Chapter 217: Intention to Recrui (1/2)
Pei Rumo had always been a serious person and there was hardly ever a smile on his face. His subordinates would usually acknowledge his order with a stiff expression unlike Pei Qingfeng’s guards who would joke around with their master.
When the personal attendant saw the secret guard commander leaving, he immediately entered and informed Pei Rumo, “Master, this servant took the opportunity to clear up your room. I lit up some new incense and sunned the bedding.”
Pei Rumo didn’t move and thoughts flew through his mind.
Why is Ying Lan and Luo Chu so close? Can it be because of her medical skills? Maybe it is her status as the Third Prince’s fiancée?
Soon enough, Pei Rumo denied his second guess. After all, why would these people of the martial world bother about the status and false reputation given out by the imperial clan? None of that made sense.
In that case, he must be doing it for Luo Chu’s medical skills. It seems like she has already joined the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence. She probably joined after returning to the general’s residence. Otherwise, why would the commander of the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence be so respectful to her? He even visited her so frequently… Even if the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence’s commander cherishes talents and respects the wise, the treatment that he provided was fit for a founding member.
As soon as this thought appeared in his head, he recalled plenty of details related to the matter. Now that he thought about it, the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence’s commander seemed to be paying attention to Luo Chu since a long time ago. During the trip to the Falling Cloud Mountain Range, he stopped moving when someone yelled her name. When he saw her retreating with the severely injured Pei Qingfeng, he withdrew from the battle and disregarded the Green Flame Eagle. It seemed weird back then but he recalled the presence of the silver-haired man beside her in the Falling Cloud Mountain Range and beside Ying Lan during the disciple exhibition. In this world, it was extremely rare to find two identical-looking individuals, let alone two handsome men with silver hair. From the looks of it, Luo Chu had probably joined the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence with the identity of Divine Physician Bai a long time ago. Now that her identity was already exposed, there was no need to hide her relationship to the faction any longer.
Tsk Tsk, Luo Chu is truly adept at hiding. She is an incredible person exceeding my expectations.
“Master? Master? This servant is talking to you. Why aren’t you responding to this servant after such a long time?” That personal attendant noticed that Pei Rumo was unresponsive and after waiting for some time, he brought his master back to reality.
That attendant acknowledged his orders and started to grind the ink. Pei Rumo raised his brush and thought of a reason to convince Ying Lan to accept the invitation. After thinking for a long time and running through countless simulations in his head, he started writing.
After writing the invitation card, Pei Rumo spoke to his attendant, “After the ink dries, bring the letter to the Remote Paddy Inn. Get the boss out and hand this invitation over to him. This is an invitation for dinner two days later. Remember, you need to hand this invitation over to the boss behind the scenes.”
