Chapter 217 Youth Song 10
"You are quick-witted and thoughtful in your work, you deserve it," Xue Qingcheng said casually.
"Thank you for the compliment, young lady." Yueji was pleased by her words.
When she first arrived, I was worried that she would be difficult to serve, but I didn't expect that although this girl didn't seem to have much expression, she was very approachable.
"Go and get me breakfast for three people."
Although Yueji was puzzled as to why so many were needed, she still obediently went to do so.
As soon as everyone left, Xue Qingcheng asked Xiao Qi and Yun Shang to come out.
As for the roses, they were only curious when they saw them, and dared not ask any questions.
"Host, you've finally let us out!" Little Qi chattered excitedly as soon as she emerged.
"Let's go out for breakfast, and then we'll go out for a walk."
“Yes, Master,” Yunshang replied solemnly.
Xiao Qi was much more lively: "Okay, I love shopping and buying delicious food."
After the meal, Xue Qingcheng took them out. As for Yueji, she brought her along to help them find their way.
A carriage slowly drove out of Snowfall Manor. Xue Qingcheng and several others sat in the carriage, with a coachman outside.
“Miss, we’re heading towards the busiest street now, where there are mostly restaurants and shops,” Yueji said proactively.
Xue Qingcheng nodded: "Let's go to the bookstore first, I want to choose a few books."
On boring days, reading storybooks is a good way to pass the time.
"Then let's go to the biggest bookstore; they have a more complete selection of books."
"can."
"Host, the news about the Dark River Organization has spread far and wide!" Xiao Qi said in her mind.
"It's been a long time coming; we've been playing all this way, and it's only just gotten around to the news now."
"Yes, everyone's talking about who's so capable. We didn't try to cover it up that day, so someone should be able to find out soon."
"It doesn't matter, the good guys in the show won't say anything, it's the villains who are struggling," Xue Qingcheng said casually, lifting the curtain slightly to look out the window.
“Host, what you said makes sense!” Xiao Qi nodded.

When Xiao Se and his two companions arrived at Bai Xiaotang, the stern-faced official sitting at the head of the table asked, "Xiao Chuhe, what kind of information do you want?"
"The information I need cannot be provided by any of you here!"
Lei Wujie said in a low voice, "Xiao Se, keep a low profile. We're on someone else's turf."
"It doesn't matter."
"Xiao Chuhe, you don't naively think that just because His Majesty has restored your status, anyone will actually treat you as a prince, do you?" the stern-faced official in front of him said.
"Xiao Se, didn't you say this was your master's territory?" Lei Wujie asked.
“Ji Ruofeng has been missing for a year. Who says Bai Xiaotang is still under his control?” After saying that, the man raised his gun and pointed it at them.
Lei Wujie quickly drew his sword, and Tang Lian also watched her warily.
Xiao Se stood calmly in place, blocking Lei Wujie and Tang Lian as people rushed over.
"Let me do it!" With that, he drew Lei Wujie's sword and charged forward.
As soon as the two met, the man took a step back and removed his hat and mask.
She asked in surprise, "Your martial arts have recovered?"
Xiao Se nodded: "Ji Xue, where did Master go?"
"died!"
"What?" Xiao Se asked in confusion.
Ji Xue laughed and said, "Just kidding, but it's no different from being dead. He was seriously injured when he saved you back then, and he has been recuperating in Medicine King Valley all these years."
"I came here not only to gather information, but also to treat his injuries," Xiao Se said.
"Heal the wound? How do you heal it?" Ji Xue asked in surprise.
"See? I'm fine. Just bring your master, and I can heal him," Xiao Se said calmly.
"You can really cure him? You're not kidding me, are you? Tell me exactly how you'll cure him?" Ji Xue was still skeptical.
“Isn’t my martial arts the best proof? You’ll see when he arrives!” Xiao Se said earnestly.
"Alright, I'll go and inform him."
Xiao Se nodded and continued, "How's the investigation going with the matter I asked my master to investigate back then?"
"So who exactly injured you? Judging from your subsequent actions, it was a soft, yin-like internal force. I checked the manual, and it's the Xu Huai martial art."
Xiao Se thought for a moment and then said, "Supervisor Zhuo Qing."
"Yes, but he's dead. The trail ends here. Is there anything else you want to know?"
Afterwards, Xiao Se told Ji Xue what he wanted to know, and Ji Xue agreed.
After a pause, Ji Xue spoke up: "You know about the Dark River Organization, right? Do you know who did it?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Se and his two companions recalled the news they had heard on the way: the Dark River Organization had been provoked and had lost many of its top members.
They just haven't had time to investigate the specifics yet.
"You know?" Lei Wujie asked.
Ji Xue didn't answer his question, but looked at Xiao Se: "I heard that you used to have a girl by your side, and you two were close. Do you know her?"
"Miss Xue? Why are we talking about her? Could it be that the Dark River Organization is related to her?" Lei Wujie asked.
Xiao Se and Tang Lian also looked at Ji Xue to confirm whether what she said was true.
Seeing the looks in their eyes, Ji Xue didn't keep them in suspense: "That's right, we found out that it was indeed the girl next to you who led a group to the Dark River Organization, and the news spread after they came out."
"It really is Miss Xue! I always knew that Miss Yunshang was skilled in martial arts, but I didn't expect Miss Xue to be so powerful. She's from the Dark River Organization!" Lei Wujie exclaimed in surprise.
Tang Lian asked in confusion, "What level have they reached in their martial arts?"
Xiao Se remained silent. He sensed that Qingcheng's martial arts were different from theirs, just like the ability she had given him.
So he wasn't surprised that they could kill members of the Dark River organization at will.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Ji Xue continued, "Moreover, and most importantly, we can't find out the identities of those three people!"
"What, so mysterious? Do you know Xiao Se?" Lei Wujie asked.
Xiao Se changed the subject: "I know what happened. Let's go back first. Let's go."
Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, the others did not press him further.
After he finished speaking, he turned and left, with Lei Wujie and Tang Lian following behind.
Back at Snowfall Manor, Sikong Qianluo went over to them and said, "You're back. It's so boring being here all by myself!"
"Alone? Didn't you see anyone else?" Xiao Se asked.
"I wonder if Qingcheng has left again," he thought, and headed towards his own courtyard.
"Hey, I haven't even said a word to this guy, how come he ran away?"
Tang Lian said, "He seemed so anxious, is there someone else in the courtyard?"
“Let’s follow them and see!” Lei Wujie suggested.
“Let’s go take a look,” Sikong Qianluo agreed.
The group walked towards Xiao Se's direction, but Xiao Se had already seen that no one was inside.
He found the steward, Uncle Xu, and asked, "Has anyone gone out today?"
Uncle Xu said, "The young lady that the young master specifically instructed has gone out in a carriage with her entourage."
