After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum-Chapter 927 - 926: Outwitted by This Kid

Chapter 926: This Kid Played Me

Gu Ming sighed, "Uncle, you raised me, and I will take care of you in your old age. However, I don’t want my son’s marriage to be a transaction."

Grandpa Gu’s three goals were not achieved, and even the Yuan Nourishing Pills they collected were confiscated. Those were Yuan Nourishing Pills that could sell for 100,000 apiece on the market, yet that spendthrift returned them to Nan Mingzhu.

They left behind a few angry words, then stormed off.

Mengyu and Gu Dongxing exchanged a smile, having successfully teamed up to drive away Nan Mingzhu and the clan elders.

Though the clan elders and Nan Mingzhu would not let things rest, they were not afraid of them at all.

Seeing Gu Ming look at them with a loving gaze, it was clear he genuinely liked Gu Dongxing.

On an impulse, Mengyu took out a pill bottle and respectfully handed it to Gu Ming, "Uncle Gu, this is a Yuan Nourishing Pill with very few impurities. If you take one, you’ll live to your full lifespan without getting sick."

Gu Ming had seen Grandpa Gu and them become despondent after their Yuan Nourishing Pills were confiscated and knew they were certainly something good.

Yet, Mengyu actually gave such a good thing to him!

"This single Yuan Nourishing Pill, really won’t get sick for a lifetime?"

"Of course," Gu Dongxing gestured for him to take it quickly, while also checking around the room. It was obvious he was worried that once Yang Meiyin returned, the Pill wouldn’t end up in his father’s mouth.

Gu Ming, seeing his son’s concern for him, was filled with warmth, and promptly placed the Yuan Nourishing Pill in his mouth.

The Pill dissolved instantly, transforming into a warm current that flowed into his Dantian, then spread through his limbs and bones, and into his organs.

Only half an hour later, Gu Ming felt revitalized, his body rejuvenated.

He even felt that his mental and physical strength had returned to his younger days.

This feeling was wonderful.

"This Yuan Nourishing Pill is truly a good thing!" he couldn’t help but praise.

Gu Dongxing chuckled, "A pill worth 60 million, of course it’s good!"

Gu Ming was startled: what 60 million? Are they talking about the pill he just took?

His shocked gaze turned to Mengyu, wondering if he owed this girl 60 million.

Gu Dongxing felt a bit gleeful; he knew his father detested owing favors, and now that Mengyu was owed 60 million, would he dare object to his marriage with Mengyu, or dare not treat her well?

"Dad, just now the Yuan Nourishing Pills that Nan Mingzhu gave to Grandpa were ordinary ones, full of impurities. When martial artists consume them, their power temporarily boosts, but the impurities leave pill toxins in the body, so the side effects are significant. Hence, they only sell for 100,000 each on the market.

But the one Xiao Meng gave you was refined by an Ancient Method, with hardly any impurities, and a set of ten has auctioned for 600 million RMB at the Huaxia Dragon Auction, making each pill worth 60 million.

However, Dad, no need to worry about owing a favor, because Xiao Meng is your future daughter-in-law, and it’s only right for her to honor you."

The sly Gu Dongxing had an unsaid implication: she’s your daughter-in-law, and it’s her duty to honor you, but if she weren’t your daughter-in-law, then the favor you owe could be too large to repay!

Seeing the mysterious glint in Gu Ming’s eyes, Mengyu cried out in her heart, innocent! On her honor, she genuinely gave it out of affection for Gu Ming’s actions, simply to honor him, not to intentionally make him owe a favor.

Seeing his son’s expression like a cat that secretly ate a golden bird, Gu Ming now understood he had been duped by this kid.
