Qingyu, who had caught a glimpse of it by chance, also came to Xue Ran's side. His face was strangely red. "Master, I also think it's better not to take this out."
The Tang Clan disciple was already impatient. "What kind of token is it? If you don't have one, don't stand here and obstruct my guard duty."
Wow, standing guard! That young man has a strong sense of responsibility.
Feng Guang suddenly pointed behind the Tang Clan disciple and shouted, "Who goes there!?"
"Who?" The Tang Clan disciple turned around but saw no one. He turned back and saw the girl's bright, smiling eyes.
He said smugly, "With your level of alertness, I could have knocked you out the moment you turned around. What good is a strong sense of responsibility if you're not smart enough? You'll still get tricked."
“If all members of the Tang Clan are this reckless, then it’s no wonder that Young Master Tang was poisoned,” Qingyu rarely agreed with her.
"You!" The poor Tang Clan disciple's face turned ashen; whether his other masked side was pale was unknown. "Did you come here on purpose to cause trouble?"
"What's wrong?" a voice suddenly asked.
"Master Shan!" Upon seeing the newcomer, the Tang Clan disciple looked as if he had seen a savior. "This man claims to be Xue Ran and says he has the old lady's keepsake, but they won't produce it. This group of people is clearly here to cause trouble!"
Dan Ya was a young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He was handsome and had an imposing presence. He walked over and examined Xue Ran and the other two one by one. Before he had solid evidence that they were there to cause trouble, he was still able to speak in a friendly manner. "The three of you said you have a token. May I ask what it is?"
Xue Ran looked at the scenery.
Fengguang nudged Qingyu with his elbow, "Go and tell her."
“The things are with you, you go and talk to them.” Qingyu stood on the other side of Xue Ran.
Xue Ran said, "Feng Guang, stop fooling around."
The first time he called her name, his tone was full of helplessness. Feng Guang's face darkened. She was doing this for his own good, but he thought she was just throwing a tantrum.
"Alright, isn't that all you wanted to see the token? After you see it, don't come looking for me no matter what happens." After saying that, Feng Guang opened the package in her hand. Inside was a large red cloth embroidered with noble peonies, and in the corner was Old Madam Tang's maiden name. Taking advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned, she chuckled and said, "Old Madam Tang's undergarment. This should also be considered a token."
A moment of silence.
A moment later, Xue Ran, Feng Guang, and Qing Yu finally entered the Tang Clan, but they were escorted in by a group of people because they were accused of offending Boss Tang.
Feng Guang walked beside Xue Ran and said, "Look, it's all your fault. I told you not to take it out. Now look what's happened. We don't even know what will happen to us."
"Miss Xia, rest assured." Xue Ran's gentle and refined face remained calm. "I will not cause you any trouble."
Feng Guang was deeply moved. "I believe the divine doctor won't let anything happen to me. This is equivalent to saving my life. I have no way to repay this kindness but to offer myself..."
"Master Shan." A middle-aged man suddenly appeared. "What are you doing with so many people?"
His sudden appearance interrupted Feng Guang's words. Qing Yu gave a lukewarm chuckle, and Feng Guang immediately glared at her.
"Elder Zhaoyi," Shanya said, clasping his hands in greeting, "These people deliberately caused trouble at the Tang Clan's gate, damaging the old lady's reputation. I was just about to take them to see the old lady so she could decide how to deal with them."
Tang Zhaoyi glanced at it and said, "Why bother the old lady with such a trivial matter? No one can violate the prestige of the Tang family. Just kill him."
Feng Guang unconsciously moved closer to Xue Ran's back.
"Elder, this is a matter of life and death. It would be better to ask Old Madam Tang."
"What do you mean by 'appropriate' or 'inappropriate'? I think you just don't respect me. Shan Ya, don't forget, even if you can become the head of the hall, you will still be an outsider because you don't have the surname Tang."
Dan Ya remained calm. "He should do his job in his position. Although Dan Ya is not surnamed Tang, he is still loyal to the Tang Clan."
"Hmph, you may fool others, but you can't fool me. This time, Jiuge's poisoning might be your doing!"
"Elder, you should not speak recklessly without evidence."
Dan Ya and Tang Zhaoyi were exchanging words, creating a tense atmosphere. The other Tang Clan disciples all kept their heads down, none daring to interrupt.
