That drunken boy was none other than Lin Bei.
He chased Xia An all the way to this hidden forest pavilion, originally wanting to ask questions. But when he saw the young Marquis sitting down in the pavilion, seemingly waiting for someone, Lin Bei suddenly smiled slyly.
Relying on the inexplicable connection between similar people, he could feel that the young marquis must also be a thief.
He came to this group of people so secretly. Could it be that he was waiting for a private meeting with some woman?
Drunk, outdoors...
Tailwalking, peeping...
A series of keywords touched his heart, causing him to stop. He did not step forward immediately, but stopped here, wanting to see what the young marquis was going to do?
Although the young Marquis is also a cultivator, his cultivation level is not high and he always relies on Master Lu for constant protection. He felt that there was no big deal today, so he sent Master Lu away, which gave Lin Bei the conditions to follow him.
If Master Lu was here, then Lin Bei's final march would naturally not be so smooth.
Later, Xue Hu came again, but Xue Hu was a warrior, and a warrior's perception focused more on energy and sound. In other words, he had a stronger perception of moving objects.
Therefore, although his cultivation level was higher than that of Lin Bei, he did not notice Lin Bei who had hidden and restrained his aura in advance.
Seeing a strong man coming, Lin Bei added another key word.
Male male?
He was even more excited.
After eavesdropping for a while, I found that they were talking about some strange topics. It seemed to be something shady, but it wasn't the shady thing he imagined.
Lin Bei was not interested in this. When they saw that they had finished chatting, he turned and left.
Just when he was leaving, Xue Hu immediately sensed the movement of his steps and came to kill him immediately.
Knowing that the other party's cultivation level was far above his own, he would not be able to run far if he escaped. In an instant, Lin Bei's mind was racing, and he was quick to think. With the skillful memory he had developed over many years... he took off his pants in an instant.
It happened that he had drunk a lot of wine earlier and could pretend to be drunk by squinting his eyes, so when Xue Hu came over, he saw a scene of a drunk man relieving himself.
Lin Bei also took the lead and scolded him loudly, which made Xue Hu look embarrassed.
His face filled with evil spirits froze for a moment, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Who told you to urinate and defecate here?!"
"Damn..." Lin Bei lifted up his pants, cursed and turned around, "You look like a gangster, and you have such a sense of public morality..."
He just cursed and walked away, vaguely rubbing his hands on his pants as he walked.
Xue Hu stared at Lin Bei's back for a long time before the evil spirit between his brows dissipated.
"What's wrong?" Xia An stepped forward and asked.
"It's okay." Xue Hu shook his head, "He's just a drunk."
After completing the meeting, the two of them returned to the banquet hall and completed their respective social activities, as if they didn't know each other at all.
After the banquet was over, Xia An hurried back to Dingshan Hou Mansion.
Master Lu was already waiting in the Hou Mansion.
"How is it?" Xia An asked.
"That girl turned out to be a koi spirit. She ran away very fast when she got into the water. I used my magical power to stab her more than ten miles away. I don't know if she was dead. I had those people salvage her overnight. If she was killed, she should be dead. There are corpses." Master Lu replied.
"You attacked her yesterday, but you didn't realize she was a goblin?" The young Marquis was a little displeased.
"Both mortals and little demons are equally weak to me. She didn't reveal her demonic aura, so it's really hard to find her." Master Lu said calmly, "And... if I were to kill her at that time, it wouldn't matter whether she was a human or a demon. It doesn’t matter.”
After hearing what he said, the young Marquis was speechless for a while.
It was indeed him who asked Master Lu to spare Liu Xiaoyu's life. Who would have thought of such a thing. Now that something like this happens, Master Lu cannot be blamed.
But who is to blame?
You can’t blame yourself, right?
So angry.
"Okay, a little monster hit you, and it's probably dead. Even if it's not dead, can a monster still reveal our secret?" The young marquis didn't know whether he was telling Master Lu or himself. Listen, I said a few words anyway.
Master Lu retreated on his own, leaving him alone in the room.
When the young Marquis recalled what happened today, he felt angry... The more he thought about it, the angrier he became!
The Tanyuan Guqin, which he paid a huge price to give as a gift, was overshadowed by the Shushan disciple. Later, the piano broke, and the man claimed that his piano was fake!
I actually didn’t scold him at that time! What was wrong with him, why he accepted the blame so easily.
Plus the banshee escaped...
A series of misfortunes piled up together made Xia An so angry that his chest was about to explode. If Chu Liang was not a Shushan disciple, he would even want to send Master Lu to kill him overnight to vent his anger.
