Chapter 339: Going Out Disguised 4

Seeing that Gu Cheng and Xiao Wuji were finally interested in dealing with this seriously, Young Master Han then slowly said, “So, I just want to ask your sister. As long as there’s a little clue, it’s good.”
Gu Cheng turned his head and glanced at the round-face who was feasting on the chicken drumstick seriously. If he asked her, he definitely would not get any useful information. He asked Xingtao seriously, “Xingtao, did a grand master show up here?”
Seeing that the few people were very serious, Xingtao recalled the situation at that time, then said, “To answer the Second Young Master’s question, no.”
Gu Cheng said, “Then did you get a good look at the person who threw the chopsticks?”
“The young lady and I were surrounded by people in the middle. We were exhausted from giving it our all, so there was no time to pay attention to the people around us.”
As Gu Shanshan’s personal maid and part-time bodyguard, Xingtao had a colder temperament and was not as lively as the Young Lady, but she seldom talked nonsense. “If it really was a person of grand master level who intervened, I think that Master should obtain clues from the crowd of onlookers at that time.”
Gu Cheng was in deep thought.
Xiao Wuji said, “What Xingtao said makes a lot of sense.”
“…” Young Master Han glanced at the small, round-faced chubby girl who kept chewing on the chicken drumstick. He felt a dilemma and thought to himself, ‘You’re already so fat, and you’re still eating!’ However, that person seemed to be Gu Cheng’s younger sister. If Gu Cheng did not ask her, it was not good for him to question her either. Young Master Han said helplessly, “But I have asked many people on my way up, and they all said there was no one in the crowd who looked enigmatic, or with an over-the-top grandeur, or… anyone worth taking note of.”
This was…
It seemed that nothing was said, but it actually provided a lot of clues.
Xiao Wuji thought very deeply for a moment, then said, “It seems that this grand master-level powerhouse knows how to go back to the basics.”
Gu Cheng said, “Or they dressed very ordinarily.”
Young Master Han listened to what the two of them said and a thought flashed in his mind. He added, “Or, they just look very ordinary, so they didn’t attract anyone’s attention.”
Subsequently, the three of them looked at each other.
Young Master Han murmured, “The person should be a middle-aged person, or an elderly person, right?” It should not be possible for a young person to reach the level of grand master. Perhaps it was one of the rank nines who had broken through to that level.
Xiao Wuji nodded. “Probably.”
Young Master Han casted a glance at Gu Shanshan again, with a silent expression that suggested he wanted to pry open the girl’s again to ask something.
Gu Cheng subtly put himself between the man and the little round face who was eating chicken drumsticks. “Young Master Han, even if you stay here tonight, I’m afraid you won’t get any useful information.”
Young Master Han retracted his gaze and smiled faintly. “No, at least now I know that the grand master is quite old. They look ordinary and dress simply, so they don’t attract anyone’s attention.”
Gu Cheng did not add anything to that.
Xiao Wuji did not speak either.
Young Master Han knew that he would get nothing from asking more if he stayed.
“Many thanks to the both of you.” He cupped his fist slightly and said politely, “The grudge between your sister and my sister is just two little girls goofing around. Brother Gu’s younger sister is also injured, so I’ll extend my apology here first. When I head back, I’ll ask someone to send a present to the Hot Mountain Springs Villa to Young Lady Gu to make amends, do you think it’s alright?”
Gu Cheng’s eyes were half-cast. “Just this once.”
“Although I don’t know why that grandmaster helped Young Lady Gu, if something happens to Young Lady Gu next time, and they helped the Young Lady again…” Young Master Han did not express the remaining words, but the meaning was very clear. “Brother Gu should help keep an eye on the whereabouts of the grand master.”
Gu Cheng uttered a single syllable through his nose, “Hmph!”
Young Master Han smiled and waved goodbye, then led his people down the stairs hurriedly.
When he reached the second floor, he took another look at the mess of tables and chairs that had not been cleaned up.
Young Master Han suddenly noticed something strange.
There was a strange black spot on the opposite wall.
He walked to the opposite wall in quick steps, fixing his gaze on the black spot.
“Sir?” A servant said in confusion.
Young Master Han stared at the black spot on the wall silently.
That was not that the wall was dirty.
That black spot was…a chopstick, directly implanted in the wall.
It was probably the handiwork of the grand master this afternoon.
Young Master Han retracted his gaze.
He led his people down the stairs in silence.
The squire said confusedly, “My lord, it’s obvious the Young Lady Han’s injuries are more serious, but you still intend to make amends to the Gu Family. If the Young Lady finds out she’d be furious.”
“What do you know!” Young Master Han cast a sidelong glance at the people around him, his expression turning brooding. “The grand master intervened, but did not help us who are from Qingzhou City, and instead helped the chubby girl! We don’t know what’s the correlation between the two. But it is conceivable that the grand master may have a subtle stance on things.”
The squire said, “Logically, the grand master should be from Qingzhou City. No, even if they’re not from Qingzhou City, they should be someone from Northern Liang. Why would they help someone from Eastern Ling? My lord, this is really strange.”
Before this, everyone was sure that the grand master must be someone from Northern Liang or Qingzhou City. However, now that he thought about it… perhaps the person was a foreigner who resided in Qingzhou City.
