Chapter 95: Out Shopping

Liu Rushuang clenched her fists, as she sensed the sickly lovey-dovey sensation he was giving off. Then, she put her head down to continue eating like how she did at first. After a short while, she finished and put her chopsticks down.

Although Nangong Ba only took a few bites, he saw that Liu Rushuang had put her chopsticks down and immediately put his own down too. To make his baby crawl into his bed, he had to be on his best behavior. “Baby, are you full?” He then asked with an affectionate voice.

Liu Rushuang heard the word ‘Baby’ and couldn’t help but feel sick. “Yes,” she said flatly.

Nangong Ba smiled. “Then shall we go out now?” He softly suggested.

“Sure,” replied Liu Rushuang with an emotionless look on her face.

After Liu Rushuang stepped out the door, she pulled out a Complexion Binding Pill and swallowed it.

Nangong Ba graves the gold face mask that covered his eyes and eyebrows from a maid.

Neither of them shared a word.

When they stepped out of the restaurant, commoners were in deep conversation as they surrounded the palanquin.

“Who’s the maid dressed in white with her arms tied? Why’s she standing in front of Nangong Ba?”

“I don’t know, but she really looks like she couldn’t care less about Nangong Ba.”

…

Nangong Ba ignored what everyone was said, and hurried over to the palanquin when he saw Liu Rushuang get in. “Baby, be careful,” he cried.

The palanquin was made out of yellow and white pine wood. Apart from the roof and floor, there were decorative carvings on all four sides, which looked exquisite with golden tassels hanging from both sides. There were pale pink sashes on the window and the door, which swayed with the Spring breeze. With both the sashes and tassels swaying, the palanquin looked divine.

Liu Rushuang’s mouth twitched when she saw looked the front of the palanquin. He truly was the richest man in the Capital. Even his palanquin looked so high class!

Ignoring Nangong Ba’s sweet talk, she gracefully walked over to the wooden bar and into the palanquin.

Nangong Ba smiled and followed her in.

Commomers all around saw Liu Rushuang step inside and became even more enthralled in conversation.

“Why would Nangong Ba let a maid sit in his palanquin?”

“That maid looks so ordinary. Don’t tell me that’s the type Nangong Ba goes for?”

“Since he likes her, why did he tie her hands up?”

…

Liu Rushuang naturally heard all kinds of conversations outside, but seeing as Nangong Ba didn’t care, why should she?

Four assassins dressed in black saw the two of them step inside, then raised the palanquin. According to Nangong Ba instructions, they took the most high class street in the Capital, located near the imperial palace.

There were jewelry, silks, cosmetics, stationary, books, paintings, musical instruments, Xiangqi [1]and more. They had everything in the latest styles, and in excellent quality no less. People who gathered there were all wealthy.

There were twelve beautiful women dressed in red behind the palanquin. Several of them reached their heads out and glared furiously at the chair, as their envy turned to hatred. They hated how Liu Rushuang ignored Nangong Ba and how she stole his affections.

Nangong Ba was not only arrogant but also had to have things go his way. Nangong Ba smiled softly and served Liu Rushuang some tea. “Sweetheart, you must be thirsty. Drink some tea,” he said with a voice more melodic than a Guqin.

Liu Rushuang sat inside the palanquin, then took a sip of tea.

Nangong Ba really wanted Liu Rushuang to look him right in the eyes, but on the road, no matter how he spoiled her, she didn’t care.

Eventually, they were about to reach the Capital’s most high class street.

However, abgroup of people appeared on the road, blocking the palanquin’s path.
