Everyone was whispering to each other, but I seemed not to hear. Mo Youcan remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking. An Tingyu also pretended not to hear and just kept her eyes on the street.
Suddenly, a red jade hairpin caught An Tingyu's attention, but when she reached out her hand, a pair of big hands were one step faster than her.
"Huh? Isn't this Miss An?" The owner of the large hands asked in surprise. "I didn't expect we'd meet again so soon. How's Mr. An? I owed him a favor, and I haven't repaid it yet!"
When she looked up, An Tingyu realized that this person was actually Lei Ming, whom she had met once before.
Seeing Lei Ming, An Tingyu's beautiful eyes flashed with a gleam. Previously, she had thought Lei Ming was just a friend of Jing Aotian. After all, Lei Ming was the imperial merchant of Yuyan Country. But she had never expected that Lei Ming was actually one of the four hall masters of the Nether Palace. Seeing him now was probably no coincidence, especially since his words were very meaningful, clearly telling her that the relationship between them was one of "favor". However, she derived another message...
Jing Aotian, here he comes!
Because the only person related to her and Lei Ming is Jing Aotian.
"Mr. Lei, you're welcome. Grandpa is doing well. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lei." An Tingyu leaned forward, treating her grandfather's friend with the attitude of neither humble nor arrogant, and polite in a distant manner.
"Miss An, are you here to see Prince Can again for something?" Lei Ming said, glancing at Mo Youcan and bowing to him. Mo Youcan simply nodded indifferently without saying anything, but his sharp eyes were fixed on An Tingyu, as if he were thinking about something.
"Well..." An Tingyu smiled, "It's okay to say I have something to do, but it's also okay. I just suddenly want to stay in the Canwang Mansion for a while and play around. If I get bored, I'll go back."
"Do you need me to introduce some interesting places?" Lei Ming asked again.
An Tingyu raised her lips and whispered lazily, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xie. Isn't this the disabled prince here? With him here, the entire Yuyan Kingdom won't let me leave?"
"That's true. Since Miss An has already made arrangements, I won't invite you. If there's an opportunity in the future, I'll host you separately."
"Mr. Lei, you're welcome!"
"I have something else to do, so I won't bother you any more. Goodbye, both of you!" Lei Ming bowed to them, and only left after they nodded.
At the Lei Mansion, Lei Ming had just returned from the street when he saw several handsome men sitting in the hall.
"How is it?" Jing Aotian asked when he saw him come back.
Lei Ming did not answer, but glanced at Feng Beijian.
Following his gaze, Jing Aotian's deep pupils darkened, but he still said: "Speak!"
Feng Beijian, an uninvited person. That day, when they challenged the enemy, Feng Beijian discovered their whereabouts, so they followed them. They wanted to drive him away, but the military camp was not safe now, and the traitors had not been eliminated, so they could not be careless. They were even more worried that Feng Beijian would quarrel with them, and then their every move would be seen by the enemy.
And the most important point is that Feng Beijian will not hurt An Tingyu. This time he let him follow in order to bring An Tingyu back.
Hearing this, Lei Ming repeated what he had said to An Tingyu. After listening, Jing Aotian rested his chin on his hand as if thinking about something, and murmured softly, "Do you suddenly want to stay at the Canwang Mansion for a while?"
"It seems that Yu'er has other plans!" Feng Beijian seemed to have heard the hidden meaning in An Tingyu's words.
Liu Yunsheng rolled his eyes, feeling helpless. "This Miss An, we are busy here taking care of her affairs, and she is fine, staying for a while."
"What should we do now? Nineteenth Concubine is one of the bosses of our company. If she doesn't go back, we will be in trouble." This was Feng Yun's voice. When there were outsiders around, he was An Tingyu's partner, so at this moment, whether it was him, Lei Ming, Yu Qing, or even Jing Aotian, they were all playing another role.
"What else can we do? Once that woman makes up her mind, there's no way to pull her back." Liu Yunsheng curled his lips and suddenly felt that he had made a wasted trip. He was worried that something might happen to her in Yuyan Country, but he didn't expect that she would have the chance to go shopping. She was considered a genius for being such a captive.
"Lei Ming, thank you!" Jing Aotian suddenly said.
A smile flashed across Lei Ming's deep eyes, and he replied calmly, "Prince Jing, you are too polite. We are friends. When you need help, I can't just stand by and watch."
"Your Highness!" A clear voice came, and a slender figure suddenly appeared. When she finished speaking, she had already kneeled respectfully in front of Jing Aotian. "Everything is just as Your Highness expected. That merchant is not a real businessman. After leaving the border, he just wandered around a few towns before returning to Yuyan Kingdom and entering the Canwang Palace."
Jing Aotian snorted coldly, "Mo Youcan has really been playing tricks on me. He made me go through so much trouble just for a piece of paper."
"But what exactly was he trying to do?" Liu Yunsheng expressed confusion. "It's clearly a simple matter. If he didn't want to tell us, he wouldn't have let that fake vendor tell us the way. But he said he wanted to tell us, but he used a roundabout method, as if he didn't want others to know it was him who arranged it."
"Maybe this is exactly what the young lady wants to know." At this time, Dang Yan, who had been silent, said something.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent. An Tingyu was a woman who did not play by the rules. It was always difficult to guess what she was thinking. What she said might be a reason, but it might not be. It was more likely that she was just playing around.
