"I'll give this Gongzi some advice. Every single one of this bandits here have stained their hands with human lives. If Gongzi were to show them mercy, many more innocent people will suffer at their hands in the future." The masked man seemed to have waved his sleeve gracefully before the two bandits — who were charging at him with their swords — fell weakly onto the ground, their faces turning pale in an instant and blood streaming out of their seven apertures in their heads as they died.
"You..." Seeing the man poison those bandits to death by simply waving his sleeve lightly, Shao Qian's face couldn't help but change. Who exactly was this man? Had he been introduced in the story?
"This Gongzi, why don't you travel around this wide world with me?" The masked man took a few steps towards Shao Qian.
"Don't come over." Shao Qian hastily retreated. "You and I are strangers, therefore I'll leave."
When the man heard the person who he had taken a fancy to, say that he wanted to leave, he immediately became displeased. His body moved nimbly, blocking Shao Qian's path. "This Gongzi, those words really hurt my heart."
"..." This person was so skillful in martial arts. How did the plot not introduce him? Though the original plot didn't have a masked person either.
The masked man was also at a loss. He had believed that his poison technique was unparalled in the world. However, his poison actually didn't have any effect towards this charming Gongzi in front of him. He had already used anout a dozen incapacitaing agent on him, yet he still wasn't unconscious. If his teacher were to know about this, his teacher would definitely say he had brought him dishonour.
However, the longer this went on for, the more he became interested in this Gongzi. Bow about bringing him back and using him to test his poison? The more the masked man thought of it, the more he believed that the idea was plausible.
Shao Qian had the impulse to facepalm. Where exactly did you come from? Can't you go back yourself?
But it was obvious that this masked man had no such intention of going back by himself. In this manner, the two of them stood on the pile dead bodies, both of them refusing to budge.
"You're killing so obviously under the Heavens once again." In the midst of them refusing to relent to one another and staying still, yet another person appeared.
Shao Qian was about to go crazy. What was it with today? Why did they start to — unfortunately — come out one by one? He still hadn't settled this masked man before yet another one came.
"Tsk, it's actually this nuisance again." Since the masked man was standing opposite Shao Qian, he was naturally able to see the appearance of the person who had just arrived. Letting out a cold snort, he turned around and left.
Shao Qian was speechless as he watched that person leave agilely. What did you see for you to be scared to such an extent?
He turned around to see a young man staring angrily at him. However, when the man saw Shao Qian's face, he went into a daze instead. After that, his face rapidly blushed red and his right hand couldn't help but place the sword he was holding onto his back.
Seeing this foolish behaviour, Shao Qian had nothing to say. Other than that thing... He couldn't be anyone else right?
It's just that, he wasn't even able to speak before he saw the person in front of him disappear with a flash. Immediately after that, he felt a burst of pain on his neck and he lost conscious. The moment before he lost conscious, he only had a single thought in his mind: You wait for this Lord!
However, he wasn't even able to speak, before he saw the person before him, disappear in a flash. And after that, he felt a painful sensation on his neck, before he lost conscious. The moment before he lost conscious, he only had one thought in his mind: Wait for this me, your father! [2]
Placing the unconscious man into his embrace, he scanned the surroundings surrepitiously. After seeing that there wasn't anyone else alive, he carried the man away.
Placing the unconcious man into his embrace, he surreptitiously scanned his surroundings. After seeing there wasn't anyone alive, he carried him away.
His mother had said: If he saw anyone he liked, then knock them out and bring them home first. Otherwise, that person may be snatched away by others.
The people hidden in the horse shed witnessed the entire incident. However, which one of them had the ability to stop the man who took away their benefactor? Remembering that previously, there had still been one more bandit who left to ambush others for more money, these people didn't dare stay in this place filled with the dead any longer and hastily left the mountain stronghold.
First of all, let's not mention how those in the Lu family's compound felt when they saw their Young Master carrying someone back. When Shao Qian woke up, he saw a person lying next to him on the bed whilst laughing foolishly and immediately felt like hitting someone out of anger.
"You're awake!" Lu Ao scratched his head and laughed foolishly. "My name is Lu Ao and from this day onwards, I am your husband."
These words spun around in Shao Qian's mind for a few moments, before he raised his claw and struck that thing's head. "Scram for me, your father."
Seriously. Three days without a beating, and a child will scale the roof to rip the tiles. Nothing could be done if he didn't remember about him, his father. However, right now he had actually acted immediately and captured him. His ability really grew.
"Don't be angry." With a pitiable appearance, Lu Ao grabbed Shao Qian's hand. "I… I didn't mean to take advantage of you. When… When my parents return, we will perform the marriage ceremony."
