Chapter 1008: Damn It

d out to free her hair from the branch. Suddenly, her gaze shifted, and she saw something incredible.Her hair was held by a piece of dead wood, and on the side branch, a white lingzhi mushroom grew.Th...Fang Jinshu froze for a moment, then frowned.

"Could this be a task given to you by Prime Minister Yuan"

Jiang Zhuan heard her suddenly mention Yuan Buyu, a hint of displeasure flashing across his face.

"Madam Fang, you misunderstand. Jiang is sincerely wishing to marry you."

"As long as you're willing to marry me, Jiang will offer you everything he has, including his life."

Jiang Chuang's expression was incredibly serious, so serious that Fang Jinshu couldn't find a single flaw. She could only ask with half belief,

"Though we've never met before, this is our first encounter. For Jiang Ye to request my hand in marriage is simply inconceivable."

"Why"

When interrogating, Fang Jinshi carefully searched the original owner's memories in her mind, including every detail of her life here for several years, confirming that she and Jiang Chuang were complete strangers before this.

"Xiuxi, do you know how long I've been looking for you"

Sewing, sewing

When Jiang Chuang suddenly called out her nickname from before she hadn't traveled, Fang Jinshi was completely dumbfounded. Her brain seemed to have stalled.

Since coming into this world, no one had ever called her by the name Xiu Xiu again.

No, how could people here know her given name before she time-traveled Could Jiang Chuang be someone she met in modern times and also time-traveled here

Fang Jinxiu's head shot up in shock.

Jiang Chuang could already tell from her expression that she had probably guessed his identity.

XiuXiu is as clever as she was when she was little.

"You, are you Big River brother"

She exclaimed her childhood sweetheart's name in astonishment, "Jiangchuan, Jiangchuang! Could it really be this coincidental"

Jianchuan is the son of her father's good friend, and their two families are both neighbors and close friends. Later, the two also attended the same university before and after.

Besides not attending middle and high school in the same institution, over the past twenty years, she has spent more time with Jiangchuan than with her parents.

Jiang Chuan has been taking good care of himself since he was a child.

Both of them were only children in their families, she had no brothers and Jiang Chuan had no sisters, so they naturally took on the roles of siblings when interacting with each other.

Seeing Jiang Chuang nod slowly, Fang Jinxiu's eyes shifted from surprise and doubt to astonishment and delight.

She had already stood up and walked over to circle Jiangchuan, looking left and right, circling several times.

"You, you are really Jiang Chuan"

"How come you're here too Are you also a traveler from another time When did you come"

Just now Jiang Chuan said he had been looking for himself for a long time, could it be that he arrived in this world even earlier than himself

Jiang Chuan wore a doting smile on his face, looking dazed as he grabbed Fang Jinshu's hand.

"Don't keep spinning around me, you'll get dizzy."

"Have a seat and talk."

Once confirmed that it was an acquaintance, Fang Jinxiu didn't return to her previous position. Instead, she sat in the chair beside Jiang Chuan.

"You were really good at pretending just now, you clearly recognized me but still played tai chi with me for so long."

"Isn't it fun, watching me treat you like an enemy, on guard"

Jiang Chuan unsurprisingly took a punch from Fang Jinxiu.

But there was only a smile on his face, and even when he cried out "ouch ouch," he didn't move half a step away from Fang Jinshi.

"I'm really hungry, you know how picky my stomach is. The food at Da Xi Restaurant isn't half as good as what we have back home."

"I wanted to tell you my true identity as soon as I walked in, but seeing this spread of food made me lose all self-control."

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Dachao gege will be your human model later and give you two shots to let out some steam, okay"

Fang Jinshu laughed, "This Jiang Chuan, he's still as poor-loving as ever."

"Come on, seriously, just answer my question!"

She really has a lot she wants to ask him.

Since he had always been looking for her, how could he have become Yuan Buyu's subordinate

"This is a long story, I came from four years in the future."

Fang Jinxiu was ready to listen intently, and even poured Jiang Chuan a cup of tea.

Jiang Chuan was about to reach out and take it when suddenly the door was kicked open with a bang, and Zong Yu rushed in with an anxious expression.

Then came Wu Niang.

She saw that Fang Jinshu was actually so close to Jiang Chuang, and instinctively thought it was Jiang Chuang who forced her. She hurriedly ran over and pulled her aside.

"Master, come quickly! Your husband has arrived, he will definitely not let you be bullied!"

Fang Jinshi was dumbfounded, while Wu Niang looked relieved.

"Fortunately, I had people go to Jinshiu Mountain Villa earlier to call for someone. Just in time, your husband was home. As soon as he heard you were in danger, he came immediately."

"Madam Fang, your husband truly cares for you."

“You have no idea how anxious he is.”

Wu Niang was talking to herself, but the two men's eyes had already locked onto each other like fighting roosters, and the air crackled with animosity.

Fang Jinxiu finally reacted.

"Was it you who called Zongyu"

Seeing her expression, Wu Niang said, "Yes, mistress. Have I done something wrong again"

She was worried that Fang Jinshu might be in danger. The other party was Jiang Chuang, the overlord of the capital city. She was just a weak woman, wouldn't he be afraid

Fang Jinshu was a little amused and touched. Wu Niang's intention was for her own good, and besides, she didn't know about the situation between her and Zong Yu. Whatever.

"It's alright, you can go out first. There seems to be some misunderstanding here."

Actually, Jiang Ye doesn't really have any animosity towards me. He has no intention of harming me.

No sooner had she finished speaking than she saw Zong Bo also rushing in, Jade Lotus panting heavily following her second brother.

"How did you all get here"

What did Wu Niang say to make everyone come back

Zong Bai and Yu Lian really couldn't keep up with their elder brother's pace. Their elder brother rode a horse here, and the two of them were not very familiar with riding horses. Although the carriage was driven very fast, it was still much slower than their elder brother.

"Sister-in-law, are you alright"

Two people stood on either side of Fang Jinshi, guarding her like bodyguards, which left her utterly confused.

"I'm fine."

"Wu Niang told us all, this man is under Yuan Buyu's command. Anyone who stands with that treacherous official isn't a good person."

Given that Yuan Buyu sent assassins to try and kill their whole family last time, the Zong family now views Yuan Buyu's name with extreme hatred and sensitivity. Hearing his name makes them roll their eyes and clench their teeth in anger.

Zhao Xingzhou is still lying in bed recovering from his injuries. The culprit behind all of this is that treacherous official.

Yulian's cheeks were puffed up, and Zongbai also stared at Jiang Chuang with a wary expression.

Jiang Chuang's face was cold, his rivals always seemed especially jealous when they saw him. He knew that Fang Jinshu had spoken up for him, these people wouldn't do anything to him.

Even if Xi Xiu doesn't explain, these people probably wouldn't dare to touch him.

His gaze remained cold and fixed on Zong Yu.

"You are Zongyu."

That scoundrel who dared to harm Xiuxiu, and after marrying her, didn't cherish her at all!

As a man, Zong Yu immediately saw that this man had no ordinary feelings for Jinxiu.

When he came in just now, seeing the two of them so close, he was furious, a vinegar vat spilled over with anger, but at the same time, he could see that Jinxiu was not under any coercion from the other party.

She didn't know how capable Jiang was, but she had a clear understanding of Jinxiu's abilities. If it weren't for her trust in this person, she would never have gotten so close to him.

Thinking like this, Zong Yu's heart felt even more constricted. Fang Jinshu's heart. The couple didn't have the habit of accepting people bowing and kneeling. They tacitly moved forward together, reaching out their hands."Sister-in-law, wake up quickly."Zongyu wa...
