Meng Weiwei did not expect Wu Hao to suddenly appear there. She was afraid that Wu Hao would ruin her plans, so she quickly turned her head. Before she could think of a way, Bai Wutong had already said to Wu Hao, “She has already sold her body and is my maidservant.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Hao’s expression changed drastically.
He looked at Meng Weiwei in disbelief. “Weiwei?”
He borrowed a total of 60 taels from Sheng Huaixuan to redeem Meng Weiwei. He did not believe that Meng Weiwei would take the initiative to sell herself as a slave.
Meng Weiwei stole a glance at Bai Wutong hatefully, then quickly lowered her eyes to express her loyalty. “Yes, I’m already Madam Bai’s maidservant. Don’t come looking for me in the future.”
Wu Hao felt as if his heart was being squeezed tightly. He asked sadly, “Why? Did they force you?”
Chu Tianbao’s expression suddenly changed. He raised his hand and waved. Instantly, Wu Hao was knocked down by a powerful internal force.
Wu Hao held his aching chest and became even more determined. They must have threatened Meng Weiwei. Otherwise, how could the n.o.ble Meng Weiwei willingly become a servant?
Chu Tianbao raised his hand gently and sent Wu Hao flying. His cold gaze was dignified without being angry. He seemed even more arrogant than the previous Emperor of the Yan Kingdom.
Wu Hao, who was in a sorry state, could not even compare to such a handsome and powerful man.
Meng Weiwei’s heart was pounding. She was even more certain that her decision was not wrong.
Meng Weiwei stole a glance at Chu Tianbao and displayed the most beautiful curve of her face. She said pitifully, “No, Madam Bai didn’t force me.”
The more she said this and acted pitiful, the easier it was for Wu Hao to believe that Bai Wutong had forced her.
Like a stupid dog who had been sold and was helping others count their money, he roared at Bai Wutong, “I want to redeem Weiwei!”
Meng Weiwei was not fl.u.s.tered at all when she heard that he wanted to redeem her. Along the way, Wu Hao had sold everything he could, and Wu Ji had not provided any support. He definitely could not take out any money to redeem her.
“I saw that she was really pitiful for selling herself to save her mother, so I bought her. Who are you to her? Why are you redeeming her?’
Wu Hao looked at Meng Weiwei in surprise, looking confused as to why she wanted to save her mother. He had gone to buy herbs for Shen Yueqin the day before and she had clearly recovered.
However, he was unwilling to think deeply. Before Meng Weiwei could stop him, he hurriedly said, “I’m her fiancé. As long as Madam is willing to let me redeem Weiwei, I’ll never forget your kindness!”
Looking at Meng Weiwei’s pale face, the corners of Bai Wutong’s mouth curled up. “The two of you are in love, and I’m unwilling to be such an evil person. I only spent ten taels of silver to buy her. You can take her away for ten taels of silver.”
Wu Hao was overjoyed and felt guilty for misunderstood Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao just now. He hurriedly said gratefully, “Thank you, Madam Bai. Thank you, Madam Bai.” He then said, “Madam Bai, can I write an IOU first? I’ll definitely repay it. My father has a good relationship with Old Master Sheng. I definitely won’t lie to you.’
Bai Wutong shook her head in her mind. This idiot. “Okay, then write it.” Qingfeng quickly handed him a pen and paper.
Meng Weiwei bit her lip slightly, and her face turned pale. The moment Wu Hao wrote the IOU, she stopped him. “If Madam Bai buys me, my parents will have money to safely reach the Southern Frontier. She has done me a great favor. I won’t leave! Go back!’
Meng Weiwei was a eloquent person. In just two or three sentences, she had raised herself to the moral high ground. It was because Wu Hao did not take good care of her entire family that she was willing to sell herself as a slave.
Wu Hao was indeed a fool. With a pained and guilty expression, he promised again, “Weiwei, when we reach the Southern Frontier, I will definitely work hard and definitely give you a good life.”
Meng Weiwei had listened to this the whole time and her ears were about to form calluses. She was still eating the dry food distributed by the government every day.
She did not believe Wu Hao’s promise at all. She gritted her teeth and said, “I’ve made up my mind. I must repay Madam Bails kindness! ”
Every word she said was as though she was an old servant who had been loyal to Bai Wutong for many years. Everyone would be so touched if they heard her.
Bai Wutong’s smile deepened, and her gaze landed on her pitiful little face. “I don’t need you to repay my kindness. Your fiancé is sincere to you. Don’t let him down.” She looked at Wu Hao. “Write the IOU and bring her back. I don’t lack people serving me.”
Since Bai Wutong had said so, Wu Hao no longer hesitated and picked up his brush again.
Meng Weiwei widened her eyes in panic. She had finally thought of this idea to get close to Chu Tianbao, so how could she let Wu Hao ruin it like this?
She rushed forward and s.n.a.t.c.hed the pen from Wu Hao’s hand. She cried and said loudly, ‘You can’t give me happiness at all, and your father doesn’t agree to let me be part of the family. I don’t want to owe you again and again. Let’s end it here.” After saying that, she specially glanced at Chu Tianbao, as if telling him that she really had nothing to do with Wu Hao and that he shouldn’t misunderstand.
Looking at the affectionate scene in front of her where she was forced to break up with her lover, Bai Wutong chuckled. She even wanted to present Meng Weiwei an Oscars award.
Wu Hao did not expect him to make Meng Weiwei feel so aggrieved. He felt extremely uncomfortable.
He opened his mouth and met Meng Weiwei ‘s determined gaze. He felt even more like a good-for-nothing and useless.
Just as Wu Hao despised himself and was about to let Meng Weiwei pursue the life she wanted, Bai Wutong suddenly spoke again.
“I’ve been conquered by the feelings between both og you. Qingfeng, lend them 100 taels of silver and return the indenture to her. These 100 taels of silver are enough for you to safely reach the Southern Frontier and settle down.”
“If your father doesn’t agree to this marriage, I’ll let Brother Sheng persuade him.”
“I’ll also be happy to see you two get married. Live a good life. I hope you can be an everlasting couple in this life!”
Wu Hao was suddenly hit by free money. He grinned happily. “Thank you, Madam Bai! I’ll definitely return the money to you as soon as possible in the future.”
Meng Weiwei was dumbfounded by her actions.
She knew that Bai Wutong was stupid, but she did not expect her to be so stupid. She gave money to others for nothing and fulfilled the so-called love.
Bulls.h.i.t everlasting couple! She was not willing!
It was only 100 taels. 100 taels was not enough for her to buy a piece of jewelry!
She did not want to sell herself to an idiot like Wu Hao!
Meng Weiwei hurriedly objected. “No! I’ve already sold myself. I can’t leave Madam Bai anymore!”
As soon as these words were spoken, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over Wu Hao’s heart.
Bai Wutong had already done so much, but Meng Weiwei still refused to leave.
When he met her evasive gaze and thought of Little Cat’s words and her affectionate gaze on Chu Tianbao, Wu Hao’s heart ached.. How could he not understand?
