But when she was dragged up, Liu Shu, who had already turned around, suddenly thought of sothing, and a shout stopped her.
"Stop!"
Cui Zhu’s heart tightened, and she took a sharp, cold breath.
"Turn around for ."
Liu Shu seed to realize sothing, and his gaze beca fierce.
Upon hearing this voice, Cui Zhu knew she was dood.
It was her own carelessness—a mistake that could bring significant trouble to the young lady.
But at this mont, she couldn’t think about it. She tensed her hands, and no one knew that on her wrist was tied the hidden weapon the young lady had taught her.
The mont she turned around, she suddenly pressed the switch towards Liu Shu’s throat!
With a "whoosh," a finely crafted dart shot out instantly, piercing directly through Liu Shu’s throat! Before anyone could react, the blood splattered onto the faces of those nearby.
Everyone present was shocked!
"Soone! Assassin! Catch this assassin quickly!"
With a roar from the guards, the tavern was instantly in an uproar.
Liu Shu, upon seeing it was Cui Zhu, was even more shocked, his eyes wide open, holding onto his last breath to identify her: "You... you vile woman, why are you here? M... my lord... Ruan..."
Cui Zhu realized it was bad and without thinking too much, she clutched his neck, squeezing out another spurt of blood, directly cutting off Liu Shu’s life! And stopping Liu Shu from speaking further.
She had personally killed her husband and this wicked man who committed many vile deeds.
Cui Zhu thought she would feel relieved, but seeing Liu Shu die before her, eyes wide open, she couldn’t stop trembling all over, her mind blank, losing her will to resist.
The next mont, a guard had already rushed forward, stabbing with a knife, she instinctively dodged!
Although she avoided the most fatal spot, it still pierced into her flesh, blood pouring non-stop.
Imdiately, Cui Zhu fell to the ground in pain, looking helplessly around, but there was no fear in her eyes, only guilt towards the young lady and a fearless acceptance of death.
If she could die like this, so be it.
This was all her fault.
As long as it didn’t implicate the young lady, as long as the young lady was still safe, it didn’t matter if Cui Zhu died.
So she completely gave up resisting, falling weakly to the ground.
Ruan Mian, upon seeing this scene, rushed over without hesitation, holding her body!
Cui Zhu saw it was her, so scared she stuttered.
"L... Lady, don’t... don’t mind !! Hurry and go..."
"Zhu’er, why are you so foolish!! I have my own ways to deal with them, why did you need to step in?"
This thod of losing a thousand enemies to harm 800 only made Ruan Mian’s heart ache.
But now, it was too late to say anything, Liu Shu was dead, they were exposed, and Cui Zhu was in great danger.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, my lady... It’s my fault, I... I didn’t expect today would..."
After saying just a couple of sentences, Cui Zhu was already coughing uncontrollably.
Ruan Mian saw her wound still bleeding, realizing there was no ti to delay, she imdiately opened a small water pouch she carried, feeding her the spiritual spring water!
For now, to keep her alive.
Then she tore a piece of her own dress, quickly wrapping it around her wound to stop the bleeding.
All of this was seen by Qin Fu.
Unhurriedly, he did not let the guards advance, but observed Ruan Mian silently, waiting until she finished bandaging before slowly getting up and walking to her.
By now, Ruan Mian and her group were surrounded by a whole squad of elite guards standing nearby; not even a fly could escape.
As for the other guests, Qin Fu had already instructed soone to disperse them.
Leaving only his own people in this room.
He clapped his hands with those large gold rings, speaking with so admiration in his eyes, "Miss Ruan does live up to her reputation, quite brave."
"To think you deceived your way beside to gather intelligence and even killed Liu Shu with one strike."
"Won as decisive and bold as you are truly rare."
After speaking, he had soone bring over a chair, gesturing for Ruan Mian to sit: "Standing while talking is tiring, sit, let’s chat."
Ruan Mian instinctively looked at Cui Zhu. She indeed wanted to have a proper "chat" with Qin Fu, but ti was ticking for Cui Zhu.
She had neither the strength nor the energy to spar intellectually with Qin Fu.
To buy ti for Cui Zhu’s treatnt, she got straight to the point.
"Lord Qin, you had Liu Shu lying low beside for so long just for that batch of firearms, isn’t that a bit too much of a waste of ti?"
"I thought you wanted sothing important, but it’s just so weapons. Let tell you clearly, I have far more than those firearms in my possession, many more good things you haven’t even thought of."
