Marriage in Midnight: Ghost Hubby - Chapter 21
Hua Xiaoxian felt that the world had truly changed and become extremely outrageous. The man who was originally cold and ruthless, always wanting to find a chance to destroy him, was laughing at him at this very moment. She was laughing as if she was an idiot who had just stepped into a relationship.
Needless to say, this whole weird process was real.
Hua Xiaoxian’s head was filled with black lines, she was almost stunned by Madam Lan’s words. When did she ever agree to marry her?
Just when Hua Xiaoxian wanted to take a closer look at this man who might be suffering from delusions, a light cough came from beside him.
It was only then that Hua Xiaoxian suddenly realized that there was actually someone standing next to him at some point, and she hadn’t realized it until now.
“Hello, old man!”
Hua Xiaoxian turned around and saw a silver-haired old man. His eyes shone with a brilliant light at this moment as he took two steps forward to close the distance between him and the old man. According to her guess, the old man in front of her was definitely not ordinary.
“Good?”
Lord Meng was clearly taken aback. He didn’t know that a little girl would suddenly appear in front of him to greet him. Perhaps this girl was too audacious, or perhaps she was too crazy.
“Old man, are you lost?”
“This old man has never been lost!”
Being polite, although he was a bit suspicious, he still opened his mouth to reply.
“No, could it be that I was wrong? You look like you’re in a dark place, your face is pale, your limbs are ice-cold. You look like you’ve been possessed by evil spirits, could it be that evil spirits have entered your body?” I just happen to have a precious jade that has been passed down throughout the world by my ancestors for ten thousand years. I find this elder pleasing to the eye, so I might as well help you out.
“‘s face instantly darkened, and he began to play with the family heirloom with one hand.
“This is?”
Elder Meng’s heart skipped a beat. He was moved by the girl’s sincerity. He raised his head to look at the jade in her hand. What was tightened was that the piece of jade actually had a Spirit Gathering effect. If one were to say that he was moved by the young girl’s care from the start, then at this moment, he was truly attracted by the Spirit Gathering Jade in the young girl’s hand.
This is the jade passed down in my family that has the ability to dispel evil spirits. Now that my daughter has been stuck here, I am ashamed to have found a fated person to sell this jade at a low price. If my grandfather likes it, then give me 700 thousand.
Hua Xiaoxian’s face was still filled with sincerity, and even a hint of reluctance, this move was still useful to her. She gave it all up, and it was obvious that the seven hundred thousand was already in her pocket, and she could see that the old man in front of her was extremely interested in the fake feet washing water in her hands. As long as she added fuel to the fire here, the 700 thousand would definitely be hers.
“700 thousand?”
Master Meng obviously didn’t know what was going on. He didn’t know what the 700 thousand the little girl was talking about was. He frowned and his expression instantly changed to one of hesitation.
“Grandfather, this price is unusually fair. As long as you bring along my family heirloom jade, you will definitely be able to get away with it. If you give it to your family, your family will be safe for the rest of their lives …”
Once again, Hua Xiaoxian spoke sincerely. She did not believe that with her skill in deceiving others, this old man who seemed to have already started to lose his mind would not be fooled.
He couldn’t stop laughing sinisterly, but his face still looked as if he had suffered a huge loss because he had sold himself.
“This …”
Initially, Young Master Meng only wanted to have a look, but after hearing that the little girl in front of him said she could protect her family, his eyes lit up, looking at Hua Xiaoxian from head to toe, sizing him up.
Suddenly, a thought appeared in his mind. He had been waiting for so many years, maybe this girl in front of him could return his wish and help him visit her.
Thinking about that, the look in Meng Gongzi’s eyes became even deeper. He was looking through Hua Xiaoxian at another person, but Hua Xiaoxian, who was standing, felt that the old man in front of him was not friendly at the moment. Could it be that the old man in front of him was an abnormal person?
“Little girl …”
Master Meng’s sudden voice caused Hua Xiaoxian to take a step back involuntarily. At this moment, Hua Xiaoxian started to feel afraid, all the various paedophilic old men on the television revolved around in Hua Xiaoxian’s mind.
But at this time, a hand suddenly hugged Hua Xiaoxian from behind. In the next moment, Hua Xiaoxian was completely shocked and shouted loudly, “Pervert, just go and dream on, I definitely won’t be that Madam Lan of yours.”
She was thoroughly enraged, but was still unable to struggle free from it. She could not see Lan Ming’s face, but for some reason, she could still feel the kind of aura that made her feel uncomfortable.
Even if he didn’t look, Hua Xiaoxian knew that the person who was holding him was that damnable Lan Ming.
“Xian’Er, don’t be too complacent, there will be a day when I, Lan Ming, will make you willingly marry me.”
The declaration of love and dominance was like lightning that struck Hua Xiaoxian’s heart. At this moment, Hua Xiaoxian was completely shocked, and completely forgot to struggle as though she was a wooden chicken. This feeling was a little familiar, and even made Hua Xiaoxian feel a little guilty in her heart, as if she really owed Lan Ming, who was holding him, a marriage.
Even Hua Xiaoxian didn’t believe that the Lan Ming before her truly expressed love for him in the slightest. The ice-cold pain in her heart seemed to have completely frozen her, and’s ice-cold abandonment made her heart, which originally opened for love, abruptly shatter in the next moment.
Her heart had originally throbbed, and that faint sense of guilt had been instantly covered by the shattered ice. She, Hua Xiaoxian, would no longer be moved by emotions for any man.
He did not turn his head, but a trace of perseverance and decisiveness appeared in his eyes at some point. With his back facing Lan Ming, he enunciated each word.
“I don’t know where your confidence came from, but I’ll also tell you this. In my eyes, you are undoubtedly the culprit who made him abandon me. No matter what you do today, I will tell you clearly and thoroughly that I will never love you, and will never become anything like you.”
