Chapter 603: Chapter 603, Master of Schemes (4 More Updates)
"No, no, no, Miss Xie, you’ve misunderstood. If big brother is serious, I support him. Big brother will always be our role model among us brothers. Whatever he decides, it’s always right!"
"Including marrying such a ruthless woman?" Xie Zhinuan asked.
"..." Chu Yun’an was choked by the question.
Almost choked on his own saliva, "This, this, actually loving someone is not wrong. Big brother has been doing very well these years, whether before or after the poisoning, he has never spoken harshly about that poisonous woman, giving her whatever she wants, never frowning. Even if it were a stone, having been warmed by close, painstaking care for ten years, it ought to be warm by now. It’s just that the poisonous woman isn’t fortunate. Big brother will eventually meet someone who holds him in her heart. Miss Xie, I ask you to give big brother a chance, not to reject him so hastily!"
"..."
Xie Zhinuan was a bit confused.
Becoming her steward was that honorable?
Unfathomable!
"Alright, we’ll talk about it when the time comes. Take good care of your big brother; his health is slowly improving. Being cheerful is good for his health!"
"Yes, thank you for the advice, Miss Xie!"
Xie Zhinuan waved her hand and got into the carriage under Duobao’s surprised, shocked, and life-questioning gaze.
The silly girl followed behind, and once she was seated, she urged, "Let’s go, back to the residence!"
"..."
Duobao, without making a sound, drove the carriage forward, his mind somewhat distracted and in chaos.
Fortunately, the horse was smart and knew the way home. It also avoided pedestrians on the road and did not travel fast.
When they arrived at the Xie Residence, Xie Zhinuan got off the carriage and took a look at Duobao but said nothing more.
"..."
Duobao handed over the carriage to the doorman and followed with his head down, not knowing what he was pondering.
Chu Residence
Chu Yun’an quickly returned to his room and saw Chu Yunping daydreaming. He pursed his lips and stepped forward to ask, "Big brother, are you serious?"
"..." On hearing this, Chu Yunping nodded, "Yes, I am serious. Once my health is restored, I plan to ask Father to divide the family!"
"Big brother!" Chu Yun’an exclaimed.
What he had said earlier in front of Xie Zhinuan was just to cover up for his brother.
"Yun’an, our family is originally a prestigious family from the capital. It’s just that due to a faux pas in the struggle for inheritance, we were forced to move to this small county. All these years we’ve held back, waiting for an opportunity. Yun’an, isn’t the chance upon us now?"
Chu Yun’an was stunned, "Big brother, are you planning to use Miss Xie?"
"No, she’s my life-saving benefactor. How could I use her? I’m only acting as an intermediary. If I become her chief steward, with her medical skills, there will be countless nobles seeking her help in the future. If I merely hint at it, the Chu Family will reap endless benefits. Do you understand, Yun’an?"
Chu Yun’an shook his head, "Big brother, how is this different from using Miss Xie? Even if you serve her with all your heart, your personal motives mean it is still using her, isn’t it? I don’t understand. Isn’t the way the Chu Family is now fine? Big brother, you weren’t someone calculative by nature. Just because of that poisonous woman, are you becoming ambiguous even about the most basic gratitude?"
Chu Yun’an asked several questions in a row, exhaled deeply, "Big brother, for us, money, status, power, they’re all fleeting, relics of yesterday. What we value more is being a complete family. That you’re getting better now is already a great fortune. For the sake of our parents, you should regain your composure and return to being the Chu Yunping of old, who was content to achieve and retire unnoticed, not someone who’s calculative and exploits even his life-saving benefactor!"
