I'm the master of my life

Chapter 81: Implicated Cannon Fodder 28

The food brought by several people was quite a lot, so Lanxi shared it with everyone. The other girls also had food sent by their families. Everyone ate and commented on which one was the most delicious.

Unexpectedly, the winner was the one sent by Qiu Jiang. Lan Xi thought about it carefully. Qiu Jiang and his wife have been running courier missions for many years and have spent countless hours sleeping in the wilderness. It is not surprising that they are the best at barbecue.

Lanxi and Qiubing sat in the carriage, lifted a corner of the curtain and looked outside. After all, this was the provincial capital, which was not comparable to the town or the county. The city walls here were more majestic and the city was more lively.

Qiu Leng was driving the car in front. The car team was being inspected. Lan Xi thought that they had finally arrived in the city. Now they had to sort out the issue of the male and female protagonists. After arriving at the inn, Lan Xi decided to let the double come out to replace herself.

Lanxi had a good idea, but unfortunately, they were not staying in an inn, but a property of the clan in the capital, a particularly large house.

Lanxi couldn't help but feel anxious. It wouldn't be easy to get out after entering. She had to leave early tomorrow morning, but she was afraid of disturbing others if she left at night.

After struggling for a whole night, Lanxi gritted her teeth and simply replaced her body with a substitute in the room. She hid on the beam and waited for her fifth brother to leave before taking action.

Lanxi was right. After seeing off the motorcade, the people who stayed behind left on their own, some to review their studies. The fifth brother and his wife also left together to go shopping.

Lanxi took this opportunity to quickly leave the house, put on a veil that covered her from head to toe, and went to the street.

Lanxi looked around, wondering where to find the male and female protagonists? Oh, I heard that the family's house was near the examination hall, so the male protagonist must be nearby, either staying at an inn or renting a house.

Lanxi was thinking this as she strolled around the area. Suddenly, she saw her fifth brother and his wife entering a restaurant.

Lanxi's eyes turned. Since the defenders were here, would the male and female protagonists also be here? Thinking of this, she also walked into the restaurant.

Lanxi had just entered the restaurant when she saw the backs of her fifth brother and his wife going upstairs.

While Lanxi was looking around, a waiter called out, "Sir, please come in."

Lanxi looked around, pointed at the stage in the middle of the first floor and said, "Your restaurant is quite interesting. Find me a private room with a better view." As she spoke, Lanxi threw a dime to the waiter.

The waiter took the change and greeted him more enthusiastically: "Okay, sir, please go upstairs."

The waiter led Lanxi to one of the private rooms and said, "Sir, although this private room is not big, it has the best view."

Lanxi lifted the curtain and looked downstairs. It was indeed a nice view. Not only could she see the entire first floor, but she could even see the second floor if the view was good. Of course, that was when the curtain was not drawn.

Lan Xi nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not bad, it doesn't matter if it's a little smaller, I'm alone anyway."

"As long as you are satisfied, what would you like to order?" the waiter asked attentively.

"Bring us a portion of your restaurant's signature dishes." Lan Xi waved her hand and said.

"Sir, our restaurant has 24 signature dishes. Are you sure you want all of them?" the waiter asked cautiously.

"It's okay, you guys go ahead! I have a big appetite and I don't know if it will be enough." Lan Xi glanced at him, then took out a silver note and put it on the table.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter saw the 500 taels of silver on the table, and then secretly glanced at Lanxi. Although she was covered by a veil, it was obvious that the girl was not big or fat. I didn't expect her to be so good at eating. Maybe she was fooling me! Thinking this way, the waiter closed the door of the private room and went downstairs. He didn't care whether she could finish the meal or not, as long as she paid the silver.

It wasn't long before the dishes were served. Lanxi couldn't help but nod secretly. This restaurant was pretty good. The dishes were served quickly even with so many people. It seemed that there must be quite a few chefs in the kitchen.

After tasting each dish, Lanxi asked the waiter to serve another portion of her favorite dish, and then began to slowly savor the delicious food. She had to say that the food in this restaurant was really delicious.

Just when Lanxi had finished her meal and asked the waiter to pack up the food, she heard a noise downstairs and the sound of tables, chairs and dishes being broken.

Lanxi leaned against the fence on the second floor and looked down. It was really true that after searching for a long time, he finally found the woman he was looking for. She was right down there!

Lanxi couldn't help but smile complacently, knowing that following the fifth brother and his wife would definitely yield something. But why didn't I see the male lead? Did he stay at home to study?

Lanxi watched the heroine pretending to be a white lotus and being criticized by others, and even her hidden married identity was exposed. Afterwards, the heroine knew that she couldn't win the argument, and she ran out crying because she hadn't cultivated her shamelessness.

Just as she started to run, she was exposed. One of the girls grabbed her. The heroine didn't care about pretending to be a naive girl anymore and pushed the girl hard, and ended up pushing her into the pond.

Just as Lanxi was about to use her hands to save the person, the curtain next door was forcefully opened, and a figure flew down.

Lanxi stopped and decided not to join in since someone else was there. It would be bad if her identity was exposed.

Lanxi turned her head and found that the person flying down was actually the fifth brother and his wife who were on the second floor.

Lanxi looked at the private room next door and the still swaying gauze curtain. She reached out and touched the gauze in front of her, which felt soft and silky.

He lifted a corner of the gauze curtain and covered his eyes with it. When he looked outside, it was as if there was nothing obstructing him. No wonder he didn't notice it just now.

Lanxi turned over to the other side, but could not see anything. Lanxi touched the gauze curtain in her hand and thought to herself, it would be great if she could get it.

After being distracted for a while, Lanxi saw the heroine, who looked shocked and stumbled out.

Lanxi quickly took out the bowls and plates from the space, packed up the dishes on the table and put them into the space, then quickly left the private room and went downstairs from the stairs on the other side, just missing her fifth brother and his wife who were going upstairs again.

Lanxi paid the bill at the counter, not caring about spending more than two hundred taels of silver on a meal, and immediately chased after him.

After chasing them out and was about to find someone to ask, I unexpectedly saw a man and a woman arguing on the street, and people passing by them walked around them and stayed away from them.

Isn't this the heroine and her lover? Lanxi didn't rush over, but found a tea stall to sit down, drinking tea while keeping an eye on the other side. When the two left, Lanxi threw down the tea money and chased after them.

Lanxi saw the two of them being affectionate with each other in a remote alley, and they only separated after a few moments of tenderness.
