Su Qing’s expression darkened again, and his gaze toward Chu Jingfeng was filled with murderous intent.
“Miss, don’t misunderstand. I don’t want to take advantage of you. I want you to be alone and afraid that it’s not safe for you to live outside. There are many empty rooms in my house. You can kill me with a knife if I have improper thoughts about you.”
Seeing Su Qing’s anger, Chu Jingfeng quickly raised his hand and swore.
Su Qing ignored him and turned to leave, leaving Young Master Chu alone outside Old Master Zhang’s house.
Chu Jingfeng watched as she walked away, and the corners of his lips curled up. He placed his hands behind his back, and his eyes were deep and filled with wisdom. He looked like a completely different person from before.
Su Qing returned to the restaurant in Jiangnan and asked the waiter to bring out her big black horse. She led the horse along the bluestone road and went to the station she liked to rest.
When the deputy general saw that Su Qing had safely left the Zhang Manor, he followed her from afar.
Su Qing had already sensed that someone was following him, but she didn’t sense any ill intentions. It must have been Commander Yan, whom she had met in the restaurant, who had sent someone to investigate her.
Su Qing didn’t want to cause trouble, so she let them explore. They wouldn’t bother her if there were no problems with the investigation.
There was a two-story relay station by the roadside. It was built with mud bricks and looked a little like the inn in the Dragon’s Gate. Su Qing took a look but did not enter. Jianghu people mostly used this kind of relay station. She found it too noisy.
After walking for a while, she saw a rather imposing courier station. Although it was also built in the northern style, at least it had carved beams and painted pillars on the door.
Su Qing led the horse over, and a waiter immediately came out to help her lead the horse to the stable.
Su Qing entered, and the shopkeeper smiled as he welcomed her,
“Young Lady, do you want a superior or ordinary room?”
“Send a bucket of hot water to a superior room.”
Su Qing naturally wouldn’t stay in an ordinary room. The room was quiet, and the service was good.
“Alright, buddy, come over and bring the girl to room number three.”
The shopkeeper agreed with a smile. He turned around and ordered the waiter to take Su Qing to her room.
Su Qing was also a little tired. She didn’t sleep last night and had been on the road all day. She wanted to wash up and go to bed early.
When she went upstairs, she felt a pair of eyes that looked like hooks. Su Qing looked up and saw a man dressed in foreign clothes. He had a hooked nose and eagle eyes. He was lying on the second-floor railing and looking down at her. His eyes were like a hungry wolf seeing a sheep, wanting to swallow Su Qing alive. He was even staring at Su Qing’s chest unbridledly. His gaze made people feel uncomfortable.
Su Qing frowned slightly. When she passed by the man, she took out her handkerchief and threw it casually. The man thought Su Qing was flirting with him, so he walked over with a lecherous smile. However, he felt an itch on his body before he could touch Su Qing. He shook his body uneasily, and Su Qing walked past him expressionlessly.
“It’s so itchy, so itchy.”
The man rubbed his back against the pillar as if he wanted to scrape off the layer of skin.
The waiter couldn’t help but turn around to look at him. What was wrong with this customer? Seeing that Su Qing wasn’t curious, the shop assistant hurriedly chased her.
“Miss, this is Room 3. Do you want some refreshments? Please wait a moment. I’ll bring you hot water right away. The refreshments in this shop are quite good.”
“No need, just bring the hot water over.”
Su Qing interrupted him. She had just finished her meal and didn’t want to eat any more refreshments. Seeing that the girl was unwilling to talk nonsense, the waiter quickly agreed to leave and closed the door for Su Qing.
When the waiter went out, he saw that the official was stunned. Before, he was rubbing against the pillar. Now, he was lying on the ground and rolling back and forth. His hands were scratching his face and neck with all his strength. His face was covered in blood and looked very scary.
“Sir, are you alright?”
The waiter was so scared that he hurriedly asked the man. It would be troublesome if something happened to the customer at their relay station.
“Itchy, itchy…”
The foreign man scratched his face and shouted in the broken language of the Great Xia Kingdom. When he saw the waiter in front of him, he grabbed his leg and said,
“Save me, save me.”
The waiter was frightened and jumped back to avoid the man’s hand. Was this thing contagious?
“Sir, please wait a moment. I’ll call someone for you.”
The waiter didn’t dare to stay long and ran to the superior room the man wanted. There were three of them, and they booked two superior rooms.
“Sir, please go and take a look…”
The waiter knocked on the door of the two superior rooms and pointed at the man rolling on the ground.
“What happened?”
The two people discussing in the room were depressed when the waiter disturbed them. However, they ran over in shock when they saw their companion’s bloody face with scratches.
“Third brother, what happened?”
A forty-year-old man with a full beard and a very tough look helped the man rolling on the ground and asked him with heartache.
“Big brother…That woman gave…She poisoned me!”
The man pointed at Su Qing’s room and complained to his elder brother.
“Second brother, you look after the third brother. I’ll go and take a look.”
The bearded man called Second Brother over to look at Third Brother.
The man who was called Second Brother was a man in his thirties. He was tall and strong, like an iron tower. His skin was red and black, his eyes were big and black, and he had a full beard. He looked especially fierce.
He didn’t listen to his big brother and rushed to Su Qing’s room. He kicked the door open without knocking. His loud voice shook the sky like thunder in the clear sky.
“Who harmed my brother? Get out here!”
However, just as he finished shouting, he was sent flying by Su Qing’s kick. The tall, sturdy man was sent flying into the air and fell down the stairs.
Fortunately, his big brother reacted quickly and reached out to catch him just as he was about to fall.
“Big brother, that woman is very fierce.”
The second brother’s body was hanging outside the stairs. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he fell from such a height, he would break his leg even if he didn’t die. He shouted at his big brother, who was saving him.
The boss didn’t say anything and carried him up and placed him on the ground. When the waiter saw the second brother had been rescued, he wiped his cold sweat. He covered his wildly beating heart and held his weak legs. It was too scary. He almost killed someone.
The man, addressed as boss, looked at Su Qing’s door, his eyes as sharp as arrows. However, the enemy’s situation was unknown; they were in a foreign country. It would not be easy to clean up the mess. Eventually, he suppressed his anger and cupped his fists at the door.
“I don’t know how my younger brother offended Young Lady, wanting to poison him?”
” Ask him yourself; originally wanted to dig out his dog eyes, show mercy only with a small punishment, big admonition.”
Su Qing sat calmly in the room, her cold voice as if it was tempered with ice.
Boss paused momentarily and looked down at No. 3, rolling on the ground.
He knew his brother very well. What else could he do to anger a girl? The boss closed his eyes. It was not like there were no brothels. When would his brother change his dissolute habit?
No. 3 didn’t explain when his eldest brother glared at him. He hugged his leg and begged,
“Big Brother, save me and ask her for the antidote. I really can’t take it anymore.”
“Young lady, please hand over the antidote. We will mind our own business and write off today’s matter..”
