Chapter 23 I’m standing here, I can’t run away

After saying that, Qin Shuangjiang turned to look at the person standing beside him, his eyes as calm and distant as ever.

Xiao Rongce opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he also understood that it was useless to say anything now.

He looked at her with loving and helpless eyes.

Qin Shuangjian sat on the chair in the pavilion, looked back at the people behind him, and said with a playful smile: "Of course, if you can cover the sky with one hand like Yan Xu'an, I may not be able to consider abandoning the dark side and continuing to be Qin Zhiyun. substitute."

As she said that, under Xiao Rongce's unbelievable gaze, she turned back to look at Yan Yunxiang's ship that was gradually approaching the shore. She paused slightly and breathed a long sigh of relief before continuing: "It's a pity. Mr. Xiao is an upright person and fights for power and profit. I don’t care about things like that.”

Listening to her sarcastic tone, Xiao Rongce frowned. His heart felt like a huge stone was pressing down on him. He was breathless. After a long silence, he said as if he was heartbroken and sad: "Shuangjiang, you...you have changed, you." It wasn’t like this before.”

Qin Shuangjiang was indifferent, he just raised the corners of his mouth lightly, twisted a strand of long hair in front of him with his slender fingers, and retorted: "No, I have always been like this, you just didn't see it clearly."

Xiao Rongce was speechless, and for a long time, neither of them said anything, until Zhuling and Qiulian followed Yan Yunxiang ashore. Zhuling stood outside the pavilion, raised the scabbard in her hand, and knocked on the pillar nearby.

The two of them turned around after hearing the sound. Zhuling looked cold, her gaze fell directly on Qin Shuangjiang, and she ignored Xiao Rongce who was standing aside and said, "Madam, it's getting late, it's time to go back."

Qin Shuangjiang didn't say anything, hesitated for a moment, and stood up calmly. The moment he passed Xiao Rongce, Xiao Rongce wanted to stay, but Qin Shuangjiang stopped again.

Xiao Rongce was slightly startled, and Qin Shuangjiang turned to look at him, "Mr. Xiao, if there is nothing important in the future, let's not meet in private. If my family misunderstands and hurts innocent people, then the gain will really outweigh the loss."

After that, she ignored Xiao Rongce's increasingly disappointed look and turned around to leave with Zhuling.

Qin Shuangjiang had just walked out of the pavilion. As a killer, her sensitivity made her instantly aware of the abnormalities around her. She paused in her steps and raised her eyes to look at the lotus standing not far away, squatting by the pool and trying to reach out to the lotus that had not yet opened in the pool. Yan Yun Xiang.

Her eyes were slightly cold and she said softly: "There is someone."

Zhu Ling on the side was slightly startled, and before she could realize the meaning of Qin Shuangjiang's words, the next moment, a dozen men in black suddenly appeared on the calm lake, accompanied by the "crash" sound when they came out of the water, and the people swimming in the lake. The screams of rich young ladies.

Fortunately, the guard on the side had quick eyesight and quick hands, and fished Yan Yunxiang back by the lake. He successfully avoided the blade dropped by the man in black. The heavy knife fell on the ground and split open the lotus that Yan Yunxiang left on the shore. Crush.

Seeing more men in black emerging from the water, their target was obvious, and that was Yan Yunxiang.

Qin Shuangjiang glanced at Zhu Ling beside him, with a smile in his calm eyes: "Aren't you going to help?"

Zhuling's feet that had just moved stopped and she turned to look at Qin Shuangjiang, her eyes guarded and confused. She was still hesitating. The fight was already in full swing, and all the guards were busy protecting Yan Yunxiang.

Seeing Zhu Ling still standing beside her, looking like she wanted to help but seemed a little worried, Qin Shuangjiang couldn't help but laugh: "What are you worried about, Master Ling? I'm standing here, and I can't run away."

Zhuling looked at her and no longer pretended to be vigilant and impatient before, but the current situation was that there were too many people in black, and the guards were no match at all.

Helpless, Zhuling had no choice but to draw her sword and fight to protect the thin Yan Yunxiang. Qin Shuangjiang stood aside with no intention of taking action until everyone struggled to attack the man in black.

Qin Shuangjiang curled his lips in satisfaction, suddenly took steps, and sprinted towards the crowd. Zhu Ling only felt a white shadow flash past, and when she turned back, Qin Shuangjiang had already pulled Yan Yunxiang to cover her ears. The momentum broke out of the heavy siege.

