Chapter 57: Follow
Lu Sheng’s heart warmed at his words.
“There’s enough money. My father gave me a sum before he left.”
Naturally, she could not tell him what Chu Sihan had given her.
“That’s good!”
Li Zheng nodded. Then, he asked worriedly, “Are you going alone?”
Lu Sheng shook her head and lied. “No, I still have a few friends.”
“That’s good!”
Lu Sheng drank tea with Li Zheng for a long time. She only left after finis.h.i.+ng the entire pot.
She was afraid that she would not be able to finish dinner if she continued drinking.
After she reached home, Lu Sheng went next door to look for Aunt Yu. She told her that she was going on a long trip and asked her to take care of the garden, Lu Jiang and Lu Xin.
After agreeing, Aunt Yu instructed her to take good care of herself.
That night, Lu Sheng pa.s.sed the key to the house to Aunt Yu. She even said that there was rice and noodles in the kitchen, and that they could go ahead and cook them.
She even moved the meat and vegetables at home to the Liang family.
Lu Jiang and Lu Xin were not clingy. Hence, when she told them that she was going on a long trip, they did not say anything and only told her to come back earlier.
After finis.h.i.+ng her task, Lu Sheng entered town that night.
The town gate was closed, but it was not a problem for her.
After entering the town, she found an inn to stay in.
The next morning, she waited on the main road.
If Chu Sihan wanted to go to Lin Jiang Mansion, he had to pa.s.s through here. This was also the only way out of town.
She waited and waited. It was only late at night after she had eaten her three meals did she finally see a team slowly approaching.
With the dim light, she could clearly see the tall figure riding the horse.
He was wearing a green s.h.i.+rt, and his handsome face was expressionless. However, his eyes were alert.
Lu Sheng smiled. She turned around and hid behind a pillar. She waited till the carriages were some distance away and twenty black figures pa.s.sed by before she followed them casually.
She had the Imperial Sky Talisman, so it was only a matter of time before she caught up to them.
The twenty black figures behind did not seem to have good intentions.
However, she was not in a hurry to attack.
If Chu Sihan could not even settle these few people, he would be too weak.
Indeed, as soon as the carriages entered the forest, the men in black attacked.
However, they were all settled by Chu Sihan’s men silently.
Just like that, all the way until the sun rose, Chu Sihan and his men were obstructed by at least five groups of men in black.
However, they could not defeat Chu Sihan and his men.
It seemed like the journey to Lin Jiang Mansion would not be smooth sailing.
At dawn, Chu Sihan and his men stopped at an inn.
It seemed like he was preparing to rest.
Lu Sheng was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and white draper hat. She held a broken sword that she bought from the metal shop.
Her veil hat hid her face completely, and she was dressed like a heroine. When she entered the inn, she attracted a lot of attention.
“Waiter, bring some side dishes and a pot of wine.”
She shouted in a suppressed voice.
“Okay!”
The waiter acknowledged her and was about to leave.
As for Chu Yun and the rest, they stared at her expressionlessly with alert eyes.
They had just entered when this woman entered. They could not help but suspect that she was following them.
Chu Sihan’s sharp gaze swept over. However, when he saw that figure and unbridled sitting posture, he felt that she was somewhat familiar.
He stared at the figure and narrowed his eyes. Then, he laughed at himself.
Why would that person be there?
Why was she dressed like this?
Was he hallucinating after a sleepless night?
