Chapter 323 Xie Hefan is leaving
After Jiang Qinian left, Jiang Yimo and General Gu also returned to the house to greet Xie Hefan.
In fact, Xie Hefan came here today not just to visit the Gu Mansion, he also had an important purpose - to say goodbye to Miss Jiang.
However, things in the world are always unpredictable. When Xie Hefan came to Wutong Courtyard, he found that Jiang Yimo had already gone out with two maids.
After some inquiries, he learned that they went to Gu's Mansion, and he followed them without hesitation.
Coincidentally, he also saw Jiang Qinian insulting his daughter.
Xie Hefan had heard about Jiang Yimo's experience.
However, he never imagined that the legendary "father" would be so bad, even worse than the rumors said.
The scene before him filled him with anger and sympathy.
He couldn't imagine how Jiang Yimo had survived in such an environment all these years.
Then, he could no longer hold back and spoke up for Miss Jiang.
Now that he had come to the Gu Residence, all of Miss Jiang's elders were there, and they had just moved to a new house, so he first greeted Miss Jiang's maternal grandfather and uncle and aunt, and gave them a small gift. Then, he asked Miss Jiang to come out of the Gu Residence to discuss something.
"General Gu, Uncle Yuanshan and Auntie, you stayed in the Evil King's Mansion for a few days before, and I was sick and couldn't get out of bed. Although I know you are also living in the Evil King's Mansion, I haven't visited you yet. I am really ashamed!"
"Besides, General Gu moved to a new house two days ago, and as his junior, I should have come to congratulate him. But I still couldn't get out of bed. I only came to visit him when I felt better these two days. I'm really sorry." He said apologetically.
General Gu waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Nini told me about your situation. You were seriously injured that night. It was a miracle that Nini was able to save your life. You really need to rest more. Don't worry about these etiquettes."
Gu Yuanshan also smiled and said, "Yes, whenever you come to our Gu Mansion, we welcome you. Why bother with these details?"
Madam Gu also asked with concern: "Master Xie, your illness is not serious now, right? Do you want Nini to take a look at you again?"
Xie Hefan felt the sincere love and care of the Gu family, and a warmth welled up in his heart.
He once had a warm family - with his parents and brothers and sisters, and they cared for him from the bottom of their hearts just like the people in the Gu family.
But later, his family was wiped out by the people of Baiguimen, and now only his mother who was seriously ill in bed and his little sister who was poisoned and mute by the bad guys were left. Thinking of this, he hated the people of Baiguimen and gnashed his teeth in anger.
"Thank you for your concern. I have recovered a lot. This time, in addition to apologizing and congratulating you, I also have something I want to say to Miss Jiang." He said solemnly.
After he finished speaking, General Gu and the others looked at each other, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
"Oh? What's the matter? Feel free to tell me." General Gu said generously.
He took a deep breath, then slowly said: "It's like this, I want to ask Miss Jiang out for a walk, I have something to say to her alone."
Hearing this, General Gu and others were slightly stunned.
In fact, they noticed at the door that Xie Hefan had a different emotion towards Nini in his eyes, but they were not sure what it was.
Gu Yuanshan looked at Xie Hefan, then at Jiang Yimo, and then smiled and said, "Is that so? Then you two can go out for a walk."
Xie Hefan nodded, without even having time to take a sip of the tea on the table. He said goodbye to everyone, and then walked out of the Gu Mansion with Jiang Yimo and her servant.
After leaving Gu's house, Xie Hefan was actually a little nervous. Jiang Yimo didn't rush him to speak, so they just strolled on the street for a long time...
He slowly spoke, "Miss Jiang, I will be going back tonight and leaving the Imperial City. This time I failed to kill the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect to avenge my family, and I almost lost my life. Suddenly I feel so incompetent."
"Hey, don't blame yourself too much about this. The leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect was too cunning. Even when the Evil King and his men surrounded him, he still fell into his trap and was stabbed and let run away..."
Jiang Yimo smiled and comforted him, saying that she didn't mean to talk about Feng Wuhen's embarrassment in front of others.
Because the last time Feng Wuhen was stabbed by someone from the Hundred Ghosts Gate... it was also related to her, because Feng Wuhen thought that the people from the Hundred Ghosts Gate had captured her, so in order to save her, she fell into that woman's trap - and was stabbed in the lower abdomen by the woman who looked very similar to her.
She knew that Feng Wuhen was very strong, but no matter how strong a person is, he has weaknesses, and the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect obviously seized on his weakness, which allowed him to escape so easily.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Xie Hefan did not kill the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yimo couldn't help but recall the scene when Feng Wuhen was stabbed in the lower abdomen. His face was pale and the wounds on his body were still bleeding, but he still forced himself to tell her that he was fine.
She felt very sad and blamed herself at the time. If she had learned superb martial arts like Feng Wuhen, perhaps she could have flown out like him and caught up with the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect.
Thinking of this, she came back to her senses and smiled and comforted him, "But it doesn't matter. We still have a chance. One day we will catch the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect."
Xie Hefan nodded, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Well, I will definitely strengthen my martial arts when I go back, make myself stronger, and avenge my family!"
Jiang Yimo looked at him, gave him a thumbs up and cheered him on.
Just then, a gust of wind blew, bringing a hint of coolness.
Jiang Yimo looked up at the sky and saw dark clouds, it seemed like it was going to rain.
"It looks like it's going to rain. Let's find a place to take shelter," she said.
Xie Hefan nodded, and the two of them quickened their pace, looking for a place to shelter from the rain.
Finally, they found an inn, walked into the store, ordered a pot of hot tea, sat by the window, and watched the rain outside.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, hitting the windows, making crackling sounds.
Jiang Yimo drank her tea quietly, but her mind was full of thoughts. She chatted awkwardly with Xie Hefan face to face.
When Xie Hefan talked about his quirky sister, the color in his eyes suddenly darkened.
His sister used to be a talkative, lively and cheerful little girl. But after something happened at home, she can no longer speak. She has become depressed and is no longer as lively, active and talkative as before.
"Master Xie, don't worry. Why don't you wait for a few days for me to arrange the things on hand, and then I will go back with you to see your mother and sister Jin."
"Well, Miss Jiang, I am not happy with what you said. I once thought about asking you to accompany me back to the villa, but last night my family sent me a secret letter saying that something happened in the villa and I needed to go back to deal with it urgently, so I can't wait for you."
