prey

"Puff--" Lin Yuan couldn't help but spit out the tea, but fortunately she didn't do it to Zhu Wanling.

"Why are you still shy after two years of going out? Haha, I've tasted it all, and now I'll let you taste it."

Lin Yuan covered her ears and said, "Hey, shut up!"

"Haha, you are cuter than before. Sister, I am going to hunt."

"Ah? Hunting?" Lin Yuan asked with a question mark on his face.

Zhu Wanling smiled mysteriously and did not answer. She walked out of the door gracefully and met Yuan Xuanlang head-on when she went down the stairs. She pretended to sprain her ankle, lost her balance, and fell towards Yuan Xuanlang.

Yuan Xuanlang dodged sideways and she fell into the arms of someone else.

She looked at the uncle with a stubble on his face and cursed in her heart.

"Miss, please be careful." Yuan Xuanlang's eyes flashed with mockery and contempt.

Zhu Wanling straightened up calmly and gracefully, it seemed that he was not buying it.

Her autumn eyes were full of smiles, and she covered her face with a handkerchief and sobbed softly, "Master, you really don't remember me. That night, you were still calling me 'Qingqing' so affectionately, why don't you admit it now?"

Yuan Xuanlang wanted to roll his eyes, but everyone stared at him like bells, waiting for his reply and confirmation.

After all, which girl would destroy her own innocence by saying these things?

He: “It’s not me…”

Zhu Wanling: “Oh…”

Any denial is powerless. Does he really need to find a doctor to take his pulse and check his uterine blood?

Lin Yuan watched through the crack in the door and wanted to pull her back.

He just said, "Follow me."

Everyone took a deep breath, their gossip spirits burning fiercely.

"You go guard the goods," he ordered sternly, then went into his room.

Lin Yuan quickly closed the door and heard the room next to her creak open. She swallowed her saliva. Why is he living next door to me? What's worse is that the soundproofing in this room is not good. She can hear Zhu Wanling's whimpering.

Yuan Xuanlang slapped a few banknotes on the table and said, "Don't mess with me after you take the money, and don't go out and talk nonsense."

Zhu Wanling leaned towards him delicately like a fairy, but missed him. She tangled her fingers in her hair and said, "Oh, I really like you, not for this little money."

"Then you can't destroy your own innocence and frame me, besides, I already have a lover." He tried to persuade this shameless man.

"Hmm, where is your sweetheart? I'd better keep you company while she's away."

"No need, get out!" He was already in a low mood, and when someone who was even more shameless than him touched his minefield, he became even more annoyed, so he slapped Zhu Wanling with his palm.

She dodged it nimbly.

Seeing that she knew martial arts, Yuan Xuanlang showed no mercy and used force to deal with her.

Lin Yuan pushed the door open and shouted, "Zhu Wanling! Stop making trouble!"

Zhu Wanling stopped, felt a blow on the shoulder, and walked to her side with a frown and a pout.

Yuan Xuanlang leaned towards Lin Yuan and looked at her. She was wearing a veil, and the white gauze covered half of her body, so her face could not be seen, but he instinctively felt that she looked familiar.

"My maid was disobedient and disturbed you, sir. I apologize to you and will discipline her well." She changed her tone deliberately.

"Oh? Then you really need to discipline him." He walked closer and smiled politely.

"Thank you very much. I'll take my leave now." She turned and prepared to leave.

He took advantage of her surprise and quickly used his sword to pull off her veil.

He moved in front of Lin Yuan and saw that her eyes were covered with a white cloth, her eyebrows were thick and her lips were swollen.

"Ah! Little... um?" Zhu Wanling was mute due to Lin Yuan's needle.

"You? What do you mean, sir?" Lin Yuan asked him angrily.

"The girl looks familiar, so I wanted to verify it. Sorry, I recognized the wrong person." He returned the veil to Lin Yuan.

"Hey, Wanling, let's go!"

Zhu Wanling: "Hmmmm..."

They asked the shopkeeper to change rooms, the room farthest away from Yuan Xuanlang.

"Today, tomorrow, oh no, you are not allowed to eat meat or drink alcohol for these seven days!" Lin Yuan put one foot on the stool and said to Zhu Wanling.

Zhu Wanling: "Ah? Why?"

"Because this young master has taken a fancy to him, you are not allowed to touch my prey!" Lin Yuan's eyebrows were fierce, but he looked fierce but was actually weak.

