Chapter 425 The Real Gold Fighted Over by Handsome Men (2)
“Afu…it’s too dirty here. I’ll take you to the back mountain; there’s a cave there…”
The old bachelor's home is not as clean as a natural cave.
Xu Nanzhan scooped up the girl, whose thoughts were already overflowing, and started to head towards the back mountain...
But when we reached the hot spring halfway there, we couldn't resist...
-
It was early winter, and the weather was bitterly cold, so the villagers of Moon Village stayed at home and didn't go out much.
So no one saw the "springtime" scenery around the hot springs, which wasn't part of winter.
After it was over, Bai Ruofu was so exhausted that she fell asleep in Xu Nanzhan's arms.
Xu Nanzhan took her back to his home.
The Xu family's house had been uninhabited for a long time, and was overgrown with weeds.
But this place is safer than the Bai family's.
Not only did no one plot against her, but Xu Nanzhan would also protect her.
Moreover, Xu Nanzhan is very diligent.
He quickly cleared a clean spot for Bai Ruofu to lie down and rest, and at the same time, he boiled some hot water.
After preparing warm water, I helped Bai Ruofu wash.
He further explained, "No... otherwise you'll get pregnant... listen to me, be good... otherwise you'll get hurt..."
Bai Ruofu: "..."
Although I had already been intimate with Xu Nanzhan, I still felt ashamed when I heard these words.
Even more shameful was that, from the Xu family's house, they could hear the sounds from the Bai family next door...
So she could clearly hear the voices of Bai's father and mother.
Bai's mother complained, "Where did that wretched girl Bai Ruofu go? It seems Old Man Liu failed and is still unconscious. He was beaten quite badly. It couldn't have been Bai Ruofu who did it, could it?"
Mr. Bai also said, "Yes, Bai Ruofu doesn't have that strength. Alas, our own daughter said in her letter that the Marquis of Zhenbei's men are coming to pick up Bai Ruofu soon, and she told us to ruin Bai Ruofu's reputation before then."
"Now look what's happened! That little vixen has run away! How are we going to explain this to the Marquis of Zhenbei's men?"
Mother Bai sighed, "Fortunately, the Marquis of Zhenbei didn't know that we deliberately switched the two children back then. He thought that Bai Ruofu and our daughter were switched at birth by some twist of fate."
"If it weren't for the fact that our daughter looks so much like me, and we weren't recognized when we went out last month, the fact that Bai Ruofu is the true daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei would have remained a secret forever..."
"My daughter is favored by the Marquis of Zhenbei; we absolutely cannot let Bai Ruofu get a share of her affections..."
"..."
The conversation between Bai's father and mother was utterly outrageous.
Xu Nanzhan could even sense that Bai Ruofu's mind was becoming increasingly tense.
He couldn't say much to comfort Bai Ruofu, for fear of being overheard.
Can only...
They took action.
The best way to ease your beloved girl's worries right now is to distract her.
and so……
Bai Ruofu stared wide-eyed at Xu Nanzhan's next move and quickly covered her mouth.
Brother Nan Zhan, how could you do this...
How can I ever look at your lips again...?
-
A night passed, a day passed, and Bai's parents still hadn't seen Bai Ruofu...
The villagers said that Xu Nanzhan had returned.
He made outstanding military achievements and was appointed as the third-rank General of Anbei. At the same time, he was taken in as a disciple by the Marquis of Zhenbei, and thereafter he and the Marquis of Zhenbei were stationed in the northern part of Hengchao.
Bai's parents panicked even more when they realized that Xu Nanzhan had always taken good care of Bai Ruofu since she was a child, and they feared that he might have feelings for her.
They didn't want Bai Ruofu to marry Xu Nanzhan. If Bai Ruofu married him, she would be the general's wife.
How can their biological daughters compare to her?
