Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

"No." Ji Wuyan shook his head and smiled bitterly, not shying away from his weakness and timidity towards Mr. Chen, "I really don't know how to say this..."

To my grandmother, I couldn’t express many of my inner thoughts. I didn't want the other party to worry, and I was also worried that the other party would blame himself, so even though the words passed between my lips and teeth several times, I swallowed them all. But Mr. Chen is different. He doesn't have so many unspeakable concerns about this matter, and is actually more objective and rational.

He closed the book in his hand and said softly, "Although Luo Xin is careless on weekdays, he is actually very smart and smart. You can't hide this for long."

"How long can I hide it..." Ji Wuyan also felt that there was no other way for a while, "I know she is sensitive, so I don't dare to see her now, for fear that something between the lines will reveal my secret. ..." After saying that, he sighed helplessly.

It was as if I wanted to pour out all the emotions that I had been holding back and blocked in my grandmother's yard, and that I dared not express.

Mr. Chen also sighed deeply, and after a long while, he said, "That's all... In the past two days, I found an excuse to ask her to come to my place to help me. Firstly, I really need people here. Secondly, she has become busy. Then I don’t have that much time to worry about Xu Siniang. Furthermore, it will naturally reduce the number of times you meet... But in this way, if you have nothing to do in the past few days, please don’t come to my place to avoid running into me. "

"You girl always seems to be a smart person, but when you look at Zuo Lao, you always look like you are guilty of committing a crime. People who are familiar with you can tell it at a glance."

Ji Wuyan did not object, he just nodded and said hello. After that, he went to see Chen Yinuo and called out, "Mr. Chen, have you heard about the marriage between the Chen family and the Gu family?"

When Ji Wuyan was talking to Mr. Chen just now, Chen Yinuo had no reaction from the beginning to the end, as if he was immersed in medical books and was unaware, and his expression did not change. When he heard Ji Wuyan calling him, he raised his head from the book in front of him, frowned and thought for a while, shook his head, and then nodded again. He felt that the way he was shaking his head and nodding now was really funny, so he sat down He straightened up and explained, "I didn't hear the specific son of the family before I came to Yanjing City, but the patriarch is indeed planning a marriage for Sister Jia Ting... Is it the Gu family? I don't know, which son of the Gu family is it? "

Ji Wuyan and Mr. Chen exchanged a calm look. Jiahui and Jiating were married by the patriarch himself. The identity of the other party in the Chen family was instantly revealed... However, Chen Jiahui was not... the only child in the family. ?

The old man of the Gu family has a big appetite, so he directly approached the direct descendants of the Chen family... and he was not afraid of eventually seeking skin from a tiger.

Although Ji Wuyan was thinking about it, his face remained calm. He was not in a hurry to answer Chen Yinuo's last question. Instead, he asked him, "What kind of girl is Chen Yinuo... Ting?" Listen to him His tone seemed a bit familiar.

"Sister Jia Ting..." Chen Yinuo's brows were not relaxed. He changed his posture, but still sat on the floor among the pile of unclosed books. He murmured while considering the words, "Jia Ting I am Jiahui’s half-sister. I have never met her mother. There are some rumors in the clan... that are not pleasant to hear. Miss Ji is also from a well-established family, so you can probably imagine it, so I won’t go into details."

Ji Wuyan nodded and said nothing. She was not interested in knowing these personal affairs. She just wanted to find out the entry point to this matter.

Chen Yinuo continued, "When Sister Jia Ting was brought back, she was only about three or four years old. At that time, Jiahui was being held in her arms. Because of this, his parents had a big fight. He almost moved his hands and hurt someone. The incident was settled by the clan leader, but after that, Jiahui's parents refused to deal with it, and they kept arguing for three days..." Mr. Chen stood up and poured hot tea, one cup for each person. , Ji Wuyan took it and said, "Well... how is the relationship between Chen Jiahui and Chen Jiating?"

Chen Yinuo held the tea cup and thanked her, then smiled, "Young lady has seen Jiahui's temper before. He is the eldest son of his parents, but a 'sister' shows up out of nowhere. He is not happy. So. There are many targets in the clan, and he is even claimed to be the only one in the family... Sister Jia Ting has a soft personality, and whenever she is bullied, she will only hide and cry... I have met her several times." After saying that, he smiled, but that smile was actually rare and gentle.

Ji Wuyan raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen seems to have a good impression of this girl?"

The other party looked shy, took a sip from the tea cup, hugged her again, and then explained, "It's just...a little pity. You also know that the life of the girl's family in the Chen family is not easy, let alone Not only was Chen Jiahui unhappy with a direct daughter of "unknown origin", but even the girls in the clan were targeting her. Sister Jia Ting was always cautious and walked on thin ice, so she was given a second look by the clan leader. Even so, for the Chen family, , she is just a tool for marriage... The rules of the Chen family do not allow intermarriage easily, but because of the special status of Sister Jiating, she is a good marriage partner."

Ji Wuyan still listened quietly, very patiently, until the other party finished speaking, and then asked abruptly, "These... I mean those things that were targeted by people of the same clan, did Chen Jiating tell you, or do you see for yourself? Living?"

"A few times I saw her crying. At first she didn't tell me in detail, she just hesitated. It was probably later that we got to know her better that she told me these things..."

Ji Wuyan understood immediately - that means he hadn't seen it with his own eyes? The overly soft-tempered Sister Jia Ting was able to survive in the Chen family, which cannibalizes people, or at least women, all the way to the point where she is now discussing marriage with the young master of the Gu family. This shows that she is not a character that everyone can bully.

Rouran is probably just a protective color.

I just don’t know what the face looks like under this protective color...

"The girl hasn't told me yet, who is this young man from the Gu family who is discussing marriage with Jiating? Are the elders of the Gu family easy to get along with? I don't know if Sister Ting of this family will be wronged if she marries her..." He said while As he asked, he murmured, and after he finished speaking, he actually felt worried, as if he was worried about an old father marrying his daughter...

Ji Wuyan only looked at her calmly, and when he saw that the other party was a little embarrassed, he pointed out with interest, "I thought... Brother Yinuo cares about beautiful women, and he just doesn't want her to get married in a hurry."

Opposite him, Chen Yinuo suddenly blushed, including his ears.
