Chapter 5 Robbing the Fiancée
Chapter 5 Robbing the Fiancée
From the moment he saw Gu Hewang and thought of Gu Baoxia, scenes of the original owner giving her gifts appeared in his mind, one after another, like a collection of gifts.
On his way here, he carefully searched for scenes of the original owner giving gifts, which is why he was able to recite all the gifts from the past three years in one go.
Gu Baoxia exhaled and exhaled repeatedly for quite a while. Shameless, utterly shameless.
It was given to her, and now she wants it back—shameless. Threatening her, and instead of feeling ashamed, she feels proud—shameless.
"You're shameless!" Gu Baoxia spat through gritted teeth.
I misjudged him, I really misjudged him. I thought he was easy to manipulate, but I never expected him to be such a shameless scoundrel.
Lu Yuanqing said that as long as it fills their stomachs, shamelessness is shameless. "Tomorrow night, I will go to the Gu family's old house to carry 200 catties of grain."
"Two hundred jin is impossible, one hundred jin!" Gu Baoxia gritted her teeth, wishing she could bite the person in front of her to death.
"One hundred and fifty jin."
"Only a hundred, we really don't have that much grain." I really want to skin her dry!
"One hundred catties of grain, plus a can of malted milk powder!" The malted milk powder was sent to the twins by the second brother last month, but the original owner of this body had a brain fart and gave it to Gu Baoxia. She was so careful, she definitely didn't finish it.
Gu Baoxia clenched her fists, wanting to punch the shameless man in front of her, but now that Lu Yuanqing was in power, if she hit him, she was afraid he would extort money from her again, so she could only suppress her anger.
"Deal!" Gu Baoxia was heartbroken. "Move the grain tomorrow night, now get out of here."
The place where she hid the grain was discovered by that scoundrel Lu Yuanqing, so she had to find a way to move it.
Feeling utterly disgusted, Lu Yuanqing ignored her dark expression and hummed a little tune as he quickly left.
One hundred catties of grain relieved the Lu family's urgent need.
Gu Baoxia was so angry that she couldn't sleep tonight, but Lu Yuanqing slept soundly until dawn without having a single dream.
Even when he's at work, he's always smiling, and anyone who sees him can tell he's in a great mood.
"Third Brother, you've been gathering grain? You seem so happy?" Lu Yuanbo, who was working with him today, asked curiously.
"How did you know?" Lu Yuanqing grinned, his smile wide.
"They really picked up grain? That's a lie!"
Lu Yuanqing didn't explain, but instead wore a mysterious expression and said, "You'll come with me to pick them up tonight."
Lu Yuanbo shook his head, feeling that his third brother, who had regained his spirits, was like a completely different person. The third brother used to stand hunched over, not liking to talk to people.
Now, this one has a straight back and a very expressive face; he's either frowning or grinning, like a fool.
"I have something to do tonight, you can pick it up yourself!" Gu Hewang kept glancing in his direction, wanting a definite answer from him.
Looking at his third brother, who was laughing like a fool, Lu Yuanbo felt deeply that the burden of supporting the family still rested on his shoulders alone.
If he doesn't come up with a solution, there's really no one he can rely on.
"Where are you going tonight?" Lu Yuanqing asked.
"Something's up!" Lu Yuanbo turned his back.
"What is it?" Lu Yuanqing pressed for details.
Nonsense, he can't carry 100 jin of grain back; he'll need to find a helper.
"Ugh, you're so annoying. I already said I have something to do, something to do, so don't ask anymore." Lu Yuanbo had no patience and didn't want to talk about it.
Lu Yuanqing laughed in exasperation. This brat has such a temper, no patience at all. "Are you sure you want to go take care of your business tonight? Aren't you coming with me to gather grain?"
Lu Yuanqing looked around. The people closest to them were all some distance away from the brothers, so just as Lu Yuanbo was about to say something, he leaned closer and whispered, "Your future sister-in-law is preparing to send me some food. We'll go get it tonight!"
