Chapter 27.2: Are You Going To Offer Yourself In Marriage?
[What is there to be so shy about! ? He is a man!]
[The young lady had not even shown any bashfulness and here he was acting all shy. Really, even he was beginning to despise himself.]
Mu Chi was feeling rather depressed. He had lost the person just like that.
"But….. At least he got to know her name….. Su Yan. What a nice sounding name."
He tried to comfort and rea.s.sure himself for awhile and then walked out from the alley. The sun was setting over the western horizon. Mm. Time to find a winehouse for a few drinks.
After Qing Yu shook off her tail, she did not go in through the front door but just sprung herself straight up to leap atop a wall, and stood high up there to watch the foolish lad walk a far distance away before she blew out a breath in relief.
[Fortunately he did not follow all the way up here.]
"Young Master Qing?"
The past few days had been rather good for Bai Zhi Yan. As the Lord was feeling much better, his mood had naturally become better.
It had been especially easy to talk to Lou Jun Yao these past few days. Like now, he had just suggested to the Lord to go out for a walk to familiarize themselves with the surroundings and the latter had agreed to it so readily.
The two of them had just come out from that sealed room not too long and they've spotted a figure crouched furtively atop the wall.
The Gathered Cloud Loft's construction had a unique layout and even that wall was quite a bit higher than those in most manors.
And their walls were built with special materials, completely smooth and slippery. No need to mention crouching on top of the wall, most people would not even be able to scale that wall at all.
That's right, and some time ago, Lian Ji had told him that this particular little Young Master had a strange habit of not using the front door, but liked to enter by leaping over the walls.
Hence, when Bai Zhi Yan saw the back of that figure, he had immediately been able to recognize it.
Once he spoke, Lou Jun Yao had naturally noticed it as well. The little figure on the wall, a tiny person curled up in a ball, crouched high up above, looking rather adorable and amusing.
But, Qing Yu's attention had been focused on whether that persistent lad had left or not and in the end, someone had called out to her out of the blue, and her body had jumped from the sudden shock, her foot slipping out under her.
Lou Jun Yao's eyes narrowed when he saw that the small figure was going to fall from above and he suddenly stretched his hand out. A gentle force suddenly held onto her, slowing her descent, till she landed safely on the ground.
Qing Yu was astounded for a moment, before she raised her head to nod her head at Lou Jun Yao with a smile. "Thank you."
"It's no trouble. As long as you're fine." Lou Jun Yao then raised an eyebrow, his pair of violet eyes deep. "You have come here for…..?"
"I had some matters to attend to in the past few days and I was so busy I forgot I was supposed to come over. In the end, I had just stepped out through my doors when I encountered a pesky fella." Qing Yu's face was one of helplessness as she opened her palms to say. "I really cannot be too kind. The next time I see anyone being pursued or poisoned by their enemies, I must not let myself save them without thinking."
Lou Jun Yao's gaze paused a moment, and his voice then let out a deep laugh. "Then I have been most fortunate that I was saved by you before that."
Qing Yu blinked her eyes. "You're different."
Lou Jun Yao's demeanour appeared slightly taken aback. "Different?"
"That's right! You're a creditor. I owed you a debt and I cannot refuse to save you!" Qing Yu said jokingly. "Do you have water? I'm dying of thirst. I had to really chatter on for quite a bit earlier."
As she spoke, she walked past the two men, and just went straight inside.
Qing Yu's had always been a candid character and having been here so many times, she had grown to become familiar with the people here.
Added to that was her excellent disguise as a male, possessing an extraordinary air, blessed with Heavenly allure. They were all mostly female inside, and everytime she came here, they all crowded around her like bees to honey, a kind of charm that even Bai Zhi Yan had to admit defeat to.
In the room, Bai Zhi Yan then took up guard by the door.
