"You … You brought me here just to show me this? "

Turning around stiffly, Nona stared at Situ Jin with an ugly expression. If she still didn't understand this guy's intentions, then she would really be a fool.

It seemed that she had underestimated his determination.

He had thought that since he had refused, he would definitely give up. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so soft-hearted as to go out for a meal with him. He knew very well the situation outside. However, thinking about how she would still be able to see him once he went back, she felt her heart soften.

But who would have thought that …

"Yeah, I'm just letting you see it."

Situ Jin nodded his head, not hiding his intentions at all.

Right, his goal was to let Ninth Mother see this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of a way to treat her to a meal. The reason for treating her to a meal was to find a chance to bring her out.

Although the two people in her family weren't a threat to her, but … However, he didn't want to do such a bad thing. After all, he did have a request from someone, so naturally, he had to act as if he was asking for someone else's help …

He had originally thought that this girl was greedy and that he wouldn't care as long as he was willing to spend money.

But... He didn't expect that this girl would actually become smart and realize that this was a big matter and not a simple matter. To be honest, if he hadn't discovered this girl and let others, then maybe she wouldn't be so relaxed now.

After all, one could tell that this girl really had some thoughts from a simple map. After he had looked through the map, he had even specifically looked for officials in this area. After they had looked at it, they were all amazed. Everyone's eyes lit up as they asked if they could recommend this expert to them. But... However, if they were to know that the expert in their hearts was actually a young lady with a plain appearance … "Or perhaps, at such an age, she can't even be considered a girl, at most, she's just a little girl …

"I really didn't expect this …"

The corner of her mouth curled up into a cold smile.

Although he admitted it very straightforwardly, he still touched his bottom line.

He had never liked being threatened. Whatever he wanted to do, he would do it naturally, so there was no need for him to care about it.

Furthermore … Moreover, he was clearly telling himself that if he didn't do it, who knew how many people would die? Although he didn't say it out loud, his actions clearly told him that these people died because of him.

It was all because of her persistence …

"Actually... Actually, I don't want to be like this either... But... But I believe you understand the situation better than I do. If you really have a way... I guarantee your safety. "

Shaking his head with a bitter smile …

Scratching her hair, Murong Jing felt a little...

It was a bit depressing!

Alright, he didn't understand. She was clearly a very ordinary girl, why did she always give others the guts to … He had an indescribable feeling … It seemed like if he wasn't careful, he would be dragged away by her rhythm, and then he wouldn't be able to walk back …

He had obviously planned things well. It was normal for a girl to be soft-hearted. Once she saw this, she would probably tell him what to do. But... But...

It seemed rather unexpected.

"Good!" I can tell you what to do! "

Nodding, Jiu Niang agreed without hesitation. "But I have a request!"

"Alright, alright. If you have any requests, just say them!" Originally, he was worried that Jiu Niang wouldn't agree no matter what. However, Situ Jin was still considering whether he should use a forceful method if that were to be the case.

He didn't expect Jiu Niang to agree so straightforwardly. Situ Jin was overjoyed. He had to think of a way to get her down, let alone just asking for it.

"Alright, that's what you said." The corner of her mouth raised into a faint smile as a sly look flashed across her eyes. Something that could guarantee her safety. She didn't believe in anything else, but … However, if he were to personally stay …

Just by thinking about it, one could tell that Situ Jin's identity was not ordinary. Not to mention it was just a drought, even if the world were to be thrown into chaos, there would still be people protecting him, right? As long as he could stay by her side, her safety would be assured.

Moreover, this way, no matter what he did, he would be able to push it onto Situ Jin. It was like adding a natural protective layer on himself, other than hiding it from him, everything else was advantageous. Of course, tying herself up with an unknown person was indeed a bit of a risk, so at the start, Jiu Niang didn't want to take this step. However, it seemed that even if he didn't leave now, there was nothing he could do about it. He would just have to take things one step at a time …

After all, it was his fault, and a moment of carelessness had caused such an unmanageable consequence.

It was a good thing that it was Situ Jin. If it was anyone else, it might have caused some trouble. As long as he had no money or authority, any one of them could kill him in an instant. Although Situ Jin was also a bit annoying, he didn't use any forceful methods. At least he got lucky.

"Of course, I'll keep my word. You don't have to mention any of your requests!"

Patting his chest, Situ Jin boldly agreed without the slightest hesitation.

