Chapter 1029: What a Miserable Man

Rumble!

In the evening, a sudden rainstorm began.

This rain continued until late at night.

Bang, bang, bang!

The courtyard door was knocked.

If it weren't for Chen Guanlou's sharp ears and clear eyes, he might not have heard the knocking in the rainstorm.

He got up, took an umbrella, walked to the courtyard, and opened the courtyard door.

As soon as the door opened, a figure pounced on him.

He almost took action to blast the person away.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, he recognized the person in front of him; it was Yue Xin.

"Miss Yue, what is this... you are soaked through, hurry and follow me into the house. How did you come, you don't cherish your body at all. You sit down first, I'll go boil water for you to wash up..."

"Brother Chen, don't go." Yue Xin hugged him tightly, refusing to let go. "Brother Chen, hold me tight!"

Chen Guanlou frowned slightly and raised his hand to gently stroke the other party's forehead. "No fever!"

"Brother Chen, don't you like me? Am I very ugly?"

"No, it's not that, you..."

"Don't say anything, hold me tight, okay?" Yue Xin clung to his body like an octopus.

Since a girl had taken the initiative to this extent, if he, as a man, didn't do something and take the initiative, would he still be a man?

And so, Chen Guanlou decisively picked up the other party and headed for the bed.

The two were entangled in a deathly embrace.

Yue Xin was enthusiastically unreal, as if tomorrow were the end of the world.

When dawn came, she got up, washed her hands, and made soup, like a virtuous wife.

Eating the hot breakfast, Chen Guanlou was a bit obsessed for a moment; it seemed that if he were to marry, having such a beautiful wife would be quite good.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

For the next two days, the two got along like husband and wife.

Whenever they had time, they would dive into bed.

Whenever Chen Guanlou wanted to say something and chat about future plans, Yue Xin would block his mouth. "Kiss me!"

With beauty before him, how could he care about the future? The present was the most important!

The days of the "newlywed" little couple passed in the blink of an eye for two more days.

Chen Guanlou had to go to the Heavenly Prison; he couldn't continue to be so "promiscuous."

Yue Xin wore a tender green dress, leaning against the door frame, looking at him like a little wife, her eyes full of love.

For a moment, Chen Guanlou was moved and wanted to continue lingering.

He tried hard to suppress it before he could push down the restless urge in his heart.

He walked up, gently stroked the other party's cheek, and pressed against the other party's forehead. "I will return as soon as possible. Wait for me to come back and make you something delicious."

"En!" Yue Xin agreed with a smile.

"Wait for me!"

At that time, he must chat about the future of the two, and couldn't continue to be so "absurd."

Absurdity had to be absurd.

But it couldn't be an absurd affair without a name.

He wanted to give the other party a status!

He rushed to the Heavenly Prison, drove away all the people who were making a scene and watching the excitement, had no time to argue with Medical Official Mu, handled official business at the fastest speed, and went to the Ministry of Justice again.

After leaving the Ministry of Justice, he went straight home.

On the way, he bought some meat and vegetables, preparing to show off his cooking skills today, letting the other party see his culinary skills—everyone who had eaten it said it was good!

He was happy, humming a little tune, and pushed open the courtyard door.

"I'm back!"

The house was quiet.

"I'm back!"

He shouted again, but there was still no movement.

He realized the problem, dropped the meat and vegetables, searched every room, and the person was gone. Yue Xin was gone, she had left. And she had taken the dragon and phoenix jade pendant that the Prince Chujiang had used to pay off the debt!

He threw everything down and went straight to Doufu Lane.

The place was empty!

According to the neighbors around the two-courtyard house by the jujube tree, they were moving last night, and this morning it was all moved out.

The person was gone, everyone was gone!

Chen Guanlou walked into the empty two-courtyard house; everything was moved out, she just left like this? Without even leaving a word?

Was he so unworthy of her leaving a word of farewell?

If she really wanted to leave, he would definitely not stop her!

But why couldn't she leave a word of farewell?

What did the lingering of the previous few days count for?

He sat under the eaves of the house, his heart filled with melancholy.

A fate together, why leave so decisively! At least say goodbye!

Those moving moments couldn't be fake; she had feelings for him. Why leave without a sound, why bother?

A sigh!

Depressed, he didn't even want to go home. Once home, it was hard not to think of the moving moments.

He didn't want to do anything, and even the brothel lost its interest.

He simply returned to the Heavenly Prison, with an appearance of "don't provoke me, if you provoke me I'll kill you."

People in the Heavenly Prison all knew how to read faces.

Clearly, he had been smiling and rushing home to accompany his wife, and only a few hours later, he looked like his house had been robbed.

There's a problem!

A big problem!

But no one had the guts to ask.

A group of people had to instigate Medical Official Mu.

Medical Official Mu glared. "You are afraid of death, do you think I am not afraid of death?"

"No matter how angry the Master is, he won't get angry at you. Old Mu, go ask, we are all concerned about the Master's safety."

"Right, right, right, we are all concerned about the Master. In case the Master gets into a dead end and can't think straight for a moment, what should we do."

Medical Official Mu also felt that he should show appropriate concern, and couldn't let him get into a dead end.

He walked quietly into the office, silently boiling water and making tea.

When the tea was ready, he placed a cup by Chen Guanlou's hand. "Master, you often say that people are iron and rice is steel, and you'll be hungry if you don't eat a meal. It looks like the Master hasn't eaten yet, how about I have the small kitchen prepare a table of dishes for drinking. Let's eat and drink together."

"Alas!"

Chen Guanlou sighed.

He beckoned.

Medical Official Mu hesitated for a moment and leaned over. "Master is calling me?"

"Old Mu, tell the truth, how do I look, what are my conditions, am I a good match for a girl!"

"That's for sure! Master has money, power, status, and position, and looks like a jade tree in the wind; I don't know how many young ladies and little wives want to crawl into your bed. You must be a good match! A good match you can't find even with a lantern!"

After listening, Chen Guanlou nodded repeatedly, very much agreeing with Medical Official Mu's analysis.

"Then you tell me, a flower-like girl, took the initiative to sleep with me. Clearly, it was like honey and oil, no different from a newlywed couple. Why did she suddenly leave without saying goodbye, leaving so cleanly? Could it be that she disliked me?"

"Ah?" Medical Official Mu was shocked. "You slept with Miss Yue, and she took the initiative?"

This is big news!

The first time he saw them, he knew the two would have something going on sooner or later.

Never expected it to be so fast.

Chen Guanlou snorted coldly. "Is that the point? The point is why did she leave without saying goodbye?"

"Master means, Miss Yue is gone, can't be found? She left?"

"Left! Moved house until it was empty, without even leaving a word."

"Did she take anything?"

"Are you trying to ask if she swept away my money? No! She didn't touch anything. The silver notes in the drawer, the gold and silver jewelry, she didn't even bother to look at them. When she left, she only took the jade pendant that the Prince Chujiang used to pay off the debt." ===== CHAPTER 1030 =====
