Chapter 290 Coincidentally, her mother opened the door for her.
You think you're worthy?
Wu Qingfeng's gaze swept over Sun Furen, his eyes filled with disdain. "I am grateful for your kindness, but I am already married! I have enough money to live on and have no interest in scheming."
Sun Furen's expression changed, and he cursed inwardly for being ungrateful.
But then I thought about his status. He was a young master from a powerful family. Which of them didn't have three wives and four concubines? What did it matter if he was already married?
Whoever gets in first is the boss!
Men are just stubborn.
He was relaxed in bed and had completely forgotten about his fiancée.
Sun Furen chuckled and said, "My daughter has thoroughly studied the rules and precepts for women and strictly adheres to the Three Cardinal Guides and Five Constant Virtues."
"Lord Wu is a man of exceptional talent; having a few more women is nothing to my daughter."
Wu Qingfeng: "..."
Wu Qingfeng almost couldn't help but curse. Damn it, where did this shameless thing come from? Can't he understand human language?
Suddenly I realized that Chang'er's way of handling things is quite good; she takes action when she can, and she goes crazy when she needs to.
He clenched his fingers and felt as if his strength had returned.
Wu Qingfeng's eyes lit up, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them, and he beckoned to Sun Furen.
Sun Furen thought he had figured it out, and a smile immediately appeared on his lips. He scurried forward, "That's right, come on, give it to the son-in-law... ah..."
Before he could finish saying "serve the food," he was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the door with a "bang," his head lolling to the side, and he passed out.
"Ah..." Screams immediately erupted from the room.
"Shut up!" Wu Qingfeng said softly. The maids who stayed in the room immediately covered their mouths and shrank to the side in fear, each one as silent as a cicada in winter, not daring to make a sound.
Wu Qingfeng raised his hand and dusted off his shoes. Looking at Sun Furen lying by the door, he thought with disgust, "What a piece of trash. I don't even want to kick him."
He rose from the chaise longue as if nothing had happened and looked at the maids huddled together. "Does anyone know where the people who came with me today are being held?"
The maids hurriedly shook their heads, "No, we don't know, sir, please spare us, please spare us."
Wu Qingfeng looked at the terrified maids and shook his head. "What are you afraid of? I only knocked him unconscious, not killed him. Stay here quietly, and I won't make things difficult for you."
The young maids huddled together, still not daring to look at him.
Seeing that they didn't seem to know anything, Wu Qingfeng didn't waste any more time and quickly jumped out of the window and left.
Lin Chang'er and Bai Shao'an had just entered through the outer wall when they saw a dark figure jump out from the front room.
"Wu Qingfeng?" Lin Chang'er exclaimed softly.
Bai Shaoan quickly covered her mouth, "Shh!" He pulled her behind the artificial hill and whispered, "Chang'er, what are you doing! What a coincidence!"
"This Sun residence is so big, how could we possibly run into Third Brother as soon as we walk in?"
"Wasn't it just a coincidence that her mother opened the door for Keqiao? That guy just now definitely wasn't Third Brother; he might be some notorious thief. We mustn't cause any unnecessary trouble."
Wu Qingfeng seemed to hear someone calling him the instant he landed.
When I listened again, it was quiet in private, and there was no further sound.
"Could it be a hallucination?" Wu Qingfeng murmured. "Or did that bastard add some hallucinogenic drug to the tea?"
He frowned, about to ask someone about the whereabouts of Liu Zi and the others.
My gaze inadvertently swept over the artificial hill, but I caught a glimpse of half an embroidered shoe peeking out from behind it.
Wu Qingfeng's eyes narrowed as he stared at the other end. "Chang'er?"
Lin Chang'er and Bai Shaoan, who were behind the artificial hill, were both taken aback.
That sound...
Lin Chang'er shoved Bai Shaoan's hand away, "I knew it! I'm the chosen one, and coincidentally, my mother is also the chosen one."
He poked his head out and waved in the direction the voice came from, "Here."
When he saw that it was indeed her, Wu Qingfeng was overjoyed and hurried over. But the moment he saw Bai Shaoan, most of his joy vanished.
Bai Shaoan was different. Seeing that Wu Qingfeng was all safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Third brother, what happened? Why didn't you send a message home? We were all worried sick."
Lin Chang'er looked behind him and asked, "Where are Liu Zi and the others? Is Brother Li arriving yet?"
Wu Qingfeng's face darkened. "We were careless and underestimated the enemy. We were outmaneuvered by Sun Furen. Liu Zi and the others should be locked up. I'm on my way to find them."
It can't be entirely blamed on his carelessness. The main reason is that, who would have thought that a wealthy man would be so audacious as to dare to lay a hand on the county magistrate?
Nobody could have predicted that, could they?
Lin Chang'er didn't poke at his sore spot anymore, and simply said, "Then shall we split up and search?"
Wu Qingfeng said, "Shao'an, go set the fire. Chang'er, come with me to find someone."
Lin Chang'er: "Aren't you planning to have a wedding ceremony before you leave? I see that Master Sun has already made the arrangements."
Wu Qingfeng paused, his face darkening further. He grabbed Lin Chang'er's wrist and said, "The man surnamed Sun said that Brother Li Mian has developed a high fever and his life is in danger."
Lin Chang'er was taken aback. Human life was at stake, so she didn't dare to joke anymore.
Bai Shaoan had initially protested by extending his hand, wondering why he wasn't included on the trip with the other three. But upon hearing this, he immediately perked up again.
Wu Qingfeng and Lin Chang'er went out through the moon gate and saw the night patrolmen coming over there.
The two exchanged a glance, found a cover to hide in, and waited for the patrol team to pass by before taking the opportunity to drag the last member of the team into the cover.
Once the patrol team had gone far away, Lin Chang'er drew her sword and patted the servant's face with the blade, saying, "Don't shout. Answer my questions."
The servants, whose mouths were covered and vital points were held by Wu Qingfeng, were already terrified and sweating profusely. When Wu Qingfeng struck them with his cold light, they nodded hastily.
"Do you know where a schoolteacher named Li Mian is being held?"
The servant nodded.
Lin Chang'er gestured for Wu Qingfeng to let go, but Wu Qingfeng moved his hand from the servant's mouth down to his throat, saying, "Dare to scream, and I'll break your neck!"
The servant was so frightened that his legs trembled and he was about to cry, "In, in the dungeon."
Lin Chang'er then asked, "Where are those people you detained this afternoon?"
The servant replied, "They're also in the dungeon."
Where is the dungeon?
"Yes, yes..." The servant seemed to be so frightened that he had a communication disorder, and he raised his hand tremblingly to point the way.
"Lead the way!" Lin Chang'er called out softly.
They just thought that someone with such a small heart dared to come out on night patrol. If this were in their Linshui Village, they would probably be too scared to leave if they saw pirates. How would they then report to the village?
Their business skills are too poor; she definitely won't hire them.
The servant nodded with a mournful face, his legs swaying as he led Lin Chang'er and Wu Qingfeng forward at a ghostly speed, like an old man on his deathbed.
Lin Chang'er felt it was too much trouble, so she gave him psychological counseling, "We are not bad people, you don't need to be so afraid. Just lead the way, and we'll let you go once we've got things done."
"So, it's better to have a short pain than a long one. You should leave quickly to shorten the time you'll suffer mentally."
Servant: "..." Is that how you comfort someone?
He's not a bad person, but a woman's mouth is a lying devil! I'd be a fool to believe you...
