Chapter 111
Chi Quan snorted and his expression returned to normal.

Gu Jiaojiao saw that the gloom between his brows and eyes had subconsciously dissipated, so she mustered up the courage to bring up the old matter again.

"Master, what are you going to do with those students?"

"killed."

Chi Quan's tone was understated. He always regarded human life as worthless, no matter who it was.

"That's not good, they are Miss Murong after all..."

"Gu Jiaojiao."

Hearing Chi Quan call her by name and surname, Gu Jiaojiao swallowed the rest of the words, and was as quiet as a chicken beside him.

"I don't want to hear Murong Ling's name from your mouth again."

"That Jiaojiao will not be mentioned in the future."

Gu Jiaojiao had long been used to Chi Quan's moodiness, and immediately followed his words.

Just when Gu Jiaojiao was racking her brains to think about how to make Chi Quan change her mind, a guard rushed over.

"Dutong, Miss Murong is back, she is in Xiyuan now, she said she wants to see you."

Since Murong Ling was able to come back, it seems that she was not held hostage by bandits, but she sneaked away by herself while taking advantage of the chaos.

Gu Jiaojiao wanted to follow to see the excitement, but she was worried that Chi Quan would not let her go, so she stopped and stood there, hesitating.

Chi Quan noticed that Gu Jiaojiao hadn't followed, and looked at her sideways.

Seeing Chi Quan's eyes, Gu Jiaojiao immediately understood what he meant, and ran over with a wide smile.

When the two arrived at Xiyuan, Murong Ling had been waiting in the front hall for a long time. When she saw Chi Quan appear, she clenched her fingers into fists and wrinkled the hem of her clothes deeply.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have run away."

Chi Quan didn't seem to hear what Murong Ling said, and sat down on the chair without changing his face.

He picked up the cup, and Gu Jiaojiao hurried over to pour him tea.

Murong Ling glanced at Gu Jiaojiao, bit her lip, and knelt on the ground with a plop.

"I am willing to dedicate myself, and I beg the governor to forgive me and let my classmates go."

Gu Jiaojiao looked at Murong Ling with a tragic face, and suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment in her mind.

No wonder Chi Quan didn't want to let him go. He was waiting here.

He expected Murong Ling to have deep affection, so he used this method to force her to compromise, so that Murong Ling would be willing to stay in the Dutong Mansion in the future.

Tsk, scheming dog.

Gu Jiaojiao pursed her mouth, feeling that this bowl of dog food was particularly unpalatable, and regretted why she came to Dutong Mansion.

However, to Gu Jiaojiao's surprise, Chi Quan didn't agree, not even a slight ups and downs in his voice.

"I'm not interested in your body. Since I've already left, I don't have to go back to the Dutong Mansion in the future."

"Then why did you arrest them?"

Murong Ling's lips trembled slightly. She was ready to sacrifice, but she was mercilessly rejected by the other party.

Chi Quan picked up the cup, his sharp face reflected against the calm water.

"The majesty of the Dutong Mansion cannot be offended."

This sentence is Chi Quan's explanation.

He didn't arrest those students just to make Murong Ling bow his head, but they were indeed guilty.

Gu Jiaojiao looked at Chi Quan's perfect side face, and a trace of complexity flashed across her eyes.

She suddenly felt that she didn't understand Chi Quan. Why did he lock him up for a few months if he wasn't interested?

Murong Ling's face was pale, she looked up at the man who held the power of life and death, tears streaming down her face.

"They are just eager to save me, and they don't intend to offend you. I am willing to bear all the guilt alone."

Gu Jiaojiao couldn't bear it, and lightly poked Chi Quan's shoulder with her fingertips.

"Master, since those people are first-time offenders, you should spare them this time."

Chi Quan put the teacup on the table, and the piercing sound of the porcelain colliding made one's heart tighten.

"It seems that I have been too indulgent on weekdays, making you ignorant of the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth."

If it was an ordinary person, he would have knelt down in fright and begged for mercy when he heard Chi Quan say that.

Gu Jiaojiao's eyes flickered, instead of shrinking back, she pressed half of her body against it.

She rubbed the back of her finger against Chi Quan's side face, and breathed Rulan into his ear.

"Anyway, the Lord has pampered her so many times, and this time, if you show mercy, treat it as fulfilling Jiaojiao's wish."

Chi Quan grabbed Gu Jiaojiao's wrist, pulled her off his body, stood up from the chair and stretched his long legs expressionlessly.

"Miss Murong, go back first, I'll figure out a way."

Gu Jiaojiao spoke quickly to Murong Ling, caught up with Chi Quan, and wrapped his arms around him.

"Master, why are you leaving in such a hurry, wait for Jiaojiao."

Gu Jiaojiao is clearly confident, she can see that Chi Quan really likes her.

Although he has said a lot of threatening words, in fact he has never taken a serious action.

Chi Quan didn't shake Gu Jiaojiao away again, and smiled on the surface, "Since you care about those students so much, why don't I send you to jail to be with them."

"Will the master visit Jiaojiao often?"

Gu Jiaojiao curled her lips and smiled like a flower, she didn't look worried at all.

"What do you think."

Chi Quan's tone was sarcastic, and he was too lazy to answer this stupid question.

Gu Jiaojiao pretended to think seriously for a while, then nodded seriously.

"I'm sure I'll go there often. After all, Jiaojiao is gone, so I'm so bored."

Before Chi Quan could react, Gu Jiaojiao laughed by herself, and the clear laughter like a bell spread out, with a kind of magic power to confuse people's hearts.

"Master, Jiaojiao is a bit tired, can you carry me on your back for a while?"

This time, Chi Quan didn't give Gu Jiaojiao a chance to push his nose to the face, and he didn't stop walking.

"Go back when you're tired."

"Jiaojiao doesn't want to go anywhere, she just wants to stay by your side."

Gu Jiaojiao hummed and acted like a baby, she looked at the long shadows of the two on the ground, her beautiful eyes were dotted with broken stars.

When Chi Quan heard Gu Jiaojiao's words, his eyes were lowered, and he saw the slight curvature of her lips.

His heart moved slightly, and his arms hugged the person horizontally before his brain could react.

Gu Jiaojiao let out a low exclamation, she subconsciously hugged Chi Quan's neck tightly, and pressed her cheek against his shoulder.

"That was the first time we met in Liyuan. You hugged me like this. At that time, I was thinking, it would be great if you could take me out."

Gu Jiaojiao's voice was full of smiles, Chi Quan's arm was very strong, and she wasn't worried at all that she would be thrown off.

Chi Quan didn't speak, only Gu Jiaojiao drifted away in the silent garden with a faint bitter voice.

"At that time, I really envied Miss Murong. She didn't have to do anything to stay by your side. Unlike me, I couldn't get your attention even though I tried my best."

"Does Dutong also think that I am vain? But if I was really that kind of person, I wouldn't have rejected Huang Shenling back then. Even being a short-lived concubine in his backyard is better than being a laughing stock in the troupe."

"It is said that actors are ruthless, but who really understands that we can't help ourselves, we are just poor people played by fate..."
