Chapter 56: Sister Wansu



Chapter 56: Sister Wansu

Mu Wansu returned to the Green-sun Tribe alone two days ago, trying to pry into some news about the “Young Sword King”, Shie Yutang. And the Green-sun Tribe was undoubtedly a best choice for this.

Mu Wansu believed that Shie Yutang would also choose Green-sun Tribe as a temporary foothold when he came to the Three Thousand Mountains. So she could easily figure out when he arrived at the Three Thousand Mountains by enquiring if anyone had seen him recently.

And it was all Shi Shuan’s idea.

Mu Wansu was confused as she just couldn’t understand why her Big Childe would be so anxious to meet Shie Yutang. Was it simply for witnessing the uniqueness of the Sword Scripture Invincible? Or her Childe believed that Shie Yutang had already found the Peerless Treasure?

Understanding it or not, Mu Wansu had to take actions fast. The thing was she had been back to the Green-sun Tribe for two whole days, yet so far no information about Shie Yutang had been found, which really made her a bit helpless.

What a man Shie Yutang was! As secretive as he usually was in his movement and trace, it would never be easy to nose into any news about him.

Luckily, just this evening, Mu Wansu got the news that a golden flame beast, vanished for hundreds of years, appeared by a river about thousands of miles away from the Green-sun Tribe, which was probably closely related with the Peerless Treasure.

And according to the news, that beast killed the eldest son of Liu Wujun, the governor of southwest province in the empire. A breaking news that could set off an uproar!

Mu Wansu had decided to find out the whereabouts of this golden flame beast first thing tomorrow.

But what surprised her most was that, on this very night, she met that cheeky boy again when she planned to discuss something with Yan Zhen, manager of the Keystone Business in Green-sun Tribe.

At this moment, standing far away and watching Yan Zhen questioning Lin Xun, who now looked exactly like a lamb to be slaughtered in the middle of the crowd, Mu Wansu somehow felt overjoyed.

You bad boy finally had a tough time!

Mu Wansu earnestly hoped Yan Zhen would teach this brazen boy a good lesson.

But as soon as the idea came to her, she immediately noticed that the little bastard was looking at her from a distance.

Sensing his gaze , Mu Wansu immediately planned to dodge away, but it was too late.

Waving his hand, that bare-faced boy exclaimed with surprise, “Sister Wansu, what a coincidence! Please help me explain to them how I got the token. Brother Shi Shuan never told me that I would be treated like this at Keystone Business even with his token.”

Touching her forehead, Mu Wansu just felt so speechless. How could this boy be so unashamed? Calling her so affectionately would really lead others to believe that they were intimate.

Mu Wansu would very much like to pretend that she didn’t know him and walk straight away. But the token was a gift from her Big Childe. Should she really do that, she dared not to face her Childe when he knew it.

What to do?

Mu Wansu hesitated. If possible, she’d really pull the little bastard by his ears to vent her anger. He was really irritating to ask for help so deservedly!

Puzzled by such a scene, Yan Zhen and others present all looked far away and immediately saw Mu Wansu standing afar.

Wearing a black dress as usual, she had a delicate and attractive face, her hair in an elegant bun, her figure extremely graceful and her black eyebrows straight, exuding an air sharp like a blade. Just like a wild rose blooming on a cliff, she was enchanting but dangerous with thorns.

Yan Zhen’s pupils contracted out of surprise at the sight of Mu Wansu. He asked in a bit of a daze, “Miss Wansu, you…know this boy?”

Others were confused too.

Sighing helplessly in heart, Mu Wansu took elegant steps to the crowd and said casually, “This token is indeed a gift from the Big Childe.”

Though not directly answering the question, her words conveyed an obvious idea.

It immediately cleared all the doubts and suspicions Yan Zhen previously had. As the manager of the Keystone Business in Donglin Town, Mu Wansu enjoyed a position that he himself could not compare with.

More importantly, Yan Zhen was clear that she had been doing something important for the Childe. How could she say anything spurious?

“Seems like I really wronged this young boy.” Thinking that, Yan Zhen now looked at Lin Xun differently, eyes full of implication. Why the Childe would gift this boy a token so important was unknown. But he must have done this for a reason.

But the expressions of the nicely dressed middle-aged man et al. altered dramatically. This young boy was actually a friend of the Big Childe? They dared not even to think about what would be waiting for them should their Childe know what happened today…

The nicely dressed middle-aged man, especially, couldn’t help regretting being a bit rude just now. But how the hell could he know that this shabby boy would have such a shocking background?

Just then, he saw Lin Xun turning around and looking at him. Getting anxious, he thought that Lin Xun was going to settle scores with him.

Quite unexpectedly, he saw Lin Xun cupping his hand and apologizing, “Please excuse me for being impetuous. I should assume primary responsibility for it. Uncle, please do not take it to heart.”

The middle-aged man was in a daze and replied subconsciously, “Never mind. It was just a mistake. Childe, please don’t take it personal either.”

Seeing that, Yan Zhen waved his hand and ordered, “You all leave now.”

