Chapter 145 - 145: 145. You will definitely regret this later (updated)

After returning home from the Battle Arena, Su Liang took the medical kit and went to the Duke Qin’s mansion on horseback alone to give Old Master Qin a follow-up consultation.

Old Master Qin’s complexion was quite good. After Su Liang performed acupuncture on him, and as it was approaching noon, Lady Qin insisted on having her stay for lunch.

Thinking about going back home alone and being unable to cook decent meals, Su Liang decided to stay.

In the afternoon, Qin Yujin returned home and asked Su Liang to stay with her until Ning Jing finished her exams and came back home.

Su Liang said that she wanted to practice martial arts and there was no suitable place for that in the Qin Residence, so Qin Yujin let her go.

Lian Shun talked to Duanmu Che to confirm whether Su Liang was wearing a human skin mask, but unexpectedly, no one was at Su Family’s house, and Su

Liang hadn’t returned.

Lian Shun went out for a while but couldn’t find Su Liang, so he returned.

He strolled around Su Family residence and was attracted to the training ground, so he decided to study the martial arts equipment that Su Liang and Ning Jing trained with.

Feeling hungry, he went to the kitchen and ate the meat buns that Su Liang had made for Ning Jing in the morning, which he had not brought with him completely.

By the time Su Liang came back home, she found an unwelcome guest.

Originally, Lian Shun intended to act in secret, but after waiting for a long time, he changed his mind and greeted Su Liang directly.

“I’m Lian Shun, the cousin of Prince Duanmu Che. We met this morning at the Battle Arena,” Lian Shun greeted with a fist and palm salute.

Su Liang frowned, “What brings Master Lin to my house without invitation?”

“I apologize. You weren’t at home and it was cold outside, so I came in to wait, and also ate your meat buns,” Lian Shun said with a smile.

He was observing Su Liang’s reaction.

“Two meat buns, 500 taels each,” Su Liang snorted lightly.

Lian Shun jumped up in shock, “Young lady, in broad daylight, you’re openly robbing me!”

Su Liang bent down, drew a knife, and pointed it at Lian Shun, “If the fifth prince sent you, I don’t know exactly what he meant. Either make it clear, or don’t leave!”

When Lian Shun suddenly introduced himself, Su Liang recognized him as the masked man she had fought with in the alley that day.

After hearing Lian Shun’s voice, Su Liang felt she had heard it somewhere before, and then remembered that on the night she and Ning Jing went to rescue Luo Rong, Lian Shun had “drifted” nearby and greeted them.

In this way, Su Liang guessed that Lian Shun had come to the capital city only last night.

And today, it was Duanmu Che who sent Lian Shun to test her.

Because there had been no killing intent during their fight.

About this, Su Liang’s only feeling was that Duanmu Che was mentally ill!

She had visited him three times, finally being taken in by Duanmu Chen the third time, and eventually had to kneel before Duanmu Che, but she didn’t even get a chance to talk normally.

She had given up, but Duanmu Che had come to cause trouble for no reason, it was baffling!

Seeing Su Liang’s cold face, Lian Shun sighed, “Forget it, forget it. I don’t know why my cousin always suspects that you’re fake. He believes in his intuition, and I believe in mine too! How can a spy be so brazen?!” Su Liang was taken aback.

Lian Shun’s few words were packed with great information.

It made Su Liang’s puzzlement about Duanmu Che suddenly clear!

So he thought Su Liang was an impostor, suspecting her as a spy?!

Seeing Su Liang’s reaction, Lian Shun asked earnestly, “Miss Su, are you a spy?”

Su Liang snorted lightly, “I am.”

Lian Shun laughed, “You can’t joke about such matters. My cousin suspects that you are disguised. I happen to know the Disguise Technique and fought with you to get close to you, I apologize.”

Su Liang’s heart moved – Disguise Technique? She was very interested in this.

“I went back and told him that you hadn’t disguised yourself, and guess what my cousin said? He suspected that you were wearing a human skin mask! ” Lian Shun straightforwardly sold out Duanmu Che.

However, to be honest, Su Liang didn’t think Duanmu Che was overly suspicious or mentally ill.

After hearing the inside story, she felt that Duanmu Che was just being cautious, which was understandable.

After all, in a certain sense, the current Su Liang was indeed fake, and indeed very different from the original owner.

It was because Qi Yan had checked that the original owner seldom went out in the capital city and knew few people, so Su Liang didn’t pretend to be weak on purpose. After all, pretending wasn’t a long-term plan, so she just acted as she pleased.

However, her drastic change had been noticed and suspected by someone, and that person was Duanmu Che.

The original owner was saved by Duanmu Che. Although she didn’t know the

details, it was clear that Duanmu Che knew the original owner, and his dislike for Su Liang was because of the original owner’s behavior.

Seeing Su Liang remaining silent, Lian Shun blinked, “You’re not really wearing a human skin mask, are you?”

Su Liang snapped back to reality, and asked in return, “Aren’t you afraid that I’m really a spy and will kill you to silence you, now that you’ve exposed your identity and intentions so easily?”

Lian Shun smiled faintly, “Your cousin knows I came to you. If you kill me, it would be hard to cover up. If you were really a spy, you would do your best to hide your identity.”

“I don’t have a human skin mask.” Su Liang said, rubbing behind her ear and lower jaw a few times, “If you have a human skin mask, name your price, I want to buy one.”

