Where Is Bella Bell Going Tonight?
"That's excellent!" Su Li was extremely happy upon hearing this. She had grain, Xiao Zetian had soldiers, and both of them had money — their confidence was absolute!
Su Li carefully opened Xiao Yun's letter and read it. It said that Xiao Yun had brought along a jianghu expert — the same Bai Piwu who had previously disguised himself to steal the clown Chou.
With Bai Piwu around, Xiao Yun could disguise himself as different identities — men, women, old, young — in every place he visited. This way, no one would suspect that Xiao Zetian's men were buying up granaries everywhere.
Xiao Yun said that Bai Piwu had already taught him the basics of disguise, and Bai Piwu himself was already on his way back to Haizi Village.
"When Bai Piwu returns, have him teach you how to disguise yourself as a man to hide your female identity at Wutong Academy," Xiao Zetian said.
Su Li nodded, feeling very intrigued. Disguise techniques were an amazing skill from ancient novels. She was very curious and eager to learn disguise skills from Bai Piwu.
Su Li continued reading the letter. Xiao Yun was quite the chatterbox, writing at length. Su Li noticed he frequently mentioned a girl named Luo Luo, so she asked Xiao Zetian, "Who is this Luo Luo?"
Xiao Zetian recalled and then remembered the little girl. He said, "She's an orphan adopted by the organization, picked up by Xiao Yun. This time on the mission, Xiao Yun brought the little girl along to lower the enemy's guard."
Su Li nodded, thinking it made sense. Generally, people wouldn't be so suspicious of someone traveling with a child.
After finishing the letter, Su Li suddenly felt light as Xiao Zetian scooped her up horizontally. She shyly said, "Put me down quickly! If someone sees this when we go out, what will they think!"
Xiao Zetian smiled mischievously, "My lady, you've worked hard today; it's only right for your husband to see to you before bed."
Saying that, he carried Su Li and swiftly returned to the room like a gust of wind.
Meanwhile, Li Yanhao lay in bed, thinking about how to deal with Dean Zhang. He reached out but found Xiao Yun wasn't there, feeling lonely like snow. Since he couldn't sleep, he decided to go out for a walk.
Shortly after Li Yanhao stepped outside, he saw Lingdang's figure flash past the door and disappear. Li Yanhao thought to himself, "It's late at night — what is Lingdang going out for?"
Curious, Li Yanhao softened his steps and followed to take a look.
Lingdang went out of the house and walked to a nearby clearing's bushes. She rummaged through the bushes to pull out a jar and opened it, mumbling, "Today I brought food for Zhang Zhaocai. Why hasn't he come to take it?"
Lingdang was just wondering when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. Turning around, she saw Li Yanhao walking toward her.
Li Yanhao saw Lingdang holding the jar, which contained untouched food.
Li Yanhao suddenly felt a bit sad. Why was no one thinking of bringing him food?
"Little Lingdang, are you here to take care of your little friend again?" Li Yanhao walked over and tapped the jar, "He hasn't eaten it — the food is still untouched."
"That shouldn't be," Lingdang placed the jar on the ground, looking very puzzled.
Usually, Zhang Zhaocai came to collect food very regularly, but he hadn't shown up since yesterday.
"Maybe he's tired of the food, or maybe he's eating something else at home," Li Yanhao scratched his head.
Lingdang immediately dismissed that idea: "Impossible. His father and stepmother abuse him every day. He doesn't get enough to eat at home... Could something have happened to him?"
