Chapter 105. Five whole years...
Chapter 105. Five whole years...
"Okay, take your time..."
"Walk......"
"Give Dong back, or this girl will be dead!"
Shen Qingqing had just reached the entrance when she was suddenly pulled back.
The events were too sudden. Li Wei had been paying close attention to the man wearing the straw hat, and hadn't given much thought to the group of people at the mouth.
"Miss!"
He drew his sword, ready to step forward, "Don't move. If you move again, I can't say whether your young lady's head will fall to the ground."
That thing must be a treasure, otherwise why would it have been relentlessly pursued for the past few years?
Li Wei stood still, not daring to move, for fear that they would harm Shen Qingqing.
Do you know who you've kidnapped?
"The granddaughter of the current prime minister and the niece of the imperial concubine."
We must distract them and rescue the young lady.
"Brother..."
Oh no, I didn't check the records today, and my hands are trembling.
If the Imperial Concubine were to find out, their fate would be unimaginable.
In the brief moment of hesitation, a good opportunity arose, and Li Wei's mind stirred.
However, the people next to him acted first, raising their swords and striking, several people's heads fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.
Although Shen Qingqing was quickly covered up, blood still inevitably splattered on her face.
"you......"
Before they could utter a word, the person was gone.
The movements were so fast; the swordsmanship was superior to his own. He couldn't even see the trajectory of the sword clearly.
"Thank you, sir. Please release my young lady."
Shen Qingqing was held in the man's arms and had some difficulty breathing. She tried to lift her head to breathe in some fresh air.
His eyes were fixed on the person he had been longing for, and he couldn't bear to look away, but now was not the time to look away.
He is in a dangerous situation now; he is a dead man here, someone who shouldn't exist.
His mission today was to retrieve his belongings, and unexpectedly, he ran into her here.
"Protect your young lady well."
He reluctantly let go of her hand.
Five years have passed, but she is still the same as before; he can recognize her at a glance.
"I will protect my young lady."
Li Wei stepped forward to block Shen Qingqing; this person was very strange.
"I hope so." She sheathed her sword and walked away without waiting for Li Wei to speak again.
“Miss, I failed to protect you properly. Please punish me.”
He knelt on the ground, feeling extremely guilty. He vowed to train diligently upon returning home and provide comprehensive protection for the young lady.
"Get up."
Shen Qingqing did not blame him; the matter was sudden and could be forgiven.
The more indifferent the young lady seemed, the more Li Wei felt guilty. He got up from the ground and followed behind Shen Qingqing, determined not to make the same mistake again.
[Host, aren't you scared?]
After losing her memory, Shen Qingqing's normal reactions are now the same as those of a modern person. Why is the host not reacting? Could it be that she has regained her memories?
【ah?】
【Fear!】
Her heart was pounding in her chest, and her legs were so weak she almost collapsed to her knees, but thankfully the person who had caught her caught her.
It doesn't look like it.
His complexion remained unchanged, and he showed no reaction to movement, just like usual.
[I didn't react in time.]
She reacted rather slowly; things happened so fast that her brain processed the information and sent a message, but her body was a few beats behind in receiving it.
[Host, you should move around more in the future; I'm worried you might develop dementia.]
[I'll forget you first when I get Alzheimer's, then I won't have to do any more tasks, I'm so happy.]
【. 】
The host is easily amused.
After the two left, a figure wearing a straw hat emerged from under the tree.
"Soon, Qingqing, I'll come find you..."
He polished the ring for the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, during which time he used some cleaning agent; those people still died too easily.
His eastward journey lasted a full five years...
He strung the silver ring on a black cord, kissed it in his palm, and then hung it around his neck.
"Hey buddy, how about a visit to the temple fair tonight?"
The black wolf mask made Mo Jing think of the girl. Would she participate?
"one comes."
---
"Miss, please put this on."
Xiao Cui tidied up Shen Qingqing's clothes and straightened the fox mask.
Doesn't that seem strange?
The reflection in the mirror showed her wearing a brocade cloak with a white lining, soft rabbit fur at the collar, and a red pleated skirt, making her look very lively and cute.
【You're such an adorable host, no one can compare to you.】
This is true; the host's beauty is unparalleled.
Shen Qingqing tightened her neck; the soft shawl tickled her neck. Could she take it off?
She touched the shawl (scarf) with her hand, feeling a foreign object in her neck and feeling uncomfortable.
"Miss, don't move. Make sure you wear your shawl properly; you'll catch a cold."
"Oh."
Shen Qingqing compromised; she hated nagging the most, and Xiao Cui was a nag.
"Miss, please don't find this troublesome. Once you get sick, you won't be able to get out of bed for at least half a month."
Their young lady's constitution is such that she can't lift heavy objects with her hands or shoulders; it's truly worrying.
Shen Qingqing's nose was slightly red.
"Look at you, you caught a chill in just a short while! What are we going to do?"
"It's alright, this will work."
If you cover her nose again, how will she breathe?
"Okay, let's go."
Crowds thronged the streets, stalls lined the roadside, and all sorts of snacks were on display. The air was filled with the sounds of vendors hawking their wares, the aroma of steamed buns, and the sweet scent of candied hawthorns. Every inch of the air was bustling with activity.
With gongs and drums, and lion dances, the lion's buttocks wiggled and its tail bounced, making it very agile and cute.
The audience cheered as the opera singers sang. Shen Qingqing, not understanding the opera, pretended to clap, occasionally uttering a "good" from her lips.
A child darted past, nearly knocking Shen Qingqing over. She checked her purse—oh no!
How dare you steal my money!
She disregarded her image and rushed forward; what does image matter in the face of money!
[This ancient practice of stealing from someone? How audacious!]
She has always despised thieves, especially those who steal money!
Other people's money is still money, and none of it is easy to earn!
[Host, slow down! Aren't the two behind you going to catch up?]
Li Wei and Xiao Cui followed closely behind, but there were too many people, and the two were pushed further and further away.
My money is the most important thing!
"Meow--"
Lazy transformed into a little black cat and perched on Shen Qingqing's shoulder. [Host, to the left.]
【OK】
I jumped over the street stalls and chased after the child in black clothes. The child even turned his head and stuck out his tongue.
"This kid's finished—"
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she forced a laugh. Don't let her catch this little brat!
【Host, your family is wealthy. It's not worth it for such a small amount of money.】
This is the first time Xiao Lan has experienced such strong emotional fluctuations from her host, aside from Gu Jing.
Then I remembered how my host used points so meticulously, almost splitting them in two, being so stingy and miserly. So, is my host a little money-grubber?
That money is mine. I can throw my things away myself, but I absolutely will not allow anyone else to spend them!
【All right. 】
