Gallinas y perros vuelan en el caos y el renacimiento - Capítulo 73
Unexpected, yet predictable.
Chu Gexing then thought that the most reliable way to deal with someone like Tang Leyan was to keep her tightly tied to his side.
He gave a cold snort, flicked his sleeves, and left.
He naturally knew where to find her. He originally disdained to do it, but after thinking it over, he decided that rather than going to see Chu Zhen in a disheveled state, he might as well go and see what that guy was up to.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the Martial Arts Champion's Mansion, before even stepping inside...
A scream came from inside: "Wow... a man is here! A man is here..." The voice was extremely excited.
Chu Gexing frowned and paused slightly.
I almost doubted that I had gone to the wrong place.
"Where? Where?" another voice asked.
The girl with an oval face and the girl with a round face stood at the entrance of the hall, looking in this direction.
Their eyes sparkled, and pink, unidentified bubbles filled the air.
Chu Gexing felt like a rare animal being watched by everyone.
One woman is equal to five hundred ducks, two women are equal to a thousand ducks.
He firmly believed it.
As I regret my decision to come here...
I'm starting to miss the person I used to meet, the one who always used his fists more than his words.
It was as if the heavens had heard his heartfelt words.
A voice drifted leisurely from inside the hall: "Who goes there? Tell him not to disturb this young master, get rid of him."
Chu Ge Xing smiled.
One of the maids beamed and turned around to report, "Young master, she's quite the beauty." She winked at Mo Hua beside her.
"Yes, she's definitely a beauty," Mo Hua repeated slowly.
Chu Gexing's gaze swept over with the sharpness of a sword.
The two exclaimed in surprise, and before Chu Gexing could react, they retreated towards the hall entrance and disappeared without a trace.
"Luckily, Xiao Di isn't here."
"Well, poor little Di," he said as he ran.
Chu Gexing frowned slightly and stepped forward.
As I approached the hall entrance, I heard the person inside continue, "What's there to pity? I'm the most pitiful one, okay? How can I face him looking like this... I have to make sure these damn bruises aren't so obvious."
Listen quietly to the Chu Song.
He then said angrily, "That damned guy actually made me go with him! How could I, this young master, go with such a violent, stinky man? Oh, no, I mean, that stinky transvestite..." He suddenly stopped.
Chu Gexing had already stopped walking. A cold smile remained on his lips, and he could feel his hand unconsciously clenching into a fist inside his sleeve.
An unknown aura began to slowly emanate from his entire body.
Suddenly, all voices in the hall fell silent. After a short while, they resumed: "Huh, it's so quiet now, is there no one here? Then you can speak your mind... Actually, I've long held that... that Lord Chu in high esteem. After all... someone as handsome and dashing as you, unparalleled in history, with a face as beautiful as a flower and as fair as the moon, surpassing all others in the world... such a person... such a person, I mean such a person... is very rare these days."
So this is what it feels like to lie.
Tang Leyan tried her best not to frown.
I finally managed to get rid of the bruises around my eyes using a family-secret, traditional remedy. If I frown, it might leave wrinkles.
But why... does it feel so difficult to say these words?
She can usually flatter or insult people effortlessly and without batting an eye.
So, it seems that these things really do vary from person to person.
What man has arrived? That's such a vague statement.
Shi Shu and Mo Zhu really deserve to be beaten.
Without clarifying the details, simply mentioning "man" and "beauty" made it impossible for her to contact Chu Gexing for the time being.
It would probably be simpler to say "demon" and "man".
Luckily, she was quick-witted and noticed the distinctive footsteps and the suspicious aura emanating from outside the hall. She suddenly realized: the nemesis had come knocking.
So, let's quickly say something nice to cover up those two "treasonous" words.
Although he knew Chu Gexing wasn't an easy person to get along with, he figured that by going to such lengths to flatter him, even her insincere words would at least make his tender heart feel a little better.
"What are you doing?" the man asked in a deep voice.
Stepping into the living room, Chu Gexing was taken aback.
Tang Leyan lay on her back on the soft couch, her face covered with a suspicious layer of white stuff.
Only the eyes and mouth are visible.
"Wow... it's the Admiral! What a rare guest!" The man didn't move, making fake humming sounds.
Chu Gexing flicked his sleeve: "No need. What are you up to now? Do you remember our agreement?"
“I remember, I remember,” she said, her lips twitching. “It is precisely because I remember that I have returned so early. Hmm. Thanks to you, sir, I am ashamed to face anyone. I want to hurry up and get my eye treated before I go to see you, Your Excellency.”
"Are you upset that I hit you, making you ashamed to face people, or do you have other intentions?" Chu Gexing said without any politeness, stepping forward and sitting down at the table next to her.
Tang Leyan glanced at him sideways and chuckled twice, the laughter sounding quite strange.
Chu Gexing observed that it was the layer covering her face that prevented her from speaking loudly or laughing out loud.
He found it extremely amusing and couldn't help but reach out and tap her face.
