Chapter 872: Late Night Sneak Attack(2/2)

Xi Yu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Shopkeeper, don't say that. As the prime minister, it is my duty to solve the problems of the people. You are here, and you are doing your own business, but you are bullied by that bully. How can I sit still and ignore it?"

The shopkeeper had tears in his eyes and he kept nodding.

"Prime Minister, you don't know that the bully has been domineering in this place for a long time. We ordinary people are so miserable that we are bullied by him, but they dare not speak out. If it weren't for you, the old man would really not know how to live in the future."

Xi Yu patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder and comforted him: "Now the bully has been sent to the government, I believe he will receive the punishment he deserves soon. From now on, you just need to run the inn with peace of mind. If there is any difficulty, come to the capital to find me."

The shopkeeper was flattered and responded quickly: "Thank you, Prime Minister, thank you, Prime Minister! I have written it down."

Xi Yu turned over and told him at last: "Shopkeeper, go back, don't send him far away."

After saying that, he shook the reins and the horse neighed, and ran towards the distance.

The shopkeeper stood there, looking at the direction where Xi Yu left, and was reluctant to turn around for a long time.

It was not until Xi Yu's figure disappeared at the end of the road that he slowly came to his senses, rode his horse, and returned to the inn.

After returning to the inn, the shopkeeper told everyone about what he had encountered as the prime minister. The guests in the inn were amazed when they heard this. The incident soon spread in the town, and the people's admiration for the prime minister Xi Yu became deeper and deeper.

In a quiet corner of Kunlun Mountain, Luo Xiaoyu is in front of her residence.

The breeze blows by, and the flowers and plants around you sway gently, which is a peaceful scene.

Suddenly, a slightly rapid sound of footsteps broke the tranquility.

Luo Xiaoyu looked up and saw the Taoist priest who was rude to him that day standing not far away with guilt on his face.

The Taoist priest bowed slightly, with a sincere expression and a tone full of regret: "Young Master Luo, I'm really sorry. I was reckless a few days ago and wronged the young master. Today I came to apologize."

Luo Xiaoyu frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes, and she scolded without hesitation: "Master Taoist, as a practitioner of Taoism, you should be able to distinguish right from wrong. But you just made unreasonable guesses at that time, you said badly to me. Is this the right way to do it? In the future, you must understand the whole story of the matter before talking about it. Don't act so recklessly again."

The Taoist priest lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Luo Xiaoyu's eyes. He kept saying: "Young Master Luo taught me a lesson, because I have not practiced enough and failed to control my impatientness. In the future, I will definitely be cautious in my words and actions, carefully check it, and never make such mistakes again."

Seeing that he was sincere, Luo Xiaoyu calmed down a little, and said slowly: "If the Taoist master knows his mistakes, he will correct it. This Kunlun Mountain is a place of pure cultivation. Everyone should respect each other and live in harmony."

The Taoist priest nodded quickly and said, "Young Master Luo said very well. This lesson is profound and I will definitely remember it in my heart. If there is anything needed in the future, please speak up."

Luo Xiaoyu nodded slightly and said, "I hope the Taoist priest will do what he said. If nothing else, you can go back first."

The Taoist priest saluted respectfully again, then turned around and left. After the Taoist priest's figure disappeared from the corner, Luo Xiaoyu sighed softly and looked at the mountains in the distance.

Shortly after the Taoist priest left, a sound of brisk but somewhat anxious footsteps came.

Luo Xiaoyu turned around and saw Xiaohong walking towards him with a worried look.

Xiaohong walked to Luo Xiaoyu, frowned, his eyes full of worry, and said, "Brother Xiaoyu, why has the Prime Minister not come back yet? I am so worried about the Prime Minister's danger."

Luo Xiaoyu looked at Xiaohong's anxious look, smiled slightly, and comforted softly: "Don't worry too much. Prime Minister Auspicious people have their own appearance. He has a profound blessing and is extremely wise, so there will be no trouble."

Xiaohong bit her lip and said, "With that being said, the Prime Minister has been traveling all the way this time, and I don't know how many unknown dangers I will encounter. I am really worried."

Luo Xiaoyu nodded slightly and looked into the distance, as if she could see the Prime Minister's itinerary at this moment, saying, "I understand your concerns. The Prime Minister is in love with the world and runs around. It is inevitable that he will encounter some twists and turns. But with many capable people around him, he will definitely be able to get rid of danger. It is useless to be anxious here. It is better to believe in the Prime Minister and wait patiently for his return."

Suddenly, Luo Xiaoyu seemed to have enough courage and grabbed Xiaohong's hand suddenly, looking at her with a burning look, with a hint of uneasiness and determination in her tone.

"Xiaohong, I have a selfish idea. It would be great if the Prime Minister hadn't found a drug that could restore your memory."

Xiaohong looked surprised, full of doubt, and asked hurriedly: "Why did you say that?"

Luo Xiaoyu lowered her head slightly, and her voice became soft and a little nervous.

"You don't have memories of the past now, so you won't have those worries. And... and I like you. If you keep doing this, we can be a couple. If you recover your memories, maybe you won't like me. I'm really afraid of losing you."

After hearing this, Xiaohong's face turned flushed instantly, and her heart began to jump wildly uncontrollably.

She subconsciously broke free from Luo Xiaoyu's hand and said coquettishly: "You...what were you saying!"

After saying that, she turned around in panic like a frightened deer, trotted into the room, and closed the door with a "bang".

Luo Xiaoyu stood there blankly, looking at the closed door, feeling regretful, wondering if his reckless confession just now scared Xiaohong.

He thought to himself whether he should chase after him and explain, but he was afraid that going to Xiaohong would only make him even more embarrassed at this moment.

In the room, Xiaohong leaned against the door, covered her hot cheeks with both hands, and Luo Xiaoyu's words kept echoing in her mind, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.

Luo Xiaoyu hesitated outside the door for a long time, raised her hand several times to knock on the door, but then shrank back the moment she touched the door panel.

He was full of entanglement, afraid that Xiaohong would be angry when he said just now, and worried that rashly disturbing her at this moment would make her even more upset.

Just as Luo Xiaoyu was hesitating, Xiaohong's faint sob came from the room.

Luo Xiaoyu's heart tightened and no longer cared about it. She hurriedly knocked on the door and said, "Xiaohong, what's wrong with you? Did I say too much just now? Don't be angry, it's my fault."

The sobs in the room paused, and then Xiaohong's crying voice came.

"You...you go away, I don't want to see you."

Luo Xiaoyu became more and more anxious, her tone was full of concern and self-blame.
