Chapter 43 Betrayal After hearing the noise outside, Shi Chun got up immediately. He was about to stroll to Bian Weikang's side. When he passed under the corridor of the small courtyard, he suddenly heard a "chi chi" sound coming from someone's mouth in a room. Turning his head, he saw a familiar face behind a half-open window. It was none other than Cen Futong. Shi Chun looked around quickly, pretending to take a walk, and inadvertently approached the window, mumbling, "Why do you live here?" "I moved in last night. I've prepared everything here." "Just follow the original plan." "Okay, I was afraid you were unsure, so I came here to give you a definite answer." "Brother Cen is indeed steady and a man who can accomplish great things." Shi Chun praised him verbally but cursed him in his heart for being crazy for having such a big goal. Then he left this place, took a roundabout way, and went straight to the door of Bian Weikang's room and knocked. The people in the house had already gotten up, and the door opened as soon as I knocked. The two parties met and agreed on a departure time. After that, they prepared themselves, and Shi Chun and the other two also took the time to experience the breakfast here. Time is too tight and there are still many things I haven’t had time to experience. I can only focus on the big things and leave the rest for later.
When they left Wuyou Pavilion, the group of four looked unchanged except for Lan'er who wore a cloak to cover her face. The couple didn't want to see any more people, so Shi Chun and the others had no choice but to follow their advice. Instead of going through the bustling area at the foot of the mountain, they went directly to the cliff above Wuyou Pavilion and then escaped into the vast primitive mountain forest. As they flew, the difference in their cultivation levels became apparent. Among the four, only Bian Weikang had a high level of martial arts cultivation, while the other three were not even that high. Fortunately, Bian Weikang did not despise them regardless of whether they were male or female, and he slowed down to accompany them in the flight... In Bowang Tower, Che Si hurried to Miao Yilan's office and asked for instructions, "Miss Miao." "Come in." Miao Yilan's voice came out. Che Si immediately entered the room, walked to Miao Yilan's desk, glanced at the beautiful feathers that had been placed again, and reported: "Miss Miao, Shi Chun and the others left with Bian Weikang and Xiang Lan'er. It seems that they left Zhaotian City. I can't follow them any further." "Left?" Miao Yilan, who had just opened the account book, was stunned, then turned her head to look at him, "Didn't you say to pay back the debt within three days? How can I pay it back now that I've left?" She was a little bit unconvinced that Shi Chun could do such a thing to go back on his word in front of her. Did he really think that he could do whatever he wanted after leaving the place of exile and that he could do nothing to them? For her, the money is not a big deal, she just doesn't want to be cheated like a fool. Che Si: "I don't know what happened, but from what I saw Lao Dong and Da Shitou were doing yesterday, they must know the inside story." Miao Yilan thought about it, paused what she was doing, stood up and said, "Call them both over." "Yes." Che Si agreed and left. Lao Dong and Da Shitou, who took leave yesterday, have returned to their posts as normal. Both of them are responsible for warehousing and outbound delivery in the warehouse. In fact, they are two porters. Without letting the two of them know whether they were willing or not, Che Si and the person in charge of the warehouse moved out Miao Yilan's sign and easily took the two of them away. The two asked what was going on along the way, but Che Si did not answer and took them directly to Miao Yilan's case room. On the balcony, Miao Yilan was basking in the morning sun, her whole body shrouded in a layer of glow. She was also waiting for them. When the two of them arrived, they bowed and greeted her. Miao Yilan turned around and didn't say anything to the two of them. She asked directly: "Shi Chun and the others left Zhaotian City today. Did you know?" "do not know." "know."
