Chapter 25 The Extraordinary Woman Who Even Young Master Hua Was Amazed

That’s right, the graceful woman sitting next to the eight-immortals table was Peng Yaoyao.

The woman that Hua Duxiu rescued by chance.

The woman who sent Hua Duxiu a cart full of gifts.

Peng Yaoyao turned around and frowned , " Can't you four go out and wait for me?"

The leader bowed and said , " Miss, Manager Lu has made special arrangements. No matter where you go, you must not leave the sight of the four of us."

Peng Yaoyao sighed , " Uncle Lu also said that Mr. Hua is very skilled in martial arts. Even if the four of you join forces, you may not be able to win, right?"

The leading warrior blushed slightly, clasped his fists and said , " Yes."

"So, with the Playboy here and in a closed box, how could I be in any danger? The four of you quickly get out and stand guard outside the door, and don't eavesdrop on our conversation!"

Peng Yaoyao pretended to be angry, and the leading warrior looked struggling, but finally he sighed softly, waved his hand, and the four of them slowly walked out of the box.

Before leaving, the warrior leader looked at Hua Duxiu strangely.

Is this frail, garishly dressed pretty boy really that powerful?

Humph, Manager Lu must be talking nonsense.

"Close the door tightly!" Peng Yaoyao shouted.

The warrior closed the door silently.

Peng Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes immediately changed when she looked at Hua Duxiu.

He became much gentler, with a smile on his face, and was no longer such a stereotyped image.

Hua Duxiu was surprised and asked , " Miss Yaoyao, no matter where you go, you can't leave the sight of these four people? Then..."

Peng Yaoyao pouted , " Hateful, what are you thinking about?"

Hua Duxiu sat down and asked softly , " Tell me, what is the moral of the story I just told you?"

Peng Yaoyao said seriously , " Well...you mean, if you want to be calm and composed, you have to stand high enough? No one can threaten you?"

Hua Duxiu clapped his hands , " Smart!"

“It’s a pleasure to deal with smart people!”

Hua Duxiu was very happy.

Peng Yaoyao is a smart person, and what’s more rare is that she is a smart person with a special identity.

Because she is the daughter of Peng Tianlin, the governor of Kunmo Valley.

Peng Yaoyao looked at Hua Duxiu with something sparkling in her eyes.

But definitely not tears.

Of course not, there is no reason, right?

In short, there was something very shining in the dark eyes that looked at Hua Duxiu.

Hua Duxiu's heart trembled, and he whispered , " Why...why are you looking at me like that?"

Peng Yaoyao was a little embarrassed , " Ah? No, no, I just think you're interesting. I didn't expect you to come to me on your own initiative. I'm very happy."

Hua Duxiu rolled her eyes , " You are a lady from a wealthy family, your requirements can't be so low, right? I, Hua Duxiu, am not a gifted child, so it's not a big deal to come and play with you."

It's rare to be so low-key!

There's no way. Young Master Hua has other purposes today and doesn't want to be too high-profile.

Peng Yaoyao asked , " I...did you receive all the gifts I gave you?"

Hua Duxiu nodded , " Got it."

"Then...do you like it?"

Hua Duxiu said , " I like you very much. You are very tasteful, kind-hearted, and elegant. I am very happy to meet such a perfect match as Miss Yaoyao."

Peng Yaoyao blushed and said happily , " You are so elegant and a great man. Yaoyao is also very happy to meet you."

Hua Duxiu waved his hand , " Okay, there's no need to say more about praising each other."

Huh? What?

Peng Yaoyao choked.

The atmosphere that was created with great effort disappeared immediately.

Hua Duxiu asked , " Aren't you going to ask me why I came all the way from Yanyu County to see you?"

Peng Yaoyao said , " No matter what you want me to do, I'm glad you can come."

Hua Duxiu held his forehead and said , " What a sin, what a sin!"

Another crazy girl who blindly worships me.

Come on, you are the Governor's daughter, can you be a little different from other nymphomaniac girls?

I don't want to sacrifice my looks to seduce you into doing something.

I will convince you by reasoning and presenting facts.

Peng Yaoyao asked curiously , " What's wrong?"

Hua Duxiu shook his head , " It's okay, it's okay, I just remembered some past events. Miss Yaoyao, you came from far away, what do you think of the customs and practices in Trapped Demon Valley? Are you used to it?"

Peng Yaoyao looked at Hua Duxiu with her bright eyes and said:

"You...you should call me Yaoyao. Adding the word 'girl' to it makes it seem more distant."

Hua Duxiu was stunned , " Okay, according to my style, I can say two words, and it's better not to say four words."

Peng Yaoyao nodded , " Young Master Hua, since you asked me out, you must have heard something about it. My family is from Snake Valley. Compared to Snake Valley, Trapped Demon Valley is really better than ever."

Hua Duxiu was surprised , " Oh? Is Snake Valley so bad?"

"Snake Valley is full of mountains and valleys. What's more terrifying is that there are poisonous snakes everywhere. Moreover, the people in Snake Valley are fierce and slavery is prevalent. It is very chaotic."

