Miss Han nodded. ”If what you say is true, that would be for the best. Joe, we're still friends. Especially last night, when I was drunk. You served me in the middle of the night, so I sincerely feel grateful to you … ”Ai, I really do not wish for one day, when we become enemies, do you understand?”
”I don't quite understand.” ”What do you mean by enemy?”
”You really don't understand?” Miss Han smiled faintly and said, ”I thought you were as smart as me. You don't need to be very clear about some things, do you?”
For a moment, Bai Xiaoqiao did not know what to say.
Miss Han blinked and said, ”The reason I'm telling you this is because I don't want to become enemies with you one day. It would be too unfortunate if that happened.”
Little Qiao shook her head and said, ”I don't think so …” However, I will remember your words. ”
Lady Han smiled and said, ”How many days are you staying here?”
”No need.” Little Qiao said sadly, ”I intend to leave tomorrow. First, go to my old home in Huai Pass and have a look. ” ”She smiled and continued,” ”I heard that it was raining heavily over there, and the heavens still have eyes. This way, the drought will finally be relieved a bit. This is great news.” ” Miss Han said, ”If that's the case, your family can move back in again.”
”It's not that simple.” Bai Xiaoqiao said, ”You don't know how tiring it is to move your family, not to mention that your parents are already old. This time in Sichuan, your mother is tired and sick. I think that even if the condition of our hometown improved, we still wouldn't move back so quickly. At least we'll be able to move back in a year or two. ”
Miss Han nodded. ”What about you? I mean, what are your plans for you personally? ”
Bai Xiaoqiao looked at her and shook his head with a wry smile. and said, ”I don't know yet... And you know, the poison in my body is not yet exhausted, one day it will take effect and become troublesome. Therefore, perhaps treating the poison on my body is the most important thing to do right now. ”
Lady Han thought for a moment and said, ”This matter is extremely difficult, but it is not completely hopeless …” Sigh! If only my father was here, he might have a way. ”
Little Qiao asked hesitantly, ”Where is your father now?”
”No one knows.” Miss Han said, ”He's the one who's really elusive. It's really difficult to find him.”
The glimmer of hope that Xiao Bai, Qiao Fang, had been igniting immediately vanished into nothingness.
While he was speaking, he heard a light knocking sound coming from outside the pavilion. The senior's voice said, ”Miss, someone wishes to see you.”
Lady Han frowned and asked, ”Where is he?”
”He's waiting in the yard!” The senior said.
Looking out through the window, he saw four people standing under a tree there.
Lady Han stood up and said to Bai Xiaoqiao, ”Sit for a while. I'll be back soon.”
After she said this, she immediately walked out of the hall.
Bai Xiao Qiao shot a glance at the tree in the distance and could not help but feel her heart palpitate. At least one of the four people was someone she was once familiar with — a skinny face with a goatee growing on his forehead. Wasn't that the person who came last night to inform Big Four in the heavy rain?
Startled, he paid attention to the other three people as well.
Under the crisscrossing sun, the four of them had an indescribably fierce and ferocious look on their faces. Coupled with the wind and dust aura that they had on them for a while, one could tell with a single glance that these four people were definitely not kind people.
The four of them acted as if Miss Han was bowing respectfully, as if they were waiting for her to say something.
What they were saying could not be heard because they were too far away.
Before long, the four said their goodbyes and Miss Han returned to the pavilion.
Bai Xiaoqiao watched on coldly from the sidelines. Although he did not know what they were talking about, he could determine that something important was about to happen. The leader who caused this to happen was none other than the beautiful, fairy-like Miss Han in front of him.
Lady Han returned to the pavilion at the center of the lake, still smiling and chatting as if she had nothing to do.
Little Qiao hoped that she would reveal something of her own, but she did not say anything.
When Bai Xiaoqiao returned to his room after the meal, it was already late.
She did not want to lock herself in the darkness of the night and come to the garden alone. She overheard the sound of hooves, and when she passed over the wall, she saw two fast horses, one in front of the other, galloping at a speed that seemed as if they had vanished from the world.
In that split-second, Bai Xiaoqiao unexpectedly discovered that the two riders were Lady Han and Big Four. With a quick glance, they disappeared without a trace.
Bai Xiaoqiao's heart stirred as he thought to himself, ”This isn't good. Could it be that Miss Han is really going to rob that batch of calamity silver?”
When she thought of this, she became impatient.
For some reason, she couldn't stop worrying about this matter.
The reason for that was because in this disaster, she had seen how many people's wives had scattered. They were homeless, homeless, without a home, and their eyes were filled with grief.
Other than the fact that his family had suffered greatly, his father, Baiyu Dingli, had also generously donated money to provide for the meal. As the saying goes, display the love of your compatriots.
Now that they had finally gotten the official relief money, even though the tens of millions of victims were afraid of too little, it was still a matter of life and death.
If anyone still coveted the silver taels, it would be intolerable.
Before Bai Xiaoqiao personally witnessed Miss Han's involvement in the silver robbery, he couldn't be sure, even though he had his suspicions.
She couldn't help but recall what Miss Han had said just now. It was true that she was greatly amused. She clearly knew her martial arts were inferior to her opponent's, but even with her current righteousness, she couldn't back down.
He went back to the guest room and cleaned himself up quite neatly. He put on his sword and his escort bag. It looked like it was going to be dark soon.
She decided to make another trip to the Jiang-Nan hall to see what was going on.
The Jiang-Nan hall was eerily quiet on the moonlit night.
Last night's heavy rain was windy tonight.
The wind was blowing cold and blue, soaking the body, it was really cold, so cold that one's gums would clench.