It's a pity that Chu Liang's identity forced him to suppress his late anger. It is really irrational to take big risks and kill Shushan disciples because of this kind of thing.
Xia An muttered in the air: "Don't worry, Xue Lingxue must be in my pocket!"
…
The next day.
He came to Lijiazhuang again and asked to see Xue Lingxue. After all, Xia An's identity represented the Dingshan Hou Mansion, so Xue Lingxue still took the time to meet him.
"Young Master, are you here for something?" Miss Xue, who was sitting opposite, asked softly.
Xia An first sighed with emotion at the beauty of the other party, and then said with a polite smile: "Yesterday I went back and asked my father, and he didn't know that the Tanyuan Guqin that he paid a lot of money for was actually a fake, and it actually hurt him. It was a big mistake to touch Miss Xue's finger. So I was specially told to come and apologize to Miss Xue."
Yes, this is the countermeasure he came up with.
Since the best opportunity to defend has been missed and everyone thinks that the Tan Yuan Guqin is fake, why not simply admit it and then use retreat as an excuse to meet Xue Lingxue alone.
"It's okay." Xue Lingxue responded with a smile: "I am also a cultivator after all. Any minor injuries have been healed long ago."
"Miss Xue is generous and naturally said it was okay. But I can't help but feel guilty. To express my apology, I rented a boat and wanted to invite Miss Xue to a dinner party and enjoy the scenery of Qinnan River." He said calmly and generously.
When inviting a woman, it is most taboo to be deliberate. Especially in the early stages of their acquaintance, if a woman rashly invites him to a banquet, she will feel presumptuous and will inevitably have many scruples.
And a master like Xia An can naturally turn everything into an opportunity for himself to get closer to the opponent. Leave no trace and remain calm.
In his plan, as long as Xue Lingxue happily goes to the appointment, he will definitely find a reason to meet next time during the time they spend together. If you go back and forth like this, sooner or later the other party will get used to his presence. By the time she discovered that her heart was secretly in love, it was already too late.
But such a smooth invitation still made Xue Lingxue shake her head in response.
"Sorry, little Marquis." Xue Lingxue refused: "I already have an appointment today."
"Huh?" Xia An heard this, thought for a while, and then said: "Who is it from Nanguan City? I can go and discuss it and spare Miss Xue's time. If I can't sincerely apologize to Miss Xue, I won't stop I can't sleep or eat well, and I can't give orders to my father."
"He's not from Nanguan City, he's a Chuliang young hero from Shushan Sect." Xue Lingxue raised her eyes and looked out the door as she spoke.
It turned out that when Chu Liang Chu Liang arrived, a delicate and handsome figure had already appeared outside the door.
"Miss Xue... Huh? Mr. Marquis is here too?" Chu Liang greeted the two of them with a gentle smile.
Xia An looked at the face with a warm smile, but felt a surge of fire. He couldn't help but want to punch that face.
New and old grudges.
He gritted his teeth and asked, "Young Master Chu has an appointment with Miss Xue today?"
"Yes." Chu Liang nodded, his eyes moved for a moment, and after a moment of thought, he understood what was going on.
The young prince is obviously interested in Miss Xue. He spent a lot of money on gifts yesterday, so it's not surprising that he came to invite her today.
I did make an appointment with Xue Lingxue to meet today... but it was just a short conversation. Xue Lingxue must have used this as an excuse to push down the young marquis' invitation.
I came to her today to ask for something, and I should help her bear the resentment of the young marquis.
But...yesterday, she stole his limelight, slandered him for giving him a fake piano, and today, she stole his date...this little Marquis might hate himself so much.
well.
"Young Master Chu..." There was an unconcealable gloom in Xia An's eyes. He was about to ask Chu Liang to leave, freeing up Xue Lingxue's schedule today.
If Chu Liang doesn't cooperate...even if he is a Shushan disciple, this is Nanguan City after all!
Looking at the entire Nanguan City, who dares to mess with his little marquis? !
If this kid makes me angry again and again, then I don't mind settling old and new grudges with him!
Seeing Xia An's unkind eyes, Chu Liang vaguely predicted what he was going to say and quickly raised his hand.
Remove the curse!
The spell that was just refreshed today immediately fell on Xia An again. Fortunately, his cultivation level is not as high as mine, so the curse to remove evil can take effect many times.
Xia An called out "Young Master Chu" with a gloomy face and evil eyes. The atmosphere was tense... He suddenly turned to a bright smile again:
"You and Miss Xue must have fun."
