Chapter 342 Don't Be Too Confident

Not reaching out to hit the smiling person, Shen Xingwan could only say hello with a fake smile, "What a coincidence."

Du Langjun was wearing a headscarf and holding a can of wine in his hand. He invited with a smile, "It's a rare encounter. Let me treat you to dinner. I just happened to have ordered a table at the best restaurant here."

Shen Xingwan has always felt that he is too familiar and his enthusiasm is overwhelming.

"No, mom is still waiting for us to go back for dinner." Shen Xingwan decisively refused.

Du Langjun showed a disappointed look, "You two girls are not giving me face. As we are in this industry, the most important thing is friendship. We are also destined to have a meal. You two girls don't have to think too much."

It sounds like if they don't agree, they are heartless and have evil intentions.

Shen Xingwan smiled softly and said, "Since Du Langjun sincerely invites you, then I would rather obey him than be respectful."

"You two girls, come with me. I will make sure you are satisfied with your meal."

Du Langjun led the way, and the two of them followed him towards the west of the city.

After walking for a while, he stopped in front of a large courtyard and introduced to them, "Most of the people who come here to eat are businessmen traveling from north to south."

The locals in Shangluo cannot afford such expensive food.

Shen Ruoyan raised his head and looked at the signboard "Canchun Wine House". The sword on his waist was half unsheathed and a cold light flashed, indicating that someone was leaving secretly.

"You two girls, please come in." Du Langjun made an inviting gesture.

Shen Xingwan walked inside, and Shen Ruoyan followed.

Du Langjun glanced at the sword at her waist curiously, "I didn't expect Miss Lin Yan to know how to use a sword."

Shen Ruoyan touched the sword on her waist dearly, "In our line of work, it's not easy to make ends meet. I'm a woman, and my mother was afraid that I would suffer, so she spent a lot of money to send me to learn kung fu since I was a child."

Du Langjun looked touched, "What a loving mother."

Shen Xingwan rolled his eyes without any trace. This Du Langjun always spoke in a greasy and hypocritical manner, which made people uncomfortable.

The yard is very nicely maintained, one of the best in a place like Shangluo.

With the courtyard as the center, the four buildings are where guests eat, and they can enjoy the scenery in the courtyard while eating.

They were taken to the second floor by the enthusiastic waiter, where there were ten tables and only half of them were occupied.

"Here are the guests, please." The waiter guided them to an empty table.

Probably because they were new faces, several other tables of guests looked over and looked at them curiously.

A bearded man said boldly, "You guys are just here, I haven't seen them before."

"We are a caravan that has just arrived." Du Langjun said.

The bearded man seemed to have lost interest and continued to drink with his friends at the table without asking any further questions.

The three of them sat down, and soon the wine and food were served.

If you don't eat, you won't get it. Shen Ruoyan works hard and doesn't treat his mouth badly.

Du Langjun ate elegantly and even gave them a glass of wine each.

After eating for a while, he asked seemingly unintentionally, "Why did you come to Shangluo all of a sudden? I thought you were going to the border."

Shen Xingwan remained calm and said calmly, "Oh, I asked around on the way and found out that the situation at the border is not good. After all, our caravan is not very strong, and my godmother doesn't want to take risks."

Du Langjun sighed to express his understanding. The world is indeed difficult, and it is not easy to make a living.

Shen Xingwan buried her head in eating. It was better not to see his face, otherwise she was afraid that she would lose all her appetite. This guy with poor acting skills still likes to be aggressive, which is very annoying to the eyes.

"Then when are you planning to return? We can go together and have someone to take care of you." Du Langjun continued to ask.

Here we are again, don't we just want to find out their whereabouts?

Shen Xingwan smiled and said, "I don't know, we all listen to our godmother."

Shen Xingwan had a stomachache after eating the meal, but Du Langjun kept talking from beginning to end. One nonsense after another, and one question after another.

Shen Xingwan suspected that he was preparing a physical attack and was going to use magic sound to stun him.

She maintained a high degree of concentration from beginning to end, dealing with him simply and clearly while ensuring that she was not distracted by him.

The two of them were going back and forth, it seemed like they were talking lively, but if you listen carefully, they actually said nothing.

Probably because he was thirsty, Du Langjun finally stopped and drank several sips of wine without talking.

Shen Xingwan's tense nerves finally relaxed.

"When the war starts, it becomes more and more difficult to do business. We have to find a way to sell goods into the royal city."

"The inspection in Wangcheng is very strict now, and it's hard to get things in."

"Most of the people at the border gate want to escape, and they can't sell their things at all..."

The businessmen at other tables were probably drunk too much. They were loudly discussing current affairs, complaining about the difficulty in doing business, and gossiping about the love affairs of King Beirong.

Shen Xingwan listened for a while and was only sure of one thing, that is, the emperor of Beirong was a lecherous person. Although he was older, he still maintained his majesty and only loved beauties.

Shen Ruoyan put down her chopsticks with a snap, "I'm full, let's go back, otherwise mother should worry."

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Du Lang. It's getting late, let's take a step forward." Shen Xingwan stood up and left decisively.

Du Langjun's eyes flashed, "The two sisters are here, let's sit down for a while. There will be a local song and dance performance here in the evening."

"You're welcome. We'll see you again when we have a chance. It's better for us to go home first." Shen Xingwan was really annoyed by him and refused forcefully.

Du Langjun's face also turned cold, "Are you two girls not giving me face?"

"Du Langjun, do you insist on forcing others to make things difficult for you?" Shen Xingwan also said coldly.

"I have to invite the two girls to watch today, please sit down." Du Langjun said forcefully.

Shen Ruoyan's hand has already grasped the sword, "Don't be too confident in your life."

Du Langjun looked serious, clapped his hands, and several people immediately came over.

This was going to be tough, but luckily Shen Xingwan and the others were prepared.

When I came with him, I met him on the street. Shen Ruoyan had already made a gesture without leaving any trace.

Shen Xingwan said to him, "Look outside."

They were sitting by the window, and when Du Langjun turned around, he was dodged.

On the opposite roof, there was a man in black pulling an arrow, and the arrow was pointed directly at his head.

Shen Xingwan finally figured out his weakness and didn't bother to pretend to be with him, "Do you think it's his arrows that are faster, or Yan'er's sword that's faster?"

Du Langjun's eyes suddenly became fierce. At this time, one of his men stood in the corner and shook his head at him.

Du Langjun immediately performed a dramatic face change and said with a smile, "I was just joking, the girl has a really hot temper."

Then he made a gesture of invitation, "Two girls, please go on your way, I won't send you off."

Shen Ruoyan kept retreating while staring at them warily.

Du Langjun looked at the two disappearing figures and snorted coldly, "I didn't expect it to be a hard fight."

Although the people in the restaurant noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere, they had no idea that a storm had almost come just now.
