Naza seemed completely unresponsive, standing there with a shy expression...
Li Zhu casually picked up the teapot from the table and threw it at the assassin behind Nazha, making her realize that she had just been almost killed...
At this point, she realized that Shi Min never intended for her to actually agree. Regardless of the final outcome, the other party would take action against her, using her as a hostage to force her to obey…
She never expected Shi Min to be so vicious. The two of them had agreed that she would come alone, and he had made some arrangements before entering to make sure she didn't bring anyone with her. She never expected that he would still have arranged for someone to deal with her...
If Li Zhu hadn't intervened in time, she might have been killed...
"Nazha, what are you thinking about? Shouldn't we eliminate the enemy first?"
Li Zhu said irritably!
After being reprimanded by Li Zhu, Nazha was also a little angry. She thought to herself, "It's all your fault! You insisted on calling me your woman, which made me so happy that I forgot everything, and I almost got killed..."
"How dare you yell at me..."
Naza glared at Li Zhu with a hint of annoyance, then casually drew her curved sword from her waist and swiftly killed the assassin who had just attacked her…
Li Zhu's lips twitched uncontrollably as he watched. If Yingying were to say those words aloud, it would definitely arouse a man's protective instincts...
But when a woman who just moments ago blew someone's head off is now acting all cute and throwing a tantrum at you, don't you feel a surge of protective instincts?
It gives people a sense of threat, like, "How dare you yell at me? Believe me, I'll kill you..."
This reminded Li Zhu of the desert butcher from his past life, a man with a cute appearance but hands capable of shearing a sheep in eight minutes…
This title is a waste for that internet celebrity; it should be given to Gulnazar. She is a true desert butcher. While others can kill a sheep in eight minutes, Gulnazar can kill a person in three seconds…
"I'm worried about you..."
Li Zhu quickly explained!
Naza's face was slightly flushed; it was hard to tell if it was a normal expression after killing someone, or if she was just shy from Li Zhu's sweet words…
The fight inside the room didn't last long. Even though these assassins were well-trained, they were only good at dealing with ordinary people. He and Naza were certainly not strong enough to be hurt by these small fry!
Unfortunately, Shi Min escaped in the end. Of course, this was intentional on Li Zhu's part. Shi Min was supposed to leave with Shi Le, but he turned back halfway, probably because Shi Hu heard some news from Shi Le...
Shi Le knew that the Book of the Zodiac was with him, but the other party did not explicitly tell Shi Min. Presumably, Shi Le's real purpose was to rescue Consort Zhu!
It's just a pity for Shi Min; this trip is definitely fraught with danger, and whether he can rescue Consort Zhu is truly uncertain...
"Brother Zhu, why did you let Shi Min leave alive? He was trying to take advantage of me..."
Naza looked at Li Zhu with a puzzled expression and asked!
"Don't worry, they won't live much longer..."
Li Zhu said nonchalantly, "I released Shi Hu back so that the Jie tribe would never be able to rise again!"
"Let's go back now..."
Li Zhu pulled Nazha out of the room, but as soon as they opened the door, they heard a waiter running out in a panic...
"What's wrong?"
Li Zhu grabbed him and asked, puzzled, what was making him so flustered...
"Murder!"
The waiter tried to shout, but his throat seemed to be sealed shut, and only a faint sound came out…
He then looked into the room behind Li Zhu and saw corpses lying haphazardly on the floor, several heads rolled over. This sight terrified him so much that he fainted and collapsed to the ground...
"What a coward..."
Li Zhu said helplessly, then looked at a room not far away and found the madam's body in a corner...
He said there was a faint smell of blood; it turned out the madam had been murdered…
Just then, they heard applause coming from the first floor, which immediately piqued the women's curiosity. Nazha pulled Li Zhu to the railing...
At this moment, one could see the crowd below, like stars surrounding the moon, gazing up at Qinglu...
"This woman is really beautiful..."
Naza couldn't help but say enviously!
In my heart, you are the most beautiful woman in the world…
At this moment, Li Zhu's emotional intelligence suddenly came online, and he replied without the slightest hesitation!
These words made Nazha blush again, and she leaned shyly on Li Zhu's shoulder...
This scene caught the attention of a discerning eye, who thought to themselves, "No wonder these two handsome men didn't ask the ladies to pour them tea; they simply didn't like women. What a waste of such good looks..."
Li Zhu had no idea what others were thinking. At that moment, he suddenly felt that Qinglu seemed to have glanced in their direction, which made him a little puzzled. Could it be that even from such a distance, the other party could hear his voice?
"Gentlemen, wealth is but an external thing to me. What I value is not gold and silver. I have a riddle here. If anyone can solve it, I will gladly accept him as my guest. I will certainly prepare my bed and wait for him..."
Qinglu's voice rang out, silencing everyone. As soon as she finished speaking, a young man stepped forward and said...
"Don't worry, I will definitely solve this problem today..."
Upon hearing the voice, Li Zhu instinctively looked over and discovered it was a familiar face—Jiang Moyan, the grandson of Grand Tutor Jiang!
This is interesting, I actually ran into him here...
"Nazha, do you want to see me perform?"
Li Zhu wouldn't admit that he wanted to get closer to the courtesan. Even though he was emotionally unintelligent, he knew he couldn't show interest in another woman in front of someone he liked…
Although Li Zhu's principle in love is to adapt to circumstances, he still has his own bottom line...
"Are you sure you can solve the courtesan's problem?"
Naza looked at her suspiciously; her woman's intuition told her that Li Zhu's motives were impure...
"She's just a woman; I don't believe she could pose any difficult questions that would stump me..."
Li Zhu said confidently!
Qinglu seemed to have overheard this, and her gaze towards him now held a dangerous glint…
"But my main purpose is to make things difficult for this Jiang Moyan. You have no idea how he used to bully me. Relying on his connection to the Second Prince, he often humiliated me. Today, I'll show him what I'm capable of..."
Hearing Li Zhu's words and seeing him put on the mask, Nazha knew she couldn't stop him, so she nodded and said...
"I hope this play is exciting enough..."
Li Zhu grinned and said
"Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down..."
Before Li Zhu could even come downstairs, a huge white cloth fell from the middle of the first floor. Li Zhu was stunned when he saw what was on it, because he recognized it all too well…
