Chapter 1368: Wei Ting’s Return

Editor: Atlas Studios

Wei Liulang was stunned.

No way, she could tell…

The others looked at the City Lord Seal on the table.

Ghostfear pointed at it and said, “The City Lord Seal is clearly here. Why did Xie Jinnian lie? Does he want to use the Assassin Alliance to get rid of Xiahou Yi’s lackeys?”

Wei Qing hit the nail on the head. “I guess he just wants to live for two more days.”

Ghostfear was speechless.

Wei Liulang said, “At least he has some conscience and didn’t say that it’s in the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Wei Qing glanced at his brother. “It only takes two hours to go back and forth to the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

Wei Liulang opened his fingers and calculated. “Oh.”

Wei Qing added, “Besides, if the City Lord Seal was really in the Hundred Flowers Palace, Yun Lin would have stood up and pulled him down. Xie Jinnian is not so stupid.”

Wei Liulang stared at the City Lord Seal on the table innocently. “But the City Lord Seal is really here.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “This was an accident.”

It was precisely because it was an accident that even Xiahou Yi, the sly old fox, did not guess.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “Speaking of which, Steward Chang is the City Lord’s trusted aide. He will definitely be able to see Jiang Guanchao. The problem is, does Xiahou Yi really think that Jiang Guanchao will hand the City Lord’s relic to a steward? There’s no token or anything.”

Wei Qing paused. “Perhaps his goal is not the City Lord Seal.”

“It’s not the City Lord Seal?”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered and her eyebrows suddenly twitched. “Could it be…”

Wei Qing looked in the direction of the Assassin Alliance. “He wants to kill Jiang Guanchao.”

Wei Liulang gasped. “How dare he?!”

Indeed. Compared to why Xiahou Yi wanted to kill Jiang Guanchao, everyone was more concerned about how Xiahou Yi had the guts and confidence to kill Jiang Guanchao.

Wei Qing guessed, “The news of Jiang Guanchao’s injury should have leaked.”

Ghost Scar frowned and said, “Is there a traitor in the Assassin Alliance? Back then, Dad clearly instructed Chen Yu to keep his mouth shut?”

Wei Qing analyzed, “Back then, Jiang Guanchao asked the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion about Dad’s whereabouts. It’s obvious that he wanted follow Dad when he left the island. Now that Dad has returned unscathed and Jiang Guanchao has returned to the Assassin Alliance, but Jiang Guanchao hasn’t shown his face again, Xiahou Yi should have guessed that Jiang Guanchao was defeated and was injured. As long as he keeps an eye on Jiang Guanchao’s disciples and note if they bought any medicine on the island, he can infer how serious Jiang Guanchao’s injuries are.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement. “Second Brother is right. Jiang Guanchao must be very careful with his medicine. He won’t assign it to others. He will definitely get his most trusted disciples to buy it.”

Wei Liulang wringed his hands. “What a sly old fox!”

Wei Qing pondered for a moment and looked at Ling Yun. “I think Xie Jinnian’s idea is not bad. What do you think?”

Ling Yun said indifferently, “Anything is fine.”

Wei Liulang slapped the table. “That’s right! Weren’t we worried about how to take out the City Lord Seal reasonably just now? If the Assassin Alliance appears, no one can say that we killed the City Lord and took the City Lord Seal from him!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Two questions: First, how can we persuade Jiang Guanchao to cooperate with us? Second, how can we forge the heir’s document?”

Wei Qing smiled. “I can’t answer your first question for the time being, but the second question… Well, the person who can forge the document is here.”

Su Xiaoxiao followed Wei Qing’s gaze and turned around. She saw Wei Ting walking over under the moonlight. He was tired, but it was difficult to hide his valiant aura.

Su Xiaoxiao’s heart thumped.

Wei Ting stared at her deeply.

The galaxy fell into his eyes, reflecting her delicate figure.

“Little Seven!”

Wei Liulang, who did not know the ways of the world, decisively rushed over and interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between the couple.

He hugged Wei Ting. “Little Seven, you’re finally back! I missed you so much!”

