Chapter 311: Hot Mountain Springs Villa 11
Gu Cheng sighed and said, “Why does Lu Yan have such an oddball of a friend?”
Qi Qingyao pouted with dissatisfaction and retorted, “How is it weird? It’s simply the pursuit of s.e.xual pleasure!”
Xiao Wuji’s expression turned dark. “Miss, you’re a lady!” The f*ck, he did not know if he should be impressed or speechless. She had quite the pair of b.a.l.l.s like Mo Yang did, though.
Gu Cheng watched the shameless woman with a bored expression. “Lu Yan probably is unaware of what you’re up to now, hmm?”
Qi Qingyao cast him a disapproving glance.
Xiao Wuji asked with mock ridicule, “That said, we’re a whole bunch of men here and you’re just one woman. Are you not afraid?”
“What’s there to be afraid of?” Qi Qingyao was actually a little scared on the inside. She might have heard too much. If these people decided to do away with her… but she could not say it.
Xiao Wuji got even closer to her. Right then, only a small distance of half a meter separated the two. He looked at her, his gaze sharp. “Aren’t you afraid that we’d do something to you?”
Qi Qingyao was about to speak when a silhouette barrelled over to them.
Immediately, the figure pulled Qi Qingyao backward a step.
Jiang Yeqian said to Xiao Wuji, “She’s a friend of Lu Yan’s. Show a bit of respect.”
Qi Qingyao clutched her forehead. Feigning calmness, she said, “I was just peeping in the baths and you guys started talking of killing, where’s the humanity? I’ve seen enough, everyone can go back to their baths then. Byebye~~~”
Xiao Wuji’s expression was dark—he no longer cared even if she looked a bit like Mo Yang. “You overheard our conversation, so you can’t be spared.”
When he spoke of a.s.sa.s.sination, Xiao Wuji naturally would not carry out such a deed himself.
Without a care for Lu Yan or Jiang Yeqian’s reputation, he immediately strode toward the door. “Somebody, catch her!” he barked.
Qi Qingyao looked at the guard who was about to come and tie her up, and immediately shouted at the top of her lungs, “Help, somebody, there’s been an a.s.sault!”
Si Jin was daydreaming outside the wall at the back. He only turned his head to look when he heard a sudden scream—but Qi Qingyao had disappeared quite a while ago.
Without hesitation, Si Jin immediately jumped inside along the back wall. With his speed… he had already rushed in front of Qi Qingyao before the guard even entered. He took the lead and protected Qi Qingyao, who was standing behind him.
The young man was like a beast. He bared his long, protruding teeth in front of the group of men. His gaze fierce, he said, “No one’s allowed to touch Sister or else, I’ll kill you all.”
Xiao Wuji’s eyes instantly narrowed. “Lad, you’ve got b.a.l.l.s.”
Jiang Yeqian watched this scene and spoke up in a timely manner, “Alright alright, she’s just a peeping tom. Why don’t you just let her go?”
The tips of Gu Cheng’s eyebrows surged to the top of his head. “We can’t let her go!”
“She was busy staring at Xiao Wuji’s naked body, what could she have heard?” Jiang Yeqian asked blandly.
Gu Cheng, “…”
Xiao Wuji thought for a moment then said, “Very well. We’ll let her go just this once then.”
Gu Cheng exclaimed, “Brother Xiao!”
Everyone else, “…!!”
Xiao Wuji smiled rather profoundly after pondering for a bit. “The little girl just took a peek at us in the bath, so what? We should feel touched.”
Jiang Yeqian, “…” Xiao Wuji clearly would not let the woman go—he just chose not to dispose of her today!
Si Jin picked Qi Qingyao up. Instead of using the door, he immediately jumped over the wall and left. Riding on his shoulder, Qi Qingyao looked at the snowy weather and lamented, “We should choose a day without a breeze the next time we peep at beautiful men in the baths.”
Si Jin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
In the men’s bath.
Xiao Wuji waited for the others to be done with their bath before he left for the changing area.
“Do we kill her afterward or…,” Gu Cheng asked Xiao Wuji.
Xiao Wuji replied in a low voice, “Since she’s a friend of Lu Yan’s, she will not be leaving Qingzhou City anytime soon! Check her background details and we’ll see.” If she was really someone related to Mo Yang, they would not be able to kill her! However, if she was not, they would wipe her out without a trace.
“You don’t have to trouble yourself with looking into her details. I have them here,” Jiang Yeqian said as he put on his clothes. Rather than letting them go round in circles, he decided to just give it to them. He believed that after they found out about her connection with Li Qinglian and Su Hexiao, Xiao Wuji would willingly stay his hand.
Xiao Wuji asked, “You do?”
“She’s very popular in Qingzhou City recently; the Jiang siblings know her too. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that half of the upper circles in Qingzhou City have heard of her! The Yulong Gang had long looked into every bit of information about her.”
