Countryside Romance

Ji Ge's gaze was sharp and piercing. The two judges struggled with guilt in their hearts, but they didn't dare to look straight at him.

However, Old Master Gu was not afraid of Ji Ge. His family's business was deeply rooted, and was something that Ji Ge, a young top scholar, could not shake. Even if he had a formidable teacher in charge of the Right Premier, given how far away he was from the capital, even if he had the heart of the Right Premier, he still wouldn't be able to get close.

Therefore, he leaned his body back, looked at the Ji Ge who stood up indignantly, and said with a smile,

"Although the second dish is excellent, it cannot be determined that she will be first. After all, everyone has different tastes. The reason why the two of them chose the others was naturally because they didn't like the dishes of Number Two. If not for Teacher Ji's first praise, the two of you would not have continued the conversation.

Old Master Gu's words were flawless.

Ji Ge was about to ask back, but he saw Mu Yun shake her head at him.

However, in the end, this competition was funded by the Gu family. What they wanted was the reputation and money the Gu family brought. Since Master Gu did not want to give her these, she had nothing else to say.

It was naturally impossible to say that she didn't have any resentment in her heart.

However, since Ji Ge could tell something was amiss, and the crowd below the stage weren't stupid, they must have already noticed something was amiss. It was just that they didn't say it out loud due to the Gu family's face.

She firmly believed that, through this matter, the Gu family's reputation would be greatly tarnished.

Thinking like this, that was enough.

Relying on the way Yan Wu was winning, Mu Yun left the stage early.

Seeing this, Ji Ge also withdrew from the judges and gathered with Lin Jinyan by Mu Yun's side.

"Those judges are all fools. How can they recognize the delicacies in the sky? "Since they like to eat the kind of food that even pigs and dogs would not smell, we should not advise them to turn back. Otherwise, it would be as if we are fighting over the unbearable food with them."

Hearing Ji Ge's indignation over this matter, Mu Yun felt very comfortable. She smiled and said,

"Forget about it, I feel like a stone has been lifted from my heart. I feel very hungry. Let's go to the restaurant and talk. Don't just stand there."

Ji Ge nodded in agreement. Lin Jinyan followed behind them as they went to the restaurant to eat.

At this moment, Madam Yuan just happened to arrive at the town. On the way, she heard the good news that Yan Wu had won first place in the competition. Just as she was about to look for Yan Wu, she saw Mu Yun and the other two walking towards the restaurant.

Ji Ge was still brooding over the fact that Mu Yun didn't win the championship. He said:

"That Chen family's girl doesn't know anything about cooking. Her cooking makes people nauseous. There's actually someone who would choose him! Old Master Gu had hosted this meeting. On the surface, it seemed fair, but the truth was that it didn't really matter. Otherwise, such a thing wouldn't have happened. "I wonder what Old Master Gu is up to?"

Mu Yun had already guessed what was going on, but she was too embarrassed to tell Ji Ge about it. She was the one who had tempted the mother and daughter of the Chen family to do it, so she could only smile without saying a word.

Mrs. Yuan, who was standing behind them, heard what Ji Ge said. She thought that Ji Ge had guessed their plans, so she quickly jumped out and pointed at Ji Ge.

"What do you mean there's a secret?" I see that you and Mu Yun always see each other frequently and speak in an ambiguous manner, so you must have something in mind! The competition has just ended, and you guys are already impatiently inviting each other out for dinner. What a filth. "

Hearing this, Mu Yun was very unhappy.

Giggle stood in front of her and said:

"Your Chen Clan is really magnanimous. Just by coming out for a meal, you already have the chance to arouse your suspicions."

"We are friends with Jingo, what's wrong with coming out to dinner? Instead, it was you two Chen family mother and daughter who went out of your way to achieve your goal. There must be some secret behind today's competition, right? "

Lin Jinyan was hinting that Yan Wu was carefully dressing up for the Gu family's old master and not for the culinary competition.

He was threatening the Yuan clan to shut up, otherwise, he would reveal this matter.

