In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!-Chapter 131: A Price Paid in Gold

Yue Mingxuan straightened his body, lowered the bed curtains, and then raised his voice to call the others back into the room.

When Rong Qinglei entered, he first looked Yue Mingxuan up and down carefully before asking, "I heard you shout earlier. Are you alright?"

Yue Mingxuan shook his head.

He did not want too many people to know about the missing snake eggs.

The matter itself was already strange and he did not wish to drag more people into it.

At this moment, Wu Bingjian seemed to have found an outlet for his anger.

He raised his foot, intending to stomp on the snake’s corpse on the ground.

Yue Mingxuan looked at him coldly and said, "Don’t say I didn’t warn you. That Lovesick Snake is poisonous all over its body, and dead snakes are even more dangerous. If you think your life is too long, go ahead and stomp on it."

Of course, this was something Yue Mingxuan made up to scare him.

Facing such a small creature that remained faithful until death, he could not bear to see it insulted even after it had died, especially by someone like Wu Bingjian.

Yue Mingxuan untied the pouch at his waist and bent down as if to collect the snake’s body.

In truth, he used his mind to move the snake’s corpse into his jade bracelet storage.

Seeing Yue Mingxuan tie the pouch closed, Wu Bingjian wanted to say something, but did not dare to speak.

Yue Mingxuan glanced at him with clear contempt.

A heartless man like this was not even worth a snake.

Once everything was settled, Yue Mingxuan extended his hand toward Wu Bingjian. "The money."

With a bitter expression, Wu Bingjian took out a banknote from his robe and handed it over.

After glancing at the amount written on it, Yue Mingxuan nodded in satisfaction and put the banknote away.

Earning two hundred taels of gold so easily put Yue Mingxuan in an excellent mood.

He stepped forward and patted Rong Qinglei on the shoulder. "You treated me to tea earlier. Now I’ll treat you to pork knuckle."

A faint smile appeared on Rong Qinglei’s face.

He liked Yue Mingxuan like this, full of energy and life, with a hint of cleverness.

Seeing his smile made Rong Qinglei feel refreshed and spirited as well.

Having lost a large sum of money, Wu Bingjian naturally did not arrange a carriage to send them back.

Yue Mingxuan did not mind at all.

The scenery along the way was pleasant and enjoying the early spring view was a kind of pleasure in itself.

Traveling together with a beauty was something Rong Qinglei could only wish for, so he was naturally very happy.

The two of them slowly walked toward West Street along the small road outside Wu Bingjian’s residence.

Early spring carried a soft and tender green color, dyeing the path they walked with fresh life and vitality.

Although Yue Mingxuan was walking on the road, his heart had already flown to the pork knuckle shop.

He had not eaten meat for several days now.

Since this time he was paying with his own money, he planned to eat as much as he wanted.

"Prince Rong, is the shop you mentioned really that famous?"

Even while almost drooling, he did not forget to ask Rong Qinglei again to make sure.

Rong Qinglei looked at Yue Mingxuan who is swallowing his saliva and a smile that he could not wipe away appeared on his face.

Even the way Yue Mingxuan swallowed his saliva made him look cute in Rong Qinglei’s eyes.

"I’ve heard that this shop is very famous in Nanxie Kingdom. I just don’t know why the owner came to Beirong."

Yue Mingxuan thought for a moment and said, "Beirong is more lively, I guess."

Rong Qinglei smiled without agreeing or disagreeing.

According to his secret guards’ investigation, the shop owner had been bullied badly by a prince of Nanxie, which forced him to bring his whole family and move to Beirong.

The root of the matter actually lay with his only daughter.

However, Rong Qinglei did not want Yue Mingxuan to know about these hidden details.

Yue Mingxuan carried a kind of innocence that Rong Qinglei both admired and longed for, making him want to protect it without even realizing it.

At this moment, on the official road beside them, a pitch black carriage rushed past at high speed.

Inside the carriage, Shang Qinghua had originally been resting with his eyes closed.

However, for some unknown reason, when the carriage passed by Yue Mingxuan and Rong Qinglei, he suddenly glanced outside as if possessed.

"Stop the carriage."

His voice carried a hint of coldness.

Yue Mingxuan looked in confusion at the carriage that suddenly stopped in front of him.

The entire carriage was jet black and it was obvious at a glance that it was made from fine black iron.

Rong Qinglei stood quietly at the side without speaking.

He had already seen the unique emblem of the Xishang royal family on the carriage and he felt that he and Shang Qinghua truly met each other wherever fate led.

At first, Yue Mingxuan did not know that the person inside the carriage was Shang Qinghua.

It was not until he heard a cold voice say, "Get on," that cold sweat broke out all over his body.

What bad luck, running into this perverted men the moment he went out, he muttered inwardly.

The imperial capital of Beirong was not small, but it was not huge either.

Why was it that no matter where he went, he always ran into these princes and nobles?

After thinking for a moment, Yue Mingxuan stiffly refused to get into the carriage.

Outside the carriage was at least a public place.

If he were dragged inside and killed, no one would even know.

Seeing that Yue Mingxuan did not obey, a trace of anger appeared on Shang Qinghua’s face.

However, because he had urgent matters to attend to, he forcibly suppressed it.

After glancing at the sky, he coldly said to the driver, "Go."
