Chương 183: Please Stop (II)

Jiang Pengji's grin widened. "Well… Maybe next time."

Huh! Xu Ke refused to respond. Having a clever langjun sometimes made him despondent, and he felt himself to be redundant.

All of a sudden, she asked, "I've heard of your aunt. She's living alone and you two are very close, right?"

Xu Ke was surprised. "Yes. How did you know?"

"I just want to learn more about you."

Xu Ke was not convinced. She would not act without a purpose. Still, he replied, "Thank you. My aunt has been living alone after her youngest son passed away. She's not wealthy, and makes a living by sewing and washing clothes for others. I'm obliged to her for helping rest my deceased mother and bring food to me when I was imprisoned...

I was planning to take her here later, but since Langjun has mentioned it, I would like to ask for your favor."

That made the second favor Jiang Pengji had been asked for on the same day.
