Chapter 331: 179 Father-In-Law (First Update)
Xiao Liulang wasn’t fooled by the kid that easily.
Mainly, because the monthly rent Little Jingkong paid was safeguarded by Gu Jiao. Although he could use it anytime, Gu Jiao controlled every detail.
If a month’s rent wasn’t paid, Gu Jiao could immediately sense the two’s mischief.
Little Jingkong, who was so fond of exploiting his bad brother-in-law, was now offering him free rent. What big trouble could that be bringing him?
Gu Jiao was not a fool nor was she easily duped.
Xiao Liulang firmly rejected Little Jingkong’s bribe.
Little Jingkong had mistakenly thought his bad brother-in-law was straightforward and honorable, which brought him both distress and embarrassment.
He nervously waited for Jiaojiao to pick him up from Guozijian after school, longing and fearing to meet her at the same time. He had never felt such a strong conflict before.
Gu Jiao was in trouble. She went out of nowhere, stumbled into a carriage, and crushed someone underneath her.
Finally regaining her senses after a daze, she quickly got up from the man beneath her and took a hard look at him. “Sir, are you alright?” she asked.
Could Marquis Xuanping be alright?
He was nearly choked to death.
As the renowned military marquis of Zhan Country, who had faced numerous battles and enemies and earned outstanding military services, he didn’t ask for a glorious death, but at least he didn’t want to die in such a humiliating manner.
He pondered how the history books would record his death – military marquis, Xiao Ji, choked to death, aged, an uncertain number of years.
Damn!
Marquis Xuanping mentally cursed Chang Jing, who had dispatched the horse carriage a hundred times. Subsequently, he felt a pair of delicate little hands gently kneading from his back, passing under his arms and lifting him up. The hands clasped his abdomen tightly and pushed upwards.
He felt a surge of breath from his chest, and the date stuck in his throat was coughed up.
Meanwhile, Chang Jing finally crouched down, turned over the hood of the carriage, and found his hidden weapon, the little ball!
Chang Jing put away the little ball, took the carriage hood in his hands, turned around and was about to set it on the carriage, but then he saw a very pale Marquis Xuanping staring at him.
There was also a young girl by Marquis Xuanping’s side.
Chang Jing: Uh… what just happened?
Marquis Xuanping’s mouth twitched as if he was about to have a stroke.
