174 An Interesting Piece (1/2)
”Who are you?” Lan Gao Ya said cautiously. She doesn't have much time to spend here in case that annoying emperor sends some people to chase after her. However, who is this person that could guess about her secret so correctly?
The person in front of her is a man wearing black clothes all over. She can't see his feature or anything, but she can sense a thick bloodthirsty aura from him. If her guess is not wrong, he must be an assassin.
”Did you forget about the one placing a knife in your cousin neck?” the person said calmly.
Lan Gao Ya minds rotate quickly before her eyes showed an understanding. He is one of Jun Min's people. What did he come here for and how could a mere subordinate possibly knows about her escape route? The people on Jun Min side are not ordinary.
”I remember,” she said calmly.
”Do you know why I come here?”
This person is someone from Jun Min side. If he comes here to kill her, she won't be able to retaliate for anything. Even if she tries to dig deeper into the Jun Family, she hadn't had any precaution towards this family, rendering her to not have any card in her hand.
Her eyes narrowed a little for she understands that she won't be able to do anything in front of this man. But, she is not one to surrender to the word of fate. There is no way she would let him kill her when she hadn't avenged her family death.
”Did you come to kill me?” She asked slowly.
”No.”
”What did you come here for?” Lan Gao Ya feels slightly relieved, but she didn't ease her body at all. If something bad were to happen, she wouldn't be able to go from here.
”I come to buy information from you.”
Lan Gao Ya thinks hard about the Jun Family. She had sent several people to investigate them, but the result nearly made her feel grim. Most of the spies were killed and the others were lost. The information about the newest condition of the Jun Family is almost none, especially in the last few years.
She opened her mouth, ”What information do you want to buy?”
”Six years ago, a messenger from the Lan Family came to the Jun Family. Do you know what is the news that messenger brought?”
Lan Gao Ya eyes narrowed and her mind rotates even more quickly. She still remembers that incident because she was already the one taking care of the information agency by then. However, does this person know that kind of information would inevitably bring trouble to their family if it was leaked out?
Although she doesn't have any prove, just the rumor would be enough to make people doubting about the Jun Family. That is if this was a few years before since any news targeted at Jun Family right now would be seen as people trying to tarnish their reputation because the young general is no longer here.
”I do, but what is the benefit of me giving the information to you? Mind you, there is no one else who knows aside from me,” the girl showed a cruel smile, instantly makes the man understand that she had killed the others who know about it.
It was actually unneeded for he didn't have any intention to use violence. He pointed towards the side, ”that will be for you.”
Lan Gao Ya eyes followed the man's finger. She can see a fine horse tied to the tree at the location several meters from them. Because the horse was staying still during these times, she hadn't realized that there is that animal near them.
She prepared her escape in quite a hurry, so she knows that she will still have a long journey ahead.The horse could greatly help her in her journey.
”Deal.”