After having been threatened by them several times, Lady Yuan already understood the meaning of his gaze. Seeing it now made her tremble with fear. She hurriedly turned around and ran away.

Ji Ge looked at the Yuan clan's cowardly appearance and shook his head.

On the other side of the smoke.

She won first place in the competition, but she didn't congratulate her. When the results were announced, many of the spectators bitterly left. At this moment, only Old Master Gu and the judge, who had been silently supporting him, remained on the spot.

Master Gu handed the gift to Yan Wu.

Yan Wu embarrassedly took it over, as he looked at Old Master Gu with a pair of beautiful, emotional eyes.

Old Master Gu only felt half of his body go numb. When Yan Wu held the prize up in his palm, he secretly touched it.

That slippery feeling made Old Master Gu's heart itch.

Yan Wu received Master Gu's hint and secretly rejoiced in his heart as he said:

"Thank you, Old Master Gu, for your appreciation."

As she spoke, her arm was touching Old Master Gu's body, intentionally or unintentionally. Her actions were so secretive that the few spectators who initially wanted to see the aftermath avoided her eyes as they deeply felt that this competition had its connotations.

After everyone had left, Lady Yuan finally arrived.

Old Master Gu approached Yan Wu and said that he would treat her to a meal.

Yan Wu rejoiced in his heart. Resisting the urge to nod his head again and again, he shyly nodded his head.

Old Master Gu's heart itched even more when he saw her tactful appearance.

The two of them went to the restaurant to eat and specifically chose a room.

The moment the waiter went out, Master Gu impatiently pressed his hand on Yan Wu's leg. Yan Wu first dodging, as if to find out that can't hide, then blush, still let Master Gu take advantage of.

The more Old Master Gu touched, the more daring he became. Just as he was about to grab Yan Wu's chest with his pig hands, the waiter opened the door.

Old Master Gu thought it was Madam Gu. He was so shocked that he almost slipped under the table.

After they left, he muttered in a low voice:

"I thought it was the tigress, but she scared me to death."

Yan Wu looked at Master Gu's useless strength and felt displeased. He thought to himself: If Master Gu had always been so afraid of Madam Gu, then wouldn't it be as simple as floating clouds if she wanted to step on Madam Gu's head and stand at the top of the Gu family?

Although she had gotten a general idea of the Gu family's situation from Ah Cai and knew that Master Gu was afraid of them from the previous sale, she was still quite angry when she faced such a situation head on.

A man was so useless, he was even worse than an Elementary Scholar Ji Ge!

She was angry in her heart, but on the surface, she was on the verge of tears.

Old Master Gu raised his head and saw the beauty's tears. He cried out in heartache and hurriedly asked her what was wrong.

Yan Wu looked at Master Gu's careful appearance and felt that if he said what he wanted to say, Master Gu would be able to support her for a while even if he couldn't, so he said:

"I have admired Old Master Gu for a long time. I am satisfied that I was able to be so close to Master Gu today. However, thinking about how we will part ways after eating this meal, and how we will be strangers again when we meet again, my heart is filled with sorrow. "

Ever since Old Master Gu saw Yan Wu's beauty, he had never thought of giving his beauty to anyone else. Now that he had heard the beauty's "true emotions", he felt that this woman was his true love. He was reluctant to part with her:

"Since you've given me your heart, I naturally won't let go of your hand. How can you say that you're a stranger?"

Yan Wu saw that Master Gu wanted to say something, but hesitated. It was as if Old Master Gu had pushed Yan Wu to the limit. Yan Wu helplessly said:

"Your wife is such a domineering person, and she is the sworn enemy of you. Last time, I only spoke a few words to you before being beaten half to death. If I had followed you, old master …" Yan Wu said, as if he was extremely scared. His body trembled, and he couldn't help but lean towards Old Master Gu, "If I follow you, I can only rely on you." But since you love Madam so much, you must follow her wishes. If she wants to hit me … "Sob, sob, sob …"

Old Master Gu did not like Madam Gu in the first place, but because it was his mother's wedding, he could not disobey. At the beginning, Madam Gu had been very sweet and pleasant, and their lives had been peaceful and beautiful. However, after he took charge of the Gu family business, he met a lot of pretty girls. He also detested Madam Gu's looks, and with his status as a beauty, he gradually lost his affection for her.

