In Daxing Village, Jiao Hang picked up the brewed medicine jar and carefully poured the medicine juice into a bowl.
It was already the fourth day since Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng went up the mountain.
If nothing went wrong, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng would come down the mountain today.
After Qi Juan drank the medicine, the poison in her body had mostly been detoxed, but there might still be some residual poison left.
To be honest, what she had experienced recently made Qi Juan feel like she was in a dream.
Ever since she met Liu Mingkun, the dream had begun.
In the beginning, she was very happy!
She thought she was lucky to have met a man worth entrusting her life to.
However, reality made her see Liu Mingkun’s true colors.
She thought that she could be herself and stay away from bad people.
Unexpectedly, Liu Mingkun flew into a rage and poisoned her.
After being tortured by the poison countless times, Qi Juan had thought of compromising and begging Liu Mingkun.
However, in the end, her pride made her rather be tortured by the poison than be controlled by Liu Mingkun for the rest of her life.
She was a person who yearned for freedom. She wanted to live according to her will, instead of becoming someone else’s puppet.
Therefore, she would rather be tortured to death by the poison than beg Liu Mingkun.
She was prepared to die, but the heavens had given her a big surprise.
Not only did Liu Mingkun get his retribution, but the poison in her body was also detoxed.
At this moment, all sorts of good things happened to her, making her overjoyed.
To be honest, this feeling of being revived was really too good!
It was precisely because of this feeling that Qi Juan became very cautious about Jiao Hang’s feelings.
She was grateful to Jiao Hang.
Because without Jiao Hang begging Luo Cheng, Luo Cheng wouldn’t have come over to detoxify her.
Therefore, Jiao Hang was also her savior.
However, facing Jiao Hang’s marriage proposal, Qi Juan was a little lost!
Her parents had asked her if she was willing to get married.
Qi Juan didn’t know how to answer!
Therefore, she choose to remain silent!
Because she didn’t know what kind of feelings she had for Jiao Hang.
Was she grateful, or did she reallv have romantic feelinqs for him?
Because she didn’t understand, she didn’t give an answer.
Jiao Hang brought the medicine over and placed it on a wooden stool outside.
Jiao Hang said happily, “Miss Qi, the medicine is ready! I’ll leave the medicine here to cool down first. Remember to drink it later! Mr. Luo and the others should be back soon. When the time comes, they can take your pulse and see how much of the poison in your body has been detoxed!” Qi Juan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Jiao Hang’s words.
“Are you here to ask for the results?”
“Huh?” Jiao Hang was stunned for a moment before touching his head and asking, “What outcome?”
When Qi Juan heard this, she replied through the door, “Don’t you want to ask the outcome of your marriage proposal?”
When Jiao Hang heard this, he immediately realized something.
With his back facing Qi Juan’s door, Jiao Hang sat on the stairs under the roof.
“Miss Qi, I’m not a very smart person! It’ll be a lie to say that I don’t want to know the results! After all, I really like you, but I don’t think there’s a need for you to feel a headache because of this. I invited Mr. Luo to propose marriage just to show you my feelings. As for you, just do as you wish! If you like me, agree to this marriage. If you don’t like me, you can reject this marriage directly! ”
Qi Juan didn’t answer Jiao Hang, but she was thinking about something.
When Jiao Hang didn’t hear her answer, he sighed.
“Miss Qi, if you don’t know how to reject this marriage because I begged Mr.
Luo to detoxify you, you can say it directly. You don’t have to worry about this. Even if I don’t say it, Mr. Luo and the consort will detoxify you. After all, you’re also a victim of Liu Mingkun. Mr. Luo and the consort are kind-hearted people.
They won’t ignore you!”
When Qi Juan heard Jiao Hang’s assurance, she finally felt relieved.
“I have such concerns! I’m not rejecting you, but I haven’t figured out how I feel about you at all! I don’t want to marry you just because I’m grateful to you. If that’s the case, it won’t be fair to you or me. But in such a short period of time, I really can’t figure out what else I have other than gratitude for you!” When Qi Juan heard Jiao Hang’s words, she simply revealed her concerns. When Jiao Hang heard this, Qi Juan immediately thought about it seriously.
“I understand what you’re thinking! Indeed, we haven’t known each other for long! Originally, I wanted to take it slow, but after this matter is over, I’ll leave this place with Mr. Luo and the consort. It won’t be easy for me to see you in the future. Miss Qi, if you’re willing, why don’t you follow the consort and do something to earn some money first? This way, we can spend more time together and get to know each other better!”
At this point, Jiao Hang thought of something and quickly added,
“Don’t worry, the consort is a very good person. As long as you do your best, she won’t mistreat you. If you’re still unwilling to marry me after interacting with me during this time, I’ll personally tell Mr. Luo to let you leave and find your happiness! ”
Qi Juan was a little tempted by Jiao Hang’s words.
It wasn’t because she was going to work for the consort, but because she could continue to learn more Jiao Hang.
To be honest, with her current situation, it wasn’t suitable for her to stay in the village.
Although all of this was Liu Mingkun’s fault, some people in the village still said nasty things about her.
In the past, she was about to die, so she didn’t care about the rumors outside.
But now that she could live on, she naturally had to plan for her future.
Besides, working for the consort was definitely a good thing!
Even if she didn’t marry Jiao Hang in the future, she could still have a job and earn some money to support herself.
“You said it. You can’t go back on your word!” Qi Juan thought for a moment and hit her lip as she asked. “I can try to get along with von! Let’s set three
months as the time limit!”
Jiao Hang didn’t expect Qi Juan to really agree to his suggestion, so he was overjoyed.
“Alright, alright, alright. Don’t worry, I won’t go back on my word!”
Qi Changliang, who had been listening to the conversation, smiled.
To be honest, he thought highly of this young man called Jiao Hang.
He was a reliable person with a good personality.
Now that his daughter had relented and was willing to spend three months with him, this meant that his daughter had Jiao Hang in her heart!
