The waiter served Lu Sheng a few plates of side dishes and a bottle of wine quickly.
Lu Sheng poured the wine into her bowl and drained it in one gulp. Then, she ate the dishes on her plate casually.
Her series of actions made her resemble the person in Chu Sihan’s heart more and more.
Despite that, he did not dare to go forward casually.
Firstly, he was afraid he would make a mistake. Secondly, he was afraid that the other party was his enemy.
“Lady, you have a good tolerance for alcohol!”
A burly man sitting at the side became interested when he saw how Lu Sheng drank. He could not help but clap his hands and praise her.
Lu Sheng glanced at him, smiled faintly, and did not speak.
The man was not angered. Instead, he frivolously asked, “With your skills, how’s your appearance?”
Lu Sheng laughed coldly and said in a deep voice, “What has that got to do with you?”
The man scoffed and stood up. Holding a long sword, he said, “I’ll see your face today.”
“Come at me if you’re capable.”
Her words were filled with provocation and disdain.
The man was really angry now. He strode forward and reached out to remove her draper hat.
However, before his hand touched the draper hat, he was knocked away by a force.
The burly man stumbled and stared at Lu Sheng in disbelief.
However, she sneered and said, “How dare you provoke me with that pathetic ability of yours?”
The burly man was furious. He unsheathed his sword and flew over.
However, the tip of the sword was already caught between Lu Sheng’s fingers.
The man wanted to pull it out, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not do so.
Unable to advance or retreat, the burly man was shocked.
With a twist of her slender hand, the tip of his sword broke.
This time, not to mention the burly man, even Chu Yun and the rest were shocked.
If it were them, his lord would have to take action in order to take on such an expert.
“I didn’t expect this heroine to have such attainments in martial arts at such a young age. It’s my mistake for offending you earlier. I hope that you will forgive me!”
Knowing that he was no match for her, the man did not dare to continue fooling around. Instead, he compromised and apologized to her.
Lu Sheng waved her hands, hinting for them to drop the topic.
“Lord, this woman is not simple!” Chu Yun moved closer to Chu Sihan and softly said.
“Yes.”
Chu Sihan softly replied, but his gaze was sizing up the white figure.
It would have been better if he did not size her up. The more he looked, the more he felt that she resembled her.
He felt like he was possessed.
He composed himself and withdrew his gaze. Then, he picked up the wine on the table and downed it in one shot.
He forced himself to look away from the girl.
Lu Sheng, who was full, did not stay in the inn. She paid the bill and left.
Once she left, everyone in the inn heaved a sigh of relief.
“That girl looks like she’s only in her teens. I didn’t expect her to have such high martial arts skills.”
“What? She sounds like she’s in her thirties.”
“Impossible!” Someone retorted. “Have you seen a woman in her thirties with such tender skin?”
When Lu Sheng raised her hand earlier, her wrist was exposed and this sharp-eyed guest saw it.
In the corner, a handsome youth suddenly stood up and walked out of the inn.
His follower hurried to pay the bill when he saw that.
“Young Master, wait for me!”
Chu Sihan looked at the young man’s back and frowned. “Why does he look so familiar?”
“Lord, that person is the Young Master of the Lin Mansion, Lin Jiang.”
Chu Sihan understood. “So he is Fourth Master Lin’s son. No wonder he looked so familiar.”
