Mu Wanqing did not know that there was a confused bystander behind her. She buried her head in Song Qingshu's arms and did not dare to raise her head. There was a comfortable smell on his body. Mu Wanqing thought for a long time but did not know how to describe this unique smell. In the end, she suddenly had an idea. It turned out to be the smell of sunlight.
Smelling this reassuring smell, Mu Wanqing fell asleep unknowingly. When she woke up, she suddenly heard some messy sounds.
She secretly raised her head and found that the two of them were already in the market. Along the way, many people stood on the side and pointed at the two of them. She could not help but feel embarrassed and hurriedly complained in a low voice: "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"You're awake." Song Qingshu looked down at the woman in his arms and said with a smile, "You've just detoxified the poison. Sleeping more will help your body recover."
"So many people are watching." Seeing that he did not have the slightest intention of letting go of her, Mu Wanqing immediately pouted coquettishly.
"If they want to see, then let them see. Handsome men and beautiful women are welcomed everywhere." Song Qingha laughed.
"I didn't think you were so shameless." Mu Wanqing's face was flushed with embarrassment, but she was reluctant to leave this warm embrace, so she took out a silk scarf and covered her face. Then, she buried her head in Song Qingshu's arms again.
Song Qingshu was amused by her ostrich mentality: "Why are you hiding? It's not like we have a shameful relationship."
"I don't care. I don't want others to see me like this." Mu Wanqing replied in a muffled voice.
"Alright then. Since you don't want others to see your face, I'll accompany you." Song Qingshu smiled and took out the silver mask to cover his face. After all, his whereabouts still needed to be kept a secret.
It was strange that after covering her face, Mu Wanqing suddenly relaxed. She no longer felt uncomfortable like before. She even looked up from time to time to size up the people and things around her.
Song Qingshu found an inn. As soon as he entered, he saw the innkeeper greet him with a smile: "This must be Master Song, right?"
Mu Wanqing couldn't help but look at him in confusion. Song Qingshu was also startled. "You know me?"
The restaurant owner smiled but did not say anything. Instead, he turned his head and called for the waiter to come over. "Master Song, the Sky Room 1 has been prepared for you early in the morning. Please go upstairs with this … your wife to wash up and take a rest. We will send the dishes to your room later."
Mu Wanqing's heart was thumping wildly as she listened. She thought to herself that this person was really bad to the bone. He had clearly taken advantage of the fact that she was asleep to come here and book a room, yet he purposely took her out in a big circle … But he only booked one room, then wouldn't I have to …
Mu Wanqing's grip on Song Qingshu's clothes tightened, loosened, loosened, and tightened again. It was obvious that her heart was extremely unsettled.
Song Qingshu did not notice the change in the mood of the beauty in his arms. Instead, he said doubtfully, "Did you make a mistake? I didn't order these things."
The restaurant owner was also startled, but he looked him up and down. In the end, he said with certainty, "That's right. Previously, there was a young master who was extremely generous. He asked us to welcome a young master wearing a silver mask as a guest of honor. Isn't that young master you?"
Song Qingshu was extremely shocked. His journey to the north was extremely secretive. Even within the Golden Snake Camp, not many people knew about it. How could someone know about his whereabouts? He couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Who is that young master?"
"This …" The restaurant owner looked embarrassed. "Young master, aren't you making things difficult for me? We are doing business. How can we divulge the employer's information?"
Song Qingshu secretly sneered. If you were really so upright, you wouldn't say such things.
Taking out an ingot of silver from his bosom and handing it to the restaurant owner, Song Qingshu said in a low voice, "I am also your employer. Now you can tell me if there's any problem."
The restaurant owner laughed awkwardly and put the silver into his sleeve without leaving a trace. He said in a low voice, "That young master shouldn't be a local. I have also opened an inn in this area for more than ten years. If he was a local, I would definitely know him."
Noticing that Song Qingshu seemed to be a little impatient, the restaurant owner hurriedly added, "But that young master is obviously not an ordinary person. The material of his clothes is extremely exquisite. His every movement exudes a noble aura. It's a pity that he is a little too handsome. His lips are red and his teeth are white. Perhaps the young master of a rich family has mingled with the maids for a long time and has been stained with a lot of cosmetics …"
Song Qingshu nodded thoughtfully. "Alright, we'll go upstairs first. Prepare hot water and bring it up." With that, he carried Mu Wanqing and walked straight to the number one room in the sky.
After entering the room, there were only the two of them. Mu Wanqing was too embarrassed to let Song Qingshu carry her anymore. She struggled and jumped out of his arms. Looking at the exquisitely decorated room, she couldn't help but sigh. "I didn't expect that there would be such an elegant room in such a remote and desolate place."