Did you ask the person you captured if he would be willing though? Once again, Shao Qian felt a pounding pain in his temples. Ever since he met this thing, he felt like the frequency of him frowning had increased.
"Did you find me pleasing to the eyes, and thus captured me back?" Shao Qian felt like it was his job to treat this illness of his.
"Am I that kind of person?" Lu Ao felt wronged as he clutched Shao Qian's hand. How could his beloved person misunderstand him?
His mother had said: When he meets his fancied person, bring them back first. Otherwise, they would be snatched away by others and he would regret it.
Shao Qian held his forehead weakly. In every world, it seemed like his partner would unlock a new trait. This really made him hard to predict. However, in the last world, he was able to dream of him. Yet in this world, did he not have any signs?
Shao Qian felt like he overlooked something important. But as the system wasn't complete, he wasn't able to figure out the entire story right away.
When Lu Ao saw him sitting on the bed and remaining silent for a long time, he immediately became anxious. "You… You need to believe me. My mother said: A man needs to be faithful to his spouse to the very end, and not split his heart between three wives and four concubines. Otherwise, she would beat me to death."
Shao Qian naturally wouldn't believe this thing would have three wives and four concubines. And if he ever had any thoughts about it, then he would personally smash him into his cradle. [3]
"Release my hand first." The hand that was grabbed was already throbbing in pain. Was it really necessary to use that much strength?
"Oh." Lu Ao let go of his beloved person's hand and sat on the edge of the bed, looking pathetically at him. "I really will treat you well. My mother will also treat you well."
Seeing his appearance, Shao Qian couldn't help but want to tease him. "You don't feel anything wrong with two man being together?"
"What's not right?" Lu Ao was clueless. "My mother said that it's fine so long as I fancy them."
When Shao Qian heard those words, he burst out into laughter. The one in this world was somewhat foolish, but it was a adorable kind of foolish. This sort of slow-wit could honestly surpass that of the regent's.
Upon seeing Shao Qian laugh, Lu Ao's entire being lit up. He also followed along, his mouth forming a grin as he laughed. "You look very nice when you're laughing."
Seeing Lu Ao's appearance, Shao Qian was also quite happy. He kicked Lu Ao, making him move away. "Don't get so close to me. Let me down."
"Oh." Lu Ao stood up obediently. At the moment, he was somewhat embarrassed as he fiddled with the jade pendant hanging on his belt. From time to time, he would also look at Shao Qian from the corner of his eyes.
Seeing his behaviour, Shao Qian felt somewhat indisposed. After all, he had just parted with the shameless regent. And now, his partner had changed his personality once again — into this simple and sly beast. [4]
"I'm hungry. Go and make something to eat." Shao Qian sat next to the table and tilted his chin up towards Lu Ao. "Something light will do."
"Okay, I'll prepare it immediately." The moment Lu Ao heard he was hungry, he turned around and left. However, just as it looked like he was about to step out of the doorway, he stopped abruptly and retraced his steps.
At first, he assumed that he had forgotten something. Who would've known that this thing would raise his hand and strike his acupuncture points instead? After that, he was carried and placed onto the bed once again. "D-Don't be angry. I'll return quickly."
Shao Qian really felt like he was a dog today. This thing feared that he would escape to such an extent?
Lu Ao was really afraid that he would escape. Placing the man onto the bed, he covered him with the blanket properly, before rubbing his nose as he laughed foolishly. "I'm off."
"Hurry up and scram." Shao Qian simply felt unbearably irritated. He really wanted to hit someone.
Lu Ao smiled apologetically and left. After closing the bedroom door behind him, his expression completely changed. Where was that simple-minded apperance in front of Shao Qian?
"Young master, the Gongzi inside..." Ever since his Young Master carried someone back, the housekeeper had been standing beside his door, waiting for his Young Master to come out so that he could determine the situation.
"Get someone to send a message to my parents: Lu family's compound's wedding." Lu Ao stated this simple words in a clear voice before he turned around and left. He still had to get...
Eh? So he still doesn't know the name of his partner?
He actually forgot to ask such an important thing! He really isn't a qualified partner. Lu Ao staggered in his steps and his back seemed to be slouching much more.
Not mentioning how Lu Ao became depressed due to not knowing his partner's name, the housekeeper, who had just had a bomb dropped on him by Lu Ao, was also stunned. His young master went out for a trip and carried a wife back home?
However, judging from the clothes, wasn't that person a Gongzi? Could it be she was disguised as a man? Thinking of this possibility, the housekeeper's face instantly lit up with pleasure. Perhaps next year, their Lu family may have an additional Young Master..
The steward, who was unaware about the truth, jumped for joy. He seemed to be floating as he walked. As he was so excited, when passing on the message to the Lord and Lady, he specially added a sentence: The lady is beautiful and has the Young Master's intention.
