Chapter 139 - -one dead and one injured (3)
I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess
He was left dumbfounded as he rushed into the night sky and left. âYouâre going too far!â Vice-Swordmaster Fang was furious. He didnât manage to catch his breath and his injuries were aggravated, causing him to faint. Back at home. Naturally, Xiao ran did not know what had happened to the two of them. He was tired after a busy day. After taking a shower, he lay on the bed to rest. Without little Zhouâs interference, he had a good sleep. He got up from the bed and stretched his back. He bought some breakfast and had just taken two bites when two uninvited guests climbed over the wall. He looked at them. Xiao ranâs face was taut.âYouâve grown up now. Youâve learned how to come in without telling me.â It was Xiao Zhou and his aunt, Shen Lu. Xiao Zhouâs face was bitter.âBrother Xiao, this really has nothing to do with me. It was my aunt who brought me in by climbing over the wall.â âYou, come over.â Xiao ran waved his hand. Xiao Zhou walked over and Xiao ran knocked him on the head.âWho told you to bring her here?â âSheâs my aunt. Sheâll beat me up if I donât bring her here. â âDid I practice the heavenly Yin ghostly movement technique for nothing? Can she outrun you?â âYeah, I canât outrun her.â Little Zhou said weakly. Xiao ran was too lazy to respond to him. âIâve already done what aunty promised you, so you canât pester me anymore. â After saying that, little Zhou turned around and left in a hurry, leaving his aunt behind. Xiao ranâs face darkened.âCome back here.â âXiao ran, Iâm sorry. Iâll treat you to a drink as an apology.â Hearing this, Xiao Zhou ran even faster. In a few breaths, it was completely gone. Shen Lu walked over with a smile and sat down in front of him. She held her smooth and fair chin in her hands and blinked her big eyes, which fell on him.âYou donât welcome me that much?â âMiss, please mind your manners!â Xiao ran said. âThe man and the woman are both unmarried. If you like someone, you have to pursue them boldly. Is there anything wrong with that?â Shen Lu said with confidence. âHow can we start a family before the great Zhou is destroyed?â âIf everyone thinks like you, then all the men in great Xia, including Emperor Sheng Wen, will be single.â Shen Lu rolled her eyes. There was no respect for Emperor Sheng Wen in his words. Xiao ran didnât want to say anything. He was mentally exhausted, so he took the bun and ate it silently. âWhatâs so good about these things?â Shen Lu took away all the breakfast. He met Xiao ranâs puzzled gaze. âIâll personally cook for you. â She wriggled her slim waist and entered the kitchen. After a while. Shen Lu returned again. Her beautiful eyes fell on him, as if she wanted to see through him completely. âWhat are you looking at?â Xiao ran said. âI canât look at you?â Shen Lu said. âYour kitchen is so clean. Itâs even cleaner than your face. Thereâs nothing there.â âIâve already told you. Youâre busy with work. Usually, youâre either eating in the Yamen or outside. You donât have time to cook for yourself.â Xiao ran said. âThe food outside is not clean. Youâre not allowed to eat outside in the future. Iâll make it for you.â She stretched out her Jade-like fingers and lifted Xiao ranâs chin. âYou wait here, Iâll go buy some groceries.â Xiao ran was speechless. Wasnât he being too enthusiastic? After she left, Xiao Wu came out of the room and sat opposite him, her two eyes eagerly looking at him. âDonât look at me. Itâs useless. I didnât eat. â Xiao ran shrugged. Qingxin Lake. At the place where Xiao Zhou was having his blind date. By the lake. A young woman, wearing a veil, was waiting here with a maidservant. From the back, she was indeed quite beautiful. She was also quiet and there was nothing wrong with her. Looking at the sky, it was almost noon. The other party had not come over yet. The maidservant complained,âmiss, could this person have stood us up?â At this moment. Xiao Zhou jogged over from the back, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He looked around, and his gaze fell on them. He walked over quickly. She apologized,âIâm sorry! Iâm late, sorry to keep you waiting. â Today, he had specially dressed up. He was wearing a set of white brocade clothes with two intersecting black and gold patterns on his chest, which added a bit of handsomeness. âYou are Zhou Ming?â The maidservant said. Her scrutinizing eyes seemed to see through him completely. Xiao Zhou faced it calmly.âYeah.â After taking a look, the maidservant was quite satisfied. She gave her young lady a look, indicating that it was alright. The young ladyâs name was Cui Yan. She was a little shy and secretly sized him up. It was just as the matchmaker had said, he was a talented man. Just from his appearance, she was quite satisfied. âLetâs take a walk alone!â Little Zhou suggested. âYes.â Cui Yan responded softly. He winked at the maidservant, indicating for her to leave. âHehe ...â The servant girl giggled and looked at the two of them playfully. He gave up some space. The two of them strolled around the lakeside. They walked very slowly, and it would be considered good if they could take three steps in a minute. They dawdled and looked at each other. Even if little Zhou was an old bird who had been tested by the girls of the drunken immortal court for a long time ... But when it came to life, he would not be careless. This time, he came with full sincerity. The atmosphere was awkward. Xiao Zhou, who used to be good at talking, was now mute. Every time he wanted to speak, he would not be able to say anything. âIs it tiring to work as a divine sword guard?â asked Cui Yan. âItâs alright! Iâm quite busy when Iâm busy, and Iâm also very free when Iâm free. â As soon as the topic started, Xiao Zhou took the initiative to ask,âwhat about you? I heard from the matchmaker that your embroidery is very beautiful. Can you embroider one for me when youâre free?â âYes.â Cui Yan nodded.
