Chapter 342 To Marry
Although Gao Yuan doesn't talk on weekdays and is just a piece of wood, even if he is a piece of wood, he is an upright piece of wood.
But now Gao Yuan has his head down, his back hunched, and his right hand on his knee, not knowing what he is thinking.
Zhou Chang blinked and confirmed again. Gao ** used to have a expressionless face and was taciturn. Although he was still taciturn now, there was a look of joy on his eyebrows and mouth.
Gao Yuan also felt Zhou Chang's gaze and looked up.
"Don't ask me about the pig's head," Zhou Chang said, "Do you have any good news?"
"No..." Gao Yuan still said one word and looked away, but the smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows did not diminish.
Zhou Chang instinctively knew something was wrong: "Then why are you laughing?"
"I wasn't laughing." Gao Yuan denied it subjectively, but it was clear that the corners of his mouth were smiling unconsciously.
"Are you...ah...did Liu E thank you for something?" Zhou Chang had a sharp intuition.
"No..." A hint of panic appeared in Gao Yuan's eyes.
Zhou Chang looked more and more suspicious, and he became furious: "Where did you sleep last night?"
"No..." Gao Yuan finally tightened his lips, but he couldn't answer.
"No? Didn't sleep, or didn't?" Zhou Chang asked, then remembered that he had forgotten to ask Yaoyuefang for a detailed spending list.
She should look at where she spent all her money. Even if the three of them booked three rooms, it shouldn't cost 10,000 taels.
It’s fine to return everything else, but the money I spent on visiting Yaoyuefang must be returned to Yuan Qi no matter what.
If you think about it this way, in just one night, not only did you become penniless, but you also owed a debt of five thousand taels of silver.
Gao Yuan was listless, with fatigue in his eyes.
"You must be in trouble." Zhou Chang was in a bad mood himself, but he could tell that Gao Yuan was even more upset. "Did Peng Liang and his gang bother you again last night?"
Zhou Chang really couldn't think of any other possibilities.
Gao Yuan was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I want to marry Miss Liu E."
"what……?"
What does it mean to be silent but make a splash?
Zhou Chang was speechless.
Gao Yuan's eyes were determined, and a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth unconsciously. He repeated: "I want to marry Miss Liu'e."
"Did you, did you guys last night..." Zhou Chang didn't know if it was what she thought, so he changed the question, "Do you like Miss Liu'e? Do you want to redeem her?"
Gao Yuan nodded.
"What do you like about her? Because she's beautiful?" Zhou Chang held up the "pig head" and stretched his neck.
Gao Yuan nodded and shook his head.
"Then what do you like about her?" Zhou Chang didn't understand.
Gao Yuan only had two words to describe it: "He is a good person."
"Uh..." Zhou Chang was speechless again.
Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, aren’t these two words the things you fear the most?
"There are many good people." Zhou Chang could understand Granny Liu's feelings when she first entered the Grand View Garden, and he said in a "senior's tone," Gao Yuan, listen to me, you are old enough to get married, why don't you find someone more suitable? I will think about this for you and will definitely find you a suitable one."
In the past, Gao Yuan hardly dared to speak when he saw a woman, but now when he sees a good-looking one, he rushes towards her, thinking that this is a match made in heaven.
But no matter what her background was, Liu E didn't seem to be the same type as Gao Yuan.
In Zhou Chang's opinion, what Gao Yuan needs is a simple and ordinary woman who can live a homely life. That's the best.
"No, it's her." Gao Yuan either keeps silent or speaks without any nonsense.
The word "just" was used well. Zhou Chang heard the clue: "Did something happen last night?"
Gao Yuan avoided Zhou Chang's gaze and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
If Zhou Chang hadn't been so stupid, he would have wanted to kick him twice, but he could only sit beside him and said anxiously: "What happened? Just tell me. Don't be so hesitant. You're not a real man."
Gao Yuan rubbed his thigh back and forth with his right hand, his face turned red, as if an invisible hand was strangling his throat.
"Hurry up and tell me." Zhou Chang pressed Gao Yuan's right hand, not allowing him to hesitate any longer.
Gao Yuan's veins bulged, and he finally reached his limit: "I, I was drunk last night, and she saved me with her body. I want to marry her."
"Saving others with your own body?" Zhou Chang grasped the key point, "Are you doing this voluntarily?"
Once Gao Yuan started talking, the rest was easy: "The wine I drank was spiked with aphrodisiac, and Miss Liu'e..."
"Who gave him the aphrodisiac? Was it that Yanyan or someone else?" Zhou Chang was shocked that Gao Yuan could be drugged so easily.
Gao Yuan shook his head: "The prince said he wanted to find another room, but it was not used. I met Miss Liu when I went out last night. She insisted on hosting a banquet in her room to express her gratitude. I couldn't refuse, so I went."
Zhou Chang's "pig head" became increasingly heavy, and one could guess what would happen next without him saying it.
Gao Yuan answered without being asked: "Miss Liu and I were drinking together, but after a while, we both felt something was wrong. I wanted to go and settle accounts with those people, but Miss Liu said...she was willing."
When Gao Yuan finished speaking, his voice lowered, but there was a smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Zhou Chang had never seen anything so lofty.
Gao Yuan seemed to still be immersed in the gentle and affectionate memories.
After a long while, Zhou Chang still wanted to find out who did it: "Do you know who did it?"
Gao Yuan suddenly jumped out of his memories, his gentleness turned into anger: "Who else could it be? It must be Peng Liang's gang. They are one of the famous 'gentlemen' gangs' in Jindu City. Their characteristic is that you can't provoke them, otherwise they will take revenge."
"Peng Liang? Didn't he leave last night?" Zhou Chang had already forgotten about this person.
Gao Yuan clenched his fist and said, "Your Highness, you may not know that Peng Liang did not really leave at that time. Instead, he went to the underground casino with his group of friends."
"Even so, how can you be sure that he was the one who drugged her?" Zhou Chang thought it was too coincidental.
Gao Yuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "That guy was supposed to drug Miss Liu, and I just happened to be there. When Miss Liu and I fell into the trap, Peng Liang led his men in."
"Ah..." Zhou Chang exclaimed, what did she miss last night.
Gao Yuan ignored him and continued, "Thanks to Miss Liu's foresight, she took me to hide in the next room through the secret door. I heard Peng Liang and his men break in with my own ears, but they didn't find us in the end. Miss Liu and I hid for a while, but the effects of the drug became stronger and stronger, and we couldn't bear it, so in the end, we just..."
Zhou Chang already understood what was said next, needless to say.
The hero saves the beauty, and the beauty repays the hero with her own life.
This is an old story.
"You didn't pay, did you?" Zhou Chang had to be a little mean, fearing that Gao Yuan would fall into a trap.
Liu E is not in a position to make decisions on her own, and this involves Yaoyuefang, which has already changed owners, so the matter may not be easy to resolve.
Last night, the son of Minister of War Peng Pai offered 20,000 taels to buy the right of virginity, but Yaoyuefang refused. How should this account be settled?
"Your Highness, this is not about money." Gao Yuan was determined.
"In fact, giving yourself to me is something that both of us want. As long as it's voluntary, you don't have to take responsibility." Zhou Chang planned to persuade her patiently.
It was obvious that Gao Yuan was experiencing this for the first time, so it would be a good idea for him to take responsibility right away. However, Liu E and Yao Yue Fang might not think so.
"No, it's her." Gao Yuan said with certainty.
