Chapter 363 Asking for help
"You really want to die here? I remember there was a girl in green clothes who cared about you very much. Aren't you afraid of making her sad?"
Lin Chuan frowned tightly, his eyes full of helplessness.
"..."
Qiu bit his thin lips lightly and remained silent.
"you……"
Lin Chuan wanted to say something, but Qiu suddenly looked outside the door.
There, a woman in a light pink dress was standing with her arms folded across her chest, a sneer on her lips, and her eyes were staring straight at Lin Chuan.
"..."
Lin Chuan secretly thought that something was wrong, and his face showed a bit of panic unconsciously. He pretended to be calm and said, "Sister Li, why are you here?"
"What? Did I bother you?"
Li Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, and her figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, leaving only a faint afterimage.
"Be careful, son!"
Qiu rushed over without hesitation, hugged Lin Chuan tightly in his arms and protected him tightly.
The jade flute that fell heavily with the sound of sharp wind seemed to be frozen in mid-air.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, even though he was seriously injured, he still wanted to protect him. It's really touching."
Li Yue sneered, slowly put away the jade flute, and turned to leave.
"Sister Li!"
Lin Chuan quickly broke free from Qiu's arms and hurriedly chased after him.
But when he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "You have done a great job protecting me this time. It's not too much to accept the elixir, right? Live well and don't die."
As soon as he finished speaking, the small pile of pills that Qiu had previously refused to accept reappeared on the table. Then, Lin Chuan left without even looking back.
"..."
Qiu remained silent, reached out his hand to collect the pills on the table one by one, and then bowed slightly towards the door that was already empty.
And on her lower abdomen, a glaring dark red was slowly spreading on her clothes.
……
"Sister Li, I really just stopped by to see an old friend. I didn't mean to sneak away."
Lin Chuan stood next to the pastry shop and explained sincerely, but Li Yue acted as if she didn't hear him. Her pretty face was frosty and her eyes were indifferent. She ignored his words completely.
"Sir, here are the two chestnut cakes you ordered. The one on the left has more sugar, and the one on the right has less sugar. Please keep them."
The shopkeeper's face was full of smiles as he handed over two cakes.
Li Yue raised her bare hands and picked up the sugary chestnut cake. Without saying a word, she took light lotus steps and walked straight into the distance with a graceful figure.
"Sir, you still have one copy left!"
The shopkeeper saw Li Yue walking away without looking back and quickly raised his voice.
"No, feed it to the dog."
Li Yue didn't stop walking, her voice was as cold as ice.
"Sir, have you made your wife angry?"
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed Lin Chuan, who was about to follow Li Yue, and said earnestly with a knowing smile on his face:
"Husband and wife always quarrel and make up at the end of the day. Just give them some comfort. This low-sugar chestnut cake was specially ordered by your wife for you. Please keep it."
As he spoke, he stuffed the low-sugar chestnut cake into Lin Chuan's hand, his eyes full of "I understand".
"..."
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
Lin Chuan thanked her and hurriedly followed in the direction Li Yue left.
……
Siqin Building, the main building.
"Master, there's news from Fulong Country that the young master has gone there."
Chun lowered his body, knelt firmly on his knees before the bead curtain, and spoke in a respectful voice.
"Fulong Country..."
Qing Shu opened her red lips slightly, and her voice was like a wisp of smoke, with a hint of contemplation.
"How's Qiu doing?"
She slowly raised her hand, and gently stroked the warm jade pendant in her hand with her jade fingers.
"She fought against three Transformed Gods from the Tiger Capturing Sect, killed one, and two escaped. She was also seriously injured."
Chun lowered her head, her beautiful face hidden in the shadows.
"Did she ask for help?"
Qingshu frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on Chun outside the bead curtain.
"No, she just sent a message saying that the young master is willing to help her and hopes that the headquarters will send some people to protect the young master. As for other matters, she doesn't need to interfere."
Chunchun still kept her head down, speaking slowly and steadily.
"..."
……
Fulong State, on the streets of the capital.
"Sister Li, don't be angry, I really know I was wrong."
Lin Chuan followed Li Yue, carrying a variety of snacks.
"Angry? Why should I be angry? If anyone is angry, it should be Xu Hanyi."
Li Yue snorted softly and took a bite of the candied haws in her hand with her pearly teeth, but the sourness of the hawthorn made her frown.
"Sister Li... um..."
Lin Chuan had just uttered a few words, but before he could finish, the string of candied haws was stuffed into his mouth without any explanation.
Li Yue withdrew her hand, snorted softly, and still turned her back to him, quickening her pace as she walked forward. However, the slightly red tips of her ears seemed to reveal her uneasy heart at the moment.
……
As night falls, in the quiet inn, in the Tianzi room.
Lin Chuan was carrying the things Li Yue bought during the day and was about to follow Li Yue into the room, but the door suddenly closed in front of him with a "click".
"Men and women should not touch each other. Go back to your brothel and sleep."
Li Yue's voice came coldly from inside the house, with unquestionable determination.
"..."
"Sister Li bought these during the day and put them at the door for her."
Lin Chuan scratched his head, gently put down the snacks and accessories that Li Yue had bought during the day, and then left.
In the room, candlelight flickered.
Li Yue stood quietly in front of the window, looking at Lin Chuan's figure gradually walking away towards Siqin Building. She took a deep breath, and then with a "click", she closed the window forcefully.
"I shouldn't have brought him out."
Li Yue sighed softly, slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, folded her hands, and unconsciously tugged at the corner of her clothes with her fingers.
"That's not right. Why should I be angry? It's not my Taoist partner who went to the brothel. If anyone should be angry, it should be Xu Hanyi. I'm just angry because I feel unfair for Xu Hanyi. Yes, that's definitely the case."
She kept muttering to herself as if she was making excuses for herself.
After a while.
"No, I have to discipline Xiao Linchuan for Xu Hanyi. I can't let him be so promiscuous anymore!"
Li Yue's eyes were determined. She stood up suddenly and opened the door.
Outside.
The floor was filled with snacks and accessories, which were the things she bought during the day, but they did not attract much of her attention at the moment.
Li Yue just took a quick glance and then raised her leg to leave.
However, just as her peripheral vision swept across the ground, she suddenly stopped and was slightly stunned.
Next to a large bag of packed jade hairpins, there was a small brocade box that I had never seen before lying there quietly.
She bent down with some doubt, stretched out her hand, and gently picked up the small brocade box, her eyes full of curiosity and confusion.
As the small brocade box was opened, a pale purple jade hairpin and a small note suddenly caught Liyue's eye.
"..."
Li Yue's fingertips trembled slightly as she slowly unfolded the note, which read:
"Thank you for coming!"
