Host No. 7749’s Law of Mission Failure

Chapter 156 1 green smoked ink dye (25)

Pei Jiu was not exaggerating at all when he said he would leave after shopping.

Adjutant Xu helped her carry her things and stood outside the hall.

The beautiful girl is wearing a white cheongsam, with a hairpin in a gentle low bun, leaving a strand of hair hanging on her chest. Her eyebrows are delicate and beautiful, and her curved eyes are all as beautiful as a painting.

Pei Jiu only went in for ten seconds, then flipped up his hair and walked out casually.

It wasn't just her he was taking away.

There are also two groups of soldiers.

And they will take the train back first.

He changed into his regular clothes, carried his luggage in one hand, and held her in the other.

According to Adjutant Xu, although Marshal Pei had a good reputation in Qing'an City and the surrounding areas, the warlords would still make them feel uncomfortable.

So it is more convenient to change to regular clothes.

Lu Jian nodded, and Pei Jiu glanced at Xu Che casually, giving him a "Shut up" look.

According to the dividing line between the Qinling Mountains and the Huaihe River, to the north are Haoshan City, Qing'an City, and Sujiang City, and further to the north are the areas that have been pacified.

The northernmost border has signed a foreign agreement, and the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river.

After all, only the internal unrest party members and external collusion hidden in the south still need to be dealt with.

When they arrived at Sujiang City, Pei Jiu took Lu Jian and got out of the car.

The temperature here is quite cool, not as cold as before today.

She tightened her shawl and was surrounded by his arms, so she was not squeezed by the crowd.

Looking at the slightly gloomy sky, she frowned and said, "Young Marshal, can you arrive today?"

Pei Jiu ruffled her hair and curled her lips slightly. The slight curve looked very nice, "You can stay in the hotel first."

Sujiang City looks more modern than the previous two cities, probably because the economy and trade along the coast are more developed.

The hotels here also look like small hotels. A few cars will pass by on the street from time to time, and there are relatively few rickshaw drivers.

One after another, two-story small western-style buildings line both sides of the street. There are also operating tobacco and alcohol shops, restaurants, and chess and card rooms, all of which can be seen everywhere.

Because the sky is getting dark, the street lights on both sides have begun to turn on, and the bright neon lights interpret the prosperity of this area.

"Hotel?"

"Any hotel you push into is my property." He bent down, met Lu Jian's eyes, and said with crooked eyes, "Young Marshal, I am so rich, marrying me will definitely not be a loss."

"Of course~" Pei Jiu snapped his fingers, "If you want to go home first, you only need to take another hour's car ride."

It's just that he felt that her face was particularly ugly on the train, as if she was motion sick, and he felt that she could no longer go on the road.

"You can go back first." She did get motion sickness, but it was not serious. She slept on Pei's wine for three hours in the car.

Although I couldn't sleep, I could still bear it for an hour.

"..."

Pei Jiu swept her cheek without saltiness and threw the luggage away, "Xu Che."

Adjutant Xu caught the luggage, "What's wrong, Marshal?"

Pei Jiu glanced sideways slightly, "Find a hotel and put it in my exclusive room, and book another one yourself."

"How about two less——"

"No need." He said quietly, "Am I unable to protect myself?"

"Then Madam——"

"I will follow you every step of the way."

Xu Che was speechless, "Okay, I'll go ahead first. Where can I wait for you?"

Pei Jiu didn't answer him first. He bent down slightly, rested his chin on her shoulder, and asked softly with side eyes, "Are you feeling uncomfortable now?"

Lu Jian blinked, then shook his head honestly.

"Do you like listening to music?"

"..." She nodded hesitantly.

Because when she was in Yuzhen, in order for Chu Yao to stay there with a reasonable identity, Lu Xi told the public that she liked opera very much.

And she actually doesn't dislike it too much.

"Qi Fenglan has a performance today, I will take you to see it."

Hearing the affirmative answer, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up, "I have an exclusive seat. You can watch it whenever you want."

He was now like a puppy begging for praise, nuzzling her neck like this, squinting at her without blinking.

A soft and slender hand gently covered his hair and rubbed it twice.

"Yeah, great."

He curled his eyes and seemed to be even more happy.

Xu Che covered his face from behind and couldn't even see.

Instead of being a light bulb, he might as well leave.

……

As far as she knows.

The current location should be the Kunshan area of ​​​​Sujiang City.

This is the birthplace of Kunqu Opera. Unlike Yuzhen in the south, where there is continuous rain and heavy fog in the morning, it has a unique flavor.

When you walk into the box, there is a window where you can look down.

The cool evening air blew through the gauze curtains, blowing up a strand of hair on her temples.

Zhengdan flicked her long sleeves, her face decorated with pink and ink looked forward to her husband, and sang sadly.

"It's a pity that these are troubled times~ Husband, you never grew old with me~"

"You look at how nice the handsome girl is, but you just thought you were betraying me~"

The gentle cheongsam girl held her chin up and stared intently at the performance below.

Looking back, I happened to meet Pei Jiu's eyes.

"..." She opened her mouth, "What are you singing about?"

"Maybe Madam rarely listens to Kunqu Opera." The corners of his lips curled up in a slight arc, and his eyes seemed to be filled with a gentle smile. "It's a story about an overseas student who fell in love with a foreign lady and abandoned his original wife."

The words seemed to be dispersed by the evening wind into the night, under the dim moonlight and neon lights.

The handsome young man in front of him added another sentence.

"Madam~" He supported his chin with his hands, "I'm not some other half-hearted man~"

"..." She looked away unbearably, "Young Marshal, it's like you turned on the screen."

He stood up, sat next to her, leaned back slightly, squinted his eyes and smiled, "I'm just teasing you."

"You won't be angry with me now." He smiled.

Lu Jian: "..."

She didn't say anything. She shifted her gaze and continued to watch the show, simply out of sight and out of mind.

Pei Jiu also followed her gaze and looked down.

Among the rows of tables and chairs in the hall, he saw another person with sharp eyes.

In an instant, the smile on his face faded, and the curve of his lips was straightened.

The temperature of his body dropped almost instantly, and his eyes glowed coldly.

When he realized that Lu Jian was also looking over there, his mood instantly fell from heaven to hell. His eyes were as deep as thick ink that was difficult to open.

What is madam looking at?

Is she looking at that person?

Lu Jian just lay gently on the edge of the bed, looking at Ning Qi flying around in the field with his lips closed.

[Look at you having a great time. 】

[Husband~] Ning Qi picked it up.

【Huh? 】The little girl made a confused sound and flew to the head of a man.

[Host sister, look, is this the man named? 】

Lu Jian followed its figure and looked over, slightly surprised.

[Call Song Chushu. 】

"What are you looking at?" At the same time, the voice of the person behind him also sounded faintly.