As long as he could complete this task, no matter how loud the clowns got, it would be useless!

He wanted to see what use it would be to secretly stow away the food! As long as he could smoothly solve the problem here, then he would see how their grains would rot in his hands. Don't think that he didn't know what those people were thinking, all of them just wanted to see how unlucky he was!

"Nona, you don't have to be so polite. If you have any requests, just say them. You're really my lucky star!"

Thinking that his plan was going to fail, Situ Jin excitedly hugged Jiu Niang, his face full of pride.

Speaking of which, it seemed like it had been a good thing ever since he met her …

If she hadn't suddenly appeared, perhaps he would have been eaten by some wild beast instead of those old forests and the deep mountains. Although this girl had knocked him out, she had at least held onto his life …

Then there was that injury. If it wasn't for her using some sort of method, no one would be able to see through it … Otherwise...

Hehe, so many pairs of eyes were staring at him, waiting for him to suffer.

However, they were disappointed as their wounds had been treated by Jiu Niang. They couldn't see anything when they put on their clothes, bandages, and bandages. In fact, they couldn't even … Even that night when that person had purposely provoked him and invited him to compete in sword techniques, he had not made them see that anything was amiss. Instead, he had proven that they were framing him.

Those people could be considered as stealing chickens without getting into trouble.

Not only did they not let him off scot-free, they even made the one in the upper echelon suspect them.

"Hur hur, I really owe it to you!"

Fosun?

There was a faint smile on Nona's face, but her eyes flashed a trace of sarcasm.

Tsk tsk, this person really can say anything when he needs it. I didn't forget when he pointed at me and said he was the Bane … Aren't you afraid of saying too many lies? When the time comes, you might accidentally move your tongue …

However …

It didn't matter, since he said so, he would only listen to it himself. He would talk about the rest later.

"Tell me, do you want silver or a house?" Or is it a field? "

With a big smile on his face, Situ Jin was in a great mood. To him, this was all that Ninth Niang needed, and what she could give him was a priceless treasure. As long as he could deal with this matter smoothly, no matter how much those clowns made a ruckus, it would just be a joke on him.

He, Situ Jin's, belongings were not things that could be taken away just because he wanted to. Even if he didn't like them, those people shouldn't even think about taking them away!

"No, no, that's not what I want!"

Jiu Niang shook her head and looked at Situ Jin with sparkling eyes. She was thinking if he would regret it if she told him her conditions. Thinking of his shocked expression, she was in a good mood, "I want you!"

Jiu Niang giggled and stared at him unblinkingly.

He carefully observed every single change on his face, deeply afraid that he would accidentally miss something.

But...

Situ Jin stood there quietly, his eyes fixed on her, as if someone had poked his acupoints.

After who knows how long …

"Alright!"

Situ Jin nodded his head heavily and forced out a single word. There was no playfulness on his handsome face, even his voice was a little hoarse, "I promise you! "Don't worry, I, Situ Jin will keep my promise!"

Staring silently at Jiu Niang, Situ Jin once again nodded his head. His face was full of seriousness as he looked at Jiu Niang … A hint of mockery flashed across his eyes …

Haha, if … If it was her, there wouldn't be anything bad, right?

Even if … Even if it wasn't Nona, that woman wouldn't allow him to bring back a woman he could depend on, right?

He was able to make his entire family so fearful of him. If he were to increase the number of chips for him in the marriage, then … Then wouldn't they be in a hurry? If it was Nona, they would probably be too eager, right?

A farmer's daughter who had nothing, not only has no parents, no clan, poor tinkling sound … In fact … Even his face was full of pustules … This kind of woman might just be perfect for them...

And … If... If it was Nona, her life wouldn't be that bad, right? At the very least, he felt much more comfortable facing her than the others.

Thinking of this, the corner of Situ Jin's mouth twitched, and a bright smile appeared on it. However, that smile never reached her eyes …

"You … You... "You want to …"

The desolation in his eyes deeply stung Nona's heart.

He clearly knew that he misunderstood, but … But why didn't he find it funny, instead … On the contrary, he felt as if his heart was being blocked. This feeling...

Clutching her chest, Nona wanted to explain something, but was interrupted by Situ Jin.

"Don't worry, since I've already promised you, I will definitely keep my promise. This is the jade pendant my mother left me.

Pulling off the jade pendant from his waist, he stuffed it into Jiu Niang's hands. Situ Jin turned around and disappeared into the distance with a few leaps.
