Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

"Xiaohua, I found some blueprints from the traces left by my third uncle. They look like they are for some kind of building." Wu Xie failed to get through to Xie Yuchen, so he could only leave him a voice message.

Xie Yuchen was holding a wine glass, sitting on a leather sofa, and in the dark, he was answering the phone that kept ringing. When the phone stopped ringing, Xie Yuchen picked it up and listened to the message Wu Xie left him.

"Write a letter to the Huo family. Wu Xie has a style bomb in his hand."

A figure behind Xie Yuchen moved for a moment, then returned to calm.

"Mrs. Huo, your time is up." Xie Yuchen exerted force with his hands, and the goblet in his hand suddenly burst.

After Wu Xie did not get a reply from Xiaohua, he and Fatty studied the drawings they found for a long time and could only conclude that it was a building drawing or an internal structure drawing.

They read it over and over again, trying to find more clues from these simple lines, but in the end they found nothing.

"What kind of building is this? Why is it so weird!" The fat man frowned and scratched his head.

"I don't know either, but it looks very complicated. Maybe we need professionals to interpret these drawings." Wu Xie sighed.

"But where can we find such a person?" said the fat man helplessly.

"Don't worry about it for now, just put these drawings away. Let's wait for Xiaohua to reply." Wu Xie said as he carefully folded the drawings and put them in his backpack.

The two looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts and expectations. They knew that there must be a huge secret hidden behind these drawings, and this secret might change their fate.

The next morning, just after dawn, Wu Xie received a message from a stranger, saying that he had several of the same drawings as Wu Xie had, and invited Wu Xie to Yanjing to discuss the mystery of the drawings together.

After Wu Xie and Fatty sorted out their things, they set out on their journey to Yanjing again. However, before they found the person with the blueprint, the Huo family in Yanjing came to them and expressed their intention to buy the style thunder in Wu Xie's hands.

Wu Xie said he needed time to think about it and promised to give a reply tomorrow. The Huo family knew that Wu Xie had a special status and was the only son of the Wu family, so they naturally did not dare to harm him easily. If Wu Xie encountered any accident in Yanjing, Wu Sansheng and Wu Erbai would definitely come to question him.

"Why do you think that old lady of the Huo family is so obsessed with this kind of thunder even though she is already old?" Fatty and Wu Xie sat together on the sofa in Fatty's shop, their eyes focused on the thunders on the coffee table, their hearts full of doubts.

"Let's go to Xiaohua's house later. Xiaohua has many talented people under him, and they must be much more capable than us." Wu Xie could only hope that Xiaohua was at home at this time.

Wu Xie agreed as he said so, rolled up the drawings and stuffed them into his backpack, then he went out and took a taxi straight to Xie's house.

As soon as Wu Xie arrived at the gate of Xie's house, he saw Xie Yuchen coming out of the gate, "Xiaohua, Xiaohua."

Xie Yuchen smiled faintly with his back to Wu Xie, then slowly turned around, revealing a look of surprise at the right moment, "Wu Xie, why did you come back so soon? Did you find any clues?"

Wu Xie trotted over and came to Xie Yuchen breathlessly. He supported his knees with his hands, gasped heavily, and tried to calm his rapid breathing: "Xiaohua, didn't you see the message I left you?" He said while gesturing with his hands.

Xie Yuchen's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, but his face showed a look of surprise: "No, did you send the wrong number? My phone hasn't received any message yet."

Wu Xie's eyes widened and he hurriedly explained: "Impossible! I called you for a long time, but no one answered at first, and then the phone was turned off, so I left you a voice message." After saying that, he quickly took out his Nokia phone and began to look through the call records one by one.

Finally, he found the undialed call and excitedly pointed at the phone screen and said to Xie Yuchen: "Found it! Xiaohua, look, this is your phone number!" He was so excited that he almost jumped up.

Xie Yuchen raised his eyebrows, glanced at the phone screen, then looked at Wu Xie, and sighed helplessly: "Wu Xie, this number is not mine, where did you get it from?"

Wu Xie was stunned, and couldn't believe his ears. He looked at the number on the phone screen again and muttered to himself: "No way... Is this really not your number?"

"Wu Xie, who gave you this cell phone number?" Xie Yuchen asked carefully.

"This is my number from my third uncle... You're such a good uncle, you're trying to trick me on this." Wu Xie suddenly remembered that he saw this number in a phone book at his third uncle's house.

Xie Yuchen patted Wu Xie'e's shoulder and said, "Maybe Uncle Wu was in a hurry and might have heard it wrong."

"By the way, Wu Xie, is there something you want to talk to me about?" Xie Yuchen suddenly suggested that Wu Xie came to him, probably not for the phone number.

"Oh, yes. Xiaohua, I would like to ask you to help me find a master who can understand the blueprints. I have several pattern mines here. Fatty and I just arrived in Yanjing when we were stopped by the Huo family. The old lady in their family wanted to buy the pattern mines from me for a large sum of money." Wu Xie pulled Xie Yuchen to a place away from the people around him.

"I have heard about the old lady of the Huo family purchasing Yangshilei a long time ago. I also heard that the old lady of the Huo family has a daughter, who has disappeared since she went to the Xisha Islands." Xie Yuchen revealed another piece of news that Wu Xie did not know.

"It's Xisha again. Xie Lianhuan shared an identity with Uncle San in Xisha, and Aunt Wenjin also changed her name after Xisha. It seems that the previous generation of Jiumen had their incidents in Xisha." Wu Xie suddenly remembered that all the people in Xisha had a close connection with Jiumen, either their own daughters or their own children. However, no one was able to come back alive, or never appeared in the sight of Jiumen again.

Wu Xie only knew that his third uncle was the only person who was still active in the vision of those behind the scenes after the Paracel Islands incident.

"So are you going to agree to the old lady of the Huo family's request?" Xie Yuchen suddenly asked.

Wu Xie pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I think that the old lady of the Huo family must know many unknown secrets, and she seems to value Yangshi Lei very much. Maybe we can use Yangshi Lei as bait to get some information from her that we don't have yet."

After hearing this, Xie Yuchen couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect you to have grown to this point. It's really impressive! However, compared with those old foxes, you are still too young. If you don't handle it carefully, not only will you not be able to obtain valuable clues, but you may also be counterattacked by them."
