The enchanting beauty is pregnant, and the heirless male protagonist is overjoyed!

She narrowed her eyes and asked sinisterly, "Tongzi, after completing so many tasks, don't you have the ability to choose a good time to enter?"

The system pointed at its fingers and laughed.

[Ahem, well, I knew the host had water-repellent beads that could be used, so I chose this time.]

Afraid that this would not calm her down, the system quickly added another explanation.

[This time point is the best. The target of the mission, Pei Qinyu, was also assassinated and fell into the sea today. Because of the serious injuries, he soaked in the sea water for too long.]

[Although he did not die, he was left with a chronic illness and extremely poor health. He was childless and died at the age of 37.]

[Now you have a chance to save the handsome man and get close to him. Otherwise, it would be difficult for you to get in touch with the crown prince with your current status.]

Gu Yunyan nodded. Indeed, her current identity was the only daughter of the Gu family, a merchant family in Jiangnan Prefecture.

The parents were very loving, but Mrs. Gu had an unexpected difficult delivery when she gave birth to her original body.

As a result, her body was severely damaged and she could no longer have children. Master Gu loved his wife and daughter, and no matter what people said, he would not take a concubine, not even a maid to warm his bed.

Therefore, Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu doted on the original body and decided early on to let the original body find a son-in-law in the future.

They would give the original person whatever he wanted, and if he couldn't get what he wanted, they would double the compensation with other things. This made the original person selfish and arrogant, and he would ask people to do whatever he wanted immediately.

Otherwise he would lose his temper and whip his servants.

If the master's idea had really been followed, the original body would have lived a good life at least, and would not have fallen into the sea and died at such a young age.

It's a pity that it's a pity.

Mr. Gu has an older brother. Uncle Gu is still a farmer and his family is not well off. After Mr. Gu became rich, he brought their entire family to live with him.

I lived there for more than ten years.

Uncle Gu's family consists of six people, including his wife, their eldest son, their eldest daughter, a pair of twins, and their youngest son and daughter. The whole family treats Mr. Gu's property as their own.

The original body wanted to stay at home and find a son-in-law?

There was no way they would agree. The idea of ​​sea fishing was originally suggested by my eldest cousin.

The original body's death by falling into the sea was also their doing.

After her death, she realized that this was all the plot of Uncle Gu's family. They not only killed her, but also killed Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu, and took away all the property of the Gu family.

All this is just because she doesn't have a biological brother and her parents don't have a biological son.

[So, host, one of the original body's wishes was to drive away Uncle Gu's family, to avenge them, to make them poor and destitute, to live a miserable life, and finally to die miserably.]

[Another reason is that I want to have a biological brother, so that the Gu family can have an heir and not be wiped out.]

"Okay, I get it. You'd better tell me where Pei Qinyu is." As he spoke, a golden whip appeared out of thin air in Gu Yunyan's hand.

It exudes a unique luster, and you can tell at first glance that it is a good whip.

This is a whip disguised as a Ruyi retractable rope. It is stronger than weapons made of fine iron in this world. It is impervious to water and fire, and cannot be cut by swords, spears, swords, or axes.

The system's green eyes widened into small yellow beans, and she slapped her head and shouted.

[I almost forgot. Fortunately, the host reminded me that Pei Qinyu is still fighting with the assassin on the boat. Host, please follow the map I marked and rush over. You can just catch up with him jumping into the sea.]

A red route appeared in Gu Yunyan's mind, and the end point was a big red dot, indicating the target.

She tied the whip around her waist.

The whip should have been wrapped around two and a half times, but it was wrapped around three times. You can imagine how slender the waist of this body is.

Apart from her thin waist and greatly reduced height, she was quite tall in the previous world.

And now, she lowered her eyes and glanced.

Except that her breasts are much more choppy, she is like a junior high school girl in the modern world, petite and with a hot body, a loli.

Halfway through the swim.

She saw a two-story official ship a few hundred meters away, burning fiercely.

Under the light of the fire.

Gu Yunyan clearly saw countless red blood splattered on the wood that had not yet burned out, and dead bodies lying all over the deck.

She could smell a burning smell even from this distance.

And the big red dot marked on the system map is actually drifting?!

The speed is getting faster and faster, and getting farther and farther away from her! ?

What's going on?! Is she not dizzy?! Then can she still be a heroine and repay the favor by saving her life?

in system space.

The white ball kept bouncing, and she saw the dot floating farther and farther away, and was about to float out of her scanning range. She wished she could jump out and grab Pei Qinyu back and throw her into the host's arms.

The first thing that came out of her mouth was urging.

[Host, please stop looking at him. He is lying on a broken board. Go up and catch him. No, go and save him!]

[If you don't go now, the person will drift away and be rescued by others! ]

In the life before she came, Pei Qinyu was rescued by the daughter of a fisherman in a fishing village. Later, he gave a lot of money to the fisherman's family before returning to the capital.

This is to repay them for saving my life.

Gu Yunyan retracted her gaze and walked faster. She could only say sorry to the fisherwoman and her family, and she would definitely repay their life-saving grace in this life.

