After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 20

“With me giving you so much silver, aren’t you afraid that I’ll take the money and run?” After much hesitation, she finally voiced the question.

Gu Jinchen's gaze locked with hers almost immediately upon her words leaving her mouth, pulling her tightly into his embrace.

“Would you?”

He knew that she had already found where he kept the household registration. The house was so small, and he had not intentionally hidden it away.

If she wanted to find it, she certainly could.

But she had never touched that registration, and her true feelings for him and the children were obvious. So he trusted her.

But...he was still afraid. When you care for someone, you fear.

“I would not.” Almost as soon as his words fell, Luo Ge decisively answered.

She would have to be a fool to run away. A man like this, and such an obedient little one, would be very difficult to find again!

And...she couldn’t bear to leave.

She admitted, she had fallen for this considerate and handsome man.

Hearing these words, Gu Jinchen's smile grew broader. Lowering his head, he pressed a kiss to her lips.

“Then I naturally won’t be afraid either. I trust you.” He didn’t understand why his feelings for her had developed so quickly, so intensely.

At first, he admired her courage, intelligence, and ability to calmly find a way to escape from the dangerous situation of being surrounded by villains.

After that, he was stunned by her beauty. She really was too pretty, with the kind of appearance that made one’s heart stir and ache. She was just exactly to his taste.

Later, he was surprised by her gentle attitude towards the children. That first time Old Lady Wang came, he knew she had already awakened and heard the words from Old Lady Wang’s mouth, aware of the situation of the two little ones. But she didn’t show any distaste towards them at all.

On the contrary, she sympathized with them. She carefully and gently approached them, warming and caring for them in an imperceptible way.

He saw the way she treated the two little ones.

After that, he was amazed by her cooking skills. Her culinary skills were truly excellent. He admitted her dishes had completely won over his stomach.

Later, after becoming more intimate with her and having closer contact, his heart was tied tighter to hers.

He thought this was probably how he had fallen step by step.

Hearing his words, Luo Ge smiled and gently kissed back.

“Thank you.” For trusting me.

The sudden kiss caught Gu Jinchen by surprise, his pupils contracting slightly.

His wife’s rare initiative was truly something to be cherished!

Not giving her a chance to escape, Gu Jinchen immediately wrapped his arm around her waist, leaning his head on her shoulder, his voice low and hoarse, full of desire.

“My wife, shall we have a little one of our own?”

“Hmm...Mmph!” He asked the question but didn’t give her a chance to answer at all. The moment she opened her mouth, he kissed her lips.

The light kiss deepened, pulling her into intoxication, leaving her clinging weakly to him...

That night was another sleepless one, the deep colors of shyness even more vivid than their wedding night...

It was only when the morning bell rang that Luo Ge finally fell into deep slumber.

Gu Jinchen, satiated, was brimming with energy. He took the two little ones who had risen early to practice martial arts and ran several laps around the village, still not showing any fatigue.

...

Upon waking again, Luo Ge only felt soreness throughout her body. She rubbed her aching waist and checked on the situation in her space with her mind.

After all this time verifying it, Luo Ge was certain that living things could not replenish themselves in the space.

But because the passage of time in the space was different than the outside world, the reproduction rate of living things was much faster.

After graduating from high school, she didn’t have money to continue studying, so she gave up and started a street stall business instead.

She did business at the street stall for over three years before saving up enough to start a farm. Right before she transmigrated, the farm and fruit tree forest had just been set up for half a year.

The chicks and ducklings at the farm had been raised for half a year and were just starting to lay eggs. The fruit tree forest had also just been planted.

Even her little farmhouse had just been fixed up. Everything was just at the beginning stages.

But now, after coming to the Gu family and activating her space for half a month, with the space time flowing at a 1:4 ratio compared to the outside world, over a month had already passed in her space.

The chickens and ducks had grown quite a bit. Based on the 1:4 ratio, they should be able to start brooding in another two months.

By then, the farm would probably need to expand considerably. The fruit tree forest should also start bearing fruit around then.

It seemed that in the next two months, she needed to take advantage of the eggs to earn more money. That way, when the time came, having more savings would make doing business with the chickens, ducks, and fruit much easier.

The money Gu Jinchen gave her, along with what she earned selling eggs, she had all put into her space.

Although it was not a small sum and should be enough to start up a business, there was no harm in having more money right? If she could earn more, she naturally wanted to earn more.

“Wife, you’re awake?” Just as she was lost in thought, Gu Jinchen walked in. Seeing her sitting up in bed with slightly disheveled hair looking blankly cute, he couldn’t help reaching out to pull her into his embrace.

His big hand gently massaged her lower back. “Does it hurt a lot?” A hot bath should make her feel much better.

Luo Ge tilted her head to look at him, lazily resting her head on his shoulder.

“It hurts.” Her voice was soft, as if she was whining.

She felt sore all over. This guy was too much of a beast, and her petite body had trouble keeping up.

Women who acted coquettishly were fortunate, she believed this saying. Plus, acting a little coy with her own man now and then was harmless.

Her dependent action caused Gu Jinchen's ears to redden slightly, softening his heart and making him feel somewhat distressed.

“I just boiled water. I’ll bring some in for you to soak in?”

“Okay.”
