"Miss Miss..."
In a nice little courtyard. A woman in purple quickly ran in from the courtyard gate, with a surprised expression on her face, and shouted loudly.
"What's the matter? Surprised, did that bastard come again?!" Another young woman walked out of the room, looking at the purple-clothed woman who just ran in with her beautiful eyes.
"No..." The woman in purple shook her head, took a few breaths, and her earrings made a crisp sound, "Do you still remember the man we saw in Tianxing Pavilion the day before yesterday?!"
"Tianxing Pavilion?!" Miss Liu frowned, "You mean the young man who bought Hantie?!"
This pair of master and servant is Su Qin and Xiao Hua that Xia Yan met in Tianxing Pavilion.
"Yes, yes!" Xiaohua nodded her head continuously, "It's that young man. Miss, that person is in the living room with the master right now, you can't guess why he came!"
"Why did he come? He bought stones in Tianxing Pavilion, but he came to my house to buy fabrics?!" Su Qin turned her beautiful eyes and ran her fingers lightly across her hair.
In the eyebrows, a faint sorrow did not dissipate.
She has been worrying about that for the past few days, and has made up her mind that no matter what, she will not marry that bastard.
Song Yuxin's reputation in Ziye City is extremely bad, even worse than Xi Qiushui's reputation in Ziye City. In Ziye City, some girls didn't even dare to let Song Yuxin see them. Su Li heard the rumors. There are countless girls spoiled by this Song Yuxin.
She would never marry such a person no matter what!
"No! I just heard from the guard that he is a mercenary, and he came here only after accepting the mission issued by the master in the mercenary hall!" Xiaohua giggled.
"What?!" Su Qin was startled, and opened her mouth slightly, "How old is he? He's a mercenary? Xiao Hua, don't get me wrong!"
"Miss, how could I be wrong! How many handsome young masters are there in Purple Leaf City?!" Xiao Hua hurriedly said.
"It's been three days since my father released the mission, and none of the mercenaries has accepted it. He actually accepted the mission!" Seeing Xiao Hua's certainty, Su Qin's heart moved, "Let's go, let's go and have a look!"
The two women walked out of this exquisite courtyard and walked towards the reception hall in front.
…
Xia Yan followed Su Li to the living room of the Su family. Su Li let people watch tea and sighed from time to time.
"Master Su, why are you sighing again and again?!" Xia Yan asked with a smile.
Su Li smiled wryly, and instead of answering, asked, "What's your surname, sir?"
Xia Yan replied: "My name is Xia Yan, and I have just arrived in Ziye City for a few days."
"It turns out that Mr. Xia Yan just arrived in Ziye City, no wonder!" Su Li shook his head and said, "To tell you the truth, I have released this mission in the mercenary hall for three days, but Mr. Xia Yan, you were the first to accept it." A mercenary for this mission."
"Mr. Xia Yan, maybe you don't know the special nature of this mission." Su Li stood up. Walked a few steps in the hall, "The Song family is one of the four major families in Ziye City. Although my Su family has some family background, it cannot be compared with the Song family. The Song family has a son named Song Yuxin, and his conduct is extremely bad."
"A few days ago, this Song Yuxin accidentally saw the little girl Su Qin, and tried everything possible to get close to her. Just four days ago, he came to propose marriage to me in person." Su Li sighed helplessly.
"Don't say my little girl doesn't want to marry him, even if she wants to, I won't let her marry Song Yuxin!" Su Li suddenly turned serious and said in a deep voice.
Xia Yan nodded secretly, this Su Li did have some backbone, unlike ordinary businessmen.
"Unfortunately, the Song family is very powerful. Although I politely refused, Song Yuxin did not give up. He said that three days later, at noon tomorrow, people will compete with people from my Su family. If the Su family can win , then he will let go of his little daughter Qin'er. If the Su family cannot win tomorrow's competition, I will marry Qin'er to him!" Su Li's voice was full of helplessness.
Xia Yan can also imagine that Song Yuxin must be aggressive.
Although the Su family is rich, compared to the Song family, they simply cannot compete. If Song Yuxin really insisted, Su Li might not be able to stop her.
You know, Song Yuxin's father is a temple deacon!
The deacon of the temple has more power than the general head of the temple!
"I have no choice but to agree first. If I didn't agree at that time, he would send someone to do it forcibly. After that, I announced this task in the mercenary hall, hoping that some mercenaries could help the Su family! But ..." Su Li shook his head dejectedly.
His body trembled slightly, thinking of the upcoming competition tomorrow, he couldn't calm down.
The people Song Yuxin sent must have strong strength.
Su Li suddenly raised his head and looked at Xia Yan: "Mr. Xia Yan, thank you very much for accepting this task. However, the Song family is powerful, I am afraid that if you accept this task, even if you cannot win tomorrow, you will offend the Song family. How about , I will send some money to Mr. Xia Yan now, Mr. Xia Yan, please give up this mission!"
Su Li obviously didn't have any confidence in Xia Yan. Although it is not stated explicitly, it can be seen in words and deeds.
He did this because he didn't want to hurt Xia Yan. Since there is no hope, why bother to implicate an innocent person
Hearing what Su Li said, Xia Yan knew what he was thinking. but. Xia Yan was not angry, but secretly said in his heart, "This Su Li is a good person. I should help the Su family."
