[ABO] The Sparrow in the Threshold
Chapter 9
The temperature in the east is slightly warmer. It was noon when the cargo ship arrived, and the bright sun made the silver sparrow squint slightly.
Without him reaching out, Qianqiu had already handed the sunglasses he had prepared to his side, the young master took them over and put them on, and said, "You prepared them?"
"It was prepared by Butler Cheng Huan."
"As expected of Cheng Huan." Yinque nodded approvingly, "You should learn more."
The chirping of seagulls was mixed with the noisy voices of people in the ship harbor, and the salty sea breeze blew the silver finch's hair into disorder.But he didn't mind, he just took off the knee-length windbreaker and handed it to Qianqiu, and walked off the boat wearing only simple riding clothes.
He changed into an uncommon attire, the ruby on his bow tie was dazzling, and the nobility in his gestures was even more incompatible with a place like a port where fish and dragons were mixed together.
Qian Qiu followed the driver a little closer, standing behind him on the left so that he could dispatch him at any time; while the other six had already received the notice and would not go with Yinque to avoid attracting too much attention.
The person in charge of the family in Wilta has already received the advance notice, and was waiting at the port at seven or eight in the morning. When he saw the ship approaching the port, he greeted it and bowed in front of Yinque: "Master .”
The person in charge's eyes were shrewd, like someone who likes to play tricks; taking advantage of this salute, he took a sneak peek behind Yinque, and secretly counted the number of people accompanying him.
Yinque just said "hmm" and walked out without stopping.
The man followed up immediately: "The cars are ready, two, and the residence is not far from the pier. Does the young master want to rest first, or do you want to take a stroll in Wilta..."
Qianqiu and the driver followed on the left side of Yinque, and the guy who didn't do his homework naturally walked to Yinque's right rear.
The driver gave him a sympathetic look, but the other party was only interested in flattering Yinque, and didn't pay any attention to Yinque's servants.Before he finished speaking, Yinque suddenly stopped and turned to look at him: "What are you in charge of in Wilta, building a factory? How many years have you been married?"
"I am not talented. I have been in the family for five years. In Wilta, I am in charge of the account of the bank..." The man smiled warmly and rubbed his hands.
"It's a very important job, and it's very lucrative." Yinque said, "Name?"
"Hey, hey... my humble Justin."
"I remember, let's lead the way."
Justin didn't hear the ridicule in the words, walked to the front according to his words, turned around three steps and said: "There is a driver in the car, a native of Wilta, and his driving skills are very good...the most important thing is that he is working when he is married. It's long and trustworthy."
"Is there a map?"
"some……"
"I brought the driver, give him the map, and your people can get off work."
Justin glanced back, and the driver nodded at him immediately.
"Since the young master brought someone with him, it is of course more reassuring to use the young master..." Justin took out a folded map from his arms and handed it to the driver, "The inauguration ceremony of the Marquis of Shell is just around the corner. Tomorrow night, the young master at the factory can go to inspect at any time, just let me know in advance..."
The man was talking endlessly, Yinque nodded from time to time to indicate that he heard, but didn't say anything more.
While they were talking, the driver quickly opened the map, took a pen with him and made marks while looking at it.Seeing this, Qianqiu said in a low voice: "The young master actually trusts you very much."
"I just stayed for a long time," the driver whispered, "Young master only trusts you, and he might not even remember the names of other servants..."
Soon they arrived at a secluded place near the port, the black high-end car was parked there, Justin was still talking, Yinque stood still in front of the car door, Qianqiu opened the car door for him.
Yinque was about to get into the car, but suddenly stopped, turned her head and whispered in Qianqiu's ear: "Let the others take another car and go directly to the arranged residence, and wait for my order."
"Yes." Qianqiu nodded, and immediately turned to do it.
After seeing Yinque finished speaking, Justin continued to smile and said: "The Marquis had a very good relationship with the master in the early years, this time I heard that the young master is coming..." "Boom." Yinque didn't save any face for him, and closed the door when he got in the car the door.
