619: Hot Commodity

Hot Commodity

What Ms. Lu said at that moment was indeed true. If she could really reconcile with Xie Niushan, she would definitely guarantee that she would never act recklessly again!2

She would take good care of the money for Xie Niushan. She would also take good care of the children. She would definitely not provoke Xie Qiao again.

Although she still felt sorry for her daughter, she understood that Yue'er was heartless. In the future, if she were to become old and sick, Yue'er would definitely not take care of her. That daughter would have been pampered for nothing!

Xie Qiao curled up on the chair and said nothing.

She never expected that her father, who was already so old, would still be a hot commodity.

She looked at him with her watery eyes and took a sip of her tea.

When Xie Niushan heard Ms. Lu's words, immediately, the expression of disdain filled his entire face. "Don't say such disgusting and useless words to me! You've taken all of my family's wealth. Now that I have finally saved up some, you want to spend it again? That's absolutely impossible!" 

Ms. Lu's heart ached. "I really admit my fault... But, how is this little devil better than me?! She's also here for the wealth!" 

That girl was kneeling on the ground at that moment.

"It was Master who saved me from that fire pit. I'm willing to serve Master for the rest of my life. I don't ask for anything. I'm willing to be your servant." The girl's voice was soft, and she looked more pleasant.

Unlike Ms. Lu, who was aggressive at this moment.

However, Xie Niushan was not too happy either. "What do you mean? We agreed before that you're going to work, and now you're thinking of something else?!" 

"I am truly grateful to Master," the girl said again.

Xie Niushan met Xie Qiao's half-smiling gaze and felt a little embarrassed.

It was terrible for his daughter to see such a messy scene.

"Alright, alright. Both of you, get out of here!" Xie Niushan was extremely frustrated. "You make it sound like I'm in need of a woman!" 

Ms. Lu heaved a sigh of relief.

However, at the same time, she thought she had been too impulsive…

Did she not understand Xie Niushan? Once he toughened up, he was a person who was even colder than a knife.

Since they had already divorced, it was even more impossible for her to return. Yet, she was still having that beautiful dream!

Now that she was rejected, her heart turned cold and she gave up.

She stood up and said her goodbyes in a proper manner, "I-I'm leaving..." 

Some time ago, a matchmaker who lived nearby found her. She said that there was a man who had lost his wife. He thought that she was not bad and wanted to marry her to be his partner.

That family was not considered wealthy. They also had two sons and a daughter. She was afraid that she would have to work hard after marrying him, so she disagreed.

However, now, considering her future, she was afraid that she could no longer choose.

Xie Niushan did not try to persuade her to stay. He even said, "In the future, if you have nothing to do, don't come over. Otherwise, the people out there will gossip! They will think that I cannot make up my mind!" 

Ms. Lu's eyes were red. "Earlier, someone wanted to marry me... When I go back, I will probably agree to it..." 

"There's such a good deal? Look at you, you're not young anymore. It's not bad for you to get married again. For the sake of our previous relationship, I'll ask the steward to send you a gift!" Xie Niushan was quite generous.

Seeing that Xie Niushan really did not care about her, Ms. Lu gave up completely and turned around to leave.

She and this family would never be the same as before.

Xie Qiao did not intend to stop Xie Niushan from sending a gift. After all, Ms. Lu was married to her father, so there was no need for them to fight to the death.

Ms. Lu had left, but the girl in front of her was still there.

She even kneeled a few steps toward Xie Niushan. "Master, don't chase me away. I really don't know where I will go after I leave. If my father finds out, he will definitely sell me again. Rather than that, I might as well stay by Master's side. Only Master can make me feel at ease..."
