Although it is legal for the country to buy and sell people, the contract of sale is fixed, and the people bought and sold have nothing to do with the previous owner.

If you want to get benefits from the person you bought or sold because of your previous relationship, you are committing the crime of extortion.

Father Su obviously thought of this too.

Although he was unwilling to let go of Su Xiaomu, a man full of wealth, he was really wary of Gu Jingcheng's existence.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at him and hesitated for a long time, and finally left angrily.

After seeing Su Daddy off, the two of them stood at the door, and the atmosphere suddenly became very subtle.

And now Gu Jingcheng also felt that his mood was very subtle.

In the past, when she used him as an excuse, he was always angry and disgusted.

But now she used him as an excuse, and not only was he not angry, he was also very happy.

Su Xiaomu didn't know that Gu Jingcheng would have such strange thoughts in his heart.

She originally thought that after getting rid of Gu Jingcheng, she could live her own life comfortably in Fucheng, but now it seems that her idea is impossible to realize.

Not only can she no longer stay in Fucheng, she also has to find a way to find another place to make a living on her own.

Having her vampire-like father and relatives here will undoubtedly cause her a lot of trouble, and it's not safe either.

Su Xiaomu couldn't help but get angry when she thought that all the preparations she had done in Fucheng these days had failed.

Just when she looked ugly and was thinking frantically in her mind about what to do next, Gu Jingcheng suddenly took her hand and walked to the carriage.

He also closed the carriage door tightly and told her not to stay by the window.

"you?"

Su Xiaomu was immediately confused by his sudden pull, and she looked at him in confusion.

His actions were so rude and reckless. Could it be that he didn't say goodbye enough down there just now, so he asked her to come up and say goodbye to him again?

"Your father is watching you from the side now. If you don't come with me, I'm afraid he will try his best to pester you later. I don't care, I just don't know if you still want to break up with him.

without."

Gu Jingcheng leaned against the wall of the carriage and spoke to her calmly, "I won't force you. If you don't want to, you can get off now."

"Forget it, forget it, I will go back with you when I go back.

Anyway, I miss my mother and sister-in-law. Ruotong Ruonan and my children haven’t seen me for a long time, so I don’t know how much they miss me.”

Su Xiaomu sat up straight and replied to him with an extremely serious expression.

But in fact, her current mood is really complicated and subtle.

After making so many preparations and spending so much money, she gained nothing in the end.

She was so angry that she felt depressed, but she didn't want Gu Jingcheng to see it and stay sulky alone.

I really hate some relatives who have no sense of boundaries, especially when they are both shameless and shameless.

The carriage swayed toward home, and Su Xiaomu leaned against the window without moving. Except when she had to get out of the car to rest every night, she didn't give him a single extra glance.

But Gu Jingcheng was not angry at all, but was very patient with her along the way.

"No matter what, you should be in a better mood. If nothing happens, we will be home tomorrow. Then you can have a good rest and forget all the unpleasant things in Fucheng."

He helped her out of the carriage and spoke to her softly, with gentleness in his eyebrows.

"We can watch the lantern parade here again tonight. Can I buy you a rabbit lantern and a moon lantern this time?"

Maybe he spoke very softly, so softly that she had to go see him, but she felt unbalanced and wanted to stab him.

"What about you? Can you forget it too? Lin Yin plotted against you so much that you suffered a lot in Fucheng and lost a lot of face."

She used her superficial understanding of Gu Jingcheng.

She didn't think he was a person who could easily swallow the resentment of being bullied by others.

It's like this now, probably because...

Tell her to go home quickly with him?

She didn't want to speculate on him with such malice, but that seemed to be the case now.

"As a woman, she has already paid a heavy price for what she has done, so why should I bother with her anymore?

Under such current circumstances, she can't get any worse in a short time, and comparing her with me..."

He paused: "Just think of me as being more tolerant."

"You are a good person, but I am narrow-minded." Su Xiaomu was speechless and choked at this moment.

"Okay, there are no good or bad people between you and me. Li Zhen is ahead of you. Just pack up and get off the car. I will accompany you whatever you want to eat today."

He put the unfinished book in his hand back into the basket, got off the carriage first, and then stretched out his hand towards her.

But Su Xiaomu didn't want to have such close physical contact with him, so she grabbed her skirt and jumped down happily.

She walked up to him, her voice still filled with some unpleasantness.

"Then we have agreed that you will buy me lanterns and delicious food."

"Okay, it's up to you. We'll buy whatever you want."

He walked behind her, looking at her slender back, his eyes so soft that they seemed to have crushed the moonlight.

Hanging out with him at the lantern party in Li Town again, Su Xiaomu's state of mind was really very different from before.

Her hands were filled with all kinds of lanterns, and Gu Jingcheng was holding a lot of snacks next to her.

The whole town was filled with a joyful and lively atmosphere at this moment.

They found a less crowded corner by the river, put the lanterns with wishes written on them into the river, and watched them go away and gradually disappear before their eyes.

Looking at the lanterns all over the river at this time, thousands of them look like the bright moon and stars floating in the Milky Way, their brilliance blending with the sea.

"The wish I made last time." The breeze blew away the hair covering her cheeks, revealing her gentle and delicate eyebrows. "Only half of it came true. What about you?"

"It's all come true."

"I didn't believe in this before, but after this time, I feel that sometimes it is a good way to rely on gods and Buddhas for things that are beyond human power."

He replied to her and put the still-warm cake to her mouth: "Which half did you achieve?"

"With freedom, you can fly freely between heaven and earth."

Su Xiaomu turned her face away and was not in the mood to eat the cake. Now she didn't even have the intention to hang out, so she got up and went to the inn.

Su Xiaomu was in a bad mood all the way back.

After leaving Li Town, although the coachman slowed down to make them sit more smoothly in the carriage, he still rode the sunset to the village.

Probably because the people who came back to report the good news were a day or two ahead of them.

As soon as Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng got off the carriage, they noticed that the village was extremely lively.

All the villagers stood outside from the entrance of the village, their faces beaming with joy. The expressions on their faces became even more excited when they saw Gu Jingcheng.

Especially the village chief, whose face turned red with joy. He immediately took Gu Jingcheng's hand and held it tightly, refusing to let go even as his hands trembled.

"Okay! Jingcheng, you are really good! Jieyuan! You are the only Jieyuan in our village over the years!"

"People in the nearby villages now say that our village is very lucky. Although there are fewer people studying than them, you can live up to your expectations.

I don’t know how much better than they were in the exam. Do you know who is that in the next village?

We went to Fucheng together with you, but he came back much earlier than you. According to them, he did very poorly in the exam and didn't even make the list!"
