322 Its Time to Meet Him (2/2)

The esteemed guest asked his subordinate, ”What happened? Why are you in a hurry?!” He disliked unruly people and this stupid subordinate should have known this.

The spy quickly apologized and fortunately, his master was in a good mood and didn't have a plan to punish him. The spy told his master the news that was spread among the guards. The esteemed guest furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure. ”Who started this rumor?!”

He had thought that he could use the real kidnapper as a cover-up, however, someone was trying to frame him first. This matter really annoyed him.

The spy shook their head in confusion. ”We couldn't find the source. It seems like someone was pulling the string behind the scene...” It meant that they couldn't underestimate the person behind this matter.

His mind fleeted to Uncle Qiu, after all, he was the only one who had the power to do that here. ”What about that Uncle Qiu? Could it possibly be his doing?” The esteemed guest asked in a serious manner.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

The spy shook his head. ”No... although he holds the current power, he didn't have any power back then. He didn't have the capabilities because he only has one loyal person works for him. We also couldn't find anything suspicious about him. Yesterday, he only spent time with his goddaughter and friends.”

The esteemed guest didn't say anything, but he knew... even if he only had one capable person, if both of them were clever, doing this was an easy feat. However, he didn't see any benefits for Uncle Qiu to frame him... They had never crossed path before, thus, he ruled out the possibilities of Uncle Qiu doing this.

”Find out about where the rumor comes from once more!” The esteemed guest ordered. He wondered why suddenly there were a lot of troubles brewing all at once.

”Yes, Master,” the spy nodded and quickly went out to do his job.

The esteemed guest asked his right-hand man when his spy was already gone, ”I heard a loud commotion just now. What happened?”

His right-hand man explained about Uncle Qiu's anger which directly fired several servants and maidservants. The esteemed guest felt that something wasn't right. Even though it seemed to be normal, Uncle Qiu's behavior was still a little out-of-character. It was better if he sounded out Uncle Qiu.

”Hmm... It seems like it's time to meet Uncle Qiu,” the esteemed guest muttered to himself. He had been staying here for quite some times, but he had never tried to meet with Uncle Qiu. He had never put Uncle Qiu in his eyes, after all, he didn't have any special position at Crescent Lake --- only the sacred pet's caretaker.

”Should I call him over?” His right-hand man asked when he saw his master's intention.

”No... I will be the one who goes to him and introduces myself,” the handsome man said leisurely. He didn't have anything to do anyway. ”Where is he?”

His right-hand man answered, ”He's still handling the servants and maidservants near the lake...”

”Then, let's go there!” The esteemed guest said. He wanted to see what the commotion was all about because he guessed that this matter was related to him too.
