My Wife Is The Final Boss - Chapter 23
Chapter 23 Liu Qingluo’s Problem
From the high platform of the Flower Moon House, one could see most of the scenery of North Mulberry City.
Zhu Pingniang was wearing a thin dress and lying on the bamboo chair in the middle of the platform like Yun Qian. There was a red embroidered shoe hanging on the tip of her fair feet, swaying slightly with the wind.
She picked up the beauty fruit and took a bite. Then, she realized that Xu Chang’an was looking at her and smiled.
“Discovered?” Zhu Pingniang swallowed the fruit. “This child is still as smart as ever.”
She had no choice.
As the manager of the Flower Moon House, she had raised many girls. She had too many things to worry about.
Even if Liu Qingluo had already redeemed herself and opened a wine shop with her help… she would still care about her.
Xu Chang’an lived in North Mulberry City and had seen her help the girls solve problems many times.
It was also strange.
Just now, the weather suddenly cleared up. She came out to take a look in a daze and didn’t find anything. Just as she was about to go back, she realized that Xu Chang’an had brought his wife out.
He peeked around for a while.
Zhu Pingniang recalled the scene in the pavilion when Yun Qian imitated the man and woman on the boat and took the initiative to kiss Xu Chang’an. She could not help but smile.
Although she was a little surprised, she would not take back her evaluation of Yun Qian. Zhu Pingniang thought that Yun Qian was still boring, inflexible, and pure.
If Miss Yun was only at this level, she would not be able to hold her husband’s heart.
Out of curiosity, she did not help Liu Qingluo resolve the problem. Instead, she let it go.
A smile hung on Zhu Pingniang’s lips. She really wanted to see what Xu Chang’an would do when he went out with his wife… and encountered a girl who had feelings for him.
In front of his wife, should he save the damsel in distress?
As for Liu Qingluo’s current shock… Zhu Pingniang felt that Liu Qingluo should be grateful to her for letting Xu Chang’an save her.
Besides.
The courtesans under her were not that weak.
In front of the wine shop.
Xu Chang’an retracted his gaze. With his eyesight, he could not see as far as the Flower Moon House. He just instinctively felt that Manager Zhu was looking at him.
What did she mean?
Xu Chang’an could not understand Zhu Pingniang’s thoughts.
Could it be that Manager Zhu was too lazy to move and left it to him? Xu Chang’an felt that this was very likely.
He was indebted to Manager Zhu, so it was only right for him to help her resolve some troubles.
“No.” Liu Qingluo’s face flashed across Xu Chang’an’s mind.
The girl who was always smiling should be uneasy now.
The current him could not say that Liu Qingluo had nothing to do with him. Therefore, Xu Chang’an and Zhu Pingniang thought differently. He had never thought that he was saving the damsel in distress in front of his wife.
The road to the end of the world is narrow. Meeting is fate.
What did his name, Chang’an, mean?
Xu Chang’an felt that this was a very interesting question. To him, if the people around him could be safe, it should be in line with the meaning of long-term peace.
Not far away, the guard in front of the wine shop saw the young man walking over slowly. He was stunned for a moment before saying sternly, “Stop…”
Before he could speak, his voice was stuck in his throat because the person who was still far away a second ago suddenly appeared in front of him. Immediately after, he felt a wave of sleepiness surge up in his heart and he fell to the ground.
The silver light in Xu Chang’an’s hand left a silver spot on the other party’s neck.
With a series of clanging sounds, the group of guards fell to the ground. Xu Chang’an circulated his True Essence and folded the guards and threw them to the side of the road.
Then, he wrapped his entire body with spiritual power and isolated all traces. He quietly walked into the wine shop and stood in a dark corner, looking at Liu Qingluo and the young man in embroidered clothes who were silent.
He didn’t know what had happened, so he dealt with the vicious dog blocking the door first. As for why he didn’t directly help Liu Qingluo resolve the problem, it was because Xu Chang’an was imitating Zhu Pingniang’s style of doing things.
He had seen Zhu Pingniang help a girl resolve her troubles. She usually watched from the side. When the matter completely exceeded the girl’s ability, she would take action.
Actually, since he was going to watch first, there was no need for him to deal with that group of guards. There were several reasons why he was so decisive with them however..
Firstly, in keeping with his personality, he wanted to rush up and knock out the young man in embroidered clothes in front of Liu Qingluo and throw him out. He didn’t want to stay here and watch. He had an unknown anger in his heart, so he vented it out. Secondly, this group of guards pushed the girl with the kasaya. He usually went to see Zhu Pingniang and had often taken the girl’s boat. He could be considered to have avenged her.
Thirdly…
Xu Changan thought that this was one of the few times when he could show his strength in front of Yun Qian. He naturally wouldn’t miss this good opportunity.
After knocking out the guards, he wanted to tell Yun Qian, “Look, your husband is still very powerful.”
However, when he really turned around and saw Yun Qian’s calm gaze, he immediately felt that life was boring.
Speaking of which, Xu Chang’an looked at the quiet bar and was a little confused.
He was here to settle the trouble. Regardless of whether it was Liu Qingluo or the young man opposite him, they did not say anything and just sat there.
If not for Liu Qingluo’s pale face, he would have thought that the two of them were friends and were drinking.
Xu Chang’an shook his head as his gaze swept across the yellow contract on the table.
He could more or less guess.
This man must have taken a fancy to Liu Qingluo and wanted her to sign the contract.
Outside the wine shop, Yun Qian thought about the smug look Xu Chang’an gave her when he turned around and smiled.
She looked in the direction of the Floral Moon House and then retracted her gaze.
To Yun Qian, Zhu Pingniang’s gaze was no different from the gazes of the others on the street.
The girl holding the kasaya watched as Xu Chang’an dealt with the guards neatly. She heaved a sigh of relief and gradually fell to the ground, panting heavily.
Since Young Master Xu had taken action, Sister Liu should be safe.
As she was thinking, she suddenly saw someone walk up to her. Just one look made her feel ashamed.
It was Miss Yun, Young Master Xu’s wife.
Although she was wearing a veil, she recognized Yun Qian.
“Sister… Sister Yun… No, Miss Yun, I’ve caused trouble for you and Young Master.” Thinking of her performance just now, a strong sense of uneasiness welled up in her heart. She almost instantly understood what it meant for Xu Chang’an to interfere in the girl’s business while shopping with his wife.
Any woman would be jealous.
However, to the girl’s surprise, Yun Qian casually said, “As long as he doesn’t think it’s troublesome.
“Oh right.” Yun Qian thought of something and asked, “What do you think of him?”
Although she did not name him, the girl said without thinking, “Miss, Young Master is a good person.”
“Then…” Yun Qian gently lifted the edge of her dress. She squatted down and looked at the trembling eyes of the girl in front of her. “Do you like him?”
