Chapter 156 I’m hungry
At night, at three o'clock in the morning, a tall, beautiful woman in a red dress slowly walked out of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion. Behind her was a little girl in a maid's clothes. The little girl was wearing a maid's clothes and had a very ordinary appearance, but she had a pair of very beautiful eyes. The two people were Gu Yunshen dressed as a woman and Hua Liuli disguised as his maid. They walked to the door where the carriage was parked, one after the other.
"Miss, let me help you get on the carriage." Seeing Gu Yunshen trying to get on the carriage by himself, Hua Liuli, disguised as a maid, hurried forward and stretched out her hand to help him get on the carriage, looking like a dutiful maid.
Seeing this, Gu Yunshen twitched the corners of his lips and said to her, "Miss Hua, you should go back. The thief only needs one person to deliver the money. If you go, you will alert the thief."
Hua Liuli said, "I won't follow you into the warehouse. I'll wait for you outside. You look like a rich girl right now. How can a rich girl not have a maid?" After saying that, without waiting for him to speak, she urged, "Miss, go up quickly and stop thinking about it."
Gu Yunshen: “…”
Seeing that Hua Liuli was determined to go with him, Gu Yunshen was helpless and didn't know what to say. He simply ignored her and got on the carriage. Hua Liuli followed her.
After they got on the carriage, it slowly drove towards the abandoned warehouse in the east of the city.
Inside the carriage, Hua Liuli looked at Gu Yunshen, who was dressed as a woman, and praised him with a smile: "Brother Gu, you look so good in women's clothes. This is the first time I see a man dressed as a woman who looks better than a woman."
"..." Gu Yunshen was speechless. No man likes to hear others praise him for looking good in a woman's costume. Looking at Hua Liuli staring at him with a smile, her eyes curved like a cunning vixen, he coughed lightly to change the subject, "Miss Hua, what do you think of Aotian?" Chu Aotian didn't like Hua Liuli, and he was a little curious about how Hua Liuli felt about Chu Aotian?
When Hua Liuli heard "Chu Aotian", the smile on her face faded. She frowned and looked at Gu Yunshen, "Brother Gu, why did you suddenly ask this question? Did the Seventh Prince ask you to ask me?"
Before Gu Yunshen could answer, Hua Liuli said, "Even if you don't tell me, I know that it was the Seventh Prince who asked you to test me. Go back and tell him that I don't like him and tell him not to worry about not being able to marry his sweetheart. When I return to Liangzhou, I will ask my father to ask the emperor to cancel my marriage with Chu Aotian." She would never marry a man who had another woman in his heart.
"Miss Hua, don't get me wrong. Aotian didn't ask me to ask you this. I just wanted to ask you out of curiosity." Seeing that Hua Liuli had misunderstood Chu Aotian, Gu Yunshen hurriedly explained to her.
Hua Liuli didn't respond after hearing this. She thought, Chu Aotian doesn't like me, and I don't like Chu Aotian either. When I return to Liangzhou, I will ask my father to ask the emperor to cancel my marriage with Chu Aotian and make Chu Aotian and his lover come true. She has been playing in the capital for more than a month, and it's time to return to Liangzhou...
But when she left the capital and returned to Liangzhou, she would not be able to see Ning Sangsang, this interesting little girl. Oh, it would be great if Ning Sangsang could go back to Liangzhou with her...
Gu Yunshen didn't know what Hua Liuli was thinking. Seeing that Hua Liuli remained silent, he thought, Aotian and Hua Liuli are as heartless as fallen flowers and flowing water. They are not interested in each other, so it's better to cancel the marriage.
However, their marriage may not be so easy to cancel. Hua Liuli is the daughter of General Weiyuan, who has a large army guarding the border. It would be difficult to cancel their marriage...
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the carriage fell silent. An hour later, the carriage stopped not far from the abandoned warehouse in the east of the city. Gu Yunshen got off the carriage, and Hua Liuli followed suit. Gu Yunshen said, "Miss Hua, just wait here. The thief must be secretly monitoring us. Don't follow him."
Hearing this, Hua Liuli nodded and said, "Then Brother Gu, you go alone and be careful."
Gu Yunshen nodded, then walked straight towards the abandoned warehouse. The moon was bright today, but the moonlight shining on the earth was not dim. With the help of the moonlight, Gu Yunshen walked steadily towards the abandoned warehouse. The door of the warehouse was half-open, revealing a gloomy atmosphere.
Gu Yunshen frowned and gently pushed open the door of the warehouse. A musty and stale smell hit him in the face. He quickly looked around and saw that the warehouse was empty, with only a few piles of messy goods scattered on the ground, which looked particularly desolate. He was secretly alert, knowing that the thief must be hiding somewhere.
"I've brought the banknotes you asked for. Come out and get them." He said, and he changed his voice, so it sounded like a woman's soft and charming voice.
No one responded to his words.
