Shen Yingxue's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard a familiar voice.
"Benefactor, save me!"
Guo Zhao stopped in front of the two of them. He had a broadsword on his waist, his face was calm and he was still wearing official uniform. Zhou Shui'an's eyes shrank, and he slightly let go of Shen Yingxue's hand, but when he saw his face, Zhou Shui'an A flash of hatred flashed in his eyes.
"Shen Yingxue is my wife, I advise you to mind your own business and get out of the way!"
"Benefactor, don't listen to him. We have reconciled and he wants to kidnap me!"
Shen Yingxue explained quickly, fearing that Guo Zhao would believe him.
When Guo Zhao heard the words of peace in her mouth, a flash of emotion flashed across his eyes. When he looked at Shen Yanqing, he became even more cold and ruthless. He pulled out a big knife and put it on his neck.
"I said let her go!"
Guo Zhao's aura and coercion are too strong. His sword has truly drank blood and is as sharp as Guo Zhao's.
The blade of the knife was close to Zhou Shui'an's neck, and it was bone-chilling. If he was not careful, he could cut his throat and bleed him. This kind of fear of facing life and death made Zhou Shui'an tremble and completely panic.
"I let you go, I let you go, you put the knife down first..."
With that said, he let go of Shen Yingxue's hand and moved cautiously behind him, trying to get further away from the blade.
Shen Yingxue broke away from his restraint and ran quickly behind Guo Zhao. Her heart was beating fast, her mind was blank, her fingers unconsciously grabbed the corner of Guo Zhao's clothes, and her body was shaking.
Guo Zhaoruo noticed it and glanced down slightly. The woman's fingers were like peeling onions and tightly grasped the corner of his clothes. There was a strong contrast between the plain white fingers and the black official uniform. Guo Zhao's eyes shrank, and a feather swept across his heart. , itchy.
Zhou Shui'an also saw Shen Yingxue's trust, and the hatred in his eyes became deeper and deeper. His eyes seemed to be spitting poison, and he wanted to cut Shen Yingxue into pieces with a thousand knives.
"Get out of here!"
Guo Zhao frowned and blocked Shen Yingxue behind him to prevent her from bearing such strong malice. Zhou Shui'an laughed crazily.
"You are a bitch! Bitch! No wonder you have to be willing to go back to Zhou's house with me. It turns out that you are looking for a new home. You are so hungry to find such an old man!"
Zhou Shui'an was most proud of his appearance. He knew that Shen Yingxue liked a handsome white-faced scholar, but he was not such a cold and serious man at all.
Guo Zhao frowned and glanced aside subconsciously. Seeing him like this, Zhou Shui'an felt proud, thinking that he had exposed Shen Yingxue's true face.
This bitch is the best at lying. She said she would love him for the rest of her life, but now, she just divorced him, and she hooked up with another man just a few months ago.
When Shen Yingxue heard the dirty words he was saying, her head almost exploded with anger. Her fingertips turned white and she clenched one hand into a fist.
"Zhou Shui'an, you are shameless!" The upbringing she received since she was a child prevented her from saying other dirty words. She could only repeat shameless and shameless words over and over again. Zhou Shui'an showed no expression, but she herself turned red with anger.
"Oh, am I wrong? You don't want to go with me. You pounce on this man as soon as he comes. Shen Yingxue, why have I never seen you so mean before? You even support such an old man. He is so We are already a biological child at this age, so you don’t let me take a concubine because you want to be a concubine yourself!”
Zhou Shui'an's words stabbed her in the heart. Shen Yingxue looked down and saw that she was indeed holding the corner of Guo Zhao's clothes, and quickly let go. She looked panicked and shook her head crazily.
"I'm not, I don't, I don't want to be a concubine..."
Guo Zhao felt a little hurt when he saw her appearance, and he was even less patient with Zhou Shui'an.
"Guo doesn't have a family yet and doesn't know how to take a concubine. If he marries a wife, he will definitely be his wife!"
He spoke righteously and his righteousness was convincing. Shen Yingxue looked at him blankly.
Guo Zhao felt her eyes looking back at her. Their eyes met, and there was a surge of emotion in them. Shen Yingxue's heart skipped a beat and she looked away in panic.
She didn't dare to think whether Guo Zhao's words just now were addressed to Shen Yanqing or to her.
Zhou Shui'an was furious with jealousy, but he did not dare to resist due to his momentum.
"Shen Yingxue, you will regret it. I want to see if this man will always protect you!"
As he spoke, he took a sip at the two of them, turned around and left with hatred. Shen Yingxue only let out a breath when he was no longer visible.
Her legs were weak, and her steps were a little staggering as she walked out from behind Guo Zhao, so Guo Zhao subconsciously supported her.
The man's palm was hot and pressed against her delicate skin. Shen Yingxue felt that the skin he touched was going to be burned. She was panicked and quickly pulled it back, lowering her head and whispering thanks.
"Thanks to my benefactor today, otherwise I would have been captured by him."
Thinking of Zhou Shui'an's madness, Shen Yingxue felt frightened. In addition to Zhou Ling's time, Guo Zhao had already saved her twice, and this kindness became more and more important.
"It's okay, I'll take you back."
Guo Zhao pursed his lips and stared at the top of her head. He would not tell her how panicked he felt the moment he heard her cry for help. He rushed over without caring about his errands.
"No need, benefactor, I can do it myself..."
Shen Yingxue waved her hand and refused. She had already troubled him so much, how could she let him send her home? Moreover, they were alone, and it would not be good for the neighbors to see them.
"Walk!"
Regardless of her refusal, Guo Zhao took the first step, keeping a distance of two meters between the two, which not only cleared suspicion, but also protected her comfort.
Shen Yingxue felt like a fire was burning in her heart, burning her heart. She followed the man, her eyes unconsciously staring at his generous back, feeling so safe.
Guo Zhao's face was obviously cold, but it made people feel solid and reliable. Shen Yingxue clutched her handkerchief, and her lowered eyes hid all her emotions.
The two of them walked for less than a quarter of an hour before the Shen family arrived. Guo Zhao stopped at the street corner. Shen Yingxue didn't notice and almost bumped into him. Guo Zhao gently squeezed her shoulder with his palm, The voice is mellow and deep.
"Watch the road."
"oh oh."
Shen Yingxue's ears felt hot, and she stepped back embarrassedly. When she saw the surrounding scenery, she knew that she had been sent home.
"Thank you, my benefactor, for sending me back."
Guo Zhao looked at the tips of her blushing ears, and a smile flashed across his deep eyes. He always thought that delicate and crying women were troublesome, but he softened his heart when facing Shen Yingxue.
Guo Zhao was not stupid and knew that he was obsessed with Shen Yingxue. He had always been direct and never knew how to be roundabout when dealing with the people and things he wanted.
"Everything I said is true."
"What words?"
Shen Yingxue was confused and didn't understand what he said.
Guo Zhaoqing coughed and looked a little embarrassed in a rare way.
"Marry only your true wife."
Shen Yingxue's face turned red. Why did Guo Zhao say this to her? Could it be that what he said before was really to himself?
Obviously the two of them don't have a close relationship, how could he?
"My wife died young, and I have only one mother in the family. Now I am working as a county government official, and I get five taels of silver a month. If you are willing, we can get together."
"I……"
"You don't need to answer now, I'll give you time to think about it."
