Chapter 1118: Hidden Thoughts
Zhou Jingui had given her a warning. He wanted Gu Xiaoxi to take the initiative to make a mistake. It would be best if she could directly kill Gu Xiaoxi.
Anyway, no one would care even if he died.
That was not all. Chief Zhou and Zhou Jingui felt that not only could they use this opportunity to get close to the Qiu family in the county, but they could also ruthlessly suppress the Chang family.
After some selection, they had their eyes on Chang Yaya.
Chang Yaya was a member of the Chang family, but her life was not very good. Her parents died when she was born. Her grandmother said that she was a jinx, causing her to have no friends since she was young. Even the Chang family avoided her.
Grandmother Chang did not like this granddaughter, but she only had one son, and that was the only granddaughter her son left behind. Hence, while she beat and scolded Chang Yaya, she could only rely on her. It could be said that she destroyed Chang Yaya’s reputation single-handedly, but she was also the one who raised Chang Yaya safely.
Two years ago, her grandmother passed away. She was the only one left in her family.
Such a candidate could not be more suitable. Chang Yaya was already at the age of marriage and did not have any elders to help her. It was normal for her to fancy the hardworking and willing Gu Xiaoxi.
The two of them would definitely not have a good ending after being caught in the act.
At that time, Hong Xiaoni could say to the Qiu family, “My family is poor and doesn’t have money to treat illnesses. My health fluctuates. Therefore, although I’ve been married to Gu Xiaoxi for nearly two years, I’ve never let him touch me. In the end, I didn’t expect him to be unable to hold back and find another girl. He’s free to look for her as long as he divorces me. He can look for anyone he wants. However, he’s afraid of being chased out of Great Rock Village by the Zhou family, so he can only trap me while having an ambiguous relationship with another girl…”
Yes, Hong Xiaoni and Gu Xiaoxi had been married for nearly two years and were still innocent.
It wasn’t that Hong Xiaoni didn’t want Gu Xiaoxi to touch her. It was just that she had started to pretend to be sick not long after she came to Great Rock Village. Gu Xiaoxi wasn’t a beast who insisted on becoming husband and wife with her when she was still sick.
However, Hong Xiaoni also wanted to leave a way out, so the two of them had been in-name husband and wife for so long.
Young Master Qiu had taken a fancy to her. When he heard that she was still a virgin, he would probably be even happier.
All the plans had been carefully thought out. They lured Gu Xiaoxi and Chang Yaya step by step into the trap.
Seeing that Chief Chang could only retreat step by step, the Chang family members were suppressed until they could not raise their heads.
Everything was perfect. As long as they went to the ancestral hall today and dragged the two of them out to be executed, the matter would be over.
He didn’t expect that… the person who was most unlikely to be saved actually had such a powerful backer.
However, it did not matter.
Hong Xiaoni’s eyes lit up. She was still Gu Xiaoxi’s wife. The Qiu family in the county was a wealthy family, but Gu Xiaoxi’s nephew-in-law was an official.
It was another multiple-choice question. Of course, she chose to be an official with money. Moreover, she was the main wife after all. It was better than being a concubine.
Most importantly, Hong Xiaoni had some hidden thoughts. She felt that… that man with a bow and arrow, who was an official of the imperial court at a young age, was handsome, majestic, and especially manly. He was much better than Young Master Qiu.
Perhaps he also liked a weak and boneless girl like her?
Compared to the domineering Gu Yundong, she was much more feminine.
Hong Xiaoni quickly walked to the Gu family’s door. The people guarding outside frowned at her.
Seeing that she was about to push the door open, the Chang family immediately stopped her.
“Wait. You’re not going in there.”
