The old woman didn't wait for Yun Shunan to respond, and continued, "I have a grandson, good-looking, and rich. Why don't you get to know him? I promise you'll like him."
As if afraid Yun Shunan would refuse, the old woman went on, "My grandson, he's truly rich. You can trick his money too, Grandma will team up with you to trick him."
Yun Shunan held her forehead and chuckled. This old woman was too adorable. She even wanted to team up with her to trick her own grandson.
"I'm sorry, Grandma, I'm already married." Seeing an opportunity to speak, Yun Shunan immediately declined the old woman's kind offer.
"Ah, what a pity. Such a good girl." The old woman's fondness for Yun Shunan's pure face grew, but she was truly regretful to hear that Yun Shunan was already married.
Seeing the old woman about to get up, Yun Shunan quickly went to help her.
"Grandma, why are you living alone on this mountain?" Yun Shunan noticed that although the old woman's clothes were a bit old, the fabric was of excellent quality, and her demeanor was noble. She couldn't help but feel curious.
"Ah, for peace and quiet."
After saying that, the old woman seemed a little embarrassed and continued, "Also, do you know there's an old man on the mountainside?"
Yun Shunan's crescent eyes rolled. She was probably referring to that old man.
Unsure of what the old woman was going to say next, Yun Shunan responded first.
"Grandma thinks that old man is truly handsome, and his demeanor is like a young man's." After speaking, the old woman's face, dotted with age spots, flushed slightly, and she bashfully covered her mouth with her hand.
Yun Shunan thought of that annoying old man and couldn't believe he had such a charming old woman attracted to him, despite his childish ways.
Speaking of that "old man," the old woman's words became more numerous, "And, that old man's medical skills are also exceptional.
It's as if he knows when my body isn't well. Every time I feel unwell, he happens to be at the mountaintop to diagnose and treat me."
Seeing Yun Shunan looking thoughtful, the old woman's face turned even redder, "Girl, you won't laugh at me, will you?
Even though Grandma is old, the desire for beauty is universal, isn't it?"
After speaking, the old woman covered her wrinkled face with her hands, but still peeked through her fingers, secretly observing Yun Shunan's reaction.
"Grandma, you've misunderstood. I don't think that way at all. It's wonderful that you can still be yourself at your age!"
Yun Shunan looked at the old woman with a sincere gaze, offering her encouragement.
"Really?"
Yun Shunan nodded vigorously, responding and affirming her.
"Sweetheart, a hug." The old woman excitedly pulled Yun Shunan into her embrace. Yun Shunan's hands tensed up but she held back and didn't refuse the old woman's affectionate gesture.
Only after the old woman released her did Yun Shunan finally finish what she hadn't said earlier, "Grandma, actually, I know the old man you're talking about."
The old woman was very surprised, "You know him?"
Yun Shunan smiled, "Yes, he's the one who sent me here."
"Then, sweetheart, you must help Grandma! Grandma's happiness depends on you."
Yun Shunan smiled and agreed.
"Ah, right, sweetheart, why did you come to this mountain too?" The old woman asked with a puzzled look.
"I came because... because of some conflict with my husband." Looking into the old woman's kind eyes, Yun Shunan didn't want to lie.
The old woman heard this and stroked Yun Shunan's hair, "If you have a conflict, resolve it as soon as possible. You are young, it's good that you are at your age, you still have plenty of time to love each other.
But sweetheart, you must cherish your time and love with all your heart, otherwise, by the time you reach my age, there won't be much time left."
The old woman asked more questions about the old man, and Yun Shunan answered them one by one.
Afterward, Yun Shunan cooked for the old woman and then left.
-------------------------------------
Last night, in a small inn in the capital.
Yun Rong opened the door to the adjacent room and was met with numerous gun muzzles. Yun Rong felt a desire to retreat.
However, thinking of sixty million, Yun Rong straightened her body, "Hello, I want to borrow money too."
"I just heard someone here got a loan, so I came in."
"Borrow money? Then you've come to the wrong place. We don't lend money here; we gamble with lives."
Yun Rong followed the voice and looked towards the left corner. Only then did she notice a man sitting on the sofa in the left corner who looked very strong. The speaker was the one next to him.
"Gamble... gamble with lives?" Yun Rong's soul trembled as she met those sharp eyes.
"That's right. If you win, you live; if you lose, you die. What? Are you going to gamble?" The man by the sofa asked Yun Rong playfully.
Yun Rong's grip on the bedsheet tightened. After a moment, she replied resolutely, "I'll gamble."
Seeing this, the others showed no surprise, as they had seen such scenes many times.
The person on the sofa raised his hand, and everyone immediately lowered their guns.
"It's very simple. You can borrow any amount now, but if you can't repay it in twenty days, you will die by our guns."
The man standing by the sofa brought his gun to his lips and blew on it.
"It's still not too late to regret it, but if you choose to gamble, there's no turning back," the man continued.
At this moment, Yun Rong had lost all reason and only wanted to grasp this last glimmer of hope.
"I'll gamble!" Yun Rong's voice was firm.
As long as she became Mu Qi's woman, sixty million would be nothing more than a fly's leg to her.
Thinking this, Yun Rong's confidence grew.
"Good, such spirit! Tell me, how much money do you want?" Yun Rong was now like a turtle in a jar, and everyone had let down their guard.
"I need sixty million."
"Sixty million?" Everyone looked at Yun Rong with an unusual gaze.
"You don't think that just because the money is enough, you can escape the country and we won't find you, do you?" Suddenly, many eyes were fixed on Yun Rong.
"No, it's not like that. I will repay it." Yun Rong started to sweat profusely in her haste.
"It doesn't matter if it is. Whether you go to heaven or earth, we will catch you."
The man standing by the sofa raised his gun and pointed it at Yun Rong, a hint of wickedness in his eyes.
Yun Rong's legs were already trembling with fear.
"Enough, give her the money." At this moment, the man sitting on the sofa suddenly spoke. The man by the sofa immediately lowered his gun and signaled to the others.
Several people immediately placed several suitcases filled with money in front of Yun Rong.
Yun Rong's gaze was fixed on the suitcases. After the men left, Yun Rong immediately stepped forward and opened a suitcase.
Looking at the red bills inside, Yun Rong struggled to drag the suitcases away with her slender arms.
Everyone watched Yun Rong's comical display with amusement.
Just as Yun Rong was about to leave the room, she was suddenly called back by a familiar voice.
