Chapter 73
When they went out, the janitor stared at the two of them suspiciously, and went up to meet them wonderingly, wondering when this guest came and why he hadn't seen them before.
I heard Hang Shiqi say in his familiar voice: "Let's go out for a while and come back in the afternoon. If the healing priest comes early, please tell him for us."
"You, honored guest?" The doorman looked at the two of them vigorously, wondering why they dressed up like this, but he didn't dare to ask further, for fear of breaking a taboo, so he could only suppress his excess curiosity and nodded: "Okay of."
The south building is built near the water, with white walls and blue tiles, and gallery cornices. It doesn't look like a building, but more like pavilions stacked on top of each other.The part enclosed in the middle of the first floor is the kitchen, and it is for guests to eat from the second floor upwards.
There is no private room here, the seats are facing the river view, surrounded by blue river water, ducks and geese flocks in the water, and birds chirping in the distance, sitting upstairs, you don't hear the hustle and bustle of the city, just listen to the murmur of water.
But Hang Shiqi didn't care about this, he was slobbering at the moment, staring at the roast goose that was just served in front of him.
The fragrant roast goose is browned and crispy on the outside, the gravy is plump and juicy, exuding a tempting aroma that makes the mouth water.
Hang Shiqi rubbed his hands together, without taking the chopsticks, he reached out to grab the roast goose.Suddenly, the back of his hand was tapped lightly with chopsticks.
It didn't hurt, Hang Shiqi felt a little baffled, raised his head and asked, "Why?"
Ao Wu teased him with a bit of teasing in his eyes: "There are no rules, your young master didn't move, so you ate it first."
It took Hang Shiqi a full three seconds to react before he realized that Ao Wu was still playing the role of the young master and servant, tsk, he was quite addicted to the drama.
Hang Shiqi cooperatively picked up the soup spoon and gave it to Ao Wu, put it in front of Ao Wu with a clatter, and spilled a lot of soup carelessly: "Master, please drink the soup, you are just recovering from a serious illness, you can't eat greasy food I will cook this plate of roast goose for you."
As he spoke, Hang Shiqi pulled the roast goose in front of him, and pushed two plates of white-cut chicken towards Ao Wu: "You eat this."
Ao Wu doesn't have much desire for food, it doesn't matter whether it is light or rich, it doesn't matter if it is born, as long as it can fill his stomach and replenish his strength.But looking at Hang Shiqi's gloating expression, Ao Wu couldn't help reaching out and pinching his face, pretending to be displeased: "You know I can't eat, but you still bring me here? That's how you take care of me."
Hang Shiqi picked up a piece of roast goose and stuffed it into his mouth, and said twice in front of Ao Wu: "Although you can't eat it, I can show you.
"
"Alright." Ao Wu laughed lowly, his sharp eyebrows were bent, and the frost and snow melted, leaving only a pool of spring water, which was full of Hang Shiqi's shadow.He really watched Hang Shiqi finish the whole plate of roast goose by himself.
Hang Shiqi's little conscience ached a little: "It's delicious. I'll pack another one for you and put it in a food box. Let's eat it when you recover from your injury."
"En." Ao Wu did not reject Hang Shiqi's kindness, although he reckoned that the packed roast goose would probably end up in Hang Shiqi's belly.
Hang Shiqi got up to greet the waiter in the store, but he didn't think about saying a word, but when he turned his head, he saw a strange man approaching Ao Wu.
Hang Shiqi immediately became vigilant, turned around and walked back. Before he reached the table, he saw the strange man sitting opposite Ao Wu, taking his own seat: "This gentleman looks so handsome, he came alone Is it?"
Hang Shiqi's eyes suddenly widened!Unexpectedly, someone poached him, the corner!
In the past, Ao Jing always said that there were many people chasing Ao Wu in the northern border, but Hang Shiqi didn't feel too real. Probably in Ao Wu's identity, even if someone liked him, not many people dared to come to him so directly.Hang Shiqi may have seen only one Frost Moon.
But when Shuangyue was rejected by Ao Wu, Hang Shiqi didn't have any thoughts about Ao Wu in his heart, he was just watching the fun and eating melons.Unlike now, when I ate the roast goose without dipping it in vinegar, the sour taste in my heart was already gurgling out.
Seemingly smelling the sour smell, Ao Wu cast a funny glance at Hang Shiqi, and replied to the person sitting in front of him, "No."
