Traveling through time and space to become the richest woman and falling in love with the young mast
Chapter 24 It’s too late to meet
This can't go on any longer. We must find Dou Yu's weakness as soon as possible so that we can defeat him in one fell swoop.
At this moment, Dou Yu's mouth curled up into an imperceptible smile.
He keenly sensed Qian Shuishui's fatigue and knew that victory was in sight.
Qian Shuishui decided to take a gamble. She pretended to chop Dou Yu's stomach to attract his attention.
Dou Yu fell into the trap and quickly took a defensive stance.
However, just when Dou Yu thought Qian Shuishui would continue to attack his abdomen, Qian Shuishui suddenly changed the direction of attack.
She slid past Dou Yu's side nimbly, and the big knife in her hand went up like lightning, and before the incense burned out, it was against Dou Yu's neck.
"good!"
"Wonderful!"
Thunderous applause suddenly broke out from the audience, and the audience stood up and cheered for Qian Shuishui's wonderful performance.
They were shocked by the powerful strength displayed by Qian Shuishui and were filled with admiration.
The cheers were as surging as the tide and deafening.
Qian Shuishui slowly retracted the sword, a hint of confidence and pride flashing in his eyes.
She turned slightly, clasped her fists and saluted towards Dou Yu, saying, "Thank you."
Dou Yu also returned the greeting, but his eyes revealed reluctance.
Although I am unwilling, the ending is already determined.
"Qian Shuishui of Zisenmen wins!" Dongfang Ti announced loudly.
This announcement echoed throughout the venue like thunder.
The crowd was excited, with cheers and applause coming one after another.
Only Peng Qinqin was jealous to the point of going crazy. She was number 89 and was fighting against number 90.
But No. 90 is also a member of her Flame Sect.
There must not be such a high call.
Qian Shuishui snorted coldly at Peng Qinqin, "Despicable villain."
Peng Qinqin wanted to refute something, but Qian Shuishui walked past her without paying any attention to her.
At this time, Dongfang Qingmo took advantage of this opportunity and quickly came to Yaer.
She looked at Yaer with concern and asked anxiously, "How is it? How much did you win?"
Yaer smiled and nodded, her voice trembling with excitement: "Master, we got five thousand taels! This competition was really exciting."
When Dongfang Qingmo heard these words, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and his tense nerves relaxed instantly. The corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a satisfied smile.
She originally thought that she could at most win two or three times the profit this time, but she never expected that it would actually increase tenfold.
This unexpected surprise made her feel extremely excited, as if she was about to float.
She patted Yaer's shoulder gently, her eyes full of appreciation: "Well done, this time it's all thanks to you."
If Yaer hadn't told her there was a gambling table, how could she have earned so much!
Ya'er felt a little embarrassed by the praise, and her cheeks flushed slightly, but she was mostly filled with joy.
Then, Dongfang Qingmo turned his head to look at Xueying and said softly, "Let's go, let's go back and continue watching."
In fact, she knew in her heart that if she continued to gamble, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction from her boss. After all, she had already made so much money this time, and it would be wise to quit while she was ahead.
So Dongfang Qingmo took Yaer and Xueying back to the inn.
The three of them talked and laughed along the way, their steps light and cheerful, as if there was wind under their feet.
To be honest, at this moment Dongfang Qingmo really wanted to get to know this person named Qian Shuishui.
She is very capable and has a strong aura, which really makes people feel good about her.
I just wonder if I will have the chance to meet her?
Just as Dongfang Qingmo was thinking to himself, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
Qian Shuishui was seen striding into the inn, followed closely by Qian Shuaishuai, who looked fawning and kept fanning Qian Shuishui, muttering, "Brother, you are so awesome!"
Qian Shuishui remained calm and responded casually, "It's just so-so."
Dongfang Qingmo's eyes lit up. She quickly stepped forward and bowed to Qian Shuishui with a smile on her face. "Mr. Qian, you shine so brightly today! I'm Dongfang Qingmo. Can we be friends?"
Agree, agree, agree quickly!
Yaer and Xueying were also excited when they saw Qian Shuishui.
Especially the buds.
Just now, Xueying had secretly told Yaer that Qian Shuishui was a girl.
Qian Shuishui stopped and looked Dongfang Qingmo up and down.
Although her face is covered with stubble, her sincerity can be seen through her eyes.
Her intuition told her that this person was an acquaintance, so she smiled generously and said, "My name is Qian Shuishui. Since you are interested in making friends, then we can be friends."
