My wife is a reborn big boss
Chapter 98 Bu Yurou
Regardless of how things will be handled at Medicine King Valley, on the official road at this moment, two figures, one in black and one in white, are moving swiftly forward, focusing their energy on their feet.
"Wait!" Li Jianshi shouted.
"?" Su Mubai stopped and looked at her, tilting his head slightly.
"What do you plan to do when you get back? Question Bai Xuanji?" Li Jianshi asked seriously, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Why question me?" Su Mubai remained expressionless. "It's good that Wu Qiong has recovered."
"Then why are you running so fast?" Li Jianshi tried to get closer to Bai Xuanji, since the two of them were going to work together to fight against her.
As for her previous idea of "Lu Meng crossing the river in disguise to take Jingzhou"... now that "Jingzhou" has fallen into the hands of "Cao Cao", she just pretends nothing happened.
"I want to see him soon." The young girl's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and a blush crept up her ears.
Li Jianshi's expression was complicated: "I never expected you to have this side to you."
In her past life, Su Mubai was someone who would wipe out an entire family at the drop of a hat. If someone insulted her, she would slaughter the entire sect from top to bottom, and in the end, she wouldn't even spare a dog, all while calling it "cutting the weeds by removing the roots."
Unexpectedly, she has become much gentler in this life. Perhaps she doesn't want Wu Qiong to see her ruthless side?
She couldn't help but ask, "How did you meet Poor Brother?"
"He was dying, so I saved him," Su Mubai replied.
She unusually answered so many questions from her mortal enemy from her past life, indicating that she was in a good mood. After all, with the "Entangling Heart Glazed Core" in hand, Wu Qiong would recover soon, although the fact that she wasn't the one who brought it back made her somewhat unhappy.
"..." Li Jianshi was speechless. She felt that something was wrong. Was Su Mubai really that easy to talk to? And shouldn't it be a hero saving a beauty, instead of a heroine saving a handsome young man?
Su Mubai said impatiently, "So what exactly are you trying to say?"
Li Jianshi sighed softly, "I was just thinking, what if..."
If she hadn't fallen for the same man, she might have been able to become friends with Su Mubai in this lifetime.
Thinking of this, she murmured, "Poor brother, you are truly a sinful man..."
As the only direct descendant of the sect leader of the Xuantian Sect, the number one sect in the world, it wouldn't be difficult for Li Jianshi to give herself to a penniless Wu Qiong.
Who would have thought her opponent was no less formidable: a future leader of the Demonic Sect, and a newly enthroned Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty...
"You mean..." Li Jianshi smiled and tried to find a topic to talk about, "Could it be that my poor brother has gotten involved with some woman we don't know about?"
Upon hearing this, Su Mubai suddenly thought of Lin Changxi. She frowned slightly, about to speak.
The sound of a horse-drawn carriage could be heard in the distance.
The two looked over and saw a very luxurious carriage slowly approaching and stopping in front of them.
A slender, white hand reached out from within, lifting the curtain to reveal a stunningly beautiful face, gentle and tender.
Upon seeing Li Jianshi, the woman exclaimed with delight, "Are you Li Jianshi of the Xuantian Sect, sister?"
"The state of harmony between man and nature"?
The two women, Su and Li, exchanged a glance. Li Jianshi spoke up, "It's me. May I ask who you are, elder sister?"
"I am Bu Yurou, just a singer," Bu Yurou said self-deprecatingly.
Li Jianshi's eyes narrowed. This woman used self-deprecation to shorten the distance between us on our first meeting. She... is not simple.
Su Mubai stood silently to the side, watching the two talk. She couldn't be bothered with strangers.
"So you're the famous Bu Yurou!" Li Jianshi exclaimed with delight, then asked, puzzled, "Why did you seek me out, sister?"
"Perhaps it's not important to you, sister, but it's very important to me." Bu Yuru tucked her hair behind her ear and said softly, "I've heard that you have a close relationship with 'Sword Rain and Xiaoxiang,' could you perhaps introduce me?"
"..." Su Mubai glanced at Li Jianshi, who returned a stiff smile.
She had just joked, "Could it be that my poor brother has gotten involved with some woman we don't know about?" and now this happens... Is it really that weird?
