Chapter 148 Are you secretly in love with me?
After the candles in the Mantanghong lobby went out, the surroundings immediately fell into darkness. Meng Haowen vaguely saw a red shadow flying over his head, and there seemed to be a big furry tail under the red skirt.
This, this is... Meng Haowen suddenly remembered something.
Qingqiu, Qingqiu!
He remembered that he had read in a miscellaneous book before that Qingqiu was rumored to be the gathering place of an ancient clan of fox demons. So, could this Tushan girl not be human? Was she really... a man-eating goblin?
Meng Haowen, who had already drunk a lot of wine and was feeling dizzy, felt panicked and subconsciously turned around and wanted to run out.
"Why are you running? I haven't had enough fun yet."
The woman's voice suddenly became cold and stern. The next moment, the one-meter-tall ceramic vases that were originally placed on both sides of the Mantanghong gate suddenly shattered. The fragments were scattered everywhere, and some of them directly cut Meng Haowen's coat.
"Ah! There's a monster!"
Meng Haowen's face changed drastically, and his speed became incredibly fast. He ran out of the hall almost like the wind.
On the platform by the window on the second floor of Mantanghong, Jiang Jiang put away the knife in his sleeve with a smile on his face.
She found that this thing was really magical. It was said to be invisible and traceless, and it really was. Even if it stabbed someone, it would be like a wind blade, leaving only a wound but no weapon. It could kill people invisibly.
Of course, Jiang Jiang would not use it to kill people, because she found that this thing could also be used to scare people.
For example, the candle suddenly went out and the vase suddenly shattered, which were all the work of the dagger in the sleeve. As for the red skirt that flew past in the darkness just now, that was a prop specially made by Jiang Jiang, and she was still holding the fishing line in her hand.
"Meng Haowen is really timid. I haven't had enough fun with him yet."
Jiang Jiang smiled and tightened the fishing line in her hand. She had to put away the props quickly. It took Jiang Jiang a lot of effort to set up the props. Fortunately, she had made some progress in martial arts training recently, so she could easily climb to the second-floor platform of the Mantanghong Hall. Jiang Jiang turned around while thinking, but her foot slipped and her body lost balance instantly.
"Fuck."
Could this be the legendary tragedy of excessive joy? Jiang Jiang subconsciously loosened the fishing line in her hand and tried to grab the railing beside the platform, but the railing was too old. Jiang Jiang pulled hard and actually broke it!
Jiang Jiang: ???
Boss Xu, you really don't care about your personal property at all. This railing is so broken. Don't you know to fix it?
Fortunately, she only fell from the second floor, well, only three meters high.
Almost instantly, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Jiang's mind. She subconsciously hugged her head tightly, trying to cushion the impact when landing. However...
Before Jiang Jiang's body hit the ground, a figure flew past from the darkness and grabbed Jiang Jiang's arm accurately, slowing down Jiang Jiang's falling speed.
This breath is...
Jiang Jiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and as she landed safely, she suddenly turned her hand and grabbed the other person's arm.
"Don't run, I finally caught you."
In the night, Jiang Jiang looked up with a smile, a cunning light flashing in her big eyes.
"You deliberately?"
The other party didn't seem to expect to be caught by Jiang Jiang. Facing Jiang Jiang's cunning gaze, Lin Jing was speechless.
Before leaving, the Prime Minister instructed that Miss Jiang Jiang must be well protected and not allowed to suffer any harm.
Seeing Jiang Jiang about to fall from the building, Lin Jing didn't care about anything else. He naturally flew up and brought her down directly.
As a result, he was caught now.
Exposed.
"Tell me, why have you been following me secretly?"
Jiang Jiang grabbed Lin Jing's arm tightly, as if she was afraid that this guy would run away if she was distracted.
"I……"
Lin Jing opened his mouth, but couldn't think of any good reason for a moment.
"Are you secretly in love with me?" Jiang Jiang narrowed her eyes and looked at the young man in front of her with suspicion. She was sure that she had never seen him before, and there was no such person in the original owner's memory.
"I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
Hearing Jiang Jiang's words, Lin Jing became extremely excited. He broke free from Jiang Jiang's grip and said with a serious face, "I just can't stand Meng Haowen being so arrogant and domineering. I had been following him, intending to teach him a lesson when he was drunk, but I didn't expect... to see you here... Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about your affairs. After all, we all can't stand that dandy boy."
"That's it?"
Jiang Jiang glanced at Lin Jing and said, "I don't believe you at all."
You're still following Meng Haowen? You've been following me for months!
Jiang Jiang was very familiar with Lin Jing's breath.
In fact, she had thought more than once, what was the intention of this person who had been following her silently?
Jiang Jiang couldn't figure it out, but what happened today made her realize that this guy didn't seem to have any ill will towards her, and he seemed to have been protecting her secretly?
What is this? The Dark Knight?
Jiang Jiang thought about it and subconsciously looked at Lin Jing beside him. He was wearing a dark warrior outfit and looked handsome and free and easy.
He is a bit handsome and knows martial arts.
Actually, this person is not bad, but... his appearance is still a little lacking.
As a beauty lover, Jiang Jiang has quite high standards for selecting people.
Lin Jing, who was standing aside, was stared at by Jiang Jiang, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he still remembered the Prime Minister's instructions in his heart -
If you are discovered one day, you must never reveal your true identity and name.
"Miss, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first!" Lin Jing couldn't stand Jiang Jiang's strange look, he just wanted to run away.
"Hey, don't go. When I fell just now, the props upstairs were still hanging there. Can you help me collect them?"
Jiang Jiang grabbed Lin Jing again, blinked her big eyes, and looked at him with a smile.
If you have such a free laborer with great martial arts skills, why not make use of him?
"Okay, okay." Lin Jing nodded, then jumped and went directly to the second floor of Mantanghong.
"Great skills! Awesome!"
Jiang Jiang stood there nodding. At this moment, Li Ping'an, who had been hiding in the shadows outside the Mantanghong Building, quickly came to Jiang Jiang's side and whispered, "Sister Jiang Jiang, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Jiang Jiang patted the dust off her body. When she fell down and grabbed the railing just now, she was splashed with dust.
This Mantanghong really needs to be renovated. It's in tatters everywhere. Xu Lie really made a fortune this time.
Even if it's only two hundred thousand taels, it's still a huge profit.
Li Pingan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jiang Jiang was fine. Then he looked around. Mantanglou was located on the westernmost side of Mingyuefang. As it had been closed for a long time, there were not many people walking around nearby.
but……
They stand here, always a little eye-catching.
