Chapter 280 - 280 Meeting Gu Rou Again
280 Meeting Gu Rou Again
“Heh, this little old man is quite stubborn today. He’ll let go after saying a few words in the past.”
As Jiang Yi spoke, she was about to attack when Gu Man stopped her.
She looked down at the old man and realized that he kept repeating the same sentence as if he could not hear their conversation or sense the gazes around him.
“This old man seems to have gone even crazier. A while ago, he just pulled people and asked if they wanted it. Now, he’s actually holding onto them and not letting go.”
“I’m guessing he thinks that Miss Gu looks gullible, but he didn’t expect to meet someone difficult this time.”
…
The people here had all set up stalls here for a long time, so they naturally knew that Old Master Cui and the Ghost King treated Gu Man differently.
Usually, when they saw Gu Man come, they would give her a discount. This old man was still holding on to her. If he made Gu Man angry, this old man would probably not be in the ghost market tomorrow.
Impatience gradually appeared in Gu Man’s eyes. She exerted a little force on her legs and the old man let go for a moment. Just as she was about to walk forward, the old man grabbed her pants again.
“Miss, please…”
“Sister, why are you here?”
Just as Gu Man was thinking about how to break free from the old man’s restraints, a gentle voice sounded in her ear.
As soon as Gu Man turned around, she saw Gu Rou’s familiar face. Disgust rose in her eyes, and her already impatient mood worsened.
These two people did not remain at the police station for the truth to be investigated and came to the ghost market?
It was Gu Rou and Zhang Li. Gu Rou had slandered Gu Man at the police station.
She had pulled Zhang Yue to the Ghost Market to try her luck. If she could get good jade and the Zhang Family could testify, so what if Gu Man had the Cui Family behind her?
However, she did not expect to meet Gu Man in the ghost market.
Looking at the unfamiliar man beside her, Gu Rou asked softly, “Sister, who’s the boy beside you? I clearly remember that it wasn’t him last time.”
Although Gu Rou did not know Jiang Yi’s identity, she could not stand the fact that handsome men kept appearing around Gu Man. She even deliberately tried to sow discord between the two of them, wanting to see Gu Man stomp her feet.
When Jiang Yi heard this, his expression indeed darkened. However, Xiang Yin’s figure immediately appeared in his mind and he sighed heavily.
Although that man had the charm of maturity, he was young and was definitely more likable than that man.
An inexplicable desire to win rose in Jiang Yi’s heart. His gaze changed from unhappiness to determination, but he did not cause a scene with Gu Man as Gu Rou had imagined.
On the other hand, Zhang Yue, who was beside her, looked very bad.
Thinking about how the two of them had met in the ghost market last time and how he had even asked Gu Man who Jiang Yi was, he was met with a cold face. He immediately scolded, “Gu Man, even if you don’t cherish yourself, you should know your place. Do you know what you’re doing now?”
“Then tell me what I’m doing now.”
Gu Man’s tone was a little impatient. She pulled her foot out from under the old man’s hand. The old man lost his balance and fell to the ground.
“Not only are you shameless, but you’re also disrespectful to the old man!”
Zhang Yue only felt that the nameless anger in his heart came for no reason, but it burned brighter and brighter, making him unhappy no matter how he looked at the two people in front of him.
Before Gu Man could explain, the old man grabbed her trouser leg again. He was like a piece of chewed gum that could not be removed.
However, this time, his words finally changed. “Please save her. Save my poor daughter!”
“Sister, no matter what, you can’t be so rude to an old man. He just wants to save his daughter.”
“What does saving his daughter have to do with me? If you’re really kind, why don’t you help him?”
Gu Man no longer had any patience in her words. Not only had she been pestered time and time again, but she had also encountered Gu Rou and Zhang Li.
“Miss, please save my daughter. Only you can save her. Do you want stones? I have a lot here.”
The old man cried and pushed all the stones in the stall to Gu Man, but those stones had no spiritual energy at all.
