Chapter 255

The Wu family must have had all sorts of different maids.

And there should also be many subordinates or bodyguards to assist them.

Moreover, the maids are always incredibly beautiful.

Presumably, the two beauties who were standing next to the boss were his maids.

Is the black-haired woman in front of me also a maid?

Holy crap... Boss is way too lucky...

"I am indeed someone close to Young Master Wu Liang, but I am not his subordinate."

"I've been observing you from the sidelines for a long time. Let's end this tracking game here."

"I don't think Young Master Wu Liang would want you to keep following him."

Yao Qing stood up and blocked Nan Qingshui and the others.

The energetic little devils seem to have a pretty good relationship with the young master.

"You told us not to follow Wu Liang, but aren't you following him yourself?"

"That's a classic double standard. If we can't do it, why can you?"

Nan Qingshui puffed out her cheeks and said with some dissatisfaction.

For some reason, she gets extremely angry whenever she sees this woman.

She was especially displeased after seeing her brother's infatuation with this woman.

My brother actually likes this type of woman... How awful...

"Hey, Qingshui, your tone is too harsh."

The Rat was puzzled as to why Nan Qingshui harbored such hostility towards the other party.

The other party was talking to them in a very natural way.

Why did Nan Qingshui's words carry such a strong sense of hostility?

They responded angrily, as if they were eager to start a fight with the other person.

The other party clearly had no intention of making enemies of them.

Isn't Nan Qingshui going a bit too far with what she said?

"My situation is different from yours. I am the young master's bodyguard, or you could say a witness."

Yao Qing smiled slightly when she saw that Nan Qingshui had no intention of leaving.

They did not show any dissatisfaction.

"Bodyguard? A woman with skinny arms and legs like you??"

Nan Qingshui burst out laughing upon hearing the word "bodyguard".

This wasn't her mocking the beautiful woman before her.

Instead, I simply felt speechless. Is the word "bodyguard" something that can be used so casually?

The fair-skinned, beautiful woman with long legs in front of me doesn't look like a bodyguard at all.

Her slender waist looked as if it could be broken with a single twist.

With such a frail figure, how could the other party be so confident in calling herself a bodyguard?

"I'm not making fun of you, but if you had given me a different reason, I could have accepted it..."

Whoosh! ~!

A bright silver blade traced a line that grazed Nan Qingshui's neck.

The sound of air being torn apart echoed through the alley, sharp and piercing.

The silver dagger easily pierced the wall behind them.

The entire blade was embedded more than halfway into the wall.

This demonstrates just how terrifying the speed and sharpness of these throwing knives are.

Nan Qingshui didn't even see the other person's movements clearly.

I felt a chilling wind pierce my neck.

Then came a sharp buzzing sound that passed by my ears.

Two or three strands of severed hair drifted down from the air and landed on the ground.

"Ah..."

Nan Qingshui touched her neck and stared blankly at the woman in front of her.

If the opponent's aim was slightly off-target.

Her neck would be pierced by that flying object in an instant.

"Holy crap..."

The Rat stared in disbelief at the short knife that had disappeared into the wall behind it.

Hey, you're kidding, right? That woman is terrifying.

Look! Look! That short knife is almost halfway embedded in the wall.

That must be related to the sharpness of the dagger.

But to be able to do this much is already terrifying.

"Now do you believe in my profession, Miss Nan Qingshui?"

Yao Qing shrugged and spread her hands.

Fortunately, he had borrowed a few throwing knives from Yao Shi beforehand.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to prove her identity to these people right now.

But this little girl is really interesting.

Could it be that this little girl has other feelings for Nan Zhu?

"..."

Nan Qingshui was too terrified to speak.

The chill that rushed straight to her made her legs tremble slightly.

What happened in less than a second.

It felt like an eternity to her.

This bone-chilling cold caused her body to go limp instantly.

The woman in front of me could not possibly be a bodyguard.

If I had to put it into words, the aura the other party had previously displayed was more like...

"Now, does this prove my identity?"

Yao Qing touched her nose and kicked at the pebbles at her feet.

Hmm, it seems he went a little overboard.

I just wanted to tease this child named Nan Qingshui.

But he seemed to have frightened the little girl.

But then again, why should an adult like him bother arguing with kids?

"You've frightened my sister, miss."

The voice that suddenly rang out behind Nan Qingshui attracted everyone's attention.

Suddenly, Nan Zhu, who had been standing there lost in thought, walked out.

He used one hand to block Nan Qingshui and protect her behind him.

His dark eyes were tinged with dissatisfaction, but even more so with hesitation and struggle.

"Brother? Big brother??"

Nan Qingshui clearly did not expect Nan Zhu to suddenly step forward under these circumstances.

My brother doesn't seem to like this beautiful woman in front of him very much.

I was completely absorbed in watching other people before.

But now, for his own sake...

"Even if it was just a joke you were playing on us, you really scared my sister."

"Throwing knives are very dangerous weapons, and I need you to apologize to Qingshui."

Nan Zhu hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.

Qingshui was almost injured by that flying weapon.

Even if this woman is very confident in her skills.

Nor should one casually engage in such dangerous actions.

In case, in case the other party makes a mistake, Qingshui will get hurt.

"Nan... Nan Zhu..."

"Elder brother..."

Neither the Rat nor Nan Qingshui expected Nan Zhu to be so serious.

Even more unexpectedly, Nan Zhu actually intended to make the other party apologize.

"Me? Apologize?"

Yao Qing was amused by Nan Zhu's words.

This kid actually wants him to apologize to Nan Qingshui?

It was clearly that little girl who provoked him first, yet he actually had to apologize to her?

Isn't this a bit unreasonable?

Even if you're protecting your own sister, you should still strive for fairness.

"Brother... don't do this... I was the one who provoked them first..."

Nan Qingshui tugged at Nan Zhu's sleeve, a little scared.

But a warm feeling involuntarily flowed through my heart.

She was already very happy that her brother was willing to stand up for her and confront the other party.

This had already surprised her greatly.

Besides, it was indeed she who deliberately provoked them before.

It's understandable that the black-haired older sister would be angry.

After all, it was just her being unreasonable from the very beginning.

She was just sulking because of her brother's behavior.

"Your tone was definitely not good, that's your problem."

"But she almost hurt you just now, that's her problem, it's a separate issue."

Nan Zhu glanced at Nan Qingshui behind him, whose face was slightly flushed, and said calmly.

Qingshui is his sister, and he couldn't possibly stand idly by when Qingshui was in danger.

"..."

Yao Qing stood with her arms crossed, silently watching the brother and sister.
