The rebellion in Hongye City was abrupt and did not cause much damage across the city.
Although most nobles or powerful warriors have left, ordinary people are living well in Hongye City. Their lives were even better than before.
Now that the New Year has just passed, the streets of Hongye City are very lively, and the shops are full of people.
Duan Changqing didn’t go out very much, but Peng Qisheng, who was beside him, was a native of Hongye City and was very familiar with everything. He soon brought them to a large shopping mall nearby.
But when they came here… Peng Qisheng was also stunned.
Before the rebellion, this was the most high-end shopping mall in Hongye City. Here, you could buy a lot of things from Holy City or other places, and those things were all luxury goods in Hongye City.
But now, those high-end luxury stores are gone.
A luxury store that covers an area of hundreds of square meters is divided into many small stores, selling all kinds of things, and the prices are not high.
But it cannot be denied that it is more lively here, and there are many people from the fringe area who came here to shop.
“It turns out that the central district is like this.”
“It wasn’t like this before!”
“The houses here are so beautiful.”
“When I become a warrior, I will also live in a beautiful house.”
…
Duan Changqing heard some children talking in low voices full of hope for the future.
“Mom, there are several clothing stores over there, let’s go take a look?” Duan Changqing said, pointing not far away.
Lu Jingchen was shocked and looked at Duan Changqing incredulously. “What do you call me?”
“Mom.” Duan Changqing smiled. Given the Ghost King’s attitude towards Lu Jingchen just now… He has already confirmed Lu Jingchen’s identity.
Lu Jingchen always spoke in a male voice and wore a mask. She believed that Lu Xiaoran would not talk nonsense with others, and the Ghost King was always with her… How did Duan Changqing know?
Duan Changqing knows, so does her son know too?
“Dad told me about you.” Duan Changqing explained.
“Yunnan…”
“He also knows.” Duan Changqing said.
When Lu Jingchen was wandering around Xie Yunnan before, she thought that Xie Yunnan didn’t know her identity. She never planned to tell Xie Yunnan, let alone Duan Changqing.
Now, she especially wanted to go back to find Xie Yunnan.
“Yunnan doesn’t have a lot of clothes, let’s go buy him some?” Duan Changqing smiled.
Duan Changqing took the initiative to point out Lu Jingchen’s identity, and also wanted Lu Jingchen to get used to it in advance.
Otherwise… Xie Yunnan and Lu Jingchen both look like they don’t know how to get along with each other… When will they be able to break this deadlock?
“Go.” Lu Jingchen said.
Lu Jingchen took a deep breath, quickly returned to normal, and asked Duan Changqing: “What kind of clothes do Yunnan like?”
Duan Changqing said: “Comfortable ones are better.”
According to his observation, Xie Yunnan also loves beauty and likes beautiful clothes. But apart from those important occasions, he usually prefers comfortable clothes.
When she entered the store, Lu Jingchen was a bit at a loss. Her own clothes are made by others… and wasn’t sure how to choose clothes for others.
On the other hand, Duan Changqing quickly found clothes suitable for Xie Yunnan.
Duan Changqing was about to try it on his own, when he suddenly felt a sense of malice.
He frowned slightly and looked out the door, but the malice had disappeared.
Who is spying on him? Or maliciously snooping?
In Hongye City, in order to protect Duan Changqing, Xie Yunnan asked him to stay at home every day.
Later, knowing that he was very strong, Xie Yunnan was relieved, but Duan Changqing still didn’t go out very much, and the media in Hongye City did not report on Duan Changqing’s affairs.
Therefore, ordinary people in Hongye City basically do not know Duan Changqing.
Everyone is familiar with the Ghost King, and with many people imitating the Ghost King’s costume, Lu Jingchen was simply regarded as another imitator.
The two of them came out to buy clothes without attracting much attention. At most, some people looked at Duan Changqing because of his good looks.
Such snooping… is clearly problematic.
“What size does Yunnan wear?” Lu Jingchen asked.
Duan Changqing said, “It’s the same as me.”
He was too thin before, but he has recently started taking a medicated bath, and his body is much stronger. It’s perfectly fine to wear the same size and mix clothes with Xie Yunnan.
Besides…with his strength gradually recovering, he is not afraid if someone comes to the door.
Duan Changqing tried on the clothes.
Lu Jingchen has no interest in buying clothes. In her opinion, it’s better to practice than waste time buying clothes. Strength determines the last word.
If she had the strength before, who would dare to attack her son?
But watching Duan Changqing try on clothes at the moment… she suddenly became interested!
Duan Changqing is really pleasing to the eyes. No matter what kind of clothes he wears, it looks good on him!
Therefore, Lu Jingchen wanted Duan Changqing to try on more clothes, and whenever Duan Changqing tried something, she wanted to buy it.
And buy them, she did.
As the head of the Lu family, she’s used to spending a lot of money, not to mention that the clothes here are so cheap, even hundreds of dollars a piece…
“These two sets of clothes, one set each with a white pattern and a black pattern!” After Duan Changqing tried on a set of sweaters, Lu Jingchen said again.
The merchant was overjoyed. “Okay! I’ll wrap it up for you!”
“Changqing! Try this set too!” Lu Jingchen took another set for Duan Changqing.
Duan Changqing is really good-looking, and she felt a great sense of accomplishment after dressing Duan Changqing up!
Duan Changqing took it and glanced outside, not in a hurry to try it on.
He felt two ninth-level warriors approaching.
These two people were obviously coming for him and Lu Jingchen, but Lu Jingchen hadn’t discovered them yet.
Duan Changqing felt that someone was approaching, but he didn’t think they would make a move. After all, there are too many people here.
Unfortunately, he thought so, but the people who came to trouble him didn’t think so.
As soon as Duan Changqing discovered their existence, they revealed themselves, releasing the pressure of ninth-level warriors, completely ignoring the ordinary people around them.
The moment he sensed the two of them, Lu Jingchen was shocked.
There is a high probability that she can’t beat two ninth-level warriors!
If she’s alone, she can still escape, but Duan Changqing is also present!
In the battle of the ninth-level warriors, Duan Changqing, who is an ordinary person, may die if he is slightly affected!
She wanted to run with Duan Changqing, and couldn’t do much. If she’s attacked when escaping, Duan Changqing might also have an accident.
There are many ordinary people at the scene…
“Hurry up!” Lu Jingchen shouted, asking Peng Qisheng to take Duan Changqing away first. As for her, she’ll delay them for a while.
“Want to leave? It’s too late.” One of the ninth-level warriors sneered and rushed directly to Duan Changqing.
Their mission is to capture Xie Qing and Duan Changqing back!
Duan Changqing: “…”
He had been wondering why Holy City didn’t respond when they made a fuss in Hongye City before.
Holy City’s response finally came.
These people even stared at him as soon as they came!
As for Lu Jingchen… He suspected that these people regarded Lu Jingchen as the Ghost King.
The Ghost King has never shown his face. Others recognize him because of his attire. Lu Jingchen is dressed exactly like the Ghost King today, and even walked outside with him. Isn’t this treating her as the Ghost King?
The sudden action of two ninth-level warriors can destroy the entire mall easily.
It’s impossible for Duan Changqing to let such a thing happen, not to mention that his health has recovered a lot recently.
The two ninth-level warriors pointed their toes and jumped into the air, heading towards Lu Jingchen and Duan Changqing respectively.
Lu Jingchen’s face changed greatly. Just as she was about to meet the enemy, she saw the two men fall from the air and smash to the ground.
Lu Jingchen: “???”
