My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Chapter 245: Stop eating! Let’s go!

In the backyard of the palace

Su Er held the account book in her hand and looked up at Chu Wan who was standing on one leg from time to time. Feng Ming, who was sitting in the pavilion beside her, kept breathing heavily. When he saw the anger in Chu Wan's eyes, he persuaded her, "Girl, I know you have complaints in your heart, but I don't mean to embarrass you. You will understand when you please the prince."

Chu Wan's cheeks were dripping with sweat, and her legs were trembling slightly from exhaustion. She was about to explode with anger, but after hearing this, she had to grit her teeth and hold on.

Zhao Jinghua did not come forward at this time, but stood at a distance and sent a message to Suer, "Well done."

After hearing this, Su Er looked at Chu Wan with a smile on her face and said, "Miss, let's stop here today."

As soon as Chu Wan heard this, she squatted on the ground in exhaustion.

Seeing this, Su'er walked to Feng Ming's side, looked at Feng Ming who was about to fall asleep, chuckled, and whispered in her ear, "Feng Ming's mother, the uncle is back." As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Ming jumped up.

Zhao Jinghua then walked slowly to Chu Wan. He bent down and stretched out his left hand in front of Chu Wan, pretending to be confused and asking, "What are you doing here in the hot sun?" Chu Wan immediately raised her head as soon as he finished speaking, and then with shining eyes, she placed her left hand on Zhao Jinghua's hand, "You're back."

Zhao Jinghua raised his eyebrows slightly and pulled Chu Wan up with a little force. Then he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Chu Wan's forehead. Chu Wan felt Zhao Jinghua's action with surprise and flattery in her eyes.

Seeing Zhao Jinghua speak, she had expected Zhao Jinghua's tone to be caring, but she didn't expect Zhao Jinghua's tone to be very calm, but it sounded like a blame. "What are you doing here? Why are you sweating all over?"

Chu Wan felt lost instantly after hearing these words. She bit her lower lip tightly but only for a moment before she mustered up the courage to speak, "The princess said that you like to watch me dance, so she invited Sister Su'er to teach me. I wonder if you can stay here tonight. I want to show you the new dance I learned."

Zhao Jinghua heard this and whispered in Chu Wan's ear, "Okay." The dancer was immediately immersed in joy, so she didn't notice the undisguised calculation in Zhao Jinghua's eyes, and the secret guard who left quickly not far away.

At this time, Feng Ming had a handful of melon seeds in her hand. While eating the seeds, she complained to Su'er through voice transmission, "Su'er, did you hear what she said?" At this point, Feng Ming spat the melon seed shells on the ground and spoke again, "It seems like she is seducing our son-in-law, but in fact she is complaining to him. Tsk tsk tsk, this method is too low-level."

Su Er grabbed a dozen melon seeds from Feng Ming's hand and ate them while nodding, "Indeed."

At this time, Chu Wan bit her lower lip slightly and said with a wronged look, "My legs are shaking now. Can you talk to the princess and ask me to practice for a few less hours?"

At the same time, Wan Sutong, her parents, and her aunt and uncle were having a happy meal. When she picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth to chew, she suddenly remembered that she had to go to Qinggu Sect tomorrow, and she had not set out yet, and she forgot to ask where Qinggu Sect was! Thinking of this, Wan Sutong swallowed the meat in her mouth and smiled awkwardly, "Aunt, uncle, do you know where Qinggu Sect is? Can you get there before tomorrow?"

After hearing this, Wan Yanzhong looked at Wan Sutong with a puzzled look on his face. "Nannan, even if you travel a thousand miles a day, it's probably too late. Qinggu Sect is in Beisheng City, on the border of Zhao State and Liang State. With a cultivator's speed, it's just right to go there the day before yesterday."

Luo Lin looked at Wan Sutong in surprise and said, "Sister, you should have left the day before yesterday."

Wan Sutong picked up a piece of fish with a worried look on her face. "What should I do?" She put it in her mouth and chewed it.

At this time, 0533, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke up, "Host, go to your master's courtyard quickly. Your senior brother is there. He will also go to Qinggu Sect. It's not too late for you to ask him to take you there in a carriage! Your master is at the border of Beisheng City!"

Wan Sutong took a bite of rice and looked at 0533 with doubt in his eyes. "That means you don't know where Qinggu Sect is either!"

0533 nodded repeatedly with a helpless tone, "This system doesn't even know that Qinggu Sect is in Beisheng City. I don't know why. This system can't lock the location of the big sect. Maybe it's because the sect is protected by a large formation." At this point, 0533 saw Wan Sutong still eating heartlessly and hurriedly urged, "Stop eating! Go!"

Wan Sutong reluctantly put down her chopsticks, pursed her lips and sighed, "Okay," then looked at Su Qinghui and said, "Mother, remember to tell my husband that I'm going to Qinggu Sect." When she left, she took away a glutinous rice ball stuffed with red bean paste, which made everyone at the table laugh.

Zhao Jinghua was very upset at this moment. On one side was Chu Wan, who was telling him how wronged she was, and on the other side was Feng Ming, who seemed to be chatting but was actually warning him about Chu Wan's thoughts. If it were any other day, he would just pretend he didn't hear and respond to Chu Wan in a few words, but for some reason he was inexplicably upset at this moment. He even had the urge to throw away everything he had done and then charge into the palace in one fell swoop. Thinking of this, Zhao Jinghua couldn't help but chuckle.

However, Zhao Jinghua's laughter was not gentle, but rather eerie. Therefore, the three of them stopped what they were doing at the same time after hearing Zhao Jinghua's laughter. Feng Ming and Su'er's hands holding the melon seeds froze at their mouths, and they both thought to themselves, "It's over."

Chu Wan's hand, which was about to hold Zhao Jinghua's sleeve, froze in place. She then looked up at Zhao Jinghua with a little fear.

Zhao Jinghua raised his hand and lifted her chin through the handkerchief, then lowered his head slightly and looked down at Chu Wan. At this moment, his eyes were filled with warnings and his tone was as cold as frost. "Do your job well, and don't take advantage of the fact that I favor you and become ignorant of the world."

Chu Wan was frightened by Zhao Jinghua's volatile look and broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing Zhao Jinghua's eyes gradually showing murderous intent, she had no choice but to kneel down and beg for mercy. "I know I was wrong. I hope the Regent will calm down. I will never dare to do it again!"

Zhao Jinghua sighed, calmed himself, bent down and helped the dancer up. "Go back and rest. I will go to your room after I finish my official business."

Chu Wan nodded repeatedly and then knelt down to salute, "Yes, I'll take my leave." After saying that, she didn't dare to stay for a moment and left in a hurry.

After Chu Wan left, Zhao Jinghua immediately threw the handkerchief on the ground. The handkerchief caught fire instantly when it landed on the ground, and was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Feng Ming poured all the melon seeds in his hand into Su'er's hand and then stepped forward carefully to ask, "What's wrong? With your temper, you shouldn't talk to her like that?"

Zhao Jinghua lowered his eyes and rubbed his brows with his hands after hearing this, then sighed, "I don't know why I suddenly felt upset just now. Maybe it's because the smell of rouge on her body disgusts me."

Feng Ming scratched his head in confusion. "With your personality, you shouldn't be upset, right? Could something have happened to Su Tong?"

Zhao Jinghua suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing this, then transformed into a plum blossom and disappeared in front of the two of them.

0610 At this time, he suddenly appeared beside Feng Ming and said helplessly, "Host, you scared him so much that he disappeared in an instant."
