Chapter 102: 90 Candid (Second Revision)
They were actually together…
Little Jing Kong seriously pondered for a moment, cocking his head and asking, “Lady, were you also abducted by him?”
Yao Family looked puzzled.
Lord Gu’s face was red with embarrassment: “…”
Last night, Yao Family indeed had Lord Gu talking a lot about Gu Jiao, but how could Lord Gu dare to tell her everything? At least he did not say that he had someone kidnap Gu Jiao and a child with her.
He later inquired that the child was adopted from the temple by Gu Jiao.
She is obviously struggling to make ends meet, yet she adopts another burden. Who knows what this girl is thinking!
Although Yao Family was confused by what Little Jing Kong said, she faintly remembered that he was the little monk from the temple. She squatted down to be at eye level with him, and softly asked, “I remember you, you’re the little monk from the temple. What’s your name?”
Little Jing Kong blinked his round, black eyes and answered endearingly, “My name is Jing Kong! I’m not a little monk anymore, I came down from the mountain!”
She rubbed his little head which was sprouting some hair, smiling gently, “I’m here to see Jiaojiao, is she home?”
Little Jing Kong looked surprised, “Huh, you know Jiaojiao too?”
Yao Family nodded, “Yes, I know her.”
Little Jing Kong lowered his head in sadness, “You might not be able to see her today, she’s sick and can’t see guests.”
Yao Family immediately became worried, “How did she get sick?”
“The old lady said she was too tired,” Little Jing Kong thought for a moment and said guiltily, “It must be tiring looking after me. ”
After all, I eat so much.
Lord Gu felt a bit guilty. Did he happen to injure that girl with a flog yesterday?
He dared not tell Yao Family about it…
Yao Family looked at Little Jing Kong pleadingly. She sounded hurried, but her voice was very soft, “Can I go in and see her? I promise I won’t disturb her.”
“I’m not certain if Jiaojiao wishes to see you, wait here while I go ask her.” Little Jing Kong closed the door and ran back to Gu Jiao’s bedside. Speaking in an especially soft voice, he asked, “Jiaojiao, the lady from the temple came to see you, do you want to see her?”
Gu Jiao was fast asleep!
After a while, Little Jing Kong opened the door, announcing to Yao Family, “Okay, Jiaojiao didn’t object. You can go in!”
Yao Family walked inside, filled with excitement.
Lord Gu wanted to go in too.
Little Jing Kong stretched out a small hand to stop him: “You can’t go in.”
Lord Gu frowned, “Why?”
Little Jing Kong raised his chin in defiance, “Jiaojiao didn’t give permission for you to enter!”
