Chapter 263 The Layman Who Adds Money
Gu Qianbei raised an eyebrow.
As expected, Guo Furong followed her original fate.
"By the way, I heard that Master Guo is going to have his disciple Zhuifeng marry Guo Furong."
It seems they're already choosing a date.
Manager Gu, why are you asking about this?
Do you know Guo Furong?
Oh, right! I heard that Guo Furong ran away from home a while ago and went to Qixia Town, where she met a man and secretly fell in love with him!
I was so envious when I heard that.
This is what the martial arts world is all about!
Hey, Manager Gu, you seem to be from Qixia Town too, right?
Could it be that the person Guo Furong likes is you?
Are you planning to steal the bride?
If that's the case, I'll definitely help!
I've wanted to do this for a long time.
As Yunluo talked, she got excited.
Those bright eyes were filled with longing.
Gu Qianbei was stunned when he heard this.
Goodness, that's quite an imagination.
Gu Qianbei stretched out his right hand and gently tapped Yun Luo's smooth forehead with his fingers.
"Ouch! Manager Gu, why did you hit me?"
Yunluo did not understand.
"Stop imagining, it's too scary."
I do know Guo Furong, but I'm not the person she likes.
The man she loved was a scholar who had also been granted the title of "Great Hero of Guanzhong" by the imperial court.
"Oh? I see."
"Wait! Will that great hero from Guanzhong come to steal the bride?"
Yunluo became excited again.
"He probably doesn't have the ability, and he might not even have the courage."
Gu Qianbei shook her head slightly.
Lu Xiucai is also a mysterious figure.
You could say he's timid, or you could say he's brave—he's certainly brave.
One can only say that he was an idealist with the integrity of a scholar, but also had a touch of pedantry.
"Huh? It's that bad?"
Yunluo looked disappointed.
"Everyone has their strengths. But he probably doesn't even know that Guo Furong is getting engaged."
"That's true. Not many people in the capital know about this."
If I hadn't loved hearing these kinds of news, I might not have known.
Shopkeeper Gu, do you think Guo Furong will abandon that great hero from Guanzhong and marry her senior brother?
Yunluo started gossiping.
Gu Qianbei smiled and shook his head.
"Based on my understanding of Guo Furong, if she doesn't want to do something, no one can force her to."
Perhaps this is an advantage he inherited from Guo Juxia.
"So that means she's definitely going to run away from the wedding?"
Yunluo's eyes lit up.
"What are you planning, looking at me like that?"
"Hehe, of course I hope that all lovers in the world will eventually be united in marriage!"
Manager Gu! I have something to do! I have to go now!
After saying that, Yunluo ran away.
Judging from her appearance, she's probably going to find Guo Furong.
"He's someone who loves to stir up trouble."
Gu Qianbei smiled and shook his head.
"I think you're that kind of person too, aren't you? Otherwise, why would you be saying these things to that little girl?"
Wanwan arrived nearby without knowing when, and seeing Yunluo leave, she landed next to Gu Qianbei.
"You found out."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"You rascal, you're full of bad intentions. Are you trying to help that Miss Guo and the great hero of Guanzhong?"
"I wouldn't say that. They would have gotten together even without my help."
How did you know?
Wanwan looked puzzled.
Gu Qianbei then leaned close to Wanwan's ear and said with a smile, "Because I can foresee the future."
Wanwan's ears tickled slightly, and she laughed, "You really know how to talk nonsense."
"So, can you predict what my future will be like?"
"Then naturally she'll marry me and live a happy life. Just like the ending of all beautiful stories."
"How shameless, Young Master Gu."
Wanwan smiled and reached out her right hand to touch Gu Qianbei's cheek.
"But seeing how handsome you are, I don't think I'm at a disadvantage."
If that's really how it ends, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
When are two people in love happiest?
It wasn't when we were actually together, but rather during the ambiguous period when we were about to get together.
Both sides knew what the other meant, but neither dared to reveal their true intentions.
Three more days of such wonderful days passed.
Gu Qianbei and Wanwan are preparing to return to the number one manor in the world.
Because the Bai Mai Hui Yuan Wine is almost ready.
"Let's go back to the estate and open some wine. My injury should be almost healed by now."
"it is good."
Wanwan naturally took this very seriously.
After all, she had seen Gu Qianbei's injuries and felt quite distressed.
If she recovers soon, she can finally put her mind at ease.
As the two walked down the streets of the capital, they suddenly spotted two people entangled in a quiet corner.
One of them was Jin Yichuan, the Imperial Guard whom they had met before.
The other person was carrying a Miao sword; judging from his build, he was a skilled fighter.
"Could it be the lay Buddhist who asks for extra money?"
Gu Qianbei found this scene amusing.
"What's wrong?"
Noticing Gu Qianbei's gaze, Wanwan asked curiously.
"If I run into someone I know, I'll go say hello. You wait here for me."
"it is good."
Wanwan did not object upon hearing this, but simply remained quietly in place.
Gu Qianbei, on the other hand, walked to the street corner.
"Don't think that just because you're wearing this flying fish uniform you've really become a soldier. I'll tell you a secret, and I'll eat you alive for the rest of my life!"
Ding Xiu looked at Jin Yichuan and smiled coldly, but his expression was quite complicated as he turned away.
As Gu Qianbei walked towards him, his expression darkened.
"When did this guy get here? Did he hear something he shouldn't have?"
Ding Xiu immediately became nervous for Jin Yichuan.
I was sure I was on guard all around; there shouldn't be anyone there.
"Brother Jin! What a coincidence!"
Gu Qianbei didn't greet Ding Xiu, but instead looked at Jin Yichuan and said with a smile.
"Manager Gu, what are you doing here?"
Jin Yichuan was startled when he saw this and quickly went up to greet him.
"I was just passing by and saw you, so I came over to see who this is?"
Gu Qianbei looked at Ding Xiu.
"This is my fellow villager who came to ask me for help."
Out of consideration for our shared hometown, I gave him some money.
Jin Yichuan reacted quickly and immediately smoothed things over.
"I see. I thought he was your senior brother."
Gu Qianbei said with a smile.
As soon as he said this, both Jin Yichuan and Ding Xiu's expressions changed.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
Ding Xiu said coldly.
Upon hearing Ding Xiu's tone, Jin Yichuan instantly understood what the other party was thinking.
He's plotting to kill someone to silence them.
But Jin Yichuan knew Gu Qianbei's strength. Although Ding Xiu was stronger than him, he was no match for Gu Qianbei.
He still remembered how Gu Qianbei had killed Cao Shaoqin with a single sword strike.
"Senior brother! Don't do anything reckless!"
Jin Yichuan quickly stepped in front of Ding Xiu and pinned him down.
"What? You're soft-hearted? You don't want to kill? He knows who you are. If you don't kill him, you'll be the one who dies!"
Ding Xiu scolded.
