In order to survive, she forced herself to have a happy ending with the yandere villain.

"This is all my money. When have you ever given me a single penny?"

"... "

After Qiao Wanwan finished speaking,

The surrounding air suddenly became quiet.

A crow flew overhead, cawing loudly.

The whole atmosphere became incredibly awkward.

The protagonist, Gu Chaomu, was so taken aback by the woman's blunt words that his smile completely vanished.

Isn't this just to explain to everyone...

Is Gu Chaomu a complete freeloader?

"puff!"

Suddenly, a voice couldn't help but burst out.

It turned out to be Zhong Shi, Xie Ze's butler. He couldn't help but chuckle, his old face turning quite red.

Xie Ze shot him a look, as if to warn him.

Zhong Shi trembled as he felt the young master's chill.

He immediately coughed lightly twice, then explained:

"Cough cough! Sorry, I accidentally choked on my own saliva."

"... "

Everyone could tell at a glance that what he said was a lie.

Gu Chaomu, who had been made a fool of, had just been humiliated by Qiao Wanwan.

She was even ridiculed by those around her, and her face instantly turned a deep purplish-red.

Staring at the woman who had humiliated him, he still put on an innocent face.

He was so angry that his fists were cracking.

Qiao Wanwan felt the chill in the air, as if she were being attacked from both sides of the river.

He shrank back, reminding them:

"Weren't we leaving? Now that I've taken care of everything, let's go."

“Miss is right.”

Chunxia could also sense that Young Master Gu was very angry at this moment, and the scene became awkward.

That's just how the young lady is; she doesn't consider the consequences and speaks her mind bluntly.

It's natural for some people to get angry.

But in Chunxia's heart, Miss is the most important.

So he immediately spoke up and gave Gu Chaomu a reminder.

"Young Master Gu, let's hurry up. The Alliance Leader is still waiting for Miss in Anqi City."

"... "

Gu Chaomu, who was originally thinking of killing someone, heard Chunxia mention the leader of the alliance to warn him.

The anger that had been building in his mind immediately subsided and diminished considerably.

I'm trying to comfort myself:

If it weren't for this woman, who was still somewhat useful to him...

He abandoned her long ago.

How lucky she is, she is the leader's daughter.

Because of this identity, they received his protection.

Otherwise, with that mouth of hers that often offends people, she would have been torn apart countless times.

Suppressing a surge of anger, he smiled and said:

"Wanwan, let's go. I've borrowed a carriage for you from Young Master Xie. That way, you won't have a very bumpy ride on the road."

Qiao Wanwan looked at the man in front of her who was giving her a fake smile and raised an eyebrow slightly.

So, you didn't anger him at all?

He's shameless.

Do we still need to borrow Xie Ze's carriage?

Okay, I'll gradually distance myself from it later.

Qiao Wanwan returned the smile.

"Then Wanwan will thank Brother Gu in advance."

"Wanwan, don't be so polite. Everything I've done for you is just what I should do."

"... "

Ignored, Xie Ze watched the two flirt and leave.

His face was gloomy.

Zhong Shi, standing beside him, felt slightly embarrassed.

A reminder:

"Young master, let's go together."

"Walk."

"Yes."

"Grumpy"

Xie Ze's wheelchair was pushed away from the inn by Zhong Shi.

...

On the wide dirt road in the suburbs, there are ruts from tire tracks.

A resilient little flower grows right in the middle of the road.

Swaying gently in the breeze, its swaying form seems to beckon passing guests.

The rumbling sound of a horse-drawn carriage gradually drew closer.

That beautiful little flower was instantly crushed by a passing carriage.

It's truly a pity.

On this main road, there were only two carriages and a group of people.

Five skilled warriors rode horses to protect the two carriages from the front and back.

The two horse-riding martial artists leading the carriage were Zhong Shi and Gu Chaomu.

Two young girls were sitting in the last carriage.

One of the girls excitedly opened the curtains, stretched out a small hand, and grasped at the air.

It seemed as if it wanted to hold onto the air that the breeze was blowing through its palm.

The scenery passing by was all green hills and clear waters.

The fragrance of herbs lingers around my nose, truly refreshing and delightful.

She breathed in the fresh air on the road with relish.

"The scent of this grass is so pure; even breathing in the oxygen inside the body feels so comfortable."

"Miss, what are you talking about? What is oxygen?"

"... "

Qiao Wanwan felt a tremor in her heart when she heard Chunxia's puzzled expression behind her.

shit!

I accidentally let slip what was on my mind.

"Um, I mean the fresh air here."

"Oh, Miss, you are so knowledgeable. You are so arrogant. I have never heard of you before. I am so stupid. I should learn more from you in the future."

"Ha ha!"

Qiao Wanwan gave an awkward laugh and shut her mouth.

I simply leaned against the window, quietly enjoying the fresh, unpolluted air.

They were all thinking:

You must be able to see a beautiful starry sky here at night, right?

You should definitely take a look when you have time.

...

The carriage swayed and rocked, much like a cradle.

Qiao Wanwan was almost lulled to sleep by this comfortable state.

Just then, a scream suddenly came from outside.

"Help!"

It startled Qiao Wanwan, who was about to fall asleep, so much so that she jumped up.

"What happened?"

Before Chunxia could answer, the carriage suddenly braked sharply.

"Miss, be careful."

Chunxia grabbed the young lady's hand, protecting her from falling to the ground due to the momentum.

Another woman's pitiful scream reached my ears.

"Don't touch me! Help! Someone please help me! Waaaaah!"

"Miss, it sounds like cries for help are coming from not far away."

"Ah."

The two, master and servant, looked out the window.

Gu Chaomu, who was leading the way, rode his horse to their carriage.

He gave me a word of advice.

"Chunxia, ​​you stay here and protect your young lady. I'll go up and see what's going on up ahead."

"Yes, Young Master Gu."

Gu Chaomu nodded and immediately kicked the horse's belly.

"drive!"

They ran forward a bit and reached the first carriage.

He then made a request to Xie Ze inside the carriage:

"Young Master Xie, it seems something has happened up ahead. Could you please protect Wanwan for me? I'll go ahead and help."

"Alright, Young Master Gu, you can go without worry."

"Thank you."

"drive!"

Gu Chaomu left the caravan with a heart full of chivalrous spirit.

Xie Ze watched Gu Chaomu walk away, a hint of worry in his eyes.

Zhong Shi, who had rushed back after checking the situation, approached Xie Ze's carriage and respectfully said:

"Young master, there seems to be a house ahead, but we've encountered bandits."

"Ah."

He was relieved after learning the situation.

Since they were just ordinary mountain bandits,

With Gu Chaomu's martial prowess, he could kill all the bandits by himself.

He doesn't need to help.

He glanced over and saw the woman through the window of the carriage behind him.

With a face full of "worry," he stared intently outside.

Thinking back to when Gu Chaomu asked him to protect that woman?

I felt unhappy.

So, they called Zhong Shi.

"Uncle Zhong, lead our convoy forward."

"Okay, Master."

Zhong Shi was unaware of the young master's intentions.

They assumed that the young master wanted to see the heroic figure of Young Master Gu saving people.

...
