This girl has indeed studied. Although she is eager, her words are clear and coherent.
Explain clearly the situation of her family and the cause and effect of the whole incident.
After Li Tianxin heard this, he frowned slightly:
"You, my aunt, are too useless."
Mingyue glanced at him and whispered:
"She is indeed at fault, but it's hard to tell the outcome from my uncle's side, so he made her cling to this glimmer of hope and risk her and her brother's lives.
"It's... it's indeed a bit overwhelming."
Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows, wondering whether this girl was willing to consider others, or whether she was a born virgin.
He tapped his fingers on the table twice and said softly:
"Since the other party requires that the things be delivered within three months, does that mean he has left a place for you?"
"kindness."
Mingyue nodded:
"Less than twenty miles away from here, there is Menghu Mountain, and there is a place on Menghu Mountain called Huyue Stream.
"They were waiting there..."
"Twenty miles... isn't too far."
Jiang Ran looked at the sun and suddenly smiled:
"Miss Mingyue, do you know how to paint?"
"Know a thing or two..."
Mingyue nodded slightly.
"good."
Jiang Ran stood up and glanced at Li Tianxin:
"Go and prepare some pens, ink, paper and inkstones."
Li Tianxin frowned slightly and reluctantly agreed.
Jiang Ran glanced at Mingyue:
"You come with me."
"good."
Mingyue nodded repeatedly. She finally encountered hope. No matter what she would experience next, she would not give up.
Jiang Ran led her directly into the inn and to the table where she sat before:
"you eat first."
He pointed to something on the table.
Mingyue hesitated, but finally nodded, carefully picked up a bun, and took small bites.
Jiang Ran looked at the prompt that popped up in front of him and fell into thinking.
This prompt popped up when Mingyue asked Jiang Ran to save her father.
At this time, Jiang Ran took a look and asked:
"What's your dad's name?"
"Father Liu Wenshan."
Mingyue quickly put down her buns and spoke seriously.
Jiang Ran waved his hand and asked her to continue eating. Looking at the prompt in front of him, he saw that it had changed.
[Knife catching mission: rescue Liu Wenshan.]
"...Is it still supplementing the information of the entire mission through other aspects?"
Jiang Ran's expression was a little strange. What if Liu Wenshan was dead?
Three months has actually not passed that long now.
But if the other party only wanted something, they would probably kill Liu Wenshan, and Mingyue and the others didn't know about it anyway.
You can just wait for the things to be delivered and then just grab them and leave, or you can just kill everyone and take the things away.
Unless...you have concerns.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran had another question:
"Why is that thing in your uncle's hands?"
Although the cause and effect have been explained clearly, there are still many details missing.
Mingyue put down the chopsticks in her hand and said honestly:
"I heard that thing was brought by my mother.
"My mother...is not a daughter of a rich family, but she comes from a martial arts family.
"That thing seems to be related to Jianghu.
"So it is very likely that he was taken away by my uncle..."
"I see."
Jiang Ran nodded, it made sense.
Perhaps the original purpose of this group of people going to Liu's house was not to find that thing from Liu's house.
Searching around is just a human effort.
The key is to capture Mingyue's father and force her uncle to hand over that thing.
And the reason why they didn't go to find his uncle was probably because they were afraid...
Thinking of this, Jiang Ran couldn't help but ask:
"What's your uncle's last name?"
"The last name is Ye."
Mingyue didn’t even think about it:
"When my mother was still alive, she once said his name. His name was... Ye Konggu."
"what is it call?"
Jiang Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at Mingyue.
Mingyue didn't expect Jiang Ran to react like this, and subconsciously shrank back. Seeing that Jiang Ran was just shocked, not angry, she felt a little relieved.
After pondering, he said softly:
"Young Master, do you know my uncle?"
"..."
Jiang Ran let out a sigh of relief, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
Ye Konggu... is the head of the Hong Maple Leaf family and the father of Ye Jingshuang.
In other words, this girl is Ye Jingshuang's cousin?
Could it be that the group of people who found her home were the same people who ran away from Wuxin Ghost Mansion?
Jiang Ran had doubts about the Hong Maple Leaf family before.
I always feel that when their own situation is extremely critical, why do these people insist on challenging the Hong Maple Leaf Family?
The Lord of the Ghost Mansion is watching with eager eyes, and acting like this will do them no good at all.
Therefore, Jiang Ran had doubted whether there was something in the Hong Maple Leaf family that they must want to get their hands on.
These two...could they be related?
But in terms of behavior, it doesn't look like it.
Be it Dao Zhen or Zhang Dongxuan, they are ruthless and will never leave anyone alive, especially everyone who has seen them must be killed.
If it were them, Mingyue would have been dead long ago.
Jiang Ran pondered in his heart, and after a moment he glanced at Mingyue, who was staring at him, and said softly:
"I've heard about it... but I've never seen it."
"oh."
Mingyue nodded, seeming somewhat disappointed.
I feel that if I could meet my uncle's acquaintances, things would go more smoothly.
But things have turned out much better than she originally imagined. At least the person in front of her is a good person who is willing to feed her.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Li Tianxin coming in front of the inn, holding pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Put it on the table, and before sitting down, Jiang Ran said:
"You go out again..."
Li Tianxin was immediately furious:
"Do you treat me like a servant?"
"no."
Jiang Ran glanced at him doubtfully:
"Aren't we friends?"
"……friend?"
Li Tianxin was stunned.
Jiang Ran nodded seriously:
"Are you so reluctant to do something for your friend?"
"I...I didn't."
Li Tianxin shook his head, feeling as if he was sorry for Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran sighed:
"That's it. If you don't want to, forget it. I thought we were friends...it turns out that's not what you thought."
"...What do you want me to do?"
Li Tianxin gritted his teeth.
Jiang Ran was delighted and was about to speak when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door.
When he turned around, he saw the gorgeous woman who had just left in embarrassment, following a group of people to the door of the inn, and saw Jiang Ran sitting here at a glance.
He immediately raised his finger:
"it's him!!!"
Seeing this, Jiang Ran smiled at Li Tianxin:
"It came a bit quickly, but it saved you another trip."
