Ling Yutong hurried out and ran to the front hall. Songyue, who was confused, thought something had happened and started running after her.
Shopkeeper Liu was shocked, put down his calculations, and looked around.
Ting Yue raised his head with the medicine pestle in hand, with a confused look on his face: "Master, is there anything urgent that you need to arrange?"
Ling Yutong, who later realized that his behavior attracted the attention of the entire pavilion: "..."
She froze for a moment, then stood still and coughed: "Oh, no, I'm just stretching my muscles."
Since it was too suffocating to have three pairs of eyes staring straight at her, she said seriously: "You continue to do what you are doing. I will go out for a while and I will come back."
After saying that, she turned around and left without a trace of hesitation, and in the blink of an eye she was gone.
Songyue stood there and frowned slowly, she felt something was wrong with the girl.
The pavilion continues to be busy. Xingyue Pavilion is still doing the rice and noodle business, but every day Tingyue tinkers with some medicines to prevent wind and cold or internal fire, a small package, and stuffs a few into the packages of rice and noodles purchased by customers.
.
Many customers went back to drink it and praised it for its usefulness. After the reputation spread, many customers picked up rice noodles and went to Shopkeeper Liu to check out, and they would deliberately say: "Give me a few more bags of medicine!"
Shopkeeper Liu was never stingy and gave it to him with a smile.
He has the fluent voice of a storyteller, and he speaks out good auspicious words for free. While bringing a good experience to the guests of Xingyue Pavilion, shopkeeper Liu has also practiced his skills. He counts money all day long and is very happy.
There was only Mrs. Zhao. She opened the curtain and entered the back room. When she saw Qi Zekai and his son arranging medicinal materials where no one was paying attention, chatting about their literary skills that only scholars can understand, she couldn't help curling her lips.
She knew that Qi Zekai was good at studying. He was a native of the capital and had rich experience in taking exams. If her son could chat with him for a few words, she might gain a lot of experience, but that was not her original intention!
After searching around, there was no sign of Ling Yutong. She squeezed her handkerchief tightly and thought unhappily, this Ling girl can also fool people!
At this time, Ling Yutong, who was remembered by her, came to the place where she just left.
In the dark alley, the waiter suddenly shivered. When he turned his head, he saw a familiar outfit.
"Miss Ling?"
Why did you come back in less than a day?
He was surprised in his eyes, no way, Miss Ling found what you wanted so quickly?
Ling Yutong knew it was a misunderstanding as soon as she saw his expression. She smiled slightly, but did not stop the waiter from looking for the man.
Slow footsteps carrying infinite power came, and you knew it was that man without much identification.
Ling Yutong turned towards the direction he came from and said loudly: "You don't have to wait for tomorrow, I will reply to you today."
"I won't show you that fan. The deal between you and me is void. The day I kill Yu Nanxun is the day I will become enemies with Andu. Goodbye."
After saying this simply and neatly, she nodded slightly as a courtesy and left.
The man's leisurely tone came from behind, not surprised or angry.
"Girl, wait a minute."
"If I heard correctly, you just said you couldn't, but you couldn't find it. Can I understand that..."
"You have seen the entirety of this fan, but for some reason you don't want to show it to me, right?"
Ling Yutong paused in his steps and his eyelashes immediately lowered.
She turned to look at the man and said in the same leisurely tone: "You don't need to test me, I have already made a decision. It seems that the young master does not seem like someone who can relax his conditions. We can't reach an agreement."
The man chuckled and raised his eyebrows: "Who says I won't relax the conditions."
"The girl's reaction has indirectly allowed me to achieve my most cherished goal in the past. Therefore, there is no need for the girl and I to be enemies."
The interest in his tone did not dissipate at all, and the meaning behind his words...
Ling Yutong frowned and turned around completely.
"What's the meaning?"
"That is to say, the girl does not need to show me the fan, and I will remove the posthumous reward for Yu Nanxun's life now."
As he said that, the man tilted his head and raised his hand: "Xiao Er, go and do the operation."
The waiter was stunned for a moment, and immediately concealed the shock in his eyes. He valued Ling Yutong a little more highly in his heart. The Lord actually complied with Miss Ling's request, saying that he had achieved his goal, but... this was nothing more than...
Free gift!
Moreover, his real name is Xiao Er, and he often calls himself the waiter because he is in the dark city. The dark city has strict mysterious rules and no one under the command is allowed to reveal their names.
He will not think that the adult made the wrong call because of his negligence.
He returned soon, holding the token in his hand that Yu Nanxun had pledged here.
Ling Yutong was stunned and understood that this was proof that the Andu commission had been cancelled.
"This token should have been sent to the employer as soon as possible to remind me that the commission was over, but the girl caught my eye, so I will return it three days later."
The man raised his hand and saluted: "I wish the girl good luck."
Ling Yutong couldn't understand.
She frowned and stared at the man for a long time, but he was trapped in darkness and wore an extremely wide hood on his head, with only a pale lower jaw exposed.
"What is the goal, please state it clearly."
She is not fooled by the surface and wants to get to the bottom of things.
Anyone who has been prepared to become an enemy, but is suddenly told that the other party has obtained information from her that she does not know, and unilaterally declares that they will not become an enemy, will be filled with doubts and start to doubt, right?
The man curled his lips, neither surprised nor covered up.
"I want to find someone who has something to do with that fan. This is the goal."
"I conclude that the girl has seen the fan with the green ribs, and I happen to know the allusion to that fan. Do you think I have accomplished my goal?"
allusion.
Ling Yutong squinted her eyes. This was the second time she heard this word. Qi Yan didn't tell her what the allusion was, and the attitude of the person in front of her... I'm afraid, this allusion is very pointed.
Her fists clenched instantly, OK, she was tricked by this man!
At this point, there is no need for her to deny that she has never seen the fan. It is really annoying for someone who knows more things than she does and still wants to beat her around the bush with information from the prophet!
She wants to know what this allusion is.
Qi Yan didn't tell her, so let's take it from this person's mouth!
"Oh, what does this have to do with me?"
Ling Yutong casually fiddled with the curtain hat on his head, his eyes as cold as a sharp knife.
"What I want to know is why you suddenly changed your mind. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. From now on, I won't come to Andu to do business again."
"Unfortunately, I still have a few pieces of information in my hand, and I would like to exchange them for a better price with you."
She made a soft "tsk" sound, straightened the veil that had fallen from the curtain, and looked at him leisurely.
The man stared at her for a second and suddenly smiled.
"No, everyone needs high-quality customers like the girl. Whatever the girl wants to know, I will tell you."
"That fan was made by a famous craftsman. This craftsman was proficient in divination. When he made this fan, he put a layer of disguise on it. He said that after this fan is given away, only the person destined for it will be the fan."
Only then can we get a glimpse of its original appearance.”
