Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

In the study room in the backyard of the county government office.

Just as Yuan Baihua was still in her boudoir, she was extremely conflicted and didn't know what decision to make.

Gu Chan was already lying on the recliner in the study, with her legs crossed, holding a pear in her hand and eating it with a smile on her face.

Ma Zheng squatted beside her and massaged her shoulders and legs. He said with a worried look on his face, "Boss, do you think she will agree to cooperate with us tomorrow?"

"No matter whether she agrees or not, my goal has been achieved anyway." Gu Chan said with a smirk.

Ma Zheng was suddenly confused and didn't understand what Gu Chan meant at all.

Gu Chan sat up straight, patted his forehead and said, "You've been with me for so long, but you haven't made any progress at all. Don't you understand this?"

"Please give me some advice, boss." Ma Zheng said respectfully.

"Think about it! Yuan Baihua and Nangong Jin were having a hot affair last night and even sent assassins to kill me. But today I went to Baihua Tower to find her and talked to her for so long. Nothing happened between us afterwards and she even sent us away with a smile. If King Nanxian and his son knew about this, wouldn't they be extremely anxious?" Gu Chan explained.

Ma Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly realized, "Oh! I understand, Boss, you are trying to disrupt their alliance and make them suspicious of each other. In this way, it will be impossible for the Nanxian King and his son to trust Yuan Baihua again, and Yuan Baihua will definitely choose to go against them for her own benefit."

"There's a saying in my hometown, 'Sima Zhao's ambition is known to everyone.' How ambitious are the Nanxian King and his son? Everyone in Nancheng, a prominent figure, knows it! They may be able to cooperate with you today, but you may no longer be of any use to them, and they may have to get rid of you tomorrow. So if you want to protect yourself, you have to go against them." Gu Chan explained the truth clearly.

Ma Zheng immediately gave him a thumbs up and praised him, "Boss, you are awesome. I learned another trick from you. If I run into this kind of thing next time, I will use the method you taught me to deal with those bad guys."

"You have to grow up quickly. You can't stay by my side forever. One day, you will leave me and stand on your own. When I'm gone, you have to learn to deal with others and protect yourself." Gu Chan said earnestly.

"Don't worry, boss. I have begun secretly learning physical training during this period of time. And I found that there seemed to be a breath in my body that I had been holding back and couldn't use. Whenever I wanted to use it, I farted and the breath was released immediately." Ma Zheng said helplessly.

"Hahaha……"

Gu Chan was immediately amused by him and burst into laughter.

At this moment, the door of the study was suddenly pushed open, and Yuan Jie rushed in anxiously and said, "Boss, something bad has happened. Someone is here to cause trouble."

"Don't worry, I expected it." Gu Chan said with a faint smile.

She had just returned from Baihua Tower not long ago. When Prince Nanxian and his son knew that she had a very pleasant conversation with Yuan Baihua, they were naturally anxious. It was normal for them to send someone to test her now.

Yuan Jie was extremely anxious, "Boss, we are all so worried. You don't know, the people who came are very arrogant. They brought more than 30 thugs with them. They have surrounded the county government yard. Now Cheng Hao and the other two are confronting them with a group of officials!"

"Oh! Aren't you here to test me?" Gu Chan said in surprise.

"I don't think so. He should just be here to cause trouble." Yuan Jie said.

Gu Chan suppressed her laughter and said, "Who is this leader?"

"It's the brother-in-law of King Nanxian." Yuan Jie said.

"Let's go and meet this brother-in-law." Gu Chan stood up and said.

After saying that, she took Ma Zheng and Yuan Jie out of the study and headed towards the outer courtyard in front.

Soon, Gu Chan and the other two arrived in the yard outside.

Sure enough, the facts were just as Yuan Jie said. At this moment in the yard, the two groups were confronting each other with weapons in hand, blocking the huge outer courtyard.

Moreover, the atmosphere between the two sides was extremely tense, and they seemed to be ready to start fighting at the slightest disagreement.

In front of the more than thirty thugs stood a tall and thin man. He was over 1.8 meters tall and was dressed in gorgeous clothes. Not only did he have a pointed face, but he also looked a little pale.

Gu Chan knew at first glance that this person must have indulged in excessive sexual activities for many years, which led to deficiency of qi and blood. In other words, this person had kidney deficiency.

As Yuan Jie squeezed into the crowd, she whispered to Gu Chan, "Shopkeeper, he is the brother-in-law of the Southern King. His name is Sun Tianding, nicknamed Iron Monkey."

"Damn it! He is still an iron monkey! I think it's more accurate to call him a weak monkey." Gu Chan said sarcastically.

As the two were talking, they had already arrived beside Cheng Hao and the other two.

When the three saw Gu Chan coming, they tactfully stepped aside.

Gu Chan took a step forward, stared at Sun Tianding and said, "Why, did King Nanxian ask you to come?"

"It has nothing to do with him. I came here by myself. You are the one called Gu Chan, right?" Sun Tianding stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Gu Chan.

Everyone present could see that the look in his eyes was one of complete contempt for Gu Chan.

Cheng Hao and the other three laughed secretly in their hearts, thinking that even if King Nanxian and his son saw Gu Chan, they would have to lie down obediently and would not dare to be so arrogant. On the contrary, this brother-in-law came over and was extremely arrogant.

They didn't know whether to say that this person was brainless or really brave and fearless.

Sun Tianding didn't care what others thought of him, and continued to do what he wanted. "I heard that when you were in the Seven Stars Sect, you didn't even take the Southern Wise King seriously, and you openly helped the Seven Stars Sect deal with them. I have to say, you are really brave. You even dare to offend the royal family. Who gave you the courage?"

"Oh my god, is this guy an idiot?" Gu Chan turned around and said to Cheng Hao and the other three.

The four of them smiled strangely and nodded.

Sun Tianding suddenly felt humiliated, and waved his hand and said, "Come on, beat them up first."

As soon as he finished speaking, the thirty or so thugs standing behind him rushed forward like crazy, long knives in their hands.

Gu Chan stood there motionless, just silently raised her right hand and waved it forward.

Cheng Hao and his four companions immediately rushed forward with the officers, and the two sides soon engaged in a fight in the outer courtyard.

Ma Zheng stood beside Gu Chan and said excitedly, "Boss, this guy is so brave! He really fights when he says he will. Even the Nanxian King and his son don't have such courage! I really admire him."

"Indeed, he is very brave. It would be a pity if he didn't go to the war. It seems that we have to arrange for him to play in the border barracks." Gu Chan said with a smile.

However, what she didn't notice was that as soon as the two sides started fighting, Sun Tianding quickly shrank back and hid at the gate, for fear that he would be hit by fists and kicks!
