Chapter 257 I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving~
After this farce ended, Zhou Qing took Wang and temporarily separated from Ning Rongrong, treating the two as if they had just met by chance and had not known each other before.
The leader stood up along with his companions and the city gate guards only after Zhou Qing, Wang, Ning Rongrong and others had left.
"Brother, what should we do now?" A younger brother behind him shivered, "If we don't complete the city lord's order, we will have a hard time in the next period of time."
"Shut up!"
The leader was getting upset and scolded him. He was silent for a while. Seeing that there were more people around, he led his men away. "You split up and go to guard other city gates. Call a few patrolmen and disguise yourself to observe which city gate the pregnant women are going to go out from. When they are far away from Luoxing City, we will make them unconscious and enter from the west city gate at night. There are no lights there at night."
"Why don't you report it to the city lord first?"
"nonsense!"
The leader yelled, "Do you really want to be punished? The city lord won't just scold you verbally like I did!"
As for the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect's eldest daughter coming here...
The leader thought that the other party was just passing by and would not stay for long, so there was no need to worry about it - as a subordinate, he had to consider his superiors.
The man quickly shut up and dared not say anything more.
"Okay, hurry up and act. I'll go chat with the guards at the north city gate to prevent them from talking too much and spreading the news to the city lord." The leader sighed and began to make follow-up arrangements. "As for those people who watched the excitement before, they were all civilians and were far away. They didn't know what happened here and didn't dare to say anything in front of the city lord. It doesn't matter. Also, we must keep a unified story and say that the car broke down on the way. Pregnant women can also be easily injured, so we didn't come back until night. Do you understand?"
"yes, Sir!"
Everyone spoke in unison and was quite convinced of this leader.
the other side.
Ning Rongrong dismissed the Soul King and Soul Sect and asked them to continue hiding in the dark. She went around several alleys and walked to another street. Based on her martial soul's perception of the butterfly egg of the goddess of light, she found Zhou Qing again.
However, Zhou Qing waved at her, not wanting her to reveal that she knew him in front of Wang.
After arriving at Youhui's house, Zhou Qing found Youhui's maid: Xiaomei. Avoiding Wang's sight, he quietly handed over a hundred gold soul coins and said, "Please take care of this pregnant woman. She is from my hometown. She was tricked into coming here. I rescued her. She said that this place also needs help..."
After listening to Zhou Qing's explanation, Xiaomei said, "It won't take that much."
"It's okay. The rest is your tip. I just hope you don't tell anyone."
"OK then."
Xiaomei accepted the 100 gold soul coins, walked up to Wang with a smile, and said to her: "We are currently short of a cook. I wonder how good are your cooking skills?"
"Home-cooked meals will definitely be fine!" Wang said hurriedly. After all, cooking is much easier than taking care of children.
"Okay then, I'll arrange accommodation for you first."
Then, Xiaomei took Wang to the guest room. The soft bed, exquisite dressing table and quaint screen made Wang a little overwhelmed.
Is this where mediocre people live?
The city is so nice!
"The main reason is that we only have one owner here, so there are many vacant rooms." Xiaomei explained with a smile.
"Well, I'd better get familiar with the kitchen first." Wang was a little uncomfortable and wanted to work quickly.
But Xiaomei said, "No, the young lady is out with her friends. During this period, they should eat lunch and dinner outside. We usually just need to make breakfast."
"So easy?"
Wang smacked her lips and muttered to herself, "No wonder everyone wants to go to the city..."
After making sure that nothing would happen to Wang, Zhou Qing breathed a sigh of relief, quickly walked out of Youhui's compound, and found Ning Rongrong who had been waiting outside.
"I did you a favor. How are you going to thank me?" Ning Rongrong rolled her cunning eyes and giggled.
"How about I pledge myself to you?"
Zhou Qing teased.
Ning Rongrong stretched out her words, "How can you think about that kind of thing at such a young age? You are so shameless!"
"Then I'll treat you to a meal at the best restaurant in Luoxing City?" Zhou Qing negotiated.
"Well, let's go to Yingchun Tower!"
When Zhou Qing heard the three words "Yingchun Tower", he slapped his forehead and cursed himself for forgetting that Yingchun Tower was both a hotel and a restaurant.
[I hope I won’t meet Ning Fengzhi or Jian Douluo...]
However, the more people try to avoid fate, the more likely they are to encounter it.
As soon as I entered Yingchun Tower, I was greeted by two men.
A man in his prime, with an elegant appearance and dressed in a white robe, he was very attractive.
The other one had a head full of white hair, but his expression was indifferent, giving people a sense of sharpness.
"Grandpa Jian!"
Ning Rongrong happily threw herself into the old man's arms.
And a slight curve appeared on the old man's expressionless face, as if a touch of moss had grown on a stubborn stone that had not changed in thousands of years.
This person is none other than Jian Douluo!
However, when Sword Douluo's two gazes fell on Zhou Qing, they were extremely sharp, as if they had turned into two substantial swords, constantly drawing, carrying, lifting, blocking, hitting, stabbing, poking, collapsing, stirring, pressing, chopping, intercepting, and washing at him.
Zhou Qing could sense that Jian Douluo was using his mental power to coordinate with the fluctuations of his soul power to test his bottom line.
but!
You are a Titled Douluo, testing him, a one-ring spirit master, isn't that a bit too much?
"Meet Senior Jian Douluo."
Zhou Qing bowed his back and clasped his fists in salute, not hiding the fact that he knew the other person.
In front of such a strong man, no matter how deep your mind is, you will reveal all kinds of flaws due to the pressure of his powerful strength, thus making the other party unhappy.
In this case, it is better to be sincere.
"Oh? You know me?"
Although he asked this question, Jian Douluo was not surprised.
"I study at Notting College. After class, my teacher has explained to students like me the well-known forces on the continent." Zhou Qing stood up and looked directly at Jian Douluo. "Just like you, Jian Douluo, handsome, suave, talented in both literature and martial arts, and unrestrained..."
Jian Douluo's eyes became strange.
The first half of the sentence answered his question directly, but what about the second half? Was it just flattering himself? Wasn't this style a bit too out of line?
Jian Douluo, who had long been immune to these things, interrupted hurriedly: "You are so young, where did you learn these things? You can't be Rongrong's friend like this!"
"Hey--"
Zhou Qing sighed, covered his face and cried, but there were no tears, "It seems that I am marrying too high..."
As he said this, Zhou Qing retreated calmly until he reached the door, then he showed a very awkward smile and said, "Then~ I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving~"
Jian Douluo: “…”
