Chapter 191: Chapter 190: I Came to Visit Relatives

"Under the bright sky, no thief shall be audacious, Abao, attack! If he dies, it’s on me."

The man with a carelessly casual smile instantly stiffened; he had not anticipated that his first encounter with Gu Youyou would begin like this.

While he was still in a daze, Abao had already launched an attack on him, encouraged by his master’s command.

With a loud howl, it pounced and bit down on the man’s arm, immediately tearing off a piece of his fair clothing.

"Ouch, my clothes..." the man cried out in pain, hurriedly retreating into the yard, examining the sleeve now missing a piece with a pained expression.

Gu Youyou, holding a stick, chased after him and, by the bright moonlight, she finally saw the so-called thief clearly.

His attire was white and luminous like jade, reflecting the moonlight. His soft, delicate features made it hard to distinguish his gender. His black hair cascaded down his back, making him look like an immortal who had just stepped out of the Moon Palace.

Except that this immortal was somewhat disheveled, losing some of his dignity.

He pointed at Gu Youyou, who stepped out of the door, with a face full of anger, and accused her frantically, "You... you...ouch, this is the Crane Immortal White Moon Robe, unique in this world, a rare treasure, and you let that Little Beast tear it, I’m telling you, you have to compensate me; even if you sold yourself, you couldn’t afford it!"

Gu Youyou looked innocently at the so-called thief who was accusing her.

Clearly, this was not a normal person.

Would a normal person break into someone’s house in the middle of the night uninvited? Would a normal thief stroll around in white clothes?

She tugged the corner of her mouth and said, "You intruded into a residence in the dead of night. Forget one piece of clothing; even if you were bitten to death by the owner’s dog, you’d deserve it. Surely you must be aware of the laws of Zhuzhao Country, right?"

The man across from her paused, then with a serious face, said, "Who said I broke into a house in the middle of the night? I’m here to visit relatives!"

"Visit relatives?"

"Yes, visit relatives. Eh, where’s my cousin? He told me he lived here and to find him when I arrived."

"Your cousin?" Gu Youyou tugged at the corner of her mouth, disbelieving his nonsensical ramblings.

The man looked Gu Youyou up and down, then suddenly his eyes widened as if he had made an astonishing discovery, "Oh my, you wouldn’t happen to be the cousin’s wife, would you?"

Gu Youyou rolled her eyes; she really wanted to respond with, "Oh my, you wouldn’t happen to be Jin Zijin’s younger cousin, would you?"

Whether he was the cousin or not, she was certain that this guy had been sent by Zijin.

He actually had such unreliable relatives.

Even if he were a cousin, who behaves like this, barging into someone’s house uninvited in the middle of the night? Ever heard of knocking?

And what in the world was Zijin thinking? He indeed knew where she had gone, he had the sense not to come himself, but why send this man? Whatever the reason, it could not be good.

Gu Youyou pushed him out with the stick and said, "Your person isn’t here, so get out quickly, or I’m calling the authorities."

"Hey hey...don’t push, don’t push. I’ve come all this way, you can’t just leave me to sleep on the streets. I’m here to find Jin Zijin, I’m his cousin, his close cousin. He told me this was his house, no mistake...hey hey!"

Gu Youyou pushed him out the door, slamming it with a thud, and said, "Looking for Jin Zijin, right? Out the door, turn left, follow that road to Lotus Village, goodbye..."

The man continued knocking on the door from outside, threatening, "Your lousy door can’t stop me, don’t force me to climb over the wall to get in."