Wei Ting muttered, “You… blocked my wife!”

Jing Yi took the opportunity to overtake him and come to Su Xiaoxiao.

The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth twitched.

The two of them really didn’t know the ways of the world!

Wei Liulang proclaimed, “Eldest Brother and Second Brother are on the island!”

Wei Ting said, “I saw them.”

Wei Liulang looked behind him. “Eh? Are you and Jing Yi the only ones back? Where are Su Mo, Su Xuan, and Su Li?”

Wei Ting said, “Su Xuan is still undergoing treatment. He might need the blood of the Su brothers later.”

Su Xiaoxiao remembered Granny Ghost’s initial plan. A bowl of blood was enough. Later on, not only did she call Su Mo over, but she also kept Su Mo and Su Li behind…

It seemed that Su Xuan’s situation was not optimistic.

As Wei Ting spoke, he kept looking at Su Xiaoxiao.

Wei Qing couldn’t stand it anymore. He stood up and said to Wei Liulang, “Sixth Brother, I suddenly have something to ask you. Come to my room.”

Wei Liulang was a little unwilling. “What can’t be said later? Little Seven just returned.”

You also know that Little Seven just returned… Wei Qing pulled this stupid brother away with a fake smile.

“I’ll go tell my mother.”

Ling Yun left too.

Ghostfear was not as blind as Wei Liulang. He also planned to leave.

Realizing that he had stood up after Ling Yun, he immediately explained seriously, “I’ll tell my father too!”

The two big bosses were taking turns to heal the Ghost Concubine.

Ling Yun left.

Ghostfear was walking in front of him!

“Miss, I’ll go make something for Young Master!”

Xing’er ran away with the rubbed stone.

Wei Ting looked at Jing Yi. “Aren’t you leaving?”

Jing Yi asked, “Why should I leave?”

Wei Ting muttered, “Unfilial son!”

Xing’er stuck her head out of the wall and asked with a smile, “Young Marquis, the water tank is out of water. Can you come over and help me get some well water?”

Jing Yi said bitterly, “Coming.”

Only the two of them, who had no seen each other for many days, were left in the courtyard.

Wei Ting had lost a lot of weight, and his edges were even colder. His eyes were more mature and decisive.

This was not the fruit of revenge, but the power that had grown over the years.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him and thought of her days in Apricot Flower Village. It suddenly felt like a lifetime ago.

Wei Ting stood in front of her and raised his calloused palm.

Su Xiaoxiao thought that he was going to touch her face and obediently handed him her head.

Wei Ting chuckled and pulled her into his arms. “Do you miss me?”

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression didn’t change. “No, then do you miss me?”

Wei Ting raised his eyebrows. “Oh, no.”

Su Xiaoxiao punched his chest.

“Hiss—”

Wei Ting held his chest and gasped.

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression changed. “What’s wrong?”

Wei Ting said in pain, “I’m poisoned… It’s best if my wife kisses me…”

Su Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded.

Did he forget to bring his face back after going out?!

Wei Ting couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her furious expression.

Su Xiaoxiao snorted. “Why are you still laughing?”

Wei Ting rubbed the top of her head. “Where’re the children?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “In the house.”

Wei Ting held her hand and entered the house with her. “Tell me about the recent events.”

Time was tight, so Su Xiaoxiao explained the information he had missed concisely.

Wei Ting had already seen the three young brats. At this moment, he was hugging his sleeping little fat daughter.

He pinched her chubby feet and reluctantly put them down. “Alright, I understand. Wait for my news.”

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned.

Wei Ting did not even bother to drink water. He turned around and was about to disappear into the night.

“Wei Ting!”

Su Xiaoxiao stopped him.

Wei Ting stopped and looked at her.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly pounced on him, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed him heavily on the lips.

“Interest.”

“You owe me.”

“The obligations a husband should fulfill… includes this!”

She was righteous, her eyes round.

Wei Ting lowered his head and said in a magnetic voice, “When I return from the Assassin Alliance… I’ll make up for the rest to my wife.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s bones went limp.
