, or I won't be able to protect you if something happens."
Quan Jiu rolled his eyes: "Master Yan, you stare at me every day, are you free?"
Yan Yu blinked her phoenix eyes in grievance, and seemed to be playing the victim:
"I'm not idle, I'm very busy. I'm just worried that you will be bullied."
Anyone who came tonight would be enough to shake Tangcheng. She is so pretty, who knows, she might offend some big shot.
Quan Jiu sneered, "Thank you so much."
Yan Yu answered fluently, tilting his head innocently: "Then do you want to pledge your love to me?"
Quan Jiu showed an extremely brilliant smile. The beauty's smile was as bright as the clouds, which stunned Yan Yu, a man who had been wandering among flowers for many years.
Taking advantage of the moment when he was stunned, Quan Jiu suddenly raised his leg and kicked him.
"grass!"
Yan Yu was caught off guard by the attack and dodged in a hurry. When he finally stood firm on the stairs and looked up again, Quan Jiu had already walked to the stairs to the first floor.
He shook his head in annoyance: "So you still only like the spicy pepper."
…
As soon as Quan Jiu got into the car, Yan Yu got in.
She looked indifferent: "Go down."
Yan Yu lost his nonchalant look. He pointed at the car and looked at Quan Jiu curiously:
"If I'm not mistaken, this car belongs to my old man."
Even the driver was his father's personal driver, Uncle Li.
Is Pepper actually related to his dad?
Yan Yu's brows were tightly knitted together.
How is this possible?
Quan Jiu did not deny it, with a smile that said, "A villain has achieved success":
"Yeah, your dad's car."
"What's your relationship with my dad?"
Quan Jiu smiled even brighter and said seriously:
"I'm going to be your stepmother, son, are you happy?"
Yan Yu's face changed immediately, with a weird expression as if he had eaten shit.
The woman he wanted to seduce was actually his father's fourth concubine?!
When his girlfriend suddenly became his stepmother, Yan Yu's mouth twitched and he was completely speechless.
This is exactly the effect Quan Jiu wanted, so that he wouldn't have to chase after her.
The car started and drove all the way to the hotel. Quan Jiu returned to the hotel tonight just to take the luggage in the hotel to Yan's house.
Yan Yu was obviously shocked and didn't say a word the whole way.
When Quan Jiu got out of the car, he suddenly stopped her and said seriously:
"I've thought it through."
Quan Jiu: “???”
Finally thought it through and decided to break up with her?
Yan Yu: "I want to steal my dad's girlfriend!"
Quan Jiu was surprised: "???"
Filial piety is no longer possible.
Is this the legendary filial son?
"You haven't even entered yet. I can still grab you now."
Yan Yu thought that what she said before about having a fiancé was just an excuse. After all, it would not sound good for a young woman like her in her twenties to marry a middle-aged man as a concubine.
Quan Jiu couldn't help but give a thumbs up:
"Filial piety is the most important virtue. You even cheated on your own dad. What a hero, brother!"
If she had a son like that, she would have broken his legs that very day.
After Yan Yu figured it out, he started to smile again:
"Stop mocking me. I'm serious. My dad isn't as strong as me, and his figure isn't as good as mine. If you follow him, won't you just be a widow?"
Quan Jiu didn't bother to pay attention to him and went upstairs to get his luggage.
Yan Yu didn't care about her indifference and followed her as if she was familiar with the route.
As soon as Quan Jiu entered the room, he started packing his things. Yan Yu stood at the door for two seconds and walked in directly.
"Did I let you in? Get out." Quan Jiu turned around and chased him away.
Yan Yu put one hand in his pocket and instead of walking out, he took a few steps closer:
"The door is open and aboveboard, so why are you feeling guilty?"
The door was wide open, and anyone passing by could see the scene inside clearly. If she forced him out, it would only make her look guilty.
Quan Jiu frowned: "Don't talk to me, don't touch my things."
Yan Yu immediately smiled and saluted:
"Sir, I understand~"
…
"Third Master, the lady is in this hotel."
Xue Cheng parked the car at the door.
Si Jinnian sat in the back row, glanced sideways at the gift box on the empty seat, a faint smile flashed in his eyes.
He could already imagine her reaction.
Xue Cheng opened the car door for him and wanted to pick up the gift box, but Si Jinnian interrupted him:
"Don't move."
Xue Cheng had no choice but to give up and watched his commander do it himself, carrying the gift box into the hotel.
