After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

It was supposed to be half a year, but by the third month, Lu Ruo was no longer in as much pain when getting dressed, and the strange fragrance on her body had also faded considerably.

Jiang Xiao originally planned to wait until Lu Ruo recovered before setting off, but unexpectedly Lin Siheng received a letter from a friend, requiring him to go to Yunzhou.

Fortunately, Lu Ruo recovered very well and no longer needs acupuncture; she only needs to continue taking medication.

Jiang Xiao left behind the prescription and gave many instructions before going to Yunzhou with her husband.

After Lin Siheng and Jiang Xiaoxiao left, Lan Shu changed from being secretive to being open and aboveboard.

Because he rented the house next door, he would visit his future son-in-law every time his son went out to buy medicine, in order to strengthen his relationship with him.

Lu Ruo was quite reserved at first, after all, he hadn't had much experience interacting properly with respectable people, and he was afraid that his identity as a bandit would scare them away.

After all, when Lan Shu first came to visit, she not only hit it off with him immediately, but also brought a basket of snacks, all of which were his favorite flavors.

Moreover, Lan Shu is a gentle man, and he seems to be a very kind husband.

After Lin Beizhen went out that day, Lan Shu came over to visit as usual.

When Lu Ruo saw him arrive, she quickly brewed a pot of tea and set out some melon seeds and peanuts.

The two boys sat chatting under the flowering trees in the yard.

Lan Shu sighed deeply.

Seeing that he seemed troubled, Lu Ruo asked, "Brother Lan, what's wrong?"

Lan Shu hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "It's all because of my stupid son."

Lan Shu had previously told Lu Ruo that he had a son who was in his mid-twenties and still unmarried, which made him anxious every day.

Lu Ruo said, "Perhaps his time has not yet come. Brother Lan, you don't need to worry too much. Just let nature take its course."

Lan Shu said, "That's true, but as his father, I'm really worried that he'll grow old alone... that would be too pitiful."

Lu Ruo asked, "Since that's the case, why not arrange a marriage for him? It's all about parental consent and matchmaker's words. I'm sure your son will be satisfied with the person you've chosen, Brother Lan."

"Sigh." Lan Shu sighed several times in a row, saying, "This boy is still reluctant to get married. All the eligible young men around here are married. Where am I supposed to find him a suitable young man..."

Lu Ruo didn't know what to say, so she took a sip of tea.

Lan Shu glanced at him furtively and said, "It would be great if a well-behaved and sensible young man appeared right now."

"My son isn't picky about looks. As long as the two of them get along, family background doesn't matter at all."

Lu Ruo followed his words and said, "Yes, it would be nice to have a sensible and well-behaved boy."

Lan Shu suddenly took his hand in hers. "Ruo Ruo, aren't you not married yet? Why don't you marry my son?"

Lu Ruo was initially puzzled, then so shocked that she couldn't speak coherently.

"Me? Me?" Lu Ruo quickly said, "I can't, I can't..."

Lan Shudao said, "My son is eight feet tall, brave and resourceful, handsome and dashing, a true gentleman..."

Lan Shu showered her son with compliments, concluding, "He's a perfect match for you."

Startled, Lu Ruo quickly pulled her hand away. "Brother Lan, I'm sorry, I... I have someone I like."

Lan Shu asked, "Who is it? It can't be that coffin-faced guy, can it? What's so great about him? He's not even half as handsome as my son."

Lu Ruo said, "He's just not very talkative, he's a very nice person."

It's not some coffin face at all!

Lan Shu looked regretful. "It seems my son isn't lucky enough to marry such a good young man as Ruoruo."

I never expected that there would actually be someone who likes a quiet, reserved guy like Xiao Bei.

I thought my child was just having a crush on me, but now it seems like good things are on the horizon.

Lan Shu was overjoyed; the addition of a new member to the family was a joyous occasion.

I'll write to Prince Cheng when I get back, asking for leave this year and to return to work after my son's wedding.

Lu Ruo lowered her head and whispered, "I'm actually not good at all."

Lan Shu rubbed his head and said, "Ruo Ruo, don't underestimate yourself."

Lu Ruo whispered, "Actually, I..."

He said he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Whether it's their background, past, or anything else.

Lan Shu could tell what he was thinking just by looking at him. "Ruo Ruo, not everyone is born clean... This is not what we want. It's not our fault. There's no need to feel inferior."

"I……"

Lan Shu cleverly changed the subject, "I see that your husband is not young anymore. Does he have a family? Ruoruo, you are still young, don't be deceived by bad people."

Lu Ruo said, "He really is a good person."

As for whether he has a family… Lu Ruo lowered her eyes, her expression turning very sad, “He… he has a fiancé, even becoming his mistress is a pipe dream for me…”

Upon hearing this, Lan Shu felt even more guilty.

Unexpectedly, his casual lie not only harmed his son but also his future husband.

But who is Lan Shu? He's the most arrogant guy in the book.

Therefore, his apology was awkward and strange.

"In that case, you might as well marry my son and become his legitimate husband."

Lu Ruo didn't know why this kind neighbor had taken a liking to him.

To avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings, Lu Ruo decided to reveal her identity to dissuade Lan Shu from trying to arrange a marriage for her.

"Brother Lan, actually I am a bandit from the Blackwater Kiln."

Lan Shu blinked, hesitating for a moment, unsure whether she should react with alarm like an ordinary person, or say, "It's okay, I don't mind your background. We're good friends, aren't we?"

It doesn't seem right no matter how I put it.

When Lan Shu remained silent, Lu Ruo's heart sank to the bottom.

For the first time, he realized how rash his decision to become an outlaw had been.

You finally make a friend, and it might just fall apart like this.

Lu Ruo felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart.

Lan Shu asked, "So what are your plans after that?"

Lu Ruo looked up blankly. "What?"

"Should we continue being bandits, or leave with that young man?" Lan Shu asked.

"Hmm..." Lu Ruo thought about it seriously for a moment, "I don't know."

Lan Shu asked, "Have you ever thought about changing your profession and no longer being a bandit?"

Lu Ruo said, "But I don't know what I should do..."

Lan Shu thought to herself, "They really are two people who hit it off; they're both equally confused about the future."

"A person's life is very, very long, long enough for you to think about it slowly," the book of the Rand said.

"Um!"

Lan Shu had very low expectations for her son, and the Lin family is now doing very well and has a substantial fortune.

There is enough wealth to support the younger generation to live a life of idleness and complacency.

All he wanted was for his son to live a safe and happy life; achievements, power, status... none of these were within his consideration.

Lu Ruo never expected that there would be such a good stepfather in the world, and for a moment she was a little envious of the son that Lan Shu was talking about.
