Chapter 209: Strange Question 1

Xiao Ya, why are you always following me today?

In the Hong Residence, Hong Dingfeng turned his head to look at his little sister and asked.

Oh, you noticed it. Actually, a new batch of satin has arrived at Fengxiangs shop today. Its really beautiful.

Why? Father doesnt allow you to buy it? Hong Dingfeng replied with a smile after hearing this.

Hehe, youre the smartest.

There are so many silks in the warehouse, yet you insist on buying them outside. No wonder father doesnt let you buy it.

That one is the latest style. We dont have any of it at home.

Shaking his head helplessly, Hong Dingfeng said, If you want money, go find your second brother. I dont have spare money for you.

Alright then With a long drawl, Hong Yaxuan turned around and left.

This girl is too materialistic Looking at Hong Yaxuan leaving determinedly, Hong Dingfeng couldnt help but roll his eyes. After Hong Dingfeng left, Hong Yaxuan patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief.

Phew I didnt expect to be discovered by Big Brother so quickly. Luckily, Im smart.

After the discussion yesterday, the only quest Jiang Beiran gave Hong Yaxuan was to let her go home and see if there was anything different from before. He didnt want to miss any details.

Hong Yaxuan naturally started from her eldest brother who handled most of the matter in her family. However, after following him for the entire morning, she did not notice anything different from her eldest brother. Even the worry that she had shown earlier had disappeared.

Could it be that the trouble caused by the Liu family has been resolved?

Hong Yaxuan felt that things would not be so simple. She thought hard for a while and decided to observe her second brother first.

At five oclock, according to the agreement, Hong Yaxuan arrived at the pavilion.

Did you find anything? Sitting in the pavilion, Jiang Beiran raised his head and asked Hong Yaxuan.

I I found out that second brother went out to find another woman behind my sister-in-laws back again!

After hearing this, Jiang Beiran let out a long sigh. What else?

This is very serious! My sister-in-law is so virtuous, yet he still

Hong Yaxuan was in the middle of her sentence when she saw Jiang Beirans increasingly fierce gaze. She could only slowly shut her mouth and lower her head.

Im not interested in your family affairs. Lets get down to business.

Oh I followed my two brothers for a day, but I really didnt find anything. They are still the same as usual.

Sigh, it seems that I have overestimated you. After saying that, Jiang Beiran looked at Luo Wenzhou who was standing at the side and said, Go and call Cheng Yi over.

Yes.

Luo Wenzhou responded and walked out of the pavilion.

Not long after, Gu Qinghuan was brought into the gazebo and cupped his hands toward Jiang Beiran as he called out, Big Brother.

Hong Yaxuan had seen this Boss Song a few times at home. She knew that even if her father would greet Boss Song with a smile and treat him as an important guest.

And now the way Boss Song greeted Jiang Beiran was just like how Butler Zhang greeted her father.

Who is this person Hong Yaxuan couldnt help but steal a glance at Jiang Beiran.

After telling Gu Qinghuan the whole story in detail, Jiang Beiran looked at Hong Yaxuan and said, Tomorrow, I will send Cheng Yi to your mansion. What you need to do is to find an empty space and stay there. Do you understand?

An empty space and stay there? What do you mean? Hong Yaxuan asked curiously.

Jiang Beiran didnt answer Hong Yaxuan. He looked at Gu Qinghuan and asked, Do you understand the plan?

I understand. Gu Qinghuan nodded. Ah? Plan, what plan?

Hong Yaxuan was confused. She had been listening to the plan, but she didnt hear any plan at all.

Okay, go. Teach her what to do on the way.

Yes. Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands toward Jiang Beiran and left the pavilion with Hong Yaxuan, who was still in a daze.

After Gu Qinghuan had gone far away, Jiang Beiran looked at Luo Wenzhou and said, Go to the Liu Residence and check if theres anything unusual.

Yes. Luo Wenzhou cupped his hands toward Jiang Beiran and walked out of the pavilion.

Sitting back in front of the stone table, Jiang Beiran picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Placing two black pieces on the Go board, Jiang Beirans eyes turned cold.

Liu family has the backing of royal family, and Hong family was vassal of Sect of Four Directions. I wonder what kind of spark these two forces will ignite.

Following that, Jiang Beiran continuously placed a few black pieces on the Go board.

I was drawn into the center of power struggle when I first came to Lanzhou. Im afraid I have to be more careful if I want to break out of this situation unscathed.

As he spoke, Jiang Beiran picked up another white piece.

Fortunately, I have enough pieces, and I am also very good at playing slow Go.

With a Da sound, Jiang Beiran placed the white piece away from the black pieces.

At noon the next day, Hong Yaxuan, who had just finished her lunch, stood beside a rockery in the courtyard. Normally, no one would come here, which was very much in line with Lin Yus big brothers requirements.

Who exactly is he, and why did he come to Jiyuan Town? Would it be like a sheep entering the tigers den if I asked him for help.

Just as Hong Yaxuan was thinking about random things, she suddenly felt a slap on her back.

Hong Yaxuan instinctively wanted to scream, but when she remembered Boss Songs instructions yesterday, she quickly covered her mouth.

She turned around and saw Boss Song, who was dressed in a long robe, appear in front of her out of thin air.

Boss Boss Song, where did you come in from?

Yesterday, when Hong Yaxuan heard that Big Brother Lin Yu wanted Boss Song to come to their residence, Hong Yaxuan thought that it was a very formal visit. However, after she finished chatting with Boss Song, she realized that he didnt intend to use the main door.

However, although she was mentally prepared, Hong Yaxuan was still a little scared when she saw Boss Song suddenly appear in front of her.
