Chapter 4909: Zhao Dachiu
She was none other than Aâjiao, the mysterious girl that has shown up before.
Li Qiye jumped up and told Jian Yunyun: âCome on up.â
Yunyun paused for one second before deciding to jump up and sit in the back. Today has been an eventful one, albeit puzzling. Too many coincidences that werenât coincidences.
âGo!â Aâjiao shouted and the carriage became one with the night.
People couldnât even feel that it was speeding since it had entered a different space-time dimension, or an entirely new plane of existence.
Of course, Yunyun didnât recognize this special phenomenon.
âNot bad, let me have this carriage?â Li Qiye asked.
âIf we become family, then whatâs mine is yours anyway.â Aâjiao flirted with him, certainly not a sight for sore eyes.
Yunyun was affected but Li Qiye didnât mind. He smiled and said: âFar from enough to even start the negotiation.â
âAs Iâve said before, Father is willing to negotiate. You just have to let us know.â She leaned closer, latching onto Li Qiye.
It was one thing when Aâjiao didnât speak. Alas, the combination of her flirty voice and coquettish expression was too much for Yunyun to handle.
âIt is still the same.â Li Qiye said flatly.
âThen your heart is made of stone. You are putting me in a difficult situation.â She said.
Yunyun stared at Li Qiye, unable to guess their relationship. It sounded as if they were talking about marriage. So Li Qiye would marry her if her father were to agree to certain conditions?
This wasnât a baseless assumption since Aâjiao didnât seem to be a good catch. Each of her actions truly made others uncomfortable.
âLittle Bro, if you donât seize this opportunity, itâll be problematic.â Aâjiao said.
âHow so?â Li Qiye asked.
She touched his chest with her finger and said: âZhao Dachiu from the next village wants to marry me.â
âYour father agreed?â Li Qiye smiled.
The glimmer in her eyes suddenly changed, causing Yunyun to feel that she was no longer as offputting as before. This exuded an unfathomable aura that only lasted for a split second.
âThis doesnât need my fatherâs agreement. You know about this guy, heâs not a good person at all. When the time comes, he might just kidnap and marry me.â Aâjiao tried to look sad and cute.
Yunyun, despite being a nice person, had the urge to kick her off the carriage after seeing this.
âIsnât this good news? Two happy events happening at once.â Li Qiye smiled.
âDonât you know that I only have room for you in my heart?â Aâjiao stared intensely at him.
Yunyun thought that Li Qiye must have done something to Aâjiao and then fled. Aâjiao seemed deep in love with him.
âThis Zhao Dachiu is an evil guy, to say the least. Heâll marry me and use my father as a tool.â Aâjiao complained.
âYeah, no one can compare to your father when it comes to evil.â Li Qiye chuckled.
âYou shouldnât say thatâ¦â Aâjiao stomped her foot: âThe guy got too many friends, my fatherâs two hands canât deal with four fists.â
âYour father is experienced. Many full of bravado thought that they could kill him. Now, they donât even have a marked grave while your father is alive and well. Zhao Dachiu canât handle a sly fox like him.â Li Qiye said.
âThen you havenât thought this through. Even if he doesnât defeat my father, he might use our tools to beat you down. Itâll be over for you then.â She said.
âThat actually makes me excited. Weâll see who will be beating who down.â Li Qiye smiled.
âIâm just worried about you. You might be able to beat him but what if he breaks into your house and destroy everything? That sounds terrible, right?â She said.
âSo ultimately, still wanting to work with me?â He asked.
âNothing can be better than your cooperation. My father will be generous.â She winked.
âNo, thank you, I donât trust the sly fox.â Li Qiye waved his hand.
âThatâs rather rude of you. Father is coming with sincerity.â She said.
âWhat is he worrying about? Others should be afraid of him, not the other way around.â Li Qiye shook his head.
Yunyun has been listening to them the entire time. âFatherâ, âZhao Dachiuâ, âtoolsâ? This sounded like two villagers gossiping about trivial matters that have nothing to do with cultivation.
âLil Bro, Iâll be honest.â She said: âFather said that the village isnât that united, he is worried that one day, some might cause trouble and itâll be difficult for you. They might not be able to harm you but can still cause damage to your home.â
Li Qiyeâs eyes narrowed after hearing this. Yunyun became intimidated after staring at him; she felt as if the world has just become tiny like a speck of dust. Thus, she was even tinier in comparison.
She suddenly forgot to breathe and wanted to get down on her knees. Of course, this feeling was also fleeting.
âIs this a threat?â Li Qiye coldly said.
âYour words are so cold.â She said with indignation: âYou already know how I feel about you. Father likes you as well and doesnât want anything bad to happen to you. We are merely trying to prevent it.â
âHe just wants someone to sweep up the trash.â Li Qiye smiled.
