Jinbao Marries a Wife

When Jin Bao woke up, he found himself in a shaky carriage.oGNcTAwHXxgCOeHHNbYdCRKkyFKShS

As he opened his eyes, Lou Jingyu was sitting beside him, holding a tomato. His mouth and hands were drenched with juice, eating messily. Seeing Jin Bao awake, Lou Jingyu was startled at first, then flashed a sweet smile.qnshVaVJZLjMfnCGyzeFHtrwmGyhwL

“You’re awake.”BhlJFcRxCYzRnSRUuYVznNLxklEawl

Jin Bao blinked, feeling utterly exhausted. He didn’t want to move at all, and with Lou Jingyu here, there was no way to leave, so he decided to just lie there. “Why am I here?”LwnqNospVrpzGKbdQTnxmAZCwiehaS

Lou Jingyu wiped his mouth and hands with the hem of his clothes, as if proud of himself, then scooted closer. “You being alive and lying here is all thanks to me.”fmkcpJJzEQVKIpMdYpMtAMaVLPKDIW

“Hmph, ungrateful. Do you think that without me, you’d be living happily ever after with that psycho Que Siming, like some lovebirds in paradise?”RqLTPzXLzJfmpdvTCCkSqlPQrcHljL

Jin Bao’s eyes darkened, and he pressed his lips together, saying nothing.ocClCtoHUfGobedjuYDgxiGugOMFSD

Lou Jingyu noticed his gloomy expression and felt a surge of satisfaction. He rolled over to lie next to him, shoulder to shoulder, and even scooted closer.DORpfSQBBGczCrmdXCubJAsQFzKBtx

Lou Jingyu, beaming with excitement, said, “I’m taking you back to Ruyi Tower.”LveyVmQioCRiSPltIyOEsxVOiTtDJy

Jin Bao frowned. “Why would I go back to Ruyi Tower with you?”hAUvQaFiuYuhkSGVphdJHSsnfJYqRQ

rZfhYUjciJzJojL

“Because I’ve already arranged it with Yu Mingjing. We can’t let you have any more chances to get near Que Siming. Look at you—you’re broke, stupid, and can barely take care of yourself. I’ll take you back and find you some work, maybe as my attendant or something. We’ve known each other for a while; I can’t just watch you beg on the streets.”TvJfdCjOQMvSxwMSNjTucmrTJfnxVh

“Home? Which home are you going back to?”uqBliCskLAKvxkalMOiWiIrJyKDqCb

“Anywhere but where Que Siming is,” Jin Bao muttered. “I won’t see him again, don’t worry. I’m going back to find my brothers.” No one needed to stop him; he had no intention of ever looking for Que Siming again. He couldn’t bear the shame. He’d spent all this time raising what he thought was a loyal dog, only to find it was a wolf with a bushy tail. Being bitten in the end was his own damn fault for being blind in the first place. Ungrateful bastard—he wasn’t going to die without him. Fine, he’d go make a new life for himself. He never wanted to lay eyes on him again. He was utterly sick of it.LTSFNMLipjxmqXpIkEqyjNpGQaqmJN

Lou Jingyu wasn’t pleased. He propped himself up, glaring down at Jin Bao. “I saved your life, and you can’t even say one nice thing to me? You think you can just walk away whenever you want? Do you think I’m stupid, running a charity here? You want to leave? No way in hell.”YwwQpTqpIYLnuktyDjkJnDSMqTMlLn

BelYYGdPEsYFlWV

Jin Bao sighed. He knew this was how it would turn out. Right now, he didn’t have the energy to argue with Lou Jingyu. His priority was to recover his strength, heal his wounds, and then wait for a chance to escape.KeqWzhNGJrcBgjvmyyEnrAApNBYuSE

With that in mind, he started to focus on channeling his energy for healing, but the moment he tried, he realized something terrifying—his dantian was completely empty.XOIQeDJCRcUHBwqkaVFDqyvrZgWSgy

The shock hit him hard. His eyes widened, and he stared at Lou Jingyu.RWJfVphxFeZqVzMUeaRElfPPMlbnWb

Lou, with a smirk playing at the corner of his mouth, said, “I sealed off your internal energy to prevent you from running away. Behave, and maybe when I’m in a good mood, I’ll restore it.”muWXWecowDRpbXHUriSoXzHmiCIpXj

Furious, Jin Bao slammed his fist into the wooden floor, turning his head away in frustration, closing his eyes, refusing to look at him.AbhnzdUzywDoDncbmEPFbywKLkDqSv

Lou Jingyu, a bit sulky, pouted and muttered indignantly, “Can’t I get a little interest?”SlUFejbKfqJkWKMaUVbkcnJMEEDMCO

If he still couldn’t see what kind of feelings Young Master Lou had for him, he’d be the biggest fool around.IReezdpvpelLoznoZXiKUBHRARtzLM

Inwardly, he scoffed, Men, as soon as it involves that, they’re all filthy, every last one of them.ZRgfIuqvjyNHDpkZjBoyMnqhkwEcGG

