Chapter 79: The Fiend that Doesn’t Get Close to Women
Ssmart people could tell that Xu Qing was using the Heavenly Fragrance Hotel to promote the Golden Jade Restaurant.
As for the laughing man, he had a pair of almond-shaped eyes, a high nose, and rosy lips that were just right in terms of thickness. He looked charming. It was really difficult to tell what his gender was. If not for his voice and Adam’s apple, one would think that he was a woman disguised as a man.
The man across from him was dressed in white, while his eyes looked cold and hostile. He followed his gaze to the woman who was doing the publicity. His eyes looked cold, but when he saw the man beside her, his eyes flashed with surprise. Then, he calmed down the next second.
“Jiangming, did you also think it was him?” Hua Yuncheng’s eyes flashed as he drank the duck soup. He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt that the duck soup was bad. It was really strange. Was he influenced by that woman?
Deng Jiangming’s expression was cold. He didn’t speak and only frowned. Now that the country was in trouble and there was no general holding down the fort, the surrounding small countries were eyeing them covetously. The princes of the ancient country also had different thoughts. If this continued, the commoners would suffer.
“How can that fiend be a fool?” Hua Yuncheng mocked. That person was a terrifying existence. How could he hide behind a woman? Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldn’t believe it. It was just that that person’s appearance really did resemble that fiend’s.
“Sigh, I really miss him…” Hua Yuncheng sighed.
Deng Jiangming couldn’t help but roll his eyes at him. What did he miss? The days when he wasn’t hunted down by women? Who in Jingdu didn’t know about Hua Yuncheng’s reputation as a playboy? He relied on his androgynous face to provoke women everywhere. Once he got them, he didn’t cherish them. It caused many women to hate him and want to kill him! In the end, he had no choice but to hide in the general’s house, which no one in Jingdu dared to approach. Only then did he avoid a crisis.
But anyway, he deserved it!
“I heard that he appeared around here before. We’ve been wandering around for months and haven’t seen anything. I feel hopeless!” Hua Yuncheng leaned back in his chair and sighed.
Deng Jiangming’s gaze turned even colder. “Send more people to investigate.” If he was fine, he would have known that they were looking for him. However, there was nothing. It could only mean that something had happened to him! Thinking of this, Deng Jiangming began to feel uneasy. There were still people in Jingdu who wanted to kill him. He hoped that nothing would happen to him.
Xu Qing kept putting food into Qiao Yanhui’s bowl, but she kept feeling that someone was staring at her, making her back turn cold. Coupled with the fact that the food in this restaurant was really average, Xu Qing couldn’t sit still anymore. Seeing that Qiao Yanhui was almost done eating, she pulled him away.
As Qiao Yanhui rose, he instinctively looked toward the second floor. His eyes flashed with a cold look, but in the next second, they resumed their blank look. What he had just done was instinctive.
But Deng Jiangming was shocked by this look. That look was unique to him! Could it be…
“Hua Yuncheng, get up quickly and check on those two people,” Deng Jiangming said sternly.
Hua Yuncheng was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, “Are you serious? You really think that fool is him? How he can become a fool and be that close to a woman?”
“There’s no news anyway. Let’s check.” Deng Jiangming held his teacup, his expression stern and cold.
On the other side, Xu Qing felt much more comfortable after leaving the hotel with Qiao Yanhui. As expected, someone was watching her at the hotel!
“Let’s walk around town.” Xu Qing held Qiao Yanhui’s hand and walked around. The moment Qiao Yanhui was pulled up by Xu Qing, his eyes looked innocent and he smiled contentedly.
Xu Qing thought about letting her younger siblings go to school in the future, so she went to the bookstore to buy books. However, just as she entered, a man dressed in a crisp manner stopped them. He said in a sarcastic tone, “This is a bookstore. It’s not a place where fools can enter.”
Before Xu Qing could finish speaking, Qiao Yanhui was already furious. Before he could enjoy the sensation of his wife holding his hand, he was interrupted. With an unhappy expression, he raised his hand and grabbed the other party’s collar before throwing him out!
Xu Qing felt that she should have stopped him, but when she saw Qiao Yanhui’s silly look, she couldn’t help but want to laugh.
When Qiao Yanhui saw Xu Qing smile and wipe her hands, he felt that he had done the right thing.
After the man was thrown back, his face was red as he covered his butt. “You… are shameless! Reckless!”
