The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cang Yue Kingdom - Quezhou - Heavenly Visitor

While Ye Ling and Jiu You were chatting, Su Su woke up. She looked around the room in confusion: "Sister Ling, where is this?"

"Quezhou Tianlai Ke, you have been sleeping in a daze for several days. How are you today? Do you feel better?" Ye Ling said without changing his expression.

"I have a slight headache, but otherwise... I don't feel any discomfort. I'm also... a little hungry." Su Su touched his stomach.

"Lunch will be here soon. Jiuyou, go tell the boss that we will take all three rooms from now on," said Ye Ling.

"Okay," a voice responded from the door of Jiuyou.

The boss prepared a table of food. Several individual guests had checked into their inn over the past two days, and all of them had their meals in the lobby on the first floor.

"I'll eat first." Su Su could see that he was really hungry.

Ye Ling cursed Meng Meng in his heart: "You unreliable fellow! Didn't you say you'd be fine after waking up? It's only been a few days, and look how hungry my sister-in-law is! If she gets sick from hunger later, how am I going to explain this to my senior brother?"

Mengmeng felt aggrieved: "Master, this is just a small bug. Mengmeng is working hard to fix it!"

Ye Ling disagreed: Do you mean to use my sister-in-law as an experiment?

"Hey! It's time for dinner." Yue Chi came in from the door.

"Brother Yue" Su Su stood up and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Brother Yue?" Ye Ling was confused.

"Miss" Yue Chi greeted Su Su first, and then looked at Ye Ling: "Envoy Ye, this is your fault. We just met last night!"

"It was pitch dark last night, how could I see clearly? Please sit down! Waiter, please bring another set of bowls and chopsticks." Ye Ling was speaking the truth. She really didn't see the other person's appearance clearly last night. When she saw him today, he was a handsome guy again, the kind of handsome guy similar to the Uyghur.

Yue Chi sat down without hesitation and said, "I asked Cai Yang this morning, and he said you lived here, so I came to see you. We only met briefly last night and didn't have time to say a word."

"Judging from your appearance, Envoy Yue is not from Cangyue, right?" Ye Ling asked curiously.

"Brother Yue is from a minority ethnic group in Xidu! That's why he doesn't look like us Cangyue people. His surname is Qiushan, and he changed it to Yue after he came to Langya Pavilion," Su Su answered quickly.

"I see." Ye Ling knew that most people who changed their surnames had their own secrets, so he didn't ask any more questions. "Senior brother said Xidu is a good place. I've always wanted to go there. I heard the scenery there is beautiful and there are a lot of delicious foods."

"Haha, if you have a chance, you must go and see it." The Yuechi people were cheerful and talkative. "If the time comes, I can explain it to you. The pace of life in Xidu is not as hectic as Cangyue's. Most people in our area make a living by herding. There are endless grasslands, crystal clear rivers, and cattle and sheep everywhere in the mountains. It is almost spring all year round, and most importantly, there is almost no winter."

"Wow! I want to go there right now because of what you said," Ye Ling said.

"Sister Ling, didn't Brother Mo say that we can go there to play once in the next six months?" Su Su said.

"What?" Yue Chi was furious when he heard this. "Of the three Sishi, you two left, leaving me alone? That's so unfair, isn't it? I'm from Xidu after all, so I should be included when we return to our hometown, right?"

"This is not up to me to decide. Anyway, my senior brother has already agreed. I can hand over the matter to Cai Yang. What about you?" Ye Ling listened to everything Feng Qingyang said last night.

"That's right, you have Cai Yang. He does have the ability to help manage Renzitang, and he also has a family in Langya Pavilion, so it's more suitable for him to stay at home. For me... it's a bit difficult," Yue Chi sighed.

"Brother Mo also has Chen Fei and Chen Qianshi. This time when we go to Nanlai, he will take care of all the affairs of Tianzitang," said Su Su.

"My three Thousand Envoys are basically new, and none of them are reliable. It's so difficult!" Yue Chi complained: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Ye Sishi, you are much more beautiful than I imagined, a great beauty who is both civil and military."

"Really?" Ye Ling covered her face with her hands, feeling a little embarrassed. "Thank you for the compliment, Envoy Yue. You're not bad looking either."

"Haha...thank you for the compliment, Envoy Ye. What are you going to do after dinner? How about going out for a walk together? I'll accompany you to Chunfeng Ferry tonight. Cai Yang said he'd vomit if he went again."

"He's too weak, isn't he? A grown man, but he's so defenseless."

"He is just too handsome and can't stand the sight of beautiful women."

The few of them ate and chatted. Yue Chi was a very interesting person. He could always find different topics to talk about. Wherever he was, the atmosphere would never be dull. He was also very attentive to Ye Ling and flattered her in various ways, which made Ye Ling very happy.

This made Jiuyou, who was not very communicative, very anxious, and he immediately classified this guy who suddenly appeared as a love rival.

After dinner, Ye Ling did not go out until the evening, when she brought Jiuyou and Su Su back into the space.

Meng Meng was puzzled: "Master, you and Yue Chi can go to Chunfeng Ferry and let Jiuyou and Susu stay in the inn. Why did you put Susu to sleep?"

"Nothing is foolproof in this world. For me, the best solution is to put them in the space and keep them with me. I don't want to regret it. We have the conditions, so why should we make trouble for ourselves? When Su Su wakes up early tomorrow, he will just feel like he had a good sleep," Ye Ling explained.