Young Master Han sighed. “The State Preceptor has arrived in Qingzhou City. When I head back, I’ll have to inform the State Preceptor and the Head Grand Secretariat of this matter.”
After speaking to himself, he recalled that the corpse collector also knew about this matter.
Young Master Han’s face darkened instantly. He ordered, “No, go report immediately!”
The squire nodded hastily.
Then, he took some people and left first.
Young Master Han looked at the remaining squires and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. “If we’re late, with the State Preceptor’s temperament, I’m afraid we’ll be punished for withholding information.”
The squires, “…” Was the State Preceptor so…cruel?
…
…
Qi Qingyao, who knew nothing about the matters that happened afterward, was strolling with Si Jin. They did not get to eat in Zuixian Restaurant, but she was a little excited after watching a good show.
Si Jin pointed to a certain restaurant on the coast of Qingyang Lake. “Sister, let’s go eat there.”
There were not many people, but it looked like a very refined and elegant restaurant.
Qi Qingyao glanced at the name of the restaurant. “Qiangjinjiu Bar (Invitation to Wine)?”
She liked the name!
“Okay, we’ll go there.”
When the two of them walked to the entrance, however, they were stopped once again.
The guard at the entrance glanced at their outfits and looks. In short, they were two extremely ordinary people from head to toe…
“What? There’s also a membership system here?” Qi Qingyao, who was stopped, could not help but say in a mocking tone.
“No.” The guard was fairly polite, and immediately lowered his head in apology!
Then, he said in a slightly apologetic but serious manner. “Ma’am, I’m sorry but, you may have a little difficulty with the spending levels of our shop…”
Huh?
He actually gave us the cold shoulder because we looked and dressed ordinarily!
She could tolerate everything, but she could not tolerate this!
Qi Qingyao gave a meaningful look to Si Jin in annoyance, and Si Jin immediately took out a stack of paper money in his arms.
The… appearance of immense wealth.
Made the guard’s eyes widen.
“My apologies, we were too rude just now. Dear guests! Please come in!”
They were granted access immediately.
Qi Qingyao did not expect their attitudes to take a 180-degree turn on the spot when they learned that the two of them were rich people…
She seemed to have a hard time comprehending this…
She was stunned for a moment before she walked in with Si Jin with her head held high.
At this moment, Qi Qingyao did not know that Qiangjinjiu Bar was Tan Xiangdie’s turf! It was also the headquarters of the Ghost Organization of Wangyue Administration in Qingzhou City…
…
…
After entering, Qi Qingyao was shocked by the environment. The style of decoration was very… elegant! It also had a hint of an exquisite taste.
The white veils hanging between the pillars of the eaves of the veranda were fluttering in the wind, making the whole restaurant have a kind of…vaguely romantic atmosphere.
Was this even a frickin restaurant?
The atmosphere was clearly one of a… brothel!
However, the guests were very “well-behaved”.
The guests were all surrounding the low table. Some were drinking tea together, some were drinking and having meals together, there were some hugging and kissing girls, some even playing chess…
This…
For some reason, Qi Qingyao thought of scholars drinking tea and wine, and reciting poetry against each other in the Wei and Jin dynasties.
Qi Qingyao and Si Jin also picked out a corner. They sat on the futons and ordered some food and wine.
After the food and wine were served, Qi Qingyao leaned back in her seat and complained in a small voice while eating. “Why do I feel that we picked the wrong restaurant?”
“It’s not bad here, it’s very quiet.” Si Jin was eating a snack.
Qi Qingyao drank the restaurant’s house wine and said, “It’s just too quiet, I’m not used to it.” The wine was not bad, though.
Si Jin snickered, “Sister likes the atmosphere of Zuixian Restaurant just now…”
Before Qi Qingyao could answer, she suddenly saw a man in red walking down the stairs while hugging a girl in green. The girl in green was charming and affectionate and the man in red laughed insolently. His laughter reverberated in the restaurant for a long time.
Qi Qingyao puckered her lips and said, “Look, the man in red over there is dressed so flamboyantly.”
Si Jin looked up.
He could not help but chuckle.
Qi Qingyao sighed. “Is this place a brothel or a restaurant?”
Si Jin muttered, “I think it’s a combination of both.”
Qi Qingyao shook her head, feeling like she had entered the wrong place. It was too quiet to be a restaurant. However, there were no girls singing for it to be a brothel. If she had to make a conclusion, this was a place more suitable for meetings!
Tan Xiangdie hugged the girl down the stairs and patrolled the shop as usual.
In the end, he saw two new faces in the corner at once, and…these new faces looked… Well, he would not remember them if saw them again in a crowd.
There had never been such “interesting” customers in his shop before.
After taking a few steps, Tan Xiangdie raised his brows.
These were faces that were disguised…
He was the head of Wangyue Administration and was proficient in infiltration and undercover. He was thoroughly familiar with all kinds of disguise methods.
Although the two people in front of him had excellent disguise techniques, unfortunately… they still could not escape his sharp eyes.
Tan Xiangdie was suddenly curious about the two customers. What was their reason for disguise, and why did they come to his shop?.
“Dear guests, does the food and wine in the shop suit your tastes?” Tan Xiangdie stepped forward and nodded slightly. He put away his usual romantic teasing and said very seriously.
Qi Qingyao raised her brows. This motherf*cker turned out to be the shopkeeper?
