Riding the Pheonix Chapter 206: Sincerely

In the afternoon, the music sounded softly. ()

Gui Niang was playing, and suddenly she made a wrong note.

The girls practicing music with her stopped.

The woman next to the desk in the inner room put down the account book in her hand, opened the curtain and came out.

"Gui Niang."

Gui Niang stood up and said, "Sister Liuli."

This woman named Liuli is also very beautiful, but her clothes and accessories are relatively simple.

She said: "Come on." Others said, "You continue."

Gui Niang put down her pipa and followed her into the inner room.

Liu Li looked at her and sighed: "You have been restless these past two days. What's going on?"

Gui Niang smiled: "I'm just a little bored and in a bad mood. Don't worry, sister."

Liu Li looked serious, looking at her without saying a word.

With her staring like this, Gui Niang couldn't help but smile: "Sister Liuli..."

Liu Li lowered her voice: "Because of that Young Master Guo, right? I heard that he often gives you things recently and always looks for opportunities to talk to you."

Gui Niang said hurriedly: "Sister, don't get me wrong, I didn't think too much about it. That young master Guo was assigned by Hall Master Qi to greet him well."

Liu Li looked at her quietly.

Gui Niang begged: "Sister Liuli..."

"Just know it yourself." Liuli said softly, "What kind of people are we? Don't have any expectations in your heart. Just live one day at a time. The more you think about it, the more painful it will be."

Gui Niang felt her heart being pricked, she lowered her head and said, "Yes."

Liu Li patted her hand: "Don't be afraid, I won't tell them. We are the only two sisters who were sent here together. If we don't take care of each other, who else will be there in the future..."

"Sister..." Gui Niang felt sad.

Liu Li whispered: "That young master Guo is leaving home for the first time, so he has such thoughts. When he sees more of the world, he may not take us seriously. Man, these Haven't we seen each other often? Don't be easily provoked by him."

Gui Niang agreed: "I understand. In fact, it's not because of him. It's just that there are fewer and fewer sisters around me, and I feel depressed."

Liu Li said nothing.

There were strings of silk and bamboo outside, and girls younger than them were rehearsing the music. Maybe something went wrong because Gui Niang was away, and they had a few words.

Liu Li listened blankly for a while and then said: "Looking back, it's really funny. Back then, we people wanted to compete with each other for first place and were hostile to each other. In fact, winning was just like us. You became the oiran, and I became the oiran. In addition to the old bustard, Linglong is even more..."

"Sister!" Gui Niang shouted.

Liu Li stopped in time.

The two sat in silence for a while, and Gui Niang managed to cheer up: "Sister, sit down slowly, I'm going to practice music."

Liu Li nodded, and finally warned: "Don't think too much, just do whatever the Lord Qi wants. We should have stopped thinking too much."

"Yes." Guiniang responded in a timid voice.

……

Ji Xiaowu came back happily and shouted: "Sisters, come pick out gifts!"

When the girls who were practicing music heard the voice, they put down their instruments and stepped forward with smiles.

After these few days of getting along, they became familiar with Ji Xiaowu and knew that Mr. Guo was kind and had no temper, so they talked to him one by one.

This one said: "Where has Mr. Guo gone again?"

The other said: "Hey, isn't this the brocade from Jinxin Embroidery Workshop?"

Someone picked up the hairpin and said, "This is so beautiful!"

Ji Xiaowu said generously: "Sisters, take it if you like it!"

The girls were overjoyed: "It's really for us? So much?"

"Yes! So many of them are for you."

The girls were chirping and picking up gifts. When Ji Xiaowu saw Gui Niang, he came up to her and took out a stick from her sleeve: "Sister Gui Niang, this is specially left for you."

Liu Li walked out with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Guo! You secretly left a gift for Guiniang, why didn't you leave it for me?"

Ji Xiaowu groaned and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes!" He took out a jade pendant and handed it over, "This... sister Liuli, don't dislike it."

Although the jade pendant is in good condition, it is not as exquisite as Bu Yao.

Liu Li teased: "It's the same gift, why is it so different? Mr. Guo, you are treating one favorably and favoring the other!"

Ji Xiaowu blushed, but didn't say anything and just smiled.

Liu Li pushed Gui Niang: "Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore, let's talk together."

When everyone else left, Gui Niang said: "Mr. Guo, Gui Niang already said it last time..."

Ji Xiaowu cut off her words: "Sister, don't be burdened, it's just a gift." After a pause, he added, "I've thought about it, sister is right, we are indeed... unlikely. However, I I really think my sister is good, and if she is willing, I am willing to help you redeem yourself."

Gui Niang's heart softened and she said softly: "Thank you, Master. It's just that I don't know where to settle down after I leave here. I'm fine now..."

Disappointment appeared on Ji Xiaowu's face again: "I understand..."

Gui Niang blessed her: "Young master, please go and rest first. Gui Niang will tell them to boil water."

"Oh..."

Ji Xiaowu entered the room with his head lowered, and Duofu was already in the room.

As soon as the door closed, his expression changed and his obsession disappeared. He lowered his voice and asked Duofu: "Is there anything gained?"

Duofu nodded, called out Little White Snake, and repeated the conversation between the two of them.

Ji Xiaowu frowned and thought: "What they are talking about is Linglong, could it be..."

Duofu asked: "Fifth Young Master, what should we do next? It seems like you can't impress them like this!"

Ji Xiaowu lay down on the bed and sighed: "I knew my cousin was cheating on me! What kind of young hero came out to make a name for himself, bah! Then he asked me to hang out among women to get information! It's no fun at all!"

He regretted it, how could he be deceived by Mingwei with just a few words?

"Fifth Young Master, don't be anxious! The young lady said that this matter cannot be rushed..."

"I know." Ji Xiaowu interrupted her and got up, "But this trick really doesn't work. I have to think of other ways."

He walked around the room: "If they are talking about Linglong, it is the Linglong that my cousin wants us to find~IndoMTL.com~In other words, this is a den of thieves. The women here are all well-trained. Yes, what about the untrained ones? If I find them, can I find the person my cousin asked me to find?"

The more Ji Xiaowu thought about it, the more this happened.

After the missing incident in Changlechi, the government conducted a strict search. In this case, the abducted woman must still be in the city. Just find the secret base where they placed these women...

But how to find it?

Ji Xiaowu thought hard.

At the same time, Liuli quietly went out from the back door and entered the house next door.

"Elder, Hall Master." She bowed and saluted.

The people talking in the hall are none other than Elder Ge and Qi Ping.

Seeing her, Qi Ping asked: "How is that boy?"

Liu Li smiled and said: "Master Guo loves Gui Niang very much, and he can't even bear to blaspheme her. From my point of view, it seems that he is sincerely moved."
