Chapter 50: A Woman of Unknown Origin (1)
Zhou Yan suddenly attacked, and Zhou Cheng was knocked unconscious by Zuo Yu. The former brothers have now become rivals, and even rivals in love. Zhou Yan took his subordinates and left the royal city, taking Yin Yin with him. The event that would have caused a commotion was completely suppressed by Zhou Cheng, but this did not mean that he would stop there. The only person in the court who could fight against Zhou Yan was Shan Zhen, apart from himself. Zhou Cheng issued an urgent order to recall Shan Zhen who was away on business...
Zhou State [Changcheng].
Shan Zhen is now in the city, which is one of the cities he passed through during his long journey. Shan Zhen left his resting place for some reason. Wearing a military uniform would inevitably attract attention, so he changed into casual clothes. For a small city like [Changcheng], Shan Zhen's appearance is extremely outstanding. When he walks on the street, he gets a lot of attention. However, he himself doesn't think so. Suddenly, Shan Zhen, who was walking on the main road, cut into the alley, and a figure hurriedly followed. This figure had just stepped into the alley...
“Ugh!!!”
Shan Zhen grabbed him from behind, pushed him against the wall , and covered his mouth.
"Is it you?"
After pressing the man against the wall, Shan Zhen was surprised to find that the person who had been following him was actually the woman he met in the woods before, and she was still dressed in men's clothes.
“Mmmmm—”
The woman shook her head, as if she wanted Shan Zhen to release the hand that was sealing her mouth, and...
"Uh, ah—"
After Shan Zhen understood what the other party meant, he found that his other hand was pressing on the other party's chest. He quickly let go of his hands.
"Why are you always like this? You suddenly yelled and woke me up in the woods, and now you arrest people without even checking the situation. Do I have a grudge against you? Or did I owe you something in my past life? Do you think you're great just because you're a general? Can you arrest people at will just because you're a general?"
"…I didn't know you were sleeping in the woods. I'm sorry for waking you up, but why did you keep following me after that? What's your intention? What's your purpose?"
"Huh? Who followed you? Do you have any shame? Do you own this road alone? You walk in front and I walk behind, so that's called stalking? Besides, who said I was following you? Is it okay for me to walk behind you?"
The woman had a stubborn look on her face and tried to make excuses, leaving Shan Zhen speechless.
"…I apologize for any offense I have caused you. From now on, please don't do that again, I may hurt you. That's all I have to say. I'm leaving now."
After racking his brains, Shan Zhen still didn't want to get into trouble, so he left after giving a brief warning.
"Hey! Stop right there!!"
When the woman saw Shan Zhen leaving, she hurriedly ran in front of him and stopped him.
"May I ask what else the young lady needs?"
"It's not the case, but you just took advantage of her, don't you want to make up for it a little ?"
Shan Zhen was ashamed. What was this? Blackmail?
"If you don't want to compensate me, that's fine. I can also tell others that you violated me—"
"you!!!!!!!"
After hearing what the young woman said, Shan Zhen had no way to defend himself, but it seemed that it was true. However, that was because she was following him and the situation occurred without her knowledge. It was not Shan Zhen's intention.
"Hehe! Don't worry, I'm not asking you to marry me, I'll forgive you if I treat you to a meal, how about that?"
The woman put on a smiling face. To be honest, she looked even more dazzling in the daytime than the last time he saw her in the woods at night. She had a petite body, fair skin, delicate face, and perfect facial features. Even though she was dressed in men's clothes, and even though Dan Zhen lacked appreciation for women, he knew that the woman in front of him was a little beauty, but he didn't seem to have much interest in her.
Speaking of eating, Shan Zhen just remembered that she went out without eating anything in the morning. In the blink of an eye, it was already past noon. She was busy running around and forgot about hunger. Now that she mentioned it, she was really a little hungry. In this case, Shan Zhen could only go along with the favor and treat her to a meal...
You have to choose a place to eat. The woman dragged Shan Zhen to choose a hotel that is considered to be the best inn in Changcheng. The cost must be high. Shan Zhen didn't care. As long as he could fill his stomach, any place would be fine. By the time he realized what was happening, the woman had already ordered the dishes. Looking at the table full of luxurious dishes, Shan Zhen was silent again...
"What's wrong? Eat quickly!"
The woman was eating without hesitation while reminding Shan Zhen. Seeing her like this, should we say she was wolfing down the food? But she didn't feel that way. It wasn't the same to say she was too hungry. She always felt that she was very generous when eating. In this respect, she was really a bit like a man...
"My two guests, this is the Bamboo Leaf Green you requested."
The waiter brought a jug of wine.
"Okay, go down."
"Okay!"
The woman picked up the wine and poured it for Shan Zhen first, then poured it for herself. Shan Zhen could only watch in silence. He didn't expect that she could actually drink?
"I heard that the bamboo leaf green here is famous far and wide, why not try it?"
The woman had already raised her glass to drink. Shan Zhen looked at her and also picked up the glass and drank it all. He had tasted countless wines, and this wine was really quite good. In short, it was just okay.
"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Feng Jingyi, what's yours?"
"Shan Zhen!"
Shan Zhen gave a simple answer. After hearing the woman's name, Feng Qinghan's name flashed through Shan Zhen's mind. Same last name 'Feng'? He thought of it, but Shan Zhen didn't care much.
