C8 Stealing the Thousand Year Lotus

And the two killers were so unlucky when they charged them.

The more Jiang Zihao thought about it, the more suspicious he felt. Jiang Zihao even felt that the mother and son pair were sent by the assassin organization to rob him.

He tried his best not to touch his chest. There was the Thousand Year Lotus he had painstakingly obtained there.

"Miss, where did you orphans and widows come from? Who are you going to find in the capital again? If you are a big family, "I, Jiang Zihao, was born in the Imperial Capital, so I should know him."

Hua Yan saw Jiang Zihao's vigilant expression and tensed body.

She smiled slightly and ignored him.

"Young Master Jiang might not know about the small door."

Hua Yan changed her posture and closed her eyes to sleep. Clearly, she did not want to talk to Jiang Zihao.

Jiang Zihao also saw that Hua Yan did not want to talk to him. He touched his nose and said to the Yuan Bao outside the carriage, "Little guy, why are you so powerful? You know so much about the Five Poison Powder."

"I saw it in the book."

Yuan Bao's childish voice sounded.

"I see. Then you're quite amazing. You've read a lot of books since you were young, haven't you?"

Jiang Zihao asked again.

"Yuanbao, what did Mom tell you before we went out?"

Yuanbao was about to speak when he heard Hua Yan shout.

The little fellow vomited, "Mom said not to talk to strangers."

Jiang Zihao was speechless.

Along the way, no matter what Jiang Zihao said, the mother and son ignored him.

Jiang Zihao knew that his cautious and suspicious attitude had offended Hua Yan, so he shut his mouth and didn't ask for trouble.

The journey to Dazhou Imperial City was very long. According to the speed of the donkey cart, it would take at least three days. However, the Thousand Year Lotus in his arms couldn't wait any longer. Moreover, he was staying with this fox-like woman. If he didn't say anything, he would die of suffocation.

"There's a small town ahead. Miss, put me down. I'll find a horse and go back on my own. Thank you for saving my life. The reward of 20,000 gold coins is enough for you. Miss, you just need to borrow the receipt from the General's Estate to get it."

"Okay."

Hua Yan nodded and did not try to persuade him to stay.

Jiang Zihao was furious. This woman was really not a good person. He did not even want to ride a donkey cart. The mother and son duo didn't say that they would take less money.

"Meeting is fate. I have already told you your name. Can you ask your name? Maybe we will meet again in the capital of Japan."

Before getting off the donkey cart, Jiang Zihao cupped his hands and asked.

At this moment, Hua Yan opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Zihao. She smiled and said, "You want to know my name?"

Jiang Zihao was shaken by Hua Yan's smile. He quickly bit the tip of his tongue to wake himself up, but he was even more vigilant in his heart. He thought to himself, "Is this woman here? A honey trap for him? Why did he feel his head go blank with just one look and a smile? His heartbeat sped up, and he felt weak all over his body?

Ha...

Fortunately, he was calm, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to hold it. He asked this woman's name to make it easier for him to look into her in the future.

"This Jiang is being rude."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Yan said with a smile.

"How can I casually tell you the name of a lady? That is the right that only future husband has. I have already said it, you are not the type that I like."

Hua Yan's words made Jiang Zihao's face turn red. He also realized that he was being rude.

In the next moment, Hua Yan suddenly spoke, "This little girl's surname is Hao. Her single name is Mei and she comes from the Dazhou Imperial Capital's Hao Family. If Young Master Jiang does not mind, you can go to the residence and have a cup of tea."

These words alleviated Jiang Zihao's embarrassment. He quickly cupped his hands. "So it's Miss Hao. Definitely, definitely."

However, in his heart, he was puzzled. Hao family? He had never heard of it before. Presumably, it was not a big family.

Hua Yan nodded her head with an innocent expression.

At this moment, Jiang Zihao jumped off the donkey cart. His body seemed to have lost its balance and he immediately fell towards Hua Yan. Hua Yan's eyes flashed slightly and she helped him up. Only then did she let him stand firmly. Jiang Zihao's hand passed by Hua Yan's waist without a trace. She thought that she did not know about it.

"Miss Hao, I'm sorry. The poison has yet to be removed and my body has yet to recover. Hence, I did not stand firmly just now. Sorry for offending you."

"It's fine."

Hua Yan said.

"Then we will meet again."

"Okay."

Jiang Zihao saw Yuan Bao smiling innocently and waving at him cutely. He suddenly felt that he was too petty. The mother and son seemed to be frank and honest. It seemed that they had nothing to do with Black Clothed Man. He had thought too much.

He clenched his fist. There was a jade pendant that he had just pulled off Hua Yan's body. It was there to verify his identity.

"Goodbye, uncle."

Yuan Bao waved at Jiang Zihao.

"Goodbye, little friend."

Jiang Zihao smiled awkwardly and waved his hand. Then he turned around and left. In the end, he did not return the jade pendant that he had stolen from Hua Yan.

Yuan Bao only laughed out loud when his figure faded out of their line of sight, "Mother, this uncle is really stupid. Miss Hao, Hao Mei, good girl, so beautiful..."

Hua Yan walked in front of Yuan Bao and gently flicked his forehead. There was an unconcealable lust in her eyes. "Just you, Ghost Elf. Look at what this is."

As she spoke, Hua Yan squatted down and snapped her fingers in front of Yuan Bao. A wooden box suddenly appeared in her hand.

"Mother, what is it?"

Yuan Bao asked.

Hua Yan smiled mysteriously and opened the box.

"Wow..."

Inside the crystal box, a pure white lotus with seven petals quietly bloomed. The fragrance was refreshing and the water droplets on the tender petals were glistening.

"Thousand Year Old Lotus."

Little Yuanbao exclaimed and looked at Hua Yan in shock.

Hua Yan smiled and nodded. Her fox-like eyes sparkled, "How is it? Is mother powerful?"

"Powerful, powerful. Where did mother get it from?"

Yuan Bao asked in a blink of an eye. Then, he turned his head and asked, "Could it be Uncle Jiang's?"

Hua Yan nodded and said, "Son, you are really smart. It is that guy surnamed Jiang."

"Mother, did that uncle give it to you?"

Yuan Bao asked.

He was driving in front. He did not know what had happened in the carriage. When he saw the New Year Lotus in front of him, he naturally thought that it was bought by Hua Yan.

Hua Yan's eyes flashed. She was a divine thief and Yuan Bao did not know. She did not plan to say much and nodded, "Yes. He is grateful to us mother and son for saving our lives, so he gave it to mother."

"So it's like this. That Uncle Jiang is really generous. He has already written an IOU of 20,000 gold and even gave us a New Year Lotus. This New Year Lotus is a spirit medicine that can only be chanced upon but not sought."

Hua Yan squinted her eyes when she heard what Yuan Bao said. Although she was a thief, she had her own way of doing things. As the saying goes, thieves also have their own way of doing things. Therefore, she did not steal innocent people or old people or sick people.

But this Jiang Zihao had broken her rules. She saved his life and gave him a ride. He paid twenty thousand gold and silver taels.

However, this man did not know what was good for him. He had provoked her relationship with Yuan Bao. This was one of the reasons. The second reason was that after he had asked her name, he had stolen her jade pendant when she fell down.

This was a huge taboo for her.

Therefore, they had to return the favor. He stole his own jade pendant. It was fair for her to steal the year lotus in his arms, even though she had bought it at a roadside stall on her way to the last market.

"Son, hurry up and eat it. This thing won't be left for long..."