"All right!"

"Senior Sister, then you'd better be careful. That...Yue Chi looks like a playboy. Don't pay too much attention to him." Jiuyou rarely expressed his inner displeasure.

Ye Ling suppressed a laugh: "He's on the same level as me, and we'll be colleagues in the future. It's hard to refuse, right? You should get some rest. I'm leaving now."

"But..." Jiuyou didn't finish his words before Ye Ling disappeared.

Meng Meng gloated: "It's over, it's over. The master might fall in love with someone else. Envoy Yue Si also has the same aesthetic point. Jiuyou, do you have a sense of crisis?"

Jiuyou glared at Mengmeng, turned around and went into his room, lying on the bed sulking. After a while, he got up and went out to the utility room to continue carving his small objects.

Ye Ling appeared in men's clothing, and Yue Chi nodded in praise: "Oh! Next to you, I am much inferior!"

"I think so too. Since we are not destined to be together in this life, I want to be a man in my next life. I want to show all men what responsibility, tolerance, resistance, feelings and security are. I will never let my woman suffer any grievances," Ye Ling said as she walked.

"Hahaha, well said." Yue Chi smiled and clapped his hands, with a hint of imperceptible appreciation in his eyes.

Ye Ling raised his head slightly, with a confident arc at the corner of his mouth.

The two walked side by side, attracting the attention of passers-by.

Yue Chi looked at Ye Ling beside him, and his heart couldn't help but move. He had never seen such a special woman. She looked heroic in men's clothes and had a unique charm.

"Ye Ling, do you know? You are really attractive," Yue Chi couldn't help but say softly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling paused and turned to look at Yue Chi with a look of surprise in his eyes.

Yue Chi thought Ye Ling was angry and quickly explained: "Don't mind me, I just want to express my feelings, I don't mean anything else."

"Am I such a stingy person?" Ye Ling said with a smile.

Yue Chi also smiled: "However, if you really become a man in your next life, I believe there will be many women who fall in love with you."

"That's all necessary." The two continued to walk forward. Ye Ling then remembered to ask about what happened last night: "Did you catch Zhao Lei?"

"Of course, he also kept shouting that he would go to the old Pavilion Master to complain about us, saying that he was promoted by the old Pavilion Master."

"What a piece of trash! That day in Yuncheng, he was still making sarcastic remarks about me." Ye Ling got angry just thinking about it.

Yue Chi smiled slightly: "So you said you didn't want to be an official anymore in a fit of anger? You won't live in the branch hall when you come here?"

"I have money, so I stay at the inn myself to avoid being squeezed out. I don't really want to be a driver..."

"That won't do! Cai Yang, Zhuang Yi, and Bi Cheng all respect you as the Chief Envoy, and you were personally appointed by the old Pavilion Master and the Sect Master. Don't be angry!"

"How can I be so virtuous?"

"What are you really capable of? A nineteen-year-old girl making it onto the Langya List—that alone is a huge deal. Who in Langya Pavilion wouldn't be convinced? Only a traitor like Zhao Lei would try to sow discord. Don't fall for it!"

"But apart from my martial arts skills, I don't know anything else!"

"Take it easy! Cai Yang will help you, and your senior brother and I will also help. As for you, if you like to play, just play happily and do things while playing. Just look at the Five Ghosts and you will know, right?" Yue Chi said.

"That's true, but... let's talk about it later! Now we're here..." Ye Ling looked up at Chunfeng Ferry and said, "Tell me, are most of the girls here forced?"

"Needless to say? Many poor families have sold their daughters, alas~"

"Envoy Yue, do you have a family?"

"No, I'm alone and have no worries," Yue Chi said. "But if I have a daughter in the future, I will definitely hold her in my hands. Anyone who dares to bully her will be bullied to death."

"Sir, you are here again," a girl with good eyesight recognized Ye Ling.

Ye Ling and Yue Chi looked at each other and slowly walked into the building. The place was still vulgar.

Yue Chi threw a silver ingot: "Private room."

"Please come this way, gentlemen," the girl led the way gracefully.

Ye Ling said as he walked, "How can I let you pay?"

"I am a man"

"Who isn't?" Ye Ling joked.

"Yes, yes, yes," Yue Chi smiled.

After sitting down in the private room, Ye Ling asked, "Where is Miss Rou'er? I need her to serve me."

"This...Rou'er has guests tonight, my slave..."

"I want her," Ye Ling interrupted the woman because she noticed that the girl was a little evasive in her gaze.

"Rou'er has really been called away by other guests." The woman lowered her head and pinched her handkerchief: "Why don't you change someone else, and I will arrange another girl for you."

"Forget it." Ye Ling suddenly stood up: "Then let's go."

"Hey, don't go, sir!" The woman hurriedly stopped them: "Since Rou'er is not here, I will accompany you two personally."

"No need," Ye Ling said coldly.

"Hey~" A middle-aged woman with a slender waist walked in: "What's wrong with you two gentlemen? You look unhappy!"

"Mom," the woman whispered, "This young man came last night. He only wanted Rou'er to serve him, otherwise he would leave."

The madam was obviously trying to cover up something: "Sir! Rou'er already has a customer. You know, at a time like this, we can't go in and interrupt the customer's interest, right? Let me get you a better one."

"Aren't my words clear enough?" Ye Ling said coldly.
