Chapter 635: She Already Knows?
Su Huiqing didn’t know what happened at the Elder Cabinet. Even if she knew, she wouldn’t care.
She was currently walking towards the Dugu Family’s main door with her guard, Xiao Ba, and Lu Zhenzhen.
Coincidentally, they b.u.mped into Dugu Shuang, who was rushing towards the Elder Cabinet.
Dugu Shuang looked deeply at Su Huiqing and didn’t speak. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw the guard behind Su Huiqing. She raised her brows. “What’s your name?”
“Xiao Ba,” Xiao Ba answered obediently.
“Xiao Ba, right?” Dugu Shuang nodded. “Seeing that you have also reached the third level, are you willing to follow me?”
Upon hearing Dugu Shuang’s words, most people present looked at Xiao Ba with envy.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ba rejected her righteously. “Miss Shuang’er, Seventh Elder wants me to follow Miss Su. Miss Su is my master.”
“Are you really not willing?” Dugu Shuang didn’t expect Xiao Ba to reject her. Her face darkened.
Without hesitation, Xiao Ba asked, “Do I look like I’m joking?”
Not far away, the guard captain’s heart skipped a beat. Things were different now. When did the honest Xiao Ba become like this?
“Very good.” Dugu Shuang glanced at Xiao Ba coldly and left.
On the other hand, a friend of Xiao Ba’s former team could not help but shake his head and sigh. “Xiao Ba, Miss Shuang’er finally asked for someone, but you’re still unwilling. Don’t you know that her teacher is a high-level potion maker?”
Xiao Ba sighed and said, “Old Fifth, on account of the fact that you gave me a steamed bun in the past, I’ll give you a warning. Don’t say that I don’t know how to repay kindness. It’s fine if you want to side with Miss Shuang’er, but let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t provoke my master.”
Old Fifth: “…Xiao Ba, you’ve changed. You weren’t like this before.”
Xiao Ba: “The times are improving.”
After Xiao Ba left, Old Fifth remained rooted to the ground and stared at Su Huiqing.
The person beside him immediately came over. “This Xiao Ba actually didn’t even go when Miss Shuang’er looked for him. Although I can’t deny that Miss Su is powerful, Miss Shuang’er has a potion master behind her. The people behind her are almost all third-level and above. He is really… sigh, what a pity.”
Old Fifth shook his head and suddenly said, “Not necessarily.”
“What do you mean?” The person beside him was puzzled.
Old Fifth didn’t say anything else and just walked in the direction he came from. This time, his footsteps were much heavier.
…
On the other side, Su Huiqing glanced at Xiao Ba. “I didn’t expect you to be so firm.”
“Exactly. I swear to the sun.” Xiao Ba’s face was solemn.
Su Huiqing immediately waved her hand. “Enough. You even swore to the sun. The sun doesn’t even want to bother with you.”
Xiao Ba looked up and indeed saw a cloud blocking the sun. This was a little awkward.
At this moment, a cry of shock came from the courtyard ahead.
Then came the sounds of guards and servants in chaos.
Xiao Ba was more familiar with the terrain here. He said softly, “Missy, that’s Madam Dugu’s courtyard.”
Su Huiqing stopped in her tracks and smirked.
Seeing that Su Huiqing was a little interested, Xiao Ba asked someone to investigate. “It was Madam Dugu who suddenly fainted and whose skin had grown black all over. The people who served her were all locked up.”
He looked at Su Huiqing’s calm expression and suddenly had an impossible guess. Could it be… Miss Su already knew that Madam would be like this?
