Liu Lao Er glanced at the ten thousand taels of gold notes in her hand and replied, "That's really not the case. The eldest brother gave all those valuables to the village. He spent what he earned himself."
"He earned it himself? What does he do to earn so much?"
"You can ask the eldest brother about this, sister-in-law."
"It's definitely not a legitimate business."
"That is indeed unusual."
"..."
"Second brother, come in." Fu Yunchen's voice suddenly rang out.
Liu Lao Er shuddered in fear and gave Mu Run a knowing look—he was doomed!
Mu Run raised her hand, making a heart shape with her thumb and forefinger. "Good luck."
Just then, the carriage curtain was lifted, and Fu Yunchen saw this scene.
Liu Lao Er ignored Mu Runbi's gesture and entered the carriage.
Fu Yunchen looked at her fingers, which were forming a heart shape, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
But Liu Lao Er noticed the change in Fu Yunchen's eyes, and his face turned pale. He knelt down on the carriage floor with a 'thud', saying, "Boss, I was wrong."
"Where did you go wrong?" Fu Yunchen withdrew his gaze and glanced at him indifferently.
"Let your sister-in-law get hurt."
"...Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Thank you, boss." Really? Liu Lao Er felt even more uneasy.
"Go to the Kingdom of Wu." Fu Yunchen handed the strip of cloth to Liu Lao Er.
Liu Lao Er unfolded the cloth strip and looked at the words on it: "Chen Chao, a family of tea connoisseurs in Changyi City".
"This family of tea merchants seems to sell tea?"
"Tea merchants, weapons merchants."
"That's awesome! What does the boss want to do?"
“He is the second person.” Fu Yunchen said this with a very calm expression.
Liu Lao Er, however, sensed an extremely dark aura emanating from him, which was gradually engulfing him.
"Hey! I'm not very good at driving a carriage. Have you finished talking?"
Suddenly, Mu Run lifted the carriage curtain, and a cat-face mask appeared in their sight.
Liu Lao Er was stunned for a moment, and then he was surprised to find that the dark aura on Fu Yunchen's body had disappeared!
"If you can't drive, learn to drive. This time, you'll have to walk back to Chongyang Mountain by yourself." Fu Yunchen looked straight at her, as if he could see through her mask and into her heart.
Mu Run turned her head and pulled the curtain down again. "Go back by yourself then. Wait a minute~"
Mu Run lifted the curtain again and said to Fu Yunchen, "Aren't you afraid I'll run away?"
"If you dare to run, I'll burn down all the tea trees on the mountain first!"
"You! You're ruthless!"
"Ha, it's because you're too easy for people to read your mind."
"You're such a disgusting person."
Mu Run's interruption brought Fu Yunchen back to normal, and he discussed the next steps with Liu Lao Er.
Mu Run held the whip, concentrating intently on driving the carriage.
She began to lose control of the horse's rhythm, and the carriage swayed and bounced. Inside, one was terrified, desperate to rush out and grab the whip; the other remained as steady as a mountain, unmoved by the carriage's swaying.
Gradually, Mu Run mastered the knack, and the car became stable.
"Boom!" Dark clouds spread and covered the sky, and a thunderstorm seemed imminent.
Mu Run stopped the carriage, then went around to the back of the carriage, opened the trunk, and took out a raincoat and a straw hat.
Just as she was rummaging through her suitcase, Liu Lao Er emerged from the carriage, jumped off silently, entered a narrow alley, and disappeared without a trace.
Mu Run put on his raincoat and straw hat and continued driving forward.
