Chapter 14: Chance Encounters

Xinyue Inn

A young woman was sitting in a window seat on the first floor, raising her hand to hold a cup of tea, slowly sipping it, looking at the pedestrians outside the window, but her eyes were erratic.

The woman has bright eyes and bright teeth, white complexion, outstanding appearance, especially a red dress, which is very eye-catching, and most of the merchants and people in the rivers and lakes come and go in the inn, especially men, seeing such a dazzling scenery, they are all ready to move, but no one dares to come forward to talk.

Just because half an hour ago, this woman just entered the inn, it caused everyone's eyes to shine, a young and handsome boy wanted to come forward to talk, just sat opposite the woman, who knew that the woman did not look at him, directly put a sword on the table in front of him, without saying a word, but the temperament was as cold as frost, so frightened that the man did not dare to say a word, immediately got up and left.

Most of the people here are people in the rivers and lakes, and they will not be afraid of a little woman, but who is not a bright-eyed person who walks the rivers and lakes outside?

The other party's appearance, momentum, and carrying a sword, although the scabbard is simple and introverted, but there is also a person who knows the goods at a glance and can see that it is not ordinary, who knows if it is a girl from a family of rivers and lakes who came out to break into the rivers and lakes? In case you are impulsive, it is not good to provoke a certain family that is not easy to mess with, provoking people is secondary, the key is face, no one can afford to lose it, so no one pays attention to it anymore, just glances at it from time to time and feasts their eyes.

This woman is also strange, she has been sitting here for half an hour, she doesn't talk or order, she only drinks tea, after all, she is a beautiful woman, and the shopkeeper of the inn is not easy to drive people away.

At this moment, a young man walked in, dressed in a bamboo-blue robe, with a face like a crown of jade, a folding fan in his hand, a graceful demeanor, a good-looking peach blossom eye at a glance, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he raised his feet and walked in a certain direction.

The people who saw it couldn't help but hold their breath, for fear that the next moment would start fighting, and some had the intention of watching a good show, staring at the movement over there from time to time.

And someone who was sitting there quietly drinking tea caught a glimpse of a person sitting opposite him out of the corner of his eye, casually raised his eyes and glanced at it, and suddenly his body stiffened, and he secretly scolded in his heart that "the road is narrow", and he wanted to run away immediately.

As soon as this thought came to mind, she forcibly pressed it down, forcing herself to behave calmly, as if the other party was just a stranger, and turned her head again to look out the window.

"Miss Mo, don't come unharmed." The other party didn't seem to intend to treat her as a stranger and greeted her warmly.

Only then did everyone understand that they were acquaintances, and those who watched the show suddenly lost their minds to watch the show, and they ate and talked one by one.

The woman in red is Mo Yao, who rushed to Wencheng, Jiangzhou immediately after receiving the task, and came to this inn and others, thinking that she would not meet the person in front of her again after the last time, but she didn't expect to meet again, and I have to say that it can't be more coincidental.

The person in front of him was Liu Qingyang, whom Mo Miao met outside the Fragrant Pavilion last time, but it was not particularly unexpected, after all, the last time the two of them met was also in Jiangzhou, although it was not in Wencheng, but it was not far away, and it was not uncommon to meet.

Mo Miao only treated the other party as a stranger, did not speak, and his attitude was very cold.

Liu Qingyang raised her eyebrows in surprise, and asked with a smile, "Girl, don't you remember where you are?" In Xia Liu Qingyang, last time in the ...... "I wanted to say what I met outside the Fragrance Pavilion last time, and I thought about the many people around, it was not easy to say the name of that place, so as not to affect the reputation of the other party, so the voice changed: "I haven't seen you for many days, we can meet here again, we are really fateful, Miss Mo came out alone?" Why don't you bring someone with you? In case of danger......"

Mo Miao told herself in her heart that the person in front of her was definitely not the person she thought he was, maybe he had the same name and surname, and that person would not be as frivolous as him, and she was even more impatient in her heart.

"I don't know you!" Mo Jiao interrupted him in a cold voice.

Liu Qingyang's face instantly became embarrassed, and he soon chuckled again: "Miss Mo is a noble person, so let's get to know each other again." ”

What a bummer!

This is the idea of everyone present, and more people thought that this man was also thinking of flirting with other girls, and they shook their heads, and said in their hearts, looking at his dignified appearance and extraordinary temperament, but he didn't expect that he was such a person, and he was really unseemly.

Mo Jiao was very speechless, this person was really thick-skinned, but he didn't pay attention to him anymore, and only regarded him as transparent.

Seeing that she was so cold, Liu Qingyang also felt bored, so he didn't speak again, and beckoned Xiao Er to order a few signature dishes.

As time gradually passed, Liu Qingyang looked at the woman in front of her from time to time who looked even colder than last time, always smiling, and when the food came, she spoke again: "Where is Miss Mo going?" Meals available? If you're not in a hurry to leave, why not? ”

"Not hungry." Mo Yao only replied to him with two words.

Liu laughed lightly, said no more, and ate alone.

After another quarter of an hour, a middle-aged man in his forties suddenly came in from outside, wearing a white robe, looking elegant and elegant, but with a bent waist, a sad face, and a little less demeanor.

When the shopkeeper saw him, he immediately greeted him warmly: "Yo, Jiang Gongzi, are you back?" How's it going? ”

The man who was called Jiang Gongzi sighed, shook his head, and smiled bitterly: "There is no need to say it. ”

Seeing him like this, the shopkeeper immediately understood, and he was angry and persuaded him: "Gongzi Jiang doesn't have to be discouraged, everything will be fine." ”

"I hope so." Jiang Gongzi shook his head, not holding out hope, still with a sad face, and slowly went upstairs.

Mo Jiao's eyes stared at the man and went upstairs until the person disappeared, and suddenly got up and walked in front of the shopkeeper, and put down a piece of broken silver: "Shopkeeper, ask one thing." ”

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up immediately, and he accepted the money, and his eyes narrowed into a line: "Girl, please ask, I must know everything." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Mo Yao's lips, and he blinked, looking a little playful, and asked curiously, "What's the matter with that person?" Why do you look sad? ”

The shopkeeper didn't think there was anything bad to say, so he sighed and said: "Alas, it's also a pity, a few days ago, this Jiang Gongzi came to my inn, with a lady by his side, who seemed to be seriously ill, and invited a few doctors to no avail, this Jiang Gongzi is also a seed of infatuation, and he refused to give up treating his wife no matter what, so he stayed here day by day, and was determined to cure Mrs. Jiang's illness.
