My Beautiful Wife, Please Give Me Some Pin Money! - Chapter 39 - Threat

Proofread by Claire.KK

Geng Zhishan was in a complete daze since he was well aware of the importance of this bracelet to Xie Mengxuan. After a while, he took it over. “You don’t dread me impersonating the young gentleman from the Xie family with it?”

“It’s of great significance to me, but it’s not the sole token so that there’s no chance for impersonation. If you go to the Xie family with this bracelet, those people will report to the master.”

‘She even takes the future into consideration.’ Geng Zhishan thought to himself. A token…It would be much better as a token of love.

It was really a pity, but he carefully put it away. “If we part from each other, I’m bound to find you.”

Afterwards everyone would go to their respective places.

He was so serious that Xie Mengxuan let out a sigh of relief. It was just as well. As long as he promised to leave here, even though they would be apart, she was going to ensure him a peaceful life upon reunion. It was within her reach.

Geng Zhishan gave her a broad hint in his eyes, which made Xie Mengxuan turn her head for shyness. She’d better give him no hope since she was incapable of responding to him.

She stood up and patted Geng Zhishan on the shoulder. “Remember what you’ve said, and I can’t wait for tomorrow to come.”

“Rest assured. I don’t want to die. If I could, I’m willing to live on.” Geng Zhishan looked up at Xie Mengxuan.

The rest words were unspoken. It was “in your company”.

Although he didn’t make it clear, Xie Mengxuan was dimly aware so that she curved her lips into a smile. A little bit embarrassed, she blurted out a goodbye and turned away to have a rest in the room.

Calm was doomed to be lost tomorrow. It was necessary for her to maintain strength.

The sky was heavily overcast, and the crackling of the pouring rain was depressing.

Geng Zhishan was sitting still after she left. A dark figure flashed through the curtains of rain as if the eyes were just blurred.

Fortunately, Gu Yusheng and Uncle Luo had went out to make arrangements for tomorrow; otherwise, some secrets of Geng Zhishan were likely to be discovered.

Geng Zhishan stood up and dusted off his clothes. He idly took an umbrella and then went to a small place behind the kitchen.

The umbrella was pressed so low that it covered not only his face but also the black-clad man next to him.

“Do we need to make any preparations for tomorrow?” The man lowered his voice just in case walls had ears.

Geng Zhishan rolled the umbrella and after a long while he said in a hushed voice. “There’s no hurry. Watch in secret, and take action when there’s an unexpected event.”

He took a step towards the side and asked in a deep voice. “Have you found any information about Gu Yusheng?”

“There’s no weak point.” The man in black, namely Goshawk, didn’t change his tone even though he was soaked in the rain.

Geng Zhishan could not help furrowing his eyebrows. “I see. Is there any news from the master?”

Goshawk lifted his eyes. “Our master orders us to protect Xie Mengxuan as possible as we can, which is the only request from the Xie family.”

During this period, the order had been around the ears of Geng Zhishan. He slowly lifted the umbrella, looking directly into the eyes of Goshawk. “What happened in the Imperial Capital?”

Goshawk lowered his eyelids to avoid eye contact. “I can’t tell you. Just mind your own business, regardless of anything else.”

The eyes of Geng Zhishan dimmed. For his sake, his contact with the master depended on Goshawk. But for the master had repeatedly ensured his reliability, he was bound to doubt whether Goshawk had been bought off.

“In addition, Aunt Cui has met a man in white before, but I’ve failed to see his face since he wore a bamboo hat.”

“I see. Go.”

Although Geng Zhishan hadn’t notice the information from Goshawk, he was already aware. After all, if Aunt Cui was aiming at him, why did she wait till now? There must be someone behind the scene.

Geng Zhishan slowly walked towards the house. The instant he folded the umbrella, Uncle Luo and Gu Yusheng came back in the heavy rain.

Looking at him, Gu Yusheng darkened his eyes. “Why don’t you sleep? What are you doing?”

Geng Zhishan raised his lips. “I’m just a little bit reluctant to leave here so that I wander around to have a look.”

Gu Yusheng strode forward. The rain fell down from his bamboo hat, some directly into the collar of Geng Zhishan who could not help trembling for the cold rain. “What’s wrong, Brother Gu?”

Gu Yusheng lowered his voice. “Don’t play the fool. You can deceive Xuan, but I won’t be taken in.”

With a blink, Geng Zhishan dimmed his eyes but wore a broad smile. “What? I don’t understand what you mean. Just make it clear.”

Gu Yusheng squinted his eyes. “It doesn’t matter. Tomorrow you’d better find a chance to run for your life. Otherwise…”

“But Meng has asked me to follow her. I always listen to her.” After thinking for a moment with his head low, Geng Zhishan looked as if butter wouldn’t melt in his mouth.

Gu Yusheng grinned hideously. “Do you know the end of those who stand in my way?”

It seemed that Geng Zhishan failed to understand the threat in his words. He blinked and continued in all seriousness. “No. What I know is that even if someone has put on a disguise for a long time, sooner or later will they take it off.”

The heart of Gu Yusheng jumped for his words. Had Geng Zhishan learned something? Staring at him, he has a strong motive for killing him.

A light flashed through the eyes of Uncle Luo who immediately went forward to halt him. “It’s too late, and we’d better have a rest.”

He turned to have a look at Geng Zhishan. “After tomorrow, we’re likely to be closely associated. Please spare his feelings, and save the words based on your own assumption.”

“Take it easy. I didn’t mean anything. I just drew an analogy.” Gu Yusheng put down the umbrella in his hand and returned to his room.

Uncle Luo forced Gu Yusheng into the room. With his eyes open wide, Gu Yusheng pointed to the outside. “He must have known something. We must kill him.”

“He can’t die, at least not now.” Standing in front of him, Uncle Luo said in a low voice.

Gu Yusheng took a deep breath and closed his eyes. “But you also heard his words. He seems to have learned something.”

Uncle Luo was impatient when he still looked alarmed. How could such a guy come to power in the Gu family? It was no wonder that Xie Mengxuan was chosen to be his wife.

After taking a deep breath, Uncle Luo lowered his voice. “You have to believe that your identity is perfect with no flaw. If he really knows something, why does he keep it to himself? Don’t forget that you’ve been recognized by Xie Mengxuan! The admission of the Xie family is your first step to go back to the Imperial Capital. Why do you care about others as she has already recognized you?”

Gu Yusheng was still worried. “But, if he strips off my mask, I’ll…”

“You can’t be exposed, and you can only be in this position. If you want to quit, inform me in advance so that we can send another one to replace you.” Uncle Luo grabbed Gu Yusheng on his collar. They were looking at each other. With a sinister look in his eyes, he said word by word. “Remember, whatever happens tomorrow, you can’t kill him in secret, in case give others a handle.”
