Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
“Do you both know which is the way to that family clan?” Feng Jiu asked.
“Well…” The two of them hesitated for a while, then the woman said: “Is the surname of the person you’re looking for Zhuo? Is he called Zhuo Junyue?”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu’s eyes lit up in surprise: “Yes yes, that’s him. He is the child’s father. Have you seen him before, Miss?”
The woman glanced at the man beside her when she heard this and paused, then she said: “We only saw him from a distance once, we know that he came here to ask for medicine, it’s just that…”
“It’s just what?” Feng Jiu’s face showed concern: “What is it?”
“It’s just that he was spotted by our family’s youngest daughter who took a liking to him. Now the clan is preparing for their wedding!” The woman said, looking at the child in Feng Jiu’s arms in sympathy.
Upon hearing this, the old man was stunned. They were worried about the danger Zhuo Junyue was in and it turned out that a girl had taken a liking to him and they wanted him to stay behind and become their son-in-law? Thanks to him, Feng Jiu had rushed over to save him. If he had known that the kid had encountered such a good thing, he wouldn’t have bothered to come.
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed slightly when she heard the woman’s words. She really hadn’t expected it!
She had been thinking about the situation the whole journey here. Back then, when the old man told her about Zhuo Junyue asking for help, she had also been thinking about it. When she used the child to ask for help, she was also thinking about it. The other party bore no grudges towards Zhuo Junyue. They probably wouldn’t make things difficult for him because he had a small child either. What she hadn’t expected was that they weren’t making things difficult for him but that the young lady of this reclusive family had taken a liking to him.
Haha. This is amusing.
Her eyes moved slightly and a dark light flashed across the bottom of her eyes, so fast that no one had noticed.
“Miss, can you please take us there? Let the child see his father?” Feng Jiu asked, her hopeful eyes fell on the woman.
“But it’s useless even if we go. Anyone that Fourth Young Miss likes, she won’t let go. Also, the Patriarch has agreed to the marriage, so you can’t change anything even if you go.”
“Ahem!”
The old man coughed lightly and glanced at Feng Jiu, then he said to the two of them: “Actually, we are his relatives. If he is really getting married, then shouldn’t we be there no matter what?”
The man and woman looked at each other when they heard this and they discussed it in a low voice.
“I don’t think it’s appropriate to bring them there. If Fourth Young Miss finds out, she will definitely take her anger out on us. Don’t forget, we are only collateral, if something happened to her wedding because of this, I’m afraid that the Patriarch won’t forgive us.”
“But they are Zhuo Junyue’s family after all, and the child is still so young…” The woman couldn’t bear it, especially since the old man had rescued them.
“The strength of that senior is unfathomable, I’m worried that he will cause trouble at the wedding when he goes over. Besides, though our family clan doesn’t interact with the outside world much, this time, for the Fourth Young Miss’ wedding, she invited a lot of reclusive family clans over. If something goes wrong, I’m afraid…”
“This…” The woman was also hesitant. She wanted to help them but she didn’t know how to help them.
Feng Jiu and the old man looked at each other when they heard the conversation between the couple. Then, the old man stepped forward smiling and said: “You don’t have to feel troubled, as long as you take us somewhere nearby, we can find our way on our own.. We won’t tell anyone that the two of you brought us here either so you won’t be implicated.”
