C45 (1/2)

An Su had long forgotten how it felt to be pummeled and flirted with by others. When she was young, her father and second sister loved to pinch her face, and so did Cousin Ze. However, ever since she was an adult, no one had ever done such intimate gestures towards her.

Even if Xie Wentao pinched her face to test his, he wouldn't be at a disadvantage to her. In the end, he still felt a bit uncomfortable. If it wasn't to dispel the suspicions of the two, she would have broken her hands long ago.

”Once you've touched it enough, move your claws away!”

An Su resisted the killing intent in her heart and waved her sleeve to slap away Xie Wentao's still wanton claws.

The back of Xie Wentao's hand was smacked red. He pouted and said unhappily, ”Ji Hua Chang, this woman is too ruthless. Look, you've swollen his hand.”

An Su ignored him. ”Now, are you sure I'm real? As descendants of the Wang and Xie Families, they were unavoidable. Even if you guys wanted to escape from this conflict, the situation might not allow it. I also do not believe that you two have no ambitions. There's no point in talking any further. When will you guys have news of her? ”

”Only the portrait will not be revealed to anyone. I can only temporarily copy a few copies and hand them to my trusted aides to check.” I am not sure when there will be news, but I will do so as soon as possible. ” Wang Xuanlang replied with a piece of Xuan paper.

If she knew who she was, she wouldn't need them to find out. An Su took the things that Wang Xuanlang had given her and quickly left the Flowing Dawn Pavilion.

Wang Xuanlang and Xie Wentao were still sitting quietly in their room for a long time.

A jade box appeared out of nowhere in Xie Wentao's hands. After carefully smearing the medicine on it, he could not help but ask, ”Do you really believe her and want to cooperate with her?”

”How can an alliance be settled with just a few words?”

Wang Xuanlang frowned. ”However, what she said may not be completely untrustworthy. Prince Xian's influence is already great enough in the imperial court. If there's really someone helping him in the dark, then he's hiding too much.” So no matter what, we have to find this woman first. ” Whether the two were related or not, the person who found it would naturally know.

As a man, he, Wang Xuanlang, was naturally ambitious, but the situation was different. At that time, the Wang family would be feared by all the kings, and the crown prince would be framed and taken away by others. Grandfather and Aunt had no choice but to endure the pain and ask their cousin to guard the Royal Tomb.

Although it looked like he was disobedient, he was actually avoiding it to protect himself.

In the past few years, his grandfather was the head of a hundred officials, but he had always been cautious about it. In the past few years, his grandfather was the head of a hundred officials, but in these past few years, his grandfather was always cautious about it, and the officials and generals of the imperial court were never on good terms with each other.

In the end, it was still that sentence: How could there be a perfect egg under the cover of a nest?

Hearing that, Xie Wentao put down the medicine box and picked up the piece of paper. He frowned as he stared at the portrait and carefully examined it. His face showed a perplexed and vexed expression. Even his long eyebrows were scrunched up tightly.

Wang Xuanlang frowned, ”Wen Tao, you know this woman?”

”Not really.”

Xie Wentao shook his head. ”He's a kind person, but I can't remember where I've seen her before. If I had, how could I not remember her. It's too strange …”

Wang Xuanlang was stunned. This proved that Ji Huaguang was not lying. There was indeed such a woman. Even Wen Tao had seen her before, so what was the scope of the search?

”Don't be in such a hurry to go back and think about it. It would be good if you could remember. This way, it'll be easier for us to investigate.” Wang Xuanlang instantly suppressed his smile and consoled her.

Xie Wentao nodded. ”I will think it over carefully. I must remember this. If I find her and say that he is not keeping up with us, then perhaps this will be our chance to get rid of her.”

The two of them continued to warm up for a while before leaving together.

After making sure that the two of them would not return, the person who had been guarding the house's beam finally flew down and rapidly shot out of the window pane, quickly disappearing into the flickering light of the night.

At this point, An Su, who was prepared to return to the Hou Mansion, was halfway through her journey when she was once again robbed.

”Absolute Calamity Pavilion.”

An Su pulled on the reins to stop the carriage. Looking at the people blocking the road, she said, ”Why are you still lingering like this? Did the person who bought my life increase the price again, or is she trying to avenge the dead?” Last time, there were twelve killers. This time, six of them looked stronger than the other twelve.

”You were lucky enough to escape the calamity last time when someone helped you, and now that you've harmed twelve of my subordinates, the Japanese Pavilion Master will settle this debt with you. You won't be able to escape even if you had wings!”

”Absolute Evil Pavilion's Pavilion Master?”

An Su laughed contemptuously, ”I didn't expect that the pavilion master would have to deal with me personally. But how do you know that no one will help me this time? Are you sure you want to touch his woman here, right in front of my man? Aren't you afraid that he'll destroy your nest? ”

”Your man? Who, the Sixth Prince? ”

The pavilion master laughed out loud: ”I reckon that the Sixth Prince is still sleeping with his head covered. Besides, who doesn't know that you don't have a fiance? Or are you talking about the Imperial Advisor? The White Deer Garden is still far from here, and the Imperial Advisors wouldn't be passing by here at this time.
