?Chapter 785: Chapter 348: Seeing Changyun Yuanlei Again Chapter 785: Chapter 348: Seeing Changyun Yuanlei Again Lu Youjiu listened, slightly startled, then turned to Changyun Qingshuang and asked:
“What’s going on?”
“Could there have been some kind of mishap?”
Changyun Qingshuang sighed helplessly, then complained:
“No mishap…”
“It’s just that my cousin has been guarded so strictly.
My uncles, knowing how close I am to her, fear any trouble and won’t let me near her.”
“I’ve even tried to gather information, but to no avail.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Youjiu’s brows knit together slightly, as he muttered to himself:
“Impossible to gather any information…”
Then, Lu Youjiu continued speaking to Changyun Yuanshuang:
“Then can you think of a way to send a message to Yuanshuang?”
Changyun Qingshuang shook her head after listening, then said:
“I’m afraid that’s not possible…”
“Currently, my uncles strictly guard her courtyard, and they simply don’t allow me any chance to see her.”
Just as Changyun Qingshuang finished speaking, Lin Jing suddenly interjected, asking her:
“What about the heir of the Lin Family?Have you seen him?”
“How is he now?”
Changyun Qingshuang turned her head towards Lin Jing, gave him a quick assessment, then replied:
“The Lin Family’s heir is the same, carefully guarded by my uncles, and his courtyard is next to my cousin’s, so they are very close, and I cannot approach him either.”
Lu Youjiu, having listened to what Changyun Yuanshuang had said, furrowed his brow even more.
Yet before Lu Youjiu could further inquire, Yan Wanfei curled his lip, spontaneously complaining:
“Your family guards so tightly, as if guarding against thieves.”
“So, there’s nobody who can freely come and go from that courtyard?”
Changyun Qingshuang thought for a moment, then said:
“There are…”
“Apart from my uncles and grandfather, it seems that only Yuanlei could freely enter or exit the courtyard.”
Hearing this, Yan Wanfei directly spoke to Changyun Qingshuang:
“Then why don’t you just ask Yuanlei to help pass on the message?
Wouldn’t that work?”
Changyun Qingshuang’s brow creased slightly as she shook her head and said:
“That probably won’t work.”
“Due to his alchemy talent, Yuanlei has been closely looked after by the family elders since he was young, and he rarely interacts with us.”
“Because we barely interact, even if we meet, we only greet each other and hardly speak.”
“Moreover…”
“Since he has been valued by the family, from a very young age, he has always been under the careful watch of the uncles, who almost always accompany him.”
“Those uncles, already wary of me due to this affair, would definitely become suspicious if I suddenly wanted to contact Yuanlei without any apparent reason.”
“Therefore, getting Yuanlei to convey a message is simply impossible.”
Yan Wanfei was shocked upon hearing this:
“Ah?”
“I had no idea Yuanlei was so pitiful, being controlled so tightly.
Does he not have any freedom at all?”
Changyun Qingshuang nodded and said:
“Pretty much…”
Yan Wanfei then asked again:
“So even if you wanted to give him a gift out of concern, it wouldn’t be allowed?”
Changyun Yuanshuang shook her head and said:
“It’s not exactly forbidden…”
“It’s just because of the special circumstances lately, and because I am different from them, fearing that I may act recklessly, they are like this.”
“Normally, our family is quite good.”
Hearing this, Lu Youjiu’s eyes suddenly lit up, then he asked Changyun Qingshuang:
“So, you mean you could bring something to Yuanlei?”
Changyun Qingshuang nodded and said:
“Yes.”
“However, even if I wanted to bring something to him, it would have to be under the watchful eyes of the elders, so, Brother-in-Law Lu, if you were thinking of sneaking something else in with it, that wouldn’t work.”
It seemed that Changyun Qingshuang had already guessed Lu Youjiu’s thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Lu Youjiu nodded gently and said:
“I am well aware of that…”
“I was thinking of having you bring something for Yuanlei that, upon seeing it, he would understand the meaning.”
“Then let him figure out a way to evade your uncles and come find you…”
“That would suffice.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei immediately perked up:
“Letting him come find you on his own, that’s a good plan!”
“Brother Lu, you take something that represents your identity and give it to Sister Qingshuang to bring back.”
Lu Youjiu shook his head and said:
“That won’t work…”
“Something representing my identity would be too conspicuous, and Qingshuang’s uncles would definitely recognize it.”
“Give me a moment to think…”
However,
just then, Lin Jing suddenly spoke up:
“If there was something, I actually do have an item that, once seen by Yuanlei, would certainly make him recognize my identity.”
“And it would also remain unnoticed by his elders.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Youjiu promptly turned to Lin Jing and asked:
“What is it?”
Lin Jing, hearing the question, directly took out a small jar for holding liquor from his Space Ring and handed it to Lu Youjiu.
Just as Lu Youjiu was about to reach for it, Yan Wanfei, quick as a flash, snatched it away first.
After seizing it, Yan Wanfei couldn’t help but mutter:
“Huh?
“Why is it so light?”
Having said that, Yan Wanfei unhesitatingly opened the jar’s seal.
Suddenly,
the rich aroma of the liquor instantly assaulted the senses.
Yan Wanfei, who was closest, immediately showed a look of intoxication, as if his soul had flown out.
????0.??
“Such fragrant liquor…”
Yan Wanfei couldn’t help but remark.
Just as he finished speaking, Holaw Three Rivers snatched the jar away from him,
quickly resealed it, then gave Yan Wanfei a kick.
