Chapter 201 Femme Fatale
"Xinmo, will Brother Gu..."
Qi Siyuan's face was full of anxiety. She stared at Leng Xinmo closely, her eyes full of worry and uneasiness.
She didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be if Gu Jingxuan really couldn't hold on.
When she thought of this, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
However, in response to Qi Siyuan's question, Leng Xinmo shook his head without hesitation.
He answered firmly, "No!"
There was an unquestionable confidence in her voice, as if she had immense trust in Gu Jingxuan.
“Although Gu Jingxuan has never truly led an army.
But as a prominent family, the Gu family's mission is to protect the country and defend the city.
This kind of responsibility and belief has long been deeply ingrained in their bones!
Moreover, over the past decade or so, we have had a highly respected person like Duke Gu as a role model.
Under the influence of what he saw and heard, Gu Jingxuan must have received an excellent instruction."
The Western Territory has a different meaning to the Gu family.
Therefore, she believed that Gu Jingxuan must have always been concerned about the peace and stability of the Western Territory over the years. "
Leng Xinmo explained with a confident look on his face.
Qi Siyuan listened quietly to Leng Xinmo's analysis, and her eyes gradually became focused.
With every word Leng Xinmo spoke, the anxiety in her heart gradually eased.
When I saw Leng Xinmo's resolute and calm face.
Qi Siyuan felt that deep in her heart, there seemed to be a power slowly rising.
It is truly admirable that Xinmo can remain calm in such a tense situation.
At this moment, Qi Siyuan's admiration for Leng Xinmo became even stronger.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly that she had never seen a woman as brave, fearless, resolute and courageous as Leng Xinmo.
There is another point that Leng Xinmo did not mention.
That man, even though he was lying in bed seriously injured at this moment.
But she still firmly believed that he would never let the Western Territory fall into an irretrievable situation.
When Leng Xinmo realized this, he couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
When did she begin to develop such a firm trust in this man?
......
"Sir, please come in..."
The waiter's enthusiastic call came from the door.
"Boss, please arrange a best private room for us!"
Along with these words, a group of people in luxurious clothes and with extraordinary momentum walked into the inn in a mighty manner.
That arrogant and conceited attitude immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Among the crowd, a woman with a sword hanging around her waist attracted special attention.
She held her head high and her chest puffed out, her eyes revealing a kind of arrogance and contempt.
When she passed by the waiter in front of her, she didn't even look at him, but went straight to the shopkeeper behind the counter and gave instructions.
The shopkeeper was a shrewd man, and he knew very well that the Western Territory was no longer as peaceful as it used to be.
There was a noticeable increase in the number of people coming and going, and business was much better as a result.
But the risks that come with it are also becoming increasingly apparent.
You know, these nobles have respected status and strong backgrounds, and you can't afford to offend them!
The shopkeeper's forehead was covered with sweat and his face turned pale with nervousness.
But he still tried hard to force a smile on his face.
Then he hurried and trotted towards the group of people.
He quickly came in front of them and bent down.
He said in a very flattering manner: "It is a great honor for our humble inn to have you, my distinguished guests!
The No. 2 room in our restaurant is still vacant, please go upstairs..."
"Number two?"
The leading man, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, frowned slightly.
There is a vermilion beauty mole between his eyebrows.
The originally rising tone was now full of irony.
Even the smiling voice seemed to exude a hint of coldness.
The shopkeeper's heart tightened, but he still tried to cheer himself up.
With a smile on his face, he explained: "In reply to your question, there are only two Tianzi rooms in our store.
But now, this room number one has been arranged for other distinguished guests..."
Jinyang City is not large and cannot be considered a prosperous place.
Most of the people who come here on weekdays are locals, and there are not many outsiders.
What's more, there are very few people with such extraordinary temperament as the distinguished guest in front of him and the people upstairs.
"Snapped......"
There was only a crisp sound, and a woman holding a long sword was seen.
Without saying a word, he raised his hand and slapped the shopkeeper who was responding.
Her beautiful eyes and eyebrows were filled with violent energy.
The voice asked sharply, "Are you deaf?
I made it clear that I want the best room!"
"The shopkeeper's!"
As the waiter's panicked shouts rang out, he rushed forward quickly.
He held on to the shopkeeper who was almost knocked to the ground by the sudden slap.
This seemingly delicate and slender woman actually possesses profound inner strength.
With such a violent wave of his hand, half of the shopkeeper's cheek was swollen and blood was oozing from the corner of his mouth.
The waiter held tightly to the shopkeeper who was staggering.
Anxiously asking: "Boss, are you feeling okay?"
Then, he turned around and glared at the culprit in anger.
He rebuked indignantly: "How can you act so violently? This is really too much!"
However, facing the accusations of everyone in the hall, the woman showed contempt and disdain on her face.
He sneered and replied, "So what if they fight? I might as well ask again, can Room 1 be vacated?"
At this moment, the shopkeeper's face was filled with fear and helplessness, and he had no idea how to respond.
The untouchable person in front of him is certainly intimidating, but the guy upstairs doesn't look like a good person either.
Jueyi, who was sitting next to him, pursed his lips slightly and bit his thin lower lip lightly.
With worried eyes, he watched the scene happening in the hall.
She lowered her voice and whispered to Leng Xinmo beside her, “Master, these people are really too presumptuous.
Will the shopkeeper be in any danger?
Right now, the Xiqi army is stationed outside Lianlu Pass, eyeing our western border covetously.
As the people of Qianyao, we should work together to resist foreign enemies.
How can they kill each other and harm innocent people? "
At the end of his speech, Jueyi's face flushed slightly, and he was obviously very angry.
"In my opinion, they are probably not from Qianyao!" Leng Xinmo's tone was still as calm as water.
