Chapter 697: What's the Point of Everything Being the S

about one side doing all the work, is it You have the power to choose whether or not to work with me, and I naturally have the power to choose who I work with.”"Just now, all the literate and embroide...After about two pots of tea, the plump businessman looked at the couple's departing figures with a complicated gaze. Under the curious glances of his friends beside him, he quickly stuffed his wallet into his pocket.

Then continued to wear that dejected posture and turned away.

"Let's go."

"Lin brother, did you know those two people just now"

The wealthy man shook his head, “I don’t remember. Maybe I did business with them before They seem to have recognized me.”

"Just came by to say hello. Let's go."

Fan Jinshi handed the purse to the fat merchant and said only one thing, "Pretend that we've never met today."

As for what was in the pouch, the portly businessman picked it up, sniffed it, and his face instantly changed.

This is a Fengwen Pill.

He didn't know why this young woman would give him such a valuable medicine so readily. The portly businessman was very much interested in getting to the bottom of it.

Based on his years of experience in business, he believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch.

The scene of his daughter lying in bed with a pale face flashed through his mind. Even though this meal came at a price, he had to eat it.

He didn't have time.

The wealthy businessman resolutely left Mukuzhou and braved the wind and snow to rush back all night.

On the way back to their home, Zongyu reached out and took his wife's slender, pale fingers in his. With a gentle pause, Fang Jinyu stopped walking and turned to look at him.

"What's wrong"

Zongyu couldn't understand.

"Do you know this person"

Fang Jinshi smiled. If there was anyone in this other world who she could trust wholeheartedly and willingly offer her entire life to, it would only be Zong Yu.

She wasn't very fond of explaining everything to people. But with Zongyu, he could ask anything.

"Uh huh."

"I once saw this person at the grain store in Luoshui before."

"Since I didn't speak to him back then, it's normal that he doesn't remember me."

Have you ever been to Wangjia Grocery Store

Zong Yu paused for a moment, then immediately understood.

He was also a merchant dealing in grain.

Fang Jinshu's smile widened noticeably, her eyes reflecting a clear sense of pride and admiration.

He truly is the kind of man she would choose. A person like Ah Yu staying in the mountains as a hunter is a real waste of talent.

He was simply born into hardship, experiencing more suffering than most people. With a sickly mother and young siblings to care for, the burden of responsibility weighed heavily on him, leaving him with no room to choose his own path.

If you give Ayou a suitable opportunity, he will surely surpass any man in the world.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Fang Jinshu's smile froze at the corner of her lips and faded away.

So, under the guise of love, she imprisoned people around her. Was her decision to hide with them in that remote mountaintop refuge truly the right one

This was Fang Jinshui's first time reflecting on herself.

Zong Yu saw that she clearly had something to say just now, but her expression suddenly changed, and she remained silent for a long time. Worried, he asked.

"Splendid"

"What's wrong"

Originally, she had her delicate fingers lightly resting on Zong Yu's big palm. Suddenly, she gripped it tightly and slid her soft palm completely into the dry warmth of his palm.

Almost at the same time, the broad hand that had given her countless feelings of security immediately clasped hers tightly.

Ming Ming's simple hand-holding, a gesture that happened countless times in their daily routine, miraculously quelled the fleeting feeling of reluctance and unease Fang Jinxiu had just experienced.

She once again curved her lips and shook her head slightly at Zong Yu.

"It's nothing, I just think my Ah Yu is smarter than all those young masters in there."

Compliments and affirmations from a loved one are always the sweetest things a man wants to hear.

Zong Yu was no exception. He didn't notice Fang Jinxiu's fleeting change in emotion and his ears were slightly flushed from the praise.

But his expression on the surface was still the same as usual, unchanged.

The more he pursed his lips, the more it proved that he was shy at heart at this moment.

Her man, he's a real quiet one.

"Well, if we don't go in now, Fu Ming might think I fell into a pit toilet."

Zong Yu smiled, and the rigid lines of his face softened immediately when he smiled, changing the impression he gave people. His black sword brows, deep eye sockets beneath which a high and straight nose bridge stood out, and though there was a terrifying scar across both eyelids, he still had a charisma that drew you in.

Perhaps to others, this scar makes this face look quite frightening.

Fang Jinxiu's aesthetic sense differed from that of ordinary girls since childhood. She found the scar that ran through Zong Yu's eyebrows to be extremely masculine, adding a rugged touch to his already handsome features.

If it weren't for this scar, and if his complexion were a little fairer, he would look just like those pampered young masters from the city.

Everything is so monotonous, what's there to look aty hard to find a way to control him.If there's no evidence, handing over Zong Pingchuan won't help. If Your Majesty finds out he's in their residence, Yuan Xiang's people might even accuse them of mak...
