“But fortunately, the main part of the ritual has been completed. Now, there’s only one crucial step left.”
As Chu Wanwan spoke, she coughed a few more times, her eyes filled with embarrassment and bashfulness.
Although she had read the relevant books on the subject, it was still difficult for her to say it out loud. However, she knew that Jiang Ming should be able to understand what she meant.
Hearing this, Jiang Ming was a little stunned.
He had forgotten that there was such a step, and he did not know what to say.
He did not really like her, so he naturally could not joke about her innocence and chastity.
Then, he thought for a moment and found an excuse. “It seems like the chief has agreed to our request. In fact, he has no choice. Before he agrees, I still don’t want to take your innocence. When the time comes, if you give birth to a child, I’m afraid the chief won’t like it. Only when he truly acknowledges our marriage will he like our child. I hope to see three generations living under the same roof. I want it to be a happy and harmonious scene,” Jiang Ming said seriously.
Hearing this, Chu Wanwan did not find it strange at all. Instead, she felt that Jiang Ming was only thinking about her. She could not help but say with tears in her eyes, “Jiu Zhu, you’re so good. You’re always thinking about me. You don’t think about yourself at all. I’m really lucky to have met you. I hope we’re together forever.”
As she spoke, she could not help but smile. Her dimples were revealed on both sides, and she looked very happy.
Jiang Ming coughed and did not say anything else. He sighed in his heart.
At the end of the day, he still had to let Chu Wanwan down.
“Jiu Zhu, where are your two companions?”
Chu Wanwan suddenly thought of something and looked at Jiang Ming again.
A thought flashed through her mind.
These two were Jiang Ming’s good friends, and their relationship seemed to be very good. If one day, Jiang Ming discovered her relationship with Chu Yuanxi, she would be able to explain herself better if those two could help her.
The most important thing now was to build a good relationship with those two and get rid of Chu Yuanxi.
This way, everything would be fine, and she would have nothing to worry about.
Jiang Ming thought for a moment. “I don’t know where they went. I’ll go look for them.”
Then, he patted Chu Wanwan’s shoulder. “You should go somewhere else to take a look. I’ll call them back first. They might be drunk.”
Chu Wanwan was delighted and quickly agreed.
She had the time to explain everything to Chu Yuanxi in detail. Chu Yuanxi would be easily fooled by her.
When the time came, she would be able to join hands with the servant girl to get rid of Chu Yuanxi
Jiang Ming turned around and left.
After walking for a while, he suddenly felt something strange and turned to look at Chu Wanwan.
At this moment, Chu Wanwan looked like she was in a hurry. She also seemed to be worried about something.
He was confused.
The matter of the village chief had already been resolved. What else could Chu Wanwan do?
Could it be that Chu Wanwan had done something harmful to him behind his back?
If that was really the case, then he could use this opportunity to stall and not feel guilty anymore.
Thinking of this, he could not help but narrow his eyes.
It seemed like he needed to investigate Chu Wanwan.
What he did not know was that Chu Wanwan’s servant girl was also looking at him.
Their gazes met, which also aroused the servant girl’s suspicion.
Jiang Ming’s gaze was really strange. It was as if he knew something. Could it be that he knew about Chu Wanwan and Chu Yuanxi?
Chu Wanwan had always wanted to live happily ever after with Jiang Ming. She could not let him find out.
Thinking of this, she could not help but form a plan.
On the other side, Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe were hiding in a room. The two of them were in a terrible state.
They waited and waited, but Jiang Ming was nowhere to be seen. They wanted to call out to him in their hearts, but he did not respond.
“Did something happen to him?” Yuan Hehe asked anxiously. Why haven’t I heard from him? Although the three of us have different communication spells, we’ve never had a problem before. Logically speaking, he should be able to contact us. I’m really worried that we haven’t contacted each other for a long time. Why don’t we go out and take a look first?”
As he spoke, he wanted to leave.
Sikong Wuyuan stepped forward to block Yuan Hehe. “We’ll attract too much attention if we go out like this. If we’re discovered by the people in this village, we’ll bring trouble to Ning Caichen.”
Yuan Hehe understood all this, but he still felt a little frustrated.
“Ning Caichen shouldn’t be suspected yet. Could it be that the village chief has said something to slander us?”
Sikong Wuyuan fell silent.
He did not know what to say either. Still, they had to wait and see.
If they went out, it would be easy for accidents to happen.
“Sikong Wuyuan, why aren’t you saying anything? We have to make a choice now. Otherwise, Ning Caichen will be in big trouble.”
Yuan Hehe had already thought of the worst-case scenario. He wished he could fly out and rush to Jiang Ming to save him.
Sikong Wuyuan immediately made his decision.
He did not want anything to happen to Jiang Ming.
Then, he looked at Yuan Hehe and said, “Let’s go quietly and avoid people. We’ll search the village secretly. Don’t worry. Ning Caichen will be safe.”
As they spoke, the two of them rushed out and bumped into Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming looked at the two anxious people with his mouth agape. Confusion flashed in his eyes. “Who asked you to come out? No matter who it is, you can’t believe anything they tell you. There are many people in this village.”
At the end of his sentence, he put on a serious expression.
Yuan Hehe was extremely excited.
“Why would we listen to someone else? We were just afraid that something would happen to you, so we came over. I didn’t expect to run into you. Ning Caichen, thank goodness you’re safe.”
Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry. “It’s just a small matter. What else can happen to me? You’re worried about the wrong thing. Don’t worry, I’ve settled everything. After a while, we’ll be able to get the Yellow Gall Grass and leave. Everything will be settled.”
Sikong Wuyuan’s eyes were filled with confusion.
“Why would you say that? How could this be? Those people look extremely shrewd, but they were persuaded by you so easily?”
Jiang Ming smiled. “This isn’t my doing. It’s all thanks to Chu Wanwan. This is all her hard work.”
