Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Chapter 462 What a coincidence, it’s you again

In the evening.

In a tavern on the street, Yan Qinglan finished her business upstairs and came downstairs.

I was startled to see someone sitting in the lobby drinking.

It is him again!

"Sir, what a coincidence, we meet again." Yan Qinglan was very surprised.

Qin Beihuang just looked up and continued drinking without saying anything.

This cold attitude actually aroused Yan Qinglan's interest, and she walked forward and sat down.

"Young Master, are you drinking? Why are you drinking so many different kinds?" Yan Qinglan glanced at the table and saw that he had ordered six or seven different pots of wine.

But I just poured it out and tasted it.

"Miss, is there anything wrong?" Qin Beihuang did not raise his eyes.

"Sir, are you worried about something? Can I have a couple of drinks with you?" Yan Qinglan leaned his arms on the table, staring at the handsome face in a daze.

"No need, I'm done." Qin Beihuang finished the last glass of wine, then stood up to pay the bill and left.

"Sir, don't you want this wine anymore?" Yan Qinglan shouted hurriedly.

But the figure did not stop or look back, and left the tavern directly.

Yan Qinglan was not angry either. She raised the corners of her lips slightly and couldn't help but pour a glass of wine and sip it slowly.

"This guy is quite interesting. He looks like he's from out of town. Let's ask him about it."

The guard behind him responded respectfully: "Yes!"

After Qin Beihuang left the tavern, it was already dark, so he went straight back to the inn.

Behind the door, he quietly observed the movements downstairs.

It was not until late at night that I finally saw Yan Qinglan coming. As expected, she was also staying in this inn.

After Yan Qinglan said a few words to the waiter downstairs, she went straight upstairs and into the room.

Late at night, the inn returned to silence and the lights in each room were turned off.

But Qin Beihuang lay in bed and couldn't sleep all night.

After midnight, wisps of white smoke suddenly floated in from the door. Qin Beihuang noticed it immediately, his face changed, and he immediately covered his mouth and nose.

He watched the movements outside vigilantly. The person blowing the smoke didn't seem to have any intention of breaking in and left quickly.

There was a faint sound of very light footsteps coming from the inn.

After a while, the sound of fighting was heard.

Qin Beihuang was startled. He opened the door and took a quick look. Unexpectedly, he saw Yan Qinglan escaping from the room, with a black-clothed killer chasing him with a knife.

He immediately rushed forward with his sword, protected Yan Qinglan, blocked the knife that was slashing towards her, and kicked the black-clad killer away.

He pulled Yan Qinglan up and immediately fled back to the room. After locking the door, the killer in black had already chased him outside.

Yan Qinglan was still a little dazed, staring at Qin Beihuang in surprise and astonishment, "What a coincidence, it's you again!"

Qin Beihuang remained silent. He pulled her to the window and asked, "Jump down. I'll hold them back first."

Yan Qinglan felt a little happy in her heart, but pretended to be afraid and grabbed his sleeve, "I'm a weak woman, you want me to jump from here? If I don't die, I'll break my legs."

Hearing this, Qin Beihuang looked at the shaking door and saw that the killer outside was about to break in.

Then he grabbed Yan Qinglan's arm and said, "Hold me!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qinglan immediately put her arms around Qin Beihuang's waist.

Qin Beihuang leaped with his Qing Kung Fu skills and flew out of the window to the roof opposite.

He fled with Yan Qinglan.

I went specifically to the vicinity of Prince Rong's Mansion. There were a lot of patrolling soldiers here, so the killers didn't dare to chase me. It was very safe.

At the quiet alley entrance, Qin Beihuang finally let go of her, "It's safe here."

"Who are they to commit such a crime in Jincheng?"

Jincheng is the most prosperous city in Liyang, and Prince Rong also lives in Jincheng. It should be the safest place.

Yan Qinglan glanced back, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes, "Just a mortal enemy."

Coming back to her senses, she smiled brightly, "You and I are truly destined to meet. We met three times in one day, and you saved me twice."

"My name is Yan Qinglan, what's your name?"

"Looking at your skills, you don't seem like an ordinary person."

Qin Beihuang said in a deep voice: "Qin Beihuang."

When Yan Qinglan heard this name, her heart was shocked. Qin Beihuang! General Xuanwei?

He turned out to be Qin Beihuang!

"Mr. Qin, you saved me today. How about I treat you to dinner tomorrow?" After knowing his identity, Yan Qinglan became even more interested.

But Qin Beihuang's attitude was cold, "No need, it's just a small favor."

"You look like you're from Liyang, so you should be more familiar with this place than I am. I won't see you off. Goodbye."

After saying that, Qin Beihuang turned and left. No matter how Yan Qinglan called him, he did not stop.

He even felt annoyed and disappeared onto the roof with a leap.

Yan Qinglan looked in the direction he left, her eyes deep and a smile on her lips.

The next day, Yan Qinglan asked someone to find out Qin Beihuang's whereabouts.

"He was escorting Princess Rong to Liyang. He first dined at the Rong Palace, then wandered around the city's restaurants and taverns, ordering almost every kind of wine, but he didn't drink much."

Hearing this, Yan Qinglan's eyes flashed, and some speculations arose in his mind.

That night, the moon was high in the sky, and the monthly Oiran Contest at the Mingyue Tower, the largest building in Jincheng, had begun.

Qin Beihuang found a good seat early.

Admission costs twenty taels of silver per person, and free drinks and snacks are available.

But this wine is just mediocre.

The empty seats in the building were soon filled. As soon as the door closed and the sound of string music began, singing and dancing began.

And those top courtesans also appeared one after another.

It caused cheers.

The brothel's servants handed out the rosters one by one.

There were portraits of all the girls on it, with their names written on it.

It also describes how to play the Oiran Contest.

All guests can give a plum blossom branch to the girl they like, but each branch costs one or two taels of silver.

The girl who gets the most plum branches will be the top courtesan of the month.

The girl who is elected as the top courtesan tonight will choose one of the guests to spend the night with.

And serve Mingyue Tower’s signature wine.

The company of fine wine and beautiful women is what the guests who come tonight most yearn for.

But if you want to be chosen by the oiran, you have to leave a deep impression when giving flowers.

Qin Beihuang carefully looked through the portraits in the booklet, comparing them one by one with the girls who appeared below.

After the song and dance performance ended, the thirteen girls gathered on the round stage, waiting to be given flowers.

Most guests would give three or five branches as gifts, but only a few generous ones would spend several hundred taels to give to several girls.

When the flower delivery was almost over, Qin Beihuang observed for a while, thought about it in his mind, took out five hundred taels, and bought all the plum branches.

"Excuse me, sir, which girls are you going to give them to?" the flower seller asked respectfully.

Qin Beihuang glanced around and pointed at a woman in the album, "Miss Qiushui."

The guy was slightly surprised. "Just sending her?"

"Correct."

Then the waiter shouted loudly: "Master Qin, five hundred plum blossom branches, for Miss Qiushui!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in Mingyue Tower looked at Qin Beihuang.

Miss Qiu Shui was also startled. Looking at the handsome man, her heart was pounding. This was the young man who gave her the most flowers tonight.

In the corner, Yan Qinglan, who was dressed as a man, changed her expression and looked at Mr. Qin in shock.

It’s really Qin Beihuang!

His eyes suddenly turned cold.

He coldly punched the album and said, "I thought he was a gentleman, but I didn't expect he was also a lecher."
