My Wife Is The Final Boss - Chapter 31
Chapter 31 What Does Being Liked By Her Mean?
Liu Qingluo’s mind was in a mess. When she saw the young man with the sword walking towards her, she subconsciously took a step back.
“I’m not here to attract trouble.” The young man was very helpless.
Liu Qingluo watched as he held a large amount of banknotes in one hand and specially talked to the woman at the brothel. No matter how she looked at it, he was here to look for a woman.
But it had nothing to do with her. Liu Qingluo turned to leave.
Now that she had someone she liked, even if no one asked her, she was unwilling to talk to strangers.
However, the young man’s next words made Liu Qingluo stop in her tracks.
“Do you know Senior Zhu?” A few silver lights flashed in the young man’s eyes, then he said seriously, “You have the mark of Chaoyun Sect on you.”
He didn’t come to look for her because he felt that Liu Qingluo was a prostitute. It was purely because he sensed Zhu Pingniang’s aura on Liu Qingluo.
“Senior… Zhu? Are you talking about Pingniang?” Liu Qingluo stopped in her tracks. She looked at the sword-shaped object wrapped in a white cloth behind the young man and thought to herself that it was indeed an immortal sect disciple.
“Yes.” The young man took a step forward. “I’m Sikong Jing. I’m here on the orders of my master to meet Senior Zhu.”
Liu Qingluo took a step back and looked at the young man in front of her seriously.
The front, back, collar, sleeves, collar, cuffs, pocket, door, buttons… Everything was neat and in line with the rules.
Coupled with the gentleness on his face, his lips were red and his teeth were white. He was simply the most perfect young man.
He should be someone who followed the rules.
“If Young Master wants to see Pingniang, you can go up from here and report to Sister Lu on the top floor.” Liu Qingluo pointed in a direction.
“There’s no hurry.” Sikong Jing’s eyes were serious. He looked at Liu Qingluo and said, “There’s something I don’t understand. Please enlighten me.”
Liu Qingluo didn’t want to talk to outsiders, but the other party was from an immortal sect and was Zhu Pingniang’s junior. She couldn’t brush off Zhu Pingniang’s acquaintance, so she could only say, “Young Master is too polite. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
Sikong Jing looked at the passersby in confusion and said, “There are fences everywhere here. Those girls are all from brothels.”
Liu Qingluo nodded.
“Since their lives are not going well, I wanted to pay money to redeem them and not ask them to do anything…” Sikong Jing held the banknote and was puzzled.” But they called me stupid.”
Of course, the girls did not scold him openly. After rejecting him, they thanked him and laughed after walking far away.
Liu Qingluo was speechless.
Wasn’t he a fool to take money on the streets to redeem the girls for free?
On the account that he was Zhu Pingniang’s junior, Liu Qingluo asked, “Young Master, you shouldn’t do such a thing.”
“Why?” Sikong Jing’s eyes were clear.
“Let me ask you, why did Young Master want do this?” Liu Qingluo asked.
“In the beginning, I did it out of fun. There was no reason.” Sikong Jing shook his head, but after being rejected by a few girls in a row, he really started to be curious.
“Huh?” Liu Qingluo was stunned when she heard that. She smiled and thought to herself that this immortal sect disciple was indeed not very smart.
“The girls didn’t seem to know what they wanted,” Sikong Jing said seriously.
That lifeless gaze made him feel that being a girl in a brothel was a very painful thing.
“The people who went over just now?” Liu Qingluo was slightly stunned. Then, she looked at her sisters who were leaving in a hurry and sighed. “They’re all night owls. They only have energy at night. They’re still sleepy.”
Sikong Jing frowned and said, “Miss, I want to hear the truth, not a joke.”
“The truth is.” Liu Qingluo pointed at the tall buildings in the distance and said, “This isn’t all mud.”
What did the hook bars outside look like?
Liu Qingluo had the honor of witnessing it.
If she were to accept a guest, the lady at the top of the list would be given twelve taels. Among them, the aunties and servants would each be given one tael, the brothel owner would be given five taels, and the shopkeeper would take out half of the money from her five taels. This half was the money that the lady could get.
This was not an exaggeration. Exploitation was that serious.
However, the girls in the Northern Mulberry City could keep 70% of the money. Moreover, because it was close to the immortal sect, she had never heard of any demon disasters.
In the Northern Mulberry City, there was a large group of sisters who could take care of each other. There was a prosperous town, a relatively stable living environment, and enough money to use.
“To wade the muddy waters outside?’
Liu Qingluo also had the ability to brew wine. What was the point of the other sisters redeeming themselves? They had long adapted to life in Northern Mulberry City. If this place was compared to a quagmire, there might not be clear waters outside the quagmire.
After so many years, who could not save up enough money to redeem themselves?
“Young Master, I still have something on. Please go ahead.” Liu Qingluo bowed and left.
Sikong Jing was left staring after her in a daze.
Liu Qingluo thought to herself that only with a comparison could she know how big the difference between people was. She originally thought that the immortal sect would be better, but in the end, it was no different from the young man from before. It was just that the rich stood higher and the immortal sect stood even higher.
He was clearly about the same age as Young Master Xu, but he was worlds apart from her sweetheart.
Xu Chang’an had never said that he wanted to redeem a girl, let alone feel that it was not good to live here.
However, she did not hate Sikong Jing. After all, the other party wanted to help her sisters, so she bowed to him when she left.
….
Sikong Jing’s heart skipped a beat. Was he hated by that girl?
He was about to break through to the Brightheart Realm, so he wanted to do as he pleased.
If there was something he didn’t understand, he would ask. It was nothing embarrassing.
Recalling the cold gaze Liu Qingluo gave him at the end, Sikong Jing’s heart suddenly throbbed. This made his breathing speed up, and a trace of shock flashed across his eyes.
His heart was actually in a mess. Why?
He was not a person who liked beauty, and Liu Qingluo’s appearance was not outstanding, but his heart did have some ripples.
It had to be known that his Sword Heart was connected to the Heavenly Mirror behind him.
Could it be that it wasn’t his heart that was in a mess, but Lian Yi’s… Sky Inspection Sword?
Sikong Jing took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He would pay his respects to the mountain first. He would find out about this mysterious woman later. Since she was Zhu Pingniang’s person, she could not escape.
There was a strange girl in this world whose heart was higher than the sky, but now she was stranded on a young man’s knee pillow.
Yun Qian had never liked anyone in the past.
However, not long ago, she had personally said that she liked Liu Qingluo because the wine she brewed was delicious and had good taste.
It was not clear what it meant to be liked by someone other than Xu Chang’an.
….
On the cloud boat, Xu Chang’an felt Yun Qian’s breathing become chaotic for a moment. Then, he lowered his head and met a pair of hazy eyes.
“Are you awake?” Xu Chang’an gently wiped the tears from the corners of Yun Qian’s eyes.
“Yes.” Yun Qian sat up and leaned against Xu Chang’an. She slowly said, “I had a dream.”
“What did you dream about?” Xu Changan asked.
“I dreamed that many people don’t like you,” Yun Qian said calmly.

No one knew what it meant to be liked by her, but being hated by her would definitely not end well.
