Chapter 2465 Oh Heavens (3)
Yes! From the manager"s tone, Leng ruoxue could tell that he was gloating over her misfortune. This made her slightly curious. As the fire of gossip burned in her heart, Leng ruoxue could not hold it in any longer and asked directly,""Shopkeeper, are you gloating? The city Lord"s mansion has been destroyed, and the city Lord is injured, but you seem to be quite happy!"
Even though Leng ruoxue"s voice was not loud, it still caused the innkeeper to break out in cold sweat. With a pale face, the innkeeper said in fear,""I didn "t! Sir, you can"t wrong me like this. If the people of the city Lord"s mansion heard this, I"ll be in deep trouble. "
"You don"t have any? Innkeeper, I don"t lie in front of a wise person. I can see that you are very excited. Actually, when I first heard this news, I didn"t hide it from you, I was also quite happy!" Leng ruoxue tried to entice him.
"Really?" Seeing that Leng ruoxue did not seem to be lying and was an outsider, the manager was no longer afraid. It was as if he had met a soulmate as he began to pour out his grievances to Leng ruoxue.
"Your Excellency! To be honest, I detest the city Lord of Chuan city! This guy was really not an ordinary black-hearted person. It"s reasonable to say that although our shops belong to the Lu family, they don"t completely belong to us. Aside from the amount of money we have to hand over to the family every year, the rest of the money belongs to us. With such motivation, we"ll naturally do our best to run the shops, but this black-hearted city Lord has ordered that after we hand over a certain amount of profits to the family, we have to give them half of the remaining profits. In this way, we"ll naturally have nothing left of the profits we earn every year. " The shopkeeper complained.
"That"s not all! In addition to giving half of the remaining profits to the black-hearted city Lord, our city Lord"s daughter and the city Lord"s guards will also have to come here from time to time to take advantage of us. How could we dare to not give them! But if we give it to them, we"ll have to live on air! AI!" The innkeeper continued, sighing as he spoke.
If it wasn"t for the incident at the city Lord"s mansion, he would have been extremely pleased. In addition, Leng ruoxue had taken the initiative to ask, so he really wouldn"t have dared to pour out his grievances so easily!
"Right, by the way, I"d like to remind you that our city Lord likes beautiful women, and his daughter likes beautiful men. So, Sir, it"s best if the beautiful men around you don"t go out during the day, otherwise, if the city Lord"s daughter encounters them, I"m afraid it"ll be bad! As for the city Lord, there was no need to worry about him now. In the future, when I meet a beautiful woman, I"m afraid I"ll be powerless!" The shopkeeper became more and more excited as he spoke, and the expression on his face became more and more vulgar.
When Leng ruoxue heard these words, she glanced at the expression on the manager"s face and felt helpless.
AI! This was probably a silent resistance by adding insult to injury after being oppressed for so long!
"Thank you, manager. We will be more careful." After some thought, Leng ruoxue finally spoke. In reality, she really wanted to tell the head that he had reminded them a little too late. They had already met the city Lord"s daughter yesterday, but ...
Leng ruoxue was afraid of scaring the shopkeeper, so she swallowed her words back into her stomach.
Faced with the kind shopkeeper, Leng ruoxue and the rest could only put on an act and agree to stay for a few days until the city gates were unsealed.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. These people living here meant that his income would increase again. The innkeeper, who was in a good mood, sent his parents back to their room and left.
Upon entering the room, Leng ruoxue suddenly frowned. With a change of thought, an extremely disheveled man appeared in front of them.
When the man came out, he wasn"t mentally prepared at all, so he fell from the air and landed on his back.
"Xue "er, you"re not gentle at all." Cheng mu got up from the ground awkwardly and complained in a low voice.
"You want me to treat you gently?" Leng ruoxue asked with a smile as she squinted her beautiful eyes.
As soon as he said this, Cheng mu immediately felt a chill down his spine. He shrank his neck and waved his hands.""No need! No need! This is good!"
Wu...This is too much of a bully! Cheng MU"s face was full of tears. People without a backer were so sad!
"You"re tactful. " Leng ruoxue nodded her head in satisfaction and continued,"from now on, you"ll be by the demon"s side!" He"ll teach you a good lesson!"
"Why?" Hearing this, Cheng mu wailed. Wu ... He didn"t want to be by that violent man"s side! He would be played to death! The other party"s ecstatic kick had left a deep impression on him! So, he was determined not to stay by that man"s side! He still wanted to live for a few more years!
