The True Young Miss Is A Spoiled Boss

Chapter 287: You Should Have Been Dead Once

Ou Qi wanted to say something, but Xing Jiuan spoke before she could.

“OK,” she said.

“Jiuan.” Ou Qi was a little unhappy.

Xing Jiuan patted her shoulder comfortingly.

Ou Qi stopped talking.

Mu Qing did not say anything else. If Xing Jiuan said yes, he would not say no.

Therefore, when the four of them came out and went back, it became five people.

Fortunately, there was a seat in the car. Otherwise, he probably would not have gotten what he wanted.

On the way, the old man rarely spoke.

He sat upright. His clothes were clean and tidy. Although he had washed them many times and they were a little old, they were still so clean that they seemed spotless. As he sat there, he looked like an otherworldly expert.

However, because of what he had said earlier, none of them had a good impression of him. Even Xing Jiuan, who was the only one who did not treat him coldly, only sat there in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking.

The man did not seem to feel awkward, and continued to sit upright. The pocket in his hand seemed to have been stitched up many times and there were many patches. He took out a book without a cover and looked at it seriously.

When they arrived, the things they had bought at the mall and the food at the farm happened to arrive.

Lu Mingxi brought them to put their things away while the other four walked together.

The old man did not deliberately stay close to them. He followed behind slowly and entered the door together.

Xing Jiuan brought him to a guest room on the first floor.

“The things here have just been changed. They’re very clean. You can stay here for now.”

After saying that, Xing Jiuan wanted to leave when she suddenly heard the elder’s low voice.

“Actually, you know it, right?”

Xing Jiuan stopped and looked at the elder.

“You should know what I mean.” The old man smiled. He looked very kind and gave people a very friendly feeling.

Xing Jiuan remained silent.

“You should have died once.”

The elder did not mind Xing Jiuan’s silence and continued to speak.

However, neither of them knew that this room was a little close to the kitchen.

Mu Qing happened to be in the kitchen.

Mu Qing’s five senses were very sensitive, especially his hearing and vision.

The elder had lowered his voice, but Mu Qing could vaguely hear him.

He stood there in shock, the words echoing in his mind.

You should have died once!

You should have…

He did not make a sound and focused all his attention on what they were saying.

He disdained eavesdropping, but this matter…

Mu Qing frowned, but there was no sound.

He still did not move.

After a while, he suddenly heard Xing Jiuan laugh softly. She seemed to not care at all as her voice was light.

“So what?”

Mu Qing’s mind instantly went blank.

It was as if all the sounds from the outside world had disappeared. In his mind, there was only the echo of Xing Jiuan’s voice and her answer to that question.

So what?

Why didn’t she retort?

Why did she say that?

Was this true?

“It’s as I said, right?” The old man did not seem surprised by Xing Jiuan’s answer. Instead, he spoke in a tone that suggested he was stating a fact.

Xing Jiuan smiled. “What does that have to do with you?”

The elder did not mind Xing Jiuan’s words. He said again, “This time, you’ve changed your trajectory.”

“But more things have happened that you don’t understand.”
