Splendid Twins

Si Yao was anxious to leave, but the man in front of her kept pestering her:

"Could you please give me another prediction, young lady?"

"Today is over, let's do it another day."

Si Yao stood up and packed her things, her tone slightly impatient.

"No, it's just one word. Even if you are in a hurry, it's too late!"

The man's words made Si Yao pause suddenly, then she looked him up and down and suddenly smiled playfully:

"Since you insist, let's get started."

Si Yao put the things back on the table. The man seemed not to notice the atmosphere between them. He sat happily at the table and reached out to pick up a pen. Si Yao was calm and made a "please" gesture.

The man picked up the pen and wrote with great speed, and a big character appeared on the paper, with such force that it penetrated the paper and penetrated deeply into the wood.

As the saying goes, handwriting reflects the character of the writer, but this saying has no relevance here. The man looks nonchalant, but the handwriting he writes is majestic, solemn and dignified.

Si Yao glanced at him and stared at the man:

"You have good handwriting and great talent. It seems you came prepared?"

The man nodded casually:

"The girl is right."

Si Yao crossed her arms and said calmly:

"Purpose?"

"I want to follow you."

This made Si Yao frown slightly: "What?"

The man suddenly stopped laughing and said in a serious tone:

"I have been observing you for many days. Ever since you entered Zigui Town on the day of the Qing Festival, I knew that you were the one I was looking for."

There was a hint of surprise in Si Yao's eyes. He even knew that she had deliberately chosen Qingming Festival?

"What if I don't agree?"

The man smiled mysteriously, stood up slightly and leaned close to Si Yao's ear:

"A body with two souls? Very interesting."

Si Yao's heart trembled when she heard this, and she couldn't help but feel nervous, but the man had an appreciative expression and said with a smile:

"My name is Gou Huan, I don't know what to call you, young lady?"

Si Yao said expressionlessly:

"Si Yao."

The man smiled and replied, "Nice to meet you."

"I'm leaving here, are you sure you want to follow me?"

The man walked around the table and chuckled:

"It's an honor to be the girl's vanguard."

Seeing this man's glib tongue, Si Yao said in a bad tone:

"Gou Huan, has anyone ever told you that you look ugly when you smile?"

The man was almost shocked by Si Yao's words:

"I'm ugly? I'm handsome, elegant, suave, handsome, talented, and look like Pan An. Who dares to say I'm ugly?"

Si Yao took two steps back and turned to leave while he was still talking. After confirming with her eyes, she knew that she had met a narcissist and had wasted her time in vain!

This man possesses a pair of yin-yang eyes, and can see things that ordinary people cannot see in their lifetime. Indeed, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by, and being born with it makes his peers quite fearful!

After all, no one wants to expose themselves completely to another person!

His words "a body with two souls" made her feel strongly alert from the bottom of her heart. The most powerful beast in the jungle is not the tiger. The one that can give people a fatal blow is the poisonous snake hidden in the grass, which is cleverly disguised and can kill people when they are least prepared.

That's not right. She came here after Zhou Yao died. In the martial arts world, this kind of thing is considered a soul traveling through time. Besides, she built a cenotaph for Zhou Yao, so there shouldn't be any mistakes in handling the ghosts she sent away.

Why did he say it was a body of two souls?

Perhaps, he saw that this body had two souls?

A cold look flashed across her eyes. It wasn't her who killed anyone or took their body. All this could only be described as God's will. She looked exactly like Zhou Yao, even their birth dates were the same. No matter who it was, don't even think about hurting her, including this body!

Since he came to her on purpose, she was not afraid. She had a clear conscience anyway, so it all depended on her ability.

After the man boasted for a while, he found that Si Yao was nowhere to be seen. He didn't look anxious at all, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: How interesting.

Then he took out an extremely ordinary mask from somewhere and put it on. Without paying any attention to the stares from others, he swaggered in the direction where Si Yao had left.

At this moment, in Shangjing, Prince Li received a secret letter: Zhou Yu disappeared on his way back to Beijing.

He folded the letter and put it back in, then called Tang Ren in to discuss the matter.

"What do you think about this?"

"Strike first is the strongest!"

"Can you be more specific?"

"When the news reaches the Duke of Zhenguo, His Highness will have less to plot against."

Prince Li nodded: "It coincides with my idea."

After that, he went into the inner room to clean up. Tang Ren wrote a note with his left hand on the table that was not in Daiyue's handwriting. When Prince Li came out, he handed it to him respectfully with both hands:

"I wish your Highness all the best!"

"It's too early to say that. Mother once reminded me that we can't speak of it until it's done."

The Prince of Li's light words startled Tang Ren so much that he immediately said in panic:

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was arrogant."

"It's okay. I know what's going on."

These words, which were intended to comfort people, did not work. Tang Ren felt remorseful. How could he make such a stupid mistake?

Prince Li may have seen his shame and said:

"I'm going to see Zhou Wan, you don't have to follow me."

"Yes."

In the exclusive box of Yan Gui Tower, Li Wangjing was waiting for Zhou Wan. Various kinds of exquisite pastries were placed on the table in front of them, and the aroma of tea filled the entire box.

Zhou Wan, dressed in jewels, pushed the door open. Prince Li was originally thinking about something, but when he saw Zhou Wan with her hair full of pearls and jade hairpins, he sneered in his heart. Did this idiot wear all the jewelry on her head?

"Wanwan greets His Highness. I walked a little slowly on the way. I hope Your Highness will not blame me."

"Of course not. I am very happy that you can come."

The two sat opposite each other, and Prince Li poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zhou Wan. This gesture made her feel very happy.

It turns out that what that mean girl Zhou Ying said was right, the royal descendants were of extraordinary nobility, they were born in wealth and grew up in fine buildings, so naturally they didn't like simple and elegant things, including people.

She dressed up carefully just to please His Highness.

"What has Wanwan been doing lately?"

Zhou Wan took a sip of tea and whispered:

"I read women's books, did some embroidery, and followed my mother to sort out the account books. It was very boring."

Prince Li nodded perfunctorily. He was not interested in these things, so he deliberately looked for topics to talk about:

"Have you read the tea collection I gave you last time?"

"Of course, I also brewed some for my father to taste, and he praised me for my hard work."

Zhou Wan was not aware of Prince Li's seduction at all, and she even described in detail what happened in the Duke of Zhenguo's study.

King Li continued:

"Wanwan is really smart and gets it right away. I just found a puzzle and there's no one smart around me. How about Wanwan take it back and try it out?"

Zhou Wan's eyes lit up, and she felt a little elated:

"let me see."

Prince Li handed over the note with the greatest malice:

"Wanwan, you must not tell anyone else, lest people talk about me."

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will never reveal a single word to anyone."
