Chapter 140 Muddy Waters

When did his hiding skills become so useless? Even though he was so far away from Bai Yangfan's house and found such a secluded corner, how could that woman know about it?

What kind of nose is that? Is it a dog's? Is she smelling him?

Bai Yangfan: “…” You are the one who was born in the year of the dog, your whole family is born in the year of the dog. Dog man! Seeing how hard you have been waiting, I give you a chance and you are still complaining. If you don’t want it, just say so.

How could he not want it? He came here to stalk the mule, and this time we caught him and had to interrogate him thoroughly.

It was not only Lu Jingheng who came, but also two partners, both of whom had followed him for a long time and also knew Bai Yangfan.

But they had never seen her take action before. Today was the first time they saw it, and both of them felt like they were almost unable to breathe.

"Wow! Boss! My sister-in-law is amazing." Fengyunzhong's eyes sparkled with admiration. "She subdued the mule in just three moves. We fought him for a long time last time in Liujia Village, but we still couldn't catch him."

Yun Shangtian glanced at Feng Yunzhong and sighed, "Boss! I think you have to win my sister-in-law over as soon as possible. She's so outstanding, you'll be in trouble if she gets seduced away by another young master from aristocratic family."

Lu Jingheng glared at Yun Shangtian with a dark face. Although he didn't say anything, he was secretly criticizing him. "You ignorant fool, don't I know your sister-in-law is so good? Don't I know she'll be taken away by someone else?"

Your sister-in-law is ignoring me, isn't she? What can I do? If I keep pushing her, she'll only get more annoyed. My grandfather was right. Let's all calm down for a while, and then we'll see how the situation develops before deciding on our offensive strategy.

When he entered the woman's home, Lu Jingheng kept his mouth shut for the first time. He didn't say a word, not even a greeting. He took out handcuffs, handcuffed the mule, and took it away silently.

Seeing that the boss didn't say anything, Feng Yunzhong and Yun Shangtian didn't dare to say anything more. They smiled ingratiatingly at Bai Yangfan and followed Lu Jingheng to escort the mule away.

The moment the door closed, Bai Yangfan felt that something was wrong with the man. He used to be very smooth-talking when he saw her, but today he was like a mute and didn't say a word.

I still feel a little uncomfortable, and I always feel that he is planning some big move.

But no matter what tricks he used, Bai Yangfan decided not to accept them. She had made it very clear in her words just now that she just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life and didn't want anything else.

Those words were spoken to the mule, but also to the dog man.

I hope he can understand and stop disturbing her.

The fact that the mule was able to find this place must be related to the Bai family in Kyoto.

She had guessed it the first time Bai Rufeng took the initiative to show her kindness. This woman who looked so high and mighty, who didn't care about anyone in the dormitory, showed kindness to her for no reason. Why?

What else did he say to her: "I really feel like I've known you since I saw you. We both have the surname Bai. Maybe we were from the same family five hundred years ago."

Hit it off right away? Huh! Why didn't we hit it off right away when we first arrived? But after returning home, we felt like we hit it off right away? I don't know how Bai Rufeng came up with such a lame excuse.

It doesn’t matter, as long as they don’t target her, she can pretend she knows nothing.

If anyone touches her and her brother, Bai Yangfan will never show mercy.

She had said those words targeting the Bai family to Mule on purpose. Since the Bai family had revealed their information to Mule, she could also plant a seed of doubt in Mule's heart.

Whether her guess was right or not, she would let Mule verify it. She would muddy the waters and let the Bai family and Mule's group verify each other's facts. The final result would have nothing to do with her.

She continued to read her books and study medicine.

When Mr. Bai learned that Mule was missing, his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly felt that Bai Yangfan from Liujia Village was not simple. Mule had clearly gone to look for her, so how could she have disappeared?

Did she get what she wanted and leave without saying goodbye? Or was she hiding from him on purpose, not wanting to be honest with him?

Humph! The Zeng family has been in Elephant Country for so long that they've become like bandits, acting erratically and irrationally.

Let him disappear! He won't be able to find the Li Wang Ding.

It is true that Bai Yangfan is a member of the Bai family, it is true that he has the silver hairpin, and it is true that he opened the tomb of King Li in Liujia Village. But since the tomb is fake, maybe the hairpin is also fake.

Only the fake tomb could be opened; her silver hairpin could not open the real tomb at all.

Old Master Bai looked through several ancient books before he confirmed his guess that the Li Wang Ding really existed, but he didn't know where it was.

Back then, their Bai family and the Bai family of Liujia Village were of the same clan, but later on, for some reason, they drifted to Kyoto and forgot about the Bai family of Liujia Village.

If the person from Zeng's family hadn't mentioned this matter and showed him a notebook, he wouldn't have helped to inquire about Bai Feng's news.

After reading the notebook, Mr. Bai looked through a family tree and some ancient books left by his family, which proved that the Li Dynasty had indeed cast a bronze tripod.

Ancient texts also record that the guards of King Li's tomb included not only members of the Bai family, but also a secret guard named Hua. Three teams in total guarded King Li's tomb and the King Li Tripod. Despite numerous inquiries, no one could find out where the secret guard named Hua had gone.

It's really because the past is too long ago, so it's common that we can't find out anything about it.

After eliminating the things in Bai Yangfan's hand, Grandpa Bai felt that his granddaughter Bai Rufeng had not completed the task ideally.

However, he didn't give any instructions and just let her stay with Bai Yangfan, hoping that she could gain something from it.

The Li Wang Ding is a valuable item. It has been sold at sky-high prices in foreign auction markets. If it can be found and secretly taken out, the Bai family will make considerable profits.

For a long time, the Bai family has had connections with the underworld and the white world in countries surrounding China, and has also gained a lot of benefits.

It’s a pity that Li Wangding has never been found, otherwise he would have been able to collect a generous sum of money during his lifetime.

Mr. Bai is very cautious, modest and sincere in his work, giving people the impression of being low-key and reserved. The Bai family has been able to stand firm in Kyoto for a long time, thanks to his painstaking efforts.

Bai Yangfan has been taking his younger brother to familiarize himself with the terrain around Kyoto these days. They not only take the bus but also walk to teach his younger brother how to identify directions and how to find the way.

Since there is nothing to do, I might as well just go camping.

The brother and sister went out for several days and finally visited all the counties around Kyoto.

Every day they go out very early and come back very late. When they get home, they are so tired that they don’t want to talk. They just eat something, wash up and lie down to sleep.

Today is the last day for us to go out for a run. School will start soon and my brother hasn’t finished his summer homework yet, so he can’t go out for a run anymore.

Unexpectedly, when they came back, they saw Lu Jingheng standing at their door. The brother and sister were stunned, and Bai Yangfan's face instantly turned unhappy.

"What are you doing here?"
