Chapter 259
“Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you?”
Zhu Qingmei didn’t withdraw her longsword. The tip of the sword was still in front of Xiao Chen. She looked at the cold and somewhat restrained young man with a complicated expression and asked coldly.
“Eh … I came here specifically to apologize. Please forgive me.”
Xiao Chen was a little nervous when he faced Zhu Qingmei who was a few years older than him. He knew that he had taken advantage of her big sister. Xiao Chen wasn’t a fool. He was still a normal man. Even if he hadn’t eaten pork, he should have seen a pig run, right?
“Apologize?”
Zhu Qingmei was surprised by Xiao Chen’s answer, but she couldn’t help but feel happy in her heart. Xiao Chen took the initiative to apologize to her, which meant that he still cared about her feelings. It also showed that Xiao Chen was a man of flesh and blood.
Zhu Qingmei sheathed her longsword. She was happy in her heart, but she still said coldly, “You didn’t do anything to me. Why are you apologizing to me?
Besides, you are my savior. I should be thanking you. ”
“Eh … savior?
It’s nothing. It’s not worth mentioning. Hehe! ”
Xiao Chen was slightly startled, but he immediately grinned and said. He glanced around and didn’t find the shadow of the wooden sword. When his eyes swept over the young girl behind Zhu Qingmei, Xiao Chen had a familiar feeling in his heart. He couldn’t help but take another look. After confirming that he hadn’t seen the young girl before, he no longer paid attention to her. His eyes continued to look at Zhu Qingmei and talked about business. “Young Lady Zhu, can you return my weapon?”
Since Xiao Chen appeared, Su Qingyi’s eyes had been on Xiao Chen. She almost couldn’t help but call out Xiao Chen’s name. However, she didn’t say it in the end.
When Xiao Chen looked at her, especially when she saw Xiao Chen looking at her with doubt, she was very nervous. She thought that Xiao Chen recognized her.
In the end, Xiao Chen didn’t recognize Su Qingyi. Su Qingyi couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief, but then she was slightly disappointed.
Xiao Chen didn’t recognize her after the disguise, which meant that Xiao Chen wasn’t too familiar with her aura. This proved that Xiao Chen cared about her too much.
A martial artist’s perception was stronger than a mortal’s. If a male martial artist fell in love with a female martial artist, he would usually remember everything about the female martial artist, including her aura.
Everyone had their own special aura. Xiao Chen didn’t recognize Su Qingyi, which meant that Xiao Chen didn’t care about Su Qingyi. Not to mention falling in love with Su Qingyi.
In fact, Xiao Chen had already felt Su Qingyi’s aura. There was a familiar feeling, but he didn’t react for a moment. Who would have thought that Su Qingyi would come here in disguise?
Xiao Chen was in a hurry to find his wooden sword. If he looked at Su Qingyi a few more times and sensed her aura a few more times, he might be able to recognize Su Qingyi. However, Xiao Chen wasn’t that bored. He wouldn’t stare at a stranger so hard. That was impolite. People would think that Xiao Chen was crazy.
Zhu Qingmei had been secretly paying attention to Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen’s actions. She saw a trace of doubt in Xiao Chen’s eyes and also the disappointment in Su Qingyi’s eyes. She sighed in her heart. This sigh was naturally for Su Qingyi. It seemed that Xiao Chen really didn’t have the so-called love between a man and a woman for Su Qingyi.
Seeing Xiao Chen look at her again, Zhu Qingmei put away her thoughts and pretended not to understand. She said indifferently, “Weapon?
Your weapon?
What do you want from me?
This is ridiculous! ”
“Uh …”
Xiao Chen didn’t expect that Zhu Qingmei wouldn’t admit to taking his wooden sword. He couldn’t help but frown. He didn’t know what to do for now. He thought for a while and pretended to be helpless. “Miss Zhu, give me a price. How can I return my wooden sword?”
Although the wooden sword was a high-grade desolate sword, Xiao Chen didn’t think that Zhu Qingmei would take the wooden sword for herself. He only thought that Zhu Qingmei was purposely making things difficult for him. The wooden sword must have been hidden by Zhu Qingmei. This was his intuition. He believed in Zhu Qingmei’s character. Unless Zhu Qingmei treated him as an enemy, then it was another matter.
