Chapter 2124: The Three Young Masters

Ning Shu glanced at the three men from the corner of her eyes. She observed the situation in the mourning hall.

Gu Rui, who was kneeling by Ning Shu, asked her, “Are you feeling better?”

Gu Rui’s voice was like a gently flowing spring. He spoke slowly, and his voice carried a sense of calmness and distance, like he was above the common mortal world.

Ning Shu’s ears twitched. She lowered her head and said, “Much better.”

“Since the fat miss is here, I’ll leave first.” Mo Juechen stood up and took the sackcloth he was wearing off his head. “This is the first time in my life that I’ve had to wear this kind of thing.”

Mo Juechen’s hair was like ink. His beautiful demeanor wasn’t diminished in the slightest by the coarse hemp cloth.

His expression was indifferent and his movements were casual. He effortlessly gave off an aura of wickedness.

This was a man who was used to doing whatever he wanted. He was also someone whose hands were stained with blood.

“I called him my adoptive father once and watched over his spirit for a day. I’d say that’s good enough.” Mo Juechen walked out of the hall and disappeared in a flash.

Ning Shu: …

Geez, he was even a martial arts master.

“Big Brother Rui, I’m a little hungry. I want to eat something,” Li Jiuge said to Gu Rui. He winked at Ning Shu while he was talking.

Gu Rui nodded. “Go ahead.”

Li Jiuge was only around fourteen years old.

The old man had chosen Li Jiuge as a candidate for a husband? That was simply deranged!

Ning Shu and Gu Rui knelt side by side in front of the coffin. Ning Shu reached out to take a stack of paper money and burn it.

As soon as she stretched out her hand, she saw her carrot-like fingers. The cold weather had turned them red.

Ning Shu looked at Gu Rui’s hands. They were slender and white like jade.

Ning Shu: →_→

Why did men need such beautiful hands?

Forget about burning the money, she’d just kowtow instead.

Ning Shu only kowtowed twice before she was panting heavily. Her body was too out of shape. She couldn’t kowtow at all.

Heavens, life was rough for a fatty.

Gu Rui glanced at Ning Shu and said, “Fang Lanxin, don’t be too sad. I promised Foster Father that I would take care of you.”

Ning Shu hummed in response but didn’t speak.

She was completely clueless right now. Without the original storyline, she had no way of knowing anything.

She didn’t know the details or personalities of the three adopted sons.

She didn’t know the relationship between Fang Lanxin and these people.

She had no choice but to figure it out herself.

After seeing the three men, Ning Shu didn’t think that they would care about the Fang family’s wealth.

Plus, they even had to marry her, a chubby orphan girl, to gain anything.

Since she still had no information on the current situation, it was better for her to keep quiet and not make any waves.

After a while, Ning Shu’s body couldn’t continue to kneel. She tried to shift her position.

“Xi Tao, help your lady to rise,” Gu Rui said to Xi Tao.

Xi Tao immediately went to support Ning Shu, but Ning Shu was too heavy. Xi Tao’s face flushed red from exertion.

Ning Shu eventually managed to sit on a chair, which groaned under her weight.

Ning Shu: …

This was so frickin’ embarrassing!

Gu Rui knelt on the ground alone. He gracefully put paper money into the brazier.

Gu Rui’s expression was neutral, without exposing any of his thoughts.
