Chapter 128 is quite unrestrained.
Zhou Hanzhang was speechless, and he finally understood why General Gu always wanted to punch Gu Qingfeng whenever he looked at him.
Let alone General Gu, even she herself couldn't help but want to beat him up right now.
"Why are you dragging me here? What are you doing, going to a brothel? Do you even know what's important right now?!" She was truly exasperated.
"You were holding my hand just now, and Liu Niang just let you go. Now I can't even keep up with you!"
What are you doing following Liu Niang?
Zhou Hanzhang now truly wanted to ask the heavens why Gu Qingfeng had to follow him.
Just as Zhou Hanzhang was looking up at the sky speechlessly, General Gu kicked Gu Qingfeng, "Didn't you hear what Hanzhang just said? What exactly are we here for?"
"Weren't we supposed to be out exploring the town? And maybe even get on good terms with Aunt Liu? She seems to be treating us quite well..."
General Gu slapped Gu Qingfeng on the head again, "Who doesn't she act like that with?"
Zhou Hanzhang felt a headache coming on for no reason and didn't want to see Gu Qingfeng anymore. "You guys keep looking around, I'll go take a look first."
He then headed in the direction where Liu Niang had left.
Gu Qingfeng wanted to follow, but Zhou Hanzhang suddenly realized something and said, "If you want to visit the brothels, then go ahead. I'll just walk around by myself. Don't follow me."
Gu Qingfeng didn't dwell on it much. "Then be careful."
Seeing his son like this, General Gu didn't know what to say, so he turned and left, leaving Gu Qingfeng alone on the spot.
"No, why did everyone leave? Never mind, if you're not going to shop, I'll shop by myself."
Zhou Hanzhang walked all the way back to Yunju, only to find that Liu Niang had not returned, but now it would be difficult to find her again.
It's all Gu Qingfeng's fault.
I'm so angry!
At that moment, Shi He arrived, saying, "Young Master."
"So, do you know where she went?"
He Shi shook his head. "I scattered my bodyguards in various corners just in case I lost her again. If there are people in other places, they can find out where she went in time."
"But after losing track of her this time, none of our guards have been able to find any trace of her, which is strange."
"Where did you lose them? I'll go check."
As Zhou Hanzhang spoke, she walked out of the inn, completely unaware that a pair of eyes were watching her from inside.
When did they bring Zhou Hanzhang to the corner of a small alley? "We followed her all the way here, but then we couldn't see her anymore."
Looking at the dark alley, Zhou Hanzhang thought that with him by his side, nothing should go wrong. He gritted his teeth and stepped into the darkness.
As she walked, she suddenly realized something was wrong. The person who should have been following behind her was now completely silent, and the only sounds in the alley were her own breathing and footsteps.
"when?"
She called out softly, but received no response.
She immediately became alert, every cell in her body beginning to deploy its defenses. "When?"
There has still been no response.
After thinking about it for a while, she decided to take a step forward and see what happens.
But as soon as she took a step, she heard a soft laugh coming from the depths of the alley.
"Who?!"
Zhou Hanzhang immediately stopped in his tracks.
"Young master's men have been following me for several days, and they don't know who I am?"
"Liu Niang?"
A beautiful woman from Jiangnan emerged from the shadows; it was Liu Niang.
She looked at Zhou Hanzhang with a smile, "I wonder why you keep following me, young master?"
Zhou Hanzhang's mind raced, but he still asked first, "Where did you take my people?"
"Oh, you mean him?" Liu Niang moved her body slightly, revealing He Shi lying behind her.
Zhou Hanzhang was startled. "What did you do to him?"
"What could I possibly do to a guest? He's just been following me around every day for the past few days, and I'm getting a little annoyed. He seemed quite tired, so I told him to get some sleep."
"Don't you have people nearby? Tell them to come out and take the person back first. We can have a proper talk. You're my guest. If you need any help, just say so. Why keep following me around?"
It seemed that Liu Niang was fully aware of their secret arrangements, so Zhou Hanzhang no longer concealed himself and said, "Come out."
As soon as he finished speaking, several guards emerged from the shadows and knelt before Zhou Hanzhang, saying, "Young Master, we have failed in our duty."
"Let's not talk about that now. Let's take him back and get some rest."
"Yes." The guard replied and quickly pulled He Shi over.
Liu Niang, who was hiding in the shadows, didn't make things difficult for them. When she saw the guards coming, she even stepped aside and told them to wait until they were within reach.
"Oh, and don't forget to find him a doctor," Zhou Hanzhang instructed.
Liu Niang laughed, "It seems you don't trust me."
"It's just a routine procedure; there's no question of belief or disbelief."
"Shall we go for a drink?" Liu Niang invited.
"Okay, shall we go?"
Looking at Liu Niang in front of him, Zhou Hanzhang realized that she meant him no harm, otherwise he would have been long gone.
Besides, it was my fault to begin with, and my people were incompetent. It was really embarrassing that she found out.
Liu Niang led Zhou Hanzhang deeper into the alley, and soon they arrived at a house.
"This is my house here. Come in and have a seat. Let's have a good talk."
Liu Niang opened the gate of the house herself and went inside. There was not a single servant in sight, but the house looked clean and tidy. However, there was an indescribable smell in the air.
"How about it? Not bad, right?"
Zhou Hanzhang nodded. If you ignored the strange smell in the air, it was indeed quite nice, with a feeling of Suzhou gardens.
"Ugh, it's just this smell that just won't go away, it's so annoying."
Zhou Hanzhang didn't speak, but followed her into the guest room. He said to her, "Please sit here for a while, but don't wander around. There are many traps in my house."
After Liu Niang invited her to sit down, she went out. Upon hearing what she said, Zhou Hanzhang gave up her original idea of looking around.
Liu Niang quickly brought up the tea. "I'm so sorry, my house is quite secluded and I don't have any servants. I have to do all the work myself, so please don't feel like I'm neglecting you."
Zhou Hanzhang dared not have any objections, and silently accepted the tea and drank it.
Seeing that Zhou Hanzhang drank the tea without even thinking, Liu Niang laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid I might put something in the tea?"
"If you wanted to do something to me, it would be a simple matter, and you wouldn't need to use these methods, would you? Since you brought me here, I suppose you don't have any ill intentions towards me."
"You're quite perceptive. Tell me, why were you following me?"
Liu Niang sat gently on one of the chairs, leaning back slightly.
The temperament she exudes now has undergone a subtle change compared to before. She looks like Liu Niang from Yunju, but she exudes a completely different feeling from before.
At once……
Quite unrestrained.
