With each word, Luo Wuyou opened her red lips and spoke calmly. However, every word that Liu Suifeng spoke was like a thunderclap that resounded in her ears.

After a long while, Liu Suifeng actually laughed at the sky, that laughter, was unbridled and wanton, and even carried a few bloodthirsty killing intent, no longer having that elegant demeanor he had at the beginning of Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Miss Luo, you sure have a big mouth? However, what do you think makes me believe you? Based on your identity as a Miss Luo Family, or based on your glib tongue? Or perhaps, based on your nonsense? "

Liu Suifeng stopped his laughter and said coldly: "If there is nothing else, it is better for Miss Luo to return earlier. After all, a pavilion is the place where your daughter should stay. "Especially since this place has not been peaceful for a long time!"

Was he trying to chase her away?

Luo Wuyou laughed coldly in his heart, but she did not reveal it on the surface. She knew that if she continued to talk, she would not be able to come to a conclusion.

Only, after only two steps, Liu Suifeng's voice once again came from behind him.

"Miss Luo is a smart person. I believe that Miss Luo will know what to do, what not to do, what not to say, and what not to say."

Liu Suifeng's words were indifferent, but they were filled with threat. This man's vengeful personality was really just like his venomous mouth, really unpleasing to the mouth.

"I, Wuyou, will remember Young Master Liu's reminder." Luo Wuyou's footsteps paused, she then turned around and looked at Liu Suifeng who was still seated on the couch, "However, to be polite, Wuyou also wants to give Young Master Liu a gift: Yuanan Tang, Zhang Fowang, I hope that you will bear this in mind."

"I believe that we will meet again very soon."

Luo Wuyou was extremely confident in her last sentence. After saying that, she landed on the ground and left without waiting for Liu Suifeng to reply. In the blink of an eye, she had already disappeared from the pleasure boat.

The beautiful boat suddenly became empty. The man sat on the boat by himself. His face was gloomy. He no longer had that carefree and happy expression from before. As his five fingers clenched and twisted, the Glass Bead in his hand disintegrated into dust, slowly leaking from his five fingers.

"Luo Wuyou, Luo Wuyou..."

Liu Suifeng's red lips moved slightly, muttering the name. His voice was low and magnetic, making it sound like a soft conversation between lovers. However, that pair of narrow and long pupillary pupil that were bright as meteors also contained a trace of coldness.

That secret was related to the life and death of several hundred people in the Liu Family. It had been forty years now and his father had tightly guarded that secret, and it was only a year ago, when he was selected as the Liu Family's young lord, that he found out this secret.

But, that young girl, that young girl, she actually knew about it?

Liu Suifeng pursed his lips, his expression becoming more and more solemn. No, this matter is too important, he had to quickly report this to the old man, if not...

With a wave of his sleeve, Liu Suifeng stood up and walked out. Min Xi, who was guarding the cruise liner, only saw a shadow flash in front of him and his young master's person disappeared. He was so anxious that he hurriedly jumped off the cruise liner and chased after the figure that disappeared.

The slender young girl behind the curtain of the cruise liner took in the entire scene. The corner of her mouth slightly curled up and a sliver of light appeared in her eyes.

Liu Suifeng, I'm looking forward to the day you take the initiative to look for me. "You look down on women, but one day, I will make you come to my door in person.

Her voice was light, but it sounded powerful and powerful. After Luo Wuyou finished speaking, she looked up at the sky and saw that it was already the end of the hour, and the right time to speak. Since everything had been settled, she naturally had to go find Hong Jin and the girl.

Otherwise, that girl would have been waiting anxiously for him.

Only, she didn't realize that while she was staring at Liu Suifeng, there was also a pair of black eyes watching her from under the dark sky. What she didn't know, was that the black figure had listened to every word she said without missing anything.

"Heh, he really is …" What about an arrogant woman?

That person softly snorted. His gentle voice carried a trace of hoarseness and also a hint of allure. It was as though stardust was being held in the palm of his hand. It gently landed on the tranquil river surface and turned into a field of resplendent starlight before disappearing.

When Luo Wuyou returned to the kayak he rented, her expression immediately changed.

The boat was still there, but Hong Jin, who should have been waiting for her on the boat, had disappeared without a trace. In the bustling lake, the Ye kayak was floating in the water, gently swaying.

Luo Wuyou stepped into the cabin of the ship, her clear eyes swept across the few places inside, and saw two plates of pastries, some snacks with broken mouths, and two cups of tea placed on a small table in the cabin. It was exactly the same as when she left, with the only difference being that there were traces of scraps of meat and food piled up on the deck of the boathouse.

