Chapter 778: Chapter 779 Send Her Away, Annoyed_1

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi to speak, An Jing added, ”Who cares who she is? We’re not accompanying her anymore. Right, husband?”

”Mm,” Xiao Changyi agreed without a hint of objection.

...

Wild Goose Jade fainted again.

This time, Wild Goose Jade didn’t even last a day on her knees; she fainted after just eight hours, right outside the courtyard gate of An Jing and Xiao Changyi.

The moment An Jing learned from Meng Zhuqing that Wild Goose Jade had fainted again, she said, ”We have no obligation to take care of her anymore. She’s fainted and can’t walk away by herself; it’s up to you to make the effort to send her off. Just take her to the next county, find an inn, and arrange a room for her to stay in. Pay for three days of accommodation, and then you can ignore her too. If she wants to come back, don’t let her appear at our doorstep again. She’s too insensitive. Both my husband and I don’t want to see her again. It’s annoying.”

”Yes,” Meng Zhuqing replied, without any hesitation.

An Jing hesitated a moment before asking, ”Do you like her?”

Meng Zhuqing immediately knelt down and said, ”No matter what my feelings are towards her, I will not betray my lord! My brother feels the same!”

An Jing said, ”The Meng Family is known for its loyalty; I know you wouldn’t betray my husband, but you...”

”Ah...” An Jing sighed deeply before continuing, ”I’ve never seen you take a fancy to any girl before, and now that you finally have feelings for one, it’s just a pity... Her background is unclear, and her intentions may not be upright. You’d better stop thinking about her. Look for other girls in the future; I’ll help you keep an eye out. Your brother is already married; it’s time for you to settle down too.”

”Thank you, Madam,” he said.

”Now go ahead and send her off. Oh, and if Gong Jue Chen asks later, just say you sent her away. As for where, don’t tell him.”

It was the middle of the night, and Gong Jue Chen had already been knocked unconscious by Meng Zhuqing and was lying at the courtyard gate, with no telling when he would wake up.

Whether or not Gong Jue Chen truly liked Wild Goose Jade, she felt it was better not to let Gong Jue Chen know where Wild Goose Jade was. Sometimes, Gong Jue Chen could be really despicable.

”Yes,” Meng Zhuqing respectfully responded and went into Wild Goose Jade’s room, carried her out, hopped onto the horse cart, and took her to the neighboring county.

Gong Jue Chen awoke the next day while An Jing and Xiao Changyi were having breakfast.

An Jing and Xiao Changyi were used to Gong Jue Chen always waking up at meal times, with neither inner feelings nor outward appearances showing any ripple of disturbance.

After mooching breakfast at An Jing and Xiao Changyi’s place, Gong Jue Chen went to look for Wild Goose Jade in her room. Finding neither her nor her belongings there, he immediately rushed over, yelling at the top of his lungs towards An Jing and Xiao Changyi.

”Jingjing! Changyi! My wife has really eloped with Zhuzhu! All her things are gone from her room. She must have taken advantage of my unconsciousness and eloped with Zhuzhu! No, my wife is still ill; it must have been Zhuzhu who took her to elope! I must hunt them down! This is unbearable! After all the times I’ve been knocked out for her, they elope without even leaving me a note!”

Xiao Changyi acted as if Gong Jue Chen didn’t exist and continued to sweep the leaves off the courtyard with his broom.

An Jing also ignored Gong Jue Chen, continuing to play with her four children, allowing Gong Jue Chen to throw his one-man tantrum.

”My wife and Zhuzhu have run off, can you at least react a little?” Gong Jue Chen hollered and screamed in the yard for a long time. Seeing An Jing and Xiao Changyi as calm as still water, he immediately voiced his dissatisfaction.
