C230 230 Accompany me for a few days

Liu Ruo Qing was startled by his question, her eyes revealed a look of astonishment, but then, she laughed helplessly: "You have some business here, what do you want me to do?"

She didn't think too much about it.

As an important member of the imperial government, Yan Yuan came here to settle some important matters related to handling these cases. She had never wanted to join in on the fun.

As a result, he casually said out the answer, and didn't think about what Yan Yuan was thinking at all.

When Yan Yuan heard the answer that he expected, his heart was filled with an unease.

Although he had anticipated this, he still felt very uncomfortable.

"True …"

These two low words were filled with too much sadness and desolation.

She had come to find someone very important, so how could he possibly be someone very important?

But she didn't come to find him, what important person in Huaxi Town asked her to come?

Was the sadness and disappointment on her face because she had not found that person?

Liu Ruo Qing seemed to have sensed his instantly low emotions, as she realised her answer, and her heart tensed up.

Seeing his downcast eyes and his gaze filled with a heartbreaking loneliness, she opened her mouth as if she wanted to explain something.

But as the words reached his mouth, he changed it, "Oh right, do you have any leads on that case?"

"Oh, I was just about to find the waiter from last time to find out the situation when I bumped into you here."

Yan Yuan replied as he withdrew the loneliness in his eyes.

"Oh."

Liu Ruo Qing nodded her head, following that, the two of them looked at each other speechlessly, the silent atmosphere was a little awkward.

"That... "Since I haven't found him, I'll head back to the capital first. Goodbye."

She waved goodbye to Yan Yuan.

"Alright."

He did not open his mouth to keep her, even if there was too much reluctance in his heart.

Since the emotional entrustment in her heart wasn't him, what was the use of forcing her to stay?

Liu Ruo Qing turned around and left, but before he had reached a distance of ten meters, she heard Yan Yuan calling out to her from behind, "Tian Xin!"

She stopped and turned her head.

Even though she was against the name "Tian Xin", right now, she could only silently accept this identity.

Seeing Yan Yuan walking towards her quickly, she wanted to tell him that she was not called Tian Xin, but Ruo Qing. If you are safe, then you will be the Ruo Qing of the clear sky.

Liu Ruo Qing's eyes flashed with a sharp pain, and when Yan Yuan arrived in front of her, it turned into a trace of a smile.

"What is it?"

She asked Yan Yuan with a light tone.

As Yan Yuan stood in front of her, the loneliness in his eyes could be seen everywhere.

"We're already here. Stay with me for a few days. Once the case is over, we'll return to the capital together."

His indifferent tone sounded like he was discussing with Liu Ruo Qing, but even more than that, there was still hope and request hidden within.

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, when she saw the clear and emotional pair of eyes, he could not say anything.

Yan Yuan seemed to be afraid that she would refuse, and continued: "Aren't you looking for someone? Maybe he's still in town and you'll run into him if you stay a few more days. "

Yan Yuan had lived for more than twenty years, but he had never thought that there would come a day where he, Yan Yuan, would speak to a person with such a cautious tone.

And yet, he encountered it, and even tripped over such a huge obstacle.

After a moment of silence, Liu Ruo Qing nodded her head: "That's right, what if we meet again?"

After receiving her consent, Yan Yuan's face revealed a slight smile of joy.

Even if the reason why she stayed was not for him, to be able to keep her by his side for a few days was also very happy.

"Weren't you going to ask the second brother?" "Let's go in."

She pointed to the inn behind her.

"Miss, you're back. Have you found the person you were looking for?"

The shopkeeper saw that Liu Ruo Qing had entered again, and there was another person by her side.

"I haven't found it yet."

Liu Ruo Qing replied with a smile, "Give me a room."

"Yes, girl."

The shopkeeper opened a room for Liu Ruo Qing, and Yan Yuan and Liu Ruo Qing walked to a side and sat down.

"Are you hungry? Would you like to order some food? "

"I'm a little hungry."

Coincidentally, the waiter who was in charge of receiving them that day walked out from the backyard, "What would the two guests like to eat?"

The waiter came in front of them, and his eyes lit up, "Eh? Esteemed customers, it's you two. "

"The second brother has a good memory, he still remembers us."

Liu Ruo Qing and Yan Yuan looked at each other, and started to get close to the waiter.

"That's right. On the night of the murder, the two of you were staying in a small shop. How could I not remember?"

The waiter laughed, his expression a little unnatural.

Seeing that the waiter took the initiative to bring up the case, Yan Yuan took the opportunity to ask: "Second brother, I heard you say that the Chen family's vengeful spirit was involved, what is going on?"

"That's a long story, but it's all because of that …"

Just as the waiter's words reached his mouth, he shivered as if he was avoiding something. He didn't continue speaking and changed the topic.

"Two guests, what would you like to eat? I'll go and give you two orders."

The waiter had obviously changed the topic, which Yan Yuan and Yan Yuan could obviously tell, as if he was extremely secretive about the matter regarding the Chen Residence.

The two of them looked at each other again, then Liu Ruo Qing said: "Order a few of the signature dishes of your shop."

"Alright, I'll go and give you two your spots right away."

After the waiter went down, Liu Ruo Qing looked into her eyes and asked: "That waiter seems to have something that he doesn't dare to say."

"Mhm, no one is willing to talk about the annihilation of the Chen Clan."

Yan Yuan frowned, a bit of anger appearing in the bottom of his eyes.

"What's wrong? Did you ask anyone else? "

"County Magistrate Zhuang Qing."

Yan Yuan replied indifferently: "At first, Zhuang Qing took me to the Chen Palace. When I asked him about this, he obviously wasn't willing to tell me about it."

Liu Ruo Qing dragged her chin, and looked at the waiter who was currently greeting him from another table, and said: "I see that the waiter isn't unwilling to speak, but rather doesn't dare to speak."

This point was something that Yan Yuan could see, and he agreed with Liu Ruo Qing's words.

"When we get back to our room, we'll call him up when we get a chance."

Liu Ruo Qing laughed in a low voice and suggested.

Seeing her weird expression, Yan Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud, the angry feeling in his heart had disappeared.

After finishing their meal, the two of them went upstairs to the room that Liu Ruo Qing had prepared. Not long later, the waiter came up carrying hot water.

"Sir, you have hot water."

"Alright, leave it."

Liu Ruo Qing walked to the front of the waiter and blocked her path.

"Second Bro, I was quite frightened by the ghost story you told me last time. If you don't finish telling me the story today, then don't even think about leaving."

"Miss, you …"

The waiter was in a bit of a dilemma. Before he could finish speaking, a sword was placed in front of him. The sharp edge of the sword had already left his body.

"Let me tell you the truth, I am a gangster of the martial arts world, what kind of gang are you talking about, the gang, the Salt Clan, the Black Wind Stronghold, and the Jingyang Manor? Which gangs have I not been involved in, I have countless murders on my back and I do not need you to do it? If you do not tell me the whole story, then your life will end here."

As the sound of his voice faded, with a bang, the entire blade of the sword had been unsheathed. The sharp edge of the sword shone with a blinding light.

This sword was borrowed from Yan Yuan's armory when she was out, in order to prevent himself from encountering the previous assassins.

Now, he would use it to scare this second brother. It was just right.

Yan Yuan sat at the side, quietly drinking his tea. Watching a certain someone acting shamelessly, he did not say a word.

There was a faint smile at the corner of his eyes that was filled with love, as if telling Liu Ruo Qing that no matter how much of a hooligan she played, this king will cover for you.
