Chapter 160
Chapter 160
The child didn't cry or make a fuss, and nestled quietly in Si Tong's arms.
The little woman left as soon as she said she would, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
There was no other way, Si Tong could only take the child and follow the marks left by Cen Ye to find his way back.
. . .
Si Tong stood in front of Jin You holding the child, feeling a little awkward, and tilted her head, not daring to look at Jin You's eyes.
"Heh~" Jinyou laughed sarcastically, "You lost such a big living person right in front of you?"
"She threw the child at me..."
"Tsk," Jinyou clicked his tongue, "You're quite good at making excuses for yourself."
Who wouldn't love their own child? Not all mothers are He Zhiyi.
Si Tong was completely speechless. That person had simply forced the child upon him! It wasn't like he wanted it! He couldn't explain himself.
But Si Tong couldn't understand why the young woman, who looked fine, aroused Jin You's suspicion?
He couldn't figure it out so he asked.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with her. She doesn't know martial arts, but she doesn't look like a bad person."
Jinyou shook his head. "She's not necessarily a bad person. My intuition tells me she might have a secret. She asked you to keep an eye on her, but she abandoned you! I see you're becoming less and less interested in martial arts. If Uncle Zhou were here, he'd only give you a beating."
Si Tong rubbed his arms and shuddered: "Don't mention my master, it's scary."
"If you continue like this, I will send a message to Uncle Zhou tomorrow."
Si Tong was most afraid of Fang Yizhou. He had been learning martial arts with him for more than ten years, and he would always be scolded for a move.
It's so hard for the old man to be away from the capital, and I've got a relaxing job. How long have I been relaxing? And you say his martial arts skills are rusty?
How can it be?
Well, even if he was a little slack, he couldn't tell on me!
Si Tong quickly straightened up and said anxiously, "I really haven't neglected my martial arts. Today was just an accident."
Jinyou looked at him and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. What about the child? I can't always take care of him."
Si Tong looked down at the child in his arms. The little guy was looking around curiously with his round eyes.
Si Tong's eyes rolled, and a plan came to his mind: "How about...send it to the government?"
"......" Jinyou rolled his eyes at him: "If you like this child, take it with you. With the child in your hands, that woman will come back to you."
"also."
The two of them temporarily decided on the child's place to go, intending to play the long game and catch a big fish.
On the other side, in the back hall of the county magistrate's office, Liu Ya was crying to a middle-aged man with tears and snot.
"Brother-in-law! I was bullied today. You have to stand up for me!"
"Oh? Who's so bold as to bully you?" Sun Chengshang slammed his teacup down on the table. "Who on earth doesn't take me seriously?"
Liu Ya was secretly delighted that his brother-in-law could stand up for him and teach those ignorant bodyguards a lesson.
They even dared to bargain with him. For a few hundred taels, he made them pay a heavy price!
Sun Chengshang glanced at Liu Ya. Didn’t he know his brother-in-law yet?
He takes advantage of the power of others to bully men and women, and is full of evil...but what can be done?
As Sun Chengshang's brother-in-law, I cannot embarrass him. How can I lose face in my own place?
Liu Ya's domineering behavior was also the result of Sun Chengshang's indulgence.
Sun Chengshang said, "Just tell me what happened. There's no need to hide anything."
Liu Ya chuckled. He knew his brother-in-law's personality, so he didn't hide anything and told him everything that happened after he met the young woman.
