Looking at Zhuo Yi who was lying quietly on the bed with his eyes closed and still in a coma, the Zhuo family sister was originally so frightened that she opened her mouth wide and was about to scream, but after Qing Ning's skillful and professional operation and After soothing her softly, her high heart finally slowly fell back into her stomach.

She sat quietly by the bed and guarded her only biological brother. She stared at Zhuo Yi's slightly pale face with a pair of beautiful big eyes without blinking. She silently prayed in her heart that God would bless her brother and never let anything happen to him. OK!

"Sister Qing Ning, do you think my brother will really wake up as soon as you said?" Zhuo's sister couldn't help but ask, her voice full of worry and anxiety.

Qing Ning gently stroked Zhuo's sister's hair and comforted her: "Don't worry, little sister, your brother has just taken the pills I specially prepared. The injuries on his body are not serious. It's just that he was forced to do it because he hasn't recovered yet." I just used a lot of force and was exhausted. Now I just need to rest for a while and I'll wake up naturally!"

The sister of the Zhuo family stared at Qing Ning with trust. In her clear eyes, the person in front of her was not only the benefactor who saved the lives of the two brothers and sisters, but also a person worthy of trust.

At this moment, Ye Zhao was also watching Qing Ning silently. This was the first time that he had looked at this woman with peerless appearance and outstanding temperament so closely and carefully. Judging from the powerful strength she displayed, this person must have unique and unpredictable skills. Without such ability, it would never be possible to easily take them away from the city lord's mansion unharmed.

However, by observing her words and deeds, Ye Zhao was keenly aware that she seemed to have no intention of getting involved in this dispute.

When he thought of the mysterious treasure map that even the city lord paid special attention to, as well as the part of the Zhuo family's treasure map that still had no news, he couldn't help but feel strong curiosity in his heart. What secrets and values ​​does this treasure map hide? Now only by finding this key treasure map in the hands of the Zhuo family can the entire mystery be revealed.

And only by possessing that precious treasure map can they get a few clues, so that they can ensure that the treasure will not easily fall into the hands of others.

At this moment, Ye Zhao's gaze became hesitant as he stared at Qing Ning, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.

"Does Mr. Ye have something he can't tell?" Qing Ning, who was delicate and thoughtful, instantly caught the strange look he cast and couldn't help but feel curious.

"I wonder if Miss Qing Ning can lend me a moment to speak?" Ye Zhao asked softly.

"No problem!" Qing Ning agreed readily, and followed closely towards the courtyard. At this time, the people who were lying all over the place had disappeared. It was obvious that the place had just undergone a cleaning.

"I wonder what Mr. Ye is doing?" After the two of them stood still, Qing Ning took the lead and asked.

"Actually, Ye just wants to take the liberty of asking the girl, do you know the whereabouts of the third treasure map?" Ye Zhao said his question straight to the point. For some reason, he always had an indescribable intuition deep in his heart - the woman in front of him must know something inside, especially something related to the treasure and the treasure map.

Qing Ning was secretly surprised, why was this person so sure that she knew the whereabouts of the treasure map? However, it is undeniable that this person is really smart, and she does know where the treasure map is, but she can't reveal it to him.

Just because from his eyes, Qing Ning clearly noticed that he was not completely coveted for the treasure map and the treasures hidden in it.

So she pretended to be ignorant and said: "I don't know the exact location of the treasure map. But from what I can see, since this map has been kept in the Zhuo family for a long time, and it is such an important thing, the Zhuo family master did not inform him My legitimate son and legitimate daughter, is it very likely that she is hidden in a secret room somewhere? Of course, this is just my personal speculation."

Naturally, Qing Ning will not tell the other party the true whereabouts of the treasure map. After all, it is difficult to trust someone who is unclear in front of him.

Hearing Qing Ning's words, Ye Zhao's face did not show the slightest surprise or suspicion. He chose to trust what she said without hesitation.

Seeing Ye Zhao fall into silence and staring thoughtfully into the distance, Qing Ning silently turned around and walked into the room. At this moment, Zhuo Yi was still in a coma, lying quietly on the bed.

