Of course, Xiao Tianyao is not looking down on Guo Gongfu. Guo Gongfu helping him is a good thing, but… …

He doesn’t want him and Lin Chujiu stay together just because of that interest in mind.

Xiao Tianyao didn’t directly answer Meng Laofuren’s question.  He only said: “Meng Laofuren, benwang didn’t marry Chujiu for her backing.”

This is true. Xiao Tianyao didn’t marry Lin Chujiu because there were big forces behind her. Everyone knows that Xiao Tianyao only married Lin Chujiu because of an imperial edict. That is why Meng Laofuren was so worried.

“Wangye, now that the two of you are married. Chujiu is now your wife. Xiao Wangfu and Guo Gongfu are now in the same boat.” Meng Laofuren said even though she knows that this ship is not reliable. But for the sake of Lin Chujiu, she can only make a gamble on this.

Xiao Tianyao got impressed with the old lady’s courage. But, he has his own principle: “Meng Laofuren, benwang would like to cooperate with Guo Gongfu, but not in this kind of way. After all, Chujiu’s uncle will be the head of Guo Gongfu in the future. Benwang doesn’t want Chujiu to be blamed by her uncles later.”

Xiao Tianyao’s words were full of concern to Lin Chujiu. Which made Meng Laofuren think that Lin Chujiu marrying Xiao Tainyao is such a good blessing.

But, if only she knows the real relationship of Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianyao. She will definitely not think like this. 

However, with Xiao Tianyao’s kind words. The last trace of doubt in Meng Laofuren‘s heart dissipated. She came today to see if Lin Chujiu is living well. But, Xiao Tianyao made her see clearly that Lin Chujiu is not lonely. And even without Guo Gongfu’s backing, he doesn’t despise Lin Chujiu.

Meng Laofuren‘s purpose in coming was met. So now, she can finally relaxed and exposed her weakness.

After all, she was too old to keep this up. In the capital, old people like her age and who is sicked are only lying in bed. They rarely go out to walk like her.

When Xiao Tianyao sees this, he immediately ordered the maidservants to help the old lady to rest in the room. And only bring her back once their lunch are ready.

Meng Laofuren knows her condition very well, so she didn’t refuse Xiao Tianyao’s kindness.

So, when Lin Chujiu came back, she only saw Xiao Tianyao and heard that Meng Laofuren‘s was resting in her room. Lin Chujiu didn’t went to her grandmother, instead, she bowed her head to Xiao Tianyao and said: “Wangye, thank you for today’s event.”

Without Xiao Tianyao’s cooperation, Meng Laofuren will definitely not believe her words that easily.

“No need, we are couples.”He didn’t cooperate with her today. Every action he took is sincere. However… … he knows that Lin Chujiu will not believe it.

And just like what he’s expecting, Lin Chujiu only said: “Oh” and no longer speak again. 

Meng Laofuren is not in the same room as them, so she doesn’t need to act naive or happy. But, because she could throw Xiao Tianyao out, all she could do is stay with him and sit.

After staying silent for a long time, Lin Chujiu felt bored. So, she unconsciously taps her finger over the table and thinks about Third Prince Xiao Zian’s condition.

When she checked Third Prince Xiao Zian‘s condition before, the medical system cannot diagnose his illness. So right now, she wonders if Divine Doctor Mo was able to find out his disease.

Lin Chujiu had researched about some incurable disease in her previous life. So, it can be said that she’s not afraid to encounter incurable disease, instead, she wanted to overcome and discover each one of them. And if only he’s not from the royal family, she will certainly do an experimentation until she cures him. But… …

It’s a pity……

“Pity, what?” Xiao Tianyao who is silent for a long time suddenly said. So, Lin Chujiu got startled and stared at him blankly.

Xiao Tianyao patiently repeated: “You said it’s a pity, what’s that all about?”

It turns out that with Lin Chujiu’s carelessness, she accidentally said her words out loud.