Madam Gu was also strong. She knew that Master Gu could not resist the temptation of the outside world. After fighting over the favor a few times, she gave up on the idea of asking Master Gu to turn back and switched the topic. Since she was young, her body was full of brute force, and since Old Master Gu was unable to resist the wine and meat, she was able to control him. It was from that point on that Old Master Gu became fearful of his family, and he hated Madam Gu even more.

It had been almost a decade since he had faced such a situation. Old Master Gu felt that he had initially let it go out of guilt, so he did not hold any grudges. Then, with Madam Gu's methods, he could help him solve many problems that he was inconvenient to deal with.

But today, when the little girl he liked said it so bluntly, he felt angry on the one hand, but on the other hand, he really couldn't allow himself to be taken advantage of by Lady Gu.

With this thought in his mind, Old Master Gu took the opportunity to hug Yan Wu and said:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely protect you."

"Really?"

Yan Wu asked with a pout. His rosy face and wet eyes made Old Master Gu's body heat up. He couldn't care less about eating, he just wanted to bring Yan Wu back home.

Madam Gu had been looking at her new bracelet. When she heard that Master had brought someone back, she was so angry that smoke began to rise from her orifices. She threw the bracelet into the dressing table and lifted her skirt to look for Master Gu.

On the other hand, due to Madam Gu's vile nature, Old Master Gu had long been separated from her to sleep. Therefore, he had already stripped half of Yan Wu's clothes off by the time Madam Gu found him.

"Gu Ling Bo, you sure have a lot of guts! "He actually dared to bring wild chickens back home to steal."

When Yan Wu saw Lady Gu, he hurriedly crawled into bed, only revealing a pair of eyes.

When Old Master Gu saw her approaching aggressively, he straightened his body that was dressed in inner garments and said:

"What wild chicken? Yan Wu will become my concubine in the future, how can I be considered a wild chicken?"

When Madam Gu saw that he actually dared to talk back, she almost flipped backwards in anger. She pointed at the disheveled Old Master Gu and was speechless.

Having received Old Master Gu's guarantee, Yan Wu was no longer afraid. He stretched out his head, wrapped his arms around Old Master Gu's fat waist and mocked:

"Aiyo, so this is Madam Gu. Her complexion is yellow and she looks like she isn't properly maintained. She's only over thirty years old, so why does she look like a 50-year-old grandma?"

When she heard Yan Wu fearlessly ridicule her, Madam Gu walked up a few steps and wanted to squeeze past Master Gu to give this slut a slap.

However, Old Master Gu was having a hot time with the smoke. How could he bear to be bullied by Madam Gu?

He raised his hand to stop Madam Gu's movements. When she looked over, he subconsciously trembled, but he straightened his body and pushed her out of the door.

"Don't bother me, hurry up and leave."

Madam Gu watched the door close before her eyes. She hated that slut on the bed to death, but at the same time, she also felt a sense of crisis.

All these years, Old Master Gu had been pretending to be a grandson in front of her because when he was young, he had promised to marry her alone. He had never fought back. Now that he had fallen out with that bitch for her, if he didn't meet her true love, then he was tired of being afraid of her and didn't want to continue acting with her!

She didn't believe the former, but the latter made her heart skip a beat.

If that was really the case, she had to make a good plan to prevent that bitch from seizing the opportunity to seize her power within the Gu family.

The Gu family's waters were burning, but Mu Yun was happy to be free.

She had lunch at the restaurant with Ji Ge and Lin Jinyan. Ji Ge had to go back to the government office to take care of government affairs. Lin Jinyan had other things to take care of in the town, so she also wanted to go back to Lin Ji.

Just as she was wondering what benefits the competition would bring, she heard someone call out from behind her:

"Boss Lin, please wait!"