However, in fact, the reason why Qing Ning deliberately misled Ye Zhao and guided him to focus on the Zhuo family mansion was actually out of consideration for protecting the Zhuo brothers and sisters.

On the day she rescued Zhuo Yi, Qing Ning accidentally noticed a handkerchief he was carrying. As far as she knew, the handkerchief was a precious gift from his mother.

More importantly, when she accidentally opened her eyes, she was surprised to find that the outline of an incomplete map vaguely appeared on the handkerchief. Soon after, she heard that someone was looking for treasure maps and the whereabouts of the treasures. Only then did she understand what the fragment of the map meant. However, she remained tight-lipped about it and did not reveal any information to anyone.

In this way, it may be regarded as a kind of special protection given to the Zhuo brothers and sisters.

Presumably Zhuo Yi is not completely unaware of this matter, right? If that were the case, how could he have the thought of giving that square handkerchief to me? I really didn't want to cause trouble again, so I decisively rejected the offer.

He really is a descendant of a wealthy family! Naturally, they will not be ignorant like those innocent novices who are not familiar with the world; on the contrary, they know how to protect themselves.

\"Um......\"

Zhuo Yi, who was still in a comatose state, was gradually waking up at this moment. When he first woke up, his body was still a little limp, but the moment his eyes touched Qing Ning, his whole body immediately became extremely excited.

\"Okay, now that you've woken up, let's rest for a while. Your sister has been worried about you.\"

Hearing Qing Ning's words, Zhuo Yi immediately regained his composure, turned to look at his worried sister beside him, his eyes became extremely gentle, and he gently stroked her hair and said, "Brother is fine. Sister, there is no need to worry."

\"Yeah, as long as my brother is safe and sound, that's fine.\"

Like a cute kitten, the little girl rubbed her brother's warm and generous palm with attachment, her eyes full of dependence and attachment to her brother. Because the man in front of her is not only her brother who is connected by blood, but also the most important and cherished person in her life now. Her parents have passed away, and now she only has her brother as a relative.

Just as the brother and sister were immersed in the tranquility and warmth, a rush of footsteps suddenly broke the silence in the room. It turned out that it was Ouyang Jingjing who broke in like a storm.

"Is Zhuo Yi awake? The situation is urgent. We have to leave this place immediately! This is no longer a safe place." Ouyang Jingjing said anxiously.

"Miss Ouyang is fine. I'm awake now. I'm thinking of you!" Zhuo Yi responded quickly.

"That's very good. Without further ado, please quickly pack your luggage. In half an hour, we must leave immediately." After Ouyang Jingjing explained the task concisely, she turned around and left, taking the luggage with her. He closed the door and left the brother and sister alone.

After Ouyang Jingjing and Qing Ning walked out of the room, the brother and sister looked at each other with complicated and unspeakable emotions in their hearts...

Qing Ning raised the corners of her mouth slightly, with a hint of cunning in her eyes, looking at Ouyang Jingjing with a half-smile.

"Okay, tell me, where did you go after disappearing for so long?" Qing Ning blinked and said in a deliberately long tone, "I guess... you must have gone to the City Lord's Mansion to gather information. Right?"

In fact, there is no need to ask, she knows it very well. Based on her understanding of Ouyang Jingjing, the other party will never miss any opportunity to obtain key information. Especially at such a critical moment, it is even more impossible to sit idle and do nothing.

And now that they are back in this place, it means that there must be a big action waiting for them to participate in it!

After all, an experienced and thoughtful person like her likes to prepare everything in advance and be prepared for a rainy day. Only by considering all possibilities can we be able to deal with problems with ease! That's why she dared to guess Ouyang Jingjing's whereabouts just now so confidently.

"It seems Ning Ning understands me. Well, I said, I did go to the city lord's mansion just now, and I saw the city lord furious. After the man who led the team just returned, he was like a dog wagging its tail begging for mercy. He just flattered the city lord, and at the same time he didn't forget to add fuel to the fire and said a lot of bad things out of nothing. The poisoned man also ran back to the city lord's mansion to bring in reinforcements. I'm afraid we have become the same now. It’s a big worry and a thorn in his flesh.”
