After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 43

An Jiuxi: "I didn't go to university."

Chi Anruo was taken aback for a moment, then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't know... But Miss An, you don't need to feel inferior. Since you're about to become Aze's fiancée, I'm sure Grandpa Jin will soon arrange for you to study at a prestigious university for a while."

An Jiuxi understood.

This is implying that she is not good enough for Jin Yize.

She smiled and said, "I'm not interested in going to college."

She has already learned everything she should and shouldn't have learned, so going to university would be a complete waste of time.

Instead of wasting her energy, she should find a way to earn more money and pay off her master's debts.

Chi Anruo, however, took it as her trying to save face and smiled gently, "But people of Aze's and my status need partners with a certain level of refinement and knowledge. Otherwise... it might bring unnecessary trouble to the family!"

His words conveyed a sense of superiority and arrogance.

Although not a single word was meant to belittle An Jiuxi, every single word and sentence was derogatory.

The man, who hadn't spoken until now, lazily raised his eyes and met Chi Anruo's gaze.

"I will naturally protect my people; you don't need to worry about them!"

A simple sentence was enough to change Chi Anruo's expression.

That faint sense of superiority almost made him lose his composure.

Is he protecting An Jiuxi?

He was actually protecting her.

He was clearly indifferent to everyone, except for being slightly closer to Lu Huaisang—that was only because Lu Huaisang protected him, and trust was essential. Even with Old Master Jin, he maintained a cold and indifferent attitude.

Why is he different towards this woman?

Chi Anruo gritted her teeth so hard they almost broke, but her face showed great hurt as she said, "Aze, I'm just stating the facts. You are the only son of the Jin family, and you will be in charge of the entire Jin family in the future. As your wife, I will inevitably have to attend various important banquets and social events with you. If Miss Anruo doesn't understand anything, she will not only be unable to help you, but may even hold you back!"

Jin Yize's eyes turned cold. "It's none of your business!"

“Aze…”

Jin Yize looked at her coldly.

Chi Anruo gritted her teeth, but ultimately didn't dare to say anything more.

An Jiuxi, however, looked at Jin Yize with a strange expression in her eyes.

She didn't seem to care about Chi Anruo's mild and innocuous sarcasm.

People can say whatever they want; it's none of her business.

She believes that time will tell.

I just didn't expect Jin Yize to defend her like this.

Aside from her grandmother and her master, he was the only person who would protect her regardless of the reason.

why?

Because she can remove the curse on him and make him stand up again?

probably!

An Jiuxi clicked her tongue, breaking the tense atmosphere, "Let's go, let's deal with Chi Beimu's matter first."

Chi Beimu is in the teaching affairs office.

A student's disappearance is no small matter. The school immediately called the police. After the police arrived and understood the situation, they needed to take Chi Beimu back to the police station for a detailed investigation. Because of his special status, the school called his family to obtain their consent.

Otherwise, if things escalate and the school makes a scene, they'll be in deep trouble!

When An Jiuxi and the others arrived, the school leaders and the police officers who came to investigate were all there.

When Chi Beimu saw Jin Yize and An Jiuxi enter with Chi Anruo, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and he narrowed his eyes slightly behind his glasses.

"Uncle, what brings you here?"

Chi Anruo explained first, "On my way here, I happened to run into Aze and Miss An. Aze was worried about you, so he came with me."

It must be said that, if not targeting An Jiuxi, Chi Anruo's words are quite pleasing to the ear.

Chi Beimu didn't believe Jin Yize's nonsense about worrying about him. His uncle was cold and aloof, and didn't even respect his maternal grandfather, let alone him, who was separated by blood.
