Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Chapter 239: The diligent maidservant vs. the playful young master (2)

Yan Xi thought it through, then stepped forward, opened the door on the other side, and greeted the people outside.

"Please come in first, adults. There is hot water boiling in the backyard. I will go and get it for you adults."

As soon as she opened the door, she turned around and went to the backyard to fetch the hot water from the stove for making tea.

Seeing the innkeeper coming back, the military officer who knocked on the door stepped forward to answer it. His tone was much kinder than that of those who usually took advantage of their official positions to bully others.

"We can do it ourselves."

Then, he said respectfully to the officer who slowly walked into the gate:

"Hot water, sir."

"Drink some to warm your bodies first, and give some to Lord Wang as well. We have finally captured him, don't let him die easily."

The officer who responded spoke in a flat tone, but his few words were chillingly cold.

Just hearing these words makes people think of the cold-blooded and ruthless act of punishing criminals with a whip.

Yan Xi shuddered involuntarily, and felt that the voice was very familiar, so she couldn't help but look up.

The man was wearing a scarlet brocade fur coat, and he stood tall and graceful. He used his slender fingers to brush off the fallen snow on his body. His movements were casual, yet with a bit of the dignity that only a young man from an aristocratic family could have.

He came towards the sunlight, and his handsome face slowly emerged.

"Well."

Yan Xi cried out in surprise, but quickly covered her mouth, turned around and wanted to leave.

The people in the command department were all highly skilled in martial arts and had sharp five senses. They all heard the shop owner's surprise, but did not pay much attention to it.

Ever since their master was promoted from assistant commander to commander-in-chief, they would always hear such exclamations when they were on missions outside.

The lord is handsome, tall and slender, and although he has a cold and expressionless face, there are still many women who have a crush on him.

Anyway, adults will ignore such people, and they don't need to pay special attention to them.

But they didn't expect that the officer, who they thought they would ignore, suddenly stopped the innkeeper who was about to leave:

"and many more."

"You, turn around."

Yan Xi pretended not to hear and continued walking forward. The person who had just opened his mouth to stop her strode forward and soon caught up with her.

The man put his hand on her shoulder, stopping her from escaping.

"My Lord, what can I do for you?"

Yan Xi's voice was trembling, and she was so nervous that it was almost unrecognizable as her original voice.

No one answered her. Yan Xi only felt the hand on her shoulder became heavier. She was unable to resist the force and turned around uncontrollably, meeting an indescribable gaze from someone.

"Yanxi."

It is a very affirmative voice.

Yan Xi tried to lower her eyes or look left and right to avoid the gaze from the opposite side, but that gaze was like an iron chain that bound her tightly.

'He recognized me, and there was no way to hide from me.'

Thinking of this, Yan Xi stopped dodging. She raised her head and looked straight into Su Qian's eyes, with pure surprise and astonishment in her voice.

"Second Young Master? What a coincidence! How come you are here?"

skillful?

Hearing this word, Su Qian just wanted to laugh at himself.

In the past three years, in addition to working for the emperor, the most important thing he did was to send people to look for news about Yan Xi.

He has been climbing up the ladder without regard for his life for three years just to gain enough power so that he can find his missing lover and keep him/her close to him/her.

It was a pleasant surprise that I happened to meet Yan Xi on my way back from catching a criminal today.

However, even if he didn't meet her today, Su Qian already had a lot of information about Yan Xi's whereabouts. After completing the mission, he would definitely be able to find Yan Xi's whereabouts within half a month.

If Yan Xi chose to leave three years ago, he should have followed her wishes and not pursue her. Giving others freedom is what the world calls true love.

But Su Qian only thought about it once and rejected the idea.

Let her go, don't even think about it.

It’s just… how to bring the person into his arms without making a sound requires him to think for a while, and only after setting up a tight net can he reveal his true face.

Su Qian's eyes lingered for a few moments on this face that he could only see in his dreams, but he quickly closed his eyes again.

He put down his hand that was on Yanxi's shoulder and hid all his turbulent emotions well.

"Yes, what a coincidence. I didn't expect that after three years, we would meet again. Miss Yanxi, how are you these days?"

There was no change in his voice, and it was just as calm as when he spoke of feeding 'Lord Wang' water.

Yan Xi, who was originally nervous, felt a little relieved after hearing his words.

Firstly, his tone was calm and there was no emotional fluctuation, and it didn't seem like he still had feelings for her;

Second, Su Qian changed his address to her from "Sister Yanxi" and "Yanxi" to the unfamiliar "Miss Yanxi", and the last sentence of greeting seemed to be added at the last minute, which made it seem as if he had forgotten her.

Last but not least, Su Qian, who used to answer all her questions, now simply avoided her questions, turning the meeting between old friends into a strange greeting.

Combining the above, it is obvious that under the baptism of time, Su Qian, a nobleman, has completely forgotten his former ardent love.

She said, there is no such thing as unchanging love in this world.

Yan Xi didn't care about Su Qian's indifference and indifference, and also forgot how anxious Su Qian was when he called her at the beginning, and said with a smile:

"Everything is fine. Does Mr. Su need anything else? If so, I can go down and prepare it."

"no need."

In order to complete the play, Su Qian nodded coldly at her and returned to the desk next to his subordinates.

A quarter of an hour later, the subordinates drank the hot water and their bodies, which had been chilled by the snow, were warmed up a lot. They also had more strength. It was time to set off.

Su Qian threw down a gold ingot and walked out of the inn with his men.

Get on the horse, pull the reins, drive the horse forward, the whole process goes smoothly.

Soon, the sound of the car gradually faded away.

When a group of horsemen came to a small path, the leading white horse suddenly stopped.

Su Qian turned around on his white horse and gave his subordinates clear instructions:

"Take them back to the capital first, send them to where they should be, and then tell the emperor that I have something to do and will not be back for at least half a month."

The subordinates received the order and continued to move forward according to the original itinerary.

Su Qian rode his horse back towards the inn he had just left.

Take it slow? Plan slowly? Wait until everything is safe before taking someone into your arms?

No, he couldn't wait any longer.

He couldn't wait another three years.

The rapid sound of horse hooves on the snow sounded like the sound of war drums, and the people on horseback were filled with excitement.

In the inn.

Yan Xi had completely let down his guard.

She simply cleaned up the mess, walked to the front door, and was about to close the door and go back to the backyard to rest when a big, strong hand pressed on the door.
