Chapter 162 Speaking of which, this matter also has something to do with you
Unexpectedly, the next second, before everyone could see what was happening, they saw Wan Zilang flying out, lying on the wall in a big letter shape, and slowly sliding down like an octopus.
"Brother Zilang!"
"Wan Zilang?"
The voices in front belonged to Ye Haoyang and Su Jingan, while the voices in the back belonged to Qiu Ning.
Gu Li only noticed that someone was attacking him from behind, so he subconsciously turned around and kicked the person out, but he didn't pay much attention to who the person behind him was.
When Gu Li heard Qiu Ning calling out the other person's name, he realized that there seemed to be a misunderstanding.
"Do you know this person?" Gu Li asked Qiu Ning.
Qiu Ning glanced at Gu Li, his face full of black lines.
"Yes, of course I know him."
"Um, Uncle Gu, could you please wait a moment? I'll go first..." Qiu Ning pointed at Wan Zilang and his group, the meaning was self-evident.
Gu Li's face was a little grumpy, but she still turned around and walked towards the private room first. Before leaving, she did not forget to say:
"I'll only give you a quarter of an hour."
Qiu Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Gu."
After Gu Li left, she hurried forward to check on Wan Zilang's injuries. Gu Li's kung fu was not weak, and she was very worried about whether Wan Zilang could withstand this full-strength kick.
However, when Qiu Ning arrived next to Wan Zilang, he found that he had his eyes open, with a look of despair on his face, staring at the ceiling above his head without blinking.
Qiu Ning stretched out her hand and waved it over him, "Hey, are you okay?"
Wan Zilang still didn't move. Just when Qiu Ning was about to order the waiter to help lift the man up, the next second, Wan Zilang suddenly sat up and shook his head.
Then, he stared at Qiu Ning with an accusing look on his face and said aggrievedly, "Little Aning, you've changed!"
Qiu Ning:? !!
Ye Haoyang: ???
Gu Li, who hadn't walked far yet, happened to hear this and was considering whether to turn back and kick him again. But Qiu Ning first grabbed Wan Zilang and pulled him away, then raised his foot and kicked Wan Zilang lightly.
"If you want to live, speak nicely."
Wan Zilang glanced at Qiu Ning with a look of grievance. When he was about to speak, his peripheral vision caught sight of Gu Li's gloomy face, and his expression suddenly changed.
Gu Li?
It turns out that the person who attacked him just now was Gu Li?
Wan Zilang immediately frowned and complained to Qiu Ning:
"Xiao Aning, why are you with Master Gu? You..."
"How did you end up provoking this evil spirit?"
Wan Zilang's gossipy eyes swept back and forth between the two of them.
Qiu Ning felt a little embarrassed in front of everyone and changed the subject, avoiding the main point: "Don't meddle in my affairs. You haven't told me why you are here? Didn't you eat anything at the banquet?"
Seeing that she was unwilling to answer, Wan Zilang tactfully did not ask any further questions. Instead, he patted his butt, stood up, and replied:
"It's just that... Never mind, I get so angry just thinking about it.
But speaking of it, this matter also has something to do with you."
Qiu Ning looked confused and pointed at himself, "Me?"
"That's right, Qiu Shaoheng, your elder brother, do you think it has anything to do with you?"
Hearing Wan Zilang suddenly mention his brother, Qiu Ning actually became interested. She asked the waiter to change to a larger private room, and then invited Wan Zilang and others to sit together.
As for Gu Li, Qiu Ning automatically put her aside for the time being.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
After taking a sip of hot tea, Wan Zilang felt much warmer and began to tell his story.
The thing is, Wan Zilang and his friends also attended the birthday party of the wife of Duke Chengguo, and they also met Qiu Shaoheng.
A group of spirited young men were reciting poetry and composing music by the lake in the back garden of the Duke's Mansion when, unexpectedly, a pretty girl in a lake-blue dress suddenly burst into the group. She looked as if she had lost her way or had suddenly sprained her ankle. She was carrying a flower basket, the petals of which had been scattered all over the floor.
Imagine that a young lady in her prime accidentally walks into the middle of a group of young men, who are asking for help with tearful eyes, asking if there is any kind-hearted young man who can help find her maid.
Wan Zilang often lingered among flowers, and he could see through such a trick almost at a glance. This woman must have deliberately broken into this place, but he didn't know what her purpose was.
At this time, there naturally came a playboy with bad intentions who said he was willing to help the girl get out of here. As a result, just when the other party was about to put his hand on the girl's hand, Qiu Shaoheng appeared.
He first dismissed the dandy young man, claiming that he also happened to be leaving here, so he might as well take the girl with him.
In order to protect the woman's innocence, Qiu Shaoheng broke off a branch in public, held one end himself, and held the other end in the girl's hand.
"The ground here is not easy to walk on. Girl, hold on to this wooden stick. I will take you out right away."
Wan Zilang was afraid that Qiu Shaoheng was being plotted against, so he tried to persuade him.
"Brother Shaoheng, today is the banquet for the wife of Duke Chengguo, and men and women are separated. Don't you find it strange that this girl suddenly appears here alone?"
"Also, I don't know this girl very well. I don't know her name, and which master's house she belongs to?"
Wan Zilang originally wanted to warn Qiu Shaoheng not to fall into someone else's trap, so he inquired about the girl's identity.
But for some reason, this girl just kept shaking her head with tears in her eyes, and looked at Qiu Shaoheng with a pair of pitiful eyes, as if she had been badly bullied.
Qiu Shaoheng thought of Wan Zilang's reputation and was worried that the beauty would be offended, so he declined Wan Zilang's kindness.
"Master Wan, there's no need to assume the worst of everyone. This girl clearly stumbled into this place by mistake, and seeing you all were frightened, I'll send her out right away. Please do as you please."
After Qiu Shaoheng finished speaking, he took the initiative to hand the wooden stick to Ji Ruyun, indicating that the other party should keep up with his pace.
Ji Ruyun slowly got up from the ground and limped away following Qiu Shaoheng.
Wan Zilang was worried, so he sent someone to follow him to find out the other party's identity.
As a result, when the two of them just turned around a rockery, Ji Ruyun twisted her foot as if by accident and rushed straight towards Qiu Shaoheng in front of her.
Qiu Shaoheng was caught off guard, and because he was worried about the man's foot injury, he didn't dare to push him away. So he just hugged him.
As a result, this hug happened to be seen by the guests passing by nearby, and everyone came over to watch the show.
Seeing this, Ji Ruyun was like a frightened rabbit, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, she just hid in Qiu Shaoheng's arms.
Qiu Shaoheng had been devoted to reading books of sages all his life. He had never seen such a scene before and was immediately at a loss.
Later, it was Duke Cheng who stepped forward and called the servants of the mansion to settle Ji Ruyun down first. After inquiring, he found out that this girl was actually Ji Ruyun, the legitimate daughter of Ji Bohou.
I accidentally got lost while attending the banquet today, so I ended up in that forest.
However, the other party had already had physical contact with Qiu Shaoheng in public, which made the matter a bit tricky.
Duke Chengguo quickly called the parents of both parties, namely Ji Bohou and Qiu Xiang, to ask them what they planned.
As a result, Ji Ruyun blushed and said in front of the elders of both sides that she had always admired the talent of the young master of the Qiu family and was willing to devote herself to Qiu Shaoheng.
