C22 Li's Emergency

"Someone is following us?" Chen Mu Mu was moved, he wanted to turn around and take a look, but he endured it. He quickly followed Lu Jinfeng and hid behind a stall by the side of the road.

Just as they hid, a youth dressed in plain clothes hurried over from where they had been standing just a moment ago.

"There's actually someone following us, Lu Jinfeng your hearing is really sharp." Chen Mu Mu Mu praised.

"That's not the point." Lu Jinfeng imitated her tone, "Could it be that you're not surprised about why someone is following us?"

"He must have committed a crime. If he didn't provoke him, how could there be someone following him?" Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu opened his mouth coldly, but there was no trace of panic on his face.

"You're quite free." Lu Jinfeng saw that she was not flustered at all, and smiled: Why don't we make a guess, who exactly is following us?

"Not following us, but following you." Chen Mu Mu retorted.

"Me?" Lu Jinfeng was slightly startled, his eyes moved, but it was unknown what he was thinking, "Why not you?! You have a high chance of being followed for offending that strange mother and son."

"There's no need for that. I've already made an agreement with her that we would meet in a month, and she still has something to ask of me. She's following me now and isn't afraid of me not saving her man if I discover her." Chen Mu Mu denied it, "That woman is a smart person."

"She's not that smart. It's strange that you should have less to do with her." Lu Jinfeng reminded as he returned to his previous topic, "I rarely go out to town and have never offended anyone. Why would someone follow me and want to harm me?"

"The blue face is a disaster." Chen Mu Mu pointed at his scratching face. "He looks like a fox. Maybe he's been chosen by some foreign minister and wants to capture him as his concubine."

"Chen Mu Mu, I'm a man." Lu Jinfeng's face darkened, "Be more serious."

"I've always been very serious. Let's not talk about anything else. Think about it, how many things did you cause along the way because of your face?" Chen Mu said.

Lu Jinfeng thought for a while, then shook his head: "I didn't notice it, it's just that in the past, when I was walking on the streets, I would've been thrown by some people, but now they're all gone."

"You are so easy to please." The fortune-teller Daoist and the medicine hall's Mo Qian's expression changed when they saw Lu Jinfeng's face. Maybe Lu Jinfeng didn't notice, but she did. Even though this world was small, there were many male gods that were handsome. Taoists and Doctor Mo could be considered to have seen and experienced many things, so they couldn't just look at a man because he was a bit more handsome.

The biggest possibility was that Lu Jinfeng had bumped into someone else.

Although this reason was pretty nonsensical, it was not impossible. Besides, other than his current face, there was not a single glimmer of light on Lu Jinfeng's body that could cause others to be stunned by what they saw.

Chen Mu Mu told Lu Jinfeng about his own analysis, causing Lu Jinfeng to be speechless for a moment, then laughed at himself: "Looks like that guy who looks like me is very famous, just because of his face, he pushed me into the fire pit."

"Maybe it really is a fire pit." Chen Mu saw him getting closer and closer to him, and couldn't help but pinch him. "Maybe that person owed a lot of money to the Daoist and the Doctor Mo, so they wanted to run away. That's why they wanted to collect their debts with you."

"Your imagination is really rich." Lu Jinfeng did not think so. If it was really because of the debt, the two would have urged him to return it immediately.

Chen Mu Mu Mu was still on his face, tickling others to the point that they couldn't help laughing. Lu Jinfeng was silent for a while, looking coldly at her: "Chen Mu Mu, have you touched it enough?"

"Nope." "Not bad," Chen Mu Mu replied subconsciously.

That face is also mystical. The ugly bastard from yesterday couldn't bear to look at, in the blink of an eye, he became a dainty and beautiful man. After a day of being exposed to the sun and wind, not only did the skin not wrinkle, it was even smoother and more delicate, full of elasticity. The more one touched it, the more addictive it would be.

The shameless reply caused Lu Jinfeng's face to suddenly warm up. He grabbed onto her hand that was constantly making trouble for him, a little worried.

"Chen Mu Mu, your habit of caressing men whenever you see them is really bad. Women must be gentle and reserved. If this goes on, who would still dare to want you?"

What do you mean randomly touching whenever you see a man? I've met so many men in the town today, who has she touched?!

"I'm still young." Since her impression of him wasn't good, Chen Mu Mu Mu decided to keep her shamelessness to the end. "We can cross the line between men and women."

In that case, she still wanted to touch another man's face?!

Lu Jinfeng's face darkened, and became somewhat angry: "Chen Mu Mu Mu, you still dare to say that you're young? With your age, you can already marry in my village, and you've also married me."

"We didn't pay our respects, so we're naturally not husband and wife. Since we're not husband and wife, I'm still a young lady." Chen Mumu quibbled.

"You … You are hopeless. " Lu Jinfeng was so angry that he couldn't speak anymore, he threw her hand away, "If you really like me, then it's fine for you to pay respects to me."

"What?" Chen Mu Mu scratched his ears, his face filled with disbelief as he stared at Qin Wentian's rosy ears.

"I said you don't have to leave my house now." He could afford her.