It's best not to reveal the truth, threaten your fiancée, or ruin your image.
Lu Yuanbo was shocked, "Third Brother, are you serious?"
Will the future sister-in-law deliver food to them?
So where did Gu Baoxia get her food?
Lu Yuanbo seemed to realize something and suddenly shuddered, remembering that Gu Hewang insisted on dragging him to that place!
and so……
Do all members of the Gu family enjoy extreme challenges? The more dangerous the place, the more they want to go.
However, he also dismissed his doubts. If Gu Baoxia really went to that place, there might actually be food to help them.
"Brother, your wife treats you very well!" Lu Yuanbo exclaimed.
At such a young age, he had already experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships. Those who helped him at this time were all benefactors of the Lu family.
Lu Guobin is, and so is Gu Baoxia!
"Hehe!" Lu Yuanqing chuckled dryly. Forget about having a sister-in-law.
If Gu Baoxia still agreed to the marriage after threatening him like that last night, she wouldn't be Gu Baoxia. It would be merciful not to retaliate against her.
“So you can’t go anywhere tonight, you’re coming with me to move the grain!” Lu Yuanqing said seriously.
“Okay!” Lu Yuanbo agreed immediately. With food already available, why would he risk his life? He wasn’t stupid.
As for Gu Hewang, let me know when we run into him.
Thump~ thump~ thump~
As the gong signaling the end of the workday sounded, Lu Yuanqing decisively stopped what he was doing, grabbed Lu Yuanbo, and ran off.
"Wait, Third Brother, wait a minute..." We still need to go find Gu Hewang!
"What are you waiting for? Let's go home, quick!" Lu Yuanqing was extremely excited and wouldn't let go at all.
We absolutely cannot let this guy go, otherwise he'll be the only one carrying the grain; we can't let go of the labor force.
And so, Lu Yuanbo was finally dragged home by Lu Yuanqing. Thinking that there was no rush, since he hadn't agreed to Gu Hewang's request today and couldn't wait for him, he went back.
After a light and watery dinner, Lu Yuanqing couldn't stop pacing around the house, waiting for nightfall.
As soon as it got dark, he took Lu Yuanbo to the Gu family's abandoned old house.
The Gu family's old house has been abandoned for many years. The roof has basically collapsed, leaving only a corner of the wall with a broken beam struggling to hold it up.
Lu Yuanqing thought that once they arrived at their destination, they would have to wait a while.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, Gu Baoxia was already there, with a gloomy face and cold eyes shooting a chilling light at Lu Yuanqing.
Lu Yuanbo's attention was focused on the two bags at Gu Baoxia's feet, each weighing about fifty pounds.
Lu Yuanbo's mouth dropped open. If there was any doubt left, seeing the grain now made it all clear. There was so much grain!
Is that place really that profitable?
"Sister-in-law, you sent us so much grain? Thank you so much!" Lu Yuanbo said sincerely.
Gu Baoxia, who had been taken advantage of, didn't feel his sincerity. Instead, she felt that he was mocking her. Angrily, she threw the malted milk powder in her hand into Lu Yuanqing's arms and coldly said, "Don't shout nonsense." She looked at Lu Yuanqing with unfriendly eyes and said, "We're even!"
"Mmm!" Lu Yuanqing suppressed his excitement and nodded.
"Hmph!" Gu Baoxia stormed off in a huff.
Lu Yuanbo asked, puzzled, "Is she angry?"
So, was this food truly given to them?
Lu Yuanqing slapped him on the back of the head. "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and move it home!"
If someone sees it, who knows what kind of trouble it might cause.
"Oh, right, right, right!" Lu Yuanbo realized what was happening, quickly shouldered a sack of grain, and followed Lu Yuanqing.
The two brothers, like thieves, kept their eyes and ears open as they carried the grain safely home.
As soon as Lu Yuanqing closed the door, he heard a mechanical voice.
"Ding! System successfully started!"