Hua Duxiu frowned and asked , " Slavery? There is still slavery under the Shenlong Empire?"

Peng Yaoyao said , " Yes, but among the nine realms in the world, only Snake Valley is like this."

Hua Duxiu couldn't figure out what kind of place Snake Valley was, so he simply stopped thinking about it and returned to the topic.

"Do you know why I came to you?"

Peng Yaoyao asked , " What are you doing?"

Hua Duxiu said , " To be honest, you keep giving me gifts, and I feel embarrassed, so I wanted to ask someone to send you a gift in return. But the escort leader Ren sent back a message saying that you are... well, you know. It's not convenient for me to send you a gift in return."

Peng Yaoyao apologized , " Yes, it's not convenient for me to come in."

Are you kidding? Is it so easy to get into the Governor's Palace?

What's more, you want to give a gift to the Governor's daughter?

If it weren't for the fact that head escort Ren spent money to bribe the doorman, Hua Duxiu's visiting card would not have been delivered to Peng Yaoyao so easily.

Hua Duxiu pulled out a beautifully framed scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Peng Yaoyao, saying:

"It's for you."

Peng Yaoyao took it happily and spread it on the table carefully.

A picture of orchids.

The sketches are casual and casual, like scribbles by a scribbler, and compared with the others, they have almost no aesthetic appeal.

But Peng Yaoyao could tell at a glance that the thing was a painting of a pot of orchids, and it had a fresh and unworldly feeling.

Peng Yaoyao is convinced that Hua Duxiu was absolutely serious in creating this painting, and that he had achieved both style and level.

Uh... Hua Duxiu has a unique style, and it’s hard to describe the level.

The inscription on the left reads: The fragrance of orchids spreads far away, and the fragrant roots of irises flow. To Miss Yaoyao for your appreciation.

Signature: Hua Duxiu.

Peng Yaoyao was overjoyed and admired the orchid painting again and again before she carefully rolled up the orchid painting and tied it up with a brocade rope.

Hua Duxiu put his hands behind his back and looked up , saying , " The orchids are luxuriant and fragrant. I am very happy that you like orchids. Only people with noble character can truly like orchids. You and I are such people!"

Hua Duxiu praised both Peng Yaoyao and himself.

In the final analysis, it is still about praising yourself.

Of course, he came here today not only to return the gift to Peng Yaoyao, nor to praise her.

Not even wanting to hook up with Peng Yaoyao.

Absolutely not.

Hua Duxiu said seriously , " Yaoyao, let's put an end to our mutual appreciation and praise. What I'm going to say next is that you should not be disturbed by our friendship. You should use your rational mind to analyze and think."

Peng Yaoyao was silent, not knowing what Hua Duxiu was going to say.

But we can guess it to some extent.

What is Peng Yaoyao’s identity?

She is the daughter of the Governor of Trapped Demon Valley.

Did Hua Duxiu come to see her just to give her a gift in return?

If yes, that's good.

Unfortunately, a voice deep in Peng Yaoyao's heart said: He needs your help.

This is something Peng Yaoyao doesn't want to think about.

But Hua Duxiu will speak sooner or later.

I just didn't expect him to say it so seriously. What a weird guy.

Peng Yaoyao asked , " Please go ahead."

Hua Duxiu said , " Your father has come to the Devil Valley and is busy with government affairs. I want to know what he fears the most."

Peng Yaoyao was stunned: What kind of question is this, Mr. Hua?

Daddy...of course he's most afraid that his precious daughter will be deceived away.

Hee hee hee.

Peng Yaoyao thought for a moment and said , " Something has changed in the army."

Hua Duxiu's eyes lit up: What a smart person!

"That's right. If there are changes in the army, what is the biggest reason?"

Peng Yaoyao thought for a moment and said , " Mentally I don't know why I'm fighting, and physically I can't get enough food."

Hua Duxiu almost exclaimed: Such a talented girl, she is exactly like me!

Huh? Pah! Pah!

There is something wrong with what you said.

It’s not easy, it’s not easy!

It turns out there are people in this world who can catch up with my thinking.

Still a woman.

And she was sitting right in front of me, looking at me expectantly with her big watery eyes.

Hua Duxiu nodded in satisfaction and said softly , " I know your father is in charge of military affairs in a certain area, and my family just received a business deal a few days ago. This deal is related to nearly 20% of the military expenditure income of the Governor's Office."

Peng Yaoyao was stunned . " You mean...paying taxes?"

"That's right. My escort agency has taken on the important task of escorting taxes from Shushen County. Shushen County is the largest county in Trapped Demon Valley, and taxes account for a very high proportion, probably one-fifth of the total."

Peng Yaoyao said , " Yes, among the nine counties in Trapped Demon Valley, Tree God County is one of the largest counties."

Hua Duxiu's eyes sternly said , " However, some conspirators want to take advantage of this batch of taxes! Moreover, they want to take advantage of this opportunity to carry out a bigger political conspiracy. Their target is Governor Peng, who has just arrived in the Trapped Demon Valley and whose foundation is unstable!"
