Chapter 72

Jiang Yue was taken aback, and the book in her hand fell directly on the couch, her pink face turned pale in an instant, and her eyes were also stained with a trace of panic.

"Shi, Shizi, why are you here?"

Her eyes dodged, obviously she didn't want to see him.

Gu Mo's thoughts just came to rest in an instant, and his dark eyes looked at her fixedly.

"What? Your reaction is that you don't want me to come?"

He walked over slowly, sat on the pagoda, stretched out his hand to pick up a strand of her black hair and played with it, his movements were very intimate, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

Jiang Yue looked at his hands, which were three points more beautiful than a woman's, and said nothing. Suddenly remembering the strength of those big hands pinching her neck before, she couldn't help but flinch, her voice soft.

A pair of beautiful phoenix eyes raised slightly, showing a hint of weakness.

"Why would my son think so? I was just thinking, I'm not feeling well these days, and I'm afraid I'll give my son a sickness. The son is a rich man. Naturally, a vulgar person like me can't get along with me. You compare."

Her words were full of compliments, but her body didn't move at all, and she seemed extremely carefree.

Gu Mo has already confirmed the guess in his heart, his eyes became more and more cold, and he turned slightly sideways, the tip of his nose almost touching hers.

"What if my son said that you are allowed to compare with me?"

The smile on Jiang Yue's face froze, a little uncertain about his thoughts.

This elder son is always unpredictable, he can give you thousands of favors, or drag you into Abi Hell with his own hands.

Accompanying such a person is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.

Jiang Yue knew that she didn't have the ability to control this person, and she didn't want to get involved with him too much, so she could only tilt her head back dryly, keeping a certain distance from him.

"My lord was joking."

Now, the look in Gu Mo's eyes became colder and colder.

A face also quickly became gloomy, and the fingers that were playing with her hair climbed along her cheeks, and pinched her chin fiercely.

"Jiang Yue, I will ask you again, is it really so ungrateful?"

Jiang Yue didn't speak, but pursed her lips tightly.

Seeing her like this, Gu Mo obviously already knew her answer.

Instead of being angry, he smiled, his face stained with a layer of gloom.

"Okay, very good!"

Leaving such a nonsensical sentence behind, Gu Mo slammed her on the bed, then turned around and flicked his sleeves, blending into the night within a moment.

Jiang Yue looked at his back, lying on the bed panting heavily.

This man is really dangerous.

It's so dangerous to draw a clear line with him!
In the next few days, Jiang Yue was a little restless, afraid that Gu Mo would come to her again on a whim.

But Gu Mo seemed to know what she was thinking, and since then, he never came again.

Even Danqing didn't take half a step into her Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

All the news Jiang Yue got about him was obtained by Ye Zi from outside.

"Miss, are you really not going to associate with Gu Shizi? I heard that during this time, Miss Su's family has been entangled with him tightly, and whenever she has time, she sends messages to the Shizi's residence. I'm afraid it's not because she wants to imitate you before. way."

Holding the ledger in her hand, Jiang Yue read it carefully. When she heard her say this, a picture of Qianli flashed across her mind.

His eyes were in a trance for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"Yezi, didn't I tell you before, don't inquire about nothing, we are not like before, you have time to inquire about these gossips, why don't you help me study the operation of the restaurant."

Resurrection life, no one understands the importance of money better than Jiang Yue.

Agricultural business.

The businessman is at the bottom of the list, almost as soon as a businessman is mentioned, everyone will think of the words "smell of copper".

But it is clear that their basic necessities are inseparable from merchants, and almost all of them regard money as a treasure.

Speaking of which, these self-proclaimed Qingliu people are actually inferior to businessmen.

Ye Zi saw that her young lady put all her thoughts on the account book, as if she really didn't care about Gu Shizi at all, she couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

Looking at her pretty side face, he hesitated to speak.

Perhaps her gaze was too straightforward, Jiang Yue raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, and finally put the ledger on the table.

"What do you want to tell me?"

Ye Zi nodded, then shook her head again, just as she was about to speak, there was a commotion outside, the concierge walked over in three steps at a time, and said in a low voice.

"Miss, the Xiao family is here again, this time through the back door. Mrs. Xiao is holding a cloth bag, which looks heavy. She is kneeling at the back door and is unwilling to get up. I tried to persuade her, but she didn't do it at all. Forget it."

And Mrs. Xiao is a woman and an elderly person after all, so they naturally don't want to force her.

After all, if something really happened, they servants can't bear it.

Jiang Yue frowned directly, Xiao Liran has been arrested and brought to justice, what is this man doing here?
Although she didn't want to talk to her, Mrs. Xiao knelt at the door of her house. After all, it was not a glorious thing.

After thinking about it again and again, Jiang Yue finally walked out slowly holding Ye Zi's hand.

There were two people waiting at the back door, with sticks in their hands, their faces were full of nervousness, for fear that the old woman would rush up suddenly if she didn't want to die.

Seeing Jiang Yue, a gleam of light quickly flashed in the boy's eyes, and he greeted him in a few steps.

"Miss, you are here!"

Jiang Yue nodded, took two steps forward, and saw Mrs. Xiao kneeling on the ground in a state of distress.

At this moment, she was wearing a gray coarse linen dress, and all the hairpins on her head were removed. Her weather-beaten face was becoming more and more haggard at the moment, and she looked as if she had aged more than ten years overnight.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, she looked up in surprise, and saw Jiang Yue coming slowly while supporting the maid.

Contrary to her vulgarity, Jiang Yue is wearing a skirt made of thin gauze that highlights her figure. The fragrant skirt complements her gentleness without looking elegant.

She wears an apricot-colored blouse outside, and her hair is simply tied up in a snake bun with a hairpin on it.

The tail of the hairpin had tassels, which swayed slightly as she walked, which was particularly eye-catching.

But after only coming back for a few days, Jiang Yue seemed to be a different person, radiant like a young girl.

Mrs. Xiao only took one look, and hatred filled the sky in her heart.

It's all because of this disaster, if it wasn't for her, the Xiao family wouldn't be in the situation they are today!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Xiao quickly lowered her head, deeply buried the trace of resentment in her heart.

Jiang Yue has been paying attention to her every move, so naturally she didn't miss the cold light in her eyes, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth, she stood still not far from her.
