No! Pu Cang Jie reminded himself again that he wouldn’t care about a woman who looked like she came from a noble background. He had seen too many such women!
But…
“That girl is quite interesting!”
In the shadows of the narrow alley, a rough voice spoke his thoughts.
He didn’t turn back, just calmly said, “Let’s go back. I’ll finish this garbage bag and come up. Nothing will happen.”
“That girl… I just saw her lingering at the intersection,” Mu Cun Fan Zhen said.
As usual, he would patrol the nearby area every day, paying attention to any suspicious people or things. Although the outside world didn’t know that the famous Ying Pu Cang Jie was here, his status meant he couldn’t neglect his duties.
Previously a imperial guard, he had been entrusted by the Emperor a year ago to come to Singapore, find a job as cover, and secretly protect Ying Pu Cang Jie. However, Ying Pu Cang Jie’s eyes were so sharp that he saw through his disguise on the second day of his arrival.
Ying Pu Cang Jie had seen, heard, and contacted more than ten thousand people. Unexpectedly, he even remembered this small guard from among the many guards around the Emperor, and could see through his disguise with the big black beard.
“Is that so?” Upon hearing that information, Pu Cang Jie’s body stiffened imperceptibly before speaking indifferently again, “She must have come back to get her bag.”
“Doesn’t seem like it,” Mu Cun Fan Zhen said casually. “I just saw Qu Zhong pull her into a bar.”
“What?” Pu Cang Jie was truly panicked this time. “You saw that scoundrel Qu Zhong lure her away and didn’t stop him?!”
Mu Cun Fan Zhen raised an eyebrow. Having followed Ying Pu Cang Jie for so long, this was the first time he’d heard him use such a tone of reproach towards someone below him. He shrugged, a hint of amusement in his eyes. Perhaps Ying Pu Cang Jie wasn’t as detached as he appeared!
“She was crying. You know how good Qu Zhong is at entertaining ladies. How could I interfere?”
“Qu Zhong is a pimp who knows how to charm ladies… it’s driving me crazy!” Leaving the garbage half-sorted, Pu Cang Jie stood up.