Seeing this, Lian Shun nodded, “I believe you. But I don’t have such a treasure, and if I did, I wouldn’t sell it.”

“Is there anything else you need to confirm? I have a birthmark on my body, but your cousin probably doesn’t know about it.” Su Liang said. She had a plum blossom-shaped birthmark on her right shoulder.

Lian Shun’s smile deepened, “That’s enough, that’s enough! Miss Su, please don’t mind. My cousin was born into the royal family, and he has been poisoned several times since he was a child. He even had spies planted by his side to harm him, so he developed a habit of overthinking things!”

Su Liang found that Lian Shun appeared to be flippant on the surface, but was actually very good at talking. Saying Duanmu Che was paranoid was his way of showing goodwill towards her.

Su Liang nodded slightly, “Given the fifth prince’s status, he can never be too cautious.”

Hearing this, Lian Shun’s eyes brightened, and he gave a thumbs up, “Su Xiaoliang, you are truly a magnanimous young lady! I will beat up my cousin for bullying you later!”

“There’s no need,” Su Liang shook her head, “Is there anything else you need?”

“Yes!” Lian Shun nodded immediately, “My cousin is on the verge of death, and I heard that you cured Old Master Qin’s stroke. Can you also save him? No matter what your demands are, I will agree on his behalf. If he dares to disobey, I will sell him to Zuixiang Building!”

A baffled look appeared on Su Liang’s face, “Zuixiang Building is…?”

“A small brothel on our side! I’ll treat you to a visit when you come to my house! I’ll make sure to return your meat buns at that time!” Lian Shun said with a full smile.

Su Liang’s mouth twitched slightly, “As long as he’s willing, I can treat him.”

“Then let’s go!” Lian Shun picked up Su Liang’s medicine box from the stone table.

Su Liang stood still, “I have one more condition.”

Lian Shun chuckled, “Su Xiaoliang, just name your conditions!”

“You have to teach me the Disguise Technique,” Su Liang said. Lian Shun was taken aback for a moment, “Is that all?”

Su Liang nodded, “That’s all.”

Lian Shun’s eyes lit up with joy, “No problem! Anytime!”

“Let’s go.” Now that Su Liang Imew the cause of the matter, she had no objection to Duanmu Che and thought they could talk.

Although she was a fake, she wasn’t entirely so. Nobody would know except for her and Ning Jing.

Back to the present.

Su Liang met Duanmu Che again during her fourth visit.

Upon hearing Lian Shun’s words, Duanmu Che showed no intention of coming out, nor did he speak.

Lian Shun rolled up his sleeves, “Su Xiaoliang, Little Cheche’s garden here is

quite nice. Let Old Huang take you to have a look! I’ll peat in up first Detore calling you in!”

Huang Bo received Lian Shun’s eye signal and hurriedly walked over, politely saying, “Miss Su, let this old servant take you to the garden for a walk!” “Alright.” Su Liang remained calm and followed Huang Bo away.

Lian Shun entered, closed the door, walked up to Duanmu Che, pretended to slap his face, but suddenly changed direction and mussed up his hair instead.

“Little Cheche, I’ve checked all the boxes. No human skin mask. If she were a spy, I’d cut my head off and let you kick it like a ball!” Lian Shun said.

Duanmu Che frowned, “Are you sure you haven’t been blinded by her beauty and tricked by her?”

Lian Shun glared at Duanmu Che, “Would I harm you? If there were such a capable spy, what’s the point of getting close to you? Your brothers are all fighting for the imperial throne, while you’re just waiting for death!”

Duanmu Che’s face darkened, “How can her transformation in just over a year be explained? It’s impossible.”

Lian Shun said irritably, “What kind of explanation do you want? A young girl, once weak and protected, loses her memory after her family is destroyed. Can’t she change and become a new person? Does a woman have to be weak and unable to stand on her own to be normal? I think you’re the abnormal one! It’s okay that you’re cautious, but you’ve never lived outside the capital city, and your experience is too limited! Just because you can’t do something, doesn’t mean others can’t! What’s impossible for ordinary people isn’t necessarily impossible for everyone!”

Duanmu Che’s face stiffened, “I never thought women had to be weak.”

“Don’t deny it, you’re just prejudiced against her.” Lian Shun sighed, “In any case, if her appearance is correct, she is the real Su Liang.”

Duanmu Che fell into a long silence.

Lian Shun leaned back on the soft couch, closed his eyes as if napping, not urging him to make a decision.

“If she really is Su Liang, and she has the skills she has now, someone must be cultivating her behind the scenes. Su Liang might still become a spy.” Duanmu Che spoke again, presenting a new view.

Lian Shun covered his face with both hands and sighed, “Little Cheche, who scared you like this? People can occasionally have more trust in each other. The only thing you should consider now is how to survive! With the way you look now, she doesn’t have to harm you, you don’t have much longer to live! Are you still afraid of her treating you?”

Duanmu Che fell silent again and after a while said, “Before my health improves, I won’t agree to any of her terms.”

Lian Shun stood up and snorted, “Little Cheche, you’re so stubborn that it’s infuriating! If you weren’t my brother, I would’ve beaten you up already! Mark my words, you will regret this.”

He left the room after speaking, “I’m going to get Su Xiaoliang to come in and give you an acupuncture treatment! She’s a good person, not holding a grudge for what you did earlier. If you still don’t trust her, that’s up to you, but keep your mouth shut.. If you can’t speak properly, don’t speak at all! If you offend her again, I won’t help you!”
