Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Liu Shii raised her eyebrows and asked, “How do you plan to resolve this? Explain clearly why, and then the two of you fight to the death? Either he poisons you to death, or you use your formidable strength to kill him?”
It seed quite challenging for these two to reconcile on their own terms.
But if she intervened, there might be a chance of success.
Currently, Zhong Lang was under her command, and as for Mu Jiangli… Although she didn’t understand why, he seed to respect her quite a lot?
Yes, there was respect in those interactions. It was this sense of respect that kept her from distancing herself.
She chuckled and said to Zhong Lang, “If you die, who will fulfill our five-year contract?”
Zhong Lang looked puzzled.
Liu Shii sighed and said, “Since you ntioned Wu Duosi, or Wu Qiang. If he’s related to the Colored Glass Pavilion, I’ll have to consult dicine Lord about it. Mr. Zhong, I am safe in the Liang family. You can rest today, or if you have personal matters to attend to, go ahead. I’ll talk to Lord Mu. If I can resolve your grievances, that would be ideal. If not, I’ll at least inquire about Wu Qiang’s involvent.”
She wouldn’t blindly trust one side’s words. She wanted to hear Mu Jiangli’s side of the story too.
Instinctively, she felt that Mu Jiangli treated her well. His inexplicable respect was peculiar. If she asked him so questions, he should respond, right?
This unnad confidence made her feel slightly embarrassed!
Seeing that she didn’t seem inclined to punish him imdiately, Zhong Lang thought, ‘This matter can be discussed later.’
He made a fist and said, “Thank you, Eldest Miss, Zhong Lang bids farewell.”
But as he turned away, Liu Shii suddenly rembered another question. “Mu Jiangli wants to kill you. What about you?”
What she wanted to ask was, “Do you want to kill Mu Jiangli too?”
Zhong Lang hesitated and said, “He has tried to kill several tis, but no matter what, he detoxified and saved my life. Let’s consider it even, balancing grievances with kindness.”
“Alright, I understand,” Liu Shii nodded.
Zhong Lang then left.
The room fell silent.
It was almost midnight, and Liu Shii hadn’t had dinner yet, feeling famished. The events of the day, coupled with the information she had bought from the Pavilion of Six Paths and Eight Directions, were already overwhelming. Add to that the complicated relationship between Mu Jiangli and Zhong Lang. Liu Shii felt like her brain was about to explode!
A brainstorming session couldn’t compare to this.
Mo’er ca in with the dinner, looking worried. “Eldest Young Miss, please eat quickly. It’s so late! You’re always like this, so busy that you forget to take care of yourself. Even the servants have had their dinner, and here you are, starving!”
Liu Shii smiled faintly, “A al or two won’t hurt.”
“Who says it won’t hurt?” Mo’er muttered, “Dare you say that to the Prince?!”
Liu Shii paused.”…”
She couldn’t!
Would she dare to tell the stubborn dog, “A al or two won’t hurt”? She had a strong intuition that he would get angry.
The silly puppy was usually obedient and affectionate, but when he was angry, he could be quite fierce. Why should she subject herself to that tornt?
She took so ti to finish her al. Afterward, she asked where Mu Jiangli was staying and planned to find him tonight.
She desperately wanted to know: Did Mu Jiangli have any news about Wu Qiang? Did he know anything related to Liu Quan?
Was it the case that Wen Gui married and settled down, and Wu Qiang, who road the Jianghu, had died? Who was the person that betrayed her brother?
Or was it possible that both of them were involved?
