Chapter 83: Attack at Sea (3)
Even Yinyin could sense the strong smell of gunpowder between Ling Yuexue and Guisha. Even she didn't understand why Guisha was so cold to Ling Yuexue. It had never happened before. She only knew that Guisha should hate women, but in the incident with the bandits, Guisha didn't seem particularly disgusted. Why did he change completely when it came to Ling Yuexue? Judging from Yinyin herself, Ling Yuexue was a very considerate and generous person. How did she offend Guisha?
"Um... I like this hairpin very much..."
No matter what, Yin Yin felt that it was better to ease the current atmosphere first, otherwise who knows what might happen.
"...I'm glad you like it. It seems like you should have finished your meal. So let's set off without further delay. The boat is waiting."
The ghost shifted his contemptuous gaze from Ling Yuexue, stood up and spoke, as if he didn't want to spend even a moment with Ling Yuexue anymore.
"well?"
"I'll go clean up, you go wait for me downstairs ."
After saying that to Yinyin, Guisha left without looking back. Yinyin felt helpless about this, because Guisha has always been like this. It was okay if she was used to it, but she still felt it was not good to do it in front of outsiders.
"Ms. Ling, I'm so sorry. My friend was so rude."
"It's okay, it's okay. He looks like he doesn't get along well with others. I can understand that."
Resisting her inner unhappiness, Ling Yuexue smiled at Yinyin, seemingly very considerate, but Yinyin actually felt guilty? She couldn't help but feel angry at Guisha's behavior, but also admired Ling Yuexue's magnanimity.
"I hope Miss Ling doesn't mind."
It’s not that she doesn’t want to explain, but she really doesn’t know where to start. Yin Yin can only laugh it off.
Because of the ghost, Ling Yuexue completely forgot the purpose of this trip, and finally had to say goodbye to Yinyin. She wanted to leave before the ghost appeared again, but just as she arrived at the door, more than 20 people and a large sedan blocked her way. Yinyin, who came to the door to see her off, was also shocked. Although she had sat in many magnificent sedans, the sedan in front of her was not only magnificent, but also a hundred times more exquisite. The carvings on it were also lifelike. The sedan could be made so exquisitely. Yinyin was really shocked. Although it was early, this scene attracted many people to watch...
"Are you Miss Zhang? I'm here to greet you."
A stern-looking man in dark blue came up to Yin Yin and saluted her very respectfully. The people behind him also saluted Yin Yin.
"Who are you?"
"We are servants of Bifeng Mountain, and we have been ordered to come and greet you."
"Bifeng Mountain?"
Yinyin was very confused when she heard the introduction from the visitor, but it caused quite a stir around her. Even Ling Yuexue felt a little aggrieved. Yinyin could vaguely hear some people around her talking about the "Bifeng Mountain" mentioned by the person in front of her...
"It turned out to be Bifeng Mountain——"
"Ah, that's the place where the legend says immortals live."
"Bifeng Mountain is a holy mountain on the Holy Island that is well-known to everyone in our area. Don't they rarely show up? Why would they mobilize so many troops this time? Could it be that the woman is some big shot in the Holy Mountain?"
Yin Yin was also confused when she heard what others were saying. What holy mountain? What Bifeng Mountain? It seemed like a very great place.
“You’re here.”
Just when Yin Yin was wondering about the people around her and everything in front of her, Guisha's voice sounded in her ears. It turned out that he had packed up his things and came out.
"grown ups."
Seeing Guisha coming out of the inn, the people in front of Yinyin bowed to him one after another, which made Yinyin think that he must be someone Guisha knew.
"Why are you still here?"
Ignoring others, Guisha spoke coldly to Ling Yuexue who was beside Yin Yin. Ling Yuexue was so angry that her face turned red.
"Since someone has come to greet you, I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave now. Please take care, Princess."
Without waiting for Yin Yin to respond, Ling Yuexue had already left with her people. It was obvious that she was completely infuriated by Ling Yuexue and finally forgot to maintain her original reserve. Watching Ling Yuexue leave, Yin Yin was not angry at all, but felt a little guilty. She knew that Ling Yuexue must be feeling aggrieved, but she just couldn't understand why the ghost demon always targeted Ling Yuexue like this.
"…Let's go too."
After watching Ling Yuexue walk away, Guisha turned his gaze back and showed a completely blind eye to Ling Yuexue. Yinyin knew Guisha's character very well, and now Ling Yuexue was also angered and left by Guisha, and nothing Yinyin said would help. In fact, she really had no right or method to intervene in how Guisha treated people, so she seemed so helpless and powerless, and could only helplessly witness how Ling Yuexue was treated coldly by Guisha again and again.
Because she was so concerned about Ling Yuexue, she completely ignored the eyes and words of others. Yinyin didn't know how she got on the sedan chair and went to the port in such a luxurious and eye-catching way. She didn't even think deeply about the arrangements and reception. The journey that was very happy before has become meaningless now. What is the reason? I don't know if it is because of Ling Yuexue, but Yinyin's heart is actually uneasy...
