Hua Wuxin nodded slightly and said, "I am Hua Wuxin."
When Yan Shaoqing heard the name Hua Wuxin, a strange light appeared in his eyes. "So, you are Hua Wuxin. I've heard of your name for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
Hua Wuxin raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Although I am a man of the martial arts world, I rarely use this name in the martial arts world. From what you say, have you heard of me?"
Seeing that everyone was present, Yan Shaoqing did not speak directly, but only said, "It's a long story. If Manager Hua has nothing to do, please come to the garden to chat after dinner."
"See you later."
After dinner, everyone returned to their respective quarters to rest. Hua Wuxin didn't know Yan Shaoqing, but from his conversation at the table, it seemed he knew a lot about her. Since he'd invited her, it wouldn't hurt to meet him.
As soon as Hua Wuxin went out, Li Xinzhai followed him quietly. Sure enough, he caught a little fat boy in the grass near the garden.
Li Xinzhai saw Tang Chen sitting on a small stool, staring at Hua Wuxin stealthily. He wanted to go up and scare her, but just as he was about to do so, he suddenly realized that if he scared her now, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Li Xinzhai deliberately slowed down his pace, making a little noise for Tang Chen to notice. He then slowly walked to her side and whispered, "Why are you sitting here in the middle of the night? There are no mosquitoes to feed you in this season."
Seeing him sticking out like a lump, Tang Chen pulled him down, motioned him to squat carefully and hide, then quietly explained, "Yan Zhou went to the military camp, and Lian Xin also went back to Qinghe County. I couldn't sleep alone, so I just came out for a walk."
Li Xinzhai didn't come out in the middle of the night to follow Hua Wuxin. What happened between Hua Wuxin and Yan Shaoqing had nothing to do with him, and he didn't want to know. "...Since you're like this now, can you change your nature of wanting to join in the fun? Curiosity kills the cat, you know?"
Tang Chen glanced disdainfully at Li Xinzhai, who had also come running to watch the fun, and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, how dare you say that to me? Didn't you also come here in the middle of the night? Obviously, you were here to eavesdrop as well. And you still refuse to admit it. I despise you."
"No, no, I just saw Wang Ruo was acting a little strange, so I followed her all the way here."
Wang Ruo, who had been hiding openly in a tree, saw Li Xinzhai lying so openly that she couldn't stand it anymore and jumped down from the tree, interrupting him, "Me? You didn't come out with Hua Wuxin, kid. It's not nice to lie."
Li Xinzhai subconsciously took a step back. How could Wang Ruo suddenly appear? He thought his kung fu was quite good, but he didn't even notice that there was a living person standing on the tree. "You scared me! Where did you come from?"
After Wang Ruo signaled him to be more careful, she whispered, "What are you talking about? It was obviously my aunt who came here first. Anyway, I thought my aunt was just out for a stroll and then back. Could it be that my aunt is also interested? Come on, we have to find a good place quickly, otherwise it will be no fun if they disperse!"
After Hua Wuxin sat alone in the garden for a while, Yan Shaoqing, the busy man, hurried back from the military camp. After the two met, Yan Shaoqing exchanged a few pleasantries with Hua Wuxin as per the protocol. Just as he was about to take out the gift someone had asked him to bring for him, Hua Wuxin quietly stopped him.
The two of them didn't know whether it was intentional or not, but the voices gradually became smaller. Not only did they talk, but they also talked while walking. It would have been fine if they were walking, but they stopped in the blind spot of the trio's vision in the grass.
No matter how hard Tang Chen tried, she could only see Yan Shaoqing's back. Besides that, she couldn't even make out their body movements clearly. "Can you hear what they're saying?"
Wang Ruo was also confused. Logically speaking, at her current level, she should be able to hear any sound within a five-mile radius as long as she wanted to. "It seems like no one is talking. I can't hear anything. The wind is too loud. I'm disturbed."
Tang Chen frowned and speculated: "Could they be lip reading?"
Wang Ruo waved her hand slightly. How could she not know how powerful Hua Wuxin was? "No, Hua Wuxin doesn't have such a high-level skill."
Li Xinzhai, who had been helping the two gossipy women observe Yan Shaoqing and his partner's every move, suddenly called out to them, "Look, it looks like Yan Shao gave something to Hua Wuxin. Hua Wuxin accepted it. Look at the atmosphere, why is it a little weird?"
It would have been fine if Li Xinzhai hadn't mentioned the atmosphere. But once he did, Tang Chen suddenly realized he seemed to see pink petals swirling between them. Ah, this damn instinct: "Look carefully, can you see what they are 'dealing' about?"
Li Xinzhai narrowed his eyes and said, "It's blocked. I can't see it."
Before the three of them could react, the two people who had been secretly talking in the garden without their knowledge nodded to each other and then dispersed in two opposite directions. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be heading to their respective rooms.
Tang Chen was so excited that he subconsciously slapped his thigh and said, "Oh my god, why did they break up so quickly? There must be some unspeakable secret between them."
"Alas, this trip was in vain," said the threesome, and the short-lived group of grass disbanded on the spot. Tang Chen was really sleepy and wanted to go back to rest. He walked out of the grass, but found that Wang Ruo didn't seem to be going the same way as him: "Why are you going that way? Aren't you going back to sleep?"
Wang Ruo smiled and shook her head, saying mysteriously, "I'm not too sleepy yet. While it's still early, I want to go check that place out. Maybe I can find some information about that artillery."
Tang Chen also asked without any context, "Did you bring your keys?"
"nature."
"Then let's go back and rest first, and you shouldn't stay out too late." As he spoke, Tang Chen dragged Li Xinzhai away.
Li Xinzhai asked, somewhat puzzled, "What kind of charades are you two talking about? Can't you just talk like two normal people?"
Tang Chen said, "No, this is a little secret between us. After all, our treasures are all with Hua Wuxin; I am a little curious now, what on earth does he want these things for."
Li Xinzhai sneered and said, "It's either for money or power, isn't it the same for everyone? Personally, I'm more inclined to the money-oriented one. After all, his black market is a money-sucking place."
Tang Chen didn't think so: "However, based on my observation, this matter must not be that simple. I and...hiss!"
Before Tang Chen could finish her words, a sudden pain in her abdomen was tormenting her body and mind.