Justin's smile froze on his face, and he quickly ran to the driver's seat to inform his people to get off the car, and replace Yinque's driver to get on.
"Then the young master will contact you if you have something to do..."
The car sped away, leaving Justin with an unpleasant exhaust.The smile on his face froze for a moment, and then the corner of his mouth became gloomy: "There is only such a son in the family, and it's over."
"Brother, do we need to send someone to protect us now..."
"Bah, can't you see that he doesn't want me to know his whereabouts?" Justin scolded, "What, it's just an Omega...don't worry about it, he should order anything, do less and make less mistakes .”
-
"Ah——Wilta, there is a smell of poverty everywhere." In the car, Yinque leaned against the window to smoke, and suddenly sighed for a long time.
"Compared with the capital city, it is poorer." Qian Qiu said.
"You're too polite, you're poor." As soon as Yinque finished speaking, several beggars sitting against the wall by the road came into his sight, and quickly disappeared. "Beggars are everywhere. .”
"Master, where do you want to go first?" the driver asked.
"You can open it as you like, let the wind blow." Yinque said, and suddenly thought of something, she hooked her finger at Qianqiu.
The man bullied him obediently, and he leaned close to Qianqiu's ear, and said in a very low voice: "Don't forget to find time to buy the inhibitor... and next time I promise you will die an ugly death."
The wind blowing in from the car window, the warm breath and the smell of pheromones are all beautiful.
Qianqiu nodded and sat back to his original position.
Yinque stopped talking, and the car became quiet, only the whistling of the wind remained.
The silver bird leaning against the car window seemed to be looking at the scenery outside, and also seemed to be thinking about something that no one else could guess.The sun was shining on his face, and his white skin was shining; but his eyes were not bright, and they seemed absent-minded.
Qian Qiu sat upright, but his peripheral vision kept falling on him.The young master's expression naturally reminded him of that night on the boat—it was also absent-minded, and he wasn't sure if he saw it wrong. At that time, the silver bird seemed to have tears in its eyes, which was lovely but not pitiful.
After an unknown amount of time, Yinque suddenly said, "If you were me, where would you go first?"
"Is the young master asking me?" the man said.
"Otherwise, is there anyone else here?"
The driver pursed his lips in embarrassment, not daring to speak.
"Maybe go to the factory first..."
"Then let's find a place to stay first." Yinque said lightly, "This place is no better than the capital of the king, and there are married people everywhere; if someone wants to kill me, now is the best opportunity."
"The place Justin prepared..." "Of course not."
Qianqiu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Just in case, it will be safer for the young master to bring the people arranged by Cheng Huan..."
The real purpose of coming to the east this time is not the so-called inspection of the progress of the factory - how could such a trivial matter be the turn of the head of the family or the heir to come in person - he came for the Marquis of Shell.The marquis took office in the east, and his own influence is not enough to be favored by his family; but his wife is the youngest sister of His Majesty the current emperor.
There must be an important person coming to get married. If he is a guy who is eyeing up from other families, or an enemy, of course he will not let go of such a good opportunity.
Killing Cheng Yinque and marrying Cheng Yinque are essentially the same.
It's just that the people who want to marry him are all outsiders who want to start a family and have power, while the people who want to kill him include several uncles who separate the family.
"With so many people by my side, I'm afraid that others won't know I'm here." Yinque frowned slightly, remembering something, and turned her head to look at Qianqiu's attire.
An ordinary black suit, an ordinary black tie, and no accessories can be found all over his body, no different from the bodyguards he sent away.
As a servant, this kind of attire couldn't be more normal.
"Is there any shopping street nearby?" Yinque suddenly asked, "Let's find a shopping street."
The driver knew Yinque's personality well, and knew that he would never go to a street full of poor people, so the car drove all the way to the center of Wilta, where the attire of pedestrians on the street gradually became decent, and there were no more beggars along the street.
Yinque ordered the car to stop, and before the attendant opened the door for him, he got out of the car and walked straight to the driver's seat.
The driver panicked and wanted to follow, the door was only two fingers wide open, and Yinque pushed the door back: "You find a place to stroll, I will be back here before nine o'clock."