Qian Shuishui is the kind of person who doesn't care about details.
Dongfang Qingmo was secretly delighted and immediately invited him warmly, "If you don't mind, why don't you sit at the same table with me and drink? And watch the upcoming competition together?"
Why does she have a feeling that they met too late?
Qian Shuishui raised the corner of her mouth slightly and agreed without hesitation: "Okay!"
Originally they wanted to rent a room in the inn to rest.
Qian Shuaishuai looked confused and muttered to himself, what is going on?
With just these two simple sentences, the two of them became friends so casually?
He couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his memory. How could he remember that his sister wasn't like that?!
The three of them sat opposite each other and began to talk.
They talked about interesting stories in the martial arts world, their martial arts experiences, and occasionally commented on the fighters on the ring. The atmosphere was harmonious and lively.
Yaer and Xueying served them attentively, constantly adding water and food for them.
As time went by, Dongfang Qingmo felt more and more that Qian Shuishui was not only a martial arts expert, but also had a generous and straightforward personality, which was very much to her taste.
"Just now, I watched Brother Qian's competition, which was really exciting!" Dongfang Qingmo did not hide his admiration for Qian Shuishui.
She particularly admires it.
When Qian Shuishui heard this, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she responded modestly: "No, no, it was all luck."
"Hey, Brother Qian is really low-key." Dongfang Qingmo said with a smile.
At this moment, Qian Shuaishuai was concentrating on savoring the food when he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, Senior Brother, this shredded pork is really delicious. The texture is very unique, a bit like the roasted lamb legs at Zui Xiang Lou!"
"It's the roasted lamb leg from Zui Xiang Lou!"
The two of them looked at what Dongfang Qingmo was holding in his hand and their eyes widened.
Which good person goes out with the biggest roasted leg of lamb?
In fact, this is not a complete leg of lamb, but Dongfang Qingmo ordered people to cut the meat off the leg of lamb and put it in a lunch box so that it is convenient to carry and eat.
Qian Shuishui perked up immediately after hearing this. "Then I'd really like to try it. I didn't get to eat a single bite of the lamb leg I bought last time because you greedy guys snatched it all up."
Dongfang Qingmo smiled slightly, "Yes, there are plenty. If you want to eat, go to Zui Xiang Lou."
"It's easy for you to say that. I can't even squeeze into Zui Xiang Lou, let alone eat inside." Qian Shuaishuai said with a depressed face.
Every time he went to Zui Xiang Lou, he couldn't get a seat and could only watch others enjoy their food.
Luckily you can take it out, otherwise you wouldn't be able to taste it at all.
At this time, Qian Shuishui was the first to react and shouted in surprise: "Oh! Your last name is Dongfang, and Zui Xiang Lou is yours?!!"
Dongfang Qingmo smiled and nodded, indicating his agreement.
After hearing the news, Qian Shuaishuai was so excited that he stood up and took Dongfang Qingmo's hand and was about to walk out. "Let's go, let's go to Zui Xiang Lou now. I want to eat my fill!"
Hey, hey, hey, the competition isn't over yet!!
Xueying was quick to stop Qian Shuaishuai and said firmly, "Sorry, my son cannot come into contact with strangers."
"Bullshit!" Qian Shuaishuai immediately became dissatisfied and shouted loudly, "Brother Dongfang just shook hands with my brother, and you didn't stop him. Why can't I?!"
"It's okay, it's okay." Dongfang Qingmo quickly called Xueying back and said to Qian Shuaishuai with a smile.
Dongfang Qingmo was embarrassed. Although she didn't care much about it, it was like this in ancient times. Men and women were always required to keep their distance from each other.
It’s better to do as the Romans do.
Qian Shuishui also spoke hurriedly, calling out in a reproachful tone, "Junior brother, don't be so reckless."
At this time, a person from the Zisen Sect appeared on the stage below. Qian Shuishui immediately turned around and ordered, "Junior brother, go and see if there is anything you can help with."
In case of injury or something, I can lend a hand immediately.
Qian Shuaishuai looked reluctant, but still agreed. Before leaving, he grabbed a handful of shredded lamb legs and stuffed them into his mouth, then turned and left.
Qian Shuishui looked at his useless appearance and apologized to Dongfang Qingmo embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Dongfang..."
However, before she could finish her words, she was stopped by Dongfang Qingmo. She smiled gently and said, "Miss Qian, there is no need to be like this."
After thinking it over, she decided to say it directly.
