Chapter 2081 - Trick (2/2)

“Lai Cheng Ping, how dare you try to snatch them?” Bai Mei Gui didn’t expect that the men from Commander’s Manor would arrive early and listened to Sima You Yue. The Commander’s Manor and City Lord’s Manor were already on bad terms, if Lai Cheng Ping told this to Hua Wu Xiang, nothing would happen but his status as a friend of City Lord’s would be at stake.

“Bai Mei Gui, it’s better that you wash your hands off this.” Lai Cheng Ping said, “You’re the Commander’s envoy, not his envoy. You should consider the Commander.”

“I don’t need you to tell me what to do.” Bai Mei Gui continued, “We found this person first, so can you not cut this queue?”

“We have to respect the party’s opinion. She is willing to go with us, not you.” Lai Cheng Ping said.

Sima You Yue brought Wu Lingyu and went over to Commander’s Manor side at this time. She glanced at Old Man Li as she stood still. Old Man Li hesitated for a while and walked to her side.

They already saw that he was with her and saw what happened today. He might be able to escape if he followed her. If he didn’t, he might be killed anytime.

Seeing Sima You Yue standing at his side, Lai Cheng Ping laughed and looked at her proudly, “See, she has already decided.”

“Lai Cheng Ping, it seems like you want to defy us all the way.” The expression on Wu Xiang City Lord didn’t look good.

There was no way to settle this amicably, but he mustn’t let Sima You Yue see Hua Wu Xiang. If she spilled everything in front of Hua Wu Xiang, all their hard work from past years would be ruined. As long as she died, whatever happened earlier on would be counted as a slander of Commander’s Manor.

He looked at Sima You Yue as he waved his hand and the City Lord Manor’s men went ahead to attack the Commander Manor’s men.

Lai Cheng Ping had already thought about this so he wanted to protect Sima You Yue’s safety even more.

“Protect her!” He yelled as the Commander Manor’s men joined in the fight.

It wasn’t the first time that the members of Commander’s Manor and City Lord’s Manor fought. Hence, it was no surprise for the people in the City.

The City Lord Manor’s men were very enthusiastic this time as the City Lord was present. If they could get on his good side, their status in the City Lord Manor would be high.

Although the Commander Manor came a little late, their power wasn’t as good as compared to City Lord Manor’s but they had more men. So both of them were tied.

Suddenly, someone shouted, “They’re missing!”

The battle stopped, they looked at where Sima You Yue were, but they were nowhere to be seen.

“Where are they?” Lai Cheng Ping asked flusteredly and exasperatedly.

“They were here just a while ago!” The one who was responsible to look after them went pale. She was just right beside him, how did he not notice that they left?

When did they leave?!

Everyone was flustered and exchanged glances. Were they going to continue the fight when the one they were fighting over had gone missing?

Wu Xiang City Lord and Lai Cheng Ping were silent. Both of them exchanged glances from the battleground, then ordered their own men to search for them.

Sima You Yue, Wu Lingyu and Old Man Li came out from the spatial area. Old Man Li patted his own chest, sighing in fear as he was in disbelief that they actually escaped.

However, he was more afraid of both of them. He didn’t expect that they would cause so much trouble and would still be able to escape in that situation. It seemed like it was a wise decision to choose them. He was sure that she wouldn’t have brought him along if he didn’t choose her earlier.

“Miss You Yue, is it true that the Happiness City’s City Lord is in your hands?” He asked.

“That’s right.” Sima You Yue continued, “He wanted to kill me, so I captured him. I’d kill him if I wasn’t afraid of trouble.”

Old Man Li was speechless upon hearing that. Wouldn’t it still create trouble if she captured him? If that was true, then she wouldn’t have gotten into that situation just now, right?