With these words, he led Lin Xun and Mu Wansu to a private room along a long corridor and arranged seats for them.

“May I know your name, my Childe?” Yan Zhen asked politely, getting quite enthusiastic now. With a gentle and cultivated appearance, he always wore a smile when talking, feeling like a breath of fresh air.

“Senior, you’re too courteous. My name is Lin Xun.” Cupping his hands, Lin Xun replied with a warm smile.

Mu Wansu sat alone on the other side, and studied a delicate teacup in her hand absently, seeming completely indifferent to the conversation.

Though surprised at her attitude, Yan Zhen continued, “Childe Lin, it is all our fault. Please excuse us for being inconsiderate.”

Hearing that, Lin Xun behaved even more humble. He stood up immediately, cupped one hand in the other and replied apologetically, “Senior, please don’t mention it. The primary fault is on me; how could I blame others?”

Yan Zhen was a bit confused about Lin Xun’s intentions. This boy had been so tough in the hall, but why so humble now?

Thinking that, Yan Zhen said, “May I ask why you didn’t take out the token at the very beginning? If so, this mistake could probably be prevented…”

Before he even finished his sentence, Lin Xun answered with some embarrassment, “You may not know that, in a critical condition like that, I was not sure about what this token was for. So I acted tough, thinking that you would surely come out as long as I stirred up some trouble.”

Yan Zhen went speechless. At least this boy was honest about all his wicked ideas. A boy of good conduct.

He unknowingly had a good opinion of him. Such wisdom was not commonly seen in a boy of 13 or 14 years old.

The thing was this boy was quite resilient and tactical. If not for what he saw, Yan Zhen would suspect that Lin Xun was an extremely sophisticated adult.

“Is it really what you think?” Mu Wansu asked all of a sudden, her beautiful eyes staring sharply at Lin Xun like a blade.

She could tell it instantly that this brat had been talking nonsense from the moment he entered the room. He looked humble and talked in a way that no one could pick holes. What a cunning boy!

More importantly, Mu Wansu knew it well that Lin Xun would never make such a big noise publicly simply for luring Yan Zhen out. He must be secretly planning something.

Just then, she saw Lin Xun sighing with a forced smile, “Dear sister Wansu, this is the first time I have walked out of a remote village. If, by any chance, I have done something improper out of my ignorance, please do not hesitate to point it out.”

Saying that, he saluted earnestly toward Mu Wansu.

Mu Wansu knew that he was just acting, but it would be too ungenerous of her to blame more with his perfect conduct.

“You little brat is getting foxier than ever.” Much dismayed in heart, Mu Wansu said with a charming smile, “Well, it’s over. Don’t mention it again. Besides, you’re the one our Childe values. Even real mistakes can be forgiven.”

“Haha, Miss Wansu is right. Say no more of this matter.” Yan Zhen laughed, “By the way, Childe Lin, may I know your purpose of visiting Keystone Business?”

Hearing that, Lin Xun suddenly looked serious. He cupped his hands and said, “To be honest, I’m here for two important matters.”

“Please go ahead.” Yan Zhen smiled, stroking his beard.

“For one thing, I’m here to trade some goods for daily supplies on behalf of villagers in Feiyun. Meanwhile, I sincerely hope to reach a trade agreement with Keystone Business.” Lin Xun said quickly, “Senior, you may not know it. Feiyun Village now can provide an abounding amount of Feiyun Fire-copper, which, I believe, Keystone Business also needs. Therefore, I hope we can sign a trade agreement to collect and trade in Feiyun Fire-copper, developing a lasting way to make money for Feiyun Village”

Raising his eyebrows, Yan Zhen asked, “Feiyun Fire-copper?”

“Yes, it is. Sister Wansu and your Big Childe have also seen it when they visited Feiyun Village last time.” Lin Xun smiled and involved Mu Wansu in this matter with just one sentence.

She glared at Lin Xun and finally nodded, “He is right.”

Hearing that, Yan Zhen rested assured and smiled, “Well, I can call the shots on this matter. It’s a win-win agreement.”

“Thanks for your help,” smiled Lin Xun.

Now the agreement was made, whoever coveted the Feiyun Fire-copper would be against the Keystone Business.

Meanwhile, Keystone Business would not cheat villagers from Feiyu because of his relationship with Shi Shuan. So Lin Xun wouldn’t have to worry about the villagers even when he left someday.

Moreover, selling Feiyun Fire-copper could bring them sustainable incomes to better their lives, saving them the trouble of worrying about livelihood.

Indeed a way of killing two birds with one stone. Lin Xun had planned all this long before he came to the Green-sun Tribe. It was such a relief to see it successfully done.

“Childe, may I know the second matter?” asked Yan Zhen.

After a glance at Mu Wansu, Lin Xun looked at Yan Zhen and forced a wry smile.

Simply looking at his expression, Mu Wansu got a sinking feeling that this little brat would definitely take the opportunity to ask for something really tricky! She didn’t even have to hear what he was going to say!
