Chapter 64 Killing Intent
Xin You woke up very early the next day, and the blue shadow under her eyes was clearly reflected in the vanity mirror.
Xiao Lian silently brought a boiled egg, peeled off the shell and gently rolled it under her eyes.
"No need, I'll go ahead and have a look."
"Doesn't the girl have breakfast?"
"We'll eat when we get back." Xin You didn't let Xiaolian follow, and went to the front alone.
At this time, there was no one in the bookstore, and the door of the bookstore was still locked. Xin You walked among the rows of bookshelves, and finally stopped at the bookshelf where the travel notes were placed.
She picked up a book of travel notes casually, but couldn't read a word of it. At one moment, the image of He Qingxiao standing here reading a book was in her mind.
She put the travel notes back where they were, and walked out through the corner door.
Although it was still early, there were already many people on the street, most of whom started to run around for a living.
The morning breeze was cool, and Xin You was walking aimlessly on the street, sometimes people passing by would cast curious glances.
After walking like this for an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden noise, and Xin You subconsciously looked over.
A door opened, and several Jinlin guards followed a man with disheveled hair to go out. The man suddenly broke free from the restraints, raised his dagger and stabbed at the leading man in red clothes.
The man in red clothes seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and easily avoided the sudden attack, pinching the man's wrist with one hand.
The dagger fell to the ground, making the sound of metal and stone hitting each other.
"Bold, dare to attack our adults!"
"Take away, take away."
The man was pushed back by Jin Linwei, and stared at the leader with red eyes: "He Qingxiao, you will be retribution for a lackey like you, you will definitely be retribution!"
A Jinlin guard gagged the man's mouth with a cloth towel.
Behind him were the mournful cries of that person's family members.
He Qingxiao seemed to sense something, and looked in the direction where Xin You was.
The eyes of the two met, one was expressionless, and the other was slightly surprised.
Surprised that Xin You appeared here, He Qingxiao nodded slightly as a greeting, and left with his men.
Xin You kept staring at his back until he could no longer see anyone, then turned to look at the desperate and crying family members.
It turns out that the person with a gentle attitude reading books in the bookstore is Mr. He, and it is also Mr. He who is extremely indifferent to the arresting person in front of him.
The cries of those family members made Xin You more breathless, she turned around and walked towards the bookstore step by step.
The door of Qingsong Bookstore has been opened, and the stone is sweeping the road in front of the door. Seeing Xin You walking from outside, she politely says hello: "Morning, my master."
"Morning." Xin You responded and walked in.
Shitou straightened up with the broom in his hand, with a bit of worry in his eyes.
The boss seems not very happy.
Liu Zhou, who was cleaning the bookshelf, saw Xin You, and greeted Xin You with a smile: "My boss is out so early."
Shopkeeper Hu consciously gave up his seat: "Master, sit down and rest for a while."
"No need, you sit down, the shopkeeper." Xin You cast her eyes on the bookshelf, her voice was slightly cold, "Liu Zhou, go and put away those travel notes."
Liu Zhou was stunned for a moment, and quickly agreed, walked over and hugged a few travel notes: "Boss, where did you get it?"
Xin You stared at the boy full of books for a moment, then changed his words: "Forget it, let's put it back."
With these travel notes, He Qingxiao will come often, and she will be able to find opportunities to avenge her mother.
First break the murder knife, and then chop the heartless man. If she can do it, then she will have no regrets when she goes to see her mother.
Xin You was a tough person after all, with a decision, her silent eyes became clear again.
When Xinyou went to the east courtyard, Liu Zhou moved to the shopkeeper Hu, unable to hide his gossip tone: "Shopkeeper, do you think the boss is having a quarrel with Mr. He?"
Shopkeeper Hu patted Liu Zhou on the head: "Pay attention to the wording, the boss and Mr. He are not familiar, so what's the matter?"
"Then how do you put away the travel notes properly? The boss asked them to display them before."
"If you can guess what the boss does, what kind of guy are you? Work hard, I'll go to the printing shop to see."
For Shopkeeper Hu, the lower part of "Painted Skin" is the most important part, and it cannot be sloppy at all.
When He Qingxiao came to the bookstore again, he found that several travel notes had changed their order. Of course, this is nothing, he picked up the unfinished travel book and read it quietly.
At dusk, the light in the depths of the bookshelf was a bit dim, and half of that fair face was shrouded in shadow, making his temperament even more serene.
He suddenly turned his head, looked at the girl who was close at hand, and expressed his inquiry with his eyes.
Xin You's expression was calm: "The light is not good, Mr. He hurt his eyes carefully."
It turned out to be to remind him of this.
He Qingxiao had a light smile in his dark eyes: "Thank you, Miss Kou, for reminding—"
Having said that, he paused, and thanked again: "I also thank Miss Kou for reminding me earlier, allowing me to avoid the **** disaster."
Xin You pursed her lips, feeling heartbroken.
Regrets are not there, and knowing how to repay her kindness is her principle of being a human being. He Qingxiao helped her twice, and she reminded He Qingxiao twice, so it was even.
After that, only the murder of the mother remained.
How can she break this murderous knife and get away with it?
At that moment just now, she almost couldn't restrain the raging killing intent, and acted impulsively.
While thinking about it, a picture suddenly appeared.
It was a tea house, and He Qingxiao seemed to be waiting for someone, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and then his face showed pain, and blood flowed from his mouth and nose. The half-drunk teacup fell to the ground and shattered.
Blinking again, the shocking scene disappeared, and the handsome young man with a smile on his lips was still in front of him.
Xin You took half a step back and raised the corners of her lips: "Master He is polite. With Master He's ability, even without my reminder, you will be safe and sound."
Maybe she just needs to say nothing, and she can accomplish one thing she wants to do.
"No, Miss Kou's reminder is very important." He Qingxiao's tone was sincere, her eyes clear.
Xin You lowered her eyes to avoid those smiling eyes: "Then don't disturb Mr. He's reading."
She turned around to leave, but was stopped by He Qingxiao.
"I heard that Mr. Pingan is writing a new book, and the release date may coincide with the second part of "Painted Skin". Miss Kou, pay attention."
Xin You was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and asked directly: "Why does Mr. He help me so many times?"
"I'm used to reading books at Qingsong Bookstore, and I don't want to see the bookstore close due to poor management. Besides, I think Ms. Kou is a good person. I met you by chance. Naturally, I hope you have a good life."
Speaking of this, He Qingxiao smiled: "For me, it's just a matter of lifting a finger, and it doesn't take much effort."
When the man in front of him said these words, his attitude was so open, his eyes were so clear, Xin You's cold heart was shaken a little, and he asked with inexplicable expectation: "Did Mr. He go away in April? "
He Qingxiao was stunned, with doubts in his eyes: "Did Miss Kou see this too?"
