Chapter 27.1: Are You Going To Offer Yourself In Marriage?

Once Mu Chi realized that she had forgotten who he was, he immediately said a little anxiously: "Miss, look carefully. Do you really not remember me?"

Qing Yu arched up an eyebrow. "Am I supposed to remember you?"

"You've forgotten that you saved me the other night and that I have even gotten people to deliver a million taels of gold right before your door?" Mu Chi's face was serious as he tried to explain.

Qing Yu's face did not show the slightest change in expression, but in her heart, she had already carefully looked over this fella from head to toe. The night he was poisoned, his face had been bruised and it was impossible to see how he looked clearly. But she could now see that he wasn't all that bad looking at all!

[Still, how was he able to recognize her through her disguise?]

Not to mention that he was just a stranger whom she had only met once, even Little Bei had been stunned for a good while the first time he saw her looking like this.

"Look here lad, you have a good look as well." Qing Yu smiled and stretched her hand out to tap him on the shoulder. "I, am male. Although I'm quite good looking, but for you to address a guy as Miss, that is an insult to me."

The corner of Mu Chi's mouth twitched. "Miss, let's not parry with Tai Chi anymore alright? I saw you coming out of the Eternal Peace Duke's Manor's back door with my own eyes. Just admit it would you?"

Qing Yu did not say a word. "….." [This kid really isn't being cute at all.]

With all that's been said, there was no meaning in continuing to play dumb. Qing Yu herself was not a person who played coy all that much and she immediately gave helpless shrug of his shoulders. "Alright. I'll admit it. What do you want by following behind me like this?"

Mu Chi's face then split into a smile, his eyes bright and sparkling with blinding brilliance. His eyes enchanting, he said: "I would like to know you. My name is Mu Chi."

"Mm. Su Yan." Qing Yu said with a nod of his head, making up a random name. "You know me now. That's should be all right? I still have business to attend to and we'll part here." Upon saying that, she went right past him and continued her way forward.

Mu Chi froze a moment and then hastened to catch up. "Where are you going? Can I help?"

"No need. Thanks."

"You don't need to be so courteous with me. You are my saviour afterall and I still want to repay you!"

"You've paid me my remuneration and we do not owe each other anything."

"A drop of water's benevolence must be repaid as a gushing spring. Moreover, a debt of benevolence for having saved another person life is one great as the Heavens. That is not something that mere material things like money can possibly offset."

Qing Yu suddenly halted her steps and turned herself around with an eyebrow raised to look at the lad with a serious face. "Then what do you want to do?"

"I….." He had been so righteous sounding just one moment ago when he suddenly turned coy and squeamish, his eyes looking slightly evasive.

Qing Yu burst out laughing upon seeing him like this and said mockingly: "You can't possibly be thinking to offer yourself up in marriage are you?"

Upon meeting those devilishly alluring eyes of hers, and that expression with that imperceptible smile, Mu Chi's heart grew fl.u.s.tered.

He then thought of how all women all the way up to eighty years old and even children down to four years old were always so easily coaxed by that glib silver tongue of his.

But before the young lady here, he had suddenly become inarticulate and awkward, unable to even complete his sentences.

She was teasing him jokingly and with a such a wicked expression on her face, no different from that of a thug taking liberties with a good young lady, but alas, wrapped in such a great looking flesh exterior, not only was one unable to get angry, it would make people more than willing to suffer from it.

For the first time, Mu Chi felt that he had become a little strange, and he did not know what was happening to him.

He just kept his eyes lowered and squirmed coyly there for a good while. Waiting till he had finally summoned up his courage, he raised his head up. Only to discover that there was no one in front of him at all.

"I'm really such an idiot!" He howled in frustration, and then raised a hand up to hit himself viciously on the head.
