Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 183: Improper Intentions

“Oh, Lord Messenger. Yes, yes, what you say is right indeed. It is my negligence.” The moment the innkeeper heard the Lord Messenger’s words, he immediately compensated with a smile, nod and bow. “I will give this lady and her companions rooms.” However, the innkeeper was a little perplexed. Previously, there were also others who had come by seeking lodging and were rejected by him, but the Lord Messenger did not interfere. Why was it that the Lord Messenger’s attitude was different this time? The innkeeper felt doubt rise in his heart, but he did not dare to think too deeply about it and urgently prepared rooms for Ling Chuxi and the rest.

“If that is the case, I thank you,” said Ling Chuxi to the Lord Messenger with a smile to indicate her thanks.

“You are most welcome,” replied the Lord Messenger of the Deity Temple. Once he saw Ling Chuxi’s smile, he was momentarily stunned before regaining his senses. “If there is anything troubling you, Miss, you can let me know. If I am able to help, I will definitely do so to the best of my abilities.”

“Thank you,” replied Ling Chuxi as she tugged the corners of her lips into a forced smile. This messenger from the Deity Temple was so impassioned that it was making her a little uncomfortable.

Upon the instruction of the Lord Messenger of the Deity Temple, the innkeeper immediately arranged for Ling Chuxi and the rest to enter their rooms. He was even more enthusiastic when he asked them what they wished to eat so that he could instruct the kitchen to prepare it for them. Ling Chuxi just instructed that the signature dishes of the inn be prepared for them. They would head downstairs later on to have their meal.

During dinner, only Ling Chuxi’s and the Lord Messenger’s groups took up a table each in the inn’s big dining hall. It seemed as though there were no other people who had come to seek lodging, or rather those who did come by had already been rejected.

The moment the Lord Messenger came downstairs, he looked in the direction of Ling Chuxi and the rest. Seeing Ling Chuxi, he smiled and gently nodded in her direction. Ling Chuxi smiled back with a superficial smile. However, when the messenger from the Deity Temple saw Ling Chuxi’s smile, he was entranced. He only came to his senses when Ling Chuxi turned away.

This was observed by Ling Yichen and it caused him to frown slightly. He kept on feeling like the attitude of this messenger from the Deity Temple towards Ling Chuxi was not quite right.

After dinner, Ling Chuxi returned to her own room. An attendant brought over hot water for her. She had a hot bath together with Little White. Then she brushed her hair and let out a yawn. Sitting in the carriage for so long had indeed left her a little tired.

At this moment, a knock was heard at her room door. Ling Chuxi thought that it was the attendant returning to take away the bathwater, so she stood up to open the door. When the door opened and she saw the person outside, Ling Chuix was a little stunned. The person outside her door was not the attendant, but rather the messenger from the Deity Temple.

“Good evening, Miss,” he said as he gave her a smile that he thought was very charming. “I’m not sure if dinner was to your taste? My name is Li Ruihong. May I know your name?”

“Lord Li, it is already so late. Is anything the matter?” asked Ling Chuxi with a frown as she looked at the person who appeared at her door. This person’s gaze was really disgusting. Even the blind could see that this messenger from the Deity Temple had improper intentions toward her.

“I have some matters that I wish to discuss in detail with you, Miss,” said Li Ruihong with a smile. “Aren’t you going to invite me in to have a seat? The air out here is very cold and so is the floor.” Li Ruihong had absolute confidence that the other party would not reject him. He was someone from the Deity Temple and the other party should be the miss of some big family. From the moment he set eyes on this young maiden, Li Ruihong’s heart could not remain calm. He really never thought that he would meet such a beauty in such a godforsaken place. Originally, he was still somewhat annoyed that he was sent to the capital to do things in such cold weather, but after meeting such a beautiful young maiden today, he suddenly felt that everything was worth it. Using some effort to win over this young maiden was also a good thing. This journey would not be so dull anymore.
