178: Chapter 178 Let me show you Aunt Park's methods
Piao Xiuying said, hating that her children couldn't live up to her expectations: "Because we are in the Imperial Capital now, not Jianmu City. At the same time, Young Master Chen is protecting us. Most importantly, I want you to see your own position clearly."
"Our only reliance now is Young Master Chen. If one day he finds us displeasing, he won't even need to lift a finger; Jianmu City will take action to erase us to maintain the reputation of the Youth Tournament."
"Then what should we do now?"
"Of course, we must cling tightly to Young Master Chen's thigh. In this world, only he can protect us."
After Piao Xiuying finished speaking, seeing her two daughters not saying anything, her tone softened: "Take advantage of the few days left before the exam. You must seize the time to get close to Young Master Chen. It would be best if you could climb into his bed."
"Otherwise, once the exam is over and we go to the Du Family, we won't have this opportunity."
After she finished speaking, the two daughters had perfunctory expressions, lowered their heads, and gave a grunt, too lazy to even look up.
She knew that in the end, this matter still had to rely on herself.
Back when they were in school, there were a bunch of boys fawning over them. Making them act like Young Misses was fine, but making them fawn over men was really a bit difficult for them.
She only hoped Young Master Chen wouldn't despise her, as she was already fifty years old this year.
"Mom, let's go."
"Wait a moment, I have an appointment with Du Mingxing."
"Why did you make an appointment with him?"
"Since Young Master Chen has already decided to give us to him, naturally, we need to start cultivating a relationship with him now."
"What's the rush? Isn't there still a few days?"
"Do you know when women are most attractive? It's when he can't get them. Once he gets them, we won't be worth anything anymore."
Before long, Du Mingxing's figure appeared in the woods.
The woods were too big, and Piao Xiuying's position was relatively hidden. He looked around in the woods, searching for a long time without finding them.
Just as his patience was about to run out and he was preparing to leave, Piao Xiuying suddenly stood up.
"Is that Young Master Du? It really is Young Master Du. You finally came."
Seeing Piao Xiuying, Du Mingxing's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Although Piao Xiuying was already fifty years old, in Du Mingxing's eyes, she was extremely well-maintained. Her mature figure and charm were precipitated by time, which young girls could not possess.
"Auntie Pu, so you were here. You made me look hard."
Du Mingxing ran over, fawning all over.
Young Master Chen had spoken: whoever among the Thirteen Protectors killed Yun Zhuo, he would give Auntie Pu and the two Cui sisters to them.
Before, at the social gathering, the Thirteen Protectors went to inspect the goods.
Du Mingxing knew that Auntie Pu and the others were also inspecting the goods.
And after inspecting the goods, why did she invite him alone?
Does this even need thinking? It must be that I, Du Mingxing, am the strongest among the Thirteen Protectors. This First Protector should be me, Du Mingxing, not that idiot Shen Zhao.
"Oh? Sister Shuyan and Sister Shuxian are here too."
The two sisters slightly twitched their lips, which counted as a smile, and it was also to give Face to Piao Xiuying, going through the motions.
Then, with great tacit understanding, they turned their heads to the side, no longer paying attention to Du Mingxing.
Piao Xiuying, seeing that her two daughters were so disappointing, had to smooth things over: "Young Master Du, before you came, the two of them kept asking why you hadn't arrived yet."
"Now that you're here, they don't dare to talk to you. They are so grown up, yet so shy. I really don't know what to do in the future."
Du Mingxing chuckled, "Auntie Pu, don't say that. Their shyness makes them even more charming. You don't know, I've seen many twins, but apart from Teacher Su, they are the most similar and beautiful."
When the two sisters heard this, that they had actually been compared and found inferior, they immediately and with great tacit understanding turned back to look at Du Mingxing.
"Who is Teacher Su?"
"Hey, she is Yun Zhuo's War Princess. But they also have another identity: the eldest Young Miss of the Su Family."
"Yun Zhuo's War Princess, the eldest Young Miss of the Su Family?"
"You don't know yet?"
"What should we know?"
"You've been at the school for a month, right? Have you never heard people say that Young Master Chen once declared he would marry into the Su Family for Teacher Su?"
"Marry into the family? Stop talking nonsense here. How could someone like Young Master Chen marry into a family?"
Piao Xiuying and her two daughters all stared at Du Mingxing's Face, their Faces full of confusion.
Du Mingxing smiled smugly, "This is the charm of Teacher Su and her sister. Besides, Su Jingzhou only has these two daughters. Marrying one would be fine, but since Young Master Chen wants to marry both, he has to marry into the family."
"This..."
The two Cui sisters still hadn't figured out what was going on. Someone like Young Master Chen would actually marry into a family for two women?
What on earth is he doing?
And Piao Xiuying, the mother, suddenly realized one thing: why Chen Qi took a fancy to her daughters.
Because in this year's Youth Tournament, they were the only pair of twin sisters.
At the same time, she finally understood why Chen Qi was determined to kill Yun Zhuo. Because the Su sisters were Yun Zhuo's War Princesses. If this War Spirit Master didn't die, Chen Qi would never have a chance.
To put it mildly, this is jealousy; to put it strongly, it is the hatred of stealing a wife.
Thinking about it this way, the reason why she had ended up with her family broken and destroyed was entirely due to The two Su sisters.
They were twins, and her own two daughters were also twins. Since Chen Qi couldn't get them, he used her daughters as substitutes, or perhaps they didn't even count as substitutes.
It was just that when he saw her two daughters, the identity of being twins touched a nerve, making him decide to buy her two daughters.
And he had bought them for a month. Facing three beauties by his side, he only looked but didn't eat. It wasn't because he was a gentleman; it was because he simply didn't fancy them at all.
Sending her and her two daughters to the Du Family was just making use of the trash.
Just as he said before, he spent money, so it had to be worth it. He couldn't let her and her two daughters be ornaments by his side.
Piao Xiuying took a deep breath, gathered her mood, held Du Mingxing's hand, put on a gentle smile, and led him to the bench to sit down.
"Young Master Du, aren't you curious why we asked you to come here?"
The moment Piao Xiuying's fingertips touched Du Mingxing's hand, it was as if an electric current had passed through him. His mind went blank with a buzz, his steps became unsteady, and only the temperature from her palm made him feel dizzy, like stepping on cotton.
He didn't know how many times he had held hands with women, including Wu Wanyi, but why did the feeling of being held by Auntie Pu feel so special?
He stared blankly at Piao Xiuying. The latter, seeing him look dazed, smiled with a motherly gentleness.
"Young Master Du, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Du Mingxing immediately cleared his throat and smiled, "I'm just waiting for Auntie Pu to tell me the answer, aren't I?"
Piao Xiuying glanced at her two daughters, "It's because of them. If Young Master Chen insists on giving us away, they hope to be with you in the future."
"Why?"
"Maybe this is love at first sight. Among the Thirteen Protectors, they took a fancy to you at first glance. What can I do?"
"Then what about you, Auntie Pu?"
"Me?" Piao Xiuying's Face flushed, she slightly lowered her head, her voice becoming softer, "Me, do I have a choice? Of course, wherever my daughters go, I go."
Du Mingxing felt that Piao Xiuying was acting. From the first moment he saw Piao Xiuying, he knew this woman was not simple.
But at this moment, this feeling was really great.
Even if it wasn't real, I would make it real.
"Auntie Pu, why don't you just say what you have to say directly?"
