Chapter 132 Very sweet
The man kept rambling on, looking down on Qiao Suluo with disdain, and speaking in a tone that made it all seem perfectly natural.
They didn't even notice that Que Hongjin was angry.
Que Hongjin was carefully raised by the Peacock Clan from a young age. Her manners and etiquette were ingrained in her bones. She usually kept her emotions to herself, was gentle and peaceful, and rarely had any emotional fluctuations.
That's why these subordinates speak so recklessly.
They probably thought that their young master also disliked Qiao Suluo and didn't care about her.
Que Hongjin's gentle gaze turned cold and icy.
With a flick of his sleeve, one of his subordinates, who was chattering away, was directly struck by a burst of internal force.
With a "thud," the orc fell directly to the ground.
He felt as if his bones were shattered from the pain; he could barely get up. He looked up at Que Hongjin, somewhat incredulously, and asked, "Young Master, what does this mean?"
Why did you hit him, young master? You have never done this before.
However, this also shows that the young master's strength has recovered; that attack just now had a very strong sense of power.
Moreover, the young master only needed to wave his hand to do it.
Que Hongjin looked down at Que Shan with her head down and said coldly, "I'll say it again, I will not go back."
"And Qiao Suluo is my wife, I absolutely will not allow anyone to insult or slander her like this."
"This is just a lesson; next time it won't be so easy."
Que Hongjin remained indifferent. Regardless of whether his strength had recovered or not, he would never return to the Peacock Clan.
For him, home is wherever Jossolo is.
The peacock beastmen who had come with them all changed their expressions. They hurriedly went to help Que Shan up and then asked Que Hongjin, "Young Master, did she use some kind of secret technique on you?"
"Young master clearly doesn't like her either, so why are you staying here?"
Everyone was confused. If the young master went back, he would become the heir to the family, the Peacock Family. Why did the young master insist on staying here?
Que Hongjin's expression changed. When he was first arranged to marry Qiao Suluo, he did not like it and did not want her to touch him, but now it was different.
And she is not herself.
"Who says I don't like it?"
“I know you are also acting under orders. For the sake of our kinship, I will not make things difficult for you. You can go back now.”
But it's impossible to get him to go back.
He is now in a hurry to go home and see his wife.
Que Shan and the others' expressions changed. Seeing that their young master had left, they had no choice but to think of another way.
"Let's go find the Fourth Elder first and ask him to persuade our young master."
"It's too unfair for our young master to stay in such a dilapidated place."
They felt sorry for their young master, the dignified young master of the Peacock Clan, who was living in such a remote and isolated county town, wearing clothes made of ordinary materials.
Que Shan and his group hurriedly returned to a residence in the prefectural city to meet the fourth elder of the Peacock Clan.
Upon hearing Que Shan and the others' report, the Fourth Elder asked, "Did he say these words himself?"
"It's absolutely true, Fourth Elder. Could it be that the young master has fallen for that lowly female?"
In their eyes, this fake heiress, who had usurped their place, was trying to curry favor with their young master.
At this moment, they completely forgot that it was the Peacock Clan who abandoned Que Hongjin, made him marry Qiao Suluo, and sent him away from the capital.
However, none of the beastmen in the Peacock Clan at the time could have imagined that Que Hongjin, who was on the verge of death, not only survived but also recovered.
"Fourth Elder, I believe that lowly woman must have used some means to bewitch the young master."
In their eyes, their young master was so noble and beautiful, how could he possibly look down on the lowly Qiao Suluo?
Not only was he of low social status, but he was also ugly and had a bad temper.
The Fourth Elder pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "I never expected that our young master would have a weakness now."
"If he likes it, that's good. If he has a weakness, I don't believe he won't go back to his family."
"These orcs are the kind of people who are afraid of having nothing to care about, nothing to be vulnerable to. If they have no weaknesses, they won't listen to either soft or hard tactics."
Their young master was extremely intelligent and opinionated from childhood. He seemed gentle and refined, but in reality, he was cold-hearted and indifferent. Even when an excellent fiancée was arranged for him, he never cared.
I never expected him to fall for that Qiao Suluo. The Fourth Elder said, "You should investigate this Qiao Suluo thoroughly these next few days. What's going on with her?"
"We must investigate every detail about her."
In the eyes of the Fourth Elder, any female who could capture Que Hongjin's attention must have some extraordinary qualities.
Only by thoroughly investigating can we determine the best way to make the young master compromise.
"Yes."
……
Qiao Suluo was in a good mood after returning home from Nanfeng Tower. She made dinner and delivered it to Tushan Feishang and Gu Songlan.
She then had dinner with Bai Qianluo and the others.
She casually mentioned doing business with Nanfenglou.
"We've already delivered all the dolls to Feng Wanqin, so we're not making any more dolls now."
"Let's continue running the stall business first. As for the snacks, we're too busy to handle everything. I plan to go back to my parents' place tomorrow and tell them to teach my parents and brothers how to make snacks and roasted melon seeds."
"This way they will have a livelihood, and the money they earn can be used to build houses."
When it comes to business matters, Bai Qianluo and the others follow Qiao Suluo's arrangements.
However, Qiao Suluo could clearly sense that Que Hongjin had something on her mind.
After finishing their meal, tidying up their things, and resting, Qiao Suluo thought for a moment and went to Que Hongjin's room.
She wanted to ask him what was wrong.
He didn't eat much for dinner.
"Wife master?"
Que Hongjin was pleasantly surprised to see Qiao Suluo come to her room.
Qiao Suluo looked at him and asked, "I noticed you didn't eat much for dinner. Is something on your mind?"
Hearing Qiao Suluo's question, Que Hongjin looked down and saw the worried look in her eyes. Her heart softened, and she reached out to hug her, whispering, "It's nothing, don't overthink it. I was just thinking about some things I learned at the academy."
Qiao Suluo nodded and said, "That's good. I'm glad you're alright."
"I noticed you didn't eat much for dinner, here, have this."
For Qiao Suluo, Que Hongjin was her first beast husband. Perhaps because of her fetish for chicks, Que Hongjin was very different to her.
Que Hongjin looked at the white thing in Qiao Suluo's palm, wondering what it was.
But he didn't ask; he trusted his wife and simply picked it up and put it in his mouth.
When you actually put it in your mouth, you realize that it tastes sweet.
"Is this candy?"
Qiao Suluo smiled and said, "Yes, is it sweet?"
She always felt that Que Hongjin's worries didn't seem to be related to the academy.
But if he doesn't want to talk about it, she won't ask. Everyone has their own secrets, and she trusts and respects him.
Que Hongjin felt a surge of complex emotions welling up in her heart, a warm and swelling feeling.
He swallowed hard and said, "Mmm, very sweet."
She is as sweet as she is, making people's hearts flutter.
Qiao Suluo smiled and said, "As long as it tastes sweet, that's fine."
"Here, have these too."
These are milk candies she redeemed from the space shop; they taste different.
She hoped that Que Hongjin would feel better.
Seeing the smile on his face, Qiao Suluo felt relieved and prepared to go back to sleep.
But Que Hongjin couldn't let her leave.
He pulled her into his arms, kissed her hair, and said, "Sweetie, stay here with me tonight, okay?"