Perhaps the lingering smile in Ao Wu's eyes gave the other party the illusion that the man who struck up a conversation did not leave, but instead introduced himself: "My name is Li Ruo, can I ask your name, sir?"
"No." Ao Wu buckled his knuckles impatiently on the edge of the table, feeling that Li Ruo's name sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Ao Wu looked at the man in front of him. He had a charming figure, and sat twisted in Hang Shiqi's position, with his elbows resting on the table, revealing his extremely thin arms. He was also thin, with a slender frame.The chin is pointed, and the facial features are exquisite but not weak, but rather seductive.
Ao Wu finally remembered the identity of the other party until he saw the pair of yellow-brown snake eyes.The snake beauty is Liruo, Yun Wuzhen once told him about him.
When it's time to tell it's a story.He said that there is a young man from the Flower Snake clan in Nanxia. This man is not particularly beautiful, but he is very good at seducing people. He is a female, so he likes to pick on handsome and rich males.
Several men he married.One is more handsome and richer than the other, and the other is shorter-lived.What's even more amazing is that even so, there are still desperate men who are bewitched by Li Ruo.Fighting to defend him, saying that he is just a poor man with bad luck.It is his partners who are short-lived themselves, and has nothing to do with him.
"He is pitiful? How can he be pitiful? You say that the money he makes from marrying someone once can catch up with my Yuntian Pavilion's annual turnover in Nanxia." Ao Wu remembered that Yun Wuzhen complained like this at the time.
So this snake beauty is planning to attack her?Do you look like a short-lived and lustful young master who is stupid and has a lot of money?Ao Wu felt that this fact was a bit absurd.
"Mr. is so unfeeling." Li Ruo lowered his eyes, as if he was hurt by his rejection, but soon approached Ao Wu across the table, and asked with concern: "Why is Mr. in a wheelchair? Is it inconvenient?"
"It has nothing to do with you. The seat is occupied, please leave." Ao Wu said with a frown.He didn't intend to have anything to do with this snake beauty outside the South Summer Festival.Ao Wu didn't even want to ask what kind of person the other party was, whether he killed his husband or not.This is Nan Xia's business, and the person who should worry about it is Miao Sheng.
"Sir, do you mean the boy standing there stupidly? I just watched it for a long time, and he looks okay, but he doesn't seem to be very good at taking care of people, he is gluttonous, and his temper is not very good. Could it be that he is watching Mister is weak, is the slave bullying the master?" Li Ruo glanced towards Hang Shiqi with the end of his eyes, just as Hang Shiqi was staring at him, he hooked the corner of his mouth provocatively at Hang Shiqi, and smiled again Stick it on Ao Wu's body.
"Sir, you might as well think about me. I'm much more considerate than your boy. I can not only take care of you, but also make you happy." He stood on one leg and kneeled on the seat with his body pressed against The tabletop, like a crawling snake, almost got down on the tabletop, its face was very close to Ao Wu, and his hands frivolously touched Ao Wu's face.
"Bang!" Hang Shiqi kicked hard on the stool with one foot and bumped into the socket of the leg that Li Ruo was standing on. He was originally kneeling on the stool in this posture and his center of gravity was unstable. Then he turned upside down, almost sitting on his back on the ground.
Hang Shiqi raised his chin, bared two small canine teeth, and asked viciously, "Who do you want to make happy?"
"You're a servant, you dare to do something to me?" Li Ruo stood up dissatisfied, and the snake pupils stood up.
"Dare, after all, I have a bad temper, I'm greedy, and I don't know how to take care of others. I even dare to bully my young master. You are an outsider, so I have nothing to dare." Hang Shiqi rolled up his sleeves, looking serious. The state of fighting.
"Sir, your servant is too fierce, don't you want to teach me?" Li Ruo complained softly, rubbing her hurt leg.
fierce? "Ao Wu looked at Hang Shiqi, who was grinning, and felt that he was too cute. He knew that Hang Shiqi was just shouting fiercely, and his physical fitness was good.
He held Hang Shiqi's hand with one hand, pulled him into his arms, and gently patted Hang Shiqi's back with the other hand, and smoothed his hair: "I'm pet, I like all his looks."