Qian Shuishui's face turned pale instantly. She looked at Dongfang Qingmo in astonishment and stammered, "How did you know?"
Obviously, she didn't expect that her identity had been seen through.
But the other party had no ill intentions at all.
"Don't worry, I'm a woman too!" Dongfang Qingmo grinned with a sly smile.
Since you have decided to make friends with her, be honest with her to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Ah?!" Qian Shuishui looked carefully but didn't find any feminine features in Dongfang Qingmo. "Brother Dongfang, how did you do that?"
The voice doesn't sound like a woman at all.
Qian Shuishui was extremely curious.
"I took the medicine." Dongfang Qingmo said lightly.
"What medicine?" Qian Shuishui asked puzzledly.
"..." Qian Shuishui searched her mind for a moment, "Isn't that right? I don't remember there being any such medicine on the market."
Dongfang Qingmo smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes, "My Dongfang family has its own pharmacist."
In order to make travel more convenient, he chased people to refine it every day, and finally succeeded in developing a drug that can change the voice.
Qian Shuishui was filled with envy and sighed in her heart: "The Dongfang family really lives up to its reputation!"
She had always heard that the Dongfang family was powerful and prosperous, but now that she saw it with her own eyes, she truly realized how profound their foundation was.
She couldn't help but think of herself. Every time she went out, she had to be very careful, for fear that her identity would be discovered.
In order to conceal her identity as a woman, she deliberately lowered her voice when speaking.
This lasted for a long time, causing her throat to ache unbearably. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but touch her throat.
"How do you know I'm a woman?" Qian Shuishui asked curiously.
Dongfang Qingmo smiled slightly. She reached out and touched her Adam's apple, then gently tore off a fake Adam's apple and placed it on the table.
“That’s what it is,” she explained.
Qian Shuishui looked at the fake Adam's apple in confusion and asked, "What is this?"
Dongfang Qingmo patiently explained, "Every man has an Adam's apple, some big, some small. But you clearly don't have one, so I guessed you might be a woman."
Qian Shuishui touched his neck and suddenly realized: "So that's how it is..."
She had never noticed this detail before because this was the first time someone had pointed it out to her.
Qian Shuishui secretly admired Dongfang Qingmo's keen observation and delicate mind.
She scratched her head awkwardly and said with a smile, "Brother Dongfang is still smart."
Dongfang Qingmo smiled and waved his hand to show his modesty.
She said: "These are just some minor details. However, it is really admirable that Miss Qian can disguise herself as a man and participate in the competition."
Qian Shuishui laughed heartily and said, "Haha, I've loved martial arts since I was a child, and it's more convenient to move around dressed as a man."
Dongfang Qingmo nodded, deeply admiring Qian Shuishui's free and easy attitude.
The two had a great conversation until the last game when Peng Qinqin came on stage.
"This despicable villain." Qian Shuishui was indignant.
Still unhappy about what happened just now.
"I think so too. It's fake." Dongfang Qingmo agreed with her point of view.
It doesn't look like a good thing.
"Isn't it!" Qian Shuishui felt that she had finally found someone with the same ideals as her.
In the past, they all thought she was too serious.
Qian Shuishui also tried to be friends with her, but she just couldn't like her no matter what.
"Flame Sect, Pei Li."
Pei Li blushed to the extreme instantly when he was in close contact with Peng Qinqin. He only knew that Qinqin was participating in the martial arts competition today, and he never expected that he would be able to stand on the same stage with his favorite goddess.
“Peng Qinqin!”
Peng Qinqin couldn't help but roll her eyes. She really had no interest in the man in front of her.
Her eyes kept searching the crowd, but she could not find Huangfu Yi.
Peng Qinqin's expression gradually darkened, and she felt somewhat lost. She had clearly written to inform Huangfu Yi of today's competition, hoping he would come and watch.
Why didn't he show up?
Peng Qinqin was unwilling to give in.
At this moment, the sound of gong rang out and the competition officially began.
Pei Li was afraid of hurting Peng Qinqin, so he chose to surrender without hesitation.
"I, I abstain."
Qinqin was so delicate, how could she withstand his attack? It would be better to give up the chance of victory.
However, Peng Qinqin was furious. Pei Li's actions undoubtedly put her in an awkward position, as if her victory was not glorious.
You might even be accused of bribing your opponents.
"No, you must fight me."
"Qinqin, this..."
"Do it now!"
Pei Li had no choice but to pick up his sword and rush towards Peng Qinqin.
