Chapter 5 Mysterious Backer

"Yes, it seems to be a bit of a coincidence."

Shen Xiao was stunned for a moment, then returned to normal.

The meeting between the two seems to have been anticipated.

Ji Chuyan's arrival here was obviously not a coincidence.

"You and I are just destined for each other. We cannot miss such a lively place."

Regardless of the other people in the courtyard, Ji Chuyan smiled faintly at Shen Xiao.

Shen Xiao saw through that Ji Chuyan sent someone to follow him, and Ji Chuyan admitted it openly.

Although the two only met a few times, they had a deep relationship with each other.

When Ji Chuyan said this, the atmosphere suddenly changed.

"Chen Xiao, you piece of shit, you have been paralyzed for these years, and not long after you recovered, you are still looking for other women behind your back!"

"Chu Lang, you must deal with this pair of adulterers and adulterers."

Zhao Guixia shouted and acted coquettishly towards Chu Wenbo.

Seeing Shen Xiao's recovery, Zhao Guixia felt suddenly nervous for some reason.

Why did Shen Xiao suddenly recover?

Why was there another woman following Shen Xiao? This made Zhao Guixia very annoyed.

"shut up!"

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Chu Wenbo signaled Zhao Guixia to shut up.

After scanning the people in the courtyard, Chu Wenbo packed up his clothes and took a deep look at Ji Chuyan: "I wonder who this lady is?"

Chu Wenbo was very cautious and wanted to find out the identity of the woman in front of him.

After all, Chu Wenbo is not stupid. He has a father who is a county magistrate, so Chu Wenbo has some vision.

Just the fabric of the other party's clothes is worth fifty taels of silver, not to mention the cost of handiwork.

Coupled with these powerful servants, Chu Wenbo did not dare to make any mistakes.

Even if the other party is just the daughter of a senior official in the state capital, Chu Wenbo is not something that Chu Wenbo can easily offend.

"The clothes are embroidered with stone characters. These servants are also good craftsmen. They should be the young ladies from the chief envoy's family in that state?"

"The Shen family has a lot of property, but to offend such a person..."

Chu Wenbo thought about it in his mind and concluded that the woman in front of him was unusual.

Capturing Zhao Guixia and dealing with Shen Xiao was actually Chu Wenbo coveting the Shen family property.

Now Shen Xiao is not only recovering physically, but most importantly, he also has a backer of unknown origin.

After this, Chu Wenbo had already backed down, and at least he could not conflict with the other party face to face.

"Even your father can't ask this, so you deserve to ask!"

Behind Ji Chuyan, the leading servant sneered, and several servants gathered around him.

When dealing with a county magistrate, it is impossible to let your own lady speak a second time.

"you……"

Zhao Guixia suddenly became furious and wanted to say something.

Chu Wenbo sneered: "Okay, if that's the case, it doesn't mean that Chu doesn't understand the rules!"

"If you don't know what happens next, you won't be surprised. Let's go!"

After saying this, Chu Wenbo took a breath and left directly with his men.

When Chu Wenbo said this, he had no confidence at all, and his face looked as suffocated as a purple eggplant.

After all, Chu Wenbo has never been so humiliated before in his entire life.

Now that he didn't know the backing of the woman in front of him, Chu Wenbo could only take the first step.

"Shen Xiaojun is so lucky, it seems that things are in some trouble!"

Chu Wenbo looked gloomy and felt extremely stressed.

At this moment, the strengths and weaknesses of both sides seemed to have completely changed, and Chu Wenbo's original advantage was gone.

Chu Wenbo was shocked when Shen Xiao, who was supposed to be dead, appeared. There was someone standing up for Shen Xiao, which Chu Wenbo couldn't imagine!

"Chu Lang, you..."

Zhao Guixia wanted to say something else, but Chu Wenbo didn't look back and completely gave up on Zhao Guixia.

After Chu Wenbo left, Zhao Guixia suddenly lost her previous momentum.

After all, Shen Xiao has several servants behind him.

"Chen Xiao, now that you are on the mountain, don't forget our love as husband and wife!"

At this moment, Zhao Guixia was smiling, but her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Shen Xiao was not killed last time. This time when Shen Xiao came back, Zhao Guixia understood that the conflict between the two parties could not be resolved.

It's just that with Chu Wenbo's support last time, Zhao Guixia easily dealt with Shen Xiao.

Now that Chu Wenbo is pretending to be a grandson and chooses to leave here, who else can Zhao Guixia rely on?

"I won't ask for any other benefits from you, but the house and shop under the Shen family's name will be regarded as your compensation. I will sell these things later."

"Looking at how you are now, I'm afraid you don't need a lot of gold and silver, haha..."

Zhao Guixia pretended to be calm and dropped these words, sneered and left here.

Chu Wenbo had already left, and Zhao Guixia really didn't dare to stay.

But Zhao Guixia was really overjoyed. After all, the Shen family's property had quietly changed owners over the years.

Even if Shen Xiao comes back, it will not be easy to take away these properties.

"Suyun, take Chunlan down to heal her injuries!"

Ji Chuyan asked his maid to take Chunlan to heal her injuries.

As a result, Shen Xiao's eyes towards Ji Chuyan were softer.

"It seems that Mr. Shen's family affairs are not so easy to handle."

When Chunlan was helped down, Ji Chuyan said again.

On the one hand, Shen Xiao saved Ji Chuyan, and Ji Chuyan wanted to repay his kindness.

On the other hand, Shen Xiao is so mysterious. Ji Chuyan is very curious about the mysterious Shen Xiao.

"Ms. Ji said it well. It is indeed a family matter. Although it is a little difficult, it is not irreconcilable."

Shen Xiao nodded and agreed with Ji Chuyan's words that this was considered a 'family matter'.

After Ji Chuyan said this, Shen Xiao took advantage of the opportunity to refuse Ji Chuyan's help.

In fact, Shen Xiao knew very well that if Ji Chuyan opened his mouth, not to mention the Shen family's property, even Chu Wenbo and Chu Wenbo's county magistrate, I, would be destroyed in an instant.

But if Shen Xiao asks Ji Chuyan for help, he will owe a big favor in the future.

There is no need for Shen Xiao to create unnecessary complications for things that are within his power.

"In this case, it seems that there will be a good show in this small county..."

A strange color flashed in Ji Chuyan's eyes, and she did not expect that Shen Xiao would refuse like this.

Shen Xiao's character is not necessarily willing to accept help, Ji Chuyan expected it.

But Shen Xiao directly rejected Ji Chuyan's opportunity to cooperate. Shen Xiao made Ji Chuyan even more interested.

This proves that Shen Xiao has quickly calculated everything in his mind.

"If I lose something at home, I naturally have to look for it slowly."

Shen Xiao said lightly that there was no need to discuss this matter.

Whether Ji Chuyan has good intentions at the moment or has other plans, Shen Xiao will not take the bait at the moment.

As long as Shen Xiao takes the bait, I'm afraid the young lady behind won't leave easily.

Shen Xiao was very suspicious of what the Ji family was going to do.

Even if Shen Xiao helps Ji Chuyan treat his illness, it can be regarded as repaying the kindness.

But after all, when the Ji family rescued Shen Xiao, Shen Xiao was almost like a useless person.

"It's really good to be so cautious. No wonder grandpa likes him!"

Ji Chuyan became more and more satisfied with Shen Xiao. Shen Xiao's caution and Shen Xiao's confidence made Ji Chuyan understand that Shen Xiao definitely had other secrets.

"In that case, why don't we discuss the marriage contract between you and me!"