Hang Shiqi was still angry at first, but when he heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up again, remembering that he was still angry, he tried his best to suppress it, maintaining his majestic and solemn expression, and bullyingly taught him a lesson Ao Wulai: "Who is this? Why are you so unruly? I only left for a few seconds, and you were flirting outside!"
Listening to Hang Shiqi's complaint, Ao Wu's eyes were full of tenderness.Hang Shiqi was tempted later than him, and he usually behaved very slowly. Ao Wu once suspected that the other party didn't treat him as much as he liked him.Seeing Hang Shiqi's jealous look, instead of being angry, Ao Wu was secretly happy.
Ao Wu didn't dare to show this joy too obviously, fearing that he would run away with his little fried hair essence, so he could only coax him in a low voice: "Can you be reasonable, I have never paid attention to him."
"You agreed, I saw it all, you said a few words to him and smiled at him! Hang Shiqi poured out the vinegar in his stomach.
"I answered him out of politeness, and smiled because I saw you." Ao Wu stretched Hang Shiqi's clenched fingers one by one, and inserted his hand between the other's fingers.Turned into a gesture of interlocking fingers, and after confirming that the person could not run away, he asked, "Were you jealous just now?"
Hang Shiqi puffed his cheeks, and answered irrelevantly, "I'm also jealous now."
Ao Wu touched his lips with his hands, and couldn't help but chuckle twice.He was always said to be unsmiling and cold as ice.Suddenly found that after getting along with Hang Shiqi for a long time, it is quite difficult not to smile: "Don't eat it, the vinegar is not good, let's go home and eat chicken legs, huh?"
"That's fine." Hang Shiqi brought over the roast goose that he wanted to pack, and he didn't want to continue to enjoy Li Ruo's performance here, so he walked around behind Ao Wu and left with his wheelchair.During this period, he didn't give Li Ruo half a look.
After leaving, Hang Shiqi couldn't help asking Ao Wu curiously: "Who is he? Do you know him?"
Ao Wu leaned on the wheelchair and replied: "The beauty of the snake is Liruo. He is very famous in Nanxia. He has married six times in total. From a wealthy businessman to a lord, the more he marries, the higher he gets. Coincidentally, all six husbands are dead. , the longest one lived for less than a year, and the shortest one lived for three days."
"Did he kill it?" Hang Shiqi asked.
Ao Wu: "Even if it wasn't murder, it has something to do with him."
"Then there are still people who dare to want him?" The more Hang Qiqi thought about it, the more strange he became: "No, he killed so many people without being discovered?"
"It's not that no one found out, it's that he has no suspicion at all." The two of them had already walked to the door of the inn before they knew it, and the janitor brother became extra energetic when he heard the gossip, and dragged Hang Shiqi to talk endlessly: "This matter It’s so mysterious, some of these six people disappeared for no reason, some fell off a cliff by accident, some were poisoned by their enemies, and some were silenced by robbers. The causes of death were different, but every time, he picked one of them. Erjing, there is no suspicion at all. If every one of his husbands hadn't died, no one would think he was suspected. Even now, there are still many people complaining about him, thinking that he is just unlucky."
"Could it be really bad luck?" Hang Shiqi was confused.
"How is it possible, six people! If you marry him, all of them will die. How can there be such a coincidence? I don't know if this person will have some kind of evil magic. Maybe if he casts such a curse, something bad will happen to the other party. Then all the other party's money will belong to him."
Hang Shiqi was a little scared when he heard that, he pulled Ao Wu's wheelchair and said, "Damn, this is too mysterious, so what does he mean today? He won't be following you, right? I kicked you just now, he Will you curse me too?"
"Don't scare yourself, scare yourself." Ao Wu doesn't believe in any sorcery, nor does he believe in coincidences. He only thinks that maybe he is scheming. From this point of view, Li Ruo should have many accomplices, but as long as he doesn't come to provoke him, Ao Wu Wu couldn't care about the other party's business for the time being, he comforted Hang Shiqi: "We will leave in a few days, and we should not meet him in the future."
As soon as the words fell, the party they had chatted with for a long time appeared outside the inn door with a twisted waist and a graceful figure.
Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu hadn't taken off their disguises at the moment, and Li Ruo recognized them at a glance. They looked at Hang Shiqi and the doorman brother with a bit of arrogance, and looked at Ao Wu with a bit of desire. The style of talking still, the tone reveals the surprise of bumping into the prey: "Oh, what a coincidence, your young master also lives here?"