That's right, she used her public office for personal gain, abused her power, and was unreasonable.

Zhu Wanling tangled her hair with her fingers: "Okay, the young master has spoken, I can only obey, then let's get down to business tonight."

It was a dark and windy night. Lin Yuan put knockout drugs in the food for the escort agency staff. They wore masks and sneaked into their warehouse with a few men.

They opened the box, which was filled with agate, pearls, gold, silver and other treasures.

"Carry it away!" Zhu Wanling gave an order, and several strong and skilled men lifted the box.

Lin Yuan was thinking about how to make this robbery fail. After all, she owed him, and she had lost the gift for the emperor, which should be a serious crime.

"Who are you from? It's not nice to carry you away without saying hello, right?" Yuan Xuanlang and his bodyguards stood at the door and looked at them with a smile.

Great, you won't disappoint.

Lin Yuan was surprised but also a little nervous, and pulled her veil up again.

"You are just an unknown person, and why would you say hello to a robber? Sir, why don't you stay with me for one night, and we will let you go, how about it?" Zhu Wanling threw a coquettish glance.

Lin Yuan's mouth twitched. This guy dared to say anything.

Yuan Xuanlang chuckled a few times, "I'm afraid the young lady is not worthy of it."

He waved his hand, and the bodyguards behind him rushed forward with knives in hand. The two groups were about to fight and engaged in combat.

Lin Yuan held a sword to block the attack from behind for Zhu Wanling.

"Thank you. Why isn't the young master watching the battle from the sidelines?"

"I just felt like giving you a hand, so why not?" Lin Yuan secretly exhaled, almost revealing his true identity.

"I know why the young master just watched and didn't fight before. It's because your martial arts skills are too poor, hahahaha." Zhu Wanling joked among the bloody blades.

The person who was kicked against the wall fell down heavily like a leather bag, raising a cloud of dust on the ground.

"Yes, yes—the situation is not good, let's retreat first."

The escorts who were able to protect the government's goods were indeed very skilled, and Lin Yuan's side gradually lost the upper hand.

Seeing that only a few of his men were left, Lin Yuan ordered a retreat.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she saw Yuan Xuanlang standing in front of her. Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that something was wrong.

"She called you Young Master?" He traced her figure in the dark, trying to identify her.

Lin Yuan made up his mind, pulled out the dagger and stabbed him.

"Swish—" The dagger penetrated into the flesh and bones, and the smell of blood spread.

Lin Yuan panicked, he could clearly dodge it.

"Why don't you hide?" She let go of his hand tremblingly, tears in her eyes.

"Young Master!"

"Escort leader!"

Before the two groups of soldiers rushed over, he pulled out the dagger and handed it to Lin Yuan, and whispered in Lin Yuan's ear: "I really want to tie you up and keep you by my side."

Shouldn't he hate me? How could he say such a thing? Aren't you a righteous light, a chivalrous man?

But there was a moment when Lin Yuan really wanted to say, "Okay."

However, reason prevailed. "Don't be stubborn," she replied with a classic quote of advice.

Her hand was grabbed by Zhu Wanling, "Young Master, hurry up and leave!"

She didn't dare to look at her for another second, so she turned around and left with her.

The escorts were about to chase after him, but Yuan Xuanlang gestured to stop them.

"Boss, are you going to let them go just like that?"

"Don't fall into their trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain. Besides, your escort leader is injured, so why are you still chasing him?" Yuan Xuanlang narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone was quite intimidating.

Everyone gave up.

Lin Yuan washed the blood off the dagger by the river. The warm liquid seemed to still be on her hands. She wanted to cry for a while, but for some reason she felt so sad and calm instead. She had no tears to shed, as if something was missing.

"Young Master, I didn't expect that their martial arts skills were so high. It doesn't matter if we can't complete the mission this time. I will take care of the OP's side!" Zhu Wanling patted her shoulder.

"Do you know who the leader of the escort is? Why did you deliberately assign me such a mission?" Lin Yuanqing asked coldly, turning his head to look directly into her eyes.

"Haha, this... my mission is also completed, so it's okay to tell you. It's just that the host wants to test the young master. After all, good and evil cannot coexist. If you become the host in the future, you can't have a private relationship with a righteous person..."

Lin Yuan laughed out loud in anger, "Good and evil cannot coexist? Humans are inherently both good and evil. Do you have to be like a god to sever all emotions and desires to be a OP? Ha, your mission is really boring."
