Shui Sheng listened carefully and was stunned to find that their topic was Ding Dian and others.
what happened?
Didn't Sister Rong'er and the others not go with them? How come he knows the whole story, including so many details, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes?
I inquired out of curiosity and found out the truth.
Shui Sheng was stunned for a moment.
Then, she suddenly understood something, her pretty face turned red, and she hurried back to her room.
Li Yu looked at her graceful back as she walked away, and his heart couldn't help but feel hot. He casually grabbed Tie Xinlan who had just passed by, pulled her into his arms, and touched her all over.
Then, amid the girl's cries, Li Yu picked her up and walked into the room.
……
Another three days.
That day, after strolling through the streets and alleys of Jingzhou, the crowd had just returned to the backyard of the Water Palace when suddenly a man's loud shouting came from the front yard.
"Cousin! Cousin!"
"It's my cousin, my cousin is back!" Shui Sheng recognized the voice, looked surprised, and ran out in a hurry.
The women all looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu smiled indifferently and followed first.
When they arrived at the front hall, they saw Shui Sheng holding hands with a handsome man in a yellow shirt. When they looked at each other, their eyes were full of affection.
The two of them were very excited, their faces filled with the joy of surviving seven disasters and meeting each other after a long separation. If they had not taken into account the distinction between men and women, they would probably have hugged each other and expressed their longing for each other at this moment.
However, before the two could say a few more words, an old but powerful voice rang out: "Oh, niece Shui, I'm so glad you're back safely. Uncle Hua has been worried to death for the past month!"
When Shui Sheng heard the voice, her expression immediately turned cold. She let go of Wang Xiaofeng and looked in the direction of the voice.
An old man with gray hair and beard and a gaunt face and a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance and a majestic air walked in together.
Wang Xiaofeng walked up to the old man and greeted him, "Uncle Hua."
Then he turned to Shui Sheng and introduced the middle-aged man to her: "Cousin, this is Senior Shangguan Yun, the head of Xiangzhou Zhongxin Hall."
"Senior Shangguan is a man of great righteousness, always willing to help others in need. After hearing about your situation, he condescended to come with me to Jingzhou to offer his assistance."
"Halfway through, I received a message from you saying you had returned. Senior Shangguan had originally wanted to go back the same way, but I begged him repeatedly and finally invited him to come."
"Cousin, you should thank Senior Shangguan for his kindness."
Upon hearing this, Shui Sheng finally shifted her gaze away from Hua Tiegan and looked at Shangguan Yun.
Although it was their first meeting, if what Wang Xiaofeng said was true, then this Senior Shangguan was truly an admirable hero and a great man, and he came here for her, so he must not be neglected.
Therefore, although Shui Sheng hated Hua Tiegan so much and wanted to settle accounts with him immediately, she had to control her temper and bowed to Shangguan Yun: "Senior, you are so kind. Shui Sheng thanks you for your kindness."
Shangguan Yun chuckled and waved his hand, saying, "I didn't put in any effort, so I don't deserve Miss Shui's gift. I feel ashamed and unworthy of it."
"Senior Shangguan, you are too polite. Please wait for a moment. Once I have dealt with the trivial matters, I will definitely entertain you well."
Shui Sheng couldn't wait to say something, and then looked at Hua Tiegan, her beautiful eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
Hua Tiegan was startled by the look, but he took the initiative and said, "Niece Shui, where are my eldest brother and my third and fourth brothers? Why can't I see them? Could it be... could it be that they really... really... died in this tragedy?"
By the end of his speech, he was choking with sobs, his expression was sad, and tears were falling from his cloudy old eyes, as if he was extremely sad and grief-stricken.
Anyone who saw this would probably think he was truly mourning for his sworn brother's misfortune.
However, such a contrived scene made Shui Sheng feel indescribably disgusted.
She scolded him coldly: "Hua Tiegan! Stop pretending and pretending. If you hadn't been so cowardly and abandoned your brothers and fled, how could my father and two uncles... how could they..."
Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of the tragic death of the three people at that time. I was overwhelmed with sorrow and tears welled up in my eyes.
Hua Tiegan was stunned when he heard this, and then he shouted as if he had suffered a great injustice: "Niece Shui, you...what are you talking about? When have I ever done anything worse than pigs and dogs?"
"Ever since we became sworn brothers, Hua and my three brothers have supported each other and have a close friendship. We've fought together for justice and have a good reputation in Jingzhou. But I don't know why... why did you, niece Shui, mistake Uncle Hua for such a villain?"
At this point, seeing Shui Sheng's dark face, Hua Tiegan seemed to suddenly remember something, and his face showed a look of sudden realization:
"Ah, yes. Earlier, I was fighting with one of the Blood Knife thief's accomplices and ended up going somewhere else. The evil thief must have seen this and deliberately slandered me to confuse our sworn brothers."
"Niece Shui was acupunctured and fell to the ground, but she couldn't see the situation. Could it be that she believed the thieves' slander?"
"Uncle Hua really is... yes... oh... it really hurts!"
Shui Sheng was almost furious when she heard Hua Tiegan's clever words and his distortion of right and wrong.
If it weren't for this old guy seeing the bad situation and abandoning his brothers to flee, the deadlock wouldn't have been broken so quickly. Even if "Falling Flowers and Flowing Water" was defeated, it could still hold out until Li Yu arrived.
It can be said that Hua Tiegan bears half the responsibility for the deaths of Shui Dai and the other two!
Now, Hua Tiegan was lying in front of her with his eyes open. How could she tolerate this?
Shui Sheng couldn't argue with him, but she could beat him!
A great master's aura suddenly burst out and rushed straight towards Hua Tiegan.
Hua Tiegan's face changed drastically and he looked at Shui Sheng in disbelief.
Didn't this woman just reach Xiantian? How come after just one month of not seeing her, she already became a Grandmaster?
Without time to think about it, Hua Tiegan's mind turned quickly, and he dodged and hid behind Wang Xiaofeng.
At this time, Wang Xiaofeng was also stunned, his face full of surprise. He suddenly felt that the cousin in front of him had become extremely unfamiliar, which made him a little scared, a little inferior, a little jealous, and even a little angry.
Seeing Shui Sheng's palm coming towards him, Wang Xiaofeng stepped forward to block it without hesitation, forcing Shui Sheng to stop.
Shui Sheng looked at Wang Xiaofeng and asked in confusion, "Cousin, why are you stopping me?"
Wang Xiaofeng frowned slightly and asked, "Cousin, why are you so impulsive? If there's anything you want to talk about, why don't you just talk about it? Why do you have to resort to violence?"
"Uncle Hua is a famous hero in Jingzhou. Everyone knows his chivalrous name. You must have some misunderstanding about him."
Shui Sheng's heart darkened when she saw Wang Xiaofeng's trust in Hua Tiegan. She said anxiously, "Cousin, you'd rather trust him than me? He...he's the one who indirectly killed my father and my two uncles!"
However, Wang Xiaofeng didn't believe it at all. Just as he was about to continue to analyze it, Hua Tiegan appeared halfway from behind him.
Chapter 149: The BBQ Master's Divine Assist, the Suspicious Wang Xiaofeng
Hua Tiegan glanced at Shui Sheng's stunningly beautiful face, then swept his eyes over the beauties behind Li Yu and smiled slightly.
Then, he bowed to Li Yu and said, "Hua Tiegan greets Young Hero Li. A month ago, in the Snow Mountain, I had the honor of witnessing your heroic presence and was filled with admiration. It is truly my great honor to meet you again today."
Li Yu said calmly, "I've heard of the name 'Four Wonders of the South' before."
"It's just a small reputation, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning~na."
Hua Tiegan smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this, then looked at Shui Sheng again and sighed helplessly: "Niece Shui has a misunderstanding about Hua."
