Chapter 1454: Chapter 1454: Shameless

"Miss Qiaoqiao!"

Accompanied by a clear and pretty voice, Su Yunjin opened the door to the room and walked out. As soon as Su Yunjin appeared, everyone’s gaze fell upon her simultaneously.

Seeing Su Yunjin, Qiaoqiao immediately felt a pang of guilt in her heart. After all, Su Yunjin was Gu Yan’s wife, and her brazen attempt to snatch another woman’s man was somewhat indefensible.

Qiaoqiao stood there, feeling guilty, not daring to speak.

As Su Yunjin emerged, Gu Yan also walked over to his wife’s side, "Yunjin, why did you come out? It’s snowing heavily outside, and you are pregnant; you should go back inside."

While saying this, Gu Yan adjusted the cloak on his wife. His voice was gentle, his eyes doting—where was the sign of the harsh and severe tone from just earlier?

Qiaoqiao had never seen such a tender side of Gu Yan before, and seeing him treat Su Yunjin with such gentleness, jealousy fiercely surged in her heart.

She was so angry she nearly gnashed her teeth to bits.

Su Yunjin gave Gu Yan a reproachful look.

"If I hadn’t come out, some other woman would have nearly stolen you away." Su Yunjin’s eyes moved playfully, charming and coquettish; her slightly pouting demeanor and expression made her seem even more endearing.

If it were not for the presence of so many people outside, Gu Yan would surely have been unable to resist pulling his wife into his arms to dote on her.

With everyone from the village present, of course, Gu Yan would not act out of turn in front of so many. Su Yunjin looked at Qiaoqiao again and took a step towards her.

Suddenly, a large hand gripped her wrist, "Yunjin, I’ll handle this matter. You don’t need to worry about it." Gu Yan could handle Qiaoqiao’s matter by himself.

He wouldn’t have his wife fret over such a trivial thing.

Su Yunjin’s face was full of mockery.

"My dear husband, if someone dares to snatch you right in front of me, and I say nothing, wouldn’t everyone think that Su Yunjin’s man is easy to steal?"

Upon hearing his wife’s words, Gu Yan first showed a hint of surprise, then his large hand gently released her wrist. His wife had just declared he was her man.

Gu Yan enjoyed seeing his wife act so possessively.

Since his wife wanted to deal with this matter, he would let her handle it. Of course, Gu Yan would not completely step back, he would still protect her, ensuring she would not be harmed by anyone. Since Su Yunjin had appeared, Qiaoqiao hadn’t spoken another word.

Now, with Su Yunjin in front of her, and despite only being looked at, Qiaoqiao felt an invisible pressure bearing down on her, making her unable to meet Yunjin’s gaze.

"Miss Feng, I’ve heard you are so enamored that you have thrown yourself at us, wishing to become my man’s concubine?" Su Yunjin’s casual remark sank Qiaoqiao’s heart from the top of her head to the soles of her feet with guilt.

Her hands were already slick with sweat.

Qiaoqiao, plucking up her courage, nodded, "Madam Gu, Qiaoqiao truly loves Master Gu and pleads for your kindness. Please, speak well on my behalf so that Master Gu will take me in!"

Ha! Haha!

Su Yunjin had never seen someone as shameless as the woman before her.

Qiaoqiao’s words had completely refreshed Su Yunjin’s world view.

Qiaoqiao had no idea what Su Yunjin was thinking. In her mind, wasn’t it normal for wealthy men in ancient times to have multiple wives and concubines? This was a common practice, wasn’t it?

The Gu family had vast assets and wealth—what was wrong with having one or two more women? Wasn’t it perfectly normal? Besides, now that Madam Gu was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to attend to Master Gu, if she, Qiaoqiao, stayed behind, she could take care of Master Gu instead.
