Lin Wu flatly refused their offer to send him off again, and got into the car without even looking back. Only then was he finally spared from being dragged along by them to talk about pleasantries until the evening.

Zheng Yuan, who was driving, couldn't help but sigh: "That's great."

"? Where is good?"

Lin Wu looked at him.

Zheng Yuan said: "Master, your new family is so nice. They care about you so much and will definitely treat you well in the future."

Lin Wu's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "I just have a headache."

Zheng Yuan smiled but said nothing, concentrating on driving.

Lin Wu also looked out the window, and after a while he suddenly said, "Remember to suppress the news that I went to the Gu family today. I have already told the Gu family not to make my relationship with them public for the time being."

Zheng Yuan tightened his grip on the steering wheel and said, "Master, will you speed up the plan because of the Gu family's decision? That might not be good for you."

Lin Wu rubbed his brow and said, "I know."

Zheng Yuan sighed slightly.

The two quickly returned to Xijin Mansion.

Bo Yuting had not returned yet.

Lin Wu let Zheng Yuan go, took the photos he brought back from Gu's house to the study, took pictures, imported them into the electronic version, and spent some time restoring the image quality.

After the operation is completed, it will take a few minutes for the final result to come out.

Lin Wu supported his head with his fingers, thinking about the previous owner of the funeral industry while waiting.

Not long after, the results were displayed on the huge screen. The picture quality was much clearer than the photo Lin Wu had in his hand, and he could just barely make out the faces of the people on it.

Lin Wu paid special attention to note the appearance of the young man, took a screenshot and transferred it to his mobile phone, then looked through the address book to find the person he wanted and sent the photo to him.

The other party quickly replied: [? ]

Lin Wu typed: [Don’t you know how to draw a three-year-old? I want what this person might look like when he grows up.]

After this message was sent, there was silence for a moment on the other end.

I guess he was carefully looking at the photos Lin Wu sent him.

After a while, the other party replied, and there was some silence between the lines.

[The facial features of the person in this photo are not very high-definition, and his hair covers part of his forehead and eyes. I can't feel his bone texture. How can I draw it for you? ]

[At least give me a photo of this person's face. ]

Lin Wu: [No.]

other side:【……】

Lin Wu: [This is the only photo I have, and it is the clearest one after I retouched it.]

The other party fell silent.

Lin Wu looked at the dialog box above which showed that the other party was typing, then disappeared, and after a moment it showed that the other party was typing again.

Five minutes later, the other party sent a well-thought-out sentence.

[Are you trying to make trouble for me on purpose? ? ]

Lin Wu didn't say much and transferred a sum of money with seven zeros.

The other person's expression changes like turning pages of a book.

[I understand. This is your recognition and assessment of my professional ability, as well as encouragement and supervision. I hope I will not stagnate and be complacent, but strive to reach greater heights! ]

[Three days! I will definitely draw it for you! ]

Lin Wu put down his phone as if he was used to it.

The next moment she turned around suddenly, reached out, turned the computer screen around and dragged it in front of her to take a closer look.

Her eyes fell on Chi Yangzhi's position in the photo.

The little girl's face also became much clearer.

Her facial features were ordinary, and could only be described as pretty. Her eyes and eyebrows also showed timidity, which made her look a little timid.

Looking at it this way, she actually doesn't look like the current Chi Yangzhi at all! It's just that the previous photo was blurry, so it's hard to tell.

But if you look closely, this little girl and Chi Yangzhi have somewhat similar facial shapes and eyes, so it's reasonable to say that she is Chi Yangzhi who hasn't grown up.

Lin Wu frowned and looked at it for a while, then took a screenshot and sent it to Chi Yangzhi, asking if it was a photo of her childhood.

Chi Yangzhi called her directly.

She was very happy that Lin Wu contacted her, and said with a smile: "Yes, this is a photo of mom when she was still in the orphanage. I remember your dad had one, and I didn't expect that he not only showed it to you, but also kept it so well. But these are not important. What's important is that it seems that you and your dad had a good chat in the study this morning. Next time you are free, mom will also have a private chat with you."

Lin Wu nodded and hung up the phone without saying a few words.

After getting Chi Yangzhi's admission, Lin Wu stopped reading, turned off the computer and went downstairs to get some water.

As luck would have it, Bo Yuting came back at this time, and when Lin Wu went downstairs, he just opened the door and came in.

Lin Wu took a look and saw that the man had a gloomy aura and a bad look on his face, and even the air seemed to be stagnant.

"What's wrong? Is things not going well in the Bo family?"

She stopped and asked.

The man looked up suddenly when he heard the voice, with a coldness in his dark eyes that had not yet dissipated, but it softened when he saw Lin Wu.

He casually put his coat aside, came over and without saying anything, he hugged Lin Wu, slightly bent his back, and buried his handsome face deep in her neck.

Lin Wu frowned, "Did someone in the Bo family really bully you?"

"……no."

The man held her for a long time, and then let her go as he seemed to be in a better mood.

He kissed Lin Wu's forehead and said, "Those people from the Bo family who are jumping around are not enough for me to kill with just one finger. As soon as I show up, they dare not do anything. It's easy to solve them."

"Then why are you in a bad mood?" Lin Wu asked.

Bo Yuting's eyes were gloomy, and he did not hide anything from her: "After dealing with the Bo family, I was going to look for you, but I suddenly received a call from some old friends of my master, so I went to the black market to meet them."

An old friend of his master Miao Ren? Lin Wu's eyes deepened and he asked, "Is there something wrong with the antique business?"

Bo Yuting pulled her to sit down and said, "If it was an accident in the industry, it would be fine. It can be solved anyway. It won't be too difficult. But my master's old friends told me that when they went to pay tribute to my master a few days ago, they sorted out his relics and found something unexpected. After thinking it over, they decided to let me handle it."

Lin Wu asked: "What is it?"

Bo Yuting took out his cell phone and opened the photo album to show her the photos he had taken.

It was a palm-sized wooden box, and inside it lay a small lump of something that looked like a plant root. It must have dried and hardened over time. There were also some dark red spots on the surface, which looked like dried blood.

"What's this?"

Lin Wu was confused.

Bo Yuting said: "At that time, I also asked what it was. Those people told me that it was dried blood vine, a kind of detoxification plant that grows in parts of Lingnan. I was quite surprised because I had never heard that my master had been to Lingnan. I asked them how my master could have such a thing, and they hesitated and finally told me an event that happened many years ago in the Five Elements. They also said that this thing was not obtained by my master from Lingnan, but from someone from another line of the Five Elements."

Lin Wu understood immediately after hearing this: "Is it about the funeral procession where the previous owner of the business was exterminated?"

Bo Yuting was having a headache, thinking about how to tell Lin Wu appropriately. Hearing this, he could not hide his surprise: "How did you know this?"

Lin Wu said, "I was at the Gu family, and Gu Tangzhang told me. But judging from the situation, your master has some hidden secrets that are unknown to the public. What did they tell you? Tell me, and I'll see if there is any discrepancy between what I know and what I know."