The two people gave different answers in unison. The one who said he didn't know was Lao Dong, and the one who said he knew was Da Shitou. Lao Dong's face turned green on the spot, and he didn't know where to look. In short, he didn't dare to look at Miao Yilan's eyes. He had the urge to strangle Dashitou to death. Dashitou was also embarrassed. He probably guessed that what Laodong meant by "I don't know" was that he didn't want to leak the secret, but he didn't mean to leak the secret when he said "I know". He felt that the fact that Shi Chun and the others had left Zhaotian City could not be concealed, otherwise he would not have come to them to ask about it. Miao Yilan, who was always gentle in her words and deeds, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows at the two completely different answers. She really didn't expect that the two guys would dare to lie so obviously in front of her. Che Si snorted coldly and looked at Lao Dong with a cold gaze. Anyone who said "I don't know" was definitely lying. He was about to knock on Lao Dong's bowl, but Lao Dong suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "I remember now. Dashitou reminded me that I drank too much yesterday and almost lost my mind. Yes, yes, yes, Shi Chun and the others seemed to have said during the dinner that they were leaving today." Miao Yilan raised her pretty lips and asked, "He just ran away like that. He didn't return the money he borrowed from me?" Lao Dong immediately said, "He will pay it back. If nothing unexpected happens, he will have someone send the money over today." Miao Yilan was puzzled: "Bian Weikang can pay him back so quickly?" Dashitou lowered his head slightly, not knowing what to say. But Lao Dong said neatly, "Where did Bian Weikang get the money to pay it back? Shi Chun has made an agreement with Lu Taizhen. If he sells Xiang Lan'er to Lu Taizhen, he will have the money." The big rock suddenly turned around and looked at him, then quickly lowered his head to hide his surprised reaction. Miao Yilan and Che Si were both confused and didn't understand what he meant. They had robbed Lu Taizhen's person and then sold him to Lu Taizhen. Did they hear him right? What was the point of going around in such a big circle? Lao Dong looked sincere, as if I had not told a lie. Che Si couldn't help but interrupt, "How are they sold?" Lao Dong: "I don't know how to sell it specifically. The transaction method should have been secretly discussed with Cao Puqing's nephew Cen Futong. He didn't tell us." Che Si: "Discuss in secret? What's there to discuss in secret? Besides, they robbed the person that Lu Taizhen wanted to buy, and then sold it to Lu Taizhen. How could that be possible? Are they bored, or do they think Lu Taizhen has a lot of free time?" Lao Dong: "That's different. It would cost Lu Taizhen 500,000 gold to buy it from Liyun Tower, but only 200,000 gold to buy it from Shi Chun." "..." What the hell! Miao Yilan and Che Si didn’t understand at first, but they realized the problem. After thinking about it carefully, they gradually figured out the trick and were all dumbfounded. After a while, Miao Yilan finally woke up as if from a dream. She stared at Lao Dong and Da Shitou and asked, "Where are they trading?" Anyone could see that this woman seemed to want to stop the deal. Lao Dong shook his head and said, "We really don't know the specific details of the transaction, and he wouldn't tell us. When he first borrowed the money, we didn't know he was going to do this. He only let us know after the person was redeemed. He said that we are now members of Bowang Tower, and he wouldn't let us participate in this matter. He only asked us to help return the money to you." He had to emphasize these things to distance himself from the matter and to say that he did not go out to participate in any private activities. Miao Yilan had a complicated expression and sighed, "After all, she is a living person. How can you sell her around like this?" Lao Dong and Da Shitou were stunned and looked at her in surprise. If she couldn't even do this, then there was nothing to talk about and they would have starved to death in the place of exile long ago. Then Dashitou tried to remind her: "Miss Miao, she was originally a prostitute, and she was originally sold." Lao Dong also nodded in agreement and said, "It's the same whether Liyunlou is sold to Lu Taizhen or Shichun is sold to Lu Taizhen. There is no difference. Shichun just made a profit from the difference." Miao Yilan was speechless. She paid 450,000 yuan, and you only paid 50,000 yuan. What qualifications do you have to sell her out? The most important thing is that you have ruined a couple who loved each other. She couldn't accept this.
It was a pity that she had believed that before, and was moved by Shi Chun's words that "mutual love is better than countless money". It turned out that he had to listen to the opposite of what he said. It turned out that the guy's politeness was just an act. How bad! Lao Dong and Da Shitou were fine, but the problem was Che Si's reaction. At first, he was as shocked as she was, but now there was surprise and admiration in his eyes. Was he praising Shi Chun for her beautiful work? In that case, she didn't want to say any more and waved her hand for everyone to leave. When they reached the corner of the corridor, four or three people in the car who were about to go downstairs suddenly pulled over and bowed in unison, "Madam Boss." A person came up from downstairs. It was none other than Lan Qiaoyan, the person in charge of Bowang Tower, the place of exile. She came to see her daughter, so she didn't have to stay in the exile place all the time. She could go in and out whenever she wanted. In fact, she spent most of her time in the outside world. She nodded slightly. She was familiar with Che Si. When her eyes swept across the faces of the other two, she was stunned and stopped, asking in surprise: "Why are you two here?" Not only had Lao Dong and Da Shitou met each other in the land of exile, but she had also recently personally recommended him to Bowang Tower, so how could he not know him? Lao Dong's representative replied, "The person in charge saw that you recommended us, and asked us if we knew Miss Miao. We said we did, and he said it would be easier to communicate with acquaintances, so he assigned us over." "..." Lan Qiaoyan was speechless. Never mind. It was nothing. She waved her hand and told them to go about their own business. She turned around and left. When he arrived at his daughter's room, he saw her leaning on the balcony railing in a daze. She didn't even notice him approaching, so he immediately woke her up and asked her what was going on. What else could it be? Miao Yilan told Shi Chun about borrowing money to sell the top-notch jewelry at Liyunlou. (End of this chapter)
