Chapter 1468 - 1552: Red Dressed Zhusha, White-Clad Violet Mole
With more silver in her pocket, she felt more confident.
She planned to take some time today to buy some medicinal herbs and then get a set of knives suitable for performing surgery on herself.
After healing the shoulder, she would refine the Gu Poison. Hehehe... you rotten scum, you pervert, just wait and see when you’re clean!!
The little person in her heart made a throat-slitting gesture with a smug face.
Considering that "Helper Liang" was too determined, Ah Lian ultimately couldn’t persuade the other party to change their mind. She knew that forced things weren’t sweet, so be it; everyone has their own aspirations!
However, this person’s honesty and gratitude made Ah Lian admire him.
When Ah Lian returned to the inn from Food As Heaven, she saw several Hidden Guards reporting the recent situation to the young master.
Qinghe learned that two people died in the dark alley near the black market last night.
"Poisoned?" He slightly frowned.
The Hidden Guard immediately replied, "The two deceased were gamblers from the black market, who have been mingling there for a long time, with vile characters, notoriously bad."
What Qinghe cared about was not the identity of the deceased, nor their disposition in life, but the poison!
"Go ask Xiao Yi if there’s anyone in the city skilled in using poison."
"Yes!" The Hidden Guard received the order and immediately withdrew.
When Ah Lian entered the room, she saw that the window was open, with perfect sunlight outside, so she first put an outer robe on Qinghe before opening the window. She did not mention her attempt to recruit cooks at Food As Heaven, which ended in rejection.
She brewed a cup of tea for the young master, and just as she was about to bring the tea to him, she inadvertently glanced at the scenery outside the window, and Ah Lian frowned deeply.
Qinghe was looking over a scroll, glancing up in Ah Lian’s direction.
Ah Lian cleared her throat, "Young master, please rest for now. I will go arrange your meal for today." However, after leaving the room, Ah Lian headed straight out of the inn.
She quickly took two steps to catch up with the person.
"Xiao Qi!" She shouted angrily in a low voice, "Why aren’t you wearing red? Where’s Xiao Jiu? This white outfit should be on Xiao Jiu, make sure you don’t mix up the colors."
The person stopped in their tracks when Ah Lian called out.
This person was tall, clad in white like a fairy, appearing as though a God from the heavens had descended.
Initially, they had their back to Ah Lian, but upon hearing her, they slowly turned around.
Seeing the person’s face clearly, Ah Lian’s eyes instantly filled with anger.
"Where is your Cinnabar Mole!? A Cinnabar Mole, not a purple mole, this red mark is supposed to be in the middle of the forehead, not a purple mark at the eye corner!"
The purple mole at the man’s eye corner was cold and noble, completely different from the charming allure of Red Dressed Zhusha, and he had an expression as cold as frost from another world.
Ah Lian scrutinized such a person, Red Dressed Zhusha’s features already bore some resemblance to the young master, especially with that devil-may-care demeanor, more like the young master’s old disguise. But now this Hidden Guard "Xiao Qi" had a white attire change, resulting in an altered demeanor, and he resembled the young master even more.
However, Ah Lian was confused, as twins are often considered unlucky, and in many places, twins are drowned at birth, leaving a rarity of twins in the world. But they do exist.
Seeing the strange look in this unfamiliar woman’s eyes, Shu Yu, - receiving a message sent from the Capital, had rushed from Jiangnan and was passing through this town. His eyes exuded a trace of indifference. Yet, with a slight curl of his thin lips, his entire demeanor transformed instantly, retracting the cold fairy aura.
"I forgot, I got it mixed up."