"Well, it's my fault too. Among the four of us brothers, only Hua made it back alive. No wonder she's resentful towards me."⑷
"My three sworn brothers all died tragically. I should have gone with them to preserve our brotherhood."
"But I was always worried about my niece Shui, wondering if she had escaped from the clutches of the evildoer. I was afraid she would be humiliated by the wicked man, so I had to keep her useful."4
"Fortunately, my niece Shui is blessed by fate. She was fortunate enough to be rescued by the young hero. This is truly a blessing for her."
"Since then, young man, you have gone through so much trouble to bring my niece Shui back from a long distance. You should accept my respect once again." Wu
Hua Tiegan saluted Li Yu again and continued, "Niece Shui is as beautiful as a fairy. If it weren't for the young hero's protection, I don't know how many hardships she would have encountered along the way."
"Not only that, the young hero also taught my niece Shui an unparalleled magical skill to protect her. From now on, my niece Shui won't have to worry about those villains anymore."
"Young man, you and niece Shui have only just met, yet you are so kind and righteous. Such chivalrous deeds make me, Hua, feel inferior."
After saying this, Hua Tiegan bowed to Li Yu again, as if he felt that words could not express his gratitude.
Seeing this, the servants of the Water Palace all secretly admired Hua Tiegan for his polite behavior, broad mind, and care for the younger generation, and he was worthy of the title of a hero.
Although Shui Sheng and the other girls knew that Hua Tiegan was not a good person, they just thought he was acting and did not think much about it.
Only a few people more or less saw through the trick.
Shangguan Yunmo stood aside, saying nothing.
Huang Rong's pair of clear and bright eyes rolled around, with a sly smile on the corner of her mouth.
Zhao Min put her hands behind her back and looked at Hua Tiegan indifferently with disdain, as if she was watching a monkey show.
Ren Yingying stood beside Li Yu gracefully and glanced at Wang Xiaofeng.
Li Yu looked at Hua Tiegan meaningfully, thinking, "As expected, old ginger is still spicy. This old guy is very clever. He knows how to please me. And he flatters me in the right way, making him a good matchmaker."
"I didn't expect this old guy to be so versatile."
"You thought he was a barbecue master, but he's actually an award-winning actor. You thought his hidden identity was just an award-winning actor, but he's actually a sharp-eyed matchmaker."
"Interesting! Really interesting!"
"Maybe I should change my plan. I don't have to do anything, not even hint, this old guy does it for me."
"Not bad, very good! As long as he doesn't fight with others, this old guy is still a great teammate."
Thinking of this, Li Yu glanced at Wang Xiaofeng seemingly inadvertently.
Sure enough, at this moment Wang Xiaofeng's face was ashen and extremely ugly.
It turned out that after receiving the news from Shui Sheng and learning that she had returned safely, Hua Tiegan had been worried that his cowardice would be exposed by Shui Sheng and ruin his reputation.
Therefore, after thinking it over, Hua Tiegan decided to strike first.
On the way back, he started whispering in Wang Xiaofeng's ears. Often, these seemingly casual words were full of hints, which always triggered Wang Xiaofeng's imagination.
such as--
Li Yu saved Shui Sheng because he saw that she was beautiful and coveted her beauty.
On the long journey home, the two of them spent every day together. Li Yu saved Shui Sheng's life, and he was talented, handsome, and had great martial arts skills. Shui Sheng must have fallen in love with someone else.
Maybe Shui Sheng even slept with Li Yu and put a big cheating hat on you, Wang Xiaofeng.
You, Wang Xiaofeng, are a big loser and a sucker. You have no future and you are just there to pick up broken shoes for others.
……
In short, he expressed these ideas through various euphemisms, slandering Shui Sheng in every possible way, causing Wang Xiaofeng to feel resentful towards Shui Sheng.
As long as Wang Xiaofeng has suspicions about Shui Sheng, he will no longer believe everything Shui Sheng says.
