Just in case, Jiang Jinxiu wanted to bring Chengzi along, but that girl had disappeared somewhere and wouldn't respond no matter how she called her.

Just as she was about to give up, Orange suddenly appeared on their roof.

Before she could say anything, Orange started meowing at her incessantly.

"Meow meow meow..." Master, Master, that ugly woman He Mei is actually with a very ugly man. I've been playing on the mountain these past few days, and I've run into them every day.

The man also had a weapon in his hand, and no small animal he encountered along the way could escape his clutches.

That's amazing.

They shamelessly do that kind of thing all the time, it's an eyesore for me and my friends.

Orange complained and said it with disdain.

"Then why are you still watching?" Jiang Jinxiu said, somewhat speechless. "Don't you know it's not suitable for children? Be careful you don't get a sty."

"Meow meow meow..." Who wants to go and see? I was playing with my little brothers, and they just bumped into me.

Do you expect me to hide far away from them every time I see them?

However, my underlings are quite timid. Seeing how skilled that man is at hunting, they always keep their distance whenever they encounter him.

I had no choice but to follow them, but I still encountered them every day...

Orange kept complaining, and perhaps because she had been calling for so long, she attracted the attention of Gu Xichen and the others.

Gu Xichen had a gut feeling that Chengzi was talking to his wife, but she was being too talkative, going on and on.

He glanced at it, and Orange, who was talking enthusiastically, suddenly stopped talking.

He didn't dare to move, staring at Jiang Jinxiu with his mouth agape.

Jiang Jinxiu was both amused and exasperated.

After a long while, Orange said in a pitiful voice, "Master, the male master is so fierce."

Jiang Jinxiu glanced at Gu Xichen and then at Chengzi: "Serves you right. Who told you to shout it out? And keep shouting. You could have just used telepathy."

"Meow meow meow..." Master, I was so excited I forgot.

Three black lines appeared on Jiang Jinxiu's forehead.

What weapon was that man carrying?

"A knife, a very long and sharp knife."

"Very powerful? More powerful than your master?"

"I don't know. Anyway, he's the most reckless person I've ever met. It's like..."

The orange wanted to describe itself, but no matter how hard it racked its brains, it couldn't come up with a suitable adjective.

It's just really scary.

"Then why don't you go up and fight him to see how good he is?"

"Meow meow meow..." Am I just bored? Don't you humans have a saying, "It's not the horizontal that's scary, it's the reckless one"?

When Jiang Jinxiu heard what Chengzi said, she thought of what Chengzi said about He Mei actually being with that man. Wasn't that like asking a tiger for its skin?

That's really bold.

If she wasn't mistaken, that man was the fugitive Huang Tao and his team were trying to catch.

Unexpectedly, after they left that day, He Mei went into the deep mountains with the fugitive and was able to get along with him safely.

They stayed in the mountains for so many days.

"Do you know where they are now?"

"Meow meow meow..." They've gone down the mountain, but I don't know the details. I can't be bothered with them; they're so ugly, they're an eyesore.

Jiang Jinxiu shook her head; she knew that Chengzi was being arrogant again.

Jiang Jinxiu really wanted to repeat what Chengzi had said to Huang Tao, but she couldn't find any other excuse.

She had no choice but to lean close to Gu Xichen's ear and whisper to him about the fugitive and He Mei going down the mountain.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xichen's eyes became very deep.

He stared intently at the oranges on the roof for a moment, then said nothing.

The matter concerning his wife's family has come together with the matter of the fugitive that Huang Tao and his team are tracking. They must be very careful.

Especially since He Mei is still with that fugitive.

It's hard to guarantee she won't take the opportunity to retaliate.

right,

revenge.

A sudden inspiration struck Gu Xichen; he seemed to have grasped something.

He pulled Jiang Jinxiu back into the room.

Jiang Jinhua's anger flared up again when she saw that Gu Xichen was still thinking about pulling his sister back into the house instead of preparing to go out.

He tried to stop him, but he was too slow and was immediately shut out.

"Sis, sis, open the door! Gu Xichen, you bastard! You still have the mind to go back to your room at a time like this? Don't you know what's important? Our parents are waiting for us..."

Huang Tao couldn't understand what Gu Xichen was doing, but he still trusted Gu Xichen.

Now that he's going in with Jiang Jinxiu, they must have something to say.

It's just that we can't let them hear it.

Thinking this, he began to persuade Jiang Jinhua: "Xiaohua, your sister and brother-in-law have something to discuss, so don't bother them."

"No, no, can't we just talk things out and solve them together? Why all the secrecy? I bet he's just being lecherous..."

Jiang Jinhua was so anxious that she said anything at all.

He felt uneasy when he heard that Jiang Jinxiu and Gu Xichen had something to say but avoided him.

When did his sister stop telling him her secrets?

Jiang Jinhua's words made Huang Tao feel ashamed.

Gu Xichen's image in his brother-in-law's eyes is really not good.

The other officers wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

Jiang Jinxiu, inside the house, had a dark expression on her face. She yelled at the door, "Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll shut you up! Your brother-in-law and I are going to discuss something and we'll be leaving soon. Don't think anything out of the ordinary."

Jiang Jinhua immediately fell silent.

It seems that Jiang Jinxiu's words still have an effect.

Compared to Jiang Jinhua's fuss, Jiang Jinxiu still trusted Gu Xichen. "Xichen, is there something you need?"

"Honey, call your cat in."

Jiang Jinxiu didn't think much of it and directly called Chengzi into the room.

Upon hearing Jiang Jinxiu's call, Chengzi leaped through the window and quickly climbed into Jiang Jinxiu's arms.

"Meow meow meow..." Master, what's the matter?

While asking questions, he snuggled and rubbed against Jiang Jinxiu's chest.

Instead of receiving a reply from Jiang Jinxiu, it felt a chill down its spine. Turning around, it saw the male owner staring at it with a sinister look.

It felt like the cat was about to be killed to silence it.

With a start, Chengzi jumped directly from Jiang Jinxiu's arms onto the roof beam, then quickly climbed to the highest point before stopping, making sure the male owner wouldn't catch her.

"Meow meow meow..." Master, the male master is so scary.

Jiang Jinxiu wanted to facepalm, but shouldn't there be important business to attend to right now?

"Alright, Xichen, don't take it to heart. What did you call it here for?"

It was only then that Orange realized it had found not its owner, but its male owner.

Gu Xichen's expression softened a bit at this point. He held the note up towards Chengzi and said, "Go do two things. First, find out whose note this is. Second, find out where He Mei and that man are. You have half an hour."
