Chapter 318.2: Enemy Encounter (2/2)

In reality, it was just a little booth made by partitioning screens that had a semi-transparent gauze curtain in front. It was simple, but not bad aesthetically.

Tang Doudou sat down, then dismissed Xiao Yi so that he would stop getting in the way of her brain waves.

Wind Cherishing House was seriously hateful as well to make them wait this long.

She took a sip of the tea, then crossed her legs as she looked towards the booth next to her. When she saw that there was no movement on that side, she quietly got onto the chair to peek over the partitioning screen. There was no one there. She couldn't help but wonder if Qing gongzi was messing with her. Was this really a private room?

And when she walked upstairs, he wasn't there anymore.

Tang Doudou then giggled. This was perfect timing!

She got down from the chair and left the booth to find the room where guqin music was coming from. After walking a while, she heard Baili Yu's familiar voice.

It was here!

Tang Doudou's face lit up with joy. Then she licked her finger and poked a hole on the paper window to peek in.

Baili Yu was still dressed in white and his silky black hair cascaded over his shoulders as he stroked the guqin with his slender fingers. ”I know, you can head out now.”

He was talking to the courtesan standing in front of him.

The courtesan still wanted to say something, but when he recalled how highly Qing gongzi seemed to think of Baili Yu, he swallowed back his words and just said, ”Understood.”

Baili Yu didn't even lift his eyes to look at the courtesan, so the courtesan could only quietly withdraw.

Once he left, Tang Doudou reached out to knock on the window. Suddenly, her instincts screamed at her and she quickly dodged to the side.

A stern light refracting off a blade struck right in front of her. Had she been a breath slower, she probably would've already been dead!

She didn't try to look for the attacker. She could tell from this ruthless and decisive attack that it had been Liu Zhiyuan.

Tang Doudou was surprised to encounter him so quickly, but it was also within her predictions. The reason why Liu Zhiyuan hadn't appeared last time was probably because he hadn't been certain of her identity.

Liu Zhiyuan still hadn't shown himself. Since he was skilled at keeping himself hidden, Tang Doudou didn't dare to be careless and kept looking around on alert.

If she didn't want to die an early death, she shouldn't try to fight Liu Zhiyuan head-on with force. She wasn't even close to a match for him, so she had to use other means.

However, she was confused as to why Liu Zhiyuan sent Baili Yu here after he lost his memories? Could it be that he was doing this in revenge?

But, based on how twisted he was, wasn't choosing this method of revenge going too easy on Baili Yu?

After Liu Zhiyuan made that attack, he didn't make any other moves.

Tang Doudou knew that he was definitely still around so she didn't dare to move. She was worried that if she moved, Liu Zhiyuan would notice something. She had only managed to dodge his first strike due to luck. If he attacked again, there was no guarantee that she would be as lucky.