Pointing a finger at Lou’s nose, Jinbao warned, “Let me tell you something. I never asked you to save me. Who told you to stick your nose in? Don’t think for a second I’m grateful. Honestly, you’ve screwed me over before, too. If you think you can tie me down for life, you’ve got another thing coming. As soon as I get the chance, I’ll be out of here as far as I can go. Just looking at you pisses me off.”IWHxvFarjWrgCSVTJWYsDwWzYXjKoR

Lou’s expression darkened instantly. He suddenly leaped up, pinning Jinbao underneath him like an enraged little leopard, baring his teeth and searching for a place to bite.dvZazxivYzZIITTthqdFEFPMQEDLLM

Jinbao wasn’t a match for him to begin with, and now, with his inner strength sealed, he couldn’t fight back at all. Being pressed down by this little brat, he was so furious he could spit blood.NmYFNHHnFpckNmtMjwpSRrTFnWEaZM

The two of them glared at each other for a long time, but Lou didn’t make another move. After a while, he got off him, threw something at him, and snapped, “Eat.”OUSvSGGgIBWUkaYxPambMJmZfxclrQ

Jinbao shot him a glare in return and grabbed the dry food inside, stuffing it into his mouth. He didn’t know how long he had been asleep, but he was starving, feeling like he could eat an entire cow.AGIwrIZJaJGJeYhTwZfknDojgnYogT

Half a month later, the two of them finally arrived at Ruyi Tower.WOYiitTlQNQbvSwTzePcIJJssYJwGc

During this time, Jinbao had attempted to escape countless times—three times a day on average—but all ended in failure. Meanwhile, Lou Jingyu’s sexual harassment had escalated. What started as kissing and touching had now evolved into him directly slipping his hand inside Jinbao’s clothes. Jinbao was furious and outspoken about it, but he simply couldn’t win against Lou Jingyu and had no solution. By now, he wasn’t even thinking about escaping anymore. Instead, he was plotting how to castrate Lou Jingyu.JZBFCKfEiRLSNmuYSEeaWIunbkCrMw

As they got closer to the territory of Ruyi Tower, Jinbao started hearing more and more rumors about it.lcskhgrPdnoICNyOIJaeXmfsGtsFJM

TpWYpnOBIAsuYJq

Ruyi Tower was a rather mysterious sect in the martial arts world. It was said that their numbers were few, but even their cleaning maids were top-tier fighters and shouldn’t be underestimated. As the name suggests, Ruyi Tower was a place that made people’s wishes come true. As long as you could pay the price, Ruyi Tower would do anything for you. But the price wasn’t always money.PmtYVXBKexQAUAmrMojaeTQvIWKmit

Ruyi Tower rarely involved itself in disputes between sects, but whenever they did speak, their words carried great weight.VhfXrwYHuVynRLqIMnxDEmbkBCzrzb

The martial arts world was full of speculations about Ruyi Tower. Lou Jingyu dismissed most of the gossip with a sneer, though he did admit one thing to Jinbao with great interest, “They got one thing right: my mother sure could give birth. I have four brothers and two sisters.”vqbJpbWgBuhlFbTyHKqPsUMWgyTvkP

Jinbao, with drooping eyelids, didn’t bother responding to him. He had been tormented enough—always on guard, day and night. If it weren’t for Lou Jingyu still being young, Jinbao would genuinely fear for his own rear. In such circumstances, it was impossible to show him a friendly face.NyAmwHKgfNKEcTHjKQtfaYCAAhiCFv

Along the way, it seemed Lou Jingyu had gotten used to Jinbao’s angry outbursts. At first, he would get mad, but later on, he just took greater advantage of him, thinking that was the only way not to lose out.MLtTWlmwuBRVlzcPUDncSMmHGZMXdb

When they finally arrived at Ruyi Tower, a group of people rushed out as if they had never seen anything so exciting before. Upon hearing that the young master had brought someone back, they swarmed to have a look.YlbrqbERTMErZNIyyBbYNHKnDhJrvB

Feeling completely uncomfortable, Jinbao followed him into the main hall.xttIBngtUqNVYaHYWgDOcOXzLVezLQ

In the center of the hall sat a serious-looking young man, who bore a striking resemblance to Lou Jingyu, sharing about seventy percent of his features. With his legs crossed, he expressionlessly watched the scene. The others seated nearby were clearly Lou Jingyu’s siblings, resembling him quite a bit, and all wore identical expressions of amusement, as if they were waiting for some entertainment.HULIKLVDRgOyrFZmKoTRSmsfCijxoq

The fourth young master, seated next to the third, laughed so hard his almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents. “Big brother, we don’t lack anyone to carry on the family name.

With a wave of his hand, Lou Jingrong sent a gust of force-filled wind straight at Lou Jingyu, slapping him across the face without even touching him. He said coldly, “Ruyi Lou won’t waste a single soldier or resource on an outsider, and it’s certainly not worth going to war with the Que family over him.
