C319 (2/2)

As for the others, when they found out about her identity, most of them were already dissatisfied and would not say it out loud. They would definitely treat her well, seeing as how she was a president of the Mercenary Guild who could not afford to offend her.

She ran all the way here in just a day and she was already covered by so many people's malicious intent. Lin Qi felt even more wronged the more she thought about it, and grinded his teeth in anger and dissatisfaction.

Lin Qi gave a heavy snort, ”No need, I will handle this matter myself, you guys don't have to worry about it.”

”But, Young Lord.”

”I told you not to bother!”

Lin Qi angrily turned her head back to her room, and with a 'bang', she closed the door, once she sat back down, she saw a pile of books on the table.

On the other side of the room, Jian Mo was in her room. When Jian Mo entered the room, he wanted to pull Yan Xiao's hand, but Yan Xiao stopped and sat back down, flipping through some books.

Jian Mo's lips moved, and directly moved a chair to sit beside Yan Xiao. Yan Xiao did not hide, but did not seem to welcome him either.

Jian Mo placed both of his hands on his thighs, and then slowly clenched his fists. Looking at Yan Xiao, his throat rolled as she said: ”Xiao'er, it's fine if you give me an hour.

There were still a few pages that she did not bother with. After she finished reading it, under Jian Mo's fiery gaze, she closed the book and said with an indifferent expression: ”Speak.”

As he said that, he even poured himself a cup of tea. Under Jian Mo's deep gaze, he ignored Jian Mo's expression and was a little disappointed, but he still did not blink when he looked at Yan Xiao.

Jian Mo seemed to be mulling over something as a deep look gradually replaced the look in his eyes. He slowly said, ”I must explain clearly to you that Lin Qi and I are indeed not an unmarried couple. But back then, the guild leader did mention it, but at that time, I had already refused it. ”

Yan Xiao slightly raised her brows, as if she did not believe it.

Jian Mo said: ”It's true, back then I had the reason of cultivating, I did not want to consider refusing with regards to my daughter's feelings.”

Yan Xiao laughed: ”Someone would not take your refusal seriously.”

Jian Mo said: ”No, if I say no, then there will be no later rejection.”

Yan Xiao did not mind, but what did you think?

Furthermore, Jian Mo was not that old. In this continent, because of cultivation, marriage between a man and a woman could be considered young, and was even a little extreme.

Those who were married earlier were mostly because the two families had some sort of mutual interest. After getting married, both families would benefit, and they would even try to persuade the younger generation members of both families to get married. As for those who had a room at such a young age, this was quite common. They definitely wouldn't be able to afford anything like this. Even some of the principal wives wouldn't care too much about it.

Some cultivators didn't want to be distracted with their cultivation, so they didn't want to get married early.

It was not that he did not succeed. In these two extreme situations, there was nothing extraordinary about it.

Jian Mo was very beautiful, with only one daughter in the Mercenary Guild. Could it be that he had thought of finding someone who he could trust to inherit his clan? This matter was hard to say, but Yan Xiao thought that the Mercenary Guild president must have thought of it before. If he could take Jian Mo in as his foster son, then he would definitely be satisfied. Otherwise, if he could take care of Jian Mo wholeheartedly, Jian Mo's strength would not be low, so could it be that did not put in effort at all?

One was his own daughter, while the other was his foster son. He understood his own limits, so even if he married his daughter to this person, he wouldn't be worried.

Forget about Mercenary Guild Guild Master, even Yan Xiao felt that this was a good marriage.

Yan Xiao's expression was straight and white. Jian Mo seemed to be a little angry: ”Why can't you believe me? What I said was the truth. I rejected her at that time. Since I will confess to you, naturally, I will not bring such a despicable thing along with you. I have nothing between Lin Qi and I. ”

Yan Xiao nodded: ”I know, you guys are innocent, I saw it.”

Jian Mo's eyebrows wrinkled into a scrunch as he looked deeply at Yan Xiao: ”But you don't believe me at all!”

Yan Xiao said: ”Actually, I do not wish to discuss this topic with you. I feel that there is no meaning. Actually, the two of us haven't known each other for long, and our relationship wasn't that deep. Since Lin Qi is here, isn't it perfect for him? If you have more time to think about which one is best for you, isn't that better? ”

Jian Mo grabbed Yan Xiao's hand: ”But you're already retreating. You're not doing this for my own good, you've already found a way out for yourself. ”After this period of time, you won't step out again. At that time, you won't even listen to me anymore.”

Yan Xiao withdrew his hand. ”Jian Mo, don't forget, we were only trying it out in the first place, I wasn't sure if we should give it to you!”