After thinking for a while, Cheng mu said with a charming face,""Xue "er! I"ll just stay by the great elder"s side and do some odd jobs for him, I"ll be satisfied!"
Of course, it would be even better if he was served well by the great elder and the old man was happy to take him as a disciple or something! However, he only dared to think about it in his heart. He definitely did not dare to say it out loud in front of Leng ruoxue. Otherwise, if this woman thought that he was trying to poach her, he would probably die without even knowing how he died.
"Oh, really? It"s a pity that the great elder thinks you"re too noisy and doesn"t want you to disturb him. " Leng ruoxue threw out this fact calmly and immediately made Cheng mu feel dizzy.
This ... This was impossible! How could the great elder hate him? He had used all his strength to please that old man! Even if the old man was giving face to his ancestor, he shouldn"t hate him, right?
Cheng mu was puzzled. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.
Jealousy! It was definitely jealousy! Leng ruoxue must have been jealous of his good relations.h.i.+p with the first elder, so she had intentionally broken them up. That must be it! Cheng mu thought that he had found the reason why Leng ruoxue did not allow him to be with the great elder. The way he looked at Leng ruoxue instantly turned resentful.
When Leng ruoxue saw this, she could not help but feel embarra.s.sed.
What was this guy trying to do? Why did she feel that Cheng mu gave her the feeling that she was the evil person who had broken up a pair of lovebirds? Although Leng ruoxue did not quite understand Cheng MU"s current thoughts, she had two little secret agents!
After Cang and Qing Jue told Leng ruoxue about Cheng MU"s thoughts, Leng ruoxue felt helpless. She really did not know what to say about Cheng MU"s overthinking.
At this time, she really regretted listening to the great elder"s words yesterday and moving Cheng mu, who had been abandoned on the ground, into the mobile house. Thinking of this, she simply moved the great elder out of the house.
The first elder was eating breakfast. He was holding a half-eaten snack in his hand and his mouth was full. When he was suddenly moved out, he was stunned for a while before he realized that his image was not good.
The first elder quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a slight dissatisfaction,""Girl, I"m eating! Can"t you wait until I"m done eating?"
"I can"t wait! This guy wants to stay by your side and serve you. " Leng ruoxue pointed at Cheng mu, who had been looking at the first elder with love in his eyes ever since the first elder came out.
When he saw Cheng MU"s expression, the great elder felt disgusted. Then, he pulled away from Cheng mu with a look of disgust and said angrily,""Girl, keep this guy away from me. Otherwise, don"t blame me for not considering our friends.h.i.+p!"
When Leng ruoxue heard this, she laughed in her heart. On the other hand, Cheng MU"s face was ashen. Wu ... How could the great elder hurt people like this? Didn"t they get along well last night?
Thinking back to last night, when Cheng mu had just woken up, the first person she saw was the great elder of the armament Guild headquarters. At that time, the great elder was so gentle and considerate! Although the other party kept saying that he was taking care of him because of his ancestor, he was still quite grateful.
Later, he suddenly remembered that this somewhat familiar old man in front of him was the great elder of the craftsmen"s Guild headquarters. He was overjoyed and stuck to the great elder"s back like a dog trying to please its master. In the beginning, didn"t the great elder praise him for being polite and knowing how to respect the elderly? Why did you change your face so quickly?
This person was definitely not the gentle great elder from yesterday! Right! This person was not the great elder. The great elder must have been switched by the bad person, Leng ruoxue! The more Cheng mu thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible. Because he really couldn"t believe that someone could change their att.i.tude so quickly and make him so confused.
Cheng mu thought that he had always been very careful and had never offended the great elder. Therefore, he really felt that the great elder should not despise him so much! Sob ... This would make him sad!
At the thought of this, Cheng mu immediately glared at Leng ruoxue with a face full of hatred. He had wanted to roar at Leng ruoxue with a high-spirited aura, but at that moment, the face of the terrifying man from yesterday suddenly appeared in his mind, causing his entire aura to wither before he could even do anything.
However, he still bravely pounced towards Leng ruoxue.
"Wu ... Xue "er! How can you treat me like this? You found me a fake great elder to fool me, do you think I"m stupid!" Cheng MU"s face was covered in tears. She cried and fell to the ground. Her hands were still hugging Leng ruoxue"s ankle tightly.
This scene caused most of the people in the room to be dumbfounded. Leng ruoxue was speechless, helpless, and helpless. As expected, the demon"s face darkened.
She really didn"t learn! The evildoer was furious and walked straight in Cheng MU"s direction. Uncle long and the others who were frightened saw this scene and unconsciously made way for the evildoer ...
