They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 388 What he said wasn't quite right
Liang Minglang crossed his arms over his chest, keeping a discreet distance as he watched them.

Ji Yingxuan appears gentle and refined, but Liang Minglang would have to be blind to believe he's a soft-hearted and kind person.

He would protect his own wife; he couldn't bear to leave her alone with Ji Yingxuan, who was clearly experiencing severe emotional turmoil.

What if Ji Yingxuan loses control and takes action out of grief and anger?

His wife is definitely going to suffer.

Fortunately, the situation was much better than he had expected.

He listened intently to what they were saying and could vaguely make out some of it. When he saw the two of them laughing, Liang Minglang couldn't stay still any longer.

Time to end.

"Cough cough!"

Liang Minglang coughed heavily and walked towards the two of them.

Their eyes met, sparks flew, and neither gave an inch.

Neither of them liked the other.

Ji Yingxuan's face fell instantly.

Liang Minglang smiled at him, but why was he standing next to Zhichun and putting his hand on her shoulder when he spoke?

"Young Master Ji, now it's our turn to talk."

"Humph"

Ji Yingxuan reluctantly admitted it.

Xu Zhichun nodded: "You two have a good chat."

The two watched her go inside, then looked away, still disliking each other.

Liang Minglang got straight to the point: "I won't beat around the bush. Now let's talk about avenging the Xu family."

Ji Yingxuan glared at him, somewhat annoyed.

Liang Minglang: "Don't misunderstand, I only have my wife in my heart. Xu and I were just pretending to be husband and wife. Nothing ever happened between us. Xu saved me, and I promised to avenge her. She had nowhere to go for the time being, and it wouldn't look good for a man and a woman to be together, so we simply pretended to be husband and wife in public."

Ji Yingxuan's expression softened somewhat, and he said proudly and smugly, "How could I possibly misunderstand? Zhichun only has me in her heart, of course she could never really marry you!"

Liang Minglang felt a little awkward hearing him call "Zhichun" in such an intimate tone. "Let's get down to business."

Ji Yingxuan glanced at him: "Revenge? There's no need. I've already avenged her."

"what?"

Liang Minglang was genuinely surprised this time.

Ji Yingxuan sneered, "How could I possibly let someone who bullies Zhichun get away with it? You should be grateful that you didn't hurt Zhichun."

Otherwise, he would never let him go.

He didn't entirely believe him, of course, but with so many people in the village, it was impossible for them all to be lying. Besides, he trusted Xu Zhichun as he was now.

Even if Zhichun's soul leaves, she would never allow someone with evil intentions to possess her body.

Liang Minglang was completely confused. "Could you explain in detail?"

Ji Yingxuan gave him a cold look, a peculiar competitive spirit making him feel like he was the victor. "Didn't Zhichun tell you in detail? She came from a scholarly family, but after her parents died, her heartless aunt and uncle sold her to the Jin Hua Lou in Lingyang County. That's where I met her. Suddenly, I received a letter from home that my mother was seriously ill, and I was extremely anxious, so I had to go back first. But before I left, I clearly left a thousand taels of silver, instructing Wu Mama at Jin Hua Lou to take good care of Zhichun, and that I would definitely come back to take her away. I didn't expect that when I returned to Lingyang County three months later, Zhichun was already gone."

"That damned madam dared to lie to me! She took my money but didn't take good care of her. She kept saying it wasn't her fault, that Zhichun left the Golden Flower Brothel because she didn't want to stay there anymore. How could I believe her? If she had taken good care of Zhichun, Zhichun wouldn't have left; she would have waited for me. Since she left, it means that the madam must have bullied her."

"I was furious, so I ordered the Golden Flower Brothel to be demolished. I also tricked that damned madam and threw her into jail. She'll never get out of there. As for Zhichun's uncle and aunt, I gave them a good beating. They're now two penniless, drowning dogs who will have to beg for the rest of their lives."

"Unfortunately, what's the use of my revenge? I can't find Zhichun anywhere." "I've been looking for her for so long, but I still haven't found her."

Now that she's been found, she's no longer herself.

Liang Minglang waited for a while, but Ji Yingxuan didn't continue. So he said, "That's all?"

Ji Yingxuan looked at him, somewhat puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"I mean, when you say you avenged her, is this what you did?"

"if not?"

Liang Minglang: "."

"Too."

"What do you mean? Liang Minglang, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Ji Yingxuan's keen insight surprised Liang Minglang. He was still a little confused, but his intuition told him that it was best not to say anything when his mind was in turmoil.

"No, I didn't expect that you had already done all these things for her. If she knew, she would be very happy."

"Of course she'll find out; I'll tell her someday."

"."

Liang Minglang had no choice but to end the conversation hastily, and he had to appear calm and composed, otherwise Ji Yingxuan would definitely become suspicious.

After getting rid of Ji Yingxuan, Liang Minglang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly parted ways with him.

He knew about Lingyang County, Jinhua Tower, and the unscrupulous uncle and aunt that Ji Yingxuan mentioned, but the enemies that Xu wanted to take revenge on were not them.

Or rather, compared to the real enemies mentioned by Mr. Xu, they don't even rank.

Ke Jiyingxuan seemed to know nothing about it.

Liang Minglang hesitated for a while about whether to tell Ji Yingxuan, but ultimately decided not to.

Perhaps this was Xu's way of protecting Ji Yingxuan? She didn't want Ji Yingxuan to be in danger, so she didn't tell him anything.

I owe her my life, so I should do something for her.

Let's leave it at that for now.

Liang Minglang was a little disappointed. He had thought he could get more information from Ji Yingxuan, but it turned out that the guy knew nothing.

In the room, Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang faced each other, each with their own complicated feelings, and neither knew what to say.

Liang Minglang gently pulled the person into his arms.

Xu Zhichun leaned softly against his chest, her chaotic thoughts gradually finding a place of stability. "He guessed it. I told him everything."

"Yes, I heard a little bit, but it's okay now."

“I didn’t say that Xu was killed by my second aunt, because I was afraid it would cause him more pain.”

She could have easily survived, but she was unlucky enough to meet the wrong person and was cruelly murdered. Ji Yingxuan would probably be driven mad with anger and heartache.

Since he's already gone, why stab him in the heart again?
Let him go to her with only hope.

Liang Minglang couldn't help but think of what Ji Yingxuan had said about how he had avenged the Xu family. He thought to himself that it was better that he hadn't said it, otherwise his second aunt's family would have suffered a terrible fate.

He can take revenge.

If that kid were to make a move, he wouldn't care about tarnishing Liangjia Village's reputation, but he would. So even if he wanted revenge, he would wait for the right opportunity.