Xia Yan shook his head and said: "Since I have accepted this mission, I will not give up easily! My identity is a mercenary!"
Su Li was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Okay! Mr. Xia Yan, I'm going to have a drink with you tonight."
"Father!"
At this time, a gust of fragrant wind rushed from outside the door, and the figure flashed, and there were already two more people in the hall, it was Su Qin and the maid Xiaohua.
Xia Yan smiled slightly, as a greeting.
"It's really you?!" Seeing Xia Yan, Su Qin's bright eyes flickered and said.
"Qin'er, do you know Mr. Xia Yan?!" Su Li asked suspiciously.
"Yes, I went to Tianxing Pavilion to buy cold iron the day before yesterday, and this gentleman also bought cold iron. He said he needed it urgently, so I gave it to her." Su Qin nodded, and then turned to look at Xia Yan, " Unexpectedly. You are still a mercenary!"
"Thank you Miss Su Qin!" Xia Yan said with a smile.
"What a coincidence! Mr. Xia Yan, this is the little girl Qin'er!" Su Li smiled and introduced, "Qin'er, this is Mr. Xia Yan, the mercenary in the mercenary hall!"
"Mr. Xia Yan, are you a first-class mercenary?!" Su Qin said beautifully, frowning.
Xia Yan nodded and replied, "Yes, I am a mercenary who just registered the day before yesterday. This mission is my first mission after becoming a mercenary."
"Ah?!" the servant girl Xiao Hua exclaimed in surprise, "Then how do you deal with that bastard Song Yuxin?!"
"I'll do my best!" Xia Yan said with a smile.
"I see, your strength is not much stronger than mine." Su Qin looked up and down at Xia Yan with beautiful eyes. Lightly parting her vermilion lips to reveal her white teeth, she said.
"Hehe, I'm a cultivator!" Xia Yan laughed secretly in his heart.
Thinking of Su Qin's fierce look in Tianxing Pavilion the day before yesterday, he wanted to laugh.
If Song Yuxin really married Su Qin, it would be really dangerous to be attacked by Su Qin without paying attention.
"How old are you? Even if you have been practicing since birth, you have only practiced for more than ten years. Can you be the opponent of those around Song Yuxin?!" Xiaohua wrinkled her nose and said.
"Don't be rude!" Su Li scolded.
Although he scolded him, he didn't have any hope for Xia Yan. Xia Yan is too young, and only a first-class mercenary.
Tomorrow, we can only resign ourselves to fate!
"Hehe, maybe there will be a turning point!" Xia Yan said with a smile.
"Oh, I hope so!" Su Li nodded and said.
After chatting with the Su family's father and daughter for a while, Su Li asked someone to prepare a dinner party and had a drink with Xia Yan. Then, someone brought Xia Yan to the guest room.
Although the Su Family Mansion is not big, there are still many vacant rooms.
The Su family seems to have only two owners, one is Su Li and the other is Su Qin. As for Su Qin's mother, Xia Yan didn't see it, nor did she inquire.
After a night of nothing to say, Xia Yan used the Lingluo mental method to absorb the spiritual power of the night, and woke up from the meditation the next morning, exhaling a breath of turbid air, feeling refreshed.
After washing up, Xia Yan left the room and performed a set of sword skills casually.
There are at least a hundred kinds of sword skills that Xia Yan knows. With just one hand, one can practice a set of sword skills.
"Mr. Xia Yan!"
After a set of sword skills practice was over, Xia Yan saw Su Qin approaching as soon as he put away his long sword.
"Miss Su Qin, what's the matter?!" Xia Yan asked with a smile.
Su Qin rolled her eyes and nodded, but she didn't speak immediately, but lowered her head and pondered for a while. She was dressed in a beige long dress with a slim figure.
"Mr. Xia Yan, you should stop competing with Song Yuxin's people, you are not their opponent." After a while, Su Qin spoke. Persuade Xia Yan again.
Xia Yan said: "It hasn't started yet, how does Miss know that I am not their opponent?!"
Su Qin was anxious, frowned and said: "You are really not their opponent, so it is better not to fight. I have already made up my mind, and I will marry Song Yuxin."
Xia Yan was taken aback for a moment, then said in astonishment: "Miss has changed her mind?!"
Su Qin nodded and said, "Yes, I've made up my mind."
There was a trace of determination on her face. Xia Yan's heart moved. He saw Su Qin's reaction in Tianxing Pavilion that day. Of course, he would not believe that her thoughts had completely changed in the past two days. Moreover, the look she showed when she spoke at this time was obviously abnormal.
"Miss Su Qin, since I have accepted this task, I will definitely try my best to complete it. This... But my first task is very important to me. No matter what you think, you can decide after noon today. "Xia Yan took a breath, "As for now, miss, don't think too much. This task may not be as difficult as you think!"
Hearing what Xia Yan said, Su Qin sighed quietly, and stared at Xia Yan with her beautiful eyes.
Suddenly he chuckled and asked, "Mr. Xia Yan, are you married yet?!"
Xia Yan was slightly taken aback, and said incomprehensibly, "Not yet!"
"Well, Mr. Xia Yan, if you really can win, I will marry you!" Su Qin turned around and left quickly.
Xia Yan looked at Su Qin's back, frowned slightly, and his whole body shook...
