Sensing her gaze, Wu Chao looked over and said to her, "I will let you know when I sort out the situation."
Xu Mingyi could not help but come to his senses.
He had always done this before. If he found out anything, he would tell her immediately, and he would do what he said every time.
But... I don't know if it was because Wu Chao was right in front of her, but for a moment, she felt a strange sense of overlap in her heart.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that the way she looked at him was obviously strange, Wu Chao asked in confusion.
"It's okay, I just suddenly thought of some past events..."
The girl's eyes were fixed on her face when she spoke, and Wu Chao's eyebrows softened a lot unconsciously - so, were she thinking of the past with him?
He would also often recall the things that happened when he first met her.
Every time I think about it, I always feel that I was stupid and deserved to be beaten.
"Wu Chao——" the girl called him out loud.
"Um?"
"I will also check it out -" she said with serious eyes: "I will help you find out the inside story about your family's arrangement of your fake death."
Maybe she can think of more clues...
Based on the scattered information from previous lives...
After Wu Chao was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but smile.
Sure enough, I was still thinking about him.
"Okay, let's check it out together." The young man's tone was pleasant, as if he no longer felt that it was a particularly heavy topic because of the unknown.
Even if he didn't think that he, as a member of the Wu family, could not find out things for a while, Xu Mingyi really believed that he could find out something.
But he was very happy to accept this intention.
"One more thing -"
Xu Mingyi temporarily put aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind that could not be sorted out at the moment, and asked him: "I heard that when Linfutang was attacked by an assassin last night, someone took the risk to save him and was injured?"
"There is such a thing."
"I also heard that this person is actually a staff writer in Ji Xiu's house——"
This is the news she heard this morning.
"I have also heard about this." Wu Chao said: "This person may be the staff member in the Shangshu's Mansion who I mentioned to you earlier and has a strange identity and has never been seen in public."
That is, the mysterious person who has advised Ji Xiu many times.
The reason why Xu Mingyi asked specifically was obviously thinking of this. At this time, he asked again: "Were you there last night? Can you see the age and appearance of that person clearly?"
My grandfather was there at that time, but he had no impression of this person. He only knew that there was such a person. Because the situation was chaotic at that time, my grandfather was fighting with the assassins and was not distracted by the so-called rescuer.
It is said that after the man was hit by an arrow, he quickly fell down and was helped away. My grandfather was only thinking about how to save Ming Shi, so he didn't stay much afterwards.
"This man rushed out from me at that time, with a very clear purpose." Wu Chao recalled: "He was a very young man, not slow in skills, and he looked like a scholar."
Someone who is not slow in skills, young and scholar?
Listening to these descriptions, Xu Mingyi's fingers holding the tea cup tightened immediately, and she immediately asked: "Is your appearance somewhat gentle and handsome?"
Gentle and handsome?
Wu Chao frowned subconsciously, thought for a moment, and then nodded: "It's okay."
After all, he never has a clear understanding of people's looks, including himself. If he is asked to describe how a person looks, he usually chooses to give a similar example——
"The second master of your house has the same appearance."
Xu Mingyi's eyes completely changed.
She put down the tea cup, stood up and said, "I'm going to meet this person."
Wu Chao stood up and asked seriously: "But what's the problem?"
Xu Mingyi tried his best to restrain the turmoil in his heart and said in a calm voice: "This person is most likely Zhan Yunzhu——"
She had vaguely felt that the behavior of the staff member in Ji Xiu's residence was somewhat familiar...
Furthermore, the so-called rescue act last night was very similar to what Zhan Yunzhu would do!
And the voice she heard talking to Ji Wanyou in the garden before... maybe she didn't hear it wrong at all!
And if it is really Zhan Yunzhu, then everything will be correct, including her increasingly strong intuition during this period...
"Zhan Yunzhu?" Wu Chao frowned slightly: "You mean that after he escaped, he has been hiding in Ji Xiu's house——"
"That's what I'm guessing right now." Xu Mingyi was eager to verify: "Whether it's him or not, you'll know at first sight."
Wu Chao hesitated for a moment, but finally raised his hand to stop her.
"Don't worry yet."
Xu Mingyi raised his eyes and looked at him.
"At this time, the person is placed in Linfu Hall, and it is not appropriate to go there rashly. And if it is really him, then his purpose of rescuing him must be to take this opportunity to return to the world with his original identity - yes
Whether it is or not, we will know the answer soon."
After hearing these words, Xu Mingyi's eyes gradually calmed down.
Wu Chao is right, there is no need to worry about this matter.
She suddenly came up with this guess, subconsciously thinking that if she was too late, Zhan Yunzhu would escape again, so she was somewhat impulsive.
This is absolutely impossible.
Even though she knew that Zhan Yunzhu's existence was like a demon from her previous life, the more so, the more she needed to face it calmly.
"Don't worry, I will let people keep an eye on him." Wu Chao said: "People will also pay attention to the movements in Linfu Hall and report to you at any time."
Xu Mingyi's mood has calmed down and she nodded "Okay".
…
At the same moment, in the study room of Ji Xiu's residence, the faint voice of a girl's urgent voice could be heard.
"Father, please let me go and see Mr. Zhan. My daughter really can't worry about him..."
"How can you, a daughter of yours who has not left the palace, go to Linfu Hall to see a man in front of everyone? Wan'er, this is not in our own house." Ji Xiu sighed: "People talk too much.
,Father is also thinking about your reputation."
"But my daughter will be the same sooner or later..." Ji Wanyou said halfway, when she met her father's eyes, she finally swallowed it.
Even so, Ji Xiu guessed the remaining half of the words.
"Wan'er, even now, are you still unwilling to give up?"
Give up?
Ji Wanyou looked slightly startled: "Didn't father say that taking possession of the young master will not harm his life?"
"How could he put his own life in danger if he was so good at calculations? I'm afraid even his position when blocking the arrow was carefully calculated." Ji Xiu sneered and said, "Not to mention saving his life——"
This time he was careless.
He should have seen how ambitious this person was, and he should not have brought him here this time - once this person had the possibility of getting close to the emperor, even if there was no assassination last night, the other party would definitely find other opportunities to show off.
Own.
This kind of person will never miss any opportunity to climb up!
