Chapter 675 Pepper Hill x Original Heroine 85
Ruan Yan told Yan Mei about how she accidentally broke her uncle's favorite antique ornament. Since she couldn't sort out the emotional issues, she would sort out the financial issues first.
Yan Mei: "That's easy. You just pledge yourself to him and become his wife. Then not only will he be yours, but all his money will be yours as well. You won't have to pay for the ornaments, of course."
"Look, your uncle can always take out some thousand-year-old ginseng for food without blinking an eye. He must be very rich. He became rich overnight. Aren't you tempted?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ruan Yan looked at Yan Mei in confusion, then lowered her voice and said, "I do want to, but my uncle likes men."
"Impossible, I've never seen any man and his uncle be like you and your uncle!" Yanmei retorted.
Ruan Yan continued talking for a while, but when she saw that Yan Mei firmly refused to believe it, she gave up.
Yan Mei: "Come on, I'll help you keep an eye on the work. It's so late, aren't you going home?"
"Go back, go back. If I don't go back, he will come out to look for me. How am I going to get along with him in the future after something like this has happened." Ruan Yan continued, "Forget it. It's useless to ask you, someone who has never been in a relationship. I'd better figure it out myself."
After Ruan Yan returned to Jiaoqiu's mansion, she found Jiaoqiu standing at the door. As expected, he was almost about to go out to look for her.
"Uncle-master, can I ask you a favor?" Ruan Yan didn't dare to look at Jiao Qiu, so she walked in front of Jiao Qiu and spoke first.
Ruan Yan didn't know how to get along with her uncle-master and was extremely nervous.
"You talk, I'm listening." Jiao Qiu nodded slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he followed behind Ruan Yan. There seemed to be an indelible affection between his brows as he looked at Ruan Yan.
"What happened last night... is my fault, Uncle Master, please don't tell my Master about this, okay?"
Regardless of the feelings or not, she must not let her master know what happened between her and her uncle last night.
She knew that if her uncle told her master, her life would be in danger. For her own safety, she had to do this.
Her master possessed unique skills and was an expert in the use of hidden weapons. He had carried out countless murder missions, but he could kill her without anyone noticing, and no one could trace it back to her master.
She only hoped that her uncle would be magnanimous enough and, for the sake of their past friendship, help her keep the secret from her master.
However, while Ruan Yan was speaking, she did not notice that Jiao Qiu's expression seemed to darken.
"Why?" Jiao Qiu seemed to be thinking of something. His light golden eyes seemed to be covered with frost and shrouded in dark clouds.
However, Jiaoqiu still had that smiling look on his face, so it was hard to tell.
"I'm afraid my master will misunderstand us." Ruan Yan took a deep breath and pretended to speak in a normal tone.
Jiao Qiu was about to say something in reply when Ruan Yan's jade bell suddenly rang.
As soon as Ruan Yan answered the phone, she learned that it was a courier from Luofu. As her attention was diverted, Ruan Yan was no longer nervous. She happily returned to the door and signed for the courier.
"Great! The storybooks that I asked General Jingyuan to send me have arrived!" Ruan Yan opened the package right in front of Jiao Qiu. It was a pile of various storybooks.
The name on the cover of the storybook on top was "The Female Disciple is Too Pretty - The Cold Master Forces Her to Love You". Jiao Qiu glanced at it.