"You didn't have to leave to begin with. I gave you one tael of silver for your food." Chen Mu Mu Mu said naturally, then curled his fingers and pulled his chin, he chuckled and blew: "Lu Jinfeng, I am not a woman who can walk away as you wish, since I did not want to, I will not want to in the future, I have no regrets."

Lu Jinfeng stared at her eyes that were as black as grapes. When she said those words, his gaze was deep, and he could not even see the bottom of her eyes.

I've heard that people who have such beautiful and deep eyes are often the most ruthless.

His heart skipped a beat, as if he felt a little powerless to stop it. He moved his lips for a while before letting out a hoarse voice.

"Chen Mu Mu Mu, you haven't brushed your teeth in the morning, and your breath is bad."

Do you know how to talk, how to flirt!

Chen Mu Mu Mu's jaw dropped to the ground. He was so infuriated that he lost all will to tease this beautiful man.

"That weird man has already left. Let's hurry to the town head. We can't let aunty wait too long."

"Auntie?" Lu Jinfeng was a little confused, unable to react.

"Your mother." Chen Mu Mu Mu reminded. She shamelessly called out 'Mother', but now, she could run away by herself. After she had spoken to Lu Jinfeng thoroughly, she naturally did not need to call him with such an awkward title.

"Up to you." Lu Jinfeng said, his voice was a little heavy.

Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu didn't pay any attention to him. Carrying the basket on his back, he walked towards the direction of the town's head.

The small town was not very big. After walking for a short while, they arrived at the head of the town. The old man who was pulling the cart from Xingyu Village looked around and shouted to the people that passed by, "Xingyu Village, it's our last trip. Each of you get a copper coin and leave immediately. Those who want to get on the carriage, hurry!"

Lu Jinfeng naturally recognized the old man and walked over to greet him. "Uncle Li."

"You are?" The old man looked at Lu Jinfeng doubtfully.

Lu Jinfeng's face looked completely different before he got better. Not to mention Old Lee's head, who had lowered his head twice or thrice in the same village, even his mother couldn't recognize him. Right now, it was normal to see a stranger's face.

"Uncle Li, I am Lu Jinfeng." Lu Jinfeng said politely, "Because of a small fortuitous encounter, my face has recovered."

"That's good then. It's been a while since we last met, I didn't expect you to be so handsome after your face has recovered." Old Lee's head looked at his face in shock, then his gaze landed on Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu Mu, "I heard that you were married a while back, could this be your wife?"

Chen Mu Mu Mu smirked as he looked at Lu Jinfeng.

Lu Jinfeng's eyelids twitched, as he said to Old Lee's head with a smile: "No, we have yet to pay our respects, now she is … My sister. "

The latter half of his words were a little awkward. Old Lee's head was a person who had gone through many storms and waves, and he seemed to immediately understand his unspeakable intentions, sighing lightly: "This is good too, your disease can't last much longer, it's also good to not implicate other families' young lady."

Chen Mu's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.

Can you talk, you're so old, and you're still sprinkling salt on people's wounds? You might as well just shut up and make me feel comfortable.

Lu Jinfeng's expression was also somewhat awkward, he was just about to explain that he was sick, but Old Lee's head's expression suddenly changed, and he said: "Xiao Feng, you changed your appearance, I almost forgot to tell you something, your mother told me to inform you, she has urgent matters to attend to, so she will not wait for you two."

"Is there an urgent matter for my mother to rush back to the village?" Lu Jinfeng took note of his words, a look of nervousness swept past his eyes, "Uncle Li, do you know what happened?"

Old Lee's head shook his head: "I don't know, but looking at your mother's anxious expression, it should be a big matter." He paused, "She hasn't left for more than an hour. You may be able to make it in time by my car."

"Thank you, Uncle Li." Lu Jinfeng took out two copper coins from his pocket and gave it to him, then he led Chen Mu Mu Mu to the car.

"No need for money, I know that your family is not easy to deal with." Old Lee's head stuffed the money back into Lu Jinfeng's hands.

"Uncle Li, this is what you should take. The last few times I was your car, I went to town and confiscated it. If I didn't take it this time, I would be embarrassed." Lu Jinfeng stubbornly put the copper coin back.

Seeing Lu Jinfeng's resolute expression, Old Lee's head did not say anything further and kept the copper coin into his pocket.

There were only two empty seats left on the ox-cart. After Lu Jinfeng and Chen Mu got on, Old Lee's head turned around and rushed towards Xingyu Village.

Chen Mu Mu sighed a little and said to Lu Jinfeng: "I'm just a cold person. You and your mother were widowed and orphaned, yet walking in the village was difficult. I didn't expect that there would still be people who would be good to you."

She did not have a good impression of the people of Xingyu Village, putting aside the Lu Family's few top quality goods, the villagers who had watched the gossip that hurt people yesterday had such a cheap mouth. She reckoned that they would often make trouble for Lu Jinfeng and Madam Lee, but she did not expect that when she met the old man who drove the carriage today, she would find him to be a good person.

At least, when Lu Jinfeng was ugly and poor, he didn't look down on him and let him ride on the car for free.

"Uncle Li is a good person." Maybe he was worried about the Madam Lee, Lu Jinfeng tensed up, and did not say much, and said indifferently.
