Fang Qing's obvious disdain amused Gao Ren.
"Little beauty, you're quite interesting. Do you know who I am?"
Fang Qing looked at him like he was an idiot.
Now everyone in An County knew that he was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard from the capital.
Her gaze made Gao Ren laugh out loud again.
He let go of Fang Qing and laughed so hard he almost fell on her.
"Since you know my identity, you don't know that the Embroidered Uniform Guards are ruthless killers, especially the commander. There are very few people in the capital who dare to talk to me like that. The last one who dared to say I was shameless is probably long gone by now."
As he spoke, he lifted the hair off Fang Qing's shoulder.
"So don't make me angry, or the consequences of me getting angry will be very serious."
He had a smile in his eyes, but there was no threat in them.
Fang Qing frowned as she looked at him.
Such a identity is indeed quite frightening, but she doesn't need to act like she's afraid of him.
Gao Ren stared at her for a long time, resting his chin on his hand, until Fang Qing's face turned pale from his gaze.
"Has the Commander seen enough?"
"No, you're so good-looking, why are you afraid of people looking at you?"
"Has no one told the Commander that it's very impolite to stare at people like that?"
She was on the verge of going insane.
Gao Ren raised his eyebrows.
"Nobody. I have no parents and was raised by an old beggar. What kind of upbringing do you expect from a little beggar?"
How could a dignified commander, the adopted son of the Prime Minister, have such a tragic background?
Fang Qing's face stiffened for a moment, then the disdain in her eyes disappeared, and she pulled her hair back from the other person's hand.
"Don't move."
As Gao Ren looked at her lowered eyes, the frivolous smile on his face gradually faded.
So, the way this country girl slightly avoided eye contact just now was because she pitied him?
He found it incredible the moment the idea popped into his head.
This fool, who can barely protect himself, is actually pitying him, the ruthless commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard?
He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Tch, Fang Qing, are you stupid?"
Fang Qing looked up and glared at her, her eyes filled with displeasure.
Gao Ren, however, looked away first.
He stood up, his tone suddenly turning somber.
"Alright, get ready. Come back to Beijing with me tomorrow."
With that, he turned and left.
After the door was closed again, Fang Qing quickly called out to Xiao Dou.
Where is this place?
[Prefectural City.]
It turns out they had already left An County.
"Then what about the Wind and Rain Tower that Gao Ren mentioned earlier? How did I get involved with them?"
[I don't know either. There was no Wind and Rain Tower in this world originally. This thing suddenly appeared, and the system doesn't know what to do!]
Noticing the flaw in Xiaodou's words, Fang Qing paused and asked, "What was this world originally like?"
[This was all pre-programmed. In the previous life, Zhao Shi'an's internal imbalances caused this world to collapse, which is why the system pulled you in to repair and stabilize it...]
Xiaodou suddenly realized at this point that she had talked to Fang Qing for so long.
[I...you didn't hear anything, right?]
Fang Qing directly exposed it.
"You heard everything. So, this Wind and Rain Pavilion is not under the system's control. This organization has the potential to throw the world into chaos again?"
[This is possible, so the system is already undergoing emergency repairs.]
Fang Qing was caught up in so many secrets about this world that she didn't react for a moment.
From what Xiaodou is saying, this world is just a fabrication by the system?
Everyone in this world is simply following a script.
A sense of unreality suddenly welled up in Fang Qing's heart.
She was lost in thought for a moment when Xiaodou spoke.
[There are Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) everywhere outside; there's no way to leave. I think you should listen to Gao Ren and set off with him first, then find an opportunity to escape along the way.]
Fang Qing pursed her lips tightly.
You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple.
She escaped from Gao Ren's clutches, but what about Fang Daniu and his wife, and Zhao Shi'an?
Fang Qing gradually became irritable.
Are all the people at Fengyulou seriously ill?
They don't even know her, so why would they bother appearing around her?
"Can the system make the Wind and Rain Tower disappear from this world?"
Only in this way could Gao Ren let her go.
[Disappearance is impossible. Fengyulou has already become involved in factional struggles and has established close ties with this world. Don't worry, the system is currently correcting itself.]
Fang Qing sighed deeply.
Later, someone opened the door and brought in the food.
Even though dinner was very plentiful, she didn't eat much.
I couldn't sleep well at night, my mind filled with thoughts of how worried my family must be after they found out she was missing.
She lay on the soft bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
In An County, Zhao Shi'an received a report from Xiao Liu.
"We've found their trail. They're in the prefectural city, and they're members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard."
Zhao Shi'an sat behind the table, his hand holding the calligraphy brush suddenly tightening.
Gao Ren.
Sure enough, he wouldn't leave An County so easily.
The Wind and Rain Pavilion is currently enjoying great influence in the martial arts world, and most importantly, it controls a great deal of intelligence, making it an object that the Gao family wants to win over.
However, he intervened in Mian'er's matter, and the Gao family felt that Fengyulou had already been used by the Crown Prince.
Gao Ren's target was not Fang Qing, but Fengyu Tower.
Xiao Liu obviously understood what was going on.
He looked up at Zhao Shi'an's unpleasant expression.
"It was my fault for not doing my job properly. Gao Ren discovered our Fengyulou people next to Miss Fang."