As he spoke, he took out a card and threw it in through the crack of the car window: "Take it and go to the bank to withdraw tens of thousands for fun."
"Young master... this..." The driver showed embarrassment, and asked for help like Qianqiu who also got out of the car, "Master, this is too unsafe, this place is no better than the capital..."
"Are you going to arrange a trip for me?"
"No, no, I definitely didn't mean that..."
Yinque gathered the hair that fell from the corner of her forehead, and hooked the corner of her mouth: "Then take the money and play with you.... Qianqiu, come with me."
The man looked puzzled, but he followed the rules and did not ask questions.The two of them blended into the streets of Wilta, and soon disappeared among the bustling pedestrians.The driver withdrew his gaze and looked at the card in his hand. There was a bronzing family crest on it, and a bird was engraved in the corner. He knew it belonged to Young Master Cheng.
... How dare he use it.
The driver leaned against the car window and lit a cigarette, wandered aimlessly up and down the street for a while, then looked down at his watch as if remembering something: at four o'clock in the afternoon, he would have to wait here for about five hours.
-
It seems that the young master is in a good mood.
Although Yinque was wearing sunglasses, he couldn't see those eyes, but the man could still feel it from the details.As if infected by the sunny day in Wilta, Yinque walked briskly, looked at the rows of colorful signboards in the shopping street, and finally chose a house that looked good and walked in.
It was a clothing store, mainly in black, white and gray tones, which did not meet Yinque's preferences.
"Master, if you want to go shopping..." Qianqiu whispered in his ear while paying attention to the actions of other customers, "We can go to Chengjia's store, it will be safer."
"I'm in trouble." Yinque said lazily, and suddenly reached out to the gray windbreaker hanging beside her.
Seeing this, Qianqiu immediately helped him get it, but the hand deftly bypassed him and took it off the shelf on its own.Yinque suddenly turned around, held the windbreaker and compared it to Qianqiu: "It's not suitable."
"Master..."
"Did Cheng Huan order this suit for you?"
"Yes."
"Cheng Huan is good at everything, that is, he wears the same clothes all year round. He doesn't get tired of me, and I get tired of seeing him."
Yinque hung it back to its original position, and walked leisurely into the depths of the shop; when he saw something that suits his eyes, he took it off again, and compared it to Qianqiu one by one, throwing the suitable ones to Qianqiu, and hanging the inappropriate ones back .In just a few minutes, Qianqiu had seven or eight pieces of clothing in his arms, most of them were windbreakers, and one or two trousers.
After visiting the whole store, Yinque finally stopped: "Go and change it, one piece at a time."
"Master, this is against the rules..." Qianqiu showed embarrassment.
"The rule of getting married is to make me happy. As long as I am happy, everything is in line with the rules." Yinque smiled faintly, "It is not in line with the rules to wear clothes I hate, understand...won't you change them?"
Without him reaching out, Qianqiu had already handed the sunglasses he had prepared to his side, the young master took them over and put them on, and said, "You prepared them?"
"It was prepared by Butler Cheng Huan."
"As expected of Cheng Huan." Yinque nodded approvingly, "You should learn more."
The chirping of seagulls was mixed with the noisy voices of people in the ship harbor, and the salty sea breeze blew the silver finch's hair into disorder.But he didn't mind, he just took off the knee-length windbreaker and handed it to Qianqiu, and walked off the boat wearing only simple riding clothes.
He changed into an uncommon attire, the ruby on his bow tie was dazzling, and the nobility in his gestures was even more incompatible with a place like a port where fish and dragons were mixed together.

"I am not talented. I have been in the family for five years. In Wilta, I am in charge of the account of the bank..." The man smiled warmly and rubbed his hands.
"It's a very important job, and it's very lucrative." Yinque said, "Name?"
"Hey, hey... my humble Justin."
"I remember, let's lead the way."
Justin didn't hear the ridicule in the words, walked to the front according to his words, turned around three steps and said: "There is a driver in the car, a native of Wilta, and his driving skills are very good...the most important thing is that he is working when he is married.
