The Whispered Woes of Carter Chapter 3

Sawyer Su took a sip of tea and said calmly: "It's just nonsense."

"But, but the news has spread all over the teahouse! Lord Chu is now making every effort to collect your preferences. He even wants to know where you have been. He even sent away all the beauties in the mansion..." Su Bai looked tangled, "I think... it doesn't seem fake."

"I have very little contact with him, and now he suddenly says he misses me, would you believe it?" Sawyer Su raised his eyes and looked at him.

Su Bai nodded, then quickly shook his head after meeting Sawyer Su's gaze.

"Rumors, let them go. Going out of your way to argue will inevitably lead to the suspicion of covering up, so it's better to wait for them to dissipate on their own."

"No, young master!" Su Bai said anxiously, "It will be difficult for you to get married in the future if you continue like this! You have not married yet, and now this has happened. Not to mention whether others will misunderstand you as... just looking at the situation of General Chu, which girl would dare to marry him in the future!"

"...Your point is not quite right." Sawyer Su sighed, seeing that he looked like he was on fire, he reached out helplessly to take out the jade pendant in his sleeve, "Then you order... ."

"No! Young Master, you don't know how far they are talking!" Su Bai interrupted him hastily, blushing and hesitating for a long time before he finally said: "They said that Young Master is upright and upright, so Carter Chu was in bed. The top...mostly the bottom."

... Sawyer Su retracted his hand, picked up the tea and said "Oh" unhurriedly, and said with a light smile: "Isn't this a compliment to me? It's just idle talk, why bother."

Su Bai's face turned to surprise and confusion, and finally turned into admiration after sudden realization, "Young master, you are really extraordinary!"

"Let's not talk about this." Sawyer Su smiled, "Where is the person you were asked to pick up?"

"I see you. It's right behind. I should have arrived by now."

☆, [Chapter 3]

The soft voice of the singer in the restaurant was vaguely transmitted to the upstairs pavilion. Unfortunately, the two of them were not interested in elegance at the moment and had no intention of listening carefully.

Carter Chu opened and closed the golden fan in his hand several times, and finally put it on the table impatiently, breaking the silence in the room, "We haven't seen each other for six years, but he didn't come to my house to meet but met in a restaurant. What is Donovan Du doing?" He picked up a white porcelain cup and played with it on his fingertips out of boredom, and asked Quincy Qin who was sitting next to him: "Can his stupid brain recognize the way to the capital?"

Quincy Qin rarely refuted his adjectives and said coldly: "When he arrived in the capital, he didn't look for us first, but went straight to his cousin. Later, his cousin must have accompanied him here. How could he not recognize the way?"

Carter Chu couldn't help but turn his head and look at Quincy Qin's face. Although his face was still expressionless, the tight corners of his lips were enough to make him feel nervous.

Six years ago, he said goodbye to his master and left Cangwu Mountain. He never expected that his junior brother would insist on following him. After all, Carter Chu always felt that hatred and ambition were just his own business. He never mentioned it, and he didn't want others to interfere.

But Quincy Qin was a cold-faced but warm-hearted person. He packed his bag and stood in front of his door at dawn, waiting to go down the mountain with him. He said nothing, but he would not leave no matter how hard he tried. Finally, when Carter Chu was about to lose his temper, he whispered, "Brother, the master said that your path is too hard."

Quincy Qin just followed him. From the battlefield outside the Great Wall to the imperial court, he stepped on the corpses and souls step by step, becoming a popular general and a criticized flatterer.

This was something Carter Chu really didn't expect. After all, there was someone Quincy Qin missed on Cangwu Mountain.

Indulging in willful nonsense, instead of being scolded and punished, Quincy Qin was pampered so carefully, Donovan Du was so stupid that he didn't notice, and only Carter Chu, a bystander, could see clearly.

Over the years, Quincy Qin would only go back to visit when he had free time. A few days ago, Donovan Du's master passed away, and he sent a message saying that he would come to Chang'an to find them after handling the funeral. In the past few days, Carter Chu saw that Quincy Qin was absent-minded from time to time, and now he was afraid of returning home.

Oh, and maybe some strong vinegar flavor.

Carter Chu was aroused, and put down the cup and said "oh" meaningfully, "It's the one he talks about all day long who is smiling, gentle and elegant, with a jade-like complexion, smart and intelligent, who is capable of playing music and books and is astonishing to the heavens." "My cousin?" He sneered, "I always thought he made it up by putting together all the words he could use."

Quincy Qin glanced at him and didn't respond.

Carter Chu smiled with a gloating look on his face until Quincy Qin's face darkened. He tapped Quincy Qin's shoulder with his folding fan and said casually, "It's good to meet. Half of the capital is in my hands now, and you are the leader of my three thousand shadow guards. Are you afraid of losing to that person?"

Quincy Qin's expression eased a little, he hummed but said no more.

