"Who is it?"
A crisp and cold voice came from the door, but for some reason, the voice was filled with vigilance.
Su Che knew that it was Mu Wanqing's voice and said,""This one is Su Che. When I passed by this place, I saw that there was only this young lady's family. It's already late now, so I wonder if this young lady could let this one stay for the night?”
Inside the room, a woman wearing a black brocade dress, a black bamboo hat, and a veil was guarding the door with a sword in her hand. She was staring outside the door warily.
This woman was Mu Wanqing, who had fled from Bi Luo Manor to assassinate Lady Wang, Li Qingluo.
Mu Wanqing had been chased by Madam Wang's evil servants all the way. When she finally managed to escape, she met a shameless man who wanted to unveil her in an inn. After killing the shameless man with a sword, she found out that the person she killed was Sun Sanba, the disciple of the South Sea Crocodile God, Yue Laosan, one of the four evildoers.
When he heard that the four villains had arrived in Dali, he hurriedly left the inn and rushed back home. However, he did not expect to hear a knock on the door not long after he arrived home.
Mu Wanqing, who thought that it was her enemy, picked up her sword and stood guard at the door, ready to kill the enemy who had barged in.
Unexpectedly, a gentle voice came from outside the door. Mu Wanqing finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that it was not an enemy. She had been running around for days and was already exhausted. She did not have the strength to fight anymore.
He sheathed his sword and sat down at the wooden table. He placed his sword on the table and said coldly,"No, I won't let you stay overnight. You'd better leave quickly.”
Of course, Su Che knew that Mu Wanqing wouldn't let him in so easily. However, it was already late and he didn't want to travel in the middle of the night or sleep in the wilderness. He thought of an idea.
"Young Lady, this one went out to travel the world. I didn't expect that a thief would steal my money yesterday. Because I didn't have money to pay the bill, I was chased out by the shop owner.
It's late now. I haven't eaten for a whole day. I'm thirsty and hungry. I wonder if you can take me in for the night. I'll leave tomorrow morning and won't disturb you.”
Su Che's voice was weak and his tone was rather miserable. It sounded like it was true. At least Mu Wanqing believed it.
Her eyes were wavering, clearly hesitant. However, if Mu Wanqing could see Su Che holding back his laughter through the door, she would not think so.
"This guy can't be so unlucky, right? Judging from his weak voice, he doesn't seem like someone who knows martial arts. Should I let him stay the night?”
Seeing that there was no movement inside, Su Che was not anxious. He smiled and waited quietly outside the door.
With a creak, the wooden door was pulled open and Mu Wanqing appeared in front of the door with a sword in her hand and a bamboo hat on her head.
Su Che's smile disappeared instantly and he quickly put on a tired look. However, Su Che did not notice that his clothes were still as clean as new. He did not look like he had been running around for a long time.
Su Che looked over curiously and saw that even at home, she was wearing a bamboo hat. A gentle breeze blew past, gently lifting the black gauze covering the front of the hat. What Su Che saw was a face covered in black gauze, revealing only a pair of eyes.
Su Che naturally knew why she had always covered her face. This was also a request from her master and mother.
She made her swear that the first man who saw her face would either be killed by her or marry him.
To be honest, when Su Che first read the original novel, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to cheat his daughter.
After all, if Mu Wanqing really did as Qin Hongmian said, what if the first man who saw Mu Wanqing's face was a vicious and evil villain? If Mu Wanqing could not kill him, wouldn't she have to marry her?
No, Mu Wanqing really followed Qin Hongmian's request. However, the first person to see her appearance was Duan Yu, the little cheat expert.
Thinking of the description of Mu Wanqing's appearance in the original novel, Su Che was curious about how stunning her face was under the hood. However, Su Che was not a lecherous person. Moreover, she only revealed her eyes. Although her eyes were quite charming, Su Che still looked away.
He said," Su Che greets you. I'm thirsty and hungry. I wonder if you can let me stay the night?"”
Under the bamboo hat, Mu Wanqing's brows furrowed slightly. She looked at Su Che carefully and saw that there was nothing on his body. His palms were also extremely smooth. He didn't look like someone who practiced the sword. Moreover, she didn't sense any inner energy on her body. It seemed that she was indeed a weak scholar who had gone out to travel.
Although Su Che's long robe was as clean as new and did not match his exhausted appearance, the simple-minded Mu Wanqing thought that Su Che loved cleanliness.
He turned around and walked into the house, saying,"Come in."
Her voice was cold and distant, but Su knew that Mu Wanqing was a girl who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, so why would she care?
A smile flashed across his eyes as he followed Mu Wanqing into the house.
Actually, Mu Wanqing couldn't tell that Su Che had internal energy because the difference in their cultivation levels was too great.
Although Mu Wanqing's talent was not bad, she had followed Qin Hongmian since she was young and lived in seclusion here. She did not have any profound cultivation techniques. She only learned the third-rate martial arts that Qin Hongmian taught her. It was already good enough for her to have a second-rate late-stage cultivation. How could she see through Su Che, who was already in the early stage of the Hou Tian Realm?
After entering the room, Mu Wanqing led Su Che to a guest room. Before Su Che could say anything, she walked out of the guest room. Su Che's eyes flashed with a trace of awkwardness. He could only sit on a chair in the room and silently look around.
After a while, the door suddenly opened and Mu Wanqing came in with some food and a pot of tea. After placing them on the table, she glanced at Su Che and walked out.
Su Che's heart warmed. Although Mu Wanqing looked cold on the surface, she was actually kind-hearted. Seeing Mu Wanqing leave the room, he quickly said,""This Su thanks Young Lady. If there is a chance, this Su will definitely repay Young Lady's kindness. I wonder if Young Lady can tell this Su Young Lady's name?”
Mu Wanqing stopped in her tracks and continued walking towards the door. She said coldly,""You don't need to know my name, and I don't need your repayment. You can leave tomorrow morning.”
Su Che saw the beauty leave and smiled. He closed the door and sat at the table. He looked at the food on the table, which was not very sumptuous, and his appetite was aroused.
Only then did Su Che remember that he hadn't had a meal today, so he didn't stand on ceremony and began to eat heartily.
