Chapter 148 Ancestral Hall

Compared with the Qin family's house, the Zhou family's courtyard house is a bit old-fashioned in style, but it is a formal house with carved beams and painted rafters, eight entrances and eight exits, and winding corridors carved with ancient auspicious patterns. There are flowers and trees all the way, and even the central rafters on the top are made of golden nanmu, which is far more valuable than the rare trees in the Qin family's backyard.

Zhou Changyi and Jiang Wu walked along the corridor one after the other. The servants who passed by thought Jiang Wu was her friend, and they all nodded and greeted her respectfully, revealing a sense of hierarchy that was different from that of the Qin family.

Jiang Wuye didn't feel guilty at all, but Zhou Changyi turned his head and looked at this scene with some surprise in his heart.

She still remembered that she had brought classmates and friends back here a few years ago. Those people were also very wealthy, but they still couldn't help but exclaim when they entered this big house. And when the servants at home nodded and saluted to her one by one, as a modern person, she felt a little embarrassed, and some even refused.

But Jiang Wuji was extremely calm, so calm that he seemed not to notice those people who were performing the ceremony at all, as if these things were as common to him as breathing.

Her curiosity about him grew stronger and stronger, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at him, "Do you know who I am?"

“…”

"You broke into the Zhou family illegally and held me hostage. If the Zhou family finds out, you're done for."

“…”

"Why are you looking for me...what are you looking for Zhou Yannan for? Do you know him?"

“…”

She asked several questions but got no answer. No matter how handsome or tall the other person was, she lost her patience and turned around to quicken her pace to run away. However, when she turned around, she found that she had turned her head and walked the wrong way. She was about to hit the corner of the corridor when suddenly a hand grabbed the back of her clothes and pulled her back. She staggered and fell backwards, leaning on a steady chest.

She looked up subconsciously and saw Jiang Wu's clearly defined jaw. Her figure was reflected in his drooping phoenix-shaped eyes. He was calm and composed, with a calm and strong demeanor that made people's heart move.

Zhou Changyi's face suddenly turned red and his heart beat faster. He stared at the face so close to him for a while, unable to recover his senses, until he was pushed away by the other party.

"Watch the road." Jiang Wu reminded lightly, and in his heart he began to wonder whether he should find a smarter guide. This woman didn't look very smart.

Zhou Changyi's heart beat faster. He lowered his head and said shyly, "Thank you."

Looks even less smart.

Jiang Wu stared at the top of her head for a moment, then suddenly turned around and walked back. Forget it, let's find another guide. The servant who just brought tea looked good.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Changyi hurriedly grabbed his arm and asked, "Didn't you want me to help you find someone?"

Jiang Wu avoided her and continued to walk back, "No need."

Zhou Changyi felt warm in his heart and took a few steps forward to stop him. "It's okay. I didn't know you were a bad person. I was careless just now. I wasn't scared by you."

Jiang Wu:?

It was your own carelessness.

He looked at the woman in front of him who was looking up at him with her big eyes, and wondered if this woman was planning to frame him for hurting someone after meeting Zhou Yannan?

He was not afraid of being framed, but he was afraid that Zhou Yannan would not help him, so he emphasized again, "I didn't hurt you."

Zhou Changyi felt even more nervous when he looked at her. He lowered his head and whispered, "I know."

"Then lead the way."

"Can you answer a question for me first?"

"say."

"What's your name?"

"Jiang Wu."

Jiang Wu, Zhou Changyi murmured in her heart, and suddenly remembered that the housekeeper had mentioned this name just now, so the other party was indeed looking for Zhou Yannan. No wonder his temperament was so similar to her third uncle.

She raised her head and mustered up her courage to ask again, "Can you promise me one more thing?"

Jiang Wu narrowed his eyes. This woman was indeed threatening him.

"no."

“…”

After hearing his ruthless rejection, Zhou Changyi's hand, which was about to pick up the phone to add WeChat, suddenly froze in place.

Jiang Wu turned around and left after he finished speaking. At worst he could use his spiritual power to search one place after another. He didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to find the person.

After turning the corner of the corridor, powerful spiritual power instantly spread out in all directions, covering most of the house in the blink of an eye. Zhou Changyi, who was about to catch up to stop him, suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, as if he was pressed by a huge rock. He felt very uncomfortable and even his face began to turn pale.

She subconsciously reached out to the person in front of her for help, but the other person did not stop. Just when she was about to despair, she suddenly saw the person in front of her pause.

Her heart warmed, and she knew that this person, although seemingly indifferent, was actually very kind.

The next second she fainted, and naturally she did not see Qi Hang being blocked by Jiang Wu across the corridor.

"Jiang Wu?! How did you get in?"

Qi Hang looked at him with anger. He suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart and was about to go to the Zhou family's family doctor. However, he had only taken a few steps when he saw Jiang Wuda staggering behind him, which scared him.

Jiang Wu's eyes lit up. He said it was impossible not to find a guide. Now it was delivered to his door.

He stepped forward and said, "I'm here to look for—"

When he moved, Qi Hang immediately caught a glimpse of Zhou Changyi who had fainted on the ground behind him. The girl had her eyes closed and her hands stretched forward, looking completely unwilling to die.

Qi Hang's face turned pale, and he turned and ran, shouting as he ran, "Someone come! Security! Someone come quickly! Someone broke in and killed someone!"

Jiang Wu: “…”

He looked at the man who was running away in panic in front of him, then turned back to look at the unconscious woman behind him, and began to doubt the feng shui of the entire Zhou family.

After all, the Zhou family is the Zhou family. The security department reacted quickly. The alarm sounded soon after, and dozens of security guards arrived in patrol cars and surrounded Jiang Wu Tuan.

Jiang Wu raised his eyebrows. He thought everyone here used horse-drawn carriages.

At the same time, Zhou Yannan, who was originally sleeping on the bed, immediately opened his eyes after feeling the powerful spiritual power at that moment, and stood up and walked out.

On the other side, Zhou Gaozhen and his son, who were arguing in the room, also heard the alarm outside. After learning that someone had illegally broken into Zhou's house and injured Zhou Changyi, Zhou Gaozhen's face turned cold and he immediately said that he would arrest the person and send him to the police station. If Zhou Changyi was seriously injured, that person must not be allowed to get out alive.

Zhou Changming, who was listening nearby, frowned and turned to go to the front yard.

In the front yard, Jiang Wu was surrounded by security guards and was about to explain, but suddenly his soul, which was spreading out, touched a familiar breath. He turned his head sharply and looked towards the room at the back of the house.

"What are you standing there for? Catch him now!"

Qi Hang shouted to the security guards to arrest the man, feeling very happy. He didn't expect such a good thing to happen when he returned to Zhou's house. If Jiang Wu was arrested and the news got out, he would definitely not be able to continue in the entertainment industry. Then He Wenhua would not be able to stay even if he wanted to, and he would not be able to hook up with Bai Yuan.

Jiang Wu's mind was attracted by the aura of the soul not far away. He had no time to deal with these people, so he didn't hide anymore and just leaned forward and slapped the crowd with his palm.

The security guards only felt an invisible force rushing towards them, like an invisible air wall, knocking them away. Before they could get up, they saw Jiang Wu turn around and jump, and with one somersault he landed on the three-meter-high roof of the corridor and disappeared in a short while.

Qi Hang watched him "fly" to the roof, he was completely dumbfounded. However, the security captain was more panicked than him, because the direction where the man disappeared was the Zhou family's ancestral hall!
