However, Lin Xu believed in one thing: nothing was absolute.
As long as she used the right method, coupled with patience and courage, she would eventually find a chance to break through.
Which cat didn’t cheat? Even if there was any, wouldn’t it be a greater sense of accomplishment to be able to conquer such a man?
All kinds of complicated emotions were tangled together and flashed in her eyes. She thought she had hidden it well, but she didn’t know that all of this was seen by MO Ruyue.
To be honest, she was more willing to fight with the stupid but straightforward Miss Tian. Although she did not take the scheming Lin Xu seriously, it would be more troublesome to deal with her.
MO Ruyue hated troublesome people the most.
Now that there were survivors to deal with, it was already a waste of energy. She really didn’t want to waste her energy on unnecessary things.
“Benefactor, I’m here to ask if you prefer rice or noodles. It’s the cold season of late spring now, and it’s also raining. You can’t not eat, so you should eat a little. ”
Lin Xu spoke directly to Gu Ying, as if she didn’t see the person in his arms. “You don’t have to worry about that. I’m in charge of my man.”
MO Ruyue directly took over the conversation and declared her sovereignty.
After learning from Miss Tian, Lin Xu was already mentally prepared for MO Ruyue’s straightforwardness, so she didn’t seem very surprised.
As if she had just seen another person, she said in surprise, “Young Lady, were you also kidnapped by the bandits and saved by our benefactor? If that’s the case, we’ll be sisters in need.”
This sentence was said very cleverly, imperceptibly lowering MO Ruyue’s status to the same as hers.
On one hand, she was secretly ridiculing MO Ruyue’s innocence. On the other hand, she was pulling the relationship between the two closer in another way.
“This is my wife, not some sister in need.”
Gu Ying seemed to have suddenly been enlightened. Without waiting for MO Ruyue to give any hints, he directly took over the conversation.
This time, Lin Xu would not be able to handle it.
If MO Ruyue had replied, she could still play dumb and use this as an excuse to make a fuss, but Gu Ying’s words had cut off her avenue of making a fuss.
Why else would they say that there would be wars between women? It was entirely because men intentionally or unintentionally left opportunities for them.
It was difficult for her to go around Gu Ying and find trouble with MO Ruyue when he cut off the ball and didn’t give Lin Xu any chance.
“It turns out… This Lady, no, This Lady is your wife. I thought… I thought that you were the one who saved her. I’ve really offended you.”
Lin Xu’s expression was rather unsightly, but she could only force out a smile to find a way to smooth things over.
“Next time, if you don’t understand the situation, don’t just talk nonsense. You should learn from your mistakes, but if you do something knowingly, then it’s different. ”
MO Ruyue was really annoyed by this kind of green tea girl, so she didn’t intend to stop there.
Someone was coveting her man. If she didn’t teach her a lesson, she would really think that she was a soft persimmon.
Moreover, that woman obviously didn’t have the intention of backing off. In that case, she would play with her.
These words were already very impolite, and they were just short of directly pointing out Lin Xu’s thoughts.
MO Ruyue’s fingers wrapped around Gu Ying’s hand that was around her waist, and their fingers were intertwined. This kind of public yet subtle show of affection was more effective than words.
Lin Xu’s eyes uncontrollably drifted over and stopped between the two’s intimately intertwined fingers.
It was already very difficult for her to maintain the smile on her face, let alone think of something to refute MO Ruyue’s words.
The corners of Gu Ying’s lips curved into a smile. His other hand caressed MO Ruyue’s cheek, affectionately pushing her wind-blown messy hair behind her ear, and then gently rubbing the top of her head a few times.
This gentle pat on the head was even more lethal than his previous words, and Lin Xu could no longer maintain her fake smile.
“Since the two of you aren’t hungry, I won’t bother you. If you want to eat something later, there will be food left in the pot for you. Just come and eat.”
After she finished speaking, she gave a slight nod, turned around, and walked away quickly.
MO Ruyue looked at Lin Xu’s back and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
“Ying, this woman hasn’t given up yet. She’s really a person who won’t turn back until she hits a wall.”
“Alright, Bing ‘Er, let’s go back now. From now on, we won’t have anything to do with each other. It’s no use even if she has any other thoughts.”
Although Gu Ying really enjoyed MO Ruyue’s jealous look, he didn’t want her mood to be affected, so he advised her.
“There’s no hurry. We still have the whole night. The road outside is muddy and difficult to walk on, and it’s even easier for situations to occur if we travel in the dark. It’s safer to wait until dawn.”
MO Ruyue didn’t seem to be in a hurry to get on the road.
When she left the survivors’ village, she had already left a message that if she couldn’t return tonight, she would wait until tomorrow.
Anyway, the village was hidden and it would not be easy to find it. She did not have to worry about any problems after leaving for a while.
“What’s going on with these people? I saw that you directly crippled them, and in order to prevent them from biting their tongues to commit suicide, you deliberately dislocated their jaws. They must be a group of extremely evil people, and they must have angered you.”
MO Ruyue changed the topic and looked at the piles of people in the courtyard, as well as the man and woman tied to the tree. She could more or less guess the situation.
Gu Ying immediately recounted what he had seen and knew. Although his tone was also indifferent, one could still hear the killing intent in it.
‘Yes, not to mention that you’ll be furious when you see it. If it were me, I wouldn’t let them die so easily either.”
After MO Ruyue heard what had happened) she thought of the big pit she had seen when she came over, and an evil fire also rose in her heart. She wanted to personally crush these bastards.
Although the group of bandits who were on the verge of death had all become paralyzed, their ears were still working. When they heard MO Ruyue’s words, their hearts trembled.
The woman who had appeared later was not a good person either. From the way she had shown her skills, she did not seem to be any weaker than the masked man.
Not long ago, the brigands had been arrogant, but now, they couldn’t even tremble in fear. They could only open their eyes wide in horror and wait for their next fate.
“Let’s not care about these beasts for now. I have something to show you.”
Gu Ying pulled MO Ruyue into the house and showed her the grain, gold, and silver he had dragged out.
“Not bad. The harvest is quite good!”
MO Ruyue couldn’t help but whistle loudly. She didn’t expect that Gu Ying would gain so much from fighting for justice this time.
If the mountain bandits outside knew that they had provoked such a fiend, would they have already regretted it so much?
“To you and me, wealth is just a string of numbers. Moreover, all of this wealth added up is not even a fraction of it. On the other hand, this food can be considered a timely rain.”
The most important thing to Gu Ying was the food. As for the other valuables, he wouldn’t feel bad even if they were left here as scrap metal..
