Chapter 670

Cheng Gui didn’t bring his servant girls and imperial bodyguards . That was quite unusual . He brought Ming Shu to walk along the river banks .





There were many people releasing river lanterns along the banks . The river lanterns floated on the water like stars in the sky . The entire river was lit up and seemed vibrant .

Ming Shu looked at the surface of the river . Her thoughts seemed far away .

Little Beastie popped its head out from Ming Shu’s sleeve . It tilted its head and reached out with its paws to pat Ming Shu .

“Watch out . ”


A bunch of little kids ran over happily . Cheng Gui pulled Ming Shu closer to him to prevent her from being jostled .

“What are you thinking about?”

Ming Shu eyes spun and the mysterious emotion in them disappeared . She stuffed Little Beastie back in her sleeve .

“Where are you taking me?” Ming Shu didn’t want to walk . The time it took to replenish energy was greater than the time it took to consume energy .

“Didn’t I say it already?” Cheng Gui said . “Walk with me . That’s all . ”

“What is so nice about walking?” It was all the same sights . She could just find a place to eat .

“Don’t you think that this beautiful scenery makes it very suitable for a date?”

Ming Shu shook her head . “Nope . ”

To her, beautiful scenery involved good food .

Of course, Cheng Gui didn’t understand this .


At this moment, he just wanted to strangle this crazy person who didn’t understand romance at all . Look at the other ladies . They were all so shy .

Can I change targets?

Cheng Gui suddenly turned . They were standing on a bridge . The river flowed below them and the river lanterns floated into the distance .





The man’s face was really handsome . The lights congregated in his dark eyes and formed a very beautiful image . His figure inverted in this scenery and it seemed really dreamy .

“Miss Liu, I don’t like to beat around the bush . I will just say it directly . ” Cheng Gui tried to make himself appear normal . “I like you, Miss Liu . I want to be with you . ”

“Why do you like me?”

Why? How will I know!

If it was not for the mission, why would I bother with an idiot like you!

“You don’t need a reason to like someone . When I saw you, I felt that we met each other in a past life before . I feel very happy when I see you and I want to be with you . ”

Spending half of my life alone so that I can like you when I see you .


This sentence suddenly appeared in Cheng Gui’s mind . He shocked himself .

He… liked her?

F**k, was he crazy?!

Cheng Gui sized up the lady in front of him . Although she was really pretty, she was not an extreme beauty . Her temper was not good and she would hit people whenever she felt like it . What was there to like about this person?

Yes!

It must be his mistake!

Cheng Gui cleared his thoughts . “Miss Liu, what are your thoughts? If you don’t like me now, you can try and interact with me for some time . You will definitely like me after that . ”

“You are so confident?”

“Of course . ” I have the money, the power, and the face . Why will I not be confident?

Ming Shu opened her mouth, but before she said anything, there was an uproar within the crowd .






“Woah! They are lighting Kongming Lantern over there . Let’s go over there quickly!”

“Really? Let’s go and take a look too . ”

Ming Shu was squeezed to the edge . The crowd rushed in a certain direction .

Because this happened suddenly, Cheng Gui was separated from Ming Shu . They were kept apart by the moving crowd . He didn’t know if he saw wrongly, but he felt that her eyes seemed gentle with a tinge of… love .

Cheng Gui looked at her carefully . The lady wore a faint smile and there were waves in her eyes . However, the emotions that he saw just now were not there .

It must have been an illusion due to the lights .

Cheng Gui didn’t get an answer that night . When the crowd dispersed, Ming Shu’s attention was captured by food .

He felt that she did it on purpose, but he couldn’t get angry and force an answer out of her .

Once the time passed, Ming Shu broke away from Cheng Gui and went to wait for Qin Ling at the city gate . However, there was no sign of Qin Ling even after she waited for a long time . The crowd was dispersing . She frowned .

[Qin Ling is with the male protagonist . ]


Ming Shu: “…” There is always someone trying to snatch my chef!


“Where?”

[Guest… this has nothing to do with you . ]

“How is this not my problem? This affects my future . ”

[…] Now, it has upgraded to a life issue? You are amazing, Guest .

The system pointed out a direction for Ming Shu instantly .

“I realize that you know quite a lot of things . ”

[Of course . ] The Harmony System was very pleased with itself . It didn’t realize that Ming Shu’s smile was a little eerie .





“Hey, are you okay?” Qin Ling shrunk in a corner and poked the person that was squeezed in with her . “Are they gone?”

The person seemed really uncomfortable . He spoke in a hoarse voice after a moment: “Don’t make a sound . ”

Qin Ling shut up . Her heart was still palpitating furiously .

Butterflies in her stomach?

Your head . She was just scared .

She met this person suddenly just now, and then she was being chased .

“Qingqing must be waiting for me now…” Qin Ling muttered .

At this moment, unsteady footsteps sounded . Qin Ling hurriedly cupped her mouth and didn’t even dare to breathe loudly .

“I saw them running in this direction . Why have they disappeared?”

“He is injured . They must not have gone far!”

“Split up and search…”

Qin Ling heard footsteps coming toward them . She even saw a tall shadow . In that instant, Qin Ling felt that her heart stopped .

Someone grabbed her wrist and dragged her out of the dark .

The air turned still .

The people that were attacking them froze on the spot . When they were rushing out, someone fell to the ground and panted heavily as though he was fighting for air .

But, he was not dead .

Qin Ling saw the figure that was being blocked by the man .

Ming Shu grabbed Qin Ling’s other hand . The man was stopped and looked at the person who just appeared .

He didn’t know if this person was a friend or foe . He was on his guard .

Ming Shu smiled . “Let go!”

Let go of my chef!

Who says you can touch her!

The man didn’t say anything . He swung his sword at Ming Shu .

“No!” Qin Ling gasped softly . She stood between the two of them . The tip of the sword was just a palm’s length away from her . Her face turned white . “This… this is my friend . ”

Ming Shu took the chance to attack the man and pulled Qin Ling over . “Hurry up and run . ”

Qin Ling trusted Ming Shu more so she followed and ran away with Ming Shu .

The man: “…”

The fighting sounds behind them got further and further away until they couldn’t hear anything .

The two of them only stopped when they saw people ahead of them .

“Hu, hu…” Qin Ling panted heavily . She turned and looked behind them . “Qingqing… that person… will be okay, right?”

“You still want to save him?” Ming Shu placed her hands on her hips . “You can’t even protect yourself . You will just be a burden if you follow him . You left so that he could run away faster, do you understand?”

Qin Ling: “…”

“I will not go back and save him . ” Ming Shu thought that as the female protagonist, Qin Ling was trying to be really kind . She waved her hand . “Go and save him yourself if you want to save him . ”

Qin Ling: “…” I never said anything about saving that person .

She knew that if she went back, someone as useless as her would just be more trouble . She was just worried that the man would die .

Ming Shu put down her hand and walked toward the village . “So hungry, let’s go back and have supper . ”

Qin Ling asked instinctively, “Are you not full from dinner?”

“I can still eat . ” I can do it!

“…”
