Suddenly, a person appeared in Long's Rice Shop. He was not the person the shopkeeper had imagined. He was wearing a black cloak, and his face could not be seen. Only his voice could be heard clearly.
The shopkeeper was already restless, praying in his heart, feeling both hopeful and nervous. Before he knew it, a mysterious person appeared in the shop, which gave him quite a fright!
Who is this person? They're not making a sound. Are they trying to scare him to death?
He was so frightened that he instinctively clutched his chest and it took him a while to calm down.
He could see the person in front of him clearly, but he wasn't the one he wanted to see!
The voice doesn't sound like what I remember!
What exactly went wrong?
My heart suddenly turned cold, and I felt a chill instantly!
He sighed inwardly, realizing this was a bad situation and he was afraid he wouldn't be able to explain himself.
The eldest son is waiting for his good news!
I guess she's just as excited as he is!
If only I knew...
Thinking about what would happen next, he felt that life was so bitter, and he really wanted to cry!
He knew better than anyone how much the eldest young master longed to see the young lady; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was obsessed with her!
If it turns out that it isn't true, I don't know if the eldest son can withstand the blow!
well!
Whether we can afford it or not, there's nothing we can do!
If we really can't find it, we have to get up again and keep searching!
However, things won't be easy for anyone from now on!
well!
The eldest son is afraid. If we let him do it himself, isn't he afraid too?
He was even more afraid!
But there was no other way; when the master gave an order, there was no room for complaint. I had to grit my teeth and do it!
Su Nanxi had no idea that the shopkeeper could have put on a TV series in just a short while!
She observed them discreetly for a while, but didn't find Xiao Han and Yan Feng. She guessed they were being hidden.
"I'm already here, shouldn't I at least be allowed to see myself? You said in your letter that as long as I came in person, you would let me take you away unconditionally. You wouldn't go back on your word, would you?"
Su Nanxi's voice did change, and that was intentional on her part.
She wasn't sure if the people behind her were from the Long family or the Su family, so she couldn't reveal her identity first, or she would be at a disadvantage!
If you want to test each other, then test each other!
It's alright, she doesn't have much to do anyway, she's pretty much free!
Let's see who can't hold out any longer!
The shopkeeper didn't dare to be careless, fearing that the other party might be the person he was looking for, and he couldn't afford to offend them first, so he maintained his usual standard business smile!
Yes, very friendly and easy to talk to!
"Don't be anxious, young lady! We didn't mistreat them; we just invited them to stay for a while! Since you're here, we'll keep our promise and take them back safely! But since you're already here, it's fate. Why don't we have some tea and chat?"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he gestured for Su Nanxi to stay.
How could Su Nanxi not see through it? Staying behind would naturally give them more opportunities to test the waters. They wanted to see if the person under the cloak was the one they were looking for.
Don't think others don't know what you're thinking!
However, knowing is one thing, doing is another!
Can you just turn around and run away before you've even seen the person or taken them with you?
The answer is obvious!
That old man is cunning and wicked; he's detaining her people and won't let them leave!
They even talked about drinking tea and chatting. Are they that close?
What should we talk about?
hehe!
No need to ask, they'll definitely find out who the jade pendant's owner is, and the beautiful woman who bought the rice back then!
"Sure! But first, I need to see my people and make sure they're safe before I can have tea, right?"
Su Nanxi pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice that sounded somewhat eerie.
Mo Qinghe, hiding in the shadows, was getting anxious. He wanted to follow, but his wife wouldn't allow it. She allowed him to come along, but not to appear together. He didn't dare to do anything reckless, because if he ruined his wife's important plans, it would be terrible!
But seeing his wife about to be in danger, he couldn't contain himself and was furious!
This is someone else's territory. My wife is too bold. She actually trusted someone else and went there alone!
But what his wife said wasn't wrong. If she was in danger, at least he was still outside and could try his best to save her. If they were both in danger, then they would probably be doomed!
Let's wait and see!
My wife is sensible and shouldn't act impulsively or recklessly!
At this point, there was nothing I could do but completely trust my wife!
Su Nanxi guessed that Mo Qinghe would be very anxious, so she couldn't worry about too much. She would just take it one step at a time, since she was prepared anyway!
When Yan Feng and Xiao Han came out, they were completely unharmed, except that their hands and feet were tied and their mouths were gagged!
He seems to be in good spirits, so he probably wasn't tortured!
Seeing that Su Nanxi remained silent, the shopkeeper assumed she was angry and quickly explained, "These two lads are incredibly skilled. We had no choice but to tie them up. If we didn't, this place would be in complete chaos!"
Su Nanxi naturally knew this, and after a while, she said, "I won't drink the tea. What do you want to know? I can tell you!"
The shopkeeper paused for a moment, but he quickly recovered. Changing his mind was a common thing. It was fine. He didn't really want to drink. He was just being polite.
Who's in the mood for tea anymore!
Those who know, know!
He was pondering how to answer when, unexpectedly, Su Nanxi changed her mind again!
“You have no authority. You call out your backer, and I'll only talk to him! I know what you want to know and who you're looking for, and I can give you a definite answer!”
The shopkeeper immediately became alert and quickly considered the feasibility in his mind.
In the end, he still couldn't make up his mind; he really couldn't make a decision!
However, he made one last effort, or rather, a final attempt: "Girl, it's the same if you tell me! I'll relay it completely! I know you're very smart, and you should also know that I have my own difficulties! Just tell me!"
Su Nanxi refused to back down and insisted on seeing the person behind the scenes. "So it seems you don't really want to know, then forget it! You don't need to look for your young lady anymore!"
Upon hearing the words "Young Miss," the shopkeeper's blood boiled, and he became even more certain that the person in front of him had information about the Young Miss and might even be related to her!
So he asked Su Nanxi to wait a moment while he went to ask for instructions. He couldn't make the specific decision himself.
Su Nanxi didn't make things difficult for him and agreed.
"Did that person really say that? Does she really know Xixi's whereabouts?!"
"Young Master! Don't get agitated! We should remain calm and collected now so we don't get led by the nose! We must always be wary! Who knows if this is a trap deliberately set by someone?"
"Hmm! You're right! I got too excited! Let me calm down! We'll go out together in a bit!"
"Young Master, put on this half-mask!"
Su Nanxi was getting a little impatient when the people finally arrived!
Seeing the person approaching gracefully, she blurted out, "Brother!"
