Chapter 666: Liu Qing and Cheng Gui (13)
After the site survey, no conclusion was reached . The county magistrate asked people to send the corpse back to Yamen and then brought back a few villagers that were more suspicious .
Cheng Gui walked passed the officers towards Ming Shu . He looked like a rich and useless lord as he said in a casual tone, “Can I bother you to guide me now?”
[Additional Task: Gain Hatred Points from Cheng Gui . ]
Cheng Gui?
This useless and rich person in front of me?
[Yes, all the best!] The Harmony System cheered for Ming Shu . [If you can’t handle him, you can ask for my opinion . I will do my best to help you . ]
Do your best to urge me to two-time and be a scumbug or do your best to persuade me to kill people, set fires and do immoral things?
I have seen through you!
[…] How can you think of me this way? I did it all for you!!
Ming Shu glanced at the county magistrate who was staring her her fiercely and smiled . “I am not going home . Find someone else . ”
I need to go and find my chef to eat my food . Why will I have the time to guide you?
“Lord, do you want to go to the Liu residence? I can lead the way for you . I know all the places in this village . You can go anywhere you want . ” A lady pushed Ming Shu away and patted her chest as she recommended herself .
“See, someone is here to guide you . Bye bye . ” Ming Shu pulled Qin Ling who was still unaware of the situation and left . “I am so hungry . Let’s go back and wat . ”
Cheng Gui: “…”
The lady with a freckled face looked at him shyly . She didn’t forget to wink at him .
He shivered and turned around calmly . “Mister Zhou, Mister Zhou!!”
“Yes, Lord Cheng, don’t be angry . A village lady doesn’t have much manners…” The county magistrate thought that Cheng Gui got angered by Ming Shu and quickly apologized to him . “I will ask people to catch her back and let her apologize to you . ”
“Stop her . ”
Cheng Gui pointed at the freckled lady .
Mister Zhou asked people to stop the lady . The lady didn’t give up and reached out her hand towards him . “Lord, lord, I can guide you! I can really guide you . ”
Cheng Gui might have been frightened as he walked away really quickly . The roads in the village was not easy to walk on . Cheng Gui didn’t step properly and almost fell down . Mister Zhou quickly caught him .
“What kind of road is this?” Cheng Gui pushed Mister Zhou away .
“Yes yes yes, this small place can’t be compared to the Capital…” Mister Zhou wiped off his cold swears . “Mister Zhou, do you need me to guide you to the Liu residence?”
“No need . ” Cheng Gui said, “I am not blind . ”
There was only one building in this village which could be called a residence, There was really no need to look for it . It could be seen easily .
Lord Zhou: “…”
Who was the one that asked him to find a guide!!
Why are people from the Capital so hard to please?
Ming Shu came back from the Qin family and saw a stranger standing outside the Liu residence . He seemed to be patrolling . She walked towards the Liu residence but got stopped . “Who are you?”
Ming Shu looked up at the Liu residence’s sign . This was the Liu residence .
So why was she stopped when she was going back home? The person even asked for her identity .
“Did the Liu family go bankrupt?” Ming Shu asked the person who stopped her .
The person got confused by her question .

“Do we need to mortgage the house?” Ming Shu asked again .
The person frowned and wanted to say something . The butler ran out . “This is our Second Young Lady . ”
After hearing what the butler said, the person looked at Ming Shu and cupped his hand . “So it is the Second Young Lady . Please pardon me . ”
Then, he moved away .
“Who si this? Bodyguard?” Ming Shu aske the butler .
“Second Young Lady, come in first . ” The butler lowered his voice .
Ming Shu rememebered the rich and useless person this afternoon . Did he bring this person here?!
“A Lord Cheng came to out residence . These people were brought by him . ” The butler’s explanation coincided with Ming Shu’s thoughts .
“Why is he here?”
“He didn’t say . ” The butler shook his head . “Master is talking to him now . ”
The butler reminded Ming Shu again . “Second Young Lady, someone died this afternoon . Don’t go out for this period of time . ”
“Oh . ” What will I eat if I don’t go out?
Ming Shu asked the butler to leave and went to the kitchen . She took two mantous .
At night, she heard that Cheng Gui was going to live in the residence . There was no such person in the original storyline so Ming Shu was not sure who he was too . However, looking at how careful the county magistrate was, he must be quite an important figure .
I should just eat my mantou .
Before she finished her mantou, Father Liu came personally .

“There is a guest in the house . You are a lady . Be careful when you come out . Don’t provoke the guest . ” He paused . “Don’t go out for nothing . ”
Father Liu was not here to find troubles with her . He left after he finished this sentence .
Ming Shu looked at Father Liu’s backview silently as he left . But I have a mission . It is to provoke him .
Alas!
How can we live peacefully with each other when our values are different?
The next day, Ming Shu saw Cheng Gui on the dining table .
There were two servant girls behind him . They were wearing pretty dresses and their face was pretty too . Their actions showcased their upbringing from a big family .
They looked down and stood behind the man in a standing position . They were not like those servants in the Liu residence .
Father Liu sat beside Cheng Gui . He seemed to be accompanying Cheng Gui for breakfast .
Cheng Gui didn’t eat his food . He leaned against the chair and raised his chin slightly . He looked straight at Ming Shu . “Second Young Lady Liu, are my servant girls pretty?”
“Looks can’t be eaten . ” Ming Shu smiled and sat down opposite him .
“Second Young Lady Liu, how did provoke you?” Cheng Gui raised his eyebrows . He seemed really curious . “You don’t seem to like me?”
From the first time they met till now, her words to him were all harsh even when her tone was gentle .
“That is your illusion . ” Ming Shu tilted her head . Warmth appeared in her eyes . “I don’t seem to not like you . I really don’t like you . ”
Cheng Gui: “…”
“Liu Qing, how can you talk to Lord Cheng like this?” Father Liu was afraid that Ming Shu would anger Cheng Gui so he scolded her in a low voice . “No manners at all . ”

Ming Shu pulled her mouth corners and scooped her bowl of porridge for herself . She started eating the porridge and ignored the two person beside her .
Why do I need to be polite to my target?
Cheng Gui: “…”
Father Liu: “…”
Liu Xinyue reached the latest . She didn’t see Cheng Gui yesterday but she heard from her maid that a handsome young lord came to their residence .
When she saw him today, she couldn’t help but feel shocked .
This lord was not just handsome .
Even the celebrities in her world were not as handsome as him .
“Liu Xinyue, this is my big daughter . Xinyue, pay your respect to Lord Cheng . ” Father Liu interrupted the weird atmosphere and called Liu Xinyue .
Liu Xinyue walked slowly forward and bowed . “Lord Cheng . ”
Cheng Gui nodded his head absent-mindedly . “You have a good blessing, Master Liu . Your two daughters are both really pretty . ”
“It is my honour…” Father Liu was humble .
Liu Xinyue’s face turned red .
The only seat left at the table was the one beside Ming Shu . Liu Xinyue lowered her head and walked over .
Ming Shu hooked her chair with her leg . When she sat down, she pulled the chair lightly towards her . Liu Xinyue sat on nothing and fell to the ground .
