Chapter 1623: Chapter 1623: An Jiuyue Tells Them to Stay
He thought that since he had spoken, Qian Jiyun wouldn’t refuse to give him face, yet the man acted as if he had heard nothing. His steps didn’t even falter for a moment, and he simply walked away.
“Brother Zheng…”
Zi Mo was infuriated as well. This man was truly heartless.
They had spoken to him so politely, and he didn’t even bother to acknowledge them, just walked away?
Brother Zheng waved his hand at Zi Mo and took a deep breath.
Hadn’t they anticipated this outcome? They were fooled, and it wasn’t the fault of the people on this boat. They were the ones who had been foolish.
But now, the money they had on them was only enough for food. If they were to spend money on renting another boat, it certainly wouldn’t be enough.
This situation was quite troublesome.
…
Qian Jiyun, holding An Jiuyue in his arms, came to the largest cabin and placed her on the bed.
An Jiuyue yawned elegantly, her beautiful eyes half-closed, looking hazily at the man who was covering her with a blanket.
“Do you know them?”
“I bought the Sky Phoenix Grass from them,” Qian Jiyun said softly, running his hand gently over her face.
Upon hearing this, even though An Jiuyue was very sleepy, she couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. What a coincidence, it seemed they were destined to go to the Zhedu Sea Area together, right?
“Let them stay,” she said and then turned over, finding a comfortable position and falling into a deep sleep.
Qian Jiyun looked at the back of her head, chuckled softly, and, having to heed her words, stepped outside to give the order. Since An Jiuyue had asked for them to stay, they should stay.
“What are you doing?”
As he stepped out, Zhan Beiye also emerged from his own cabin.
He was planning to check on Xiang Qiyan, who was still unconscious. Even though the man was laid out on the bed, Zhan Beiye couldn’t rest easy without checking for any further injuries.
But just as he came out, he saw Qian Jiyun leaving his cabin.
“Going to see that group? You really know them?”
“Knew them from before, through the Sky Phoenix Grass,” Qian Jiyun explained indifferently.
“Tch.”
Zhan Beiye snorted contemptuously.
“With a deal settled in silver and money, there’s no need to check on them. Just let them leave.”
He hadn’t missed the woman’s screaming earlier, but he just didn’t want to deal with it. He had a feeling that getting involved with that group was not a good sign.
“An Jiuyue wants them to stay,” Qian Jiyun said.
“An Jiuyue said so?”
Zhan Beiye raised an eyebrow, puzzled.
Why keep such a group around? Having troublemakers is quite bothersome.
“Since the sister-in-law wants them to stay, let them stay but make sure they don’t bother us. Tell them clearly, if they dare to cause a disturbance, we’ll throw them into the sea to feed the Sea Demonic Beasts.”
He said harshly.
Qian Jiyun’s lips twitched slightly.
Feeding Sea Demonic Beasts, what a thought he had. But, if they really did cause trouble, this was indeed a good idea.
“Hmm.”
He lightly nodded his head, then strode toward the deck.
On the other side, Brother Zheng and the others were about to leave. But Gu Qingyu wasn’t having it. She came aboard, soaking wet, and began yelling at Su Tang’s group, demanding they reimburse her for her silver.
Su Tang, annoyed by her shouting, looked at the woman’s drenched figure and couldn’t help thinking about throwing her back into the water, considering she’d already been soaked once.
Thinking this, he motioned with his finger to a person standing close by.
