A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times

In the evening, there were still many people coming to Simei Pavilion.

Until the hour of Hai, Wu Ying still had not come back.

Whenever Su Mo had free time, she would stand at the door and look to see if Wu Ying had come back.

She did not wait for Wu Ying to return, but instead a group of annoying people came.

Li Wenxuan and his group of alcoholic, playboy friends.

He heard that a different kind of store had opened here, so he brought a group of wealthy young masters to come have fun.

Seeing Su Mo standing with her arms crossed at the door, Li Wenxuan immediately fawned over and ran over.

"Female warrior, this store was actually opened by you?" Li Wenxuan laughed and said.

The ghosts of Qinglin Garden did not scare them away, instead they even opened a store here?

Su Mo glanced at him, in a bad mood, and did not want to talk much.

"Female warrior, are you still living comfortably in Qinglin Garden? Have you...encountered anything strange?" Li Wenxuan tentatively asked.

"Brother Wenxuan, who is this young lady?" A young master walked over and asked. Seeing Su Mo's good figure, he ogled her inappropriately up and down.

"If you look at me like that again, do you believe I'll gouge out your eyes?" Su Mo looked coldly at that person.

"You..." That person was about to get angry when Li Wenxuan immediately pulled him back.

"Brother Wang, Brother Wang, don't get excited..." Li Wenxuan leaned to his ear and whispered: "This tigress has very powerful martial arts, you are not her match!"

"If you want to play, then go inside and play. If not, then scram, and stop annoying me!" Su Mo said impatiently.

"Yes, yes, we'll go inside immediately!" Li Wenxuan hurriedly pulled the others inside.

On the stage in the lobby, Xia Miaomiao wore a light blue dress, with a blue veil over her face, and was playing the zither on stage.

Li Wenxuan saw Xia Miaomiao and ogled at her.

"This beauty, she does play the zither quite well." A man said.

Sang Li walked over and asked, "Are you gentlemen going to play in the lobby or go upstairs to the private rooms?"

Li Wenxuan pointed at Xia Miaomiao on stage, "Is that beauty with you all?"

Sang Li looked at Xia Miaomiao on stage, "Yes."

"Wow, not only is she cute and pretty, but she's so talented too."

"Brother Wenxuan, since you like her so much, make her come down to accompany you!" Another person said with a laugh, as if it was only natural.

When Sang Li heard this, she couldn't help but knit her willowy brows.

"You don't understand. A beauty is meant to be appreciated, she's not the same as those flowers in the brothels!" Li Wenxuan knew Su Mo was outside, so he didn't dare make a move on Xia Miaomiao here.

"If you gentlemen are not here to play games, then please leave. If you want to find pleasure, then go somewhere else." Sang Li said coldly.

"Hmph, opening for business yet chasing away customers, have you ever seen someone do that? Do you know who we are? We're all the wealthy young masters in this Nanchang city. If you don't treat us well, how do you expect to earn money?" Someone said disdainfully.

Although they opened the shop to earn money, it was only to support themselves, not to build a business empire here.

Sang Li glanced at that person, her eyes cold.

"What are you trying to do?!" Gu Zhi saw this scene and immediately ran over, shielding Sang Li behind him.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Li Wenxuan hurriedly smoothed things over, "We came to play games, there's no need for unpleasantness!"

"Li Wenxuan, if you dare make a move on Miaomiao again, do you believe I'll castrate you!" Just then, Su Mo happened to walk in.

She looked at Gu Zhi, "Gu Zhi, take Sister Li away, I'll... take care of this lot!"

Su Mo glanced at them meaningfully.

Gu Zhi heard Su Mo's words and knew of her and Wu Ying's high martial arts skills these past two days, so he pulled Sang Li's hand and went to the counter.

"Sister, are you alright?" Gu Zhi asked with concern.

Sang Li retracted her hand, "I'm fine, just angry."

Sang Li looked over and saw Su Mo had already brought the four men to a table in the lobby.

"Go brew them a pot of tea." Sang Li suddenly said. 𝗳r𝚎e𝘄𝐞b𝚗𝗼ve𝚕.co𝗺

"Sister, you still want to brew them tea?" Gu Zhi frowned.

Sang Li took out a paper package from her sleeve and handed it to Gu Zhi, smiling, "Of course, treat your guests well."

When Gu Zhi saw the paper package in Sang Li's hand, he seemed to understand something. He took the package, quirked his lips, "Alright, I'll go do it now!"

This stuff wouldn't take effect immediately after drinking. It would only take effect after they drank wine, interacting with the alcohol.

Their faces would break out in blisters. To completely heal, they would have to prick each blister, which would be very painful.

If they didn't drink any wine within a day, the medicine would be ineffective. But if they drank wine, it would take effect.

So... Sang Li looked over.

It was up to fate.

...

By nearly the hour of Zi, they were about to close up the store and return to Qinglin Garden.

But up until now, Wu Ying still hadn't come back, and Su Mo was starting to get anxious.

"Su Su, maybe Wu Ying already went back to Qinglin Garden first. Why don't we go back and take a look?" Xia Miaomiao suggested.

Su Mo thought it was possible and immediately said, "Alright, let's close up and hurry back!"

After returning to Qinglin Garden, Su Mo immediately went to Wu Ying's room.

But she discovered the room was empty, the bed neatly made, Wu Ying hadn't come back at all.

"Wu Ying, Wu Ying." Su Mo called out several times but no one responded.

Su Mo immediately ran to the yard.

"Wu Ying hasn't come back at all!" Su Mo huffed, "What's going on? Even if we argued, you can't just disappear! So annoying!"

"Could something have come up that he had to go out?" Sang Li said.

"Then he should have told me! Disappearing without a word! Hmph, if he comes back, I won't pay him any attention!" Su Mo angrily returned to her room.

"Master, don't be angry at Master. He must have had an emergency!" Yu Yifan chased after her, speaking up for Wu Ying.

The others looked at each other. They had never asked about Wu Ying's identity.

But Sang Li knew Wu Ying's identity was definitely not simple, so some things were certainly kept secret from Su Mo.

They didn't know when they would get a lead on the treasure map either.

Xiao Han uncouthly yawned next to them, covering his mouth with his hand. He flopped onto Xia Miaomiao's shoulder, "I'm exhausted today, let's hurry and rest. Wu Ying will definitely come back himself!"

"Sister Li, Xiao Han and I are going back to our room." Xia Miaomiao said.

"Mm." Sang Li smiled at them, "Go rest quickly."

After everyone left, Sang Li sat alone on the stone bench in the yard, seemingly lost in thought about something.

"Sister..." Gu Zhi's voice came.

Sang Li turned in surprise, "Gu Zhi? Why haven't you gone to rest yet?"

Gu Zhi sat down next to her, looking at her, "Sister, you have something on your mind!"

Sang Li glanced at him. She didn't speak, surprised that Gu Zhi could tell she had something on her mind.

"Can you tell me about it?" Gu Zhi tentatively asked.

Sang Li hesitated, looking at Gu Zhi's face. His expectant look made Sang Li's heart skip a beat.

She had to admit, Gu Zhi's face was truly handsome, and very pure and innocent.

In the end, Sang Li did not speak. She slowly stood up, "It's late, rest early."

Having said that, she turned and left the yard.

Gu Zhi watched her retreating figure, feeling downhearted.

Why was Sister unwilling to tell him? Did she not trust him?