Donovan Du arrived soon after. A cheerful "This is it" was heard along with the sound of pushing the door. The carved door was wide open, and the three people except Donovan Du were stunned when they met face to face.

"Long time no see!" The weak-headed boy still had a childish look on his face, and his green shirt made him look a few years younger. Donovan Du's greeting was enthusiastic, but no one responded.

Quincy Qin immediately stood up and retreated behind Carter Chu after seeing who was coming, lowering his eyes and saying nothing. Carter Chu's eyes passed Donovan Du and fell on the person behind him, and a hint of an ambiguous smile slowly appeared on his lips.

Donovan Du followed his gaze in confusion, and saw Sawyer Su smiling slightly when he met Carter Chu's gaze, "I really didn't expect to see Mr. Chu here."

Carter Chu put his chin on his hands and smiled gradually, "It seems that Mr. Su and I are really destined."

"It's better to avoid talking about fate."

"Hey, do you two know each other?" Donovan Du interrupted.

"It's just a common meeting," Sawyer Su said with a smile, "It's just that he pulled me and said a few more words when I went to court this morning as if I was in a state of confusion. Other than that, I can't say we are familiar with each other."

"Unconscious? What did he say?" Donovan Du asked curiously.

"This is really surprising. Are they the friends you are talking about?" Sawyer Su said.

"Yes, my master and their master are close friends. They both live on Cangwu Mountain. The mountain accepted the three of us. I have known them since I studied medicine, and they are good brothers!" Donovan Du asked again: " What did my cousin say this morning?"

Sawyer Su turned his attention back to Carter Chu, "In that case, I would like to thank Mr. Chu for taking care of him."

"Lord Su, why do you have to be polite to me?" Carter Chu replied with a smile.

"...Cousin, why are you thanking that guy?" Donovan Du stepped forward and pulled Quincy Qin's arm, "He is kind to me. Every time Carter Chu wants to bully me, he helps me." , it’s only right to thank him!”

Quincy Qin lowered his head and glanced at him helplessly. Carter Chu tightened his hand holding the fan. Sawyer Su laughed softly but did not answer. Donovan Du looked around belatedly and suddenly asked curiously: "Quincy Qin, why are you standing here?"

Quincy Qin lowered his eyebrows and kept silent. Sawyer Su lifted his robe and sat down at the table calmly. He raised his hand and said with a smile: "There is no need to be formal at a private party. Since you are Ah Yue's friend, why not sit down?"

Quincy Qin frowned unconsciously when he heard that title. He looked at Carter Chu hesitantly. Carter Chu opened and closed the fan with a twist, and smiled without a tone, "Since Mr. Su has spoken, you are the one who has spoken." You won't lose your life if you sit down."

Quincy Qin sat back down as he was told. Sawyer Su smiled and said nothing. On the contrary, Donovan Du became dissatisfied: "What do you mean by this, my surname Chu? It sounds like my cousin can eat people."

Carter Chu raised his eyebrows and looked sideways. Donovan Du subconsciously took a step back. Before he could speak again, Sawyer Su said, "Ah Yue."

Donovan Du quickly covered his mouth and sat next to Sawyer Su silently.

"I just remembered a question," Sawyer Su calmly mentioned the topic just now, "Ayue was sent to study medicine since he was a child. His family was far away from home and he couldn't discipline him. When he found out that he had learned some inappropriate words, he had already corrected them. But here we are. I originally thought it was a mixed bag of people from the Medical Saint’s sect, but now it seems that Master Chu and this person are not rude people. What is going on? "

"Because his master is disrespectful to his elders." Carter Chu said slowly.

"Hey------" Donovan Du was unhappy again. After being reminded by reason that Sawyer Su was still sitting next to him, he swallowed his interjection, "No way, didn't he just say a few words to you? My master is lively."

Quincy Qin looked at Donovan Du and didn't think his words were appropriate.

Carter Chu glanced at him indifferently.

"Cousin, let me tell you that this person named Chu is not a good person," Donovan Du turned to Sawyer Su and said seriously: "My master once said: Carter Chu is a psycho when he is happy and a pervert when he is unhappy. "

Carter Chu: "......"

"The Medical Saint is indeed extraordinary." Sawyer Su laughed softly, "But Lord Chu, don't take it to heart. I know what kind of person you are."

Carter Chu twitched the corners of his lips, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether Sawyer Su was comforting or mocking.

Only Donovan Du took it seriously and smiled, "Yeah, I also think my master is funny." He scratched his head and said, "But cousin, I think when it comes to being mean and offensive, my master is not as good as you."

The other three people present looked at Donovan Du with a somewhat complicated look.

Which side are you on?

After all, Carter Chu and Sawyer Su were not the kind of people who couldn't talk at all, and with Donovan Du there, the atmosphere at the table was quite harmonious. Halfway through the banquet, Carter Chu and Sawyer Su talked about government affairs, and Quincy Qin finally found an excuse to pull Donovan Du out for a private talk.

"Do you know what your cousin does?" he asked.
