340: 328 Second Watch 340: 328 Second Watch Xu Xuezi thought that with her being so proactive, n Chao would definitely be unable to resist the temptation.
“Young Lady,” n Chao gently pushed Xu Xuezi away, “If I wanted to marry you, I could propose to Xu Elder openly and aboveboard.”
“You….” Xu Xuezi was suddenly pushed away and felt sowhat annoyed; why could he do this.
“I am well aware that my low status does not match that of the Young Lady, please have so self-respect.”
“n Chao, I, the Young Lady, have already made my move, yet you dare to reject .” Xu Xuezi glared at him, her eyes afla with fiery stars.
“The Young Lady took the initiative because I value your abilities; if it weren’t for your abilities that the Young Lady admires, do you think I would fancy you?”
Her heart belonged to soone else, and that person was Ye Cheng.
“If the Young Lady truly likes Young Master Gu, you should preserve yourself for Young Master Gu.
Young Lady, if you give yourself away so easily, aren’t you afraid that when the scandal breaks, what kind of expression Young Master Gu will have?”
“Whose servant are you, anyway?
You’re a mber of the Xu Family; it’s enough for you to follow my decisions.
Is there any need for you to worry about other issues?”
Right now, she had only one wish: for that woman’s child to perish in the womb, or even better, a double fatality.
Yes, a double fatality.
Xu Xuezi suddenly ca to her senses: “n Chao, I truly did not see you as a man of integrity before.
Today’s incident, consider cheap.
n Chao, I’m giving you another chance.
Her pregnancy is progressing, and the less ti we have to act.
Rember, you have only one chance, and if things go south, I’ll tell Grandfather that you want to marry and even take over the Xu Family.”
As long as there’s an arranged accident during Su Xiaofeng’s childbirth, she definitely could end up with a double fatality.
n Chao thought for a mont: “During childbirth, Young Master Gu will definitely be by her side.
If we want to make a move, next month is the best ti.”
“I don’t care about the timing; I just want to see the results.
Listen, if I hear anything about Su Xiaofeng and her child being safe and sound, prepare yourself to marry ,” said Xu Xuezi, sure that n Chao wasn’t looking down on her out of a false sense of pride.
n Chao’s face remained placid; “If the Young Lady insists on marrying , of course, I cannot refuse.”
“You bastard.”
Seeing that n Chao was out of her control, Xu Xuezi felt irritable.
Why, why did everyone and everything have to be against her?
Gu Yecheng didn’t like her; Grandfather only valued her superficially, his heart never truly had a place for her, and now, even an outsider like n Chao dared to look down on her.
She was Xu Xuezi, the biological granddaughter of her grandfather, the eldest daughter of the Xu family; she was born to look down upon everything and everyone.
Why now, should everyone and everything be against her?
How could she tolerate such treatnt?
So she didn’t want to, nor did she plan to tolerate anyone or anything that stood against her.
Gu Yecheng wanted to have a child with another woman, huh?
Fine, she would make sure he saw the outco.
…
Old Guaizi helped He Xii lift a big vat of dried radishes, feeling nothing himself, but He Xii found it odd: “Guaizi, have you noticed, recently, you’ve been able to lift heavy objects.”
In the past, Guaizi would feel pain in his hand from slightly heavy lifting, and his face would subconsciously wrinkle.
But at so point, Guaizi could lift heavy objects without flinching, just like a strongman.
Without He Xii ntioning it, Guaizi hadn’t noticed.
Once she did, Guaizi asked He Xii to step back: “You step back, I want to try it myself.”
He Xii stepped back, watching as Guaizi alone lifted a tub of radishes weighing over a hundred pounds effortlessly and with ease.
Guaizi put down the tub and looked at his own hands, speechless.
Were they healed?
He Xii stepped forward, took Guaizi’s hands, and looked them over, eventually starting to cry: “Guaizi, your hands are healed, your hands are really healed.”
Ye Cheng’s dical skills were indeed incredible; he truly cured Guaizi’s hands.
“I thought my hands were beyond help, dood to remain this way, but they were actually cured.” Guaizi was also a bit moved; his hands were healed, and he would no longer be a disabled person who couldn’t do heavy labor.
“Ye Cheng really is our family’s lifesaver.” He Xii held Guaizi’s hands, “Co, let’s call Xiaofeng and tell her that your hands are healed.
We must ask her to properly thank him.
Without Ye Cheng, where would you and Pengzi be today?”
Ye Cheng was truly a major benefactor to their family, their gratitude as imnse as the skies.
Even if Ye Cheng could not be with Xiaofeng in the end, his kindness was indelible.
“Yes, we should let the child know.
Xiaofeng is already eight months into her pregnancy; why not move to the city during this ti?
We have Wenqing at ho, the chores won’t be neglected.”
