Chapter 116 The Double Standard
"What are you going to eat, you vixen?"
Fang Duobing rushed into the Lotus Pavilion, where Li Lianhua was leisurely reading a book.
Fang Duobing happily shared this with Li Lianhua.
“Li Lianhua, you said before that my father’s death might be related to what he did before he died. I found out that he used to have four capable henchmen named Four Tigers Silver Spears.”
"Of them, Erhu has already died in battle, and the whereabouts of Yihu are unknown. Only Liu Rujing is said to be working as a bodyguard in Majiabao, Fengzhou, which is not far from here."
"Since it's not far from here, why haven't we seen Xiao Zijin getting married?"
Li Lianhua took a moment to answer Fang Duobing's question.
"Back when Si Gu Men broke up, it is said that he had a strong prejudice against Xiao Zijin."
"Looks like we should make a trip too. How are you feeling?"
"My injuries have long since healed, and since I've been practicing the Suzhou Fast technique you gave me, I feel that my internal energy has become somewhat stronger. It's truly a great technique."
"Would I give you anything bad? If you're alright, let's get going."
"Let me offer my opinion."
Wu You brought out several cups of homemade milk tea from the kitchen and placed them at the two seats.
"What opinion do you want to express?" Fang Duobing took a thin bamboo tube from the tray and sipped it.
"I agreed to come out before because of the Yuanbao Manor incident. Now that things have been settled there, I should go back."
"Why would you go back? We've been adventuring together in the martial world, solving cases everywhere. We worked together quite well last time, so why would you want to go back?"
Fang Duobing stopped drinking his milk tea and stared straight at Wu You.
"Youyou, do you find this journey boring and want to go back?"
Li Lianhua finally put down the book in her hand.
"It's quite fun." After all, you can immerse yourself in watching the show, a privilege that even the VIP members don't have.
Why is that?
“You have your own things to do, and I can’t help much by going with you. I’m also worried that I might disrupt your plans. The courtyard is more peaceful and comfortable.”
"I won't bother you, and I won't worry."
Fang Duobing didn't want Wu You to leave, and he tried to avoid touching Li Lianhua's cooking as much as possible.
"Youyou, you're so kind. You always help us unexpectedly. It's so much fun playing with you. Can you please not leave?"
Li Lianhua held Wu You's hand, her eyes fixed on her.
Pulled along by Li Lianhua, with Fang Duobing watching intently from the side, Wu You blushed. He tried to pull away, but Li Lianhua held him tightly.
"let me think again."
Wu You's voice was as low as a mosquito's buzz. He couldn't be seduced by Li Lianhua's charm. If he agreed, he would have to follow them all over the country.
"Wu You, what are you thinking about? Along the way, you've solved cases, traveled around, seen many picturesque places, and heard many epic stories. Isn't that great?"
"I want you to stay." Li Lianhua smiled slightly at Wu You and winked at him.
"Okay, I'll stay." I'll agree to anything you ask.
With just six words from Li Lianhua and a smile, Wu You instantly lost his principles and direction.
He winked at me.
Hearing Wu You's answer, Li Lianhua, out of Wu You's sight, revealed a satisfied smile. She already knew Wu You's personality pretty well.
Fang Duobing watched in amazement. Just moments ago, Li Lianhua had sworn she wouldn't go, but the moment she said, "I want you to stay," she immediately agreed. What a hypocrite!
I tried to persuade them myself, but it didn't have this effect.
