Chapter 43 Shen Shilang is becoming more and more extravagant now!
Prefect Cheng: “!!!”
What's going on?
Isn't Shen Shilang curious at all?
He couldn't have known that already.
Cheng Jianfeng said that this matter was secret and they didn't tell anyone.
"This is what happened." Prefect Cheng told Shen Shilang what Cheng Jianfeng had told him.
After saying that, Shen Shilang bowed deeply to Prefect Cheng, "Thank you for telling me, otherwise I would be done for today."
With the information from Prefect Cheng, Shen Shilang had a more perfect reason.
Otherwise he couldn't explain how he knew that.
Prefect Cheng looked at Shen Shilang's reaction carefully, but couldn't tell whether Shen Shilang knew it or not.
Prefect Cheng was secretly shocked, this Shen Shilang was indeed not a simple person.
Even if Shen Shilang didn't know, he should have shown some sign on his face.
But at this moment, there was indeed surprise on his face, but Prefect Cheng always felt that something was wrong.
Let’s see if Shen Shilang can pass the test today.
If he could pass, he wouldn't mind having a better relationship with Shen Shilang in the future.
"I can send some soldiers to escort you in disguise," said Cheng. "But you can only protect yourself temporarily, not forever. You still have to plan well."
"Thank you, sir." Shen Shilang said, "Just don't bother the soldiers. If there are too many of us, it will be too conspicuous, and the other party may not dare to take action. Although I am safe, I still have to be on guard for the future."
"Your Excellency is right. We must solve this problem once and for all."
"Do you have a solution?" Prefect Cheng asked in surprise.
"I have some martial arts skills. Although I am not very talented, it should be enough to deal with a few thugs from all walks of life." Shen Shilang said.
"I also heard about your martial arts competition." Prefect Cheng said, "Well, just in case, I'll send someone to follow you in the dark, so they can take action at any time without worrying about being seen by the other party."
Since you have decided to help, why not help to the end?
"Don't drink anymore, stay in good shape." Prefect Cheng said, "I'll have someone replace all your wine with water."
"I have ordered someone to prepare a hangover soup. You wait here for a while and drink it before returning to the banquet." Prefect Cheng said again.
"Yes, thank you very much, sir." Shen Shilang said, "I will do my best to repay your kindness today."
"Don't say that. You have a future, and I can't just watch the top scholar under my jurisdiction being ruined by others." said Prefect Cheng.
Prefect Cheng did not ask Shen Shilang how he planned to deal with Wei Jianming.
His father is Wei Zhaoxian, what can you do to him?
Prefect Cheng couldn't leave for too long, so he went back to the banquet first.
After a while, the servant brought Shen Shilang some hangover soup.
Shen Shilang sent the servants away and stayed in the room himself, taking out a silver needle from his bosom.
Su Jinshi: “!!!”
Why do you still carry silver needles with you?
Su Jinshi poked twice at the silver needle that Shen Shilang held on his fingertips.
When Shen Shilang saw the silver needle on his fingertips shake twice, he knew it was done by Su Jinshi.
He and Su Jinshi already had a tacit understanding with each other. When Su Jinshi was unable to transmit his voice, he understood what Su Jinshi meant without Su Jinshi saying anything.
Shen Shilang explained: "I was also worried that Wei Jianming would harm me. Besides, he and Cheng Jianfeng are good friends. I'm afraid he might poison me at the banquet today."
Su Jinshi: “…”
Just based on Shen Shilang's alertness, it was really naive for Wei Jianming to attack Shen Shilang.
Su Jinshi saw Shen Shilang insert the silver needle into the soup.
The silver needle did not change color, so Shen Shilang drank the hangover soup.
Su Jinshi: “…”
I wonder how Prefect Cheng would react if he knew that Shen Shilang did not trust the hangover soup he sent him.
Shen Shilang explained: "Since it is a hangover soup and it is non-toxic, you should drink some. Although the previous wine was mixed with water, it still has some alcohol in it."
Su Jinshi thought to himself, I don’t see how you look like you’re drunk.
Extremely sober.
"By the way, Jinshi, do you have rouge or anything like that?" Shen Shilang asked.
Su Jinshi: “???”
Good boy, which woman outside do you want to give my rouge to?
Shen Shilang didn't know that Su Jinshi thought he had a mistress outside, so he explained, "I put some on my face and pretended to be drunk. I was worried that I was too sober now, and it wouldn't look like I was drunk even if I was pretending."
Su Jinshi: “…”
Good boy, it has to be you.
You scholars have such dirty hearts.
Su Jinshi went to browse the mall again.
I didn't expect it really exists.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
But it actually costs 200 gold coins.
She had only earned 1,000 gold coins today after successfully upgrading, and now she had spent them all in one go.
Forget it. It costs money to support a man.
He likes it and it's not expensive.
So Su Jinshi bought another box of rouge.
Immediately afterwards, a box of rouge appeared out of thin air in Shen Shilang's hand.
Shen Shilang: "..."
Su Jinshi wondered why Shen Shilang was still hesitating since he already had Rouge. Shen Shilang said with great satisfaction: "Jinshi, it seems that your magic power has improved again."
Su Jinshi: “…”
I've said she's not a ghost, why does Shen Shilang still think she's a female ghost? No, she still has to explain it to Shen Shilang.
Su Jinshi poked at the rouge again and asked Shen Shilang to wipe it off quickly.
Unexpectedly, Shen Shilang said with embarrassment: "I don't know how to wipe it..."
"Besides, there's no mirror, so you can't see it." Shen Shilang looked over innocently.
Su Jinshi chuckled twice. Is Shen Shilang actively asking for touch now?
Shen Shilang is getting more and more wild now! "It's a pity that I can't send a message now." Su Jinshi was so sorry, otherwise she would have to embarrass Shen Shilang.
So Su Jinshi put a little rouge on her fingers and gently applied it on Shen Shilang's cheek, then gently patted it evenly, blending the edges to make it blend naturally with the surrounding skin.
Shen Shilang didn't move, his eyes were somewhat scattered and unable to focus.
He could only feel soft fingertips tapping his cheeks.
It's even still warm.
Shouldn't a ghost's touch be cool? Shen Shilang thought endlessly.
"It's done." Su Jinshi looked at the rouge she had applied to Shen Shilang with satisfaction. Her technique was indeed very good.
There was no mirror at hand, but since Su Jinshi said so, Shen Shilang believed it.
Shen Shilang stood up, walked to the door, and when he opened it, he staggered out.
The servant who had delivered the hangover soup had been waiting outside the door and hurriedly supported Shen Shilang.
What's going on? Why does Mr. Shen look even more drunk than before he drank the hangover soup?
Is there anything added to the hangover soup?
Prefect Cheng kept an eye on Shen Shilang's movements at the banquet.
He came back from the banquet and didn't see Shen Shilang for a while.
I guess Shen Shilang might just want to hide in the house and wait for the banquet to be over.
Who knew that just as this thought came to his mind, he saw Shen Shilang walking in with unsteady steps.
Next to him was the servant who had brought him the hangover soup.
