1535: He Was Actually Quite Manly That Way

He Was Actually Quite Manly That Way

Yaoyao was taken aback, but thought that there was nothing wrong with what he said.1

They did not know each other and there was no point in wasting their energy on that person.

The way he had decisively cut the woman off without giving her any chance made Yaoyao suddenly feel that he was actually quite manly that way.

He was better than some people who led others along despite not liking the person.

It was quite good of him to act that way.

A smile appeared on her lips and her impression of him improved slightly.

Beitang You raised an eyebrow when he noticed the change in her mood. He looked at her questioningly. "You seem to be happy about something."

"I've always been happy this way." Yaoyao blinked innocently. "I'm going upstairs to take my bath." She ran upstairs quickly after saying this.

Beitang You watched until she disappeared before calling over a few guards to station them outside her room to ensure her safety.

When Yaoyao was bathing in her room, she suddenly heard an argument going on downstairs and she could even vaguely hear Chen Jin's voice.

She finished her bath quickly.

After she was done and had put on her clothes, she went downstairs and saw that the entire inn was surrounded.

Beitang You was sitting in her chair and a man who looked like a steward was talking arrogantly to him.

Yaoyao stood away from the crowd and looked inside on tip-toe. She could not hear their conversation clearly and could only turn to ask Zhang Yu, who was next to her, about it. "What's going on, Uncle Zhang? Who are all these people?"

Zhang Yu said with slight exasperation, "This is all because of that lady just now."

Yaoyao was surprised. "The one that came after us from the horse-drawn carriage?"

"Yes." Zhang Yu nodded and said with some thought, "It looks like that lady must be interested in Master and does not want to give him up. Just look. She sent her men here to 'invite' him back to her place."

Yaoyao watched as both parties stood in a standoff and she was tongue-tied. "Is that really happening?"

"Yes, it is." Zhang Yu sighed.

"What's the story behind that lady?" Yaoyao asked. That lady must have a strong backing if she could act with such arrogance.

"She is the aristocrat daughter of Beaming Peace City's magistrate," Zhang Yu replied.

"Can a magistrate's daughter act so arrogantly?" Yaoyao was shocked.

"The magistrate of Beaming Peace City is probably about to be doomed," Zhang Yu said thoughtfully.

Yaoyao immediately understood the situation when she heard this.

Judging by how that lady's servants acted, she was about to tell that the magistrate of Beaming Peace City had probably bullied the people. Otherwise, their servants would not act with such impudence and even showed up here to make threats.

Unfortunately for them, the person they were facing was Beitang You. They were about to get into big trouble.

It was at that moment when Beitang You stood up and turned to Yaoyao to say, "Be good and stay here. I'll be back very soon."

Yaoyao walked over to him as she frowned and said, "Are you going with them?"

"Yes. I'm heading to the magistrate's office with them," Beitang You said as he lowered his eyes to look at her. A smile twinkled in his eye. "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine."

"Alright." Yaoyao nodded. However, when she realized how she reacted, she wanted to tell him she was not worried about him, but he had already turned to leave. All she could catch was the sight of his elegant figure disappearing at the door.

"Don't worry, Princess. Master will be fine." Zhang Yu did not follow Beitang You as he stayed behind to protect Yaoyao.

"I'm not worried about him at all, Uncle Zhang," Yaoyao quickly explained. That was strange. What did she do to make everyone think that she was worried for Beitang You?

She would never be worried about such an annoying guy like him!

Zhang Yu smiled at her benevolently and did not say anything more about it. He changed the topic instead. "Master had already instructed the inn to cook noodles for you while you were bathing upstairs. Do you want to have it upstairs or down here?"

Yaoyao looked at the empty lobby and said, "I'll have it upstairs."
