Chapter 55: A Four-Cornered Romance? Zhou Wubing's Banquet
"Qing Ge, this kid is actually getting so close to Lan Shuang Er, he's asking for death?"
"Don't be impulsive, do you know who he is? He's Zhuo Yifan, the one who injured Wu Shao a few days ago. It's said that he has innate divine power and is highly valued by Lanyan. And he even deceived a group of villagers into thinking he's an envoy from the Blood God Sect."
"Haha? Blood God Envoy? Innate Divine Power? How is this possible? Was Wu Shao really defeated by this small frame?"
The two attendants behind Zhou Qing were whispering and discussing in a low voice, while at this time, Zhou Qing's gaze was also straight and shot over.
Zhuo Yifan, Yue Shi and Zhou Qing exchanged gazes from afar, their intersecting eyes seeming to spark with electricity.
"Niezhen, you're really a jinx, this man is quite good, and he's so devoted to you..."
Lan Shuang'er pouted and said discontentedly: "I wouldn't be interested in him at all, I am a fan of Fang Ge..."
Zhuo Yi looked at Zhou Qing from afar, while Zhou Qing was also quietly staring at the three of them. He couldn't help but grit his teeth and clench his fists tightly, but soon relaxed and forced out a smile that seemed somewhat unnatural as he walked over.
The two attendants beside him followed behind with their heads bowed, not daring to speak rashly.
"Are you two still not resting? It's late at night and it's cold outside." Zhou Qing said with a gentle smile.
"Mind your own business, I and my brother are having a great time drinking!" Blue twin's sparkling eyes looked at Zhuo Yifan, tightly hugging his arm and sticking out her tongue at Zhou Qing.
"Ah! Trouble water!" The plump chest was stuck to his arm, and Zuo Yifan's face suddenly showed a hint of embarrassment. He thought to himself with a bit of amusement: "This girl has completely taken me as her shield?"
"Zhou Qing, I won't marry anyone else but Yan Feng in the future, don't bother me again."
Pfft!
Before Zhuo Yifan could speak, Lan Shuang'er's explosive sentence directly made Yue Shi spit out the wine in his mouth. He couldn't help but laugh and was quite pleased to see the three of them. In his heart, he muttered: Could it be that this is the legendary love triangle?
"This girl is too unrestrained, doesn't she know the temptation those two lumps give to men?" Zhuo Yifan's face was flushed red, and fine cold sweat seeped out of his forehead. Although he was wearing a tiger skin shirt, both arms were bare, and they touched Lan Shuang'er's snowy peaks without any interval, making any normal man have all sorts of fantasies.
At this moment, Zhuo Yifan's evil fire was raging, and every breath could feel the scorching temperature. Helpless, he could only say softly: "Nizi, can you loosen up a bit..."
"Ah……” Lan Shuang'er suddenly realized that she had overreacted, her face turned red like an apple, and she quickly withdrew the tender touch from Zhuo Yifan's arm. Her hands tightly grasped his arm, extremely tense.
"Hmm..." Although Zhuo Yifan didn't mind continuing like this, after all, Shuang Er was Lao Ye's granddaughter and the one who had saved his life. How could he think of such a despicable thing? Thinking of this, his lustful thoughts were extinguished, and he looked at Zhou Qing with a bright smile.
Anyone with eyes can see the jealous fire in Zhou Qing's eyes, that resentful and venomous expression, as if she wants to swallow Zhuo Yifan whole.
"Hey Yifan, are you getting used to life in the village these two days?" But what made Zuo Yifan and Leishi a little surprised was that Zhou Qing's voice sounded very normal, without any unpleasant feeling, which also made Zuo Yifan become more vigilant.
He distinctly felt a ring on his chest jump lightly once.
"Alright, it's fine. Except for the lack of meat to eat, everything else is pretty good. Let's not beat around the bush, say it, what are you doing here so late at night? You're not really bored enough to be seeking warmth, are you?" Le Shi helped Zhuo Yifan speak up, bluntly saying: "Either hurry up and get to the point, or I'll directly send you packing."
"Haha, Leishi brother is joking. Wu Shao is also one of the pursuers of Shuang'er, last time because of some small misunderstandings and the two had a fight, but please don't mind." Zhou Qing's expression remained unchanged, as if he could withstand even the greatest humiliation and anger, only he didn't know that the more gentle and courteous he appeared, the greater others' suspicions about him became.
"What? Is Zhou Wubing also a pursuer?"
Lei Shi was taken aback, not expecting this "country girl" to have such a complicated relationship, and it turned out to be a quadrangle love affair? He laughed: "Zhou Qing, aren't you crazy? Your brother has his eyes on that woman and you're also trying to steal her?"
Isn't that too straightforward? Zhou Qing's face twitched, and he suppressed his anger: "Wu Shao deeply apologizes for the disrespect last time. I wonder if Brother Yi Fan can grant us the honor of having a meal together?"
Ah ha
"There's meat to eat!" Leishi was overjoyed instantly.
Ke Zhouqing smiled apologetically and said, "I'm really sorry, this time Wu Shao only invited Brother Fan to dinner, so Leishi Ge will have to wait until next time."
"Is it just me being invited?" Zhuo Yifan sneered inwardly, knowing that they were probably plotting something again. An intelligent person would understand at once that this banquet was definitely a trap.
"Ah, Wu Shao is genuinely sincere in his apology. If Brother Yi doesn't give him face, I'll be the one who's not human," Zhou Qing said with a smile.
"Go now?"
"Go now." Zhou Qing nodded with a smile.
"Zhou Qing, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You'd better not play any tricks." Lan Shuang'er's worried expression changed slightly as she looked at Zhuo Yifan and whispered, "Yifan ge, be careful of deceit..."
"Alright, since there's meat to eat, I'll go then." Zhuo Yifan was very clear in his mind that this was a conspiracy, but he still agreed. Even if he refused again and again, it wouldn't change Zhou Wubing's hatred towards him. Since that was the case, he might as well just go and see what kind of conspiracy Zhou Wubing had planned.
"You two go back first." Zhuo Yifan gave them a signal with his eyes, meaning that he could handle it himself. Now that he had the ring on him, he was naturally not afraid of Zhou Wubing's mental attack.
"Just in time for a midnight snack, lead the way." He waved his hand and said.
"Please, this way." Zhou Qing's soft smile spread to the corners of her lips, but in her heart she was thinking: You dare to come? Without Lan Ran and your good brother by your side, soon I'll make you kneel on the ground and kowtow to me, become a slave dog for my Zhou family!
With that thought in mind, the smile on his face grew even brighter as he turned around and led the way forward. In his opinion, without Blue Dye and Music Stone by his side, Zhuo Yifan was nothing but a bit stronger physically. Moreover, he had also heard that Blue Dye personally taught Soul Meditation, yet Zhuo Yifan hadn't made any progress at all, which only served to make him even more disdainful.
At the same level, a soul cultivator's status is far more noble than that of a body cultivator.
Before long, he followed Zhou Qing to the foot of a magnificent wine tower in the middle of Shura Village. This wine tower was one of the properties of the Zhou family and unlike other buildings that were generally built on dwarf trees, it looked majestic and resplendent with gold and jade.
"Come this way, Brother Yi Fan."
Zhou Qing carefully watched Zhuo Yifan, making a please gesture, and waited for Zhuo Yifan to enter the wine house. The door slammed shut with a "bang" sound. What came face-to-face was a strong killing intent!
