352 Storm House
When the emperor saw Ma Ling, he snorted and asked him, âWhat did Yuan Hui say to you when he went to your place?â
In the emperorâs opinion, Yuan Hui had been relatively quiet these days. He almost only stayed at Ning Yueâs house.
Even when he went out, he only went out to buy something. He did not do anything special, let alone befriend the officials of the Great Yun Nation.
Now that Yuan Hui had made a move, the first person he saw was actually the Inspector of Nine Gates!
Ma Ling was his trusted minister. He had worked under him for many years and was considered diligent.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The emperor did not understand what Yuan Hui wanted to do.
Yuan Hui had been shopping on the streets since he left the Nine Gates Military Governorâs Residence. He first went to the snack street to buy some food, then went to the jewelry shop to buy some jewelry.
After buying the items, Yuan Hui threw them to the guards and swaggered back home.
When the emperor heard the reports from the guards, his brows furrowed tightly.
What was Yuan Hui doing? What was he thinking? He better not let these small problems affect the cooperation between the two countries.
The emperor heaved a sigh of relief when he did not see Yuan Hui continue after being nervous for the entire day.
That day, Ning Yue fiddled with the medicinal powder in her makeshift lab. When it was time to eat, she left her room to cook. After eating and packing, she continued to return to the lab.
Even Yuan Hui did not know what she was doing.
At night, Yuan Hui couldnât help but knock on Ning Yueâs door. âYueyue?â
Ning Yue put down her work and opened the door.
âWhatâs wrong, Uncle?â Ning Yue asked.
âI saw that youâve been inside for the entire day. Do you need help?â Yuan Hui asked.
Ning Yue shook her head and said to Yuan Hui, âIâm going out tonight.â
âWhere are you going? Hurry up and transfer Baili back! Iâm worried about you going out in the middle of the night,â Yuan Hui said with a frown.
When Ning Yue heard this, she quickly refused. âNo need, no need. Iâll go alone. Itâll be bad if I bring too many people.â
She sent Baili to Jiang Yingâs side. If she transferred Baili back, there would be an opening beside Jiang Ying, making it easier for him to be a target.
âWhat are you going to do?â Yuan Hui asked worriedly.
âUncle, donât worry. Iâm going to take a look at the business. As Iâm all acting, I have to act better. If I go during the day, Iâll expose myself,â Ning Yue said.
âEven if you go to monitor business, you have to be careful,â Yuan Hui said.
When Ning Yue heard this, she couldnât help but laugh. âDonât worry, Iâll definitely protect myself. Donât forget that Iâm from the future. These ancient people canât think of taking advantage of me. Isnât it just a matter of minutes for me to deal with this group of ancient people?â
Ning Yue promised Yuan Hui that she would not put herself in danger.
Yuan Hui looked at Ning Yue in confusion, but since Ning Yue had already said so, he did not say anything else. He only instructed Ning Yue to be careful. âI wonât disturb you anymore. Iâll go back to my room to rest first.â
âWait a moment!â Ning Yue stopped Yuan Hui and took out some bottles.
âUncle, keep some of these things for self-defense,â Ning Yue said.
Yuan Hui looked at the things in Ning Yueâs hand and his heart warmed. âThank you.â
âWhy are you thanking me? Iâve already written the label on it and written everything on it. You have to be careful when you use it. Donât hurt yourself accidentally,â Ning Yue said with a smile.
âAlright, rest early when youâre done.â Yuan Hui took the things from Ning Yue and returned to his room with a smile.
After Ning Yue tidied up, she changed her clothes and put on the monkey mask. She tied her hair and left.
According to the emperor, his business was everywhere. It sounded quite large, but he did not know how it was.
Previously, the emperor had given her an address. He said that if she wanted to see the business, she would go to that place first.
Ning Yue followed the address to a place called Storm House.
It was unknown what this Storm House was for, but one could not tell from the outside.
Under the moonlight, she couldnât see how tall Storm House was, but she felt that it was very tall.
As she did not know the situation in Storm House, Ning Yue did not dare to shine her flashlight directly, afraid that she would be treated as a traitor.
