Chapter 122: Resentful eyes

It was another sunny day. Although it was late autumn, the morning sun shining through the window lattice was particularly warm and comfortable. Qiaoer took the hot water handed in by the waiter outside the door, served Yingluo and got up to dress up.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Yingluo looked at Qiaoer with dark circles in the bronze mirror, chuckled, and said, "Jiaoer, did you not sleep well last night?"

At this time, Qiaoer's mind was obviously still confused. He paused a little when he heard Yingluo's question, scratched his head awkwardly, and smiled: "Girl, Qiaoer had a nightmare all night, and later she didn't dare to sleep after waking up, so she kept listening to something strange outside the door."

Yingluo smiled slightly, "Have you heard any movement?"

Qiaoer shook her head, "There is nothing special except the night owls outside screaming."

Yingluo looked at the little round face that was wrinkled by the rosy, shook her head helplessly and smiled.

The two were talking and laughing in the room, but they heard a soft knock on the door outside the door. Qiaoer frowned and asked loudly, "Who?"

I could only hear the little brother smiling outside the door, "Two girls, I'll report you a letter. Some people downstairs said they came to find the two girls intently!"

When Qiaoer heard this, her face turned pale and her muscles became a little tense. She turned her head stiffly and looked at Yingluo with a slight trembling voice, "Girl, it wasn't that the group of people from last night who came to the door?"

Yingluo smiled, she got up and put her hand gently on Qiaoer's shoulder, comforting her, "Don't be nervous, it's not them! Qiaoer, go and open the door."

Qiaoer hesitated at the door for a moment, and finally, as if he had to muster up his courage, he creaked the door and opened a crack ten fingers wide. He looked at the person outside the door with great vigilance, "Who is looking for us?"

The waiter looked at Qiaoer's nervous look in the crack of the door, and was a little confused. He looked at the people around him in embarrassment, and then smiled and said, "Girl, this guest official is looking for you." As he spoke, he winked at Qiaoer.

Before Qiaoer could poke his head out and see it, a gray figure flashed in front of her. Qiaoer was startled and was about to see who this person was when a deep and low voice sounded, "The two girls were frightened last night. Qi Feng specially came to escort Miss Zhen back to his house this morning."

Qiaoer was stunned. He said it had been a long time since she was frightened and scared. When she heard that it was the person from the Zhao Palace, she couldn't help but feel happy. She turned around and said to Yingluo with a crisp voice, "Miss, it's someone sent by Prince Zhao."

Half of Yingluo's cheeks were bathed in the golden morning light, with the corners of her lips slightly raised, her smile soft and bright, perfectly without any flaws. She gently placed the comb in her hand on the dressing table, her eyes moved slightly, but her tone said lightly: "Well, then I'll be Lord Qi. Please wait downstairs for a while. We, the master and servant, will go and meet you after we are cleaned up."

Qi Feng thought about it and knew that it was normal for this woman to love beauty and dress up, so she could understand what Yingluo said. He smiled and bowed, "Miss Zhen, Qi Feng will go to the lobby downstairs to wait for the two of you." After that, he left the waiter behind him with a stunned look on his face, lifted the corner of his robe and turned downstairs.

The waiter looked at the man's tall back in the blink of an eye and moved to the guest table downstairs to sit down. He couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded, with speed... He is really good at it!

Qiaoer closed the door and returned to Yingluo with light steps, with a clear expression of relaxation and pleasure. "Girl, now, someone is escorting us, and I am no longer afraid of those bad people coming to cause trouble for us!"

Yingluo smiled gently and said, "Okay, please pack up your things, let's go down."

"Yes! Girl!" Qiao'er replied with a smile on her eyebrows.

This Yunlai Inn is not considered luxurious in Kyoto, but because Qin Hai has a talent for business, he has managed the inn in the past few years, so there are many guests coming in and out during the day.

Yingluo slowly walked down the steps one by one, her eyes as bright as stars, her skin as dazzling as the first snow, and her faint smile seemed to emit a kind of light. Her every move was enough to make people fascinated, but the clear and coldness in her eyes made people dare not get close to her.

The people coming and going in the lobby just looked at the stairs from a distance. It was this glance that the air seemed to have frozen for a moment. Qi Feng rose up and took two steps forward to meet her. He coughed lightly, and his extremely angry eyes swept coldly around the people who were still in a trance around. Those timid and timid expressions suddenly became weakened by the sharp eyes, and hurriedly turned away from the eyes staring at the steps.

However, among these surprised, stunning or coveting eyes, there was a look that was a bit special. The man was hunched over and wrapped in a thick scarf on his head. He could not see clearly at all. He could only see with his thin and low figure. He seemed to be a woman. Compared with her inconspicuous outfit, his resentful eyes seemed to have seen a ghost. From the initial confusion, he turned into a raging fire. The face under the scarf was hideous like a crazy beast, and he wanted to bite the woman in front of him. However, when she saw the person who was as strong as a guard, she regained her mind. She hurriedly lowered her head, squeezed into the crowd, and pulled the scarf in front of her again, covering it even more airtight.

Although Qi Feng looked dark and tall, he looked closely and looked very handsome and heroic. Yingluo walked down the steps, nodded slightly to him with a smile on her lips, "Mr. Qi, we can set off."

Qi Feng nodded and bowed calmly, "Miss Zhen, please come here." After saying that, he leaned over and made a gesture of invitation.

Yingluo smiled, her smile was as clean and friendly as the snow in the early winter. She had heard Xiao Tianming talk about the origin of Qi Feng. There were so many kindnesses from martial people. Because she was favored by Xiao Tianming, who was still a prince at the time, she had been loyal and dedicated to the assistance of King Zhao for so many years. Yingluo sighed slightly in her heart. It was a pity that Qi Feng's martial arts cultivation was like an eagle that was supposed to soar in the sky. Now, her eyes were covered and her anklets were tied. She could only stay in this place next to the hunter. After a long time, she had no wildness and lost her blood. She was lost in the world. It was really a pity.

Just as he was about to go out, the shopkeeper Qin ran over and said with a little breath: "Miss, stay!"
