Chapter Twenty-Eight: I Do, That's the Reason
Hearing footsteps, both of them looked towards the door.
"Pearl, why are you here?"
Seeing the bulging green beads, Yao Jinmo was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat.
"Do you know I've been waiting for you all afternoon?" Green Bead moved a chair at the table and sat down next to the bed.
"I know, but I forgot." Yao Jinmo glanced at the green beads, and then smiled evilly.
Luzhu glared at him fiercely, I really didn't know if this person really forgot or teased her.
However, if you have to ask for help, you still have to lower your posture, Lu Zhu took a deep breath and slowly spoke: "Can you help find my mother?" β
"Oh?" Yao Jinmo narrowed his eyes and lengthened the last note: "You know, I never make a loss-making business. β
"Do you know who I am?" Lu Zhu seemed to have enough confidence before he spit out this sentence for a long time.
"I know, but it's just the Mei Clan." Yao Jinmo seemed to be talking about rare things, and replied calmly.
Lu Zhu was a little stunned, but after thinking for a moment, he realized it: "That's what the **** fell into the water to know, right?" β
Yao Jinmo was noncommittal.
"Now that you know who I am, I don't need to say anything. Let's make a deal between us, you help me find my mother, and I tell you where the holy place is, but whether you can succeed or not depends on yourself. β
Yao Jinmo raised his eyebrows, glanced at the green beads that he had sworn to, and replied funny: "I have no intention of dominating, I know what this holy land is for." Besides, who doesn't know that opening the Holy Land requires the guidance of the Mei Yan clan, if you insist on helping Ji Fuxi, I know what the use of the address is. Take 10,000 steps back and say, now that you have forgotten everything, how can you know where the holy place is, and when you find your mother, it is not certain how this transaction will end in the end. β
"As the future Yao Huang, what reason do you have to refuse this deal? If I find your mother, I still can't remember the past, and I will beg my mother to tell me. Lu Zhu was surprised by his thoughts, and also surprised by his sophisticated thoughts.
"Reason? I do, that's why. β
"Okay, put this aside, although Yao Guo and Jiang Guoqiang have joined forces, but only interests are talked about between countries, if you refuse like this, looking for a gap between your mother, if I am caught by other countries, not to mention Jiang Guo, even if it is a small country in the Central Plains, it will also cause the Central Plains forces to reshuffle. At that time, it was unknown what the situation of Yao Guo would be, and it would be absolutely impossible to act only according to his own will like now. And if you protect me all the way, you can abandon this worry, I don't owe Ji Fuxi anything, and I won't be stupid enough to kill myself to fulfill him. β
"You're so confident that I'll let you go?"
Lu Zhu's heart suddenly chuckled, cold sweat broke out on her back, her heart beat violently, and a word seemed like a lightning bolt that scorched her already not very firm heart.
Looking at the green beads with a pale face and speechless, Yao Jinmo suddenly laughed: "I'm in a good mood today, you offer some compensation, if I take a fancy to it, I will probably take over this loss-making deal." β
Lu Zhu looked at the man in front of him who did not play cards according to common sense suspiciously, thought for a moment, and then said curtly: "How about 100,000 taels of gold?" β
What Lu Zhu said in this sentence is actually very unconfident, but in addition to her identity as a Mei Yan clan, she has something else that can be put on the table, except for money, it seems that there is nothing left.
"Oh? The dignified Prince of Yao is only worth 100,000 taels of gold? Yao Jinmo raised his eyebrows, played with the wrench in his hand, glanced at the green beads, and motioned for her to continue.
"I have a little money left except for my identity as a Mei Yan clan. Since you don't like either, you can mention it casually, and I will agree. Lu Zhu shrugged her shoulders, and simply became a live horse doctor, she was not afraid of his conditions.
"You know it. I almost forgot that you still owe me a favor now, and let me think about it. As he spoke, he held his forehead in a thoughtful manner, and closed his eyes as if he was seriously thinking.
Lu Zhu glanced at him disdainfully, knowing that he had already thought of the conditions, but he was just trying to capture the old people. She ignored it, playing with her fingers, and waited quietly for the verdict to be announced.
"With the remuneration just now, you still have to cooperate with me to act in a play for a period of one month."
"What play?"
"Wei Qitong, help me get rid of her."
Lu Zhu raised her eyebrows, but she didn't want him to make such a request, although she said that she was a little smaller, but with her blue heart, she shouldn't annoy him.
"No problem, isn't it just to be a junior."
"What is a junior?"
"It's for me to intervene in your relationship so that it can break down. Is that all there is to it? β
As a modern woman, she has never watched less bloody TV series such as girlfriends robbing her husband and green tea, and now she still cooperates with the male protagonist, which must be easy.
"But to be honest, your fiancΓ©e is really cautious, and she is a good match for you."
Lu Zhu didn't forget to continue to mend the knife, Yao Jinmo pulled the corners of his mouth, the look in his eyes was complicated, he coughed lightly, and said after a while: "Of course it's more than that." Remember the favor you owe me? I want you to be fair or unfair, willing or not, as long as I propose, you must fulfill the covenant whenever and wherever you want. β
"Okay! Deal! It's not that Luzhu is really willing, it's just that he is the only person she can rely on now, and she doesn't think that this favor will drag her down, on the contrary, with this favor, at least until she finds her mother, she is absolutely safe, because he never makes a loss-making deal.
"So refreshing?" Yao Jinmo knew what she was thinking, and she didn't break it, so she asked knowingly.
"Less nonsense, a gentleman is quick to say."
Midori walked to the side of the bed and slammed her fist into him.
Finding the mother is just around the corner!
"Come with me to the pool." Luzhu wanted to pull him up who was lazily half-lying at the head of the bed, but he couldn't move it anyway.
"I'm very tired today, I have long wanted to rest, and I am lazy to move again." Yao Jinmo said and wanted to lie down.
Lu Zhu hurriedly pressed his shoulder, pulled his mouth and said with a smile: "It's still early, don't lie down all the time when you're young, go out and chat with me, these days in your house, there is no speculation, it's very boring." β
Yao Jinmo raised his eyebrows and replied with side details: "It turns out that in Zhu'er's heart, I am very speculative." β
Lu Zhu glanced at him with disdain, and then changed to a respectful and obedient appearance, and after a lot of hard work, he finally pulled the man on the bed to the pond at the price of five thousand taels.
Under the moonlight, the pond seems to be covered with a layer of mercury, and occasionally the autumn breeze blows, bringing ripples.
The two of them sat on the edge of the pool, like golden boys and girls falling from the sky, adding a bit of throbbing and beautiful color to the pond that had already faded from the heavy summer makeup.
