Chapter 7.1

A Woman’s Fragrance (7) – It’s More Fun to Tease Her Than to Tease Birds (1) – unedited

Li Ruo Shui looked at the scene where the jade bodies (TL/N: delicate bodies of young women) were laid out in front of her, and she was sure that this was the place written in the original book.

However in the book, there were fewer people when Lu Fei Yue and the others arrived. There were only two or three young girls in the cages, and there were not many masked people surrounding the courtyard, so that was why both of them managed to capture the leader.

But now there were so many masked people in the courtyard, and they did not know how many more were there in the building. How could they save them?

Lu Fei Yue also frowned over there, and seemed to be thinking about a solution to this matter.

Jiang Nian had already gone up to the roof from the back of the hut to check, and soon returned to Lu Fei Yue’s side, shaking his head solemnly.

“There are many black-clothed guards in the building, about the same number as in the courtyard. We must not attack hastily.”

After hearing this, Lu Feiyue stood up and observed the surroundings.

This place was located in a remote area, and even if the signal flares were released, the reinforcements would not be able to arrive in a while. They could not let them sell these women to other places, once they are sold, they would not know when they would be rescued.

She set her eyesight aside, on the blind Lu Zhi Yao.

He was sitting leisurely among the trees, the pear blossom branches swaying in the wind covering half of his face, revealing only his delicate jaw and silky black hair.

He didn’t look like he arrived here after encountering some obstacles with them, but he looked like he came here for an outing.

Lu Fei Yue was willing to follow them here mainly because she believed in Li Ruo Shui.

Some human characteristics could be read from the eyes. Li Ruo Shui had clear eyes and no bad intentions, however she could not see through Lu Zhi Yao.

Although this person was always smiling and gave people a good feeling, even Jiang Nian said that he looked like a kind person, but she had a strange feeling from the bottom of her heart that she did not like this person.

Her intuition also told her that it would be better to stay away from him.

However in such a situation, the chance of winning would definitely increase a lot with his help.

Lu Fei Yue’s gaze moved to the figure in front of Lu Zhi Yao, a goose-yellow figure was squatting and poking her head to look at her.

She really could not understand how a person like Li Ruo Shui would have a relationship with him, was it only because she was rescued by him before?

Their eyes met, but Li Ruo Shui did not understand the doubts in Lu Fei Yue’s eyes, and thought the gaze was asking her for a solution.

How could there be any solution to this situation now?

Everyone came here with only weapons. Besides retreating or attacking, there was no other way.

People had to learn to put themselves in the right position. For example, if they wanted to attack, then they would have to let Lu Zhi Yao take the lead.

Li Ruo Shui turned her head thoughtfully, only to see Lu Zhi Yao sitting on the tree with his legs crossed, his eyes closed, and the light between the flowers swaying on his body, like a Buddha statue in a temple holding a jade bottle, revealing ineffable peace and tranquillity.

He was playing with a bunch of green mulberries he picked at some point with one hand, and a modest bird was resting on the fingertips of his other hand.

She saw a bunch of wild mulberries in the pear forest earlier, but because the mulberries were not ripe yet, she just looked at it and left. When did this person pick it?

The bird stared at the mulberries in his hand, and wanted to peck a bite, but he always dodged from the bird before it could eat the mulberries.

Lu Zhi Yao chuckled after doing this several times, and when Li Ruo Shui thought he was going to feed the bird, he raised his hand and waved the bird off.

Probably because the pear trees around here still haven’t fruited, there was nothing to eat so the birds were greedy, fluttered their wings and flew back, but halfway through, they were hit by a green and hard mulberry on their tail feathers.

A grey-black feather fell from its back and whirled down to the ground.

He smiled and shook the fruit in his hand, his expression soft, and the words he uttered were not sharp at all.

“Be good.”

The birds chirped a few times and then flew away with beady eyes, as if they were running away.
