"Yeah." Wu Chao nodded: "The answer should be available soon."
As he spoke, he looked at the girl in front of him and said, "If Miss Xu is in a hurry to go back, I will send someone to your mansion after I get the news."
"There's no rush."
After Xu Mingyi answered, he finally asked: "But how could Mr. Wu think of making people stare at Mr. Lu?"
She also had people secretly keeping an eye on the second young lady of the Xia family, but after listening to Xu Ying's words——
What about him?
"It's not that I was deliberately watching her alone. I originally ordered some people to keep an eye on the Xia family's movements. I just found out that she went to Jingya yesterday to hide from anyone, so I assigned a few more people to watch her." Wu Cha said truthfully.
explained.
Xu Mingyi was even more stunned.
She never asked Wu Chao to help keep an eye on the Xia family——
She originally thought that when he asked her out this time, he had other important matters, but now it seems that he only asked her out because of Xu Ying's affairs, intending to discuss the next plan with her.
All in all, it was to help her.
And before she knew it, she had already done a lot.
In her previous life, she also knew that he was a person with a cold face and a warm heart. He always acted in such a way that if you showed respect to him, he would pay you back. He was a very worthy person to be friends with.
But it is indeed not easy to fall in his eyes and make friends with him.
Now it seems that he really regards her as a good friend.
But she didn't seem to have done much to help him.
He just reminded him a few times and sent Mr. Fang to him——
But she obviously had a purpose and never concealed her intention, just to continue to cooperate with him for a long time.
But what he is doing now, to put it more vividly, is that she gave the other party a peach, and the other party directly brought all the peach trees on the mountain to her as a return gift.
So...Wu Shisun seems to be alert and sharp, but is he actually so easy to deceive?
Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Xu Mingyi suddenly felt worried.
This means meeting a kind-hearted person like her. If someone with ulterior motives deliberately approached her, wouldn't it be possible to deceive her?
Meeting her gaze, Wu Chao was stunned.
What's the reason for Miss Xu's look as if she was looking at the silly son of a landlord?
Could it be that she had some plans and thought that he was meddling in other people's affairs and doing useless work?
The young man who never cared about other people's opinions and never liked to explain came up with a voice in his head - he didn't want Miss Xu to think he was stupid!
"I ordered people to keep an eye on the Xia family, not only to pay attention to the Xia family's movements in time, but also to confuse and distract their attention, so as to prevent them from really finding out about you."
Wu Chao explained sternly, but suddenly felt that saying this made him even more shallow.
What can you say in detail about this trivial matter?
It's like asking for credit, so superficial, it can't help but make people look down upon.
After living for seventeen years, for the first time, the young man felt that what he had done was so dishonorable and it was such a trivial thing.
The dissatisfied young man frowned slightly and picked up the tea cup uncomfortably.
Xu Mingyi was surprised again.
He actually had the intention of deliberately disrupting the Xia family's sight on her behalf?
And he said from the beginning that if she couldn't do it, he would do it.
At this time, she did it, and he secretly cleaned up the traces and hidden dangers for her without saying a word.
After experiencing what happened in her previous life, although she has become less trusting of others and has become more wary in her heart, she is also increasingly able to perceive and value the kindness from others.
In her opinion, these good intentions are the warm light in this world that can shine into people's hearts.
"Thank you Mr. Wu." Xu Mingyi smiled.
Seeing that she seemed a little touched, Wu Chao felt relieved and said: "It's okay, Miss Xu helped me a lot. When I entered the palace yesterday, I heard my aunt talk about the many times you examined her.
, and also sent the nursery formula to the palace."
Xu Mingyi smiled.
"The Queen treats me very well, these little things are not worth mentioning."
"Well, I can also see that my aunt likes you very much." Wu Chao seriously commented: "She rarely likes anyone like this."
As for being gentle and kind to the outside world, those are just the cloak of mother's care for the world.
Her aunt's love for her truly comes from the bottom of her heart.
And he felt that Miss Xu really deserved to be admired and liked like this - the Wu family always had good taste, and her aunt was no exception.
Xu Mingyi was not modest at all, and said with a smile: "Maybe it's because the Queen and I are very close to each other."
Wu Chao took a sip of tea and didn't talk about it any more.
Business is now, not the time for idle talk.
Seeing that he dropped the topic, Xu Mingyi naturally returned to the topic.
"Speaking of confusing the Xia family, there is a ready candidate right now."
Rather than letting Wu Chao's people divert the Xia family's attention for her, it would of course be more cost-effective to use an unrelated outsider.
After listening to her roughly explaining the cause and effect, Wu Chao couldn't help but look at her more.
It has to be said that Miss Xu is particularly keen and talented when it comes to finding where to find the wool.
Who says the enemy of my enemy is my friend?
In Miss Xu's case, the enemy's enemy can also be the scapegoat sent to her——
However, the other party used the life of an innocent woman to test Xia Han, so there was nothing to feel aggrieved about.
"It's just that we haven't found out the other party's true identity yet." Xu Mingyi said.
This matter could not be investigated with great fanfare, so she planned to inform her grandfather about the matter after she returned and asked him to arrange for suitable people to investigate.
"The owner behind Shang Yu Pavilion?" Wu Chao asked.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"On the surface it appears to be Sun's firm, but in fact it may be just a cover-up, and there is most likely someone else behind it."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Wu Chao calling the waiter to come upstairs.
"Pass my words and ask someone to find out who the real owner of Shangyu Pavilion in the capital is."
"Yes." The clerk came down and said, "This matter is not difficult to investigate, but it may take some time."
He didn't dare to vouch for anything else, but Shang Yuge was a famous jewelry store in Beijing. They had not spent a single day idle in the years they had taken root in Beijing. The details of any place worth mentioning in the city had long been revealed by them.
.
"It doesn't matter if you wait a few days." Xu Mingyi said from the side.
But I saw the waiter smiling simply.
"Miss Xu is joking, the results should be available in half an hour at the latest."
These things were recorded in detail by the people in the building, but there were too many books, so they had to go through them bit by bit.
Xu Mingyi fell into silence after being surprised.
The Wu family is worthy of being the Wu family. After hundreds of years of accumulation, it is destined to be beyond the imagination of people like them who have made a fortune halfway.
"Why don't you go quickly?"
Seeing the clerk standing there smiling, Wu Chao frowned.
Where did the people arranged by the capital come from? From secret guards to spies, each one was more talkative and more cheerful than the last - not at all comparable to the calmness of Ningyang's servants, which made people feel uneasy just looking at them.
Hearing this urging, the waiter hurriedly ran downstairs.
…
At the same moment, a woman wearing a curtain hat walked quickly out of the back door of Qingyang Temple.
The woman looked around to make sure there was no one on the nearby trail, and then hurriedly got into the carriage.
"How? What did you ask?"
Seeing the maid return, Mrs. Lu, who had been waiting anxiously in the carriage, immediately urged her.
