Sometimes, people's feelings are not only rewarded by one-sided efforts, but also need someone to silently protect them.
Wu Jie thought silently in his heart, his heart full of expectations.
I hope that this seed will mature and give Meng Ji the reward she wants. Such expectations cannot be concealed no matter what.
"Sir, do you want to buy a painting?"
When Wu Jie heard the news, he saw a young man who looked like a scholar was selling paintings. He was holding an ink painting in his hand.
Although this ink painting looks simple, it exudes a rich fragrance. This fragrance is a simple and vicissitudes of life, which makes people feel endless emotions when smelling it.
Wu Jie nodded and said, "It's a really nice painting, but I don't need it now. You can go look elsewhere."
The scholar nodded, then turned and left.
Wu Jie and his mother continued to wander on the street. Mrs. Wu said to Wu Jie: "You should really buy that painting and show it in front of Miss Meng. Then she will definitely look at you differently."
Wu Jie was a little helpless: "Mom, actually there is no need to go to such trouble. Meng Ji has promised me to be my wife..."
Mrs. Wu: "I can see from her eyes that she has some hesitation in her heart. You must hold her firmly so that the Meng family and the Wu family can truly be integrated."
Wu Jie: "Mom, who is Mengji thinking about? This is her freedom. You have to understand her. After all, it is her first love. Not anyone can let it go. You have to understand her."
Mrs. Wu smiled and nodded, and said: "My son, do you know that if a man can't even control his wife's heart, then he is still a man. Our noble Wu family doesn't want others to laugh at it."
Wu Jie looked at his mother helplessly: "Mom..."
He was about to say something when he suddenly heard a noise. He turned around and saw a group of people gathered together at the entrance of an alley, seemingly fighting.
A man with tattered clothes and blood all over his body was lying on the side groaning with a look of pain on his face.
That man was the scholar who was selling paintings just now. His paintings were scattered all over the floor. At this time, he was lying on the ground in a miserable state, his body curled up, as if he was enduring great pain.
Wu Jie's heart tightened and he said to his mother: "Mom, wait here, I'll go over and take a look." Then he walked towards the group of people.
"Stop it, you bastards."
Wu Jie approached the group of people and gave a sharp shout, and the air around him suddenly froze.
The group of people couldn't help being startled when they heard Wu Jie's sharp shout, and they all stopped their movements.
Their eyes turned to Wu Jie.
A middle-aged man snorted coldly and said to Wu Jie: "Boy, are you tired of living? You actually dare to block my business. This is my territory. If he wants to sell paintings here, he must be obedient." Pay protection fees."
The scholar got up from the ground, looked at the group of people in front of him and said, "You scum, why should I give you money? Who said this place can only be yours, but I won't give it to you."
The middle-aged man said angrily: "Good boy, since you don't have to drink wine as a penalty, let me give you a taste of my fist and beat him to death."
Wu Jie: "Stop. I advise you to get out of here. Otherwise, I won't blame you for being rude."
The middle-aged man laughed and said: "You are such an arrogant boy. I will teach you a lesson today to see how arrogant you are."
Before the man could finish speaking, Wu Jie swayed and rushed over.
Wu Jie was so fast that the middle-aged man couldn't react in time and was knocked unconscious by Wu Jie's knife. The remaining men were shocked when they saw the scene in front of them.
one move.
With just one move, their eldest brother was knocked away.
He knocked his eldest brother away with one move. How terrifying is Wu Jie's strength?
How could this group of men dare to fight Wu Jie? They ran away one by one and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Wu Jie was stunned. He didn't expect this group of people to be so cowardly. They all ran away as soon as they met. He shook his head with disdain. Sneered.
Wu Jie turned around and looked at the scholar. He was picking up things scattered on the ground and drawing. Wu Jie knelt down to help him.
The scholar glanced at Wu Jie, smiled slightly and said, "Thank you very much for your help today. If there is a chance, I will definitely come to thank you."
Wu Jie waved his hand with a smile and said: "No need, it's just a little effort. Since the young master and I met like this, we are destined to meet each other. If the young master is willing, we will become friends today. I wonder what you think, brother?"
After hearing this, the scholar's face showed a look of joy and he hurriedly said: "Okay, I have exactly what I mean. My name is Qian Jue, what about you?"
Wu Jie's expression was slightly startled: "My name is Wu Jie."
Qian Jue smiled and said: "Today, I am really busy and cannot have a good drink with Brother Wu. If I have the opportunity another day, I will definitely invite Wu Wu to have a good drink to celebrate our friendship."
Wu Jie smiled and nodded: I don’t know where Xiongtai lives. I’ll bring some wine and go visit him another day. "
Qian Jue smiled and said: "I live in Qingzhu Town, Sanchi Lane, the third house on the left is my residence."
Wu Jie cupped his hands and said, "Goodbye."
Qian Jue watched Wu Jie leave.
