He was shocked. "Please look carefully. Did you put it somewhere else?"
Zheng Feibai searched all over his body but couldn't find it.
The couple were both somewhat bewildered. Zheng Feibai tried hard to recall when he had lost the wooden sign. Suddenly, he remembered: "It must have been the person who bumped into me!"
"You stay here to look after Fu Ge'er. I'll go downstairs and ask Dad and the others for advice." Zheng Feibai said hurriedly, then quickly opened the door and ran out.
He followed him to the door, but thinking of Fu Ge'er sleeping soundly on the bed, she had no choice but to return to the bedside. Fu Ge'er had almost died twice before, and she no longer dared to let him out of her sight, for fear that something might happen to him again in the blink of an eye.
While the husband's missing plaque was certainly worrying, it was only related to one competition. He hadn't held out much hope before entering, so even advancing in the first round was unexpected. Even if he couldn't find it, he wouldn't lose anything; he might even have earned a piece of jade.
In comparison, the son is the one who cannot afford to suffer any loss.
Thinking of this, He was not so anxious anymore. She sat down beside the bed and looked at her son who was sleeping like a pig, her eyes full of tenderness.
As long as her son is fine, she has nothing to fear.

Xue Huan was drawing a design in the room. In front of her was a basin of water. The clear water in the basin was mixed with spiritual spring water, and the pink jade was immersed in the water.
After being washed by the spiritual spring water, the jade became more transparent and beautiful than before.
At this moment, the barrier around the room suddenly shook. Xue Huan looked up and saw Zheng Yunu floating outside the window. She looked anxious and her soul showed signs of disintegration. It was obvious that she had just collided with the barrier, causing some damage to her soul.
Xue Huan waved her hand, and a crack appeared in the barrier. Zheng Yunu immediately floated in, "Xiaoxian, Feibai's wooden sign has been stolen!"
Xue Huan frowned. She had worried about this problem before and had even reminded Zheng Feibai about it, but she didn't expect something to go wrong.
"What's going on?"
Zheng Yunu quickly told her what happened.
As they were talking, Xue Huan had already followed her to the inn where the Zheng family was staying.
As expected, the person who stole Zheng Feibai's wooden sign was the one who bumped into him. Since that person had contact with Zheng Feibai, he must have left some trace.
Xue Huan released a scent-seeking bee. The bee flew around Zheng Feibai and recognized the scent of the thief. It nodded to Xue Huan and flew out.
"I already know the whereabouts of the wooden sign. You wait here, I'll be back soon."
She followed Xunxiangfeng out of the inn quickly, and Zheng Yunu followed.
In the Tianzi room of another inn near Feicuiguan.
Deng Cong was playing with a wooden plaque in his hand, with the numbers four, five, and seven, which was exactly Zheng Feibai's!
In the first competition, Deng Cong's conspiracy failed and he was beaten up instead. The strangest thing was that with so many people present, no one noticed it.
Although he didn't know how Zheng Feibai did it, it didn't prevent Deng Cong from hating him even more, and he even blamed him for his elimination.
Humph, aren't you feeling proud? Then I'll get your wooden sign and prevent you from participating in the second round!
Deng Cong grinned, but accidentally pulled the wound on the corner of his mouth, causing him to hiss in pain.
In a corner of the room, Xue Huan and Zheng Yunu, who had followed Xunxiang Feng, saw this scene.
Zheng Yunu looked at Deng Cong with extremely cold eyes. He was worthy of being Deng Lei's son, and was as despicable as him!
Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor, so she only took revenge on Deng Lei before, and did not vent her anger on his family. Now it seems that Deng Cong is not a good guy either, so she should get rid of him together.
Seeing her once clear eyes once again filled with hostility, Xue Huan cast a seal on her body, "Don't let hatred cloud your mind. Although Deng Cong is not a good person, he is still inferior to his father. He won't fall into the same situation as Deng Lei. Just give him a light punishment."
The resentment that was surging in Zheng Yunu's body subsided, "Yes."
At this time, a foul smell came from the corner of the room. It turned out that a big dog raised by Deng Cong had defecated.
When Xue Huan saw this, she suddenly had an idea. She moved her fingers and performed the Qingfeng Jue, and the wooden sign in Deng Cong's hand was blown to the ground.
"Strange, why did the wind start blowing out of nowhere?" Deng Cong walked over and picked up the wooden sign.
However, what he didn't know was that what he picked up was not a wooden sign, but a pile of dog shit that was magically transformed by Xue Huan!
The real wooden sign had been taken away by her long ago.
Deng Cong was holding the "wooden sign" with a smile on his face. The scene was so beautiful that people couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
In the afternoon's semi-final, Deng Cong came to the square with a few lackeys in a high-spirited manner and joined the team of contestants who advanced.
The contestant in front of him suddenly smelled a bad odor. He followed the smell and found that the odor was coming from Deng Cong's arms.
His expression suddenly became indescribable.
Deng Cong felt offended, "What are you looking at! Haven't you seen a handsome man as elegant and graceful as me?"
The contestant in front felt a chill in his heart, turned his head quickly, and moved forward, trying to stay as far away from him as possible.
Deng Cong looked forward and was stunned to find Zheng Feibai in the team.
His wooden sign was in his own hand, so how could he still participate in the competition? Could it be that he was trying to get away with using a fake one?
Haha, Zheng Feibai probably doesn’t know that there is a special mark on the wooden sign of the Gambling Stone Conference. If someone could get away with a fake one, wouldn’t the Gambling Stone Conference be in chaos long ago?
He waited to see him exposed!
However, Deng Cong waited and waited, but what he waited for was that Zheng Feibai passed smoothly and was let go by the inspector.
Deng Cong couldn't stand it any longer and immediately yelled, "Wait! The signboard of the person in front is fake!"
This voice immediately attracted countless attentions.
Deng Cong strode up to Zheng Feibai and said, "That's him!"
The inspector's expression became serious. Could it be that he really had made a mistake?
He said to Zheng Feibai, "Take out the wooden sign and let me check it again."
Zheng Feibai didn't look panicked at all and calmly took out the wooden sign. The inspector looked at it carefully again and it was clearly real!
"Okay, go in."
The look he gave Deng Cong turned unfriendly. "Second Master Deng, why do you say his wooden sign is fake?"
"I..." Deng Cong was stuck. What should he say? Could he even say that Zheng Feibai's wooden sign was actually in his hand?
Wouldn't that confirm that he stole Zheng Fei's white wooden plaque?
"Anyway, I just know it!"
The inspector also knew Deng Cong. This famous playboy in Yujing City was probably known to many people. It was obvious that this guy had not been promoted before. He might not remember others, but he had a grudge with Deng Cong, so he paid special attention to Deng Cong.
In the morning's competition, Deng Cong came out with nothing in his hands.
Now he actually came to line up with the second round of contestants?
The inspector grew impatient and beckoned over two guards: "This man is here to cause trouble, drag him out."
"Fuck you! I'm here to participate in the competition. This is my number plate. Open your dog eyes wide and let me see it clearly!"
Deng Cong took out the "number plate" from his arms.
