Chapter 296 Involvement
Lu Hong, now that one of her companions was gone, calmly greeted Yu Yao.
Seeing Yu Yao's gaze sweep over the four young men, he laughed and said, "One of them was disobedient and wanted to betray us, so I threw him away."
Yu Yao nodded silently, then turned and called Jiang Yi and Qi Xian to leave.
I'm not curious at all about what happened last night.
After the three walked away, a young man named Xing Lin next to Lu Hong frowned and said, "Godmother, are there really people in this world with such a low thirst for knowledge? We're missing one person, and they didn't even ask a single question."
Lu Hong scoffed, "You really think they don't know what happened last night?"
"They knew? Didn't they keep the door closed?"
“Not opening the door is because they don’t want to get involved in things that don’t concern them, but it doesn’t mean they don’t know what’s going on outside.”
Xing Lin sighed softly, "It seems he's picked the wrong person!"
A mocking glint flashed in Lu Hong's eyes. "What an idiot."
Hearing her say that, Xing Lin and the others exchanged complicated glances. After a few moments, Xing Lin asked, "Godmother, are we still going?"
"I'll stop now and go around in circles a few times first."
"Ok."
......
Jiang Yi, Yu Yao, and Qi Xian walked quite a distance before frowning and saying, "I feel like Lu Hong looks more and more familiar. Where have I seen her before?"
Qi Xian: "Let's ask Second Brother, he knows more."
Jiang Yi sighed and admitted defeat.
He immediately nodded and went to ask Dongfang Jin.
"Second brother, do you remember someone named Lu Hong?"
Dongfang Jin: "You saw her?"
Jiang Yi: "Yes!"
Dongfang Jin: "Wen Chengyang's ex-wife."
Jiang Yi: "...Holy crap? No wonder that name sounded so familiar! Wen Peng'er's mom!"
Dongfang Jin: "Yes! Where did we meet? In Qingshan?"
Jiang Yi: "Yeah, she's got a bunch of godsons around her, building a harem. Last night, one of them even came looking for Xiao Qi, but Lu Hong dragged him back and dismantled him into parts!"
Dongfang Jin: "Lu Hong is a very controlling person and hates betrayal the most, which is normal. According to her, the reason she fell out with Wen Chengyang back then was because he was unfaithful to her."
Qi Xian: "So... is it possible that our meeting with her wasn't an accident?"
Dongfang Jin: "I don't know, but she had a very ugly falling out with the Wen family on the surface. When she left, Wen Peng'er was not even three years old, and there was no contact between them."
Qi Xian: "Understood."
After Yu Yao saw Lu Hong leave with several people using the Sky-Gazing Mirror, she said to Jiang Yi and Qi Xian, "They're gone."
Qi Xian raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Shall we bet on how long it will take them to catch up again?"
Jiang Yi: "I'll bet a day!"
Yu Yao: "...I bet we'll see them when we get back to the capital."
Qi Xian: "Xiao Wu, we've got the same idea! I'll come up with another one! Half a day!"
Jiang Yi: "What are we betting on!"
The loser has to cook for three days!
Jiang Yi quickly shook her head and refused: "That won't do, I cook every day! Winning or losing means nothing to me!"
Yu Yao: "Yes, yes, yes!"
That won't do! She hates cooking the most!
Qi Xian smiled at Jiang Yi and said, "If you win, then you're amazing!"
Jiang Yi: "Okay!"
No boy can resist the words "You're amazing!"
No!
Yu Yao: "......"
If you say that, then I'll have to cheat!!!
......
In order to avoid cooking, Yu Yao started cheating using the Sky-Gazing Mirror.
Every time Lu Hong and her men tried to catch up with them, Yu Yao would leave first with Qi Xian and Jiang Yi.
I completely missed every chance to meet Lu Hong.
Yu Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving Qingshan City three days later.
Thank goodness, I don't have to cook!
(￣▽￣)~*
Back in Kyoto, Yu Yao and the others indeed heard Lu Hong's name.
But what was unexpected was that when Lu Hong's name was heard again, it was associated with Lin Fengmu.
......
When Yu Yao and the others returned to the base.
The news that Lin Fengmu killed Lu Hong's four godsons has spread like wildfire.
Lu Hong not only did not show any dissatisfaction, but also openly expressed her affection for Lin Fengmu.
Rumors circulated that Lin Fengmu killed Lu Hong because he was jealous of her godsons and didn't want to compete with them for Lu Hong's favor.
When Yu Yao heard the rumor, she let out a soft "Ah?"
Qi Xian shook his head in disbelief, "How could that be? Lu Hong is more than twenty years older than Lin Fengmu, right? How could someone as arrogant as him possibly be interested in Lu Hong?"
Jiang Yi shrugged. "I don't know. That's what everyone's saying. I heard Lu Hong has moved into Lin Fengmu's house."
Yu Yao had no intention of prying into other people's privacy, but her intuition told her that there was more to the story.
So she checked the map and found that Lu Hong was indeed at Lin Fengmu's house.
After some hesitation, I decided to use the Sky-Gazing Mirror to check it out.
