Chapter 8 So ugly
-
As soon as I entered the yard and took a look at the surroundings, I knew what was going on.
Shen Chigui sneered, and his beautiful eyes shot straight at Gu Jinli beside him.
This guy is really restless.
"Miss, what happened?"
After all, he is the steward of the City Lord's Mansion, so a mere teleportation array is not enough to surprise him.
He just felt the tense atmosphere in the courtyard, so he asked: "Did this girl make you angry?"
The housekeeper could only guess this.
"Shut up!"
After waving the whip and hitting the ground, Nangong Jinyao quickly turned her gaze to Chen Chigui.
After looking at it again and again, she was a little disappointed.
"Is this the man you were talking about?"
A child who can be lifted up with one hand is the strong person this person is talking about?
It doesn't look threatening at all.
He is not worthy of the word strong.
"yes."
Covering the wound that no longer bleeds, Gu Jinli limped towards Nangong Jinyao. He stared at the heroine without blinking and said with a firm tone: "Don't underestimate her because she is still young. She is actually very powerful!"
"Yeah?"
The fingers that were gripping the whip turned a little white, and Nangong Jinyao just felt that she was being humiliated.
How strong can such a child be?
It was a pity that she believed this man’s lies and actually sent people to capture him.
Now it seems...
"Miss, this little girl is the master's guest, you can't mess around!"
Although it was unclear what was going on, the housekeeper was still worried by the fact that Gu Jinli was blatantly provoking trouble.
He didn't care why the eldest lady had captured Shen Chigui, but this man was personally instructed by the master, and he couldn't be beaten to death like this.
"What distinguished guest? How could my father care about a little girl?"
Is there really something special about it?
The butler is my father's man and will never speak carelessly.
Nangong Jinyao narrowed her eyes, flicked the whip nonchalantly, and decided to test Shen Chigui’s skills first.
Maybe this girl really has some special abilities?
——Bang!
The sharp whip carried an unstoppable aura and hit Chen Chigui mercilessly.
Seeing with his own eyes that the whip was about to hit the heroine, Gu Jinli's eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth twitched constantly, his face was filled with joy.
Unfortunately, he didn't feel happy for long, because the bone whip was caught the next second, and the person who caught it was Shen Chigui.
She didn't seem to be pretending anymore.
"Is my sister so happy?"
Noticing Gu Jinli's gloating look, Chen Chigui pulled the whip tightly to stop him from continuing, and said in a cold and stern tone: "Quickly stop it! Your face is about to break from laughing. It's so ugly~"
So ugly...
The expression on his face suddenly changed, and Gu Jinli subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, which seemed to be a little too high.
It wouldn't be really ugly, would it?
Miss Gu, who loves beauty, is a little worried.
"you!"
The whip didn't hit anyone but was caught by hand, and the other party slapped Nangong Jinyao hard like a slap.
She knew very well how much strength she had used this time. The whip that was intended to seriously injure the opponent was stopped so easily.
This fact discouraged Nangong Jinyao. After all, when she was this age, she didn't have the ability to catch the bone whip with her bare hands.
I didn't expect that I had missed it. This little girl is not simple.
"Miss, what are you doing? And Miss Shen, let go of Miss's whip!"
Sensing that the current situation was not right, the shrewd butler quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "We are all from the City Lord's Mansion, there is no need to fight to the death!"
“Miss, Miss Shen has important matters to attend to and cannot be delayed!”
"I know. I'll let her go."
He pulled the whip with a stiff expression, but found that the other party still refused to let go.
Nangong Jinyao's expression suddenly turned ugly.
"Why don't you let go?!"
"The young lady is so willful."
Retracting his gaze from Gu Jinli, Chen Chigui glanced at Nangong Jinyao lightly and said with an ambiguous tone, "You grabbed me for no reason, whipped me for no reason, and asked me to let go for no reason."
"Isn't that a bit too much?"
"So what?! Don't forget your identity!"
Even though he realized that this girl was not someone he could easily mess with, Nangong Jinyao was not one to be trifled with.
She just didn't bother with the other party for the sake of her father's face. Don't think that you really can't do anything to her!
Just a slave.
"identity?"
The corners of his lips raised in a mocking arc, Shen Chigui looked at Nangong Jinyao and smiled: "Of course I know my identity."
She paused here and said, "But Miss is not qualified to kill me yet."
"you!"
It was the first time that Nangong Jinyao had seen such an arrogant slave. Her face turned ashen with anger.
Yes, she really couldn't kill Shen Chigui now.
Ever since she confirmed that this person was no ordinary person, she believed what the housekeeper said and that her father had other plans for her.
“Miss Shen, please say less!”
How come this is still a dispute?
Looking at this and that, the housekeeper wiped the cold sweat from his temples and laughed quickly: “Since the eldest lady has nothing to do, I will take Miss Shen away.”
"no!"
"No."
Almost at the same time, they rejected the housekeeper. Nangong Jinyao was stunned for a moment, and immediately said angrily: "Go tell Dad! I want to keep her!"
No matter what her father wants to arrange for this person to do, she must get back her face!
She didn’t believe that such a big City Lord’s Mansion of theirs could not do without a little girl!
"I want to stay with my sister."
Letting go of the fingers that were holding the whip, Shen Chigui patted the non-existent dust on his body and said with a smile: "Just these two days."
housekeeper:"……"
One of them won't let go and the other one doesn't want to leave. It seems like there's no chance of taking them away smoothly.
Forget it, I'd better go and report to the city lord.
After thinking for a while, the housekeeper stopped trying to persuade him and soon walked out of the yard with a sigh.
Suddenly, there were only three of them left here, and even the secret guard who had brought Chen Chi back before had hidden away without anyone knowing.
"Humph! I want to see how hard your bones are!"
Finally, there were no other people around. Nangong Jinyao, feeling humiliated, cracked the whip, her eyes full of fighting spirit.
She underestimated her enemy when she used the whip just now, so now she has to be serious!
"elder sister."
Ignoring the murderous Nangong Jinyao, Chen Chigui stared at Gu Jinli and walked over in two or three steps.
“…”
Finished.
I didn’t think so much when I was tricking the heroine just now, but now it seems like I’ve really lost out!
Not only did he fail to trick the person, but he also made an enemy.
With the heroine's vengeful character, there's no telling how much trouble she'll get into.
Do you want to reload the file?
Gu Jinli thought of his golden finger, which allowed him to save the game once every 24 hours.
The last save was when the hunt ended, so the time isn’t too long ago, so why not load the save and start over?
This time she will definitely not trick the heroine so blatantly.
Thinking of this, Gu Jinli hurriedly called the system.
Then she got some sad news.
[Are you sure you want to use the only chance to load the file? 】
[Confirm or not sure]
What?
only?