Bu Yuru asked, puzzled, "Is that not allowed?"
"It's not impossible," Li Jianshi asked. "Does Sister know 'Sword Rain and Xiaoxiang'?"
Bu Yuru nodded: "I am where I am today thanks to him."
Seeing that Su and Li's faces were gradually darkening, she covered her mouth and chuckled, "Don't worry, sister, I don't have that kind of relationship with him."
"Sister, you jest," Li Jianshi said with a sweet smile. "May I ask how you and that person met?"
"That's a long story," Bu Yu said softly. "Where are you two sisters headed? If it's on my way, I'll give you a ride."
The two women, Su and Li, exchanged a glance, and Li Jianshi nodded and smiled, "Then I'll trouble you, sister."
After saying that, the two boarded the carriage, and Bu Yurou said softly, "Let's go, Uncle Li."
The middle-aged coachman, who seemed to have no presence at all, bowed slightly, then started the carriage and continued on his way.
Inside the carriage, Bu Yuru had just sat down when she noticed the two women opposite her staring intently at her. She then smiled and said, "Don't rush, I'll tell you right away."
She composed herself and recalled, "That was nine years ago. I was born into a poor family. My mother passed away early, and my father fell ill from overwork. The few copper coins we had were swindled away by unscrupulous merchants from Medicine King Valley... My father died in a fit of anger. I had no money and was too young to think of any other way, so I had no choice but to sell myself on the street to bury my father."
"He appeared when I was at my most desperate." She smiled. "If it weren't for him, I might have been sold into a brothel by a slave trader."
It was an evening nine years ago. Eleven-year-old Bu Yuru sat blankly on the street, her father's body lying beside her. Just when she was at her most desperate, a fifteen-year-old boy who had just left the mountains appeared. He smiled gently: "Little sister, would you like to come with me to see the goldfish?"
She nodded subconsciously.
So that person helped her bury her father, took her away, and patiently taught her to read and write, and to practice martial arts.
A year later, he left for a while. When he came back, he told her that there was something called the "People's Ranking" outside, and that everyone on it was a bunch of worthless scoundrels.
He also said that he met a strange little girl who cried and laughed the first time they met, and that she made him spend a lot of money.
All she remembered was that the little girl was twelve years old, the same age as her.
Four years later, he said she was ready to graduate and he was preparing to leave. This time, he probably wouldn't come back.
She had gotten used to having him around, so she asked him if there was anything she could do to help him.
He smiled and said, "Let's establish an organization that only recruits promising young talents. As for what it will do... let's aim to be the best in the world."
He left, and she made it the goal she would strive for her entire life.
.........
"That's how it is. Strictly speaking, he should be my master," Bu Yuru said gently.
"What's your organization called?" Li Jianshi asked.
In her previous life, she had never heard of Wu Qiong establishing any organization, nor had she heard of Bu Yurou.
Su Mubai's eyes also flickered; she had never heard of such a thing in her previous life.
"Since you don't know yet, it's not convenient for me to say," Bu Yuru said with a smile. "Why don't you go ask him yourselves?"
Several days later, at the gate of the imperial city, the two silently watched Bu Yuru's carriage drive away. In the end, she did not go to see Wu Qiong.
Perhaps she was waiting for Wu Qiong to come to her in person.
The two stopped talking, entered the city, and headed straight for the palace.
The guards let them pass, and the two were led to the palace by a eunuch. In the reception room of the palace, Wu Qiong lay lazily on a recliner, chatting with Ye Qingxuan, who was abstaining from sex, while eating the medicine that Bai Xuanji fed him.
Upon seeing the two, Wu Qiong's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Xiao Bai, Shi'er, thank you for your hard work."
Su Mubai nodded: "It's good that you're alright."
Li Jianshi, however, couldn't contain himself and asked, "Brother Qiong, do you know Bu Yurou?"
"Yes, I know him." Wu Qiong nodded. "He's my apprentice."
He asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Li Jianshi pursed her lips slightly: "Then why don't you say so?"
Wu Qiong was baffled: "You didn't ask me."
Li Jianshi: "..."
How can you ask me something you don't know, you idiot!
