In the market, Jiang Yun took Gu Sheng into a nice-looking store. As soon as they stepped in, they were surrounded by people.
”You are fine?”
”You left the Ye family alive?”
”This…”
The people around them talked a lot, staring at the two people who seemed not to be here, and some even stretched out their hands to test their “realness”.
Gu Sheng slapped them with his claws.
”How can my boss allow you to touch him?”
I haven’t even touched him!
The other party also realized that he was wrong and smiled and said, “Excuse me.”
”But you two really left the Ye family intact?”
”What else?”
Gu Sheng smiled and looked at him, “Could it be that someone left there with missing limbs?”
The other party seemed to be about to nod, and the next second he saw the purse in Jiang Yun’s hand.
It had the Ye family logo on it.
”You actually took on the mission of the Ye family!”
The other party stared with eyes wide open in disbelief, stepped back several steps, looked left and right, and then threw a sentence “Wish you two good luck” and ran away.
”It’s inexplicable.”
The reputation of the Ye family has always been very bad, but in Gu Sheng’s impression, it is not so bad. He watched the people around him disperse together, ignored it, and looked up at Jiang Yun.
”Boss, which one do you like?”
There are many styles of clothes in the store. After hearing the other party’s question, Jiang Yun looked around, his eyes paused for a second in the corner of the store, and shook his head, “I don’t have any clothes I like for now.”
”Today I’m here to help you choose some.”
Gu Sheng said “Oh”, and pulled Jiang Yun towards the place where the other party’s eyes stopped.
He could see Jiang Yun’s expression just now! He paused there for a moment, and he must have liked something.
But after walking to the corner, Gu Sheng found that there was no clothing placed there.
He turned around in confusion, and heard a small voice coming from the side.
”Two brothers…”
Hmm? Who is talking?
Gu Sheng turned his head and looked around.
The other party continued to speak.
”The head of the Ye family has been domineering in Fengcheng for several years. In these days, no one who entered his Ye Mansion has ever come out safely. You two are the first to do so.”
The other party’s voice became a little louder. Gu Sheng looked up and saw a person standing not far away, not approaching them.
He instantly became alert and stretched out his hand to protect Jiang Yun behind him, but the other party patted his shoulder soothingly.
”It’s okay, let’s listen to what the other party has to say first.”
Jiang Yun raised his eyes and looked over with Gu Sheng.
The other party’s voice began to become smaller again:
”The head of the Ye family is a petty person. If you really offend him accidentally, you must be careful in the future.”
The man stood in the dark corner and could not see his face clearly. He could only vaguely see a trace of outline.
It seems to be a bit like someone in his book… but the other party should not be here.
Gu Sheng thought about it, and his mind moved. He didn’t choose his clothes and made a gesture of invitation to the other party.
”Let’s go out and talk about the matter of the head of the Ye family?”
The other party hesitated for a moment, and nodded in the dark: “Okay, but remember to avoid the crowd.”
He walked out of the corner slowly, and his appearance was exposed in front of the two.
The other party was very handsome, with a fair face, and looked only about 21 or 22 years old. He was holding a folding fan in his hand. Seeing that Gu Sheng and Jiang Yun were staring at him closely, he subconsciously opened the folding fan to cover the lower half of his face, revealing only a pair of eyes.
Gu Sheng was attracted by the other party’s actions and looked at the folding fan. He found that the content on it was a line of poetry, and it was matched with the elegant outfit of the man.
A true elegant scholar.
Seeing that he was being stared at more closely, the other party could not help but fall silent: …
He originally wanted the two to stop staring at him, but the words turned around and changed to another sentence: “Excuse me, let’s … go out first.”
”No.” Gu Sheng smiled, and his tone was slightly softer than before, “Please go first.”
——
Originally thought that the other party’s “avoiding the crowd” meant not to make a fuss, but after leaving the store, Gu Sheng found that the man avoided people when walking, and if he accidentally bumped into someone, he would say sorry softly, and then hurriedly walk around.
Gu Sheng blinked, looking at the other party’s expression that did not dare to look at others, and thought to himself:
… Is he a social phobic?
Finally, he followed the man to a sparsely populated alley, and Gu Sheng saw him put away the folding fan covering his face.
”Sorry, I … have never been good at socializing since I was a child, so I made fun of you two.”
”Nothing.”
Jiang Yun lowered his eyes and looked at the other party. He always felt that this person looked familiar, and he didn’t know where he had seen him.
”Thank you for your reminder.” He bowed slightly and thanked the other party.
”No need to thank me!” The man was embarrassed by Jiang Yun’s behavior and bowed as well.
”It’s just that I saw that the two brothers looked familiar, so I said a little more. I hope you don’t mind.”
”No, I don’t mind.”
Gu Sheng smiled and asked, “Excuse me, brother, what’s your name?”
”My last name is Qi, Qi Yan.” Qi Yan raised his hand and bowed, “What are the two of you?”
”Jiang Yun.”
”Gu Sheng.”
Qi Yan nodded and memorized the two names in his heart.
The embarrassing situation in the street just now has probably been seen by the two people in front of him, and he is not ashamed at this time.
Perhaps they hit it off at first sight. Qi Yan took a deep breath and explained all the information he knew.
”Master Ye… bullies men and women and is not a good person!”
”According to rumors, he also keeps a female ghost in his mansion!”
”You may not be from Fengcheng, otherwise you would not have taken on Master Ye’s mission to find a ghost catcher.”
Qi Yan said with wide eyes, lowering his voice: “This matter has been spread privately, and the people of Fengcheng speculate that Master Ye’s purpose of finding a ghost catcher is to set up a trap.”
”In order to prevent others from interfering with him raising that female ghost.”
”Therefore, you should stay away from the Ye family as soon as possible and don’t get involved in this matter.”
Gu Sheng exclaimed to save face, and Qi Yan thought he heard it, but before Gu Sheng could speak, Jiang Yun on the other side said “Sorry” first.
”One of our friends has been involved, and I’m afraid he can’t stay out of it.” If Jiang Yun hadn’t mentioned it, Gu Sheng would have almost forgotten that Lu Li was still “suffering” in the illusion.
Yes, even if we put Lu Li aside, they had to get involved for the map fragment in the Ye Mansion.
Qi Yan didn’t expect this, and was stunned for a moment, then he saluted and said, “In that case, I can only help you here.”
”You two must be careful of the head of the Ye family.”
”Thank you.” Jiang Yun nodded again and looked at the corner of the other’s clothes.
”Brother Qi’s clothes seem to be damaged.” There was a broken and uneven part, like a mark of being burned by fire.
Jiang Yun observed for a moment and took the initiative to invite, “It just so happens that we are planning to buy a set of suitable clothes. Do you want to go together?”
”Thank you, I don’t need it.” Qi Yan lowered his head and arranged his clothes to cover the area.
”You guys.” He looked at the two people in front of him who made him feel familiar for some reason.
”I hope to see you two again in the future.” After saying that, Qi Yan turned and left.
——I will.
Gu Sheng looked at Qi Yan’s back and replied to him in his heart, “We will see each other.”
