Chapter 45 -45: How did you get tied up!

Ge Guifen saw Zhou Shuyan utterly unwilling to move and decided to take action herself, only to find, once her hand was placed on Zhou Shuyan’s arm, that he was incredibly solid. Just by touching, she could tell he was very strong.

Far more so than Lu Zhenjia.

Of course, Lu Zhenjia was older and a lazybones. Even though he had his own land, he spent less time working it than she did, not to mention he paled in comparison to Lu Zhenguo, whose flesh was loose on his body.

But Ge Guifen, having worked in the fields all year round and taking care of all household chores, had developed considerable strength.

Ordinary men who exercised less would likely struggle to match her.

Yet at this moment, when Ge Guifen tried to forcefully drag Zhou Shuyan aside, she found she wasn’t able to budge him!

At this point, Ge Guifen was even beginning to question life itself.

Lu Youxi was so strong that she had dragged her away with ease.

And now, when it was her turn, she couldn’t even pull Zhou Shuyan aside!

Lu Youxi turned around, saw Ge Guifen’s actions, and shouted with a sneer, “Auntie, I know Xu Mai is good-looking, but he’s your nephew-in-law. Be mindful of the distance and influence, don’t take the chance to take advantage of Xu Mai.”

As soon as this came out of Lu Youxi’s mouth, it infuriated Ge Guifen beyond words.

Even Zhou Shuyan couldn’t help but laugh at Lu Youxi’s words.

To take down Ge Guifen, Lu Youxi really would say anything.

Now, the more Zhou Shuyan looked at Ge Guifen, the more something seemed off.

Although he knew Lu Youxi’s intention was to mock Ge Guifen, Zhou Shuyan subconsciously took a step back, his desire to keep a distance from Ge Guifen couldn’t be more obvious.

Ge Guifen: “…”

“Shameless! At your age, you’re still trying to take advantage of a young man!” The villagers watching the excitement outside immediately started shouting uproariously.

“Xu Mai does look good, ha! He’s quite popular in our village!”

“Indeed, there’s no shame in liking beauty; I’ve even told my spouse how good-looking Xu Mai is. But admiration is one thing, you can’t take advantage of it in reality! Especially at such an old age, that’s really shameless.”

“This is exactly the sort of thing Ge Guifen is capable of. Taking advantage of Old Master Lu’s family, not sparing even the children Lu Youxi and Lu Youxue, and trying to marry her niece to Foolish Hu—such shameless acts show there’s nothing she wouldn’t do.”

“Sh!” Someone hissed, “Lu Zhenjia is still around, and Ge Guifen dares to make a move directly!”

“Don’t spout nonsense!” Now Ge Guifen couldn’t care less about continuing to drag Zhou Shuyan away.

She hastily turned around and shouted at those outside, “Have you no decency?!”

“You sold Lu Youxi to Foolish Hu and took the betrothal money to get your son a wife, and you don’t feel indecent, but accuse us of being indecent?!” Aunt Lin retorted from the crowd.

When it came to arguing, Aunt Lin truly had a talent.

“Tch!” Ge Guifen, hopping mad, “You speak without evidence! Say less, or I’ll call the police on you!”

“Sh!” The crowd agitated again. “Lu Youxi herself said you fancied Xu Mai and took the opportunity to take advantage of him.”

This reminded Ge Guifen that if it weren’t for Lu Youxi raising this issue, she wouldn’t have been talked about like this.

Angrily turning around, Ge Guifen cursed Lu Youxi, “What nonsense are you spouting, you wretched girl, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”

But Zhou Shuyan stood before her, and how could he allow her to get past? Once more, he blocked Ge Guifen’s way.

This time, Ge Guifen no longer had the heart to make a move.

The gossip from the people outside knew no bounds.

Ge Guifen still had to consider the face of the Lu family.

Zhenjia was one to hold grudges and retaliate for even the slightest slight.

Even if Zhenjia knew she was wrongly accused, there would be an inevitable quarrel when they got back.

Ge Guifen could only turn to Zhenjia and say, “Youbang’s dad, come and pull this kid away!”

Zhenjia, of course, knew that Ge Guifen was falsely accused. At this moment, not taking it to heart, he stepped forward to pull Zhou Shuyan away.

But in the meantime, Lu Youxi had already arrived at the door of the room where Lu Youxue was being kept.

Separated by the door, Lu Youxi could hear the muffled “woo-woo” sounds more clearly.

Sounds like Youxue!

Lu Youxi’s face changed, and she hurriedly pushed the door open.

Lu Youzhen didn’t have the key to this door. Moreover, having just heard Lu Youxi returning, she hurried out in a panic, only managing to shut the door tightly without locking it and unable to bolt it from the inside.

Thus, the door was immediately pushed open by Lu Youxi.

The door burst open with a loud “bang.”

The room was small, and without entering, the whole interior could be seen.

Without yet stepping in, Lu Youxi could see Lu Youxue tied to a chair, his mouth stuffed with a cloth gag.

At that moment, Youxue lay on the floor, seemingly trying to crawl out.

Hearing the sound of the door, Youxue desperately looked towards it. Seeing it was Youxi, he became excitedly continuous “wooing,” struggling more fiercely.

“Youxue!” Lu Youxi shouted his name. While she was anxious for Youxue, she didn’t forget to loudly inform the village chief and the onlookers outside about the person inside, “How did you get tied up!”

“What? What happened?” The crowd outside couldn’t see what was happening, hearing only Lu Youxi’s words, they were all shocked and curious.

Hearing this, the village chief was alarmed and hastily followed after Lu Youxi.

Shuyan glanced at Guifen and hastily ran over as well.

Lu Youxi had already entered the room to untie Youxue.

Having been tied up for so long, and with Youxue’s strength, Youzhen worried she wouldn’t contain him, thus she tied the knots exceptionally tight.

Youxue hadn’t stopped struggling, and now with the hot weather and wearing only a short-sleeve undershirt.

His exposed arms and wrists were marked with red and purple from the rope.

Seeing Lu Youxi, tears of urgency appeared in the corners of Youxue’s eyes.

He had heard everything while inside the room—Youxi wouldn’t marry Foolish Hu, and at last, Youxue had felt some relief.

The tears now were purely born of his frantic state.

Seeing the rope burns on Youxue’s arms and wrists, Youxi immediately knew he must have struggled fiercely, causing the marks to deepen and chafing the skin.

“Youxue!” Zhenjia and Liu Yushu rushed in, seeing Youxue’s condition, Yushu let out a cry and hurriedly embraced him.

“When I came in, Youxue was tied to a chair and fell to the ground, struggling,” Lu Youxi got to her feet and explained to the village chief.

At this point, the Zhenjia couple and Youzhen came over, their eyes shiftily betraying their guilt.

Old Madam Lu and Old Master Lu remained outside.

Seeing Youxue’s condition, the village chief urgently said, “Hurry, take Youxue to the village clinic.”

“I won’t go,” Youxue spoke up, his mouth had been blocked for so long, his saliva dried up by the gag, now his voice was hoarse and dry, “at least not now.”

Youxue glared hatefully at the Zhenjia family of three, pointing at them, he said, “Today Foolish Hu’s family brought gifts over to discuss marrying my sister. I wanted to object, but my auntie and Youzhen bound me here.”
