Hence, everyone greeted her as Madam throughout the journey.
Feeling embarrassed, Lu Sheng could only cover it with a dry laugh.
On the other hand, Chu Sihan did not say a word. It was unknown if he was too lazy to explain or if he was underestimating explaining at all.
Surprisingly, the next few days were very peaceful. There was no sign of a hitman at all.
However, the more like this, the more uncomfortable everyone felt.
After all, everyone knew that even though everything seemed peaceful on the surface, there was still an unknown storm appearing in the darkness.
“God, there's a teahouse not far from here. Should we rest before continuing our journey? ” Chu Yun spurred his horse forward and asked.
“Iya.”
Chu Sihan replied weakly. His handsome face was cold, but when he looked at Lu Shen, his eyes had a hint of invisible tenderness.
The tea shop is a bit dilapidated. It was just a simple tent built with a large piece of cloth.
Instead of calling it a teahouse, it was more like a tea room.
The tea table inside was filled with Lu Sheng and the others.
The boss of the teahouse was a man in his thirties. He is thin and small, but very efficient in terms of work.
In addition to the boss, there is also a mother-daughter couple, who are the boss' wife and child.
They spoke warmly and greeted the guests enthusiastically over tea.
Seeing that Lu Sheng was the only female in the group, the mother-daughter couple came to talk to him.
“Kakak, who are you?”
The girl looked at him curiously with black eyes and beads.
Seeing that it was no big deal, Lu Sheng replied honestly, “We will go to Lin Jiang's House.”
“Sister, that brother is very handsome. Is he your husband? ”
Lu Sheng was stunned. Then, he smiled and shook his head. “No.”
The woman smiled and said, “It's been a long time, over ten years. My husband took over the family business from my father-in-law for only a few years. ”
Lu Sheng nodded and surveyed his surroundings silently.
His smile was light, but his gaze was cold.
Ever since Chu Sihan was tricked once at the courier station, he had become even more vigilant.
That was why everyone took out a silver needle to test the poison in the tea. They only drank it quietly when they saw no poison.
Lu Sheng's sleeves accidentally passed through the tea bowl and it was tilted. Seeing that it was about to fall off the table, the girl quickly put the bowl back on the table.
“Thank you!”
He thanked me while smiling. His eyes sparkled with a gentle and friendly look.
Mother-daughter couple looking at each other. Then, the girl turned to Lu Sheng and continued to ask, “Sister, what's on that wagon? Why does it take so many people to control it? “
Lu Sheng replied patiently, “Not much. I bought it from the village. They are not very valuable. ”
A hint of ridicule flashed in the girl's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
If Lu Sheng hadn't noticed it from the corner of his eyes, he might not have noticed it either.
While holding the tea bowl, he placed it on his lips and took a sip.
His eyelids drooped slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
“You are so beautiful. I'm sure you have a good family background. ”
After measuring Lu Sheng from head to toe, the woman smiled and said, “We are from a poor family. No matter how handsome we are, we cannot raise a woman with delicate skin and tender flesh like you. “
Lu Sheng smiled when he heard that.
He put the tea bowl on the table and spoke in a soft voice, “I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I am also a farmer. I grew up soaking in muddy water. “
“Nona, you know how to make jokes.”
The woman obviously did not believe him and even thought he was joking.
