Vol 5 Chapter 37 (2/2)
I didn’t bother saying too much, and turned toward the residence and opened the door by a crack. When I saw what happened inside, I frowned and slowly shut the door before turning to Lu Bu
“Lord Lu Bu, what have you done!” I asked Lu Bu anxiously, and kept my voice as low as possible. “What good is Han Fu and Meng Tan’s deaths to us?”
“What’s the point of keeping the 2 of them? They’re just evil, treacherous men who could not possibly aid us in any way. Do you think they will let us pa.s.s?”
“Aiya! But that doesn’t mean we need to kill…”
“If I don’t kill them, then how could I save the 2 la.s.ses so quickly? How could I have driven off the incoming troops?” Lu Bu was irritated when she looked at my dismayed expression.
“Then…”
“Even if it’s me, a rescue operation is difficult especially since that’s not my specialty to begin with. If they had called for more troops all of a sudden or if I had neglected the la.s.ses due to exhaustion and either of us got injured, who would be responsible?” Lu Bu raised her volume with each sentence. Her tone was still calm and what she said did indeed make sense.
“Sister Guan.” Just then, Gan Qing came over, and looked at me with a difficult expression, “Please don’t blame sister Lu for this.”
“That’s right that’s right, sister Lu was so cool just now!”
“Ha~~~ So tired…”
Looking at the 2 girls, I didn’t have the heart to say anymore, and calmed myself down.
“… I’m not really blaming her.” I wanted to say something just now, but I’ve forgotten what it was already.
“Hai, I understand. This could have been avoided and I did indeed say too much.”
“No…”
Lu Bu seems to have realised that she was speaking loudly. But what Lu Bu said was right. If it were me, I would probably have chosen to kill those dishonourable people if I had to.
“Eh? Why is everyone outside?” Just then, Meng Huo and his band returned. They all had small and big bags of stuff in their hands and were puzzled when they saw us standing and sitting outside.
“Un, stuff happened.” I shook my head tiredly.
“Something happened huh…” Meng Huo smiled as he looked at me. It was difficult to look at that smile but he didn’t ask any further. He only said, “Is that so? Tell me later.” He then walked over to the side and spoke with the rest of his band.
It’s not like I can’t tell them what happened. It’s just a bit ironic how I told them not to act yet things happened like this anyway.
Un, what a joke.
“Yun Chang, my lord~~” Just then, Wen Yuan came rus.h.i.+ng over and waved with an excited look.
Just as I was about to ask Wen Yuan what happened, she spoke up, “Luoyang city is ours!”
