Chapter 964: Chapter 960: Lush Greenery

After they left, Gu Xuanyu took a deep breath and continued to look at Annie: "Annie, do you believe me now? This is truly your father’s wish, I meant no harm."

Gu Xuanyu’s face was full of sincerity.

At this moment, Annie indeed believed his words, but she still had no fondness for Gu Xuanyu.

"Since that’s the case, I won’t argue with you anymore. Remember what I said, no matter what agreements my father has with your Gu Family, I will have nothing to do with you, let alone become your fiancée. You better give up on that idea!" Dai Annie said resolutely.

"Annie..." Gu Xuanyu’s face turned very unpleasant when he heard this and he wanted to say something.

But Annie gave him no chance, standing up directly from the chair, she said to Chen Yang and Wang Qingyue: "Chen Yang, Sister Qingyue, please take me away."

Chen Yang looked at Dai Annie, then at Gu Xuanyu.

At first, Chen Yang was fuming and meant to teach him a lesson no matter what.

But now his anger had already subsided.

Because Gu Xuanyu didn’t actually do anything to Dai Annie, and having her drugged was under the instruction of Dai Jinsong, so overall, he didn’t do anything too outrageous.

Given that, he didn’t feel the need to lay a hand on him.

He only cast a warning glare at him!

"Okay, let’s go."

Chen Yang grabbed Dai Annie’s hand and marched out toward the door.

Seeing Chen Yang holding Dai Annie’s hand, Gu Xuanyu felt a surge of jealousy; in his eyes, Dai Annie was his fiancée, yet now she was holding hands with someone else.

Suddenly, he felt green with envy.

However, he dared not say anything in this situation.

If he said anything now, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?

He could only swallow back his inner fury, gritting his teeth!

Yet Chen Yang holding Dai Annie’s hand stirred not only Gu Xuanyu but also Wang Qingyue!

Seeing Chen Yang holding hands, her heart trembled naturally with inexplicable feelings.

But she didn’t show it directly, and just silently followed Chen Yang out of the private room.

After leaving the private room, Chen Yang took the two women out of the restaurant and got in the car.

Chen Yang sat in the driver’s seat, while Dai Annie and Wang Qingyue held hands in the back seat.

"Sister Qingyue, I knew you would realize I was in danger. Thank you so much today. If you hadn’t reacted quickly, I would have been forced into marriage." In the car, Annie expressed her gratitude to Wang Qingyue as she held her hand.

Wang Qingyue smiled slightly: "Annie, there’s no need to be so polite between us sisters. As long as you’re safe, that’s all that matters."

Hearing this, Dai Annie was deeply moved.

"Yes, I know, Sister Qingyue!" Dai Annie nodded emotionally, her gaze filled with gratitude toward Wang Qingyue.

"By the way, Chen Yang, why did you suddenly come too? I thought you were at Liuhua Village and would take some time to get here, so I contacted Sister Qingyue." After thanking Wang Qingyue, Dai Annie looked at Chen Yang in the driver’s seat in surprise.

Chen Yang smiled lightly and explained: "Not long after you set off, I felt you were going to get into trouble, so I came early. I didn’t expect you to really get into trouble, so I arrived just in time."

"Wow, your intuition is really spot on. Thankfully, you sensed it, or I would have been in big trouble." Dai Annie still felt scared when she thought about it, but fortunately, things were fine now.

"Hehe, as long as you’re fine. Let’s move along, this is not the place for talk." Chen Yang chuckled and then started the car, leaving the vicinity of the Jiang’an Restaurant.

After driving for a while, Chen Yang turned to ask Wang Qingyue if she wanted to go back or go along to Liuhua Village.

Wang Qingyue pondered for a moment and decided to go along to Liuhua Village.

"I’ll go with you to Liuhua Village. I want to chat with Annie about this engagement matter." Wang Qingyue said.

"Alright."

Chen Yang nodded and then drove the car, taking the two women back to Liuhua Village.

On the way back, the two women talked a lot, and also about the situation with Gu Xuanyu.

Although Chen Yang didn’t ask questions and focused on driving, he gathered the gist of it from their conversation.

It turned out the relationship between Dai Annie and Gu Xuanyu wasn’t a sudden development.

Instead, Dai Jinsong and Gu Xuanyu’s father had arranged a childhood betrothal for her and Gu Xuanyu when she was still young.

That’s why Gu Xuanyu assumed that Dai Annie was his fiancée.

"I really have nothing to say, in this day and age, having childhood betrothals like this is so distasteful." Dai Annie vented after finishing her story.

Chen Yang in the driver’s seat smiled slightly without saying a word.

But Wang Qingyue seemed pensive and didn’t speak.

"Sister Qingyue, don’t you think this is distasteful? In this day and age, wouldn’t love be in pursuit of freedom? Yet it’s so old-fashioned, truly speechless." Not getting a response, Dai Annie then asked Wang Qingyue how she felt about it.

Wang Qingyue smiled a bit bitterly.

"It certainly is old-fashioned, but I think Uncle Dai must have his concerns; otherwise, why would he do this to you? So, you shouldn’t blame Uncle Dai too much," Wang Qingyue advised.

Dai Annie was quite resentful toward her father initially.

But hearing Wang Qingyue’s words, she started to understand her father’s intentions.

"Yes, I understand, Sister Qingyue. I’m just momentarily angry; of course, I wouldn’t hold a grudge against my dad like that." Dai Annie said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, it’s good you think that way. I was worried you might take it hard and have a serious misunderstanding with Uncle Dai." Wang Qingyue sighed in relief upon hearing there was no grudge.

The two women chatted all the way, and before they knew it, the car arrived back at Liuhua Village.

By the time they returned, it was already around three or four in the afternoon, the quietest time in the village.

Most villagers were out working, leaving the roads almost empty.

Chen Yang parked the car at the door and got out with the two women, entering the clinic.

"Qingyue, stay for dinner? What would you like to eat? I’ll prepare it for you tonight." As soon as they got inside, Chen Yang started thinking about dinner.

"I’m good with anything, but more meat would be great." Wang Qingyue replied.

"Haha, alright, then I’ll take Wangcai for a walk later, and make sure to get more meat for you." Chen Yang promised with a laugh.

It seemed that the vegetarian experience had left Wang Qingyue with a shadow, as she specifically requested more meat every time she was asked what she wanted to eat.

"Yes, Chen Yang, you go ahead. I still have a lot to talk about with Sister Qingyue, we’ll head to the room first, and don’t bother us before dinner!" Dai Annie playfully nodded, then directly pulled Wang Qingyue toward the room.

"Alright, got it."

Chen Yang shook his head helplessly, watched them enter the room, and then went to the backyard alone, called Wangcai, and went out.

The afternoon was very pleasant, perfect for a stroll.

Because the sun wasn’t strong, and the temperature was just right.

"Wangcai, you’d better perform well today, catch more rabbits or wild chickens. If you catch too few, there’ll be no body-strengthening elixir for you tomorrow." Chen Yang walked while petting Wangcai’s head, warning it of the consequences of not catching rabbits.

Wangcai was startled, barking incessantly.

Seeing its dramatic reaction, Chen Yang’s face turned dark.

"Wangcai, I’ve trained you for so long, can’t you handle catching a couple of rabbits or pheasants?" Chen Yang said irritably.