But she will compensate them, give them money, and help them find a good job.

It was getting dark.

The moon quietly hangs in the Milky Way, reflecting the glittering and jagged surface of the sea. In the dim night, the boundless sea is like a beast that devours people.

It makes people feel frightened and fall into endless panic.

She pulled out the whip wrapped around her waist, swung it around Pei Qinyu's waist, and pulled her into her arms.

Feeling his weak heartbeat, Gu Yunyan curled her lips and said, "Huh, luckily I made it in time."

Pei Qinyu's thick sword-like eyebrows slanted into her temples and were furrowed tightly.

With her lips tightly pursed and the sword tightly grasped in her hand, she pried his fingers apart, trying to take the sword off.

Unexpectedly, he could hold it tighter and tighter even when he was unconscious! ?

She simply thought about it and put the sword into the space.

As the sword disappeared, a homemade life-saving pill mixed with spiritual spring water appeared in her hand.

Gu Yunyan pinched his cheeks and easily made him open his lips.

She took the opportunity to stuff the life-saving pill into his mouth, forcing him to swallow it, and asked the system: "Where is the nearest village?"

He can't just stay in the sea forever, he needs to find a place to recuperate.

Besides, she had to hurry back to the Gu family to deal with Uncle Gu's family and protect the safety of Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu.

After a few seconds, the system grinned.

[Okay, host, the system map has been updated. You can swim to the nearest fishing village by following the route. ]

Gu Yunyan glanced inward at the map in her mind.

After determining the direction, he put a pink and blue lifebuoy on Pei Qinyu, held the whip handle tightly and dragged Pei Qinyu to the left.

......

At this time, the Gu family was under the same night sky with her.

The two-story house was brightly lit. Madam Gu lay in Mr. Gu's arms, crying and sobbing.

"Yan'er, my Yan'er!"

"Master, you must find Yan'er back. I can't live without Yan'er and my daughter."

----

Although Master Gu did not cry, his eyes were red. He gently patted his wife's back and said softly, "Don't worry, Madam. Yan'er is a lucky person. She will be fine."

"I have already hired many people to look for Yan'er. She will come back safely."

With his firm words, Mrs. Gu felt better, and suddenly she said firmly, "Yes, Yan'er is blessed with a good life, she will definitely come back safely."

"Find a husband who will obey her in everything, give birth to two grandchildren in the future, and stay with us happily and healthily for the rest of our lives."

She gradually stopped crying, but her eyes were still red and swollen.

Mr. Gu's eyes were filled with heartache, mixed with worry for his daughter. In just one hour, blisters appeared in his mouth.

The fire in my heart was rising rapidly, and my head was aching as well.

As soon as he heard the news that his daughter fell into the sea and could not be found, his heart sank to the bottom of the water.

The year my daughter was born.

A wandering monk passed by the door. He kindly gave him some silver and treated him to delicious food.

However, he said that his daughter would face a fatal disaster when she was fifteen, and if she failed to survive it, she would have to die.

Once you cross it, you will live a life of wealth and glory.

He immediately turned his face black and ordered his servants to drive the monk away: "Nonsense, nonsense! My precious daughter was born in my Gu family and was destined to enjoy a lifetime of happiness!"

The monk was not angry.

He just repeatedly told him to pay attention to these things, shook his head and sighed before leaving. He never saw the monk that day again.

But now: "Could it be...that what he said is true?!"

Madam Gu looked up at him with a questioning look on her face: "Master, what are you talking about?"

Hearing her question, Master Gu came out of his memories and realized that he had accidentally spoken out the doubts in his heart.

He wiped her tears gently and shook his head calmly: "Nothing."

It is better not to let the Madam know about this, lest she will be even more devastated after knowing it.

Mrs. Gu was fooled by him and didn't ask any further questions.

She just turned her head slightly and saw the cream-yellow osmanthus crispy cake on the table.

That is my daughter’s favorite pastry since she was a child.

The food on the table was prepared by the kitchen at her request, and she would eat it when her daughter came back.

Now, now.

She instantly thought of her daughter who had fallen into the sea and was unknown whether she was alive or dead. The sky, which had just cleared up after the rain, turned cloudy with light rain and she began to cry.

This made Mr. Gu hold back his tears and shed them silently. The couple felt very sad.

The couple felt deeply saddened.

Uncle Gu and Gu Changcun, who lived in the side courtyard, were so excited that they couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.

Uncle Gu was only wearing a white shirt and trousers.

He walked back and forth on the ground with disheveled hair, his eyes were surprisingly bright.

"Changcun, did Gu Yunyan really fall into the sea and die? Your second uncle's property will belong to our family from now on?"

Gu Changcun raised the corners of his mouth and nodded with a subtle smile.

"Dad, everything Gu Yunyan drinks, eats, wears and uses contains drugs. I bought that drug from a classmate whose family runs a clinic. It's enough to make a cow faint."

"Gu Yunyan fell into the sea unconscious. How could she not sink to the bottom of the sea?"

