Chapter 1588: Chapter 595: Wangyou Island’s Eldest Miss (Part 2)
Wei Ziyi’s face suddenly turned red, wanting to step back two steps, but found her hands and feet powerless, she just said softly:
"You mustn’t mess around... Sister Xiao Yun hasn’t decided yet."
"..."
Su Mo didn’t know how to respond to these words.
He gently shook his head and let go of Wei Ziyi.
Wei Ziyi immediately began to act arrogantly again:
"Then you say, why are you inviting her for a stroll together later?"
"What do you think?"
Su Mo gave her a sideways glance: "Your little brain is undoubtedly clever, but why does it become confused whenever other women are involved?"
"Whenever other women are involved..."
Wei Ziyi was suddenly flustered: "When did I?"
"Still arguing?"
Su Mo casually poured a cup of tea, the tea warm, evidently replaced regularly; he checked the cup for poison before taking a sip:
"Outside Tianqu City that time, we encountered people from Jile Heavenly Palace.
"Even you lost your composure...
"Now with this Xiu Niang, you quickly told her you’re a lady.
"Afraid others would snatch your meat like."
"I... I..."
Wei Ziyi’s lips trembled, finally sitting gasping opposite Su Mo:
"Wasn’t I worried you’d make a mistake? After all, your youthful folly is well-known...
"Moreover, people like them are extremely astute, my disguise may trick ordinary people, but it can’t fool people like them."
"So, it’s just an unexpected hit."
Su Mo smiled:
"Now they probably think we’re young Jianghu enthusiasts coming to admire.
"Young men and women here for some novelty, while chatting and romancing.
"That’s quite good... After lunch, I’ll probe them for clues.
"Our business here should not be delayed.
"We can’t keep Sister Xiao Yun waiting — find traces, and plan as soon as possible; that’s the best strategy.
"But to avoid mistakes this afternoon, I’m afraid we’ll have to spend some money."
"Anyway, now you’re wealthy, as long as they don’t recognize your identity, the rest doesn’t really matter."
In this matter, Wei Ziyi doesn’t feel as deeply as Yang Xiaoyun, like Su Mo does.
Yang Xiaoyun manages well; she knows precisely how to spend each penny.
Never oversaving, never wasteful where spending is necessary; yet never extravagant, unwilling to overspend where unnecessary.
Despite Wei Ziyi experiencing danger since childhood, Wei Ruhan never withheld anything from his granddaughter.
Silver was spent lavishly, never knowing what heartache was.
Su Mo glanced at her for a while, sighed:
"Squandering women..."
His words left Wei Ziyi unsure whether to be happy or angry.
In the end, she merely glared fiercely at Su Mo and let it go.
While the two chatted idly in the room, Xiu Niang was in another part of the inn, writing with a brush.
The handwriting was delicate, the content concise: No suspicions for now, seems like an aristocratic young man experiencing Jianghu, flirting.
After completing the note, she gently knocked on the window twice, someone outside opened a small gap, Xiu Niang handed out the note, that person took it and left.
Only then did Xiu Niang gently exhale:
"Young men and women, truly enviable.
"That girl evidently hasn’t experienced the world...
"Helping this esteemed guest fulfill his wish, in the afternoon, I must make him spend a fortune!
"Not in vain for playing the fool.
"Hmm... ah, I wonder how the Island Master thinks, stirring such unrest on the island.
"Otherwise, why be so cautious, needless added affairs, vexing."
...
...
Su Mo didn’t spend much time on that meal.
After eating, the three did indeed find Xiu Niang again.
From then on they strolled leisurely around the island.
This island had everything; they first went to the Divine Workshop to see those divine weapons.
Although said to be divine weapons, nothing really caught their eyes.
But they were intrigued by materials used in weapon forging.
These things were inconvenient to bring along, ending in a disappointing return.
Then they visited Miao Shou Hall.
Inside were many marvelous pill prescriptions, and elixir sales.
Su Mo’s knowledge on prescriptions and elixirs was limited, but some ingredients heard occasionally from Little Situ’s mentions, he bought a lot.
It was quite an expense.
In Zhu Yu Building, Su Mo bought some things for Yang Xiaoyun, along with a piece for Wei Ziyi.
Wei Ziyi couldn’t help but beam with joy, while Su Mo watched his thinning wallet, feeling a bit toothache.
This lifted Xiu Niang’s mood considerably.
Upon exiting Zhu Yu Building, they heard shouts on the street.
Urging people to quickly move to sides.
Su Mo was stunned, pulling back Wei Ziyi and others.
Looking up, they spotted a soft sedan chair, carried by eight experts, approaching.
The soft sedan was sheer, inside sat a lady.
The lady’s face was veiled in white silk, her specific appearance unclear.
However, upon seeing her, all those with Wangyou Island badges, including Xiu Niang, bowed in salute.
Su Mo, however, felt this lady’s eyebrows were somewhat familiar.
Just a brief glance, unable to recall who she was.
Surprised, the sedan chair already moved far.
Only then Xiu Niang stood, Su Mo glanced at her, casually asked:
"Who was that just now? Quite a setup? Could those eight carrying the chair be someone significant on the island?"