His finger reached into the teacup and touched it; it was ice-cold. Evidently, the two cups of tea had already lost their warmth, and the light in Luo Wuyou's eyes became deeper and deeper.

Once again scanning her surroundings, Luo Wuyou saw that there was a basket placed at the corner of the boat shed. Luo Wuyou bent over and picked up the basket.

Luo Wuyou's gaze, however, was fixated on one of the tea bowls within the basket that was slightly stained with yellow water. Her delicate big hands gently rubbed against the side of the cup, causing people to be unable to clearly see her expression.

Of the two cups of tea, one should have been drunk by Hong Jin, but the other cup, who did Hong Jin prepare it for? It was clear that the other cup of tea was not the cup she had drunk, because the cup she had drunk was still in the basket.

In this kind of environment, she might have been mistaken, but she definitely couldn't be wrong. The tea bowl she was drinking in, the porcelain on the outside of the bowl, was as big as a small fingernail.

This tea was currently lying in her palm. Similarly, she had touched the tea that was placed on a few small tables in the awning, but her body was still as clean as new without any feeling of having to scrape her hand.

A single point was enough to prove that there had been a third person who had come to this boat before. Perhaps, he had even talked to Hong Jin before, because a large portion of the water in the teacup had already been drained away, leaving behind only the nearly dried up tea leaves.

Then, who was that person?

And why would he come to the kayak they rented?

Was Hong Jin taken away by that person, or was she willing to leave?

What had happened in her absence?

The furnishings here were not messy, and there were no signs of struggle. Therefore, Wuyou thought that Hong Jin had willingly followed that person, but in her heart, she felt a trace of unease, as if she had forgotten about something.

But what was it?

Hong Jin had followed her for so many years, and knew that she had not yet returned. Logically speaking, she would definitely not leave her behind, especially since it was as Liu Suifeng had said, this place was a place where dragons and snakes were mixed, and there were even people from the three sects and nine streams. The Qinhuai River was a special place in the entire Qin Capital, it was a place that was not even under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

Furthermore, Hong Jin had been living in the Prime Minister's Mansion, although she was clever and steady, she was still simple and had seen too little of the world. If a girl were to leave alone, it would be hard to predict what would happen.

Luo Wuyou quietly stood at the bow of the ship and thought, no, although she guessed that it was possible, but, Hong Jin was currently dressed as a man, and she had never been the type to cause trouble, so even if she met some local thugs, she should be fine.

Then where did the uneasiness in her heart come from?

Luo Wuyou frowned slightly. In her mind, she suddenly recalled Liu Suifeng's words that meant something. Suddenly, Luo Wuyou turned around and took a sniff at the teacup on the table.

In the tea, the Ecstasy was actually put away.

Dammit, how did she forget that in this period of time, a major event had occurred in the Qin Capital, that was a serial murder case. In a short span of three months, eighteen people had been killed, and the victims were all young men between the ages of thirteen and twenty.

No wonder Liu Suifeng threatened her that this place had not been peaceful recently.

Since she was immersed in grief and could not extricate herself from it, and had stayed in the pavilion to mourn for her mother for three whole years, she had therefore never paid attention to this incident. However, this murder case could be said to have shocked the entire Qin Capital, because the only son of the Lord, as well as the heir to the Jin Prince Manor, were both on the list of people killed.

Therefore, although she didn't pay much attention to it, she had more or less heard some rumors from the lower class. It was just that it had been too long since she could recall that there was a young man between the ages of 13 and 20.

Hong Jin was thirteen years old this year, and was a woman disguised as a man. Now, she could smell a Ecstasy in the tea!

Although she didn't know what had happened to Hong Jin and whether she had met that perverted villain, she feared that her current situation wasn't too good.

The ominous premonition in her heart grew stronger and stronger. At this moment, Luo Wuyou was somewhat regretful, she should not have brought Hong Jin out at this time. Even if she had brought him out, she should not have left Hong Jin here alone.

Unlike her, where she had stepped on the edge of a blade, a sea of fire, a bandit's nest, and the palace that ate people without spitting out their bones, she had even stayed in that brothel by the Qing Huai River …

However, now was not the time to blame myself. The most urgent matter at hand was to find Hong Jin.

In her previous life, she owed Hong Jin too much and in this life, she was destined to repay him.

After carefully inspecting the entire kayak once and discovering nothing else, Luo Wuyou could only return to the shore. Looking at the boundless night sky, she saw that two sides of the river of Qinhuai River, which had fine and elegant buildings, and fixed her gaze on a certain spot in the distant horizon.

Right now, the only person who could help her find Hong Jin was most likely that person.

But, what kind of price would that person ask her to pay this time?

In the chaos of life and death, every step had been taken.