These words made Uncle Gu's beard start to tremble. He wanted to laugh out loud, but was afraid that the servants outside would hear him and let Master Gu know. The expression on his face was distorted.

He looked at Gu Changcun and repeated in a low voice.

"Good, good, great! Changcun, your education has not been in vain, the solution you came up with is great."

"In the future, the Gu family's store will definitely be expanded in your hands and make more money. Maybe our Gu family can become the richest in Jiangnan and become a royal merchant. You are a hundred times better than your second uncle who doesn't know how to work hard to make money and only knows how to hang around women."

"He is a grown man, and he is not without money, but he only keeps his wife, who has only one daughter, and doesn't even think of taking a concubine to have a son."

"My brain is broken."

Uncle Gu spoke with disdain, his face full of sarcasm and contempt, but deep in his eyes there was envy, jealousy and hatred.

The smile on Gu Changcun's face deepened, and he agreed with his words from the bottom of his heart.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke modestly: "No, no, I am where I am today because of your good teaching. Without you, how could I be where I am today?"

The father and son praised each other.

In their eyes, mouths and hearts, they are both smart and capable people.

Better than Mr. Gu who started from scratch.

After years of hard work, he built up a considerable fortune in Jiangnan Prefecture. Now, more than ten or twenty years have passed.

The capable people who can still stand are stronger.

No one knew what had given the father and son this illusion. If Gu Yunyan knew, she would only laugh at them for being conceited.

Unfortunately, she didn’t know and couldn’t laugh now.

She was looking up at the sky. As it got brighter, the bright and shining stars became scarcer, and the round and bright moon became dim and almost invisible.

Find out from the system.

It was exactly four o'clock in the morning, the hour of Yin. Gu Yunyan took Pei Qinyu swimming for more than an hour without stopping.

I am so tired that I am almost paralyzed. My hands and legs are so sore that I don’t want to move, but I have to move.

Because the small fishing village is still three or four kilometers away, looking forward, you can vaguely see the dark shadows of some houses.

The system seemed quite distressed and checked the information to comfort him.

[Host, it's four o'clock in the morning now. The fishermen have already started to come out of their homes to fish. Just wait here. When a fisherman passes by, give them some money and ask them to rescue you.]

Alas, it's the host's fault for wanting to save fairy stones to pay off his debts, so he can't bear to buy a teleportation talisman.

The energy in Gu Yunyan's heart was completely gone.

He put the handle into his belt, lay on his back, floated on the sea, and sighed deeply: "Great!"

It’s nice to have a good rest.

As she waited, her eyes closed unconsciously, her body sank, and her face immersed in the water floated on the sea.

"Ahem—!"

When a cough sounded, Pei Qinyu suddenly opened his eyes. The red figure in front of him made him look murderous.

His subconscious reaction was to raise his hand and wave it forward, but he waved it in vain?!

Pei Qinyu was stunned, his brows furrowed, looking at his calloused palms, the sword in his hand was gone? !

how come? !

There were times when he fainted on the battlefield, but his sword never left his hand, and no one could pry his hand open and take his sword away.

Where is the sword now? This thought flashed through his mind.

His gaze moved from his hand to the motionless red figure in front of him. Except for her body, her entire face was under the water.

Her face is ruddy and her expression is calm and gentle.

Her skin was as smooth as jade, and the rosy morning sun shining on her face made her look like a mermaid, not at all like someone who had been dead for a long time.

He was stunned and stopped looking at her.

Instead, he began to look around, wondering where he was and how to get out of here and back to the shore.

The system in the space secretly groaned.

Oh no! I failed to wake up the host in time. If the host suddenly opened his eyes and pretended to be dead, Pei Qinyu should be able to accept it, right?

She thought about it uncertainly.

Before she could figure it out, she scanned and saw a fishing boat approaching 500 meters away, and hurriedly reminded: [Host, wake up, there is a fishing boat coming! ]

Gu Yunyan opened her eyes in an instant, and a magnetic and deep male voice came to her ears.

"You're not dead?!"

Dead?? Who said she was dead? She was just sleeping, resting and recovering her strength!

No reaction required.

She instantly knew who was speaking. Who else could it be other than Pei Qinyu?

She tugged at the whip, her almond-shaped eyes widening.

She was no longer like the siren who was sleeping quietly and gently. Instead, she raised her chin high and looked at him, pouting her cherry lips.

"I am your savior, and that's how you call me savior? Do you want me to die?"

Pei Qinyu paused.

Looking at the handle in her hand, and following his gaze along the handle, he finally discovered the whip wrapped twice around her waist.

Thinking that it was indeed the woman in front of him who saved him, he frowned and shook his head.

"I don't mean that. Since the young lady is my savior, I will definitely repay her after I get ashore."

His eyes swept over her face and body.

Her ears turned red quietly, and she looked away with an unnatural look, not daring to look again.

"It is said in operas that a life-saving favor should be repaid with one's body. I want you to marry into my Gu family and be my husband." Gu Yunyan's eyes lit up and she made the request without any shame.

He is blatantly seeking repayment for a favor.
