Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1051: Chapter 1052: Who is So Impatient to Dare...

When Han Xinrui heard that his brother was planning to venture to the General’s mansion at night, he hurriedly said, ”Gong Juese, a woman, has such high skills, then Gong Juechen’s skills must also be exceptional. Brother, even if you go at night, you might not be able to see him, and you might even get hurt. In my opinion, you shouldn’t take this risk.”

Han Xinche replied, ”You don’t need to worry, Gong Juechen is only adept in medicine, he doesn’t know Martial Arts.”

Upon hearing this, Han Xinrui was immediately overjoyed, but soon after, he felt a bit worried and cautioned, ”Still, in the General’s mansion there’s an expert named Gong Juese and Meng Lanqing is also staying there now. You need to be cautious at night.”

Han Xinche said, ”I know.”

...

It was a quiet night.

Gong Juechen was originally sleeping with a thin blanket when he suddenly heard a faint noise outside the door. His ears twitched, and he immediately opened his eyes alertly.

Before even turning his head, he smelled the scent of a narcotic.

With a sneer in his heart, he shouted loudly, ”Se Se! Se Se! Help! Se Se, come and save your brother! Someone is trying to knock me out!”

He hadn’t planned on letting anyone know that he knew Martial Arts, so he could only use his sister’s help.

Gong Juese lived in the courtyard next to Gong Juechen’s. Hearing his voice, she didn’t even bother putting on her outer garment; she threw off her blanket and rushed out in just her undergarments.

Meng Lanqing was also awakened by the noise, though she wasn’t as quick to act as Gong Juese.

”Who’s so impatient to live that they dare try to subdue my brother?!” Gong Juese burst out of her room with these words.

Just as she was about to climb over the wall to her brother’s courtyard, she saw a figure in black fleeing over the wall from her brother’s side. Gong Juese wanted to chase after him, but was also worried about her brother.

Deciding not to chase, she quickly climbed the wall to see how her brother was doing.

Without waiting for Gong Juechen to open the door, Gong Juese kicked it open. The room indeed had a faint smell of narcotic smoke, and her eyebrows instantly furrowed tight.

”Brother, brother, are you alright?” Gong Juese didn’t care about propriety between men and women—after all, she didn’t understand such things—and rushed into Gong Juechen’s room.

In the room, on the bed, Gong Juechen was already sitting up, clutching the blanket, showing a pair of peach blossom eyes, much like a good family woman who had been violated.

And his words were quite similar too.

”I only heard Gong Juechen say in an incredibly plaintive tone, ”Se Se, someone tried to knock out your brother... Luckily, I’m particularly sensitive to drugs... But Se Se, aren’t only girls supposed to be drugged, making it easier for someone to take advantage of them... Why would someone want to drug me?”

Meng Lanqing walked in just in time to hear Gong Juechen say this and truly wanted to roll his eyes at him unceremoniously, but he didn’t and instead went straight to Gong Juese to hand her overcoat to her.

”What do you look like coming out like this? Put it on quickly!”

While putting on her overcoat, Gong Juese said, ”Wasn’t I also just worried about my brother? If I had taken the time to dress, perhaps my brother might have been killed by now.”

Meng Lanqing said indifferently, ”I’m not blaming you.” He was just a little jealous.

His wife didn’t know at all how to observe the proprieties expected of women, even coming out in just her undergarments like this. Gong Juechen was still a man, and Meng didn’t want his wife appearing like this in front of Gong Juechen or any other man.
