Chapter 576: Chapter 259 Extremely Annoying_3
After that, although life may not be extremely wealthy, being a member of the Ziyang Escort Agency means no one dares to bully you.
After the previous incident, Manager He felt that his current life, truly priceless, was extremely satisfying.
Manager He from the past, and now He Zhangfang, then came Hu Sandao, drunk, leading his wife and the young and old from his stronghold to toast Su Mo.
Afterwards, they talked about the escorts undertaken and the various happenings in the Martial Arts world during the time Su was absent.
After three rounds of drinks and five courses of dishes, everyone drank and laughed until they joyfully dispersed at midnight.
…
…
Su Mo, reeking of alcohol, was supported by Yang Xiaoyun into the room.
After placing him beside the bed and about to fetch water to wash his face, Su Mo suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Startled for a moment, she turned her head only to be pulled into his embrace.
She sighed softly, too lazy to struggle, just lying on his chest feeling his heartbeat and breath, which made her feel much more at ease.
Thinking that Su Mo had fallen asleep as he lay motionless, she carefully raised her head to look at him.
Only to find out that Su Mo was also looking straight at her.
His eyes shining brightly, seemingly unaffected by alcohol.
Upon noticing her gaze, he then feigned confusion and was about to make a move with clumsy hands…
Yang Xiaoyun, half amused and frustrated, pinched hard on his naughty hand:
“How come after a trip to Dongcheng, you’ve become so cheeky?”
She turned over and pulled Su Mo up again: “Behave, or I’ll bite you.”
“Sister Yun…”
Su Mo quietly looked at Yang Xiaoyun: “There’s something I eventually need to tell you.”
“…What is it?”
Yang Xiaoyun paused, his seriousness making her nervous.
She couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander.
Could it be…he was about to propose?
Or… did he have some experiences in Dongcheng?
Otherwise…
While she was feeling nervous and embarrassed, she heard Su Mo say in a deep voice:
“I haven’t washed my face this entire journey.”
“Ah?”
“I really didn’t want to.”
He touched his own face.
“…”
Yang Xiaoyun was initially baffled, but upon realizing, her face turned beet red:
“You…you…how could you!!”
Before Su Mo left for Dongcheng, she, acting on impulse, kissed him on the face.
The next day, Uncle Fu mentioned that he didn’t wash his face in the morning.
Who would have thought that after such a long time, he would use this to tease her.
She was so embarrassed, wishing she could find a blanket to cover her head and hide the blush on her face.
But where could she find a blanket right then?
Especially as Su Mo looked at her with a mischievous grin, she, feeling irritated, grabbed his arm and bit down on his wrist…
But ultimately, she couldn’t bear to hurt him, and spat out: “Stinks, can’t bite down.”
“Should I wash and let Sister Yun bite more comfortably?”
“If you keep this up, I’ll ignore you…”
Yang Xiaoyun’s face flushed as she changed the topic:
“Why did you pretend to be drunk again? Now that you’re home, rest well.”
Su Mo held her hand, softly shaking his head: “I’m afraid it’s not possible for now; the affairs of Tianqu City have spread far and wide. My reputation now is quite burdensome… initially, there will inevitably be troubles.
“What kinds of demons and monsters will come to bother you.
“Those who came to the door today were mostly with the intention of making connections, and some may come knocking at night.
“Whether their intentions are good or bad are hard to say.
“The title of ’No.1 in Donghuang’ is not something I want on my head, but it’s unavoidable.
“As for the game with the Eternal Night Demon Lord, it isn’t over yet.”
Yang Xiaoyun, understanding the gravity, suddenly asked:
“Do you think the Night Lord will make a big deal out of this?”
Su Mo pondered briefly and shook his head slightly: “Even if he wants to, he’s powerless to do so.
“Before I returned, the leaders of the Seven Great Sects had already started heading to Tianqu City.
“They are gathering in Tianqu City for a Martial Arts Conference to strategize against Eternal Night Valley.
“Since this event has taken shape, even if the Night Lord is alive, he will be too busy to focus.
“He targets Donghuang and certainly won’t let his foundations be destroyed, for what can a person achieve alone, no matter how high his martial arts?
“For now, he surely has no time to pay attention to me… Furthermore, he even dares not to act rashly with the plot in Wusheng Hall.
“This person is extremely sharp. I used Ren Xiongfei’s name to test him at Wangliang Courtyard; he definitely knows there was a mishap with Ren Xiongfei that I noticed.
“But he doesn’t know how much I actually know about it; rash actions would only raise my suspicions.
“To make me suspect that he hasn’t died.
“Now, he dares not handle it further, he can only let things unfold and wait for his injuries to heal.”
Yang Xiaoyun nodded upon hearing this: “So, it seems that it really is the best opportunity to attack Wusheng Hall now. At least, to eliminate one of Night Lord’s minions there.”
“Exactly.”
Su Mo smiled: “That’s the most interesting part of this game. He survived a near-death situation and must be worried whether I know he’s still alive. He will certainly be cautious and verify the truth. And what I need to do is to make the Night Lord believe that I think he died… so he would act recklessly and boldly.
“That way, catching traces of him will be…”
Just as he said this, Su Mo suddenly looked towards the door, frowning slightly.
Surely enough, a voice came from the rooftop:
“I’ve heard that Su, the Chief of the Escort, has supreme martial arts, defeated the Youquan Sect master with his palm, killed the Eternal Night Demon Lord with his fists, and is regarded as the top master in the world today!
“I’m Wang Chong, coming uninvited today, earnestly requesting a duel with Lord Su… oops!”
A cry of surprise followed by the sound of something heavy falling.
Then came Liu Mo’s slightly drunk voice:
“Our Chief has no time to see someone like you. Can’t even catch one of my clubs and you dare to make noise in our escort agency?
“Xiao Xiao, throw him out over the wall.”
“Okay!”
A crisp and pleasant voice followed, then the sound of something heavy flying through the air until it was almost inaudible.
Su Mo couldn’t help but glance at Yang Xiaoyun:
“He didn’t die from that, did he?”
