But since Jiang Ming had put in the effort to prepare, Shen Zhiyi couldn't really say anything to him.
Having a car made things much faster; we arrived in Nanzhen in just half a day.
However, the three of them hadn't gotten out of the car yet.
Looking at the cartload of rations, Shen Zhiyi asked, "Are you lonely with all this stuff?"
Jiang Ming paused for a moment, then said, "This is my first time going out on my own, I don't know much about it, please don't mind."
At this moment, the guards at the entrance of Nanzhen Town spotted them and came over.
"Hello, what are you doing?"
Jiang Ming rolled down the car window and handed his identification to the guard.
"I am Jiang Ming from Central Town. I'm here in South Town to handle some business."
The guard took the document and examined it, discovering that they were indeed from Central Town. He quickly asked, "Young Master Jiang, what about these two behind him?"
“They are my assistants,” Jiang Ming said casually, without changing his expression.
The guard was puzzled. Shouldn't the assistant be driving? Why was Young Master Jiang driving himself?
However, these are things he can't worry about. Anyway, Jiang Ershao brought these people himself, so he will take responsibility for them.
Jiang Ming drove to Nanzhen and they found a hotel to stay in.
After tidying up, the three of them gathered in one room.
"Sis, will Wang Qianyu tell you the truth?" Jiang Ming brought over a bag of food and placed it on the table.
Shen Zhiyi took a bag of snacks and fed them to Black Wolf while eating, saying, "No."
Jiang Ming exclaimed, "Then what are you going to do?"
"I just want to see what He Jiajia will do after I leave Central Town, and I also want to know if He Jiajia will get angry after she finds out that I came to South Town."
Shen Zhiyi popped a piece of dried fruit into her mouth and found it quite good, so she quickly took another piece and stuffed it into the mouth of Nalan Zhao, who was sitting to the side.
"What kind of dried fruit is this? It's delicious."
Jiang Ming glanced at what Shen Zhiyi was holding and replied, "Black Gold Fruit, a kind of fruit unique to Black Gold Mountain. How is it? Delicious, isn't it?"
Shen Zhiyi nodded.
...
He Jiajia did indeed send people to keep an eye on the area near the Jiang family's residence. The news that Shen Zhiyi and Jiang Ming had left Central Town had already reached He Jiajia's ears.
The person who was following Shen Zhiyi and her group almost went crazy after telling He Jiajia that their destination was Nanzhen.
He Jiajia slammed her hand on the table in anger, "What on earth does this woman want to do! Why did she have to go to Nan Town!"
He Jiajia knew about Wang Qianyu's affairs in Nanzhen.
Adding to what Shen Zhiyi had said earlier, He Jiajia felt that she must know Wang Qianyu.
If... if Wang Qianyu really tells her the truth, they're all doomed!
He Jiajia felt something was wrong the more she thought about it. Shen Zhiyi couldn't have gone to Nanzhen for no reason. She must have known something, otherwise why would she suddenly go to Nanzhen?
He Jiajia couldn't sit still any longer; she had to send someone to find out what Shen Zhiyi was doing in Nanzhen.
If, if she really did go to find Wang Qianyu, then don't blame her for being impolite!
A cold glint flashed in He Jiajia's eyes. It didn't matter if Hong En didn't help her. Did he really think that she had been a pampered young lady in the He family for the past few years and knew nothing?
She knew that Hong En disliked her and didn't treat her like a sister at all. Coincidentally, she didn't treat him like a brother either.
He Jiajia called someone over, whispered a few words in his ear, and then sent him away.
South Town, evening.
"Sis, is He Jiajia no good? Why is there still no sign of anything happening?" Jiang Ming complained while eating.
Shen Zhiyi borrowed the hotel's kitchen, cooked a meal, and just sat down to eat.
Nalan Zhao sat next to Shen Zhiyi, eating quietly without disturbing their conversation.
Shen Zhiyi took a sip of porridge. "What's the rush? If she could be that fast, something would be amiss."
"It'll probably be tomorrow, don't worry."
Jiang Ming pursed his lips, but then thought it made sense, so he didn't say anything more.
But as expected, something unexpected is about to happen.
Do you all remember Guo Zexin who ran away before? Guo Zexin has returned to Nanzhen sometime ago.
While he was strolling on the street, he unexpectedly bumped into Shen Zhiyi.
He had seen Shen Zhiyi's portrait at the goddess's place, and knew that this person was the one who killed Xiong Lin, and also knew that this person was the one who let those girls go.
However, since Shen Zhiyi is already on the goddess's list, she can only keep her around for a while. When the goddess is free to make a move, that will be Shen Zhiyi's death day.
Although that's what he said, Guo Zexin still decided to trip up Shen Zhiyi, after all, she had caused him so much trouble back then!
If those women hadn't been so stupid, he would have died in that forest long ago.
Thinking of this, Guo Zexin felt a burning hatred.
At night, everyone is resting.
Guo Zexin sneaked up to Shen Zhiyi's room. He knew there was a black wolf inside, so he was very cautious.
She first knocked lightly on the door, then quickly hid in the stairwell to the side.
Black Wolf walked to the door in confusion, listened for a moment, and finding no sound, returned to the bedside and lay down.
After going back and forth three times, the black wolf got a little annoyed and realized that someone was probably playing a prank.
Finally, the black wolf could no longer bear it and simply raised its paw to open the door.
It stood at the door and looked around. It spotted a dark figure flash by the stairwell door. A cold glint flashed in its wolf eyes. It glanced at Shen Zhiyi, who was still sleeping, and then followed her.
Meanwhile, Guo Zexin, who was around the other corner, chuckled twice, surprised that the black wolf was really stupid.
With such a simple trick, Black Wolf was lured out without even closing the door.
Guo Zexin looked around to make sure no one was there, then entered Shen Zhiyi's room.
Shen Zhiyi was lying on the bed with her back to the door.
As soon as Guo Zexin entered, he saw Shen Zhiyi still fast asleep. A smug smile appeared on his lips. Just as he was about to do something, he was knocked unconscious from behind.
Shen Zhiyi threw off the covers and sat up.
"Well done."
Nalan Zhao was standing behind the door when Guo Zexin came in and hit him with a stick.
The black wolf also returned from outside, carrying a struggling mouse in its mouth.
The black wolf put the mouse down and quickly pinned it down with its paws as it tried to escape.
"Sister, what do you plan to do with this person?"
Nalan Zhao had already tied the person to the chair with a rope, and was just waiting for Shen Zhiyi to speak.
"Just leave it tied up like that, we can talk about it tomorrow." Shen Zhiyi yawned; she was sleepy.
Nalan Zhao nodded and said, "Then you can go to my room to sleep, sister. I'll watch over him."
"Okay, I'm going now. If you're sleepy, you can ask Ah Jin to watch over him." Shen Zhiyi got off the bed and stretched.
Guo Zexin was really slow; she was almost asleep by the time she got to bed.
Guo Zexin woke up soon after, but by then Nalan Zhao had also fallen asleep, and only Black Wolf was still awake.
Nalan Zhao turned off the light, and as soon as Guo Zexin opened his eyes, he saw two green eyes staring straight at him.
