Chapter 81: The eldest son of the lineage, Jiarong
She stood up, gathered her sleeves and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

When everyone saw her walking out without saying a word, they hurried to follow her. The way she followed closely looked like a "child" who couldn't leave her parents.

She paused, turned her head and glanced at them, smiling neither lightly nor heavily.

They stopped immediately, but looked back at her loyally and firmly, determined to stand by her side.

This damn place was so scary that they couldn't feel at ease for a moment.

"There should be a map of Longdong in Yingtian Academy," she said.

Gu Yuejiarong's comprehension ability was always perfect. He was the first to react and said, "Indeed, it is in the library in the east field. The road is a bit roundabout. I will take you there."

This reason is legitimate.

Xu Shanshan responded: "Yes."

"I'll go too." Xu Shanshan looked eager, but she couldn't find a reason, so she could only mumble, "One more person won't be a problem anyway."

Mo Han whispered, "I'll go too."

Wei Qiyao raised his hands and said arrogantly: "If they all go, then I have to go too."

Xu Shanshan glanced at the dying Lei Feng, then looked at the darkness outside, and said, "I can only take one person with me to protect you. All of you should leave this room. If the tongue-killing evil spirit starts to attack, you will have to endure it on your own."

Xu Shanshan and Wei Qiyao immediately looked at her with resentment on their faces: "..." She had just agreed to let Gu Yuejiarong accompany her, and this sentence was clearly meant to "dissuade" them from following.

Mo Han was very curious about Gu Yue Jiarong and kept looking at her gloomily.

After the two left, Wei Qiyao's temper flared up. Without Xu Shanshan to calm him down, he kicked over the table, and the utensils and teaware on it fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Seeing his angry and dissatisfied face, Xu Shanshan quickly moved aside.

Mo Han was just a scholar, and was captured and threatened by him and his minions when he first entered the island. If Xu Shanshan had not been there at the time, he would have been either dead or injured.

Therefore, Mo Han felt disgusted with Wei Qiyao and tried to avoid him.

"If you want to follow, just follow him. Why are you losing your temper in front of us... But who is that person?" Xu Shanshan's face turned cold as she left Xu Shanshan.

Wei Qiyao glared at her: "You are her sister. Didn't she tell you that the man is also her fiancé?"

Xu Shanshan was stunned: "She...her fiancé?!"

Yes, in addition to Wei Canghao, she has four others... It turns out that she is not joking and has really married five men!

"Gu Yuejun is Miss Xu's fiancé?" Mo Han also looked surprised.

"Do you know him? What Gu Yuejun?" Xu Shanshan hurriedly asked Mo Han for information.

Mo Han took a deep breath, his expression dazed. After a long while, he slowly said, "The Guyue family is a powerful force in the south, with a long family tradition. The famous scholars in Jiuzhou are either from the private schools run by the Guyue family or from the academies jointly run with the government. The Bailuzhou Academy founded by Guyue's ancestor is a literary holy land that college students from all over Jingguo flock to."

"Even many children of aristocratic families would pay a fortune to get the Gu Yue family's guidance on their academic path. However, the Gu Yue family, from the ancestors to the children and grandchildren, all live a simple life. All their glory is devoted to academic study, and they regard money as dirt."

It sounds like the Guyue family is not simple either.

"Then which branch of the Guyue family does this Guyue Jun belong to?"

Generally, in such a large family, in addition to the direct line, there are also small families composed of paternal direct blood relatives and paternal collateral blood relatives. Mo Han looked at her with an incomprehensible solemnity in his eyes: "The eldest son of the direct line."

Xu Shanshan took a breath.

"The eldest son?"

I thought that Wei Canghao, the patriarch of the Wei family, was already surprising, but I didn't expect that even the eldest son of the famous Guyue family was Xu Shanshan's fiancé... one of them. They all had such extraordinary identities, it was not excessive for each of them to marry a wife from a wealthy family, so why were they willing to have five men serve one woman?

I can't figure it out. I don't understand.

It's not that Xu Shanshan thinks Xu Shanshan is unworthy, it's just...isn't this too crazy? Unheard of, never seen before.

Mo Han couldn't quite understand it either, so he could only say, "Perhaps, Miss Xu is not an ordinary person."

Xu Shanshan and Xu Shanshan grew up together. To be honest, before the current Xu Shanshan went to Heilongjiang Island, in Xu Shanshan's eyes, "Xu Shanshan" was a selfish, stupid and greedy woman.

But after just two years of not seeing her, she reappeared. Not to mention a drastic change, she was completely reborn. Except for her appearance, everything about her was different.

But so what?
Xu Shanshan didn’t care who this “Xu Shanshan” was. She only remembered the great kindness the other party had shown her.

The bodies of her parents abandoned in a mass grave were the source of hatred and pain that tore her heart apart every night. She dared not think about it, nor did she dare to miss it.

Just because Xu Shanshan dared to use the name of the Xu family to give her parents a grand funeral, Xu Shanshan will remember her kindness for the rest of her life.

The lives of their siblings were also saved by Xu Shanshan. As long as Xu Shanshan is not a heartless person, Xu Shanshan will never betray Xu Shanshan. She will regard Xu Shanshan as her second sister.

"That's right." Xu Shanshan also figured it out. She smiled and said, "Although it's different from ordinary marriages, it's fine as long as they are happy."

Wei Qiyao knew some inside information, but there was no need for him to tell these two people. He felt suffocated, so he tugged at his clothes and said, "Whether this marriage can be successful is another matter," and then he left like a gust of wind.

Xu Shanshan was also a person who had experienced the entanglement between men and women. How could she not understand that Wei Qiyao had other thoughts about her future sister-in-law?

"Mo Han, you must not be as foolish as Wei Qiyao. My second sister is not the kind of person who indulges in love. If she is with someone who has nothing to do with her, her love will be wasted."

Mo Han frowned and said in a deep voice, "Why are you telling me all this? I just admire Miss Xu."

Xu Shanshan did not comment: "It's just a reminder. If I say it wrong, you can just treat me as meddling in other people's business and talking nonsense."

Xu Shanshan was still pregnant and needed plenty of sleep. She couldn't help yawning, her eyelids drooped, and she picked a soft couch to lie down on, planning to take a rest before Xu Shanshan came back.

Mo Han glanced at her, then bent down and quietly picked up the overturned table and chairs, then squatted down and slowly picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground. He pinched a piece of the fragment and pressed hard with his fingertips until blood oozed out.

"I just admire her..."

-

Gu Yuejiarong and Xu Shanshan walked quietly. Before, one of them didn't know his identity, while the other knew it but kept it secret. They got along harmoniously and talked easily.

But once he regained that embarrassing identity, Gu Yuejiarong became cautious and speculative, while Xu Shanshan remained the same and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Sir, we're about to hit a tree."

This reminder brought Gu Yuejiarong back to his senses instantly. When he looked up, he found himself walking along the wall. It was dark and he almost bumped into the landscape tree in front of him.

"What are you thinking about, sir? Why are you so absorbed in your thoughts?"
