When Wei Ji, the leader of the city lord's mansion, followed the news to find Chaoguilou, he went straight to the second floor, but he didn't expect to bump into his own young city lord as soon as he reached the second floor.

"Young City Master." Wei Ji cupped his hands and saluted.

Bai Lian glanced at him and then looked away bored.

"General Wei, what are you doing here?"

"Look for someone in the future." Wei Ji didn't seem to see Bai Lian's arrogance at all, he looked at Bai Lian without changing his expression.

Wei Ji was in his early thirties, and his appearance was handsome enough, but ten years ago when Ning'an City was in turmoil, he led the army to quell the chaos. Although he won the battle, his left cheek was slashed into a deep hole from the root of the ear to the jaw by the rebels. The deep bloody mouth has left a scar ever since.Not to mention ruining his original appearance, coupled with his stern face all the year round, it made that face even more terrifying.

Although it doesn't scare Bai Lian, it always makes Bai Lian feel inexplicably uncomfortable, so Bai Lian doesn't like Wei Ji.But Wei Ji is his father's confidant after all, and Wei Ji is indeed outstanding in ability, so even if Bai Lian doesn't like him, sometimes he has to forcefully talk to him on occasions.

"Who?" Wei Ji obviously came to the room behind him, could it be because of the man in plain clothes?Bai Lian frowned, and looked at Wei Ji warily.

"A woman named Ah Qing." Wei Ji didn't know why Bai Lian's sudden hostility came, but he still answered truthfully.

Hearing this, Bai Lian felt relieved, he nodded casually, and said to Wei Ji: "Is that woman in this room?"

"According to the news, yes." Wei Ji replied.

"Come in." Bai Lian glanced at Wei Ji, then turned and entered the room.

The atmosphere in the wing room was still tense, Bai Lian's attendants surrounded Lin Yu and the two of them, but they consciously stayed ten feet away from Lin Yu, and no one dared to step forward.

As soon as Bai Lian entered the room, he was chilled by Lin Yu's cold eyes.

Bai Lian's complexion also quickly darkened, no matter how shocked Lin Yu was, Bai Lian had been domineering in Ning'an City for many years, and once he was so despised by others, he couldn't help feeling angry.

"Is that the woman?" Bai Lian sneered, looked at Ah Qing, and said to Wei Ji behind him.

Wei Ji walked out from behind Bai Lian, glanced at Ah Qing, and nodded.

Lin Yu frowned.

Ever since Ah Qing saw Wei Ji, her face turned pale instantly, she subconsciously stepped back a few steps, and began to tremble uncontrollably in fear.

"Miss Ah Qing, the city lord is here to invite you." Wei Ji said.

Ah Qing trembled more and more, and even started to sob uncontrollably.

"Ah Qing?" Lin Yu looked at Ah Qing who suddenly became abnormal with some puzzlement.

Suddenly there was a commotion outside the door.

A plainly dressed old couple pushed away the attendants standing at the door, and rushed into the room crying.

It was the couple next door who went out early this morning.

The old woman hugged Ah Qing, who was pale in the room, and cried bitterly, while the old man threw herself at Wei Ji's feet, knelt down, and cried to Wei Ji: "My lord, we are only one daughter. , if something goes wrong, how can the two of us live..."

"It's her blessing to be chosen by the city lord." Wei Ji looked down at the old man kneeling at his feet, his expression indifferent to the point of cruelty.

"grown ups……"

"Old Wu." Wei Ji interrupted again: "I don't have much patience, and the city lord's patience is even less."

His tone was calm, but full of understatement and chill: "Even if you kill someone, it's okay."

When the old man heard this, the blood on his face faded instantly, and he looked at Wei Ji with boundless despair in his eyes.

"My lord!" Er, his forehead hit the ground again, almost weeping blood.

Lin Yu stood aside, watching this scene calmly.

At least Bai Lian thought so.Until Wei Ji suddenly raised his sword and stabbed at the old man at his feet, the next moment, the edge of the sword was deflected by a small object.

The small object was bounced and fell to the ground, it was a piece of broken jade.

Bai Lian had seen this piece of broken jade before, or had seen this piece of jade, it was once worn on Lin Yu's waist, the jade was shiny and moist, it was really top grade.

He turned his head to look at Lin Yu, and the nine-like jade pendant on Lin Yu's waist happened to be missing a corner.

