"What did you say?"
The next day, inside the inn, Dongfang Jun stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open as he said, "The Dongfang family's medicinal materials were robbed."
"Yes, young master," the visitor reported respectfully with his head bowed, "we were robbed by a dragon and a masked woman."
"Masked woman?" Dongfang Jun frowned, "Go find Nangong Zilan. I will immediately go against the family and report this matter to my father!"
Those medicinal herbs were extremely precious, and the master specially asked him to send people to such a faraway place to purchase them. Now they were robbed, which was a huge loss.
"Yes, young master!"
The visitor responded respectfully and retreated.
Originally, he wanted to cause trouble for Mu Ruyue here, but now it seems that he can only return to the head of the family first. He wondered who was so bold as to dare to rob the medicinal materials of their Dongfang family!
Dongfang Jun's eyes flashed with a dark light, and he sneered: "Dragon? And a masked woman? It seems that someone is against our Dongfang family. Is it someone from the Ouyang family, or the Moshang family? As for the Nangong family, it's impossible. The old man would not do such a thing. Besides, our two families are about to get married, so there is no need for him to do this..."
Then only these two families are possible!
He immediately stopped lingering and hurriedly packed his luggage and left Lingyun Country. Even though the two places were far apart, they could reach the destination in half a month...
Nangong family.
By the river, Nangong Lie was fishing when a petite figure suddenly rushed over from the side and crashed into his arms.
"Grandpa, I'm back."
Nangong Lie turned his head and looked at the woman who threw herself on him, and said with some resentment: "Girl, you are finally back. Did you have fun playing outside?"
Nangong Zilan's lips trembled and she said nothing.
As if noticing her strangeness, Nangong Lie frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"Grandpa..." Nangong Zilan pursed her pink lips, a complex look flashed across her eyes, "It's like this, I went to Lingyun Country with Brother Jun not long ago, and met Sister Xiaoyue, but Sister Xiaoyue seemed to ignore him, as if the two sides had a grudge against each other."
Nangong Lie raised his eyebrows: "And then?"
"Then, the Ouyang family invited Brother Jun to attend the dinner, so I went with them. But a lot of things happened at the dinner. A girl named Mu Ruyue, Xiaoyue's owner, told me that Brother Jun was actually a coward. When Xiaoyue left the Dongfang family, she was severely beaten by those people, but Brother Jun just watched coldly. Now he is pestering Sister Xiaoyue. Grandpa, do you think Brother Jun is such a person?"
Nangong Zilan lowered her head and buried it in Nangong Lie's chest.
Nangong Lie sighed and patted her head. "I don't like Dongfang Jun very much. I feel he is hypocritical and sinister. He looks gentle on the surface, but he is actually full of bad intentions. But since you like him, I can only let you do what you want. As for what the girl said, I will investigate it carefully. Zilan, don't worry, Grandpa will not let anyone hurt you."
Nangong Zilan forced a smile, and her pretty face looked even paler in the sunlight.
Seeing his granddaughter like this, Nangong Lie felt a little distressed: "Zilan, go see your Master Zishao. She is in seclusion in the back mountain. Since your Master Zishao appeared four years ago, your cultivation has improved. However, she seems to be a person with a story. Apart from seclusion and cultivation every day, she seems to have no other fun..."
