Chapter 92 Looking for the Silver Hairpin
There's really nothing to say about this. Lu Jingheng just has the ability to make people speechless.
Bai Yangfan picked up the book on the table and continued to recite it. He was free anyway. Whether it was to kill time or to cover up that he was too lazy to pay attention to the bastard, it was better than the two of them sitting there with nothing to do and staring at each other.
Seeing that she didn't want to pay attention to him, Lu Jingheng sat quietly by her side for a while, then stood up and said, "I'm going to sleep. Stay alert at night. If there's anything unusual, call me. I'll be in the back room. Similarly, if there's anything over there, I'll call you too. Be careful. I'll be over first."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Bai Yangfan said calmly: "No matter what happens, please protect Qihang. He is the only child of the Bai family."
Pausing for a moment, Lu Jingheng looked back at the woman who was dressed calmly and distantly, hummed, and went back to Qihang's room.
Bai Yangfan waited until the man had gone far away, then stood up, closed the door, and bolted it. She wasn't sure if Mule would come that night, so she sat down and tried to think carefully about what Mule would do to her if he did.
Unfortunately, she hadn't paid much attention to Mule in her previous life, and wasn't very familiar with the methods he often used. But if he was looking for something at the Bai family, he would definitely knock everyone in the house unconscious so he could search freely!
If that was the case, Bai Yangfan stood up, opened the door, went to the kitchen to wet the towel he used to wash his face, and placed it by the bed within reach.
Afraid of being discovered by the mule, he finally threw it back into the space.
After making preparations, Bai Yangfan blew out the kerosene lamp and lay down on the bed to rest. She usually didn't go to bed so early, but since the mule was coming, she had better go to bed early to give him a suitable opportunity.
She also wanted to find out what Mule wanted to do with her grandmother.
As she was thinking, she heard light footsteps approaching her house in the distance.
Because she grew up in the jungle, her senses are more sensitive than those of ordinary people, so even if she changed her body, it would not have much impact.
The closer the footsteps got, the lighter they were. If she was asleep, she wouldn't have noticed them at all, but she wasn't asleep. She was just lying in bed pretending to be asleep.
He walked to the door, but instead of entering, he blew a puff of smoke into the room. Bai Yangfan immediately smelled it and realized it was a knockout drug. It wasn't available in China at the moment, but anyone with connections could buy it abroad.
Bai Yangfan quietly took out a wet towel to cover his mouth and nose, and lay there quietly.
A minute later, Mule pried open the door and slipped in, took out a flashlight and began searching around. Bai Yangfan didn't know what he was looking for and remained soundly asleep.
It looks like he was knocked out by a knockout drug.
After searching through all the drawers and cabinets in the house but finding nothing, the mule became very angry and cursed softly in the language of the Elephant Country.
"Damn Bai Feng, why did you die? Why did you die right after I found out where you were? If I can't find that silver hairpin, I'll dig your body out of the ground. Did you really take that thing into the grave? If so, you're really stupid."
He cursed and searched at the same time, not even sparing the head and foot of the bed where Bai Yangfan was sleeping.
Bai Yangfan had been pretending to be asleep, not planning to attack Mule at this moment, fearing he might have a gun and that she would be unable to defend herself with her bare hands. Furthermore, Mule was a young and strong man, so in a one-on-one fight, she might not be able to gain the upper hand.
Another point is, is the silver hairpin that Mule is looking for the same one he found in his grandmother's shoes? It's a pity that he threw that hairpin into the space, otherwise it wouldn't be impossible to take it out and test him.
After searching around for a while, the mule found nothing, so he stood up and went to the room where Lu Jingheng and Qihang slept. Bai Yangfan turned his head slightly and looked at his back, surprised.
A silver hairpin? Mule was looking for a silver hairpin. He took the silver hairpin out of the space and examined it carefully, but found nothing special about it.
Isn’t the only special thing the turquoise inlaid on it?
There is space inside the turquoise, and that should be the value of this silver hairpin.
Now that he knew what the mule was looking for, Bai Yangfan formed an idea in his mind. He would let him go home disappointed tonight, and when he came again, he would definitely let him get what he wanted.
Mule found the room where Lu Jingheng was and released the knockout drug, trying to make the people in the room unconscious.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he made a move, Lu Jingheng pretended to go to the bathroom and came face to face with him.
"There's a thief." Lu Jingheng shouted and punched the mule in the chest.
The mule realized that his whereabouts were exposed, and immediately separated himself from Lu Jingheng's attack and ran out the door.
That speed is really faster than a rabbit.
Lu Jingheng didn't chase her. It wouldn't be easy to chase her at night. He first wanted to check on Bai Yangfan to see if she was okay. Strange! How come this woman didn't make any noise?
Could it be that she was really drugged? That shouldn't be the case! She's so smart, how could she be tricked by a drug?
"Yangfan! How are you?" After entering the room, Lu Jingheng lit the kerosene lamp familiarly and saw Bai Yangfan sitting on the bed with his clothes on.
His eyes were empty and lifeless, and I didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Lu Jingheng felt relieved. He thought she had really fallen into that man's trap, but it turned out not to be the case. She just looked a little scared.
Waving his hand in front of her eyes, Lu Jingheng squatted beside the bed: "Yang Fan! Yang Fan! Hi! Hi! Come back to your senses, come back to your senses, that person has left, there is no point in being dazed."
He looked up at Lu Jingheng indifferently and said indifferently: "I know what Mule is looking for."
Hearing this, Lu Jingheng's eyes lit up several degrees, and his tone was filled with indescribable joy: "Really? You know what he's looking for? Tell me, what is it?"
Slowly extending his hand, Bai Yangfan found a broken silver hairpin in his palm. It had probably been unused for a long time, and the hairpin had turned black. The part that had been inserted into the bun was gone, leaving only half of it and the end.
There should be something inlaid on the head, there is a blank space on top and a support underneath.
Picking up the silver hairpin and examining it carefully, Lu Jingheng frowned deeply. "You said he was looking for this thing? It doesn't look like a valuable thing. What is he looking for it for? Did he tell you about it?"
"No, he said it when he was talking to himself. I can understand what he said. Have you forgotten?" Bai Yangfan's expression was very calm. He didn't look like someone who had just had a close contact with a thief.
Lu Jingheng: “…”
"I know that. Did he say anything else?"