“Wooden sword?
Made of wood?
It seems that my sister and I did pick one up just now, but … “Zhu Qingmei didn’t deny it this time. She just whetted Xiao Chen’s appetite. Denying it once was enough. She was afraid that Xiao Chen would be disgusted if she denied it again. Then, the loss would outweigh the gain.
After a short contact with Xiao Chen and the information she heard from Su Qingyi about Xiao Chen and the information Zhu Meitang had on Xiao Chen, Zhu Qingmei had a certain understanding of Xiao Chen’s character and temper. She knew that Xiao Chen was the kind of man who didn’t like to joke and was decisive and cold.
Going too far was as bad as not going far enough!
If she really angered Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen might lose his patience. Even if Xiao Chen didn’t take action against Zhu Qingmei, his impression of Zhu Qingmei would be bad. Xiao Chen might just leave without the wooden sword.
“But what?
What are your conditions?
If I can do it, I won’t refuse it! ”
When Xiao Chen heard that the wooden sword was indeed picked up by Zhu Qingmei, he let out a sigh of relief in his heart. However, he still said it in a righteous manner.
Xiao Chen’s expression was serious, and his eyes were sincere. He didn’t get angry because Zhu Qingmei took his wooden sword. There was no other way. The wooden sword was picked up by a beauty, and it was inspected by a beauty who had slept with him for a night. What else could Xiao Chen do?
People under the eaves had no choice but to lower their heads!
“Pfft!”
Su Qingyi, who was standing at the side without saying a word, had been paying attention to Xiao Chen and Zhu Qingmei’s words and actions. When she saw Zhu Qingmei’s mischief and Xiao Chen’s seriousness, she couldn’t help but laugh.
“Eh …” Xiao Chen’s face turned red from Su Qingyi’s laughter. Although his eyes weren’t looking at Su Qingyi, his senses were extremely sharp. He sensed that Su Qingyi was looking at him with a strange gaze. He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but it was a little abnormal. It seemed like she was paying too much attention to him …
In order to help Su Qingyi smooth things over, Zhu Qingmei intentionally rolled her eyes at Su Qingyi, who was covering her mouth and laughing lightly. She pretended to be a little angry and said, “Little Sister Zi Lan, what are you laughing at?
I’m talking with the famous Ghastly Killing God, Young Master Xiao Chen. Can you not disturb us? ”
“Yes, Sister Mei.” Su Qingyi changed her voice slightly and responded obediently.
“That’s more like it.”
Zhu Qingmei nodded with satisfaction like a big sister. Then she turned to Xiao Chen and said, “Since Young Master Xiao Chen is so sincere, then I, Zhu Qingmei, won’t beat around the bush. I know you are the famous Ghastly Killing God of the Death God Tribe. You should also know that I’m the hall master of the Zhu Meitang, the number two assassin organization in the Death God Tribe, right?”
“I know.” Xiao Chen nodded and looked like he was all ears.
“It’s good that you know. This hall master doesn’t have to waste my breath. I can return the wooden sword to you without a penny, but you have to promise me one condition. That is, you leave the Blue Fiend Pavilion and join the Zhu Meitang. Then, I’ll give you the position of vice hall master. How about it?”
Zhu Qingmei put forward her condition, but she was a little nervous. She was afraid that Xiao Chen would refuse this condition. She unknowingly began to care about Xiao Chen.
Sure enough, in terms of emotions, Zhu Qingmei was no different from other women. Once she gave her body to a man, even if it was carelessly, she would slowly fall in love with that man and care about how that man treated her.
“No!”
When Xiao Chen heard this condition, he didn’t even think about it and directly refused. When he saw Zhu Qingmei’s disappointed expression, he embarrassedly added, “Can you change the condition?”
“Why not?” Zhu Qingmei put away her prestige as a hall master and bitterly asked.
Su Qingyi listened nervously. She naturally hoped that Xiao Chen could join her godsister’s Zhu Meitang. Then, she would be able to stay by Xiao Chen’s side.
