Xie Pinggang had a sincere look on his face. He was afraid that Zhou Weizong would feel that his family had mistreated Master Yu.

Who would have thought that he would be able to meet an acquaintance’s relative just by looking for a random martial arts instructor?!

Zhou Weizong covered his chest when he heard that, he could not accept it. “D-Don’t say that… My cousin doesn’t want to marry a wife! It won’t work no matter what you say. He’s all alone. How can he stay in your house? You’d better find another martial arts instructor. My cousin wants to follow me home!”

Zhou Weizong was very anxious.

He knew what kind of person Xie Pinggang was. He valued loyalty and liked martial arts weapons. For the sake of that big weapon at the academy, he was reading military books!

If he really took a fancy to his cousin, he would have to take her back by force!

Zhou Weizong’s eyes were filled with begging. He looked very pitiful.

Xie Pinggang could not understand. “This is your cousin. He’s not a monkey in a cage, and he’s not a child. Why do you need to care about where he goes? Now that this person has come to my house, he’s my man. If you want him to leave, don’t even think about it unless you have 30,000 to 50,000 taels of silver!”

“Are you still being unreasonable?!” Zhou Weizong was furious. “My cousin is only here to be a martial arts instructor. He didn’t sign a contract to sell his body! Even if he did, isn’t he allowed to redeem himself?!”

“Heh.” Xie Pinggang got someone to serve Zhou Weizong a cup of tea. “Does the martial arts instructor from your family only work for a few months?”

Zhou Weizong was stifled.

Being an instructor was quite special, especially for a rich family like theirs. If they were to choose an instructor, the instructor would have to teach for at least three to five years.

Especially an instructor who learned martial arts, which was even more important!

As every martial art was different, if the instructor taught too many things, the children in the family who learned would show flaws in their practice.

It was better to be proficient than to learn a hundred things.

“Brother Xie, can’t you… be flexible given our friendship? My cousin’s life is really hard. I’ll bring him back to the Zhou family to be properly educated. It’ll be easier for him to rise up in the future, right?”

“Don’t say that. It’s impossible to get on good terms with him now. We have to be reasonable.” Xie Pinggang straightened his body. “Just now, you said that with you around, he definitely won’t be sent back to Dong’an. What do you mean by that?”

Zhou Weizong suddenly felt that Xie Pinggang was a cunning bear!

“If I’m not wrong, your elders seem to be preparing to send him away? He doesn’t have any reliable relatives in Dong’an. Sending him there is just letting him be slaughtered, isn’t it?” Xie Pinggang was going straight to the point.

Zhou Weizong was helpless. “I hardly listen to them these years. I will naturally protect my cousin and won’t send him away!” Zhou Weizong quickly expressed his stance.

After saying that, he felt that his mouth was dry and uncomfortable. He hurriedly gulped down a cup of tea, and it tasted a little bitter.

“Brother Zhou, if we’re talking about a business deal, then you have to show some sincerity in our negotiation. Can you… watch over your cousin at all times? Or can you make your parents and family listen to you? If they don’t like your cousin, you can’t stop them, right? If that’s the case, then don’t say things that won’t matter!” Xie Pinggang grinned.

He wanted to take Yu Xian away from him? No way.

Hearing Xie Pinggang’s words, Yu Xian thought it made sense.

The Zhou family had high gates and large, deep courtyards. If she were to go, she would have to wear female clothes and stay in the courtyard obediently, waiting for their arrangements.

By then, if the Zhou family wanted to send her away, she would not be able to escape even if she wanted to!

Although her cousin had some say, he was only a junior after all. When the Zhou family received the letter from her family in Dong’an, he did not have the right to protect her..
