Chapter 242 Visitors from Japan
"Ji Wubing!"
Bai Zhantang's expression changed, and his brows furrowed slightly, sensing that something was amiss.
"What? With your current martial arts skills, you're still afraid of him? I think you've broken through to the Grandmaster realm."
Gu Qianbei asked in confusion.
Judging from Bai Zhantang's aura, he has indeed made rapid progress during this period and has already broken through to the Grandmaster realm.
All I can say is, he truly deserves the title of "Master Thief," his talent is undeniable.
"I'm not afraid of facing him head-on. But this kid is really cunning."
From a young age, he enjoyed playing some crooked and unorthodox games, and his favorite was the Ten-Fragrance Soft Bone Powder.
"Once this thing is used, even those below the Grandmaster level will be completely dumbfounded."
Bai Zhantang said helplessly.
"Oh? A master of poisoning."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"I'm alright, but none of the people in the inn know martial arts. If this kid goes berserk, it'll be troublesome."
Bai Zhantang expressed his concerns.
This is indeed a considerable problem.
"Simple. Just have our friends from the Beggars' Sect keep a close eye on things. When Ji Wubing arrives, we'll be careful and react promptly."
"That's all we can do."
Bai Zhantang nodded.
Gu Qianbei looked at Xiao Mi and said, "Xiao Mi, then I'll have to trouble your Beggar Clan brothers."
"No problem! Don't worry, Manager Gu."
I'll let you know as soon as I have any news.
Xiaomi laughed.
"it is good."
After seeing Xiaomi off, Bai Zhantang's worries hadn't lessened much, so he immediately summoned Lü Xiucai and told him about it.
"Therefore, you are the most dangerous person among us right now."
Lu Xiucai managed to persuade the amnesiac Ji Wuming to commit suicide with just his words, which has become a legendary story in the inn.
However, none of them expected that this matter would bring about a new crisis.
Upon hearing this, Lü Xiucai's expression changed drastically.
"Oh no... what am I going to do? Old Bai, you have to save me!"
Lu Xiucai was extremely anxious.
"I will be more careful during this period, but you also need to be careful and not run around."
If you sense anything is wrong, contact me immediately, or go to Manager Gu.
Bai Zhantang said earnestly.
"Okay, I understand."
Lu Xiucai nodded repeatedly.
"Xiao Gu, how about we let Wushuang come back for a couple of days first, so she can help protect the scholar?"
Bai Zhantang looked at Gu Qianbei and said.
"With the two of us here, do we really need another girl to do the work?"
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"That's true."
Bai Zhantang nodded in agreement.
"No, the more the better. What if there's a mistake?"
Lü Xiucai was indeed very worried, and thought it was a good suggestion.
Gu Qianbei said, "Don't worry, there won't be any oversights. Besides, it's not easy for Wushuang, a girl, to protect you."
Furthermore, as someone who has just broken up with their boyfriend, you should avoid interacting with other girls.
While the best way to forget an ex is to enter into a new relationship, it is also the most irresponsible approach.
You'd better just be honest.
In the original story, the love story between Lü Xiucai and Zhu Wushuang was a major flaw.
These were two completely incompatible people who, due to a series of misunderstandings, briefly came together.
In the end, none of the three of them were happy.
Therefore, Gu Qianbei felt it was better to intervene.
The best solution is to minimize contact between the two.
After all, the process of Zhu Wushuang falling in love with Lü Xiucai was full of too many coincidences, and cutting off contact would basically avoid trouble.
And Guo Furong returned very quickly.
Once she comes back, there will be no possibility between the two of them.
Therefore, it's best to take precautions during this period.
"Who's being dishonest! Who's starting a new relationship! Manager Gu, you're slandering me!"
Upon hearing this, Lü Xiucai became anxious and hurriedly said loudly, "I only love Xiao Guo, and I will never fall in love with any other woman!"
This is an insult to my character!
After finishing his sentence, Lü Xiucai turned and left.
"Hey, this poor scholar has quite a temper. Little Gu, don't take it to heart."
This guy has been saying he's going to forget Xiao Guo every day lately, and suddenly he's acting like a Casanova.
Bai Zhantang complained.
Gu Qianbei smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's alright. I know that Xiucai is just concerned about his image."
"It's good that you understand. But are you really worried that Xiucai and Wushuang will get together?"
Bai Zhantang asked curiously.
Gu Qianbei nodded.
"No way, could my junior sister have such poor taste? Would she really be interested in a mere scholar?"
Bai Zhantang expressed his doubts.
Gu Qianbei laughed and said, "Old Bai, do you know your junior sister is starved for affection?"
"I know. She was an orphan since she was a child and didn't have many friends in the Sunflower School."
I was probably the closest person to her.
But what does this have to do with her lack of love?
Do you know what kind of men a girl who lacks love is most likely to fall for?
"What man?"
"A man who is downcast and depressed after a breakup."
"Huh? Is that so?"
Bai Zhantang asked in surprise.
Girls who lack love might think, "Ah, this man is so affectionate. He's so heartbroken after breaking up with his girlfriend. He must be a good man."
Moreover, seeing a broken man will trigger her protective instincts, leading her to give him a warm hug.
In this way, it would be very easy for them to get together.
Many men use feigning melancholy to pick up girls, and it's very effective.
Gu Qianbei said.
"Is that so? Tsk tsk, I have to write this down in my Thirty-Six Strategies for Love, and study it carefully later."
Bai Zhantang felt he had learned something.
"Don't memorize useless things. Is this the time to talk about these things?"
I reckon Xiao Guo should be back soon, so let Xiucai have some peace and quiet for a while.
The problems will all be solved then.
"Xiao Guo can come back? No way. She's a rich young lady; how could she possibly get addicted to staying here?"
Bai Zhantang expressed disbelief.
"Everyone will find their own place to belong, and for at least the next ten years, Xiao Guo's place to belong is here."
People always want to choose a place where they feel comfortable living.
Compared to the Six Doors, Xiao Guo would prefer this place.
"Does a scholar really have that much charm?"
"Everyone has their own taste, and Miss Guo just likes it, is that wrong?"
Gu Qianbei complained.
"Alright, alright! Anyway, I don't think much of a scholar as my brother-in-law, so I promise I won't let him do anything reckless."
"That's good."
After they finished discussing their plan, they went about their respective tasks.
In the afternoon, two extraordinary guests suddenly arrived at Qianchousi.
A man and a woman, each holding a long sword, clearly belonged to the martial arts world.
They had just come from Japan; the man's name was Duan Tianya, and the woman's name was Yagyu Yukihime.
"Hello, is Gu Qianbei the shopkeeper here?"
Xue Ji spoke softly, asking Zhu Wushuang in front of her.
Zhu Wushuang was stunned by Xue Ji's beauty; she had never seen such a beautiful woman before.
Her skin was truly as white as snow.
