145 Enemies on a narrow road (1/2)
With great difficulty Yang Qiu managed to separate the two mad bulls. Xia Lian was unscathed but Lu Wen was like a scratched cat completely filled with wounds and bruises. The teeth marks on his hand were the most prominent as they were clearly visible to naked eye.
” Master, should we all head together?” Yang Qiu spoke cleverly to divert their attention to the important matters at hand. Just as he expected, Xia Lian's demeanor changed as she spoke with a voice which did not allow any further discussions.
” Lu Wen and I will be heading first.” she then spoke to Yang Qiu ” You will bring Fan Ling and my brother from the back entrance later. We will go in two separate routes and we will be starting now.”
” Let's go Lu Wen.” The original hostile atmosphere disappeared completely as Lu Wen started to follow Xia Lian obediently. Yang Qiu was not able to make head or tails out of this. Just a few moments before they were like mad dogs, it was truly difficult for his heart to accept such earth shattering changes in a short amount of time.
” Master, are you sure that you both would not start fighting in the middle of the streets?” Yang Qiu was highly suspicious of these two.
” No need to worry. And don't think too much about the fight. Such small banters are common between brothers.” Lu Wen winked at Yang Qiu making Xia Lian display an extremely funny expression her face.
Are they flirting before her? Tsk, with a pair of lovebirds by her side she would have no shortage of dog food in future. She was sure that her days will be definitely more and more enthralling in future.
” Make sure to bring the young master safely. We will be going now.”
Brothers? When did these both develop brotherhood? Yang Qiu's mind was in a mess but before he could ask, Xia Lian and Lu Wen disappeared from the room.
” Sister, I didn't think that you are such a creep!” Lu Wen still felt shivers along his spine when he remembered her eerie laughter.
” If you thought that I am an obedient cute little girl, then you are mistaken.” Xia Lian glanced at him side-eyed ” I am more like an unruly boy, nowhere near to your typical impression of a girl. ”Regretting that you are my brother now?”
” Tsk…” Lu Wen crossed his hands across his chest and shot a provoking look at her ” Regret? Not a bit of it. I will surely control this unruly sister of mine.”
” Heh!” Xia Lian was speechless and she immediately flared up ” Such confidence! Let's see who will win the upperhand!”
” I accept!”
Xia Lian humphed and did not speak anything further; they would definitely end up fighting if she did not stop now. So, she very reluctantly stopped bickering with him.
Soon they reached the Black Dragon Auction House. Since it is the big day, the room was completely filled with huge crowds of people. Du Weng recognised her immediately and led them to the pre-prepared VIP room. Du Weng glanced at the stern and handsome man beside Xia Lian.
' Why is this Doctor Wu always surrounded by beautiful men? Why is that he could not see a single woman ah, may be this young lad is committed to a single woman.This Doctor Wu must be a man of high principles' Du Weng was knitting his own thoughts into a never seen web of respect and admiration.
