Although Sun Ran was still confused, he would not change his mind. Therefore, every word he said next was from the bottom of his heart.
"This is the first time you've come to Cui Yu and heard about me. When you opened the door and saw me, you actually made me a little happy, but I've never dared to admit it, I live in this world, and I have the most experience with money, and I rarely come into contact with women. You're the first one, and the first one I hate is neither, nor is it love …" Sun Si Ran smiled bitterly. His skin was somewhat pale.
Chen Xiao heard it clearly. So, his godfather was just a mummy, but he also had courage. He actually accompanied Qi and Princess to find the one he loved.
Wasn't he afraid that after the princess was with that Taoist, she would abandon him?
Xia Xian stared at Chen Xiao, her eyes seeming to ask what to do next.
It was also because of Chen Xiao's godfather that he revealed his thoughts when he almost lost his life.
Chen Xiao whispered a few more words into Xia Xian's ear, who stared at the bad child in surprise.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure." Chen Xiao nodded.
Xia Xian didn't like to play tricks on others because it wasn't the work of a gentleman to make fun of others' love, but if one thought about it carefully, it didn't seem like a gentleman to them.
Since he wasn't a gentleman, he couldn't care too much about it. As long as Chen Xiao was happy, it was fine. Besides, the man lying on the bed was his godfather.
Therefore, Xia Xian daintily said, "Then are you willing to marry me?"
Sun Si Ran slightly nodded his head. "I am willing. For you, I am willing to give up everything from the past."
As a thief, this was the first time he felt that being with a girl he liked was even more blissful than owning a mountain of gold and silver.
"Can you kiss me now?" It was a bit shameful to ask this question, but it was Chen Xiao's idea.
The planner, however, was standing at the side, staring at Sun's reaction with rapt attention.
Fortunately, Sun Sran wasn't confused. He pointed at someone and said, "He has to go out first."
Immortal Xia didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. Just look; this was retribution.
Chen Xiao curled his lips. "I forgot about it when I had a wife. Alas, poor me, go buy a candied fruits to calm down."
Xia Xian said a few words to Sun Sran to ease him to sleep, then went to chase after Chen Xiao.
"Your godfather should like that woman a lot. With your intelligence, it shouldn't be difficult to get them together, right?"
Although she had only known Chen Xiao for a day, during that day, Xia Xian had fully witnessed his mischievous side.
Chen Xiao shook his head. "Difficult, even harder than the blue sky."
He had lived in the Duke Huai Palace for a long time, and he had met many nobles. However, he had unintentionally overheard their conversation and felt that it was quite interesting. Thus, he learned from them that their tones of speech were similar.
"Why? "I feel that your godfather is pretty good. He's quite handsome and rich. Although it's true that coming to this place isn't a good thing, as men, this is unavoidable." A man should always be inferior to his daughter. Women should work at home doing housework while men spend money to buy prostitutes.
Chen Xiao put his hands behind his back like an adult, "You don't understand, my godfather and that girl's status is a little awkward."
Xia Xian was very interested. "Awkward?" What's so embarrassing about it? "
"I'll tell you in detail after I buy the candied fruits." Chen Xiao went out of the brothel to buy candied fruits. He was quite elegant and even specially brought a bunch of candied fruits for Xia Xian.
If he had been born a few years earlier, he would have been a big fan of people by now.
Inside Xia Xian's room, a girl and a child were nibbling on a candied fruit, discussing some gossip.
"I'm telling you, you mustn't tell anyone." Chen Xiao had a strong sense of confidentiality, but he didn't do the job well enough. This was because if he deliberately hid it, he wouldn't open his mouth at all.
"I will keep my mouth shut."
Besides, in a place like this, she didn't have any friends other than Chen Xiao, who she had just met. Even if she had a lot of things on her mind, no one could tell her.
"The ones that godfather likes are the princesses, Qi and Princess. Have you heard of them?"
Xia Xian thought for a moment, then came to a sudden realization. "Are you talking about the one from the Duke Palace?"
This princess was quite famous among the people. Not only did they like a Taoist, they even stabbed the current Imperial Advisor, her master, for the sake of a Taoist. At that time, news of this had spread like wildfire.
"Yes, that's her." Chen Xiao continued, "Ever since that Taoist called Luo Chen left the capital, the princess didn't even think about eating. Later on, she met me and my godfather, so we accompanied her to Mount Shu to meet that Taoist."
"Huh?" "You said that the Princess came all the way here just to find that Daoist priest?"
It seemed that this princess was still an infatuated person. Even though she knew that she couldn't get such feelings, she still chose to fly into the fire.
However, there were times when people were young and frivolous. From a logical point of view, she was not in the wrong. She was just bravely pursuing love.
"That's right. I pity my godfather for following me the entire way and not giving up." Chen Xiao's words were obviously pasting gold onto Sun Si Ran's face.
"En, so that means that your godfather is truly loyal to the princess. That's right, what's the identity of your godfather?" Since Chen Xiao said that his identity was awkward, there must be another reason other than the Daoist priest that prevented him from doing so.
Chen Xiao was a little embarrassed. "My godfather …" My godfather is a thief. "
Xia Xian's mouth dropped open. Thief? Was that good-looking guy a thief? It seemed a little hard to believe.
Chen Xiao stubbornly helped Sun Silan regain his face. "My godfather is a very powerful thief, and his kung fu is very good. Besides, there's nothing in this world that he can't steal from me. Do you know that?" "My foster father stole 10 million gold and hid it in Luo Fan."
Xia Xian was flabbergasted by her display.
"One …" Ten million … Gold? "
In her entire life, the most money she had seen was five hundred and twenty-one silver notes. The ten million gold that Chen Xiao had mentioned was something she could not imagine.
"Shocked?" Chen Xiao was just as proud as he was of inheriting that huge amount of wealth. However, it was not impossible, because if his godfather became a bachelor his entire life, then he wouldn't be able to have a wife, and he wouldn't be able to have children. Then, in order to not waste his gold, he could only leave it to his godson. No problem.
However, Chen Xiao's obsession with wealth had yet to reach such an insane level. It was somewhat possible for him to be infatuated with candied fruits.
No matter what, other than his godfather, this godfather of his, his godson, had to work harder so that his godfather could end his bachelorhood as soon as possible.
"Yes, very surprised." Xia Xian smiled coyly. A thief had stolen 10 million gold with just his hands. What could be used to describe this? Domineering? Heroic? It seemed to be just praise, not quite the same.
"That's why it's so hard for them to get together. In the eyes of the princess, my godfather is a bandit with no good points. He only knows how to steal things." Chen Xiao's eyes were filled with disappointment.