She reached out and blocked him, saying, "Hey? Don't touch me. This is a secret recipe, and it can't be shared with outsiders..." She glanced at Chu Gexing again, "Besides, the Admiral is naturally beautiful and doesn't need to do this kind of thing like us mortals."
Chu Gexing was stopped by her outstretched hand, and withdrew it, coldly snorting, "I know even if you don't say it, this taste contains pearl powder and..."
Tang Leyan put her hand to her lips and gently pursed it: "Shh, don't speak loudly, this is a trade secret."
Chu Gexing glared at her: "Then when will you be ready?"
"There's still a while, I promise it won't be a delay. I also want to see His Excellency as soon as possible."
She spoke with such ease and comfort, even crossing one leg.
Chu Gexing felt a slight pang in his heart upon hearing this. After a pause, he said, "I just asked you why you came back specifically to do this. You should know that the Grand Secretary is not one to judge people by their appearance."
“Of course I know,” she said nonchalantly, “but am I the kind of person who judges by appearances?”
"Who are you?" Chu Gexing asked with a hint of disdain.
“Of course,” Tang Leyan laughed, then suddenly stopped, “I can’t laugh, I absolutely can’t let any wrinkles appear.”
She was only a fourteen-year-old girl, yet she was worrying about something as trivial as wrinkles. Chu Gexing really wanted to slap her on the head and wake her up.
"Since..." Chu Gexing stopped abruptly as he uttered the words.
She chuckled strangely twice more: "Hehe, I know what you want to say." Chu Gexing snorted coldly and remained silent, knowing she wouldn't say anything nice, so he simply didn't ask.
Although he was born delicate, like a peerless beauty living in a secluded valley, he possessed a naturally endearing and charming demeanor. Even his ruthlessness was captivating. Countless infatuated men and women bowed down before him in his blue robes. No one ever criticized his appearance. However, the person in front of him was not swayed by this. Every time he met him, he would belittle him, as if he were truly unsightly. This infuriated him.
Although Chu Gexing wasn't someone who paid much attention to appearance, how could he remain unmoved when someone who had been praised to the skies for so long was suddenly trampled underfoot?
Tang Leyan stopped talking and reached out to touch the stuff on her face: "Hmm, that's about right."
Chu Gexing was preoccupied with his own thoughts and didn't want to pay any attention to her.
Tang Leyan stood up: "Admiral, please wait here for a moment, I will be right back."
Chu Gexing agreed and remained seated.
Tang Leyan cupped her face in her hands and hurried towards the inner hall. She was still wearing those strange-looking glasses.
She reached out and pressed her hand against her face, then looked up at Chu Gexing: "How is it? Don't you think I look a bit fairer and more radiant?"
Chu Gexing lowered his head, almost suffocating.
With that face right in front of her, how dare she make such a provocative gesture?
He couldn't speak: "So what?" he could only ask back.
Tang Leyan wasn't very satisfied with the question, and raised her hand to adjust her glasses: "You must have been amazed by my beauty."
The song of Chu is utterly defeated.
He had grown accustomed to her unexpected actions, but seeing this, he still couldn't help but ask, "Was that meal just now a waste of time? Why do you still need to wear this?" His voice was a mix of schadenfreude and mockery.
Tang Leyan didn't care. She had long been used to his sarcastic remarks and was numb to them. She chuckled and said, "That's just something to make me look more radiant. My eye injury hasn't fully healed yet."
"You're going on a blind date, do you really need to do all this?" Chu Gexing said sullenly.
"How do you know it's not a blind date?" She grinned, looking extremely eager. "Let's go, let's go!"
Seeing that he was moving slowly, she walked over and grabbed his sleeve.
Chu Gexing was taken aback, thinking to himself that this person was really quite enthusiastic about being summoned by the Grand Secretary.
Seeing her wearing those dark glasses, looking both funny and mischievous, I couldn't help but tickle her a little with my hand hidden in my sleeve.
Dragon and Tiger Fight in the Capital Chapter 89 Meeting
As Xue Xin climbed out of the carriage, a tall, slender figure appeared in the doorway.
"Arno!" Xue Xin looked up, a smile blooming on his face.
Xue Nuo ran quickly to the carriage, and Xue Xin jumped off the carriage while he grabbed Xue Nuo's arm.
After landing gently, Xue Xin looked up and examined the person in front of him.
"It's been years! You seem to have grown taller." She smiled, her eyes narrowing into beautiful crescent shapes.
"You don't seem to have lost much weight either. Looks like things are going well in the Northern Frontier." Xue Nuo looked at the person in front of her, a smile involuntarily appearing on her face.
"You've actually gotten a bit stronger. Do you like the fish from the East Sea?" Xue Xin asked with a smile, tilting his head to look at him.
“Not as good as the fat sheep of the Northern Frontier, haha,” Xue Nuo’s hand slid down and grabbed his hand: “You’re too late. Chu Zhen has been waiting for a long time.”
My hands trembled slightly.
Xue Xin grasped it with his other hand.