Gu Yunshen frowned, it seemed that the man was very vigilant. Thinking that the letter said to put down the silver bills and leave, Gu Yunshen put the 100,000 taels of silver bills on the ground, pressed it with a small stone, then turned and left the warehouse. He couldn't lure the thief out, and then it all depended on whether Pei Xingjian and his team could wait until the thief came out. Pei Xingjian and his team had set up a tight net around the warehouse, and as long as the thief showed up, he would never come back.
At this time, Li Rong and Qiu Hai, who were being waited for by Gu Yunshen and his group, were trying to trick Yang Hua into meeting Ning Sangsang in a large mansion outside the capital.
Yang Hua remained unmoved by their lies and looked at them expressionlessly, "You two, your story is really brilliant, but unfortunately, I, Yang Hua, am not someone that can be fooled so easily." Yang Hua smiled coldly, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he could see through their hearts, "Tell me! What is your purpose? Tell me the truth!"
Li Rong and Qiu Hai looked at each other, and then Li Rong said: "Boss Yang, to be honest, we came here this time because the two of us brothers caught a man who said he knew your background and wanted to meet you, so we brothers came to you and wanted to take you to meet that person and help you find your relatives, but we were afraid that the person was a liar, so we just made up some reasons to let you go over and take a look." He knew that Yang Hua had been investigating his background all these years, and when he said this, Yang Hua would probably be fooled by them.
Yang Hua frowned after hearing what Li Rong said. He had indeed been investigating his life experience over the years, so he was a little shaken when he heard what Li Rong said. He looked at Li Rong and Qiu Hai and asked, "Where is that person now?"
"We have locked that person in a secret room. If you want to see him, then go with us. If you don't want to see him, I will kill him when I get back." Li Rong said. You can't force Yang Hua to go, you can only trick him.
Yang Hua pondered for a moment and said, "Lead the way."
He thought that these two men's martial arts skills were inferior to his, so he could deal with them even if they used tricks.
What's more, he has no grudge against these two people, so there is no need for them to deal with him.
He really wants to know about his own life experience, so there's no harm in going and taking a look!
Li Rong nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, feeling relieved. He had finally succeeded in fooling Yang Hua!
That girl is a ruthless person. If they fail to successfully complete the task assigned by that girl, that girl will never let them go.
……
In the secret room, Ning Sangsang played poker with Yan Xuanjing for several hours. When she found that she could not get any good out of him, she felt that playing poker was meaningless. She waved at Yan Xuanjing who was shuffling the cards and said, "No more, no more. I'm tired."
[This Yan Zi plays poker like a seasoned expert, and has good luck. Nothing good can come of him. It's really boring to play with him. It's more interesting to play poker with Chu Aotian, Gu Yunshen and others. After all, it allows me to experience the pleasant feeling of beating up the scumbag.]
Yan Xuanjing's eyes flickered when he heard that, and he said to her, "Keep going, my luck might not be good next time."
Ning Sangsang: “…”
[It seems that Yan Zi has become a little addicted to poker because of me. She even made up such a lame excuse to trick me just to play poker. ]
Ning Sangsang was just thinking about it when her stomach started to growl.
[I'm hungry. It's time to eat. ]
When Yan Xuanjing heard Ning Sangsang say that she was hungry, he quickly put down the playing cards in his hand and said, "I'll go find something to eat." After that, he stood up and left quickly without waiting for Ning Sangsang to speak.
There was food in Ning Sangsang's space, but it was not convenient for Yan Xuanjing to take it out here, so she did not stop him and watched him leave quietly. After Yan Xuanjing left the secret room, Ning Sangsang took out some bread and snacks from the space and ate them with relish.
After eating and drinking, Ning Sangsang leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest in his sea of consciousness.
After a long time, footsteps sounded. Ning Sangsang looked towards the sound and saw Yan Xuanjing coming back. He was holding two branches with a roasted chicken on them. Ning Sangsang raised her eyebrows. Did Yan Xuanjing bring her a roasted chicken? Before she could react, Yan Xuanjing came over and handed her the roasted chicken.
Ning Sangsang's eyes lit up and she looked at him, "Are you bringing this for me?"
Yan Xuanjing nodded slightly.
Ning Sangsang saw this and sighed, "Sixth Prince, you are such a kind person. Since you are so kind, I will not be polite." As she said that, she happily took the roast chicken, then thought of something and looked up and asked him, "Have you eaten it?"
This guy hasn't eaten yet, has he?
Yan Xuanjing said: "I ate it, you eat it."
When he heard that Ning Sangsang was hungry, he hurried out to catch a chicken and quickly roasted it. Fearing that Ning Sangsang was starving, he hurried back without eating.
Ning Sangsang saw that Yan Xuanjing didn't eat, so she broke the roast chicken into two halves and gave the extra half to Yan Xuanjing, "Let's eat together." Without waiting for him to speak, she added, "Man is iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Don't tell me you have eaten, I can hear your stomach growling."
