Chapter 91: This Is Also Too ExaggeratingTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Prefectural Governor?
Lou Xingchen"s relative? Not going is also not a big deal!
Lou Qianxue did not say anything. She ignored Lou Jingfeng and left on her horse after receiving the invitation.
Lou Jingfeng was ignored from the beginning to the end. He felt he had lost face and became furious.
But after going through these confrontations a few times, he already knew that it was not easy to gain an upper hand over Lou Qianxue in a battle of words. Hence, he endured it and just glared at her fading figure.
He would bear with it again for the time being and wait for Lou Xingchen to defeat Lou Qianxue at the Prefecture compet.i.tion. After that, he would chase this wicked girl out of the house!
“Where are we going?” Lou Xiaoxiao was indignant. “Frankly speaking, Qianxue, I suspect whether you are City Lord"s biological daughter or not. Why does he treat you like this?”
“Who knows,” Lou Qianxue replied in a calm voice. She changed the topic and said, “Are you familiar with Liuyun Prefecture? Where do you want to stay?”
“I came with my grandfather once. I know that the biggest hotel here is called "Qingfeng Hotel". We stayed there the last time. But it is very expensive, and we can"t afford to—”
“Where is it?” Lou Qianxue asked her. “Let"s stay there!”
“Ah?” Lou Xiaoxiao froze. “A night there requires 1000 taels of silver. Do you have such money?”
The corners of Lou Qianxue"s mouth curled up. “I do.”
“Really? How much do you have?”
Lou Xiaoxiao suspiciously looked at Lou Qianxue. She remembered the last time when they had gone to the Alchemy Union, Lou Qianxue did not seem to have much money.
“I have a lot.”
“Are you sure?”
Lou Qianxue looked at her and did not speak.
Lou Xiaoxiao"s eyes gradually lit up. “Since you have a lot of money, then I shall not worry about your safety. Before going to Qingfeng Hotel, I"ll bring you someplace else to ensure your safety.”
“Huh?” Lou Qianxue frowned. “Where?”
“You"ll know when you reach there,” Lou Xiaoxiao said with a mysterious expression.
Lou Qianxue always acted unfathomably and left Xiaoxiao hanging in front of her. Hence, Lou Xiaoxiao was extremely pleased when she got the chance to do it instead.
Horse riding was not allowed within Liuyun Prefecture. Hence, the two of them got down from their horses and strolled.
Liuyun Prefecture was indeed a prefecture that had control over 30 cities. The city was 10 times bigger than Qingyun City. The streets were lined with shops bustling with excitement. Even in the evening, the stream of pedestrians was constant. Brilliant lights flashed everywhere.
“It"s so much livelier than Qingyun City.”
“This is Liuyun Prefecture!”
Lou Xiaoxiao pulled Lou Qianxue and pa.s.sed through many shops all the way. The way they took gradually became deserted, making Lou Qianxue more and more curious.
After a long time.
Lou Xiaoxiao finally stopped and smiled at Lou Qianxue. “We"ve reached it.”
Lou Qianxue raised her eyes and saw the words "Mercenary Guild" and was stunned. She covered her forehead and sighed. “The method that you mentioned to ensure my safety was getting a mercenary?”
This is too much.
Lou Xiaoxiao nodded in a serious manner. “Look at you. People tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate you twice. Someone must have wanted your life very badly! They have failed twice, but there definitely will be a third time, a fourth time… Hence, it"s necessary to hire an expert as a guard!”
Lou Qianxue looked helpless. With Mountain River s.p.a.ce, she wasn"t afraid of any a.s.sa.s.sins. However, she thought that since she had already come to the place, she might as well go in and see. It would also make Lou Xiaoxiao feel more at ease.
