Chapter 116: Strange



The man didn't seem to expect that he would bump into someone. After a moment of shock, he quickly bent down to apologize, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, you didn't mean it."

Lu Wan then realized that he had wronged the good man. He laughed and was about to walk past the man and move forward, but was stopped by the man.

Seeing this, Shiqing and Huayi hurriedly stepped forward to put Lu Wanwai behind them, looked at the man in front of them warily, and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Seeing their actions, the man knew that the two had misunderstood him, and waved his hands hastily, saying, "I have no ill intentions towards these two girls, it's just—"

As he spoke, he looked around cautiously, then said, "I have some good things here that I'm eager to sell, but I can't find a buyer who suits my taste. But when I saw that you were dressed so well, I knew you must have the money to buy these things from me."

As he spoke, he mysteriously lifted up his coat a little, revealing a bit of emerald green, like fine jade.

Lu Wan had sharp eyes and saw everything clearly, then he couldn't help but frowning.

Ever since receiving the white jade bracelet from the Queen Mother, Lu Wandao has done some research on jewelry. It’s hard to say about other things, but at least he knows what is good and what is not.

It's not that she judges people by their appearance. Looking at the man in front of her, she doesn't look like a wealthy person, so how could he have such precious jade?

This is strange!

With doubts in his mind, Lu Wan smiled and said, "The things are good, but where did they come from?"

"You are a real expert, sir. I asked a lot of people before, and they all said it was fake. But it's my own thing, how can I not know whether it's real or fake?"

As he said this, the man subconsciously took two steps forward, and was quickly scolded by Shi Qing, "Just stand there and talk, why are you walking so close?"

The man paused in embarrassment and looked at Lu Wan attentively.

Lu Wan thought about it and felt that there might be something behind this matter. She rolled her eyes, took out her purse full of silver, and weighed it in front of the man.

Seeing the man's suddenly bright eyes, Lu Wan smiled slightly, "You can see that I am not short of money. As long as your things can satisfy me, I will naturally not give you anything less. But I have to take a closer look at your treasures. Are you willing?"

"Yes, yes."

The man nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"In that case, this is not the place to talk. Come with me."

Having said that, Lu Wan turned and left. Shi Qing and Hua Yi hurriedly followed him. The man seemed a little hesitant, but after his eyes turned to Lu Wan's wallet, he gritted his teeth and followed behind.

The group came to a teahouse, and Lu Wan asked for a private room. After sitting down, she reached out to the man. "It's safe enough here. Can you show me your treasure?"

Upon hearing this, the man hurriedly took out two emerald green bracelets from his arms, carefully wiped them on his clothes, and then handed them to Lu Wan to look at.

Lu Wan originally thought it was just one bracelet, but she didn't expect that the bracelets were a pair, both of which were equally beautiful.

This thing is much more precious than the pair of bracelets in Lu Wan's hand.

Lu Wan took a look, then turned to look at the man and asked, "Excuse me, are there any senior executives among your ancestors?"

The man's eyes had been on Lu Wan's hand. Hearing this, he frowned and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Hearing the man's suppressed panic, Lu Wan raised his eyebrows.

"Why, you can't tell me?"

Seeing that the man seemed a little uneasy, Lu Wan looked at him twice more, "If you robbed or stole this thing, wouldn't I also be guilty if I bought it?"

When the man heard this, his expression suddenly changed. "If you want to buy it, just buy it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

As he said this, he suddenly stood up, snatched his things from Lu Wan's hand, and stuffed them into his arms, shouting, "Give me back my things, I won't sell them."

Having said that, he turned around and was about to run outside.

Seeing the man confessing, Lu Wan hurriedly shouted, "There's something wrong with that thing, Shi Qinghua Yi, stop him quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Wan rushed out first.

Poetry and painting looked at each other and hurried to follow.

But the three of them were women after all, and they were no match for the anxious man. He pushed Lu Wan, who was the first to approach, to the ground, and then tried to run away.

Seeing that the man was about to leave, a look of regret flashed across Lu Wan's face.

Once he leaves like this, it will be difficult for us to meet him again.

Lu Wan was helped up by two maids. Just as she was about to say forget it, she suddenly heard a loud bang outside. Then a man was thrown into the room. Wasn't he the man who had run away from Lu Wan before?

Following him were three or four men dressed as guards. They bowed to Lu Wan and said, "Greetings, Lord Lu."

Lu Wan was stunned, but Huayi reminded him in his ear, "Sir, this is the guard of our palace."

"Luckily you arrived in time."

Hearing this, Lu Wan finally felt relieved. He looked at the three people strangely and asked, "How did you know I was here?"

The guards hurriedly bowed and said, "The housekeeper knew that you were leaving the house and was afraid that you might be in danger, so he ordered us to accompany you for protection. Please forgive me, sir."

"Nothing, nothing, everyone get up."

Seeing the guard who was talking peacefully just now kneeling on the ground in the blink of an eye, Lu Wan hurriedly asked them to stand up. The housekeeper did this for her own good, and she was not an ungrateful person.
