Chapter 682: The Man in the Painting

As soon as she came out of the club, Xiaoduo pestered Niu Lao and refused to leave.

Zheng Ruhuan followed and watched this scene with a smile.

A few of us chatted for a while, and then Mr. Niu suddenly asked Zheng Ruhuan:

"Old Zheng, there is something I don't understand. Does Huo Yuhan have a thousand masters under his command?"

Zheng Ruhuan thought for a moment and replied:

"Zhai Huaiyi knows a few thousand arts, but he is not a master of a thousand arts. As for the others, I have never heard of them!"

Mr. Niu looked into the distance, thought for a moment, and said:

"This is a bit strange. He clearly knows that Chu Liu's Qianju is very good, so why would he choose this method of gambling?"

Mr. Niu is strange, but I am also strange.

Before getting on the bus, Mr. Niu called me aside and told me:

"On the sixth day of the lunar month, you must be careful about Xiaoduo's affairs. Whether this Huo Yuhan is an enemy or a friend, it is difficult to tell for a while. Everything must be done with caution!"

Mr. Niu's idea coincides with mine.

Early the next morning, I just got up and finished cleaning up.

The cell phone rang. The call was from Zhai Huaiyi.

As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard Zhai Huaiyi say directly:

"Mr. Chu, I'll wait for you downstairs in your hotel!"

That Huo Yuhan said yesterday that he would send someone to pick me up today.

But it was agreed to be eleven o'clock, why did you come so early?

I asked casually, and Zhai Huaiyi explained directly:

"The place we are going to today may be a little far away. That's why I came to pick you up so early!"

I agreed, called Mr. Hong and the others, and then went downstairs.

As soon as I got downstairs, I saw a golden Coaster parked at the door.

Two people were standing next to the car, chatting in low voices.

One of them is Zhai Huaiyi.

The other person, somewhat beyond my expectation, turned out to be Zhang Fan.

Seeing me coming, Zhai Huaiyi made a "please" gesture toward the car door.

"Mr. Chu, please!"

Just as a few of us were about to get on the bus, Zhai Huaiyi suddenly raised his hand and stopped Mr. Hong and the others behind him.

"What's the meaning?"

Master Hong asked Zhai Huaiyi dissatisfiedly.

"I'm sorry, our uncle Huo said that we will only invite two people today. One is Mr. Chu and the other is Ms. Zhang Fan. She is today's referee!"

"No, Xiao Liuye can't go alone!"

Lao Hei stood aside and said decisively.

Everyone had the same idea, they all thought it was too dangerous for me to go alone.

How could Zhai Huaiyi not see this idea? He smiled lightly, turned to look at me, and said:

"Mr. Chu, I think you are a little underestimating our brother Pao. Uncle Huo is true to his words. If you want to use other ways to solve this problem, do you think you can really stop us?"

What Zhai Huaiyi said is not an exaggeration at all.

I looked back at Mr. Hong and the others and said:

"It's okay, I'll go alone!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I turned around and got in the car.

The place Zhai Huaiyi took us to was an ancient town below Rongcheng.

As soon as you arrive in the town, you will feel like you have traveled back in time.

The entire town is full of ancient buildings with gray bricks and blue tiles.

Ancient streets, ancient trees, ancient temples, and ancient embankments can be seen everywhere.

When passing by the intersection of Jinjiang River and Luxi River, Zhang Fan looked out the car window and said with emotion:

"The yellow dragon crosses the Qingjiang River, and the real dragon is hidden inside. This is truly the most holy place on earth!"

After passing through the ancient town, the car bumped along the winding paths for a long time before stopping at an antique courtyard in the suburbs.

The courtyard is not big, but it is antique and full of ancient charm.

On both sides of the gatehouse is a green bamboo forest.

What is extremely incongruous with this elegant scenery is that there are several security employees standing at the door.

Zhai Huaiyi took us into the courtyard.

As soon as I opened the door, I was surprised by the plum blossoms filling the courtyard.

Although the plum blossom season has passed, the plum blossoms in many potted plants are still in full bloom.

Just as he was watching, he saw Huo Yuhan walking out of the side room.

He first greeted Zhang Fan and then said to me:

"Come with me!"

Cross the yard and arrive in front of the main house.

Standing at the door, I heard Huo Yuhan whisper into the room:

"Are you ready?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's voice came from inside.

"What are you preparing for? Aren't you going to let me bet?"

I'm not a sound-sensitive person.

But this woman's voice was melodious and melodious, pointing directly to people's hearts.

Huo Yuhan sighed and said:

"The situation is different, there is nothing we can do! If you agree, open the door now!"

Huo Yuhan's tone with this woman was very gentle.

There is no sense of majesty like that of Uncle Pao Ge.

Soon, the double wooden doors slowly opened.

A woman appeared at the door.

The moment I saw her, I was stunned.

Su Shi's sentence "Time never defeats beauty" immediately came to mind.

Ask yourself over the years, I have traveled far and wide and seen many beauties.

But the woman in front of her was completely different from those beauties.

Her beauty does not lie in her fair skin and good looks.

It's her graceful and classical temperament that matches this antique building.

This will give people a sense of being in the painting.

She also wore a light cyan retro buttoned antique-style chiffon dress.

On the right shoulder, a blooming plum blossom is embroidered.

The only regret is that her neat and smooth shawl long hair is actually mixed with a lot of snow-white white hair.

Don't know why.

When I saw this woman, I felt an indescribable feeling of intimacy for no reason.

And when she saw me, she was slightly startled.
