Chapter 15 015: Encounter with Ye Jin

After saying this, the third master clapped his hands.

Soon, a maid came in. The man looked up at Gui Shang and asked.

"Anything you want to eat?"

Gui Shang was leaning on a chair and was in a daze. She quickly came back to her senses when she heard someone calling her.

Gui Shang tilted his chin and thought carefully. After going through some of the delicious food mentioned in the book in his mind, he ordered the meal without ceremony.

The maid didn't know where she got a notebook from, and she took notes while waiting for the merchant to return, and soon went down to prepare.

*
Yu Sui sat on the chair, tilted his chin and looked at Gui Shang, and asked curiously: "Hey, what is your name? We can't keep saying 'hello'."

Gui Shang raised his eyebrows and said openly, "My surname is Jiang, just call me Miss Jiang."

Yu Sui nodded when he heard the words, his chin rested on the edge of the table, and his arms hung on both sides of his body.

"Okay Miss Jiang, I am Yu Sui, and he is my brother Yu An. Just follow my brother and call me Sui Sui."

Gui Shang did not refute, but curled his lips after hearing Yu Sui's words.

"Yu Sui, Yu An, it seems your parents love you very much."

Choosing the words "Sui" and "An" means peace and security every year, right?

Yu Sui played with his fingers absentmindedly, his tone a little sad.

"Yeah...my parents were very good to me and my brother, but they left a little early - I didn't even have time to take one last look at them."

When she was very young, before the drought that year, their family was in harmony with their neighbors and happy.

But because of the severe drought in the second year, all the crops in the land were harvested, and even their only water source, the small river guarding the village intersection, dried up.

After the severe drought came the famine. At that time, some people would not hesitate to exchange their children for food in order to survive, or they could not bear to exchange their children with strangers for food.

It was such an ordinary night that a disaster victim fell in love with her and wanted to exchange children with her parents.

In order to protect her, her parents stopped the hungry victims, while her brother escaped with her.

When I went back to find my parents, they had become a bowl of soup in someone else's pot.

Sometimes she kept thinking-if she didn't exist, would her parents not have to die?

She took all the responsibilities on herself, and she had nightmares almost every day in those days. In the dream, her parents were crying in the pot and kept calling her name.

Yu An lowered his eyes after hearing Yu Sui's words, the veins in his clenched fists were slightly exposed, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly.

He pursed his lips, looked at Yu Sui with tears in his eyes, and patted her shoulder.

After Yu Sui felt his brother's silent comfort, he could no longer bear to cry on his shoulder.

Yu An sighed softly in his heart, he lowered his head to look at Yu Sui, and softly hummed a song that his mother often sang when she was still alive.

Cry, cry out all the sadness in your heart.

As long as you don't keep it in your heart and make yourself uncomfortable, you can do whatever you want with him.

Gui Shang was silent for a long time in his seat. Looking at the heartbroken Yu Sui in Yu An's arms, he spoke awkwardly.

"...I'm sorry to make you sad, you..."

Yu An shook his head at her, picked up the handkerchief on the side and wiped Yu Sui's tears.

His tone was almost gentle: "Sui Sui, eat first, then you will have the strength to cry when you are full, right?"

Yu Sui raised his head from his shoulder while sobbing, wiped the tears on his face with his hand, and nodded. *
The three of them ate quietly at the dining table, no one spoke.

After eating some, Gui Shang felt a little full. When he stood up and was about to tell them that he was leaving first, he was suddenly stopped by Yu An.

"I'll ask Xiaoyin to take you to find a place to live. You can stay with the gang these days."

Gui Shang did not refuse. She nodded to him, said hello to Yu Sui, and left with the maid serving them.

Not long after the two went out, rain began to fall.

When Gui Shang was about to go somewhere else to take shelter from the rain, Xiaoyin, who had been silent all this time, conjured an umbrella out of nowhere and hit her on the head.

She and the maid continued walking towards their destination quietly in the rain. When they were turning a corner, they suddenly met Ye Jin who was walking from the opposite side.

Both of them were stunned for a moment, and then quickly turned sideways to make way for each other.

After realizing that the person opposite made the same move as themselves, Gui Shang and Ye Jin were confused for a moment.

The maid noticed the awkward atmosphere between the two and whispered in Gui Shang's ear.

"This is the second boss, he..."

Gui Shang reacted instantly, interrupted what the maid was about to say, nodded to Ye Jin, and quickly pulled the maid beside him away.

The maid Xiaoyin was confused by Gui Shang's sudden movement, and could only follow Gui Shang stupidly for a long distance.

After realizing that he was going further and further away, he finally reacted and looked at Gui Shang in confusion.

"Why do you want to..."

Gui Shang made some random remarks to temporarily fool her, but he couldn't say that he was trying to avoid that old boy Ye Jin.

It was normal for her not to recognize Ye Jin. After all, she only had the plot in her mind and no memory of the original person. But he didn't recognize her. Why?

Gui Shang struggled to recall the plot of the book he had read, and finally found some traces in the corners of his memory.

The book mentions that the original owner spent many years cultivating in a temple in the imperial capital due to his frailty and illness, and was only allowed to return home by his father on some important days.

As a result, only some people in the Prime Minister's Mansion knew what Mr. Gui Shang looked like. The rest of the people in the imperial capital knew that there was such a person in the Prime Minister's Mansion but did not know the appearance of the original owner.

Gui Shang curled his lips speechlessly, but he was still cultivating his body. Cultivating is not self-cultivation.

The original owner's miserable father did this just because he didn't like her daughter.

After all, he relied on his father-in-law's relationship to achieve success in the first place. In addition, he had a hand in the destruction of the General's Mansion, so he felt guilty.

I just felt sorry for the original mother, who had her parents and entire family wiped out without her knowledge.

Although she escaped this disaster because she married her original father, she eventually fell into depression because of this incident and died of illness soon after.

*
Gui Shang looked around and found that although the location was relatively remote, the small details were handled quite well.

The maid Xiaoyin was hesitant to speak. Gui Shang couldn't help but frowned when he saw the other party hesitating.

"What's wrong? Is this a forbidden area within your gang?"

Xiaoyin shook her head, "That's not true."

"This is not a gang forbidden area, but the residence of the big boss..."
