Fang Jinshu watched Zong Yu drink the water she had offered him, finishing it in one gulp without any hesitation.

I feel a little guilty about doing this.

Seeing A Yu sleeping soundly on the table with his handsome face, Fang Jinxiu apologized guiltily.

"I'm sorry, Ayou."

"I must obtain this Xixia pass document. And I will make sure that anyone who has harmed you pays the price for their actions."

"Li Lie's dog life, I must personally end it!"

She leaned down and kissed Zongyu on the cheek.

"You sleep for a while, I'll be back in a little bit."

Under the cover of darkness, Fang Jinshi closed her door and quietly headed toward Jiang Chuang's residence.

But Jiang Chuang was no longer in the house at this time.

After Fang Jinshu left, Jiang Chuang sat in the room for a long time. He never expected that the person who had once mobilized the entire West Zhou branch to hunt him down was Jinxiu.

She had become an enemy of Li Lie, and that was not a good thing. According to some information he had received, all signs pointed to Hellie being a cruel and vindictive person who would seek revenge for even the smallest slight.

Even if Jinxiu didn't go looking for him, he would probably find a way to come back and seek revenge on her.

No, he can't let Xiu Xiu encounter such danger again.

Just as Jiang Chuan was about to leave, a black shadow suddenly appeared outside the door.

"Who!"

Jiang Chuang was highly vigilant. The moment someone approached, he sensed it.

"Young Master, the Marquis invites you to come outside the manor for a chat."

Jiang Chuantun for a moment, how did he get here.

He opened the door and walked out.

"What is he doing coming to the talent recruitment fair Isn't it a detriment to his official reputation for him to come to such a place"

Jiang Chuang's tone was full of mockery. The man standing before him quickly lowered his head, his expression filled with fear.

"Young Master, Your father-in-law still cares about you very much."

"As for Xiang Ye's current situation, you are very aware of it. Being able to come out and meet you despite such a great risk, there must be something very important you want to tell me."

"Please, young master, come with me."

Jiang Chuang snorted coldly, "Pretentious."

"If there's no task for me to do, would he come to me proactively"

No one knew Yuan Buyu better than his illegitimate son.

"Let's go."

But he also needs his power now, and he can't afford to turn against him just yet.

"Yes, young master, this way."

A rather understated carriage stood parked in the shade of a nearby grove. Under the cover of night, one wouldn't even notice it was there unless they got closer.

Two people arrived in front of the carriage.

"Master Xiang, the young master has arrived."

Yuan Buyu's voice came from inside slowly.

Come up.

Jiang Zhuang remained with a cold face, leaning on the carriage handle and jumping aboard. The coachman hurriedly helped him open the curtain.

Yuan Buyu remained as composed as ever, only a slight smile appearing on his face when he saw Jiang Chuang.

"Come, have a seat."

He nudged the pastries on his table towards Jiang Chuang's direction.

"This pastry was specially made by the chef. You loved it the most when you were a child. I remember once, Xiangli found the pastry you had hidden so carefully and threw it into the lake."

"You jumped right in without a word."

"Now nobody throws away pastries anymore, you can have as many as you want, son."

Hearing that final title, Jiang Chuang frowned in disgust.

"Don't call me that, it's disgusting."

Maybe there are a lot of people in this world who want to be your son, Yuan Xiang, but I don't.

In the face of Jiang Chuang's cold expression, Yuan Buyu did not feel embarrassed at all, but instead smiled calmly and retracted his hand that was pushing the pastries.

"For so many years, you have grown and prospered under my support."

"I haven't made your identity public yet, and there are reasons for that. I will tell you about them later."

But no matter what, we're father and son. There wouldn't be you today without me, would there

The carriage ride had become unbearable. With every word he uttered, the man felt his hand instinctively tightening around the hilt of his sword. He couldn't guarantee it would stay sheathed much longer if they kept talking.

"Alright, you woke me up in the middle of the night for something other than to say these nasty things, right"

"If there's something, say it quickly."

Yuan Xiang looked like a loving father, facing his rebellious and defiant son with a helpless yet indulgent smile.

Jiang Zhuang had long been accustomed to this hypocritical facade of his. In a way, he also admired this biological father of his.

To become a prime minister, to wield power in Kyoto, under the emperor's very nose for so many years, his position as solid as a mountain. His cunning and methods are not something ordinary people can compare to.

He never took that fake face off. Over time, he even fooled himself, thinking Yuan Buyu's kind words were genuine expressions of fatherly affection when he heard them.

However, reality was far from what he saw.

"I want you to kill someone for me, right here in the villa."

Hearing this, Jiang Chuang felt his heart sink again as usual. He knew this was how it would be.

One doesn't go to the three treasure halls for nothing; if there's no business for him, he'll never come looking.

"Kill who"

However, Jiang Chuang was also accustomed to this kind of thing. After all, they were now in a relationship of mutual benefit.

From the day he was born, these hands had been stained with blood, and now they were even more so, not caring about adding one more.

"Fang Jinshi."

"Who"

Hearing this name, Jiang Chuang was shocked beyond words. But the more shocked he was, the less he could show it in front of Yuan Buyu, otherwise he would be even more interested in Xiu Xiu and would want to get rid of her even more.

Therefore, Jiang Zhuang could only feign confusion and disdain.

"You're not talking about the proprietress of Jinshui Garden, are you"

Yuan Buyu smiled and nodded, but his eyes became unfathomable. He kept staring at Jiang Chuang, as if trying to see something on his face.

"Hmph, how come now you can't even handle a woman You need me to take action and kill"

"Such a simple thing, why don't you just have those bunch of useless people you're raising do it"

"I wouldn't take such a simple task. It's insulting me and wasting my time."

Yuan Buyu seemed to have known he would say that all along.

"If I said, I could kill her and let you see your mother again."

Jiang Zhuan suddenly trembled all over, his hands clenching tightly.

He slowly turned his head to look at Yuan Buyu.

"She's not dead."

Yuan Buyu raised an eyebrow. "When did I ever say she was dead"

"Since you think my men are all trash, then do better than them and show me. Otherwise, what's the difference between you and them"

"Go."

Jiang Chuang got out of the carriage, his face never looking better than it did at that moment, dark and terrifying.

You despicable creature!

What a disgrace!

He was even threatened with his mother.

The original world's mother looks exactly like Jiang Chuang's original mother. For so many years, Jiang Chuang has been looking for her whereabouts. He knows she definitely didn't die.

But I never expected, mother was still in Yuan Buyu's hands. patriarch fell ill, the usually robust old man fell ill like a mountain collapsing. There are even signs of exhaustion and nearing the end of his life.Mrs. Wu spent her days weeping by her husband's...
