I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 120 Contest

"Brother Xiahou looks so tired, I guess he must have gone out to do something important, right?"

Xin Youran said with a smile and poured him a cup of tea.

Xiahou Rui was about to speak, but stopped himself. It was not convenient to reveal too much about official matters.

Seeing this, Xin Youran tactfully changed the subject, "I wonder what Master Qiu would say? Has he tried the ointment I made?"

"Don't worry, I'm always open to learning. If there's anything I need to improve, I hope you can give me some pointers."

Xiahou Rui was busy all day looking for Yuzhanxian's whereabouts on the day of her death, and he forgot about her.

"Look, I was so busy that I forgot to go to Master Qiu's house."

"I'll go and inquire about the situation tomorrow morning. If there's anything, I'll report to Brother Xin."

Xin Youran knew that this person was definitely not an ordinary person, and it was normal for him to be busy, so she just gave him a brief reminder.

"If Brother Xiahou is busy, could you please tell me where Master Qiu lives so I can pay him a visit? Even if I don't receive his approval, at least a few pointers would be of great benefit to me, Xin!"

This really put Xiahou Rui in a difficult position. It wasn't because he didn't want to, but the Master Qiu they saw that day was not the real Master Qiu!

Considering that Ye Bufan is a vegetarian who chants Buddhist scriptures all day long, it's rare to ask him for help. There should be some clues, right?

Maybe he went to Prince Ning's Mansion, but he hasn't been living there recently. Oh, how could he forget about this!

"Brother Xin, I have something else to do. I'll get back to you tomorrow."

Xiahou Rui ran out of Xin Youran's room as if escaping.

Afterwards, he ordered his men to go to the residence of the Minister of Revenue to look for Ye Bufan, and told him that if they needed to see him for something, they could come to the Yuemanlou Inn.

He really didn't dare to face Xin Youran at this moment. After giving orders to his subordinates, he walked downstairs alone. He had been busy all day and had not eaten much.

When he saw Leng Yue drinking alone, he walked over as if possessed.

He snatched the wine jug from her, took out a clean cup from the table, poured himself a glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

This series of actions made Leng Yue unable to react.

"Hiss, how can there be such sweet wine?"

Leng Yue's patience has reached its limit at this moment!

"You, come out here!"

Xia Hourui then realized that Leng Yue's attitude was not right, but he did not show any intention of apologizing. "I just drank a glass of your wine. I will pay you ten times the amount of silver!"

Leng Yue didn't want to be the focus because of the presence of other guests.

So he forcibly dragged Xiahou Rui out of Yuemanlou Inn.

He was dragged directly to a deserted place and thrown out. Fortunately, Xiahou Rui reacted in time.

"Miss Yue, what do you want to do?"

"It's a dark and windy night. I only drank a glass of your wine. That's not necessary, is it?"

"It's not proper for a man and a woman to be alone together."

Leng Yue didn't say a word, then took out her whip and swung it out.

Although he dodged in time, his hand was still hit by the whip and immediately became red and swollen.

No one has ever dared to whip him since he was a child!

"Are you serious?"

If he hadn't reacted in time, the whip would have hit him and torn his skin and flesh!

Leng Yue didn't want to waste time talking to him, and then the whip came from another angle, hitting him directly in the face.

Xiahou Rui no longer dodged blindly, but instantly turned on his piano and fan.

Then Leng Yue heard the sound of the zither. That sound could disturb people's minds. With her internal strength, she might be able to calm her mind, but the whip she pulled out was off target...

She had always thought that Xiahou Rui held a fan all day just to look cool, but she didn't expect that this fan had so much meaning.

I really underestimated him.

Seeing Leng Yue was about to swing the whip, Xia Hou Rui quickly said, "More?"

"Since you're a woman, I didn't give my all. I advise you to take care of yourself."

Leng Yue couldn't stand hearing others look down on her because she was a woman.

When it was raining, many men laughed at her and mocked her, but she beat them one by one until they surrendered.

I know that Xiahou Rui is as arrogant and boastful as him.

She used almost all her strength in this whip, but when she used her internal force to swing the whip, Xiahou Rui's fan had already shot out weapons like tiny flying needles before her.

It turns out that this fan has such a wonderful feature. She whipped it and hit the flying needle he shot out.

Xiahou Rui couldn't help but look at Leng Yue with admiration. Twelve flying needles were sent out, and very few people could miss any of them. Who was she?

He immediately perked up his nerves and waved the fan again. This time the sound was like a demon. Leng Yue actually felt that everything in front of her was shaking, and the more she used her internal force, the more painful it became. Her head felt like it was going to explode!

“Give that sound, and it will resonate with this.”

As his voice sounded, Leng Yue looked at Xiahou Rui with empty eyes as if he was possessed. Seeing this, Xiahou Rui thought, hey, it's done.

"Come to me."

Leng Yue "obediently" walked towards him until she was less than half a foot away from him, almost touching his nose.

This was the first time that Xiahou Rui looked into the eyes of a woman at such a close distance. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated and he became inexplicably flustered.

If he didn't stop, her head would probably hit his lips...

He didn't know why he didn't call a halt.

But the scene he imagined did not happen. Then he saw Leng Yue heard that, but blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth.

This woman is really crazy!

She actually had all her inner strength to counter his piano music!

"stop!"

He quickly retracted the fan, and then Leng Yue suddenly lost his strength, his body became limp, and he was about to fall to the ground.

Xia Hou Rui hurried forward and hugged the man, "Why are you so stupid!"

"How could I let anything happen to you!"

Leng Yue almost used up all her strength at this time and spat out two words, "Get out..."

At this moment, Xiahou Rui felt the softness and fragrance of the woman's body for the first time. It filled his senses and he inexplicably didn't want to let go.

Seeing Leng Yue in his arms like this, he still didn't forget to tell him to get out.

"Oh, I won't leave yet. What can you do to me?"

As he said this, he raised his hand with a smile on his face to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

"Looking at it this way, Miss Yue is so beautiful."

Leng Yue wanted to kill him at this moment!

But she couldn't muster any strength...

"I advise you not to force your internal energy. Be good and have a good sleep."

As Xia Hou Rui spoke, he picked up the person like a princess, and without caring about other people's eyes, he carried her upstairs and sent her to Leng Yue's room.
