Chapter 2140: You Two Can Sleep Here
Mo Juechen hadn’t killed Ning Shu yet because he hadn’t gotten what he wanted. Ning Shu suspected that he’d definitely kill her the moment he got what he was looking for.
“I don’t care where you sleep.” Mo Juechen lay down on the bed, then sat up again. “Change the quilt and the pillow.”
Ning Shu ignored him. Occupying her room wasn’t enough, now he wanted to treat her like a maid? He could keep on dreaming.
It was just that Ning Shu couldn’t beat Mo Juechen right now, otherwise, she’d just throw him out.
Her physique was weak, her spiritual roots were poor, and even her cultivation progress was slow.
Ning Shu turned to leave the room. Gu Rui asked, “Where are you going so late at night?”
“I’m going to sleep with Xi Tao. You two can sleep here.” Ning Shu closed the door. “Have fun.”
Ning Shu knocked on Xi Tao’s door. When Xi Tao saw Ning Shu, she rubbed her eyes and asked, “Miss, are you hungry?”
“Don’t bring up food, I haven’t eaten a midnight snack for a long time. I have no place to sleep, so I want to squeeze in with you,” Ning Shu said.
In the end, Ning Shu and Xi Tao both squeezed into Xi Tao’s tiny bed. Ning Shu slept on her side. When she woke up, her whole body ached.
Xi Tao didn’t sleep well either.
Ning Shu returned to her room filled with anger. Mo Juechen had already left. He probably went to treat his injuries.
After breakfast, Gu Rui came to find Ning Shu and said that he would take her to check on the Fang family’s stores.
Ning Shu got ready and went out with Gu Rui.
They sat in a sedan chair. When the four sedan chairmen lifted Ning Shu, they groaned.
Ning Shu thought to herself, it was fine as long as their waists didn’t snap.
The sedan chair swayed lightly and Ning Shu had almost fallen asleep when they came to a stop.
“Miss, we’re here.” Xi Tao lifted the curtain.
Ning Shu got out of the sedan chair and looked up at the signboard. This was a tea shop.
Gu Rui walked in first. Ning Shu checked the tea leaves and asked the shop assistant to wrap up a little of each tea.
“Why are you bringing so much tea back?” Gu Rui asked in surprise.
“I have to taste the different tea leaves,” Ning Shu said. “Tea can also help you lose weight.”
Gu Rui nodded. “True.”
Next, they went to the pharmacy, and Ning Shu asked the shop assistant to grab some medicine for her.
“You want to take medicine?” Gu Rui shook his head. “You can’t just take medicine whenever you wish.”
“It’s okay, I have a prescription: a prescription for weight loss. I want to lose weight.” Ning Shu spoke to the assistant, “Fill it according to what I said.”
Next, they went to the grain store.
Ning Shu got some rice.
Gu Rui saw that Ning Shu wanted to get something everywhere they went, but he was not in the mood to take Ning Shu on a stroll around the city.
Ning Shu’s body was quite eye-catching, and people recognized her at a glance wherever they went.
It was well known that the lady of the Fang family was a big fatty.
“I’m going to give you the account book. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me. If I’m not at home, ask the accountant,” Gu Rui said when they returned home.
Ning Shu squinted her eyes and asked, “Why are you letting me learn this? It feels like you’re leaving.”
Gu Rui nodded. “I plan on leaving the Fang family. I have something to take care of.”
“Where are you going?” Ning Shu asked. Was it to undertake the great task of restoring his kingdom?
Ning Shu said with worry, “Can’t you stay? You know I can’t take care of the family’s affairs at all. What will I do if you leave?”
“Don’t worry, there are shopkeepers in every store. You just need to check the accounts every month. You don’t need to worry,” Gu Rui said gently.
