Chapter 324 - The Four Evils of Windless City (5)

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue nodded, and the two casually found a couple of seats to sit down.

“Hello, what would you like to eat?” The noodle seller was an old man in his seventies. When he saw customers, he walked to Leng Ruoxue and Freak.

“Uncle, we want the best noodles you have,” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.

“Okay! Wait a moment!” The old man turned around and left happily. A few minutes later, he brought two bowls of steaming noodles.

Just as Leng Ruoxue and Freak picked up their chopsticks and were about to taste the noodles, a young man knocked over their table. The two bowls of noodles fell to the ground with a plop, directly feeding the ground.

Freak grabbed the young man’s collar and roared angrily, “Compensate us.”

“I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. Someone is chasing after me,” the young man said apologetically and kept apologizing.

“Even if someone is chasing you, couldn’t you have run somewhere else? Why did you have to knock into our table?” Freak shouted furiously.

“I’m sorry. I really didn’t do it on purpose. Hurry up and run. It will be too late if you don’t,” the young man said anxiously. He tried his best to break free from Freak’s grasp, but he couldn’t break free no matter what.

“Run? Why should we run? Is there a tiger behind us?” Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement. Isn’t this man the one being chased? Why do we have to run too?

“It’s even more terrifying than a tiger! Zhu Mudan is chasing after me. Run!” the young man said anxiously.

When the old man selling noodles heard the name Zhu Mudan, he was so scared that he ran away without caring about his stall.

“Who is Zhu Mudan? A pig with a peony on its head[1]?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.

“How can you not know who Zhu Mudan is? She’s part of the famous Four Evils of Windless City, the daughter of the City Lord,” the young man said anxiously. He really wanted to die. How could he be unlucky as to meet these two ignorant brats? What was more infuriating was that these two people were still holding onto him tightly. Boohoo…

“Uh, isn’t she choosing a husband on East Street?” Leng Ruoxue still didn’t know that she and Freak had been classified as idiots by this man!

“I am her chosen husband!” the young man roared.

“Uh! Congratulations,” Leng Ruoxue said with a smile while looking at the man being held captive by Freak. The man was about twenty years old. He was tall and had a handsome appearance with an extraordinary temperament. He was indeed a rare handsome man, but he was far inferior to Freak.

“Congratulations my ass. I’ll give you two choices. Either let me go or kill me,” the young man said with a demeanor welcoming death.

“Why should we kill you? It’s good to be the city lord’s son-in-law! That’s an iron rice bowl. You will have a backer in the future,” Leng Ruoxue teased.

“Hmph! Who cares! Zhu Mudan already has eighteen husbands.” the young man said disdainfully.

Eighteen husbands! Amazing! Leng Ruoxue was stupefied…

The young man gritted his teeth and said resolutely, “What must I do for you to let me go? State your conditions. I’ll do anything.”

The young man looked at Freak and continued, “Moreover, don’t blame me for not reminding you. The two of you are also in danger. You are a stunningly beautiful man and a stunning beauty, so Zhu Mudan will definitely not let you go. Therefore, leaving this place earlier will be beneficial for us.”

“Don’t even think about leaving today!” An extremely arrogant voice sounded in their ears.

Leng Ruoxue raised her beautiful eyes and sized up the owner of the voice. Uh! Is this one of the Four Evils of Windless City? The woman in front of her was between twenty to thirty years old. She was tall and strong-looking, a little like an orangutan. Her skin was dark, but her figure was curvy. As for her facial features, they were quite complete, and there was everything that should be there. But her eyes, which obviously had signs of excessive overindulgence, were currently releasing a lusty glow. Her not-so-large eyes were staring intently at the young man and Freak.

At this moment, Leng Ruoxue suddenly remembered what the waiter said. The city lord’s daughter hated women who were more beautiful than her the most. But with this woman’s appearance, it was really not easy to find someone uglier than her.

Upon seeing this woman, Leng Ruoxue really wanted to ask, ‘Which zoo did you come out from? Why were the gates of the zoo so weak? Even gorillas run out!’

“Who are you?” Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful face was full of question marks.

“I am the famous daughter of the city lord, Zhu Mudan. How can you not know me? Damn it!” Zhu Mudan was instantly angered when she heard that someone didn’t know her!

“I’m sorry. I’ve only heard of the famous Four Evils of Windless City, but I don’t know the city lord’s daughter,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly with a gentle smile.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know. I’ll let you know me now!” Zhu Mudan said, seemingly generous.

“Thank you! I know you now.” Two drops of cold sweat dripped down Leng Ruoxue’s forehead.

“By the way, did you just say that none of us can run away today?” Leng Ruoxue asked doubtfully.

“That’s right!” Zhu Mudan said confidently.

“Then what do you want to do with us?” Leng Ruoxue was really curious.

“I’m going to kill you! And then keep these two men as my nineteenth and twentieth husbands,” Zhu Mudan boasted shamelessly with her mouth wide open.

“Oh~!” Leng Ruoxue deliberately dragged her voice. Her beautiful eyes looked at the young man and Freak, but she saw that the young man had the words ‘I was right! It was better to run early!’ written on his face.

“Can you manage so many husbands?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.

“No problem. My wish is to have three thousand in my harem. I only have a few now!” Zhu Mudan said proudly.

“…” Leng Ruoxue was speechless. This woman is really extraordinary! How could she say something like that?
