Chapter 383 Trusting Outsiders
"Yes, I don't know that person. However, he claimed to be from the capital." As the old lady spoke, she observed the expression on Yue Fuli's face, wanting to see her reaction.
She had already read the letter, so she felt a little uncomfortable because the letter pointed out that her son's personal guard had come to seek refuge with them, but was killed by Yue Fuli.
Yue Fuli didn't say anything, but opened the letter and started reading. When he finished reading the letter, he couldn't help but sneer.
As expected, her guess was correct. This letter was meant to stir up trouble. It even said that she had killed her father's personal guards, Yue Yi and the others.
When Yue Yi found her and handed her her father's handwritten letter, she guessed that he might have something in his hand that the person behind the scenes wanted.
Now it seemed that her guess was correct. Those people probably lost track of Yue Yi and became suspicious of her, so they wrote this letter to the old lady, hoping to disintegrate or alienate them from within.
Unfortunately, Yueyi and the others did not die, but had already recognized her as their master.
Therefore, after reading the letter, Yue Fuli looked up at the old lady and asked, "Do you believe what is said in this letter?"
"Me?" The old lady looked at Yue Fuli, unsure of what to say. She didn't believe it, but she actually had some faith. She had seen Yue Fuli kill people with her own eyes and knew how powerful she was. Even if there were ten times as many guards, Yue Fuli could handle them.
But in her subconscious, she felt that Yue Fuli would not kill them. After all, she was not that stupid. Those people were her son's personal guards. If Yue Fuli wanted to, she could recruit them for her own use.
But what made her feel uncomfortable was that Yue Fuli hadn't told her about such an important matter. In other words, her granddaughter didn't take her seriously, and it could be said that they were not on the same page.
This made her a little angry and unhappy. She was their elder, and she felt that no matter what happened, Yue Fuli should have told her.
"It seems that you would rather believe outsiders than me." Yue Fuli said in a light tone with a hint of sarcasm.
Sometimes, she really didn't know what was going on in the old lady's mind. So, when facing her, Yue Fuli would feel tired.
"No, I believe you." The old lady shook her head and said loudly, "You are my granddaughter, of course I believe you."
As if she could make Yue Fuli believe that she really believed her by saying this. But Yue Fuli was not a fool, how could she not see the old lady's true thoughts.
Yue Fuli glanced at the old lady and asked directly, "Where is the messenger? I want to see him."
"I, I don't know." The old lady shook her head, a trace of guilt flashing in her eyes. She actually knew where the other person lived because she had said that if she had any problems, she could go to her.
Seeing that the old lady was deliberately hiding something from him, Yue Fuli became increasingly disappointed. He simply put the letter away and said, "I'll keep this letter."
After saying that, she left the old lady's room directly.
Since the old lady was unwilling to tell her where the other person was, she would investigate on her own. She believed that the messenger had not left and might be nearby.
Even if not in the village, then in the town.
She didn't know what the man wanted to do, nor did she know what was in the old lady's mind, but she couldn't leave any hidden dangers. She had to find out the man's true purpose as soon as possible.