Zhuling's eyes darkened and her heart was slightly frightened. She pushed the man in black away from her face and turned around to chase Qin Shuangjiang, but before she could take a few steps, a knife appeared in her hand. He slashed down head on, blocking her way.At this time, Qin Shuangjiang had already dragged Yan Yunxiang away, passed through the lively market, successfully shook off all the men in black, and hid in a sparsely populated alley. Yan Yunxiang held on to the corner of Qin Shuangjiang's clothes, and the whole The person was shaking terribly.

After it was confirmed that it was safe, Qin Shuangjiang turned back to look at the deep Yan Yunxiang, and Yan Yunxiang stuttered and said: "I...sister, I...I, I'm so scared."

Qin Shuangjiang just glanced at her and had no intention of comforting her. He just asked her to hold on to his sleeves. When he turned around and was about to leave, suddenly the sound of strong footsteps came from the roof nearby.

She stretched out her hand and pulled Yan Yunxiang over behind her. The blade above her head fell, and a black shadow flashed past. Qin Shuangjiang protected Yan Yunxiang behind him, raised his foot and kicked him over, hitting the man in black in the arms, and the other person suddenly stepped back. After a few steps, he stopped with his back against the wall.

Yan Yunxiang hid behind Qin Shuangsheng, and the two sides faced off. After a moment of stalemate, when their eyes met, the man in black decisively stepped away.

Qin Shuangjiang was a little confused when a chill suddenly came from her back. Qin Shuangjiang suddenly turned her head and saw a bright dagger stabbing her from behind. She dodged to avoid it, grabbed the opponent's wrist, and used a little force to remove her. With the dagger in his hand, he pushed her against the wall with his backhand.

Yan Yunxiang grunted in pain, and Qin Shuangjiang pressed the back of her head, pressing the side of her face against the wall. She gritted her teeth, frowned, and looked at Qin Shuangjiang with pitiful eyes, but also an imperceptible coolness. .

Qin Shuangjiang's eyes were slightly cold, and he gritted his teeth and looked at the person in front of him who was captured by him: "It seems that you are not easy either."

Just as she finished speaking, there was a noise outside the alley. Qin Shuangjiang turned around and saw Zhu Ling who had just caught up.

Seeing this, Zhuling decisively pulled out the sword from her waist, pointed it at Qin Shuangjiang without hesitation and said sternly: "Let go!"

Qin Shuangjiang saw that she had no room for negotiation and was not going to explain anything. He decisively let go. The moment she let go, Yan Yunxiang turned around and hid behind Zhuling, holding on to her hand pitifully. On the corner of Zhuling's clothes were the same pitiful words: "Sister Zhuling, I'm so scared. Sister Shuangjiang is so fierce."

Zhuling also protected her behind her and looked at Qin Shuangjiang with increasing vigilance: "Madam, Miss Yan is your biological sister, you are not so jealous, are you?"

Qin Shuangjiang didn't say anything, but looked at Zhuling with a smile. His eyes turned slightly and fell on Yan Yunxiang behind her. After walking back and forth a few times, he just smiled lightly: "You're right, in the future, you can... Don’t regret it.”

into the night.

The night was cool and everything was quiet.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhuling knocked on the door of the study room, and with the "squeaking" sound of the door being pushed open, the lights flickered. Inside, Yan Xu'an was standing in front of the window, slightly raising his head to look at the round hanging hanging high in the dark night. moon.

"Sir." Zhuling nodded in greeting.

Yan Xu'an's eyes were slightly lowered, and he only whispered two words from his side eyes: "How?"

Zhuling responded truthfully: "The affairs of the men in black have been found out. They are all remnants of the General's Mansion and they came for the young lady. However, all the men in black had committed suicide by taking poison when they were arrested. Only the tokens on their bodies can prove it." Its identity, in addition..."

She paused slightly, obviously a little confused about whether she should say it or not, but after a moment of hesitation, she still said: "I met Master Xiao by chance at the market today. Madam chatted with him for a while, and then there was nothing else."

Yan Xu'an's eyes were slightly cold and he didn't say anything. He just raised his hand to push away Zhu Ling and murmured: "Xiao Rongce." His tone was full of murderous intent...
