Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 325
Chapter 325 Make a Promise with One’s Body
On winter days, apart from being a little cold, the weather was pretty good.
Seventh Prince Zhou Jingrui and his adjutants wandered around the streets without stopping. Of course, most of them entered the pharmacy without stopping. Not long after entering, they came out as if they were looking for something.
However, Zhou Jingrui’s expression was extremely calm and elegant.
Because of this, he attracted the attention of many people.
Among them, there were a few people who kept looking at Zhou Jingrui. After taking a glance, they quickly retracted their gaze and followed behind Zhou Jingrui unhurriedly and unhurriedly.
It wasn’t obvious that such frequent attention was mixed with some people, but Zhou Jingrui could still feel it.
Zhou Jingrui’s expression did not change. He pretended that he did not know anything. He entered a restaurant with the adjutant. The two of them did not see a private room. They only chose a window seat in the lobby on the first floor and sat down. The adjutant immediately called the waiter to serve a few specialty dishes in the restaurant. Then, they respectfully stood beside Zhou Jingrui.
Zhou Jingrui saw a few people following him from the corner of his eyes. These people were all sturdy and sturdy, causing one to feel a chill all over their bodies. In addition, they were dressed like Jianghu people, causing others to retreat when they saw them.
Seeing this, Zhou Jingrui said to the adjutant beside him, “Zou Cheng, sit down as well.”
Zou Cheng thanked Zhou Jingrui respectfully before sitting down.
He saw a few strong men who had just entered the hall sweeping through the hall before walking to Zhou Jingrui. One of them was even more squeaky. “Hey, I’ve taken this seat. Move aside!”
Seeing that Zhou Jingrui’s eyebrows did not move, Zou Cheng understood what he meant. He coldly snorted, “Whoever comes first in this seat will sit first. Why should we give it to you?”
“This seat was first chosen by our boss. However, you guys were one step ahead and snatched it away. Naturally, I want you to give up!” The burly man chattered a few times, and his voice reached people’s ears, causing their hairs to stand on end unconsciously.
Zhou Jingrui suddenly raised his head and said without moving his eyebrows, “What if we don’t let him go?”
“Not letting him go is courting death!” The burly man snorted coldly and slammed the saber in his hand heavily on Zhou Jingrui’s face. Then, he turned the blade and turned towards Zhou Jingrui. The sharp saber light emitted an icy cold light under the sunlight.
Seeing that Zhou Jingrui was about to be hit by a knife, Zhou Jingrui’s body moved backwards in an extremely dangerous posture, avoiding the blade. As he flipped his wrist, a fan appeared in his palm. With a brush, the fan opened and a lot of poisonous needles flew towards the strong men. However, the strong men hurriedly brandished their knives and blocked the silver needles back.
A fierce battle was imminent!
The people in the restaurant immediately left one after another. The shopkeeper shouted for money while retreating. For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic.
The four strong men and Zhou Jingrui’s master and servant fought each other. Although the four strong men had the advantage physically, they were too big and had lost their flexibility.
Not long after, the four strong men were at a disadvantage. However, at this moment, a group of black-clothed men suddenly descended from the sky and joined the battle. They did not care whether the strong man was Zhou Jingrui or not. They killed whoever they saw. This ruthless look immediately made many people feel fear.
Not only that, but the martial arts of these people were also extremely good. Although Zhou Jingrui’s martial arts were high and powerful, he was unable to escape for a while. Instead, he had been hindered by the black-clothed man’s actions.
The battle on this side quickly passed into Yun Xiao’s hands. Yun Xiao finished reading the letter and burned it. Qing Mo respectfully asked, “Young lady, where do you want to buy it now?”
Yun Xiao shook her head, “Wait!”
Not long after, news came from outside again. After Yun Xiao received the letter, her brows furrowed.
Seeing Yun Xiao’s embarrassed expression, Qing Mo worriedly asked, “Miss, what happened to you?”
“Zhou Jingrui has been captured by someone,” Yun Xiao replied calmly, her expression slightly unperturbed.
“How could it be?” Qing Mo cried out in disbelief. Obviously, they had people staring at Zhou Jingrui. If Zhou Jingrui was captured and something happened, the Yun Clan would definitely not be able to escape the blame.
“Don’t worry, we’ve found our way and sent someone to keep an eye on us.” A refreshing voice suddenly came to mind from the roof. Immediately after, a moonlight figure jumped down from the beam and calmly sat down. He took out two teacups and poured two cups of tea. He handed one of the cups to Yun Xiao and the corner of his mouth slightly raised, “Do you want to have a drink with me?”
Yun Xiao did not expect that there was actually another person in the room. Even though she was stunned for a moment, when she heard who the owner of the voice was, her expression suddenly became embarrassed.
Turning around, he saw Rong Jin sitting calmly by the table. There was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. There was a trace of something else strange in his smile. He sat on the side with a teacup in his hand. He looked relaxed as if he was the owner of the room.
Yun Xiao looked at Rong Jin like this, and a trace of depression slowly arose in her heart. Her face was extremely embarrassed, “How could you be so casual?”
Even though she said this, Yun Xiao still sat down first.
Rong Jin waved his hand and smiled at Yun Xiao. Then, he said to Qing Mo, “You go down first and explain the matter. You must ensure the safety of the Seventh Prince.”
Qing Mo immediately bowed respectfully to Rong Jin, turned around, and left without even asking Yun Xiao.
When Yun Xiao saw this, her expression became even more embarrassed, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. “After today’s matter, you can take Qing Mo away.”
