Hurry up and carry the little loli home. Ask a woman to wash her and change her clothes. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it tomorrow.
This was what Zhao Yu had planned from the start, but it was all ruined by a woman.
"You little thief, it's fine that you stole the Night-Luminescent Pearl from Master Wei's house, but today you're actually snatching a commoner's daughter?”
Gongsun Li pointed at the girl in Zhao Yu's arms and looked at him angrily.
"Woman, how can you accuse someone of being innocent? I saved this girl in the forest. She's only unconscious now. Besides, she's so young. Why would I snatch her? If I wanted to snatch her, it would be you.”
Zhao Yu looked at Gongsun Li unhappily. He realized that his attitude towards this woman was too gentle, causing her to be so arrogant in front of him.
No matter how Zhao Yu explained, Gongsun Li would not believe him.
"That's just your word. Who would believe you if you say you want to save him?”
Zhao Yu was too lazy to waste his breath on this woman. They were already close to the city gates of Daliang, and there were more pedestrians around. If this woman continued to spout nonsense, the entire Daliang Empire would know about it.
Seeing that Zhao Yu wanted to leave, Gongsun Li thought that he was feeling guilty and wanted to stop him. However, she pulled Jing Ke, who was beside her, to stop him.
"Junior Sister is willful, please forgive me, Brother Zhao.”
Jing Ke suddenly felt that this junior sister of his did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. The two of them had already seen how Zhao Yu dealt with the farmers, so why did he still not have any respect for Zhao Yu?
"Forget it. I'm in a hurry to bring people back to the inn. Let's part ways here.”
After saying that, Zhao Yu quickly left.
"Senior brother, why did you pull me just now? There's definitely something wrong with that little thief.”Seeing that Zhao Yu had already left, the furious Gongsun Li could only vent her anger on Jing Ke.
Jing Ke sighed. For a moment, he didn't know how to tell this junior sister.
Zhao Yu was obviously not a kind person. Killing them was no different from killing an ant.
Making enemies for nothing was not the behavior of a smart person.
"Alright, I think what Brother Zhao said just now was true. That woman's clothes are ragged. One look and you can tell that she's not the daughter of an ordinary family. She might have really entered Su Lin by mistake and encountered a ferocious beast. Tomorrow is the farmer's treasure trading event.”
Thinking of her grandfather's mission, Gongsun Li could only follow Jing Ke into the city angrily.
When the waiter saw Zhao Yu carrying a beggar girl into the inn, he did not ask about it and continued to smile.
Zhao Yu took out a few coins and tossed them to the waiter,""But I bought a few clothes that were passed down by girls and boiled a bucket of hot water.”
"Alright, you go back to your room and wait for a while. I'll go now.”
Zhao Yu carried the little girl back to the room and placed her on the bed. He looked at her quietly.
The more Zhao Yu looked at this girl, the more familiar she looked. He was secretly delighted that he had really met her this time.
After a while, the young lady woke up slowly. She first looked at her surroundings and then saw Zhao Yu, who was cultivating with his eyes closed. She immediately felt relieved.
Zhao Yu seemed to have sensed that the girl had woken up and opened her eyes.
"You're awake. How do you feel?”
The girl opened her mouth, wanting to say something but could not. She could only gesture at Zhao Yu.
The girl's inability to speak gave Zhao Yu a headache, so he said,
"There's a bathtub behind the screen. There's hot water inside and there's clothes beside it.”
Zhao Yu planned to go out and buy some writing brushes and white silk. Since he couldn't speak, and he couldn't understand gestures, he could only communicate through writing.
He hoped that this little girl could read.
The young lady seemed to know that her gestures with Zhao Yu were useless, so she nodded obediently and walked behind the screen.
Zhao Yu was naturally not interested in girls who had not fully developed yet. He opened the door and walked out.
" It's you, thief!!"
As soon as Zhao Yu opened the door, he saw Gongsun Li looking at him with gritted teeth.
"Oh, if it isn't Eldest Miss Gongsun, what a coincidence.”
Gongsun Li snorted and ignored Zhao Yu. She turned around and walked downstairs.
At this moment, Jing Ke walked out from another room and was stunned when he saw Zhao Yu.
"It's Brother Zhao. You're also staying at this inn.”
"I didn't expect to meet twice in such a short period of time. It seems that it's best if we don't become enemies.”Zhao Yu joked with a faint smile.
Jing Ke understood what Zhao Yu meant and laughed out loud.
"Haha, Brother Zhao is right. If we really become enemies, then I probably won't be able to escape for the rest of my life. Since we're so fated, why don't we go down and have a drink?”
"It's good to have a drink, but I'm going out to buy some ink and brush.”
"Buy brush and ink? I do have some brush, ink, and white silk here. If Brother Zhao doesn't mind, you can just take them over and use them.”
Zhao Yu did not reject the offer. He wanted to communicate with the girl anyway, so it was fine as long as he could use it.
"This saves a lot of effort. Thank you.”
Zhao Yu and Jing Ke walked down the stairs and came to the table where Gongsun Li was sitting.
"Waiter, serve a few dishes and a pot of wine.”
When Gongsun Li saw that Zhao Yu had actually followed them down, she was already unhappy. When she heard that Jing Ke wanted to drink, she became even angrier.
"Senior brother, before you left Pu Yang, you promised master that you would never drink.”
Jing Ke's expression froze for a moment before he put on a fawning smile.
"Junior Sister, special circumstances require special treatment. Since we met Brother Zhao, we must have a drink.”
Gongsun Li knew that she couldn't win against Jing Ke, so she only grumbled a few words before glaring at Zhao Yu and turning her head to the side.
After a while, the waiter served the dishes and wine. Zhao Yu and Jing Ke also started drinking.
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked Brother Zhao. What are you here for this time?”
"Save them."
"Save people?"
"That's right, saving a lamb that has gone astray. What about you, Brother Jing?”
"This time, I'm here on my master's orders to participate in the Four Mountains Clan's Treasure Trading Convention in exchange for something.”
Zhao Yu did not ask what Jing Ke wanted to exchange for, but he was very interested in the Treasure Trading Convention.
"I'm quite interested in the Treasure Trading Convention, but how do I participate?”
