"Nothing, I wonder if I'm overthinking it."
When she said this, she winked at Lu Xiangbei and hinted at him.
In fact, Liu Xiangnan already had a bold guess in her mind, but she had not returned to the Lu family yet, so she could not speak rashly.
Moreover, there is a high possibility that there are traps laid by the enemy, or some eavesdropping devices hidden somewhere. If she tells them and they hear her, she may be targeted by them.
Lu Xiangbei quickly understood and nodded: "What I just said was just a guess because I read too many suspense novels."
Liu Xiangnan held Lu Xiangbei's hand and walked out, muttering to himself.
"They've been away from the portrait for so long. If the key is the items on the picture, they should have taken it long ago. My master has been dead for four years, how could they only know about it now? Someone must have thought the magic mirror was handy and taken it. Even if they didn't, looking at the two-meter-deep hole, they must have taken all the hidden treasures."
After leaving the house, Liu Xiangnan took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Lu Xiangbei.
But she didn't let Lu Xiangbei check immediately, but whispered, "Check again in a few minutes."
Since those people have lurked in the village, it is difficult to guarantee that there are no eyes of theirs around.
It is better to be more rigorous.
Lu Xiangbei nodded softly.
Zheng Shouze, who was in the room, noticed footsteps outside the door, and his heart, which had originally calmed down, began to surge again.
He lay on the bed, snorted coldly, then sat up, picked up his pillow and smashed it against the door.
"Don't come in! I want to be alone!"
Liu Xiangnan had not originally planned to visit Zheng Shouze, but when he heard Zheng Shouze throwing a tantrum, his temper flared up.
She let go of Lu Xiangbei's hand, pushed open the door of the room, and stared at Zheng Shouze with a cold expression.
"If you have any complaints, come to me, don't take it out on the door."
Zheng Shouze looked at Liu Xiangnan's small body and a look of contempt flashed in his eyes.
"Come for you? Ha, Liu Xiangnan, do you think I'm afraid of you just because you have Lu Xiangbei backing you up?"
Liu Xiangnan was itching to give this brat a try.
Let him know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is.
"If you're not afraid, then come over and fight, and stop talking!"
"you!"
Zheng Shouze was a little angry for a moment. Why was he not satisfied?
Of course, I want to get her attention!
If he hadn't yelled that time, Zheng Shouze felt that Liu Xiangnan would simply ignore him and leave!
He is her biological brother!
But in his eyes, he is not as important as the relics of Jiang Mingyue next door!
Feeling dissatisfied and full of youthful passion, Zheng Shouze immediately raised his head and looked at Liu Xiangnan with a frown.
"I'll hit you if I want to. I'm not afraid of you!"
He deliberately rubbed his nose with his index finger, made a cool, handsome and dazzling POSS, and said: "Don't cry for your parents later. Although we have the same mother, I won't let you! And I won't feel sorry for you because you are a girl!"
"You're a grown man, but you're still dithering. Stop talking nonsense and start fighting!"
Liu Xiangnan glanced at him coldly, got into a fighting stance, raised his hand and swung his fist towards Zheng Shouze's face.
"Are you serious?"
Zheng Shouze thought Liu Xiangnan was just joking and he was just bragging.
But now, seeing the power brought by Liu Xiangnan's fist, it is enough to prove that Liu Xiangnan is not just talking for fun!
Zheng Shouze panicked a little and quickly took a few steps back and began to dodge.
In order to arouse Zheng Shouze's bloodiness, Liu Xiangnan spoke with a hint of hatred.
"Although we share the same mother, our fathers have a deep blood feud. You and I will never reconcile! Stop hiding, fight!"
Liu Xiangnan's moves were full of momentum. Zheng Shouze seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned into a balloon that was holding its air, and became wilted.
This resulted in Zheng Shouze getting bruised on his face.
Seeing him change from being outspoken to being silent and allowing her to beat him, Liu Xiangnan suddenly felt bored.
She stopped.
"Why didn't you fight back?"
Zheng Shouze raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, lowered his head, and a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes that he himself did not even notice.
"say!"
Seeing that he didn't fight back or reply, Liu Xiangnan's hatred went from pretend to real.
"I know everything."
Zheng Shouze didn't stay in this village for nothing.
At the beginning, everyone treated him well and even loved him.
But after people found out that he was Pan Jinlian's second child, their attitude towards him became a little colder.
He also learned from the elderly that Pan Jinlian had abandoned Liu Xiangnan. Not only that, she also killed Yuan Hongyu in order to force Liu Xiangnan to marry Lu Xiangbei.
He also understood Liu Xiangnan's life over the past decade or so, which was much harder than his.
He is a kind-hearted person and feels a little sorry for Liu Xiangnan.
But sometimes, he felt that he was innocent.
He clearly didn't do anything, but he had to suffer Liu Xiangnan's punishment.
After a simple feeling of grievance, he felt that all this was what he deserved.
He is the only one who can repay the affection that Pan Jinlian owes to Liu Xiangnan.
"To apologize to your adoptive father and to apologize to your mother for abandoning you, I am willing to be tortured and beaten by you. I am willing to repay their debt to you."
Liu Xiangnan looked at Zheng Shouze who lowered his head and apologized to her, and her heart was strangely touched.
But soon, she forced down the soft touch and turned it into a cold and hard rock.
"No, you don't know. What I truly hate is that Pan Jinlian cheated on me, got pregnant, and then, together with your father, Zheng Dalin, killed my biological father, Liu Yucheng! Not only that, but your Zheng family's prosperity over the past fifteen years has all come from my father's money. Do you understand? You simply can't repay so many lives!"
Zheng Shouze was stunned.
He just felt his ears buzzing.
"This, this is impossible..."
He couldn't believe that his loving mother and strict father could have done such a heinous thing fifteen years ago!
"You don't believe it?"
Liu Xiangnan sneered: "Do you want to come with me and listen to what your own biological mother has to say?"
"No, don't!"
Zheng Shouze found it difficult to accept. He shook his head and didn't want to listen.
He was scared.
I was afraid that Pan Jinlian would actually say that she had killed someone fifteen years ago...
He is only fifteen years old this year...
"Isn't that unbearable?"
Liu Xiangnan looked at Zheng Shouze, who looked devastated, and laughed.
"They've committed countless crimes, and you want to pay them back? Even if you give them ten or a hundred lives as compensation, it still won't be enough!"