It was not indifference.

Bai Lian stood aside, looked at Lin Yu, and suddenly smiled silently.

"Ah Qing, have you been chosen by the City Lord Ning'an?" Looking at the current situation, Lin Yu recalled what Fuxuan had told him that the City Lord Ning'an would favor a woman in half a year.

Ah Qing had recovered from the extreme fear, and nodded slightly to Lin Yu.

Things suddenly became complicated.Bai Lian wanted to snatch him back to the city lord's mansion, Wei Ji wanted to take Ah Qing back to the city lord's mansion, Lin Yu just thought for a moment, and felt that he still couldn't leave him alone.If he wants to protect Ah Qing, he must also protect the old woman and the elderly present, and he just looked at it, and there are about half a hundred people from Bai Lian and those brought by Wei Ji. It is indeed a bit difficult to retreat with three people without revealing his status as a monk.

But it's not impossible.Lin Yu observed the arrangement of personnel in every direction in the wing room.

Just as he was looking for the weakest place in the room, he suddenly heard Bai Lian's voice beside him.

"If you come with me, I will let them go."

Hearing this, Lin Yu looked at Bai Lian who had found a place to sit down in the wing room and was taking a cup of tea from his subordinates, with a gloomy expression.

Bai Lian took a sip of tea unhurriedly, stared at him with a half-smile, and said, "How is it?"

Hearing that, Wei Ji's already serious face became even colder: "Young City Master, this matter..."

"General Wei." Bai Lian interrupted Wei Ji: "This matter is up to me."

"Young City Lord..."

"I will break up with my father." Bai Lian stood up, his eyes were a little domineering due to anger.

"Can you?"

Wei Ji stood in front of Bai Lian, he looked into Bai Lian's eyes without saying a word, Bai Lian raised his head slightly, and looked at him without giving an inch.

After a long time, Wei Ji finally lowered his gaze as if giving in, bowed his hands to Bai Lian, and said, "Yes."

Bai Lian sneered.

He turned his head and said to Lin Yu who had been watching the good show for a long time: "How is it?"

Bai Lian looked at Lin Yu, who had always looked calm, and Lin Yu answered that he already had a conclusion in his mind, and he asked this question just to tease Lin Yu.

He originally planned to wait until Lin Yu refused to act forcefully, but Lin Yu thought about it and said "yes".

Bai Lian raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Mr. Lin." Ah Qing broke away from her mother's arms, ran to Lin Yu's side, grabbed Lin Yu's sleeve, and said eagerly.Although she wanted to live, she never thought about letting someone else die for her.

"Ah Qing, if my apprentice comes back, don't worry about him." Lin Yu said to A Qing.

"Young Master Lin..."

"It's okay." Lin Yu interrupted Ah Qing, he lowered his voice, and said to Ah Qing in a slightly reassuring way: "I have my own escape route."

Ah Qing still wanted to say something, but she suddenly met Lin Yu's disapproving eyes. She thought of Lin Yu's seemingly good identity, and shut her mouth by mistake.

"Let's go." Lin Yu pulled back his sleeves and said to Bai Lian.

There was still an expression of surprise on Bai Lian's face, he smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Go." He said to the people in the wing room.

Bai Lian had already spoken, the attendants at the door spread out to both sides, Lin Yu walked out of the wing before Bai Lian.

Lin Yu suddenly stopped.

Everyone froze, and the atmosphere froze again.

"Xiao Er." Lin Yu looked at the shop Xiao Er in the corner and called out.

"Guest...Guest officer?" Hearing the call, the waiter in the shop instantly turned bitter, and walked towards Lin Yu tremblingly, facing Bai Lian's gaze.

"Where's my broken silver? Why hasn't it been delivered yet?" Lin Yu looked at the waiter who was about to cry, and asked with a serious face. "Hurry up, I'm leaving."

The second senior brother told him that it was not easy to earn money, but it was his apprentice's money, let alone wasting it at will.My apprentice has always been very close to my heart, and I should be considerate and considerate of him occasionally, Lin Yu thought thoughtfully.

Er, seeing that the shop waiter hadn't moved yet, he couldn't help urging him again.

The second shopkeeper: "..."

Bai Lian: "..."

Ah Qing who was crying: "... hiccup"
