Chapter 37 – Descending From the Sky:
?Lu Zhanglao, no matter what I want to meet with Miss Huang tomorrow
evening,? Guo Jing said, ?I don?t care how you?d do it. Whether you come
up with an idea yourself, or you ask others, but I want you to present
me with a clever idea how I can see her. I give you until noon tomorrow.?
Lu Youjiao was flabbergasted. ?Huang Bangzhu is not here, how can Sir
meet with her??
?You have a divine wisdom, you should be able to think of something,?
Guo Jing replied, ?If you can?t present a good idea by noon tomorrow, I
am going to handle you according to the military law.? Being aware that
he was speaking nonsense, Guo Jing was secretly amused.
Lu Youjiao was about to reason when Guo Jing turned his head to tell his
guard, ?Prepare a hundred soldiers to act as executioners tomorrow at
noon.? His guard acknowledged with a loud voice.
Lu Youjiao looked distressed; dejectedly he walked back to his tent.
....
Guo Jing?s mind was filled with another kind of apprehension; he was
wondering if his brute force method of forcing Huang Rong to show
herself would actually make her hate him even more. What if Lu Youjiao
had determined not to open his mouth? Certainly he could not behead him,
could he?
It was almost noon, with composed face Guo Jing sat in his tent; while
on the either sides of the tent stood the executioners, waiting. Then
the bugle sounded, announcing it was noon.
