Phantom Spear - C180

The last time he said it: When the shopkeeper saw that Faang Xinyao wanted to buy jade as a gift to Young Master Liu, he made up his mind. The shopkeeper said that he would give it away for free, but that he would have to go and drink a cup of wine on the day of Faang Xinyao and Young Master Liu’s marriage. That way, he could take the opportunity to brag about how he had brought the two of them together. However, in Faang Xinyao’s heart, he naturally knew that he would never be able to be together with Young Master Liu, but every single movement from Young Master Liu suddenly surfaced in her mind. She was unable to deceive him …

The shopkeeper came back after a while regretting his decision. He then took out the account book of the shop and began to meticulously calculate. Lu Jianfei took the lead and walked in, and asked: “Innkeeper, please ask.” Before he even finished speaking, the shopkeeper had already noticed Lu Jianfei’s temperament and spoke first: “Yo, Sir, we have some good treasures jade in our shop, whatever you want, quickly take a look. If you have a good look, I will give you a discount.” Lu Jianfei saw that he was chattering nonstop, he immediately stopped and spoke sternly: “Innkeeper, we did not come here today to buy jade, you can temporarily stop selling, have you seen a young and beautiful lady with a oval face and an elegant demeanor?” Although Lu Jianfei’s words were said in a very general manner, the shopkeeper’s ability to read other people’s faces was very impressive, and he immediately thought of Faang Xinyao’s appearance. However, as Lu Jianfei had just stabbed him a moment ago, he was slightly displeased in his heart, and purposely said: “Honored official, isn’t what you said too common? I think that there are a lot of girls like this that can easily be found on the streets. After Jiang Feng heard these words, he wanted to continue introducing Faang Xinyao’s appearance in detail, but he was stopped by Lu Jianfei. He continued: “Oh? Could the shopkeeper really not remember the girl I just described? ” The shopkeeper looked at Lu Jianfei and revealed a helpless expression, and said: “I really can’t remember, my shop is the best jade shop in the capital, there are too many customers coming and going, and I’m old, I’m really sorry.” Lu Jianfei suddenly sneered and directly placed the sword on the counter. He glared at him and shouted: “Shopkeeper, don’t try to hide this from me. The shopkeeper was so frightened of Lu Jianfei that his heart turned cold. Even Jiang Feng, who was standing at the side, could feel the majesty that Lu Jianfei had at the moment. Lu Jianfei stared at him, then said sternly: “Innkeeper, I’ll give you one more chance, I don’t like people deceiving me, quickly tell me, where did that lady go?” The shopkeeper had interacted with many different kinds of people, so he naturally could guess that Lu Jianfei was an official in the imperial court, and was of great power. If he continued to lie to him right now, there was a high chance that he would be killed. The shopkeeper tried his best to calm himself down and said, “Eh, that lady did come by earlier, but she seems to be walking towards the city gate.” Lu Jianfei continued to ask: “Then what is she doing here, buying jade?” The shopkeeper noticed that Lu Jianfei’s tone had softened, and felt slightly relieved, and said: “That lady seems to have come to buy jade for that Young Noble.” Hearing his words, Jiang Feng’s mind was in a mess, he said: “Innkeeper, may I ask who the Young Noble you’re talking about is?” Lu Jianfei looked at Jiang Feng, pointed at him, and asked: “So you have seen that Young Noble, is he that Young Noble?” The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Feng carefully, and regardless of whether it was appearance or temperament, they were all lacking by a level. He shook his head, and the guess in Lu Jianfei’s heart was confirmed, but with his personality, he would not ignore any clues.

Lu Jianfei felt it was strange, and asked Jiang Feng softly: “Faang Xinyao has not been in the capital for long, she used to be a lady of a noble family, so she shouldn’t have the chance to meet people from the capital. Chiang Feng, other than you, does she have any other good friends?” Jiang Feng thought for a moment, then said with certainty: “It should be gone, Brother Lu, uh, you know the Lady Faang she is …” Lu Jianfei nodded her head: “Alright, I understand, shopkeeper. Hearing you say this, you must have met that Young Noble, can you tell me how he looks like?” The shopkeeper tried his best to recall the appearance of the Young Master Liu and after a while, he said, “I may not be light on the specifics. That young master has a very high temperament, I think he should be a child of a rich family. “He has a handsome face, a straight nose and extremely beautiful facial features. Having run this shop for so many years, he should be the most handsome young master I’ve ever met.” Jiang Feng thought: Just because you said that doesn’t mean you didn’t say anything. As he was speaking these words in his heart, a figure flashed into his mind. Lu Jianfei was still deep in thought. Jiang Feng approached and whispered, “Master Lu, I think we should chase after Lady Faang first.” Seeing how determined Jiang Feng was, Lu Jianfei believed his. The shopkeeper asked, “Sir, is there anything else I can help you with?” Lu Jianfei raised his treasured sword, leaving behind a sentence: “No more, remember, in the future, do not lie to anyone again.” He walked out of the jade store together with Jiang Feng. The shopkeeper looked at their backs, and waved his hands a few times, and said angrily: “It’s impressive if you’re looking for a job in the imperial court, but you’re just a dog by the emperor’s side. Today was truly the unlucky day of eight lifetimes. One was as cold as ice, with a weird temper, while the other looked down on everyone else. “Humph!” The shopkeeper began to complain after a few incense sticks of time.

When the two of them came out, Jiang Feng said, “Master Lu, let’s hurry to the city gate so that we don’t have to face any conflicts between Lady Faang and the city guards.” Lu Jianfei pressed his hand on Jiang Feng’s shoulder and asked: “There’s no rush. Faang Xinyao won’t be in any danger. However, you said earlier that you knew who the owner’s young master was, so you should quickly tell me right now. ” Jiang Feng seemed to have forgotten about this matter. Perhaps, he felt that the safety of his good friend was more important than this. Seeing that Lu Jianfei was so stubborn, Jiang Feng could only say: “Master Lu, after hearing shopkeeper’s description, I only have one answer, that person must be Young Master Liu.” Lu Jianfei was not surprised, and asked again, “Young Master Liu? “Who is it?” Seeing that Lu Jianfei’s curiosity had dropped, Jiang Feng knew that he probably already guessed who it was. After all, with Young Master Liu’s outer appearance and temperament, Lu Jianfei definitely knew about it. Jiang Feng let out a light sigh, and said: “Master Lu, I’m talking about Young Master Liu, and I don’t know his real name either. I only know that he’s currently …” Hearing this, Lu Jianfei interrupted: “Enough, I know who you’re talking about, Liu Ruo Han.” Jiang Feng did not catch what was behind and said, “Ah? “What?” However, Lu Jianfei had already taken a few steps back, and said: “Chiang Feng, hurry up and catch up with us, otherwise your good friend will be injured.” Jiang Feng immediately rolled his eyes. He was not used to Lu Jianfei’s actions, it was as if he was going to collapse. He endured the anger in his heart and quickly followed suit.

Faang Xinyao unknowingly walked towards the city gate, but the depression in her heart did not lessen at all. She looked up at the sky and sighed, “God, you are truly being unfair to us. God is merciful, it’s just a empty saying.” Just as she was complaining about it, the city guards had long seen Faang Xinyao. He quickly informed the city guards and said, “Master Jin, look, isn’t that the lady Master Lu was talking about?” The officer with the surname Jin quickly put down his tea cup and looked over. He exclaimed: “It really is the person described by the Master Lu. Go, the four of you go and stop her.” The bodyguard accepted the order and called his three brothers over.

What about later?

And then we’ll see how it breaks down in the next round.