Song Qingshu opened the window a slit and was scanning the situation downstairs. He couldn't help but smile faintly when he heard what she said. "The incense in the room is the best ambergris, the quilt is the most expensive Su brocade, and the tea set is also the top quality of Jingdezhen's official kiln. Even the tea leaves are Longjing before the rain. Do you think an inn in such a remote town has this kind of financial resources?"
Mu Wanqing suddenly came to her senses. "You didn't arrange all this?"
"I have important matters to attend to in the north this time. How can I have this kind of free time?" Song Qingshu replied in a bad mood.
Only then did Mu Wanqing realize that she was letting her imagination run wild. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and embarrassed. Fortunately, the other party didn't know what she was thinking just now.
"Is this a black inn?" Mu Wanqing calmed down and asked worriedly.
"Not to that extent. No black inn is willing to spend so much money." Song Qingshu closed the window and smiled slightly. "You don't have to worry. Since we're here, we'll just take things as they come. We'll wait for that mysterious person to show his tail."
Mu Wanqing nodded in trust. If she was alone, she would have left this strange place a long time ago. However, when she was by Song Qingshu's side, she felt unprecedentedly at ease.
"Uncle Song, the hot water you wanted is ready." There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Song Qingshu replied.
After the door opened, the owner of the inn directed several servants to carry in buckets of hot water and pour it into the bathtub in the room. After seeing that it was almost ready, he came in front of Song Qingshu and said with a flattering smile, "Everything in this room is brand new. You two can rest assured and use it."
Song Qingshu nodded. "Sorry to trouble you, boss."
The owner of the inn smiled and waved his hand. "No trouble, no trouble. I won't disturb you two anymore. I'll get someone to serve the food and wine later." After saying that, he carefully retreated.
When everyone left the room, Mu Wanqing couldn't help but look at the steaming bathtub in the room. She couldn't help but be dumbfounded. "You … want to take a bath?"
"It's not me. It's you." Song Qingshu looked at her with a smile.
Mu Wanqing's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously shook her head. "If you want to take a bath, you can take a bath yourself. I don't need it."
Noticing that her ears were red, Song Qingshu couldn't help but laugh. "What are you thinking about? It's just that today you were poisoned by the Soul Freezing Silver Needles and then by the poison on your sleeve dart. Although most of the poison has been detoxified, the two poisons are mixed together. There will always be some remaining in your body. If you don't force it out as soon as possible, it will harm your body in the future. That's why I prepared hot water. When your whole body is soaked in water, I will force the poison out of your body. "
Mu Wanqing knew that what he said made sense. Otherwise, she wouldn't still feel dizzy. But to take off her clothes and soak in the bathtub in front of Song Qingshu, she really couldn't do it.
"Forget it. I'm fine now. I've fully recovered." Mu Wanqing hurriedly shook her small hand and refused.
"Don't you want to hear what the consequences will be in the future if you let these poisons stay in your body?" Looking at her embarrassed appearance, how could Song Qingshu not know what she was thinking? He deliberately scared her.
"What consequences can there be?" Mu Wanqing was startled.
"These two poisons are very potent. Even if it's just a remnant, it's still very harmful to the body. Especially you women. If you're not careful, it might affect your future fertility. I don't want to be childless in the future." Song Qingshu said with a worried expression.
Mu Wanqing was originally scared into a daze. After all, it was only a vague and general idea that it was harmful to the body. In the end, when she heard the end, she couldn't help but spit. "Bah, what does it have to do with me whether you have children or not."
Song Qingshu looked at her affectionately. "Because you're the mother of my future child."
Mu Wanqing's heart pounded under his scorching gaze. She subconsciously turned her head away, pouted, and snorted: "Who wants to have a child with you? What's more, you have so many women around you. How is it possible that none of them will give you children? "
Although she said that, she couldn't get angry at all. Instead, she was at a loss for what to do because of the other party's bold words.
"Don't you want children?" Song Qingshu walked behind Mu Wanqing and gently hugged her in his arms. He whispered in her ear.
Mu Wanqing's body trembled, but she didn't push him away. She was actually very conflicted. She knew that all of this was probably just Song Qingshu scaring her, but she didn't dare to take this risk. If what he said was true, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I know what you're planning, but I'm not a silly girl like Zhong Ling who gave my body to you without knowing why. You can force the poison out later, but if you dare to do anything rude to me, I'll … I'll …" Mu Wanqing bit her lip and realized that she couldn't find anything to threaten him with.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but tease her. "You'll what?"
"I'll ignore you ~" As soon as the words left her mouth, Mu Wanqing felt that it was inappropriate. Wasn't this kind of weak threat encouraging him to violate her? She panicked and couldn't help but cry. "You only know how to bully me."
Song Qingshu's heart softened. He said softly, "Don't worry, I was just joking with you. I'll cover my eyes when I force the poison out of your body. This way, you don't have to worry, right? "
