This blind date was clearly arranged for me, why does it seem to be wrong? I think Ye is more interested in Zhu Ying than me. Could it be that this girl loves beauty more than gentlemen

Zhang Chen wanted to find someone to talk about this strange feeling in his heart, but he was only surrounded by Ah Liu, a fool who didn't understand romance, and Zhu Hong and other followers who didn't go downstairs with him and didn't know if they heard what Ye said. Even if he couldn't hold it in any longer, he couldn't expose his shortcomings to these people, so he was very uncomfortable.

But Zhu Ying actually accompanied Ye shopping in a serious manner. On the several prosperous streets that had just emerged near the Xinglong Tea House, the two beauties, each with their own unique charm, would go to a store from time to time with great interest, and then look at the valuable and invaluable goods and comment on them. From time to time, they would call Ah Liu over to give them some advice, and even ask for his opinion from time to time.

God knows Zhang Chen was so confused that his head was a mess. He had no idea what he was looking at. His answer was just two dry sentences, "Okay, not bad, as long as you think it's good..." He just felt like a stupid goose!

If he had a backbone, he would have walked away immediately and never contacted her again. Anyway, he had not fallen in love with Ye at first sight. He just thought she was interesting and not pretending to be cold and noble. He left. But he always felt that it was too disrespectful to Zhu Ying. In addition, the two women were polite to him, but Ah Liu looked at him strangely.

As he walked, when Zhang Chen came to his senses again, he found that he was actually in a weapons shop! Nowadays, many weapons are controlled items, so this kind of shop is of course very rare in the capital. Although his family's Duke is not a military officer but a civil officer, there are still many treasures in the mansion. So he glanced at them and saw that the swords, bows and arrows were ordinary, so he didn't care.

But the next moment, he saw the little girl with a red hairband running up to Ah Liu holding a bow as if she had found a treasure, and then she asked in a chattering voice: "Sixth Master, Sixth Master, Miss Zhu said that you have a good eye, can you help me take a look at this slingshot?"

Zhang Chen almost popped his eyes out. It wasn't because the little girl who had just fought with Ah Liu was now obviously trying to curry favor with him, but because... What he showed to Ah Liu was basically just a bow, okay? It had nothing to do with the slingshots used to shoot sparrows or any other small gadgets when playing!

However, to his surprise, Ah Liu actually took the bow, looked at it over and over for a long time, and finally answered the question irrelevantly: "Are you really using a slingshot as a weapon? Why not a bow? The projectiles used in slingshots are very expensive if they are made of gold and iron, and they are not cheap either if they are made of clay. The most important thing is that they can only be used at close range. They are far less lethal than bows and arrows at long range!"

Zhang Chen suddenly thought of the battle between Cuiyun and Liu, and that Liu was indeed using a bow and arrow. He thought that this answer was not strange at all. However, when he went closer to take a look, he found that in the middle of the bowstring of the so-called slingshot was a small bag, and he could even see some bullets inside. He understood it now.
