After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 376

Mu Nanfeng's head was buzzing after being hit. He was just about to curse out loud, but when he raised his head and saw Zhao Changdu's handsome face that could kill without blinking, he immediately closed his mouth.

Zhao Changdu's eyes glanced over indifferently, giving people an invisible sense of pressure. With such a strong aura, even the King of Heaven would feel apprehensive in his heart.

Mu Nanfeng had heard of his methods in the military. At this moment, he was already somewhat shaken, resenting why he had taken this damn job. Not only did he not make any money, but he also offended this killing god.

Zhao Changdu's tone was flat, but it made people feel a chill. "If you tell me now, I can spare you some physical suffering."

Mu Nanfeng said with a wry smile, "Young Master Zhao, I really don't know her name or where she is from! I only know that she is very beautiful, especially her eyes, they are exactly the same as Madam Zhao's. When she came, she was wearing a veil and I only saw her eyes clearly in the dim light, nothing else! If I'm lying to you, may I be sliced into a thousand pieces!"

Gu Ying frowned. "Where is she from?"

Mu Nanfeng quickly said, "From her accent she sounds like she is from Bianjing. She was with a man in black who was also masked. He seems to be highly skilled in martial arts and was specifically protecting her on the way here."

Zhao Changdu's brows furrowed tightly. "Any other characteristics?"

Mu Nanfeng shook his head. "No, but if there was anything else I wouldn't dare hide it from Young Master Zhao and Young Master Ye. What happened this time was indeed my fault. I guarantee that in the future I will never dare to touch a single hair of Madam Zhao or her sister—"

Ye Qingchi scoffed and kicked over viciously, "There's still a future for you?"

Mu Nanfeng bent over in pain. Looking at Zhao Changdu's cold handsome face, he didn't dare say another word. He only said, "That's all, that's all. I beg Young Master Zhao and Young Master Ye to spare my life. This little brother will definitely leave Bianjing far away!"

Ye Qingchi was surprised. "What?"

Mu Nanfeng pulled at his neck and said, "I didn't dare touch Fourth Young Lady. Young Master Ye can ask Madam Zhao if you don't believe me!"

Ye Qingchi turned to Gu Ying for confirmation. "Ying...Is what he said true?"

Gu Ying nodded. "He did not get the chance."

Mu Nanfeng shrank his neck. He had lust but not the guts. When Gu Shuang was threatening suicide last night, he had already let her go.

Hearing this, Ye Qingchi's expression became complicated instead. Last night, he had clearly seen Fu Xunzhi's attitude towards Gu Shuang, and while feeling distressed for her, he had even despicably thought that if she was robbed of her chastity by Mu Nanfeng, then at least no one else in the capital would dare marry her...

As long as she was willing, he would kill Mu Nanfeng for her and welcome her into the Ye Family to be his wife.

This was probably the only chance he could have to get her.

But now Gu Ying tells him that Gu Shuang is still innocent, then her engagement to Fu Xunzhi...would of course not be called off.

Ye Qingchi was in a daze for a moment. Qin happily said, "It's good that nothing happened to Gu Shuang. I was worried that this matter would make her the laughing stock of Bianjing. Since Mu Nanfeng didn't touch her, I can rest assured. Last night when I didn't let Young Master bring everyone back to the Duke's mansion, this was also a consideration. Since Fu Xunzhi had mentioned earlier that rumors had already spread to Bianjing, then to protect the reputation of the two young ladies, let's say they only received my invitation to stay a night at the Ye Family Manor after leaving the palace yesterday. Today we can take them back to the city with great fanfare in a carriage. This will naturally break those rumors and shut their mouths."

She smiled again, "Now that Fourth Young Lady is still innocent, when we return to the city, she can privately explain things clearly with Fu Xunzhi. What do you think Ying?"

Gu Ying had nothing much to say. As long as Gu Shuang still wanted to marry him, she would unconditionally support all her decisions.

"It's just that I want to keep Mu Nanfeng and have him disguise himself to enter Bianjing to help me find that woman."

She had a hunch that this woman was definitely not simple. If they didn't find out who she was, there was no telling how much unseen danger there would be in the future.

She lurks in the dark and shows herself in the light. An open spear is easy to dodge, a hidden arrow is hard to defend against.

Zhao Changdu was silent for a moment, glancing coldly at Mu Nanfeng.

Mu Nanfeng innocently lowered his head like an obedient big dog squatting in the corner of the woodshed. "I have no objection to anything Madam Zhao decides..."

Zhao Changdu wanted to dissuade her, but Gu Ying smiled and said, "Du, you'll agree to what I want, right?"

Facing the smile in her bright eyes, the distinct black and white eyes, misty with water, staring pitifully at him, even his cold hard heart softened, and he reluctantly said, "I'll send two more people to secretly protect you. If he makes any strange moves, they'll kill him directly."

Gu Ying curled the corners of her lips. "Okay, listen to Du."

Only then did Zhao Changdu's handsome brows relax somewhat.

Mu Nanfeng: "......"

Qin happily watched the loving couple and turned to nudge Ye Qingchi. "Chi, what are you still dazing around for? Quick, get the carriage ready to go!"

That feeling of losing control welled up again. Ye Qingchi's thin lips tightened as he left the woodshed with a tense jaw.

He didn't know why, but his feet brought him to stand outside Gu Shuang's room.

Today was a sunny day. Last night it had rained coldly on Luoxia Mountain for half the night and the ground was still a little damp. A row of green vines hung under the eaves. A lovely oriole perched on a branch, cocking its little head.

The window was slightly open, letting in a wisp of soft light into the room. Without needing to peer in, one could see the red sandalwood dressing table, bronze mirror, rouge and jewelry scattered inside, traces of a young lady everywhere.

This room was specially arranged by his mother for her daughter-in-law. She had bought this manor, and was always nagging him and his father that when he got married, their family of four could come here to relax and enjoy themselves for a few days.

And now, Gu Shuang was staying inside.

Ye Qingchi didn't know what he was thinking. He only knew that in many long sleepless nights, Gu Shuang's shadow had appeared in his dreams.

She was dressed in a red bridal gown, sitting on the big red canopy bed waiting for him, as obedient and sensible as she always was.

Drunk, he staggered into the bridal chamber, lifting her veil under the candlelight. 𝗳re𝗲𝚠e𝐛n𝗼v𝗲l.c𝐨𝐦

When her trembling eyes looked up at him, he lowered his head to kiss her soft lips.

She was extremely shy, her gentle doe-like eyes filled with a misty fog, as she timidly raised her hands to untie his belt for him.
