Chapter 73 Killer
Outside the door, there was a sound of swords being unsheathed, followed by several muffled sounds, and the beggars screamed and fled in all directions.

After a while, the guard finished handling the corpse, pushed the door open again and entered, guarding beside the gate.

Jing Xing's decisive attack scared the children so much that even Xue Shu was stunned.

The atmosphere that had just heated up suddenly cooled down again.

At this time, in the eyes of the children, the two guards had changed from "big brothers who protected them" to "brothers who killed people like hemp".

Meeting Xue Shu's astonished gaze, Jing Xing's pupils shrank, and he suddenly regretted it.

She shouldn't have seen this side of herself.

shocked.

Xue Shu was not afraid, she had heard a lot about Jing Xing's deeds of killing Guo Jue in her previous life, but she had never personally come into contact with this side of Jing Xing, so she was not used to it for a while.

After all, Jing Xing has always been gentle towards her, but now he suddenly showed his fangs... It would be hard for anyone to get used to it.

"It's getting late, your little envoy is still waiting for you," Jing Xing coughed lightly, "Let's go."

"Okay." Xue Shu nodded, returned the comb to the little girl, coaxed a few more words softly, then got up and walked to Jing Xing's side.

Xue Shu straightened her hair, put on her hat again, wrapped herself tightly, and looked at Jing Xing.

Jing Xing sized her up, then stretched out his hand to tighten her hat a little more.

Then, just like when he came, Jing Xing grabbed her waist and led her onto the horse, and the guards also got on the horse neatly.

"—Wait." Xue Shu turned her head to look at the backyard of the Salesian Bureau.

It's all here, and she wants to go see it again.

Maybe this time, she can find that person.

"It's too late, you should rest." Jing Xing said, turning the rein in his hand, and drove the horse slowly towards the door.

Xue Shu still looked back stubbornly, and the guards drove their horses to stand in front of Jing Xing when they saw this.

They are Xue Shu's guards, if the master doesn't want to leave, they have to stop them here.

Jing Xing sighed softly, and directly resorted to his trump card: "If you wait any longer, your little envoy probably won't be able to hold on."

The last time Xue Shu went around the backyard, she was quite frightened. No matter what was in the backyard, he didn't want to see Xue Shu look so pale and fragile again.

Big deal, he will come here some other day, dig three feet into the ground, dig out what Xue Shu wants, and just give it to her.

"I..." Xue Shu struggled a bit, sighed, and finally compromised.

Although before leaving, she said to ask Qingyu to go back and wait, but according to that girl's temperament, she would never be obedient at this time, and she must still be staying in the stable now.

What Jing Xing said was right, if the delay continued, Qingyu would definitely be frozen to death.

Since that person was in the backyard of the Salesian Bureau, he probably couldn't leave easily, and she didn't need to be in a hurry.

Seeing the master's compromise, the guards stepped aside one after another.

With a faint smile in Jing Xing's eyes, he finally took Xue Shu on the way home.

At this time, in the backyard of the Salesian Bureau, Zhu Yaoxing's expression became more complicated when he heard the sound of everyone leaving.

This person...has no curiosity at all?
-

When he went back, he lost the rush he had when he came here, Jing Xing slowed down a bit, and chatted with Xue Shu: "Why do you suddenly come to the Salesian Bureau today?"

Obviously no one came to report to Xue Shu, but Xue Shu knew that something happened to the Salesian Bureau, like a telepathy, how could people not be curious.

"Suddenly wanted to come." Xue Shu replied nonsense listlessly.

Jing Xing chuckled and didn't ask any more questions.

After being silent for a while, Jing Xing asked again: "I heard that Mr. Sheng's leg was broken today. Does Shu'er know about this?"

As soon as Xue Shu heard this, her body tensed up subconsciously: "Ah? Is that so? And this?"

Sensing the stiff body of the person in his arms, Jing Xing restrained himself from laughing this time: "Yes, it turns out that Shu'er doesn't know?"

"How can I know, I don't step out of the door without going through the second door."

Jing Xing was silent, and raised his eyes to look at the people retreating rapidly on both sides.

She doesn't leave the door, but where are they now?

Is it in the back garden of Zuo Xiangfu?

Although Xue Shu did not admit it, Jing Xing also had the answer in his heart.

Unexpectedly, this delicate and soft girl in her arms, who seemed harmless, was actually a decisive one.

It's pretty deep.

Everyone entered Zuo Xiang's mansion through the side door and sent the horse back to the stable.

As expected, Qingyu was waiting in front of the stable. Seeing them coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward to help Xue Shu off the horse, looked around her several times, and was completely relieved when she saw that she was indeed fine.

Xue Shu shook Qingyu's hand, touched the cold temperature, Xue Shu frowned, and was about to go back.

Before she left, she still had time to find a warm cloak to wrap around her, but Qingyu went to call for someone after getting the order, and she didn't even have time to put on a cloak, and after staying outside for so long, her face was already blue from the cold up.

Xue Shu walked a few steps and then stopped, she turned to look at Jing Xing: "Thank you Mr. Jing for taking me out tonight, how about treating Mr. Jing to dinner another day?"

"I'll wait." Jing Xing nodded.

So Xue Shu didn't stay any longer, and took Qingyu back to Tangli Residence quickly.

"You, why didn't you know to come back and wait?" Xue Shu was angry and distressed, she put the stove into Qingyu's arms, and got up to pour warm water for her.

Qingyu's lips were blue from the cold, and her upper and lower teeth were trembling uncontrollably, she looked very pitiful.

Fortunately, Xue Shu had the experience of living in a Taoist temple in her previous life. After feeding her with a few cups of warm water, Qingyu's complexion improved a lot.

"It's too late to drink ginger soup. You should rest well tonight." Xue Shu found frostbite ointment, took Qingyu's hand, and carefully applied a thick layer on her. Wake up early, you should take care of your body first, then the business will be done."

Freezing in the cold wind for such a long time is not a joke. If it is not maintained properly, it may become the root cause of the disease in the future.

They never suffered from the cold when they were in the Taoist temple in their previous lives, so it makes no sense to suffer from the cold in the capital.

Qingyu didn't think there was anything wrong: "Your servant is already feeling much better now, don't worry, girl! Your servant is in good health and will be fine."

Xue Shu ignored her.

Good health does not mean that you can spoil it at will.

"Girl, the hot water is ready." A little maid knocked on the door and said softly, "Sister Qingyu's bathroom has also been properly arranged."

Xue Shu let out a "hmm", but Qing Yu was stunned: "My bathroom?"

"I just had a cold, so I need to soak in hot water." Xue Shu nodded, "Go, go to bed after soaking."

Qingyu is the only personal envoy around Xue Shu, and Xue Shu has always loved her, so her treatment is naturally much higher than others.

For example, she lives in a wing room and has her own independent bathroom, so she doesn't have to share one room like other servants.

"Yes!" Qing Yu stood up abruptly, trotted out of the bedroom, and went straight to her own bathroom.

Looking at her back, Xue Shu shook her head helplessly. She was not cold, so she didn't take a bath at all, took off her coat and fell asleep directly.
