"I've told you so much just to tell you that if you like me, you should accept all my strengths and weaknesses, and you can't ask me to do anything I don't want to do." Jiang Chuyue bent down to keep their eyes at the same level, her face serious.

Xiao Yihao met Jiang Chuyue's serious eyes and suddenly smiled. Jiang Chuyue felt that he was a little strange. Before she could open her mouth, she heard Xiao Yihao say.

"I know very well that I like you just the way you are now. You are yourself. You can do whatever you want. I will not restrict you, nor will I ask you to do anything. You are free."

Jiang Chuyue's pupils shrank slightly. She didn't expect Xiao Yihao to say such a thing. She believed that she was not a traditional woman in feudal society. Her world was between heaven and earth, not in a small house.

She also knew that in this feudal society's world of stories, there were only a handful of men who met her requirements and did not restrict her in the backyard. She also knew that Xiao Yihao was also a traditional man. He could say such words. She didn't know if it would be the same in the future, but he was sincere at the moment.

"You are free too. You don't have to be restrained by this matter. Just keep a normal mind and be yourself." Jiang Chuyue came back to her senses, smiled and patted Xiao Yihao on the shoulder.

"Don't soak in cold water for too long, your body won't be able to handle it."

After saying that, Jiang Chuyue stood up, turned around and left the room, closing the door considerately. Just after taking two steps, she bumped into Liu Mo, who had been standing not far from the door.

"Shall we talk too?" Although Liu Mo had a smile on his face, this smile was really hard to understand. Jiang Chuyue had already guessed that Liu Mo would do this today, so she was not surprised.

"Okay." Follow Liu Mo's footsteps.

Perhaps because Liu Mo's face looked really bad, Aunt Zhang was afraid that Jiang Chuyue would suffer a loss, so she reached out to help her, and exchanged glances with Jiang Chuyue, concerned about what had happened.

"It's nothing, Aunt Zhang, I'll be back soon. But we have to come up with a solution to the problem of Yihao being drugged this time." Jiang Chuyue didn't want Aunt Zhang to worry, so she told a white lie. Aunt Zhang hesitated and slowly let go of Jiang Chuyue's arm.

"Then come back soon." He reminded her worriedly.

Jiang Chuyue smiled comfortingly and followed Liu Mo's footsteps. Liu Mo was strolling slowly in Wanshan Village. Jiang Chuyue followed behind him at a leisurely pace. Halfway through, they met many villagers who had just returned from the fields and greeted Jiang Chuyue.

Many people also took the initiative to ask about Liu Mo's health, and Liu Mo and Jiang Chuyue patiently responded one by one.

"He agreed to take over Shuiyun Pavilion."

"I know." Jiang Chuyue nodded.

"He will leave Wanshan Village sooner or later."

Jiang Chuyue's understanding look made Liu Mo not know what to say next.

"You think I'm just a village woman. Although I have some skills and run a small business now, I can only use them in Wanshan Village. It's not good enough to show it outside, and I can't help Xiao Yihao, right?"

Jiang Chuyue didn't wait for Liu Mo to speak for a long time, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Since you understand, you should have explained it clearly to him just now." Liu Mo admitted that Jiang Chuyue did have some abilities and was a bit clever, but this was not enough in his eyes.

Xiao Yihao also has a connection with the Wenling Pavilion, but Jiang Chuyue is obviously not the one who can help him. If Xiao Yihao wants to gain a firm foothold in the Shuiyun Pavilion and have a place in the world in the future, Liu Mo's support alone is far from enough.

"You should say this to him, not to me." Jiang Chuyue knew clearly that Liu Mo always treated her as an outsider, but she didn't care. Even if Jiang Chuyue was asked to leave now, she could leave with the divorce papers in her pocket.

But deep down she still didn't want to leave. She had worked so hard for so long to make life better for this family and helped Xiao Yihao solve so many troubles. Now he wanted to send her away with just one sentence?

"He admires you now, how could he agree?" Liu Mo knew it, so he wanted to start with Jiang Chuyue, but Jiang Chuyue was obviously not a weak person who could be bullied at will.

"Then why do you think I agreed?" Jiang Chuyue glanced at Liu Mo, "I treat you as an elder, so I always respect you, but you don't act like an elder at all. If I had known this, why would I save you and cause myself such trouble?"

The harsh tone made Liu Mo's face turn red.

Jiang Chuyue did save him, but Liu Mo is now really thinking about Xiao Yihao. "One thing is one thing. You saved me, so I will naturally repay you as much as I can. But Yihao took over Shuiyun Pavilion and had to face the covetous Lin Wu. Do you think he can really stand on his own?"

"Whether I can stand or not is my business, and has nothing to do with Chu Yue." Xiao Yihao appeared from the corner and approached step by step, "Mr. Liu, the matter between Chu Yue and me is our own business, please don't interfere. If you think I can't take over Shuiyun Pavilion, you can kick me out of the candidates."

Xiao Yihao really wanted to investigate what happened to his maternal grandfather, but he was unwilling to give up the person in front of him just for the sake of a past event.

If he really wanted to investigate, he naturally had other means and abilities, and he didn't have to rely on Shuiyun Pavilion. It's just that Shuiyun Pavilion is Xiao Yihao's best choice at the moment and the fastest way. But if Liu Mo insisted on doing so, he could also choose to take another path.

The other path may be difficult, but at least he can take it step by step by himself without being bound or restricted by anyone.

"Have you thought it through? If you don't take over Shuiyun Pavilion, it will be a question whether you can protect yourself when facing the pursuit of Wenling Pavilion in the future." Liu Mo frowned.

"Of course I've thought about it." When Xiao Yihao and Liu Mo looked at each other, Jiang Chuyue, who was originally the protagonist, lost her sense of presence.

"You win." Liu Mo suddenly turned his head and looked at Jiang Chuyue beside him.

"I know." Jiang Chuyue replied calmly.

After this incident, it was Xiao Yihao's turn to be unsure of what was going on. "What did you win?"

"I made a bet with her, betting on whether you would give up the Xiao family, her and the two children for Shuiyun Pavilion, for the current status and glory."

Liu Mo hopes that Xiao Yihao can put interests first so that he can have an easier road ahead in the future. But she also doesn't want him to abandon Jiang Chuyue and his two younger siblings for the sake of interests. Such a heartless person is really scary.

In the end, he decided to make a bet with Jiang Chuyue.
