Ci Jinzhi Chapter 347

There were quite a few people in the lobby of the bookstore. At this time, they were either looking directly over, or glancing here quietly from the corner of their eyes.

 Zhang Xu frowned: "Is there a convenient place to talk?"

"Mr. Zhang, come with me." Xin You said this and turned around to walk to the guest room.

 Everyone moved their eyes as she moved, until their sight was blocked by the door curtain.

“Mr. Zhang, tell me.” Xin You sat down.

 Zhang Xu sat down without ceremony and asked straight to the point: "Miss Xin, do you still remember Dai Ze?"

Xin You had already guessed that he was going to ask about Dai Ze, so she smiled slightly and said, "Of course I remember."

"Dai Ze regards you as an unparalleled master. Is that your intention?" Zhang Xu asked Xin You, staring closely at him.

Ever since he knew Xinyou's true identity, this question had been stuck in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel unhappy about it.

 “I also have a question for Mr. Zhang.”

 Zhang Xu raised his eyebrows: "I asked first."

"But this is your second question. I haven't answered the first question."

“First question—” Zhang Xu's face darkened when he thought that the first question he asked was whether he still remembered Dai Ze. “What kind of question is that?”

 That was a deliberate attempt on his part to ridicule her.

Xin You said in a cold tone: "For me, yes."

"Okay, you can ask." Zhang Xu was too lazy to bother with a question.

 He will go back to the Imperial College later.

“Did you hit Duan Yunlang?”

 Zhang Xu's eyes flashed with astonishment, obviously he didn't expect to be asked this question.

The girl opposite was sitting in a relaxed posture, showing a careless laziness, with a faint sneer hanging on the corner of her mouth, as if she was sure that he did not dare to admit it.

That faint sneer was like a spark, igniting Zhang Xu's temper.

 “So what?”

Xin You curled her lips: "Young Master Zhang is quite magnanimous. I thought you didn't dare to admit it." The method of provoking generals is really useful for a **** like Zhang Xu who is used to using his status to oppress others.

“What a joke, what am I afraid of admitting?” Zhang Xu sneered.

Xin You nodded: "Just admit it."

 “Then it's your turn to answer the question just now.”

"Dai Ze? In order to find out the truth about my mother's murder, I really intend to make friends with you."

 “Sure enough, you took advantage of him!”

Xin You sneered: "Mr. Zhang is a just person, and he came to fight for his friend's injustice. Did the Guchangbo Mansion fall because I took advantage of him? I was the one who caused him to be sent to the border area? Mr. Zhang doesn't even know what is the cause and what is the effect. I don't know, why do you have the nerve to question me?”

"you-"

Xin You interrupted Zhang Xu: "What about you? Why did you hit Duan Yunlang?"

"He should be beaten. He dares to show off his face in front of me and doesn't know what he is." Zhang Xu stared at Xin You's bright face and blurted out evil words, "Miss Xin cares so much, could it be that she has been his cousin for a long time?" Yeah, I thought I was feeling emotional—ouch—"

 A scream sounded.

The scholars who were staying in the lobby heard the scream and all looked towards the guest room.

 Following this was Zhang Xu's furious voice: "You actually poured tea on me—"

There was a crackling sound inside, and a figure rushed out.

Before anyone in the lobby could see clearly, the people behind him rushed out and kicked the people in front.

 Zhang Xu threw himself forward and fell to the ground.

Xin You didn't stop and continued to kick hard.

 There was silence in the lobby, and everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at the girl who beat Zhang Xu violently. He Yushi stepped in with one foot, and his raised foot was hanging in the air.

Originally, Yushi He would not come here two days in a row, but he didn't see Miss Zhu yesterday, and when he got to the office today...ahem, the little donkey ran this way, and he couldn't even pull it back.

Zhang Xu wanted to get up and fight back, but he was kicked down as soon as he propped himself up. He was so dizzy from the pain that he had no power to fight back.

 For a time, only his cry of pain could be heard far away, while the stunned crowd even held their breaths, let alone making a sound.

 Those who did not trust their own self-control also covered their mouths.

　　What if Kou makes a sound, oh, no, Miss Xin kicks him instead?

 Until the sound of footsteps sounded, many eyes turned to the door.

　　It was He Yushi who put down the foot he had raised.

　　It won't work if I don't put it down, I can't stand on one leg anymore.

 As Yushi He made a noise, the strange scene of a group of people in the lobby silently watching Zhang Xu being beaten finally changed.

Liu Zhou was the first to run over: "Master, please have a rest."

Shopkeeper Hu also advised: "Don't break the person, your hands and feet will hurt."

 People don't hear something right.

Is the old shopkeeper worried about the pain in his hands and feet from being beaten, or is he worried about the pain in his hands and feet from being beaten?

Xinyou stopped.

At this time, two students from the Imperial College rushed in: "Brother Zhang, I heard that you were beaten by Miss Xin—"

 Seeing Zhang Xu's miserable state clearly, the two of them suddenly lost their voice.

Who is the pig head lying on the ground?

Xin You looked at the two of them expressionlessly. She had the impression that these two supervisors were Zhang Xu's followers.

　　I don't know whether it was because Zhang Xu looked too miserable or the girl's eyes were too cold, so they both subconsciously took a step back.

 Zhang Xu struggled to raise his swollen head and yelled at the two of them: "Why don't you help me up!"

 The two followers woke up from a dream and ran over to help the man.

 “Hey, be gentle!” Zhang Xu struggled to get up, his legs shaking with pain, and stared at Xin You with a pair of black eyes, “Wait, wait!”

Xin You dusted off the non-existent dust on his body: "What am I waiting for?"

“Do you think you can hit anyone casually as a princess? I'm going to tell my grandfather!”

Xinyou smiled contemptuously: "If you can't beat me, tell your elders at home? How admirable."

 Zhang Xu was stunned for a moment. Nothing could be seen on his swollen face, but he was actually stunned by these words.

If a girl who has never beaten a girl goes back and tells the adults, her face will be disgraced if word spreads.

"Anyway, just wait for me!" Zhang Xu limped out with his body weight on a follower, vowing in his heart to find an opportunity to teach this vicious girl a lesson just like he did to Duan Yunlang.

As for the idea of ​​telling Zhang Shoufu, he gave up.

Xin You watched Zhang Xu leave with cold eyes and swept away everyone in the lobby.

Even though they were extremely curious about the follow-up, the calligraphers quickly ran away, leaving Yushi He alone with a confused look on his face.

 Normally, as an official, what he saw today is what he should have written. But if I do this, Miss Zhu will kick me out of Qingsong Bookstore again, right?

Well, he decided to pretend that he had never been there. It was just two children fighting, nothing serious.

 He Yushi turned around and walked away silently.

With only one of his own people left in the bookstore, shopkeeper Hu couldn't help but express his worry: "My boss, even if Mr. Zhang doesn't tell his family, so many people saw it today, and the news that you hit him will soon spread."

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, and don't worry about whether it will spread. There is a bit of a mess in the reception room. Please clean it up and I will go into the palace."

 “Enter the palace?”

“Well, let's go to the palace and complain.”

 When Xin You left, Liu Zhou asked uncertainly: "Shopkeeper, are you going to file a complaint?"

 Is it done backwards?
