Chapter 384: The Fiancé Ran Away with the Most Beautiful Girl in the World (9)
Mu Changqing chuckled, raised his long and thick eyebrows, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect that the girl is still grateful. I thought that the girl just left without even leaving her name because she was afraid that I would use my kindness to ask for repayment. It seems that I have judged others by my own standards."
Even though Shu Shichu was thick-skinned enough, she felt her face getting a little hot when she heard his words, but she recovered quickly. She really didn't intend to repay any favor, because even without Mu Changqing, she could get rid of the flower thief by herself. Who knew if Mu Changqing himself had a personal grudge against the flower thief, but described this act of revenge as a favor to Shu Shichu?
"No, no, no. Hero Mu is a chivalrous man. He must have been disgusted with this flower thief, so he killed him to prevent him from harming people any more. As for why I'm in a hurry to leave, it's because it's dark and windy now, and it's not appropriate for us to be alone in a room..." Shu Shichu explained in a gentle voice, but secretly hated herself for not practicing martial arts diligently enough. Otherwise, if her martial arts skills were better than Mu Changqing's, she wouldn't have to waste time talking to Mu Changqing here and could just leave.
Mu Changqing looked at the beautiful girl in front of him and said that he wanted to avoid suspicion, but his expression did not show any shyness, uneasiness or avoidance that he would see when facing a strange man. Instead, he was very calm. He did not forget that the girl was captured by a flower thief, and she had taken the opportunity to use a hidden weapon to deal with the flower thief. She was very brave. Mu Changqing did not believe that she cared about the boundaries between men and women.
"Where are you from, girl? Where do you live? How did you get caught by a flower thief?" Mu Changqing asked Shu Shichu, whose eyes were moving around quickly.
Shu Shichu thought about it and felt that she couldn't use her real name to get involved in the underworld. Otherwise, if people knew she was a member of the Shu family, what would happen if she offended her enemies and her family was implicated? So she immediately made up a fake name: "My name is Zhanchu." Zhan was Shu's mother's surname, so it was normal for her to take her mother's surname.
"I originally came here to seek refuge with my relatives. I was sleeping in the inn tonight when I was captured by this man. I just woke up. Fortunately, I met hero Mu, otherwise I don't know what would have happened to me next." Shu Shichu patted his chest and said with great relief, looking at Mu Changqing with gratitude.
Mu Changqing didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he didn't ask any more questions. He kindly said, "It's so dark now, which inn is Miss Zhan staying at? I will help you to the end, so I will take you back to the inn."
Shu Shichu didn't want him to meddle in other people's business, so he shook his head and refused: "No, no, Master Mu helped me kill this thief, I am already very grateful, why should I trouble you to send me back? I can go back by myself."
"Do you know where this is? It's the middle of the night, and you, a young and beautiful girl, are walking on the road. It won't take long for you to be dragged away and raped. I just rescued you from a bad guy, and I don't want to see you being kidnapped by another bad guy. I heard that a girl was kidnapped here two days ago, and her family went to look for her and only found her shattered limbs. She was too whole to be put together." Mu Changqing smiled faintly, but his words were very scary. Obviously he wanted to scare Shu Shichu, and he was determined to send her back to the inn.
Shu Shichu couldn't win the fight, and couldn't escape either, so she had to agree: "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Mu." She bowed to Mu Changqing.
Mu Changqing smiled and was about to ask her to walk in front while he escorted her from behind, but he suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the ground, unconscious.
Shu Shichu kicked the hero and saw that he had indeed fainted. He chuckled and said, "I was stupid to ask you to take me back. I won't let a wolf into my house! I can't beat you, so why should I use the drug to make you faint?"
After saying that, she jumped out of the house and in the blink of an eye, she was already a hundred meters away. She flew past in the darkness like a swift swallow without making any sound.
Not long after, she returned to the inn where she was staying.
It was still dark at this time, but Shu Shichu had no intention of continuing to sleep. The flower thief had been dealt with, so she could not continue to show off. It would be troublesome to get in trouble with those playboys, and she did not want to be entangled by playboys.
Shu Shichu was determined to keep a low profile, so he took out his camouflage tools and disguised himself as a beautiful but not very eye-catching woman. There were many such women in the world, so he was not afraid of attracting other people's attention.
Now she is just Zhan Chu, a woman who has just entered the world of society, and not Shu Shi Chu from the Shu family.
After changing her appearance, Shu Shichu did not stay in the inn. She packed her things, rode her horse at night, left the inner city, and waited at the city gate.
There were actually some shacks built by the people near the city gate, where the poor lived. Shu Shichu arrived here and found an empty corner, intending to leave after the city gate opened at dawn.
Mu Changqing, who was drugged by her and passed out, finally woke up after being unconscious for half an hour. When he woke up, he found himself still lying on the ground, and not far away was the body of the flower thief who died with his eyes open.
His face suddenly turned dark, and he quickly stood up, patted his clothes, and cursed Shu Shichu bitterly: "This woman is so cruel, I clearly helped her, but she turned her kindness into revenge and knocked me out. Isn't she afraid that the flower thief's accomplices will come back during this period and take the opportunity to kill me?"
After getting annoyed, he found it funny again: "This girl is quite alert. She actually drugged me! I was careless. If she really had bad intentions towards me, my life would be in danger."
Mu Changqing glanced at the flower thief's body, cut off his head, and planned to go to the government to collect the reward after dawn.
This flower thief committed many evil deeds, but his ability to escape was very good, which made it impossible for the government to catch him. Therefore, they had to offer a large reward, hoping that some martial artists would help him out. However, many martial artists were helpless against him. After all, in addition to escaping, he was also very good at disguising himself, which made it even more difficult to catch him.
It was also a coincidence that Mu Changqing was able to kill him this time. He had noticed him during the day and thought his body shape and movements were very similar to those of the flower thief Zhou Xinlang, so he followed him.
Who knew that when they followed him, they found out that he was also following a woman and was planning to do something bad. This made Mu Changqing more certain that he was a flower thief, so when he kidnapped Shu Shichu in the middle of the night, Mu Changqing took action.
However, Mu Changqing did not expect that the woman that the flower thief was targeting was no pushover and could actually successfully knock him out. You have to know that he has profound internal strength and ordinary drugs cannot knock him out. This woman named Zhan Chu is really capable.
