Li Baobei had just closed the door when she heard this earth-shattering word.
The deep voice came from behind the screen; it sounded like a young man.
She was instantly startled!
But he quickly regained his composure.
Bizhu was completely dumbfounded; she thought no one was in the room.
"Excuse me, sir, I was accidentally chased and bitten by a rabid dog and wandered here unintentionally. I'm very sorry for disturbing you," Li Baobei said.
"Search every room, make sure you catch that woman," the voice came from the stairwell.
"Miss, what should we do? They're coming in!" Bizhu was terrified when she heard and saw them.
Li Baobei gave her a reassuring look.
Turning to the screen, she said, "Young master, as you can see, I was unfortunately harassed by some villains today. I hope you will have the kindness to save me. I will repay you handsomely in the future."
But the person behind the screen did not answer for a long time.
She added urgently, "If you save us, young master, we will reward you handsomely with a generous gift."
With a bang, the door was pushed open.
"Ha! So you're here?" The person who came in raised his hand to grab Li Baobei.
Just when Li Baobei thought she was about to be arrested.
A figure emerged from behind the screen and grabbed the person entering from outside the door.
He then kicked the person out, knocking over the two people still standing outside the door.
The three looked up at the man and immediately recognized him as He You's war slave.
The three of them tumbled and scrambled downstairs.
A tall and imposing figure slowly walked out from behind the screen.
Why worry! ! !
"Third Miss, we really are destined to meet," He You said calmly, without any emotion.
"Thank you for your help once again, Lord He. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, please feel free to come to the Prime Minister's residence to find me. My daughter will do her best to help."
Li Baobei was overjoyed; she saw him again, and he was as handsome as ever.
He suddenly asked in a seductive tone, "Really? Miss, what do you think you can do to help me?"
Li Baobei was startled by her tone. Was he a demon?
Her voice is so sweet it's like it could make your ears pregnant.
"Of course, Lord He, you are my benefactor, and more than once. My daughter will definitely repay your kindness," just as Li Baobei thought he was about to say something else.
The man had already reached the door when he suddenly turned around!
"Do you need me to take you back?" He You asked casually.
Li Baobei thought about the man outside the restaurant. If she didn't go with He You, she probably wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
"Then thank you very much, Lord He," Li Baobei smiled sweetly and followed He You down the restaurant.
Zhao Wei was still cursing the servants in front of the door, "You useless lot, you can't even catch a single woman, you're all useless."
Suddenly I turned my head and saw someone coming out of the restaurant.
It was Li Baobei, and standing next to her was He You!
The ruthless Yama King of the Dali Temple, who kills without blinking an eye!
This man has recently gained the favor of the royal family, but he is a complete troublemaker. Recently, many corrupt officials in the capital have been demoted and imprisoned by him.
Just as Zhao Wei was about to run away, he heard: "Young Master Zhao usually harasses respectable women from ordinary families, and no one dares to interfere."
Now you've even set your sights on the third young lady of Prime Minister Li's mansion? I think you've gotten too complacent and don't know your place.
"I advise you to take care of yourself," He You said coldly.
"She's actually the third young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion? The legendary beauty Li Nannan, who is said to be as beautiful as Xi Shi and Diao Chan? No wonder she's so beautiful!" He You was shocked, feeling like he had kicked a hornet's nest.
He wanted to turn back and ask when, but found that the two had already gotten into the carriage and left.
He You's carriage was very large, and the interior was covered with thick black velvet carpets, making it look very luxurious.
He You sat with his eyes closed in the main seat of the carriage, while Li Baobei sat on the right side of the carriage.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet, and she wondered if she should say something to break the ice.
Just as he was about to say something, He You spoke up:
"Be careful of the fourth young lady next to you. She might have been responsible for your kidnapping by thugs."
His bright, open phoenix eyes gave off an air of unparalleled nobility as he stared directly at Li Baobei.
She suddenly felt a little nervous, didn't dare to look him in the eye, and turned her head away.
He could see her panic, but her sparkling eyes were like a vast starry sea, as if you could be sucked into them and unable to escape.
Is she afraid of herself? It's normal to be afraid.
"Thank you!" Li Baobei said, bowing her head.
She wanted to get closer to him, but she was also afraid to get closer to him.
She knew she wasn't good enough for him; he should be the kind of extraordinary woman like the heroine in a novel.
Instead of being a useless burden like myself.
I'm just an NPC who cries and gets lost when I'm scared.
What's the use of having this face now?
So far, it seems that he has only brought disaster upon himself.
Li Baobei suddenly realized: if she quickly got close to the male lead and prevented him from turning evil, wouldn't that speed up the plot?
Then you can retire early after achieving your goal.
Li Baobei's eyelashes fluttered like two butterflies, and her eyes, sparkling like stars, looked at He You and said:
"Lord He, does your Dali Temple recruit female guards?" she asked, blinking her bright, hopeful eyes.
What was she thinking about? He You frowned.
"The Dali Temple never accepts women," He You said coldly, without any extra expression.
Haha, you don't want women, huh!
