Chapter 121 – You Better Leave! (1/2)
Chapter 121: You better leave!
Li s.h.i.+nian's fiery temper showed itself.
This is the grounds of my house, it's the entrance to my house, not only was I intercepted on my way home, I was rudely asked who I'm looking for—-
Li s.h.i.+nian clenched her fist, but realised her body was too weak now; she lacked the strength to gather a breaking fist. Then, the phrase crossed her mind: 'good women don't fight with men, one should bide one's time and wait for the right opportunity to seek vengeance', the scowl on her face disappeared, transforming into a sweet smile, and her little face reddened in embarra.s.sment: “This is my house—-I want to go home.”
“Miss s.h.i.+nian, right?” A middle-aged man in a black robe walked out from the front of the carriage, clasping a giant sword and smiling at Li s.h.i.+nian as he asked.
“I'm s.h.i.+nian, excuse me who are you?” Li s.h.i.+nian looked curiously at the black-robed man. So many things have happened today and she encountered too many strange people. Whether these people are her friend or foe, she could not distinguish at all—-but they seemed to be her 'friends'. After all, the people today who jumped out to protect her also called her 'Miss s.h.i.+nian', only those ugly monsters who wanted to kill her called her 'hiss hiss'.
“Please come inside Miss, your family is waiting inside.” The black-robed man did not introduce himself, grinned and made an inviting gesture.
Upon seeing this, the youngsters clad in black, hurriedly stepped forward to help open the vermilion door.
The instant the door was pushed open, Li s.h.i.+nian smelled a fishy stench.
This smell was familiar to her, it was the same smell as when an a.s.sa.s.sin attacked their house.
It's the smell of blood.
As expected, several bodies were piled in the corner, while two young men dressed in black with sword strapped to their waist were cleaning up the mess.
It seemed their house was attacked again, but these 'friends' suddenly came to the rescue.
Could they also be reinforcements big brother called?
Seeing their exposed wounds, Li s.h.i.+nian felt nauseous, hastily skipping past the yard.
“Mother—–Mother—-” Li s.h.i.+nian shouted anxiously. She knew something happened here, and it's possibly the same as what she encountered outside.
Who did they offend this time? Is it related to big brother?
Otherwise, how could he knew what's going to happen beforehand despite being thousands of miles away, and also he coincidently found so many skilled masters to protect them?
“s.h.i.+nian—–” Luo Qi came out of the house.“Did you not say you're going to the lake with your cla.s.smates? How come you're back so early?”
Li Yan also followed after, looking at Li s.h.i.+nian strangely without saying a word.
“Mum, I encountered some ugly monsters, they tried to kill me—-” Li s.h.i.+nian exclaimed hurriedly. “What happened at home? Did someone—-”
Luo Qi did not reply, but pulled Li s.h.i.+nian into the house by her hand and said: “We have a guest.”
Li s.h.i.+nian's already noticed the guest, it was a women dressed in beautiful black clothes with a black robe draped over.
Because she did not wear a hat, Li s.h.i.+nian saw her head was full of hair.
She is a beautiful woman, the most beautiful woman Li s.h.i.+nian had ever seen.
Her mother Luo Qi is beautiful too but a different kind of beauty.
Her mother's beauty is gentle and mild. She's a pretty daughter from a humble family and is commonly seen.
But this woman's beauty is n.o.ble, graceful and difficult to ignore.
Li s.h.i.+nian once thought about how her friend Cui Xiaoxin would look like ten years later. She imagined her to look like this woman right now——–
“You're s.h.i.+nian?” The woman's lips curved into a gentle smile as she came over and held Li s.h.i.+nian's hand, then glanced at Luo Qi and said brightly: “it's obvious she's a clever girl.”
Luo Qi opened her mouth to speak but did not know what to say in the end.
She didn't even know what Li s.h.i.+nian should call her.