Rong Jin raised his eyes to look at Yun Xiao. He saw that Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with an unconcealable seriousness, “Why?”
“I would rather not be a person who doesn’t listen to my orders,” Yun Xiao’s words were not a joke at all. This was what she thought in her heart.
Although Qing Mo’s performance in all aspects was not bad, his heart was not for him. She would protect him now. It was all because of Rong Jin’s obedience. Once she and Rong Jin turned against each other, Qing Mo would mercilessly turn into a sharp blade that stabbed at him!
Regardless of whether such a possibility would appear or not, Yun Xiao did not dare to take the risk.
Rong Jin’s expression suddenly became a bit more thoughtful, as if he was thinking. Yun Xiao did not disturb him when she saw this.
At the end of Qing dynasty, she would not stay any longer. Based on the current situation, Qing dynasty must have noticed Rong Jin’s arrival and arranged for people to interfere in this matter. However, Qing dynasty did not tell her that he did not treat her as his master.
If Qing Mo was her person, then Qing Mo’s primary point of departure would be to think for himself. When he discovered Rong Jin, regardless of whether he was hostile or not, Qing Mo would remind him, or perhaps he would fight against someone with a sword in his hand.
Just such a thing, Yun Xiao could not tolerate it.
Yun Xiao took the tea from Rong Jin and took a sip. The smile at the corner of her mouth became denser and denser, but the smile was full of ridicule.
As time passed, Rong Jin did not make Yun Xiao wait for too long. He said loudly, “Since you mind so much, then Qing Mo will listen to your orders from now on. He is no longer a member of my Ten Directions Palace.”
Yun Xiao did not expect that Rong Jin would actually make such a decision. Even though she looked at him in disbelief, she said, “You …”
One of your words was spoken, but you were unable to say anything else.
However, for some unknown reason, there was already a faint joy in his heart. That joy came from the depths of his heart. In just a short moment, it entered his limbs and bones. It was very comfortable and intoxicating.
“Are you satisfied with this?” Rong Jin looked at the woman in front of him with a faint smile. A faint light appeared in the depths of his dark eyes.
Yun Xiao couldn’t help but nod her head, and then said, “But Qing Mo …”
“Don’t worry, she will be willing.”
Yun Xiao opened her mouth and only said one last sentence, “If Qing Mo is unwilling, then forget it. I can find a guard myself.” No matter what, she was unwilling to force Qing Mo.
Moreover, in a place like the Ten Directions Palace, it was said that no one was allowed to come out. If Qing Mo came out, he would surely suffer some punishment.
“Don’t worry,” Rong Jin called Qing Mo in after he finished speaking. Qing Mo entered the room and greeted the two of them. He stood obediently on the side and didn’t move.
Yun Xiao unconsciously sighed in her heart. Qing Mo was indeed a good person, but she didn’t know if she was willing to follow her. This time, she was different from last time.
However, Rong Jin did not have Yun Xiao’s worries. He coldly said, “Qing Mo, from now on, you are no longer a member of the Ten Directions Palace. Your master is only Yun Xiao.”
Qing Mo did not expect to hear such words. She raised her head in surprise, and her eyes were filled with a trace of surprise. Her iceberg-like face had a faint peculiarity. She first looked at Rong Jin, then at Yun Xiao on the other side, and then nodded, “Yes!”
After she finished speaking, she stood up and handed Rong Jin a piece of jade pendant hanging on her waist. She respectfully said, “Please take care of yourself, Master!”
Yun Xiao looked at the jade pendant and guessed in her heart that it should be the identity token of the Ten Directions Palace. Since Qing Mo had handed over the identity token, she was no longer Rong Jin’s person in the future.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, “Thank you very much.”
After accepting the identity token, Rong Jin put it on his waist and said, “You’re welcome. From now on, Qing Mo will only be one of Fourth Miss Yun. Fourth Miss can rest assured.”
Yun Xiao graciously said. Then, she waved her hand and let Qing Mo go down. Her palm-sized elegant little face already had a hint of joy on it, and the corner of her mouth slightly rose. “Since you gave me a big gift today, I also want to return it. Why don’t I …”
However, before she could finish her sentence, she heard a clear voice that sounded in her ears, “Do you agree to it with your body?”
Yun Xiao’s face flushed red. Her face was also pale and hot. She glared at him coquettishly, but her cheeks that were red with rouge looked different. “I just wanted to say that I would personally cook the food. Thank you very much,” she said.
“Is that so?” Rong Jin’s face didn’t seem to have changed at all, but his pair of eyes that looked like a fantasy seemed to be a little more gloomy. “Then, why don’t I make a promise with my body?”
These words were light and without a trace of weight, but they almost made Yun Xiao jump up from the chair in shock. However, Yun Xiao quickly stabilized her mind.
Yun Xiao looked at the man opposite her. Her eyebrows were so gentle that she could not tell if he was saying this out of intent or intention. However, she had to admit that when Rong Jin said that sentence, the heartstrings of her heart were indeed beating undetectable.
However, Yun Xiao had never forgotten Rong Jin’s identity, so she immediately said self-mockingly, “Young Master Rong, don’t mention this again in the future.”
She called him Young Master Rong, which was to distinguish the identities of the two of them once again. Even if the two of them had a night of dew, and even if Yun Xiao really liked him, the scene after she married into the royal family in her previous life had always been a thorn in Yun Xiao’s heart.
If that thorn could not be pulled out, it would only grow deeper and deeper.
