Chapter 402 A Secret Conversation at Midnigh (1/2)

t

“Don’t be reckless, Mr. Dongfang. I think you know about Xiu’s character better than I do. Although I don’t know the result of the negotiation between you and White Dragon and Black Tiger, they must have strengthened their guard. Now they have probably transferred Xiu and others to somewhere else. If you come to find them rashly at this moment, it’s unknown whether you can rescue Xiu. If you are entangled because of this, who can rescue Xiu? What’s more, she will be pushed to a worse situation.”

Lin Mengya’s words made Dongfang Xu calm down gradually.

Capable of earning a living on this business path, Dongfang Xu was not a reckless man.

Over concern flustered him. In addition, Dongfang Xu also knew that White Dragon and Black Tiger were ruthless, so he behaved nervously.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Mengya could understand Dongfang Xu’s mood.

Sitting in front of the table with decadent sentiments, Dongfang Xu was confused in mind now.

The three of them sat in silence for a while. Lin Mengya got up first and took out a note of one hundred taels of silver from her arms.

She had only brought notes of a few thousand taels of silver out with her this time. But now, with Long Tianyu here as her financial support, she was emboldened.

“Mr. Dongfang, one hundred taels of silver is not much, but I hope you can help me take care of Fu. He is my acquaintance. I know that he has caused you a lot of trouble here. I may take him away after finishing this business trip.”

Dongfang Xu was definitely reluctant to accept it. At this moment, Lin Mengya, who brought back the news of Xiu, had been his great benefactor. Besides, it was he who had picked Fu up because of his soft heart and let Fu work as a waiter here.

“No, I can’t accept it. Little brother, I don’t think I can repay the great favor you have done for me. Fu is my employee. As long as I’m still alive, no one dares to bully him!”

However, Lin Mengya put the note in front of Dongfang Xu, and said with a severe countenance.

“That being said, when we were downstairs just now, we claimed to buy medicinal herbs from you. I give you this note of one hundred taels of silver for covering up the secret. I make bold to say that as your beloved niece, Xiu naturally brings the most powerful poison of Lieyun Empire with her.”

The implication in Lin Mengya’s words made Dongfang Xu look severe.

This was so-called the dark area under the lamp. As the saying went, double fist didn’t rival four hands. However, once Lieyun people were cornered, they could definitely make the area within 250 square meters sterile with their poisons, poisonous insects or something else.

One could only resist for a while no matter how advanced his martial arts were.

What was more, someone highly skilled in martial arts would never do something like human trafficking.

To be honest, even masters like Long Tianyu and Qinghu feared Lieyun people who always brought poisons with them.

That was also the reason why the pervert named Xin Li could easily come up to her and make a big show of his strength.

It was because once they were infuriated, it would be a disaster.

Nevertheless, these Lieyun people cherished the poisons on them. Once the poisons were used up, it was time for their doom.

Therefore, Lieyun people would not easily associate with outsiders.

Obedient children like Xiaoyu were rare.

“I see. You’re right. With no internal spy, there will be no external enemy. I will make a thorough investigation later. Thank you for your help in defense of justice. In the future, no matter on this business path or in any others places, as long as you two need my help, I will definitely do whatever I can to help you.”

Dongfang Xu said solemnly. Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu just nodded lightly without showing any complacent expression.

It was getting late, so the two of them got up and left.

Xiao Yixin had been waiting there for a long time. After opening the door for them, he was about to speak, but just told them to take care on their way.

The dark night had faded gradually.

The faint morning light flashed across the sky, revealing a hint of brightness.

Lin Mengya squinted and fully stretched herself.

After a busy night, she finally got a good result.

She squinted at Long Tianyu next to her. He had pulled a long face and seemed to be a little unhappy since they walked out of Jinfu Inn.

Now, there were no outsiders around. Lin Mengya thought with a guilty conscience that she was an escaping prisoner.

What should she do? If Long Tianyu knew her true purpose, would he take her back to the prince’s mansion directly?

Rolling her eyes, she immediately came up with a solution with her smart brain.

She grabbed Long Tianyu’s arm and held it in her arms on her own initiative and pouted her lips, doing quite a perfect job in pretending to be aggrieved.

“Well, I know I’m wrong. But you should not ground me in the mansion. Besides, I go to the Nation of Lintian to ask for medicine for your father.”

She talked in a soft and low voice, sounding like a kitten.

Long Tianyu finally came to his senses. Watching her pitiful face, he felt the resentment in his heart was gone.

Who was willing to let down such a lovely girl?

He sighed secretly in his heart. Now he had been increasingly incapable of dealing with this girl. He desperately wanted to keep her in the mansion and protect her from any danger.

However, he was incapable of doing that. Moreover, as long as he saw her sad face, he also felt distressed.

What was wrong with him?

“I know. I didn’t blame you. Well, it’s enough about that. By the way, what’s the relationship between you and Xiao Yixin? He seems to feel sorry to you.”
