Chapter 544 The Guest
Liu Sheng followed Miss Chunxiao, walked around the stage, and entered a hidden door. Inside was a lifting platform that led directly to the top floor of Furong Pavilion.

On the top floor, looking around, there are only four private rooms surrounding the atrium patio, and there are no private seats at all.

Outside the circular corridor is Chang'an, brightly lit on the Mid-Autumn night. The bright moon and the face of the god seem to be within reach.

"You can't enter here without a certain status." Miss Chunxiao introduced with a smile, a hint of pride in her tone.

But Liu Sheng just showed indifference to this.

Seeing this, Miss Chunxiao smiled deeply.

The words "Chun Xiao" were written on the door of one of the private rooms, which should be her exclusive box.

As they walked in, a huge bright moon struck them.

A carved window opposite the door was open, revealing the view of the atrium outside. The bright moon seemed real and illusory, as if you could pick it up with your hand.

"How is it? Isn't the scenery nice?" Miss Chunxiao said with a smile.

Liu Sheng nodded calmly.

"Don't be so cold..."

Miss Chunxiao sighed softly, with a hint of resentment.

As soon as the door was closed, she seemed to have put aside some of her outward disguises. She sat on the brocade couch by the window, swinging her calves, revealing her embroidered shoes under her skirt.

The expression on her face seemed to be relaxed yet a bit mischievous and cunning, which was very different from her original dignified and charming appearance.

Liu Sheng did not sit down with her, but found a seat at the table, keeping a distance from her.

"I'm just curious, why did you go to so much trouble to attract me here?"

"Isn't this because I want to get closer to you?" Miss Chunxiao smiled brightly and said in an ambiguous tone, "Is there a destiny?"

Liu Sheng smiled coldly, "What is your ability, to spy on other people's secrets?"

Miss Chunxiao snapped her fingers and said, "Shengsheng, you are really smart."

[I guess she wouldn't snap her fingers in front of others.]

Such a sentence suddenly popped up in Liu Sheng's mind.

He shook his head, put the thought behind him, and sneered, "But isn't it too unfair to spy on someone unilaterally?"

"So, Shengsheng is also curious about me?" Miss Chunxiao covered her chest with her hands, looking surprised and moved.

But Liu Sheng knew very well that this was all an exaggerated performance.

She felt more and more that this woman was unpredictable.

"Why don't you tell me first, Shengsheng, what this formation diagram is? Let me study it carefully..." Miss Chunxiao said in a pleading tone.

After a moment of silence, Liu Sheng said, "So, how did you know about the formation diagram?"

Liu Sheng spoke directly, and seemed unwilling to beat around the bush.

She originally thought that this Miss Chunxiao might have a similar origin or experience to her, which was why she had to ponder such a puzzle, but now it seems that Miss Chunxiao actually has no idea what this is.

"Just as you thought." A gleam of light flashed in Miss Chunxiao's eyes, and she admitted directly, "This is one of my abilities. I can detect the deepest secrets of the target, but the information I get is random, and depending on the gap in ability and resilience between the opponent and me, some information will be lost."

Liu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

[Wow, this answer is really detailed. ]

"I know you must be curious why I am so honest with you." Miss Chunxiao continued.

Liu Sheng nodded.

"Mainly because you are..."

"Don't talk to me about destined lovers." Liu Sheng interrupted her decisively.

Miss Chunxiao smiled, knowing that she could not fool him anymore, and then she said, "I want to get to know you..."

"Why?" Liu Sheng asked.

"The moment I met you, I felt that you were the most secretive person I know." Miss Chunxiao said, blinking her eyes, "So, of course I want to get to know you..."

"But you are from the Northern Divine Kingdom." "If Shengsheng doesn't like it, I can change it!" Miss Chunxiao said with a smile, "It depends on Shengsheng, which side you belong to."

Liu Sheng frowned. This girl Chunxiao didn't speak properly, was frivolous and casual, and was always asking questions.

"You don't believe it?" Miss Chunxiao raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Of course I don't believe it, unless that thing no longer exists in your mind." Liu Sheng spoke sharply.

The room fell into silence.

Miss Chunxiao's expression changed slightly, and she was obviously shocked that Liu Sheng knew this.

"You are indeed not simple." She sighed softly, raised her hand and waved it, sweeping off the mask on Liu Sheng's face.

Fortunately, Liu Sheng was well prepared.

"There is even disguise." Miss Chunxiao narrowed her eyes, obviously not very satisfied.

"Is this how you entertain guests at Furong Pavilion?" Liu Sheng also raised his eyebrows.

Miss Chunxiao smiled charmingly: "Yes, there is nothing I can do. After all, this is my territory."

"You're going to go into the warehouse later, too?"

Miss Chunxiao said this so quickly that Liu Sheng didn't react. He was stunned. He didn't expect her to be so direct.

"Yes." Liu Sheng replied.

"Okay, then you stay here with me."

"No, I want to go back." Liu Sheng refused decisively.

After figuring out the matter about the formation plate, she didn't want to get entangled with this half-true and half-false Chun Xiao anymore.

"But... where are you going back to?" Miss Chunxiao tilted her head and nodded her chin, her smile still lingering.

"Of course I'm going to find my partner..."

"But they are not waiting for you." Miss Chunxiao interrupted Liu Sheng directly.

As he spoke, he pointed outside the carved window.

"Look, that's where you were originally." Her tender fingers pointed to the position next to the railing on the third floor below. There was no one at the table.

Seeing this, Liu Sheng's heart sank and his brows furrowed slightly.

[Judging from the location and the food on the table, this is indeed where you sat.] The world said.

But where did Ling Fu and Wen Weilan go?
Weren't they waiting for the arrival of the 11th hour as well? Why did they suddenly disappear?

Thinking of this, Liu Sheng turned his eyes to Miss Chun Xiao, but Miss Chun Xiao waved her hand and said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with me, don't look at me! It's just that they are not waiting for you."

Liu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chun Xiao.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the door, and a loud voice came from far away.

"How can Miss Chunxiao be with someone else? This has never happened before! Is Furong Pavilion short of money? Even Miss Chunxiao has to be betrayed!"

"I don't think you have no money! I come here every day to report for duty, and I've given you all kinds of gifts. I also paid a high price to buy your Hibiscus Order. So, Miss Chunxiao and I should have the priority to meet each other!"

The conversations were getting closer and closer, mixed with people's voices of dissuasion, but the man was obviously unwilling to give up. Moreover, he was a distinguished guest of the noble Furong Order, so he naturally could not be offended.

"Master Cao, you are making things difficult for us. This is Miss Chunxiao's decision, and we cannot interfere!"

"I don't believe it. You must have forced me to do it!" Mr. Cao roared, with resentment in his voice.

"I was enjoying my meal in the palace, but when I heard the news, I stopped eating and rushed straight to Hibiscus Pavilion without worrying about the emperor's blame!"

"Master Cao..."

"Master Cao, stop!"

"Don't be afraid, Miss Chunxiao! I'm coming!"

With a loud roar, the door of the private room was slammed violently.
