Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?
Chapter 181 Fall into my arms and you're mine
Ji Nuan did not listen to Ji He and go home.
The soap that Qiao Qiao brought back last time was favored by An Chengyun. She asked Ji Nuan to help her to make connections and strive to obtain the sales rights of Kering Mansion.
Ji Nuan went to see Jun Xianlan specifically for this matter. Jun Xianlan replied that she would consider it, but the specific matters had to be discussed in person.
The meeting time agreed by both parties is exactly 3:00 PM this afternoon.
Since it was still early, Ji Nuan didn't plan to make another trip and decided to go to Fusheng Building to kill some time.
She remembered that "A Good Match" had just finished being performed, and Fu Sheng Lou should have returned to its old days of drinking tea and listening to storytellers.
When they arrived at Fusheng Building, Ji Nuan was enthusiastically taken to the second floor by Lou Zhongyu and found a comfortable seat to sit down.
Ji Nuan thought, since she was already here, she might as well mention to Lou Zhongyu that Manager Zhou was planning to publish a book of folk ghost stories.
"Shopkeeper Zhou is preparing a collection of folk ghost stories. I'll have him send a copy over for you to read. We can select a few suitable stories and have the storyteller tell them to build momentum for the new book."
Lou Zhongyu was very interested in Ji Nuan's suggestion. He readily agreed, "Sure. Fushenglou has never told ghost stories before, so we can definitely give it a try. Haha, I think it will be both terrifying and fascinating if told through Mr. Hu's mouth."
It must be said that he and Ji Nuan had the same idea.
Ji Nuan agreed excitedly: "That's right! If we cover the windows and add that creepy music, it's exciting just to think about it!" When she said this, she shuddered involuntarily, as if she was already in a terrifying atmosphere.
Lou Zhongyu was a little worried after hearing this: "This atmosphere is indeed enough, but I'm afraid someone can't stand it and will be frightened into having a problem."
Ji Nuan blinked and uttered a soft "ah", knowing that Lou Zhongyu had misunderstood her. She explained, "I just said that casually. You don't have to arrange everything according to what I said. Just do whatever you think is appropriate."
While the two were talking, Ji Nuan suddenly felt someone watching her nearby.
Following her feeling, she looked over and found a woman of about sixteen or seventeen sitting diagonally with legs bent.
The woman was wearing a light blue dress, tightly tied with a matching belt. The hem of her dress covered the entire cushion, accentuating her slender waist. Her long hair was tied up high, revealing a pretty face.
When Ji Nuan looked over, the almond-shaped eyes met her gaze without hesitation, and he even curled his lips at her casually.
Ji Nuan looked at her and saw that she was dressed elegantly and neatly, and her demeanor seemed carefree and relaxed. She was completely different from those gentle and shy young ladies in the city. She looked more like a female knight who took pleasure in avenging her enemies.
Ji Nuan turned around and gave Lou Zhongyu a few simple instructions before letting him get back to work.
Ji Nuan stayed in Fusheng Building until after half past the hour of Shen before she got up and left.
At the same time, on the top floor of Tianshangxian, Jun Xianlan was being assassinated.
He brought Mo Conglai to the appointment in advance. As soon as he sat down on the top floor and had no time to drink a sip of tea, a sharp blade stabbed at him like lightning.
He had been poisoned for many years and was no longer able to fight. Fortunately, Mo Cong reacted quickly and pulled him to the side, allowing him to narrowly avoid the attack.
However, this was just the beginning. Despite missing the target, the assassin didn't stop. Instead, three more accomplices emerged from the shadows, surrounding Jun Xianlan and her servant.
The two sides fought back and forth, the fight was difficult to resolve. Mo Cong tried his best to protect Jun Xianlan, but two fists could not beat four hands, and there were times when he could not take care of them.
The two were forced to the blockade, and an assassin took advantage of the moment when Mo Cong was entangled and slapped Jun Xianlan away with a palm.
Mo Cong was shocked upon seeing this and turned to rescue her, but he didn't care that someone was attacking him from behind. With a "swish", a sharp blade ripped through his clothes, deeply slicing his back. Even so, he couldn't grab even a corner of Jun Xianlan's clothes, and could only watch Jun Xianlan fall from the building like a kite with a broken string.
Ji Nuan didn't expect to meet the woman in green again in front of the Heavenly Immortal Gate.
She was about to go forward and say hello, but she saw the woman lightly tap her feet and fly up, instantly catching a figure falling from a height.
The passersby who saw this scene went from screaming in surprise to looking like they were enjoying the show.
The woman in green lowered her head to meet a face that captivated everyone. She couldn't help but whistle in amazement and teased, "A handsome man fell from the sky."
"If you fall into my arms, you're mine!"
Ji Nuan now saw clearly that the person who fell was Jun Xianlan. She quickly ran forward and asked with concern, "Jun Xianlan, how are you? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine. There's an assassin up there, and Mo Cong is still up there." Jun Xianlan said anxiously. Before he fell, he saw Mo Cong being hacked by the assassin behind him.
"You stay down there, I'll go save Mo Cong." The situation was urgent. Ji Nuan left a message and then jumped up like a light swallow, reaching the top floor in two strides.
"Miss Ji, it's dangerous!" Jun Xianlan shouted anxiously.
He didn't bother to thank the woman in green at this moment, nor did he have time to care about her teasing. He just shouted anxiously, "Put me down!"
The woman in green raised her lips slightly and asked with interest, "Do you want to go up too?"
But without waiting for Jun Xianlan to answer, she flashed and jumped to the top floor with Jun Xianlan.
Ji Nuan went up to the roof first. Seeing the scarlet blood behind Mo Cong, with the wound visible to the bone, she immediately joined the battle. She kicked an assassin away, stepped to Mo Cong's side, pulled him behind her, snatched the knife from his hand, and started fighting with him.
"Miss Ji!" Mo Cong exclaimed.
"Shut up! You're almost bleeding out." While Ji Nuan was fighting the enemy, a silver needle flew towards Mo Cong.
Mo Cong suddenly felt that the blood on his back had stopped.
When Jun Xianlan was brought up by the woman in green, Ji Nuan was holding Mo Cong's knife, protecting him behind him, fighting one against four.
Seeing that Ji Nuan was already difficult to deal with alone, the assassin realized that if he continued to fight with another person, he would not get any benefits, so he quickly put away his knife and scattered.
Since they had hurt people, Ji Nuan would never let them leave easily. A handful of silver needles flew out, and the four people were immediately unable to move, as if they were frozen in place, and then fell from mid-air.
Mo Cong had to admit that he had always thought that Ji Nuan was just a pervert with great medical skills, but he didn't expect that her martial arts skills were also so powerful. No wonder she dared to bring her three brothers who had no martial arts background to the Man-Eating Valley.
Mo Cong came back to his senses and asked, "Miss Ji, did you kill them all?"
Ji Nuan dropped the sword in his hand and said innocently, "No, I just made them unable to move. But now that they have fallen from such a high place, I don't know whether they are dead or alive."
She added, "You'd better forget about that and take care of the injury on your back."
Jun Xianlan noticed Mo Cong's injuries the moment he came up. Now that the assassin had been dealt with, he quickly asked Ji Nuan, "Miss Ji, Mo Cong still needs your help."
Ji Nuan nodded, "No problem."
