After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 369

After the bandits outside the door cursed and left, Gu Ying hurriedly let Gu Shuang sit down on the stool.

Gu Shuang's breathing was rapid, and the blood on her shoulders was increasing. She was in so much pain that she kept biting her lips, but she was still worriedly looking at the pregnant Gu Ying, "Sister, I hurt so badly... Don't take care of me, just let me die here."

"Don't worry, you'll be fine, you won't die. Sister will protect you, dear," Gu Ying said.

Gu Ying herself was also not feeling well. After a bumpy journey here, her stomach was a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the baby was over four months now, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

She went outside to ask for golden sore medicine. The little minions outside originally refused to give it to her. It was only when she threatened and tempted them that the person reluctantly threw the golden sore medicine and gauze in.

It was a bit cold on the mountain at night. No matter how good this room was, it couldn't compare to the fragrant boudoir in the Bo Mansion. The gaps in the wooden window were wider than a fist, and the cold wind blew in from the outside, hitting people's faces, and Gu Shuang felt that her facial skin was tight.

She endured it for a while without screaming out in pain. She wiped away her tears, looked up and stared seriously at her second sister who was busy with her shoulders.

"Sister, what should we do now?"

Even if we live, what's the use...

She was an unmarried young lady from a good family. Now she was taken by a group of bandits to this place. If this was spread out, it would be better to just die in this mountain stronghold. But her sister fell into danger because of her, so she couldn't leave her sister behind.

Although Gu Ying was not panicking, she didn't dare to pull out the arrow rashly either. She lowered her head to look at Gu Shuang's big eyes filled with moisture, and comforted, "Don't worry, I've already asked Yan Lan to go to uncle's house to report. My maid Yin Zhu is at the Ye family. She knows martial arts. After Yan Lan goes, she will let Yin Zhu find a way to send a letter to the palace. By then, the prince will come to save us."

Gu Shuang's face was as pale as paper. She responded with a murmur.

The wound on her shoulder hurt too much. In order not to make her sister worry, she endured it.

In the past, she always thought that she was still a little girl who hadn't grown up, but tonight, seeing her pregnant sister fall into the bandits' den with her, she finally realized deeply that she should grow up and can't always let her sister protect her.

Thinking of this, she endured the pain and hurriedly pulled Gu Ying to sit down, "Sister, you should sit down and rest too. Shuang is not afraid of death... Shuang will protect sister and little prince..."

Gu Ying stroked her belly and chuckled, "Little fool, I'm your sister. How can it be your turn to protect me?"

Gu Shuang smiled palely and held Gu Ying’s hand tightly. Her heart felt warm and fuzzy, "Sister is so nice to me..."

She was really glad that her mother and second sister had a good relationship, and that she didn't oppose her second sister like Gu Wan and the others.

"Sister, why does this Qingfeng Stockade chieftain want me?" Gu Shuang asked in bewilderment.

Gu Ying affirmed, "Maybe just for money."

Gu Shuang was very confused. "He said someone paid him 50,000 taels of silver to buy my life. Who would spend so much money? Besides, I have always kept a low profile. It seems like I haven't offended anyone either... Who exactly wants to harm me?"

Gu Ying narrowed her eyes slightly and stroked the little girl's hair. Her heart was not calm.

Mu Nanfeng was not an ordinary bandit. His appearance was too unusual.

It was as if someone had deliberately found him and asked him to kidnap Gu Shuang to achieve some purpose.

But Gu Shuang was just a little-known young lady. Why would he do this for 50,000 taels of silver?

A flash of inspiration suddenly crossed her mind. Gu Ying's heart thumped uneasily. She felt some answer was imminent, but just then, there was a sudden bang bang bang of footsteps at the door, interrupting her train of thought.

Someone stopped at the door, kicked it open, and walked in arrogantly.

Gu Shuang was startled and instinctively stood up to shield Gu Ying behind her. Her small face stubbornly looked up at the person coming in, "You... What do you want to do... Don't come near me... I, I, I will fight you!"

Mu Nanfeng was followed by four mountain bandits with knives. Covered in the smell of blood, their faces looked fierce and evil.

To him, Gu Shuang's words were like child's play. A bloodthirsty person like him would not take it to heart at all.

But she was cute and her skin was delicate. Although she looked miserable with her injuries, she seemed even more pitiful. It made people want to ravage and humiliate her even more.

More interest appeared in his eyes as he looked at Gu Shuang up and down with a crooked smile. He walked towards her one step at a time.

Gu Shuang was extremely scared. Her face turned even paler as she bravely stood her ground without backing away.

"Chief Mu," Gu Ying called out calmly and unhurriedly, stopping him. "Don't you want the 100,000 taels anymore?"

"Of course I want it! 100,000 taels, only a fool wouldn't want it," Mu Nanfeng's face immediately showed an unsightly smile when he heard 100,000 taels. But this kind of non-smile on his fierce and sinister face looked particularly creepy.

Gu Ying remained calm in crisis and even smiled. "Shall we talk?"

Mu Nanfeng actually quite admired Gu Ying. With such a world-shocking exquisite face, facing them—a group of unscrupulous bandits, her expression didn't change one bit.

Such a strong-minded girl should not be underestimated.

He had an unsightly smile at the corner of his mouth as he walked over to sit in front of her.

With the small wooden table between them, they looked at each other face to face. Gu Ying was not inferior as she sat upright and straight.

"What does Mrs. Zhao want to talk to me about?" Mu Nanfeng asked mockingly.

Gu Ying pointed at Gu Shuang, "Let's talk about her."

Mu Nanfeng raised his eyebrows, "What is there to talk about her? Don't worry, Mrs. Zhao, I certainly won't kill her. She looks pretty good. I’ll keep her in Qingfeng Stockade to be my mistress and have seven or eight sons for me. I won't mistreat her. And after she marries me, you and I will become relatives. I'll even have to call you sister."

Gu Shuang, who stood beside Gu Ying, trembled with anger, but didn't dare speak out.

Gu Ying held her cold little hand and smiled faintly at Mu Nanfeng's mocking eyes. "Is Chief Mu joking? My fourth sister is engaged to Master Fu. Everyone in Bianjing knows about this. Their wedding is scheduled for late April and early May."

Mu Nanfeng looked as if he had known it all along and said indifferently, "It doesn’t matter. As long as it's a woman I want, no matter if she's engaged or not, I'll snatch her! After tonight, she Gu Shuang will be my woman anyway."

When Gu Shuang heard this, her face turned even paler. She endured her anger and didn't dare talk back.

Gu Ying asked, "So may I ask, what does Chief Mu like about my fourth sister? And when did you start liking my fourth sister?"

Mu Nanfeng was rendered speechless for a moment by her questions. "It’s none of your business. I just want your sister to be my daughter-in-law!"

Gu Ying muttered in contemplation, "So Chief Mu doesn't like my fourth sister, but under someone else's temptation of 50,000 taels of silver, you want to forcibly take her as your wife?"

Mu Nanfeng sneered. "That 50,000 taels was to buy her life. I’m keeping her because she looks good. I’m giving her a chance."
