Synopsis: How does it feel to be a good person?

Even though he clearly knew that Shen Qiao was blind, Chen Gong still subconsciously avoidedeye contact with him

Upon seeing this, Mu Tipo chuckled, ”Chen Gong told me there was a beauty here as a hundred times prettier than all ofthat this boy hadn't seen , so I followed hi you, I finally know that he wasn't really exaggerating”

Shen Qiao remained silent, his face was expressionless

Mu Tipo didn'tHis Majesty is very fond of o back with me, you will live a luxurious life ealth and honor from now on, and you won't have to live in such a crude place anymore”

Only then did Shen Qiao finally let out a sigh, ”Chen Gong, you are the one who told him my whereabouts?”

Knowing that there was no turning back, Chen Gong steeled his heart and replied, ”I had no other choice! If I didn't bring them here, then I would have to serve Mu… Commandery Prince Mu myself!”

Shen Qiao shook his head ”Do you really think you can get aith it just by bringing the whether he is willing to let you go or not?”

Mu Tipo laughed, ”You're right Even though this boy is nothing compared to you, at least he's not crippled He's s him a servant would be nice too!”

Chen Gong was shocked ”You just said you would let o!”

Mu Tipo didn't pay any attention to hiht stepped forward and seized Chen Gong

Meanwhile, he walked towards Shen Qiao himself

Perhaps Shen Qiao felt hiot up with the help of the table It seereet Mu Tipo with a salutation

A s went just as he expected

When it came to power and authority, everyone in the world either dreaded or envied it The ones who dreaded it trembled with fear while the ones with envy chased after it like a h the other person appeared to be reluctant right now, he too would soon get used to or even fall in love ealth, power, and fair ladies At that point, if he wanted to get out, it would no longer be up to him to make the decision

Mu Tipo asked, ”What's your name?”

”I'm Shen Qiao”

”Is it the 'Qiao' as in 'Da Qiao' and 'Xiao Qiao'[1]? It suits you well indeed”

”It's the 'Qiao' with a 'Shan (Mountain)' on its left”

Mu Tipo raised his eyebrows and laughed, ”As in 'I ca the ones in rivers and high mountains (Qiao)'? This 'Qiao' feels a little too fierce It's not a name a beauty should have”

But Shen Qiao didn't laugh ”I think this naood”

”Fine, fine, as long as you like it Do you have a courtesy name [2]? Or should I just call you Xiao-qiao? Ah-qiao?” Mu Tipo laughed His tone unconsciously held some humor and compliance

Shen Qiao bent down to pick up the bamboo stick, and part of his neck was revealed underneath the collar It was fine and slihts in others

It made Mu Tipo's heart itch He couldn't hold hi out his hand to help Shen Qiao, thinking that he could use the opportunity to pull that person into his arms so that he could come to him

Shen Qiao's body temperature was low He was e Shen Qiao's wrist, he could even feel the bones underneath the thin layer of skin

Normally, for someone like Mu Tipo who had seen all kinds of beauties, he sure would have disliked how bony Shen Qiao felt in his hand But at this very moment, his er to have him

”Ah-qiao…” He only said tords

And he only had time to say these tords

Before he felt a sting on his chest

He looked down That bamboo stick had soht at where his heart was

Mu Tipo's reaction was not slow Right after he felt the sting, he ie of thethe ba Shen Qiao with the other

He was not a broad-minded person in the first place Even ly harmless beauty who dared to backstab him; therefore, by the time he attacked, there was no mercy left

Mu Tipo also practiced martial arts Despite the fact that his skill was only second or third-rate, if his palm were to really hit Shen Qiao, the latter would be at least severely injured, if not killed

However, much to his surprise, the bamboo stick which undoubtedly should have fallen into his hand swiftly slipped to the side, escaping Mu Tipo's range of control

Not only that, but Mu Tipo's other hand also failed to hit the target

The person he thought to be a sick, fragile beauty actually dodged his attack using soed to strike back and hit his waist with the bamboo stick

He didn't have any inner qi, so the hit could not inflict ht on the weakest spot between his ribs Mu Tipo was taken by surprise and thus failed to use inner qi to defend himself As a result, the pain inflicted by the strike almost made his eyes water He could not restrain hi hastily

Only then did his servants finally realize what had happened Some of them stepped forward to support Mu Tipo, while the others rushed up in a crowd, ready to take down Shen Qiao

Mu Tipo had never expected that he would suffer losses at this place, his face sunk to the point that he was about to explode Gazing at Shen Qiao ferociously, in his mind he already had more than a hundred ways to torture the man ”Catch him alive!”

Soht were quite skilled inin numbers, they didn't take the blind, sickly person seriously; yet unexpectedly, they were all defeated
