Chapter 173 Passing By



...

Knowing that Qi Lan had successfully left the city, Wei Qinghe then turned her attention to Fang Buwei and Wan Yunsheng.

As expected, the two successfully slipped away through the back door of the clinic.

While using the restroom, they also used the beauty pill, and after changing their clothes, they emerged as two delicate young women.

The waiter who was keeping watch passed by them without recognizing them.

To avoid attracting attention, the two bought quite a few things that the woman liked along the way, and even swaggered past the inn.

Since both of them were carrying a lot of things, Xiao Meng didn't invite them into the store when she came out.

Just then, a luxurious spirit beast carriage came towards them.

There was even a small squad of guards on each side of the spirit beast carriage, which clearly indicated that it was the travel of an important person.

It was like the entrance of a mortal emperor, or the entrance of a powerful immortal sect leader.

The smile on Wan Yunsheng's face had vanished, replaced by fear and unease in his eyes.

Fang Buwei, being experienced in the ways of the world, immediately grabbed Wan Yunsheng's shoulder and turned to face the stall next to him.

Xiao Meng swayed her hips and awkwardly raised her hand, "The young master is here."

Wan Liang'an, dressed in fine clothes, stepped out of the spirit beast carriage with a smug look on his face. "Boss Xiao."

Because Wei Qinghe's divine sense was following Fang Buwei, she happened to see Wan Liang'an's pretentious outing.

Those who didn't know better might think he was already the head of the Wan family.

"I have come under orders." Wan Liang'an's gaze inappropriately lingered on Xiao Meng.

Xiao Meng's smile remained unchanged, as if she hadn't noticed anything, and she continued to lead the way politely and warmly.

"Please come in, young master."

"Ms. Xiao, you still have a lot of charm," Wan Liang'an said, leaning closer to Xiao Meng in a voice only the two of them could hear.

However, Wei Qinghe overheard these words.

Wei Qinghe felt that Wan Liang'an really didn't discriminate against anyone, even trying to seduce Xiao Meng, who was quite old.

However, since Wan Liang'an has only just returned to the Azure Sea Continent, he needs the support of various forces to maintain his position as the head of the Wan family. Therefore, making connections with various parties seems to be a good idea.

However, Xiao Meng, who seems so open-minded, probably doesn't think much of Wan Liang'an.

"Young Master is also very elegant. Please come in, Young Master. The Palace Master is waiting."

Although she still had a smile on her face, her tone was noticeably colder.

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Wan Anliang's eyes, but his tone remained relatively polite.

"Thank you for leading the way, Mr. Xiao."

Wei Qinghe's divine sense was not able to follow them close to the Palace Master of Qingyu Palace, so she could only watch Fang Buwei leave with Wan Yunsheng.

Wan Yunsheng stared at Wan Liang'an's retreating figure, her eyes reddening.

If he could, he really wanted to go up and stab Wan Liang'an to death with a sword.

...

After withdrawing her divine sense, Wei Qinghe immediately opened her eyes.

Hurry footsteps sounded outside the door, "Hurry, hurry, it's almost time."

The waiter's eager voice was tinged with excitement.

Wei Qinghe opened the door and leaned against the door frame, feigning weakness.

The waiter who had been standing guard at the door showed a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw her open the door and come out.

"What do you need, guests? The food will be served shortly."

Wei Qinghe cleared her throat. "I'm a little thirsty. Could you bring me some water? Haven't my younger brother and sister come back yet?"

The waiter paused for a moment, seemingly lost in thought, then immediately shook his head and said, "They haven't returned yet. But they should be back soon, since the clinic isn't far from here."

He seemed absolutely certain that the person would obediently return.

"Guests need not worry."

Wei Qinghe feigned concern, and her delicate, swaying appearance didn't seem like she was faking it.

However, at that moment, she took the opportunity to release a rat made of a talisman.

Mice and paper cranes function similarly, except one flies in the sky and the other scurries on the ground.

"Please keep an eye on them, they're unfamiliar with the area, I'm worried about them not coming back, and I'm not feeling well either..."

Seeing his reaction, a dark glint flashed in the waiter's eyes.

"Guest, this is probably a normal reaction to the change in environment. You just need to rest more. I'll have someone go look for those guests later. Don't worry, Haichao City isn't big, they won't get lost."

As he spoke, he deliberately looked around, as if trying to confirm something.

"Guest, let me escort you back to your room to rest."

As he spoke, he disregarded Wei Qinghe's wishes, stepped over the threshold, helped her up with one hand, and closed the door with the other.

As soon as the door closed, all the light seemed to be extinguished.

It was like entering two different worlds.

However, the waiter's voice had a strange tone. "Sir, I know how to serve people. Since you're not feeling well, why don't you let me take good care of you?"
