Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

In a courtyard of the old house, Yun Zhonghe, Xiang Huiyun and others sat together. No one spoke, just waiting quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the Yun family bodyguards came to them, bringing a man with his hands and feet tied with ropes.

"Old man, old lady, the man has been caught, it's him."

When the two elders saw the man, they sighed unhappily and turned their eyes away.

Seeing this, their eldest son Yun Wenzhi knew that the two old people were angry and could not deal with the man in front of them. He quietly suggested to his wife and two sons and one daughter to say something nice to appease the two old people.

Afterwards, he instructed his bodyguards, "Ah Jun, Ah Yi, find another rope and tie up his legs. Don't tie it too tightly or the blood circulation will be cut off and amputation will be required. Just make sure he can't run away."

"Yes, sir." Ajun and Ayi responded in unison.

The man who was arrested was originally a bodyguard of the Yun family. It was unknown when he defected to Yun Liuyi. He was arrested today because someone discovered that he tried to use unconventional means to break into the study of Yun Zhonghe and Xiang Huiyun, which led to the subsequent scene.

After the man was tied up, Yun Wenzhi stared at him in silence for a long time before he spoke, "A Ping, you have worked in our family for many years. We all find it incredible that you could do such a thing today. If you tell the truth, we can give you a lighter punishment. If you refuse to talk, we can only handle the matter impartially."

The man called Aping had a tense face and stared at Yun Wenzhi and the two elders with unspeakable sadness in his eyes.

After a while, he spoke in a trembling voice, "Sir, I'm sorry, but I can't help it. I will tell you everything I know, and then I will give myself an understanding. I don't have the face to live in this world anymore."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wenzhi waved his hand and said, "A Ping, don't get excited. Tell me first, who asked you to do these things? What's going on?"

"He is the chairman of Ruixiang Group..."

This result was beyond everyone's expectations. The chairman of Ruixiang Group had been doing business with the Yun family for many years and they had always gotten along well. Moreover, the chairman was a fairly open-minded person.

They thought that the person who ordered this must be Yun Liuyi. He had completely exposed himself during this period of time and put his relationship with the Yun family in a hostile state. It was hard not to suspect him.

Yun Liuyi installed a bug in the old house of the Yun family a few years ago, but it was discovered by Yun Jixing and secretly removed. In addition, all the monitoring devices he installed were either dismantled or modified by Yun Jixing.

He didn't know about the sudden situation that had occurred in the Yun family's old house, but he knew that from now on, no matter what went wrong in the Yun family, he would be suspected.

But he had a good attitude and could even sit in front of his son and drink tea leisurely.

"Yun Quan, Ah Ping has been arrested. He is so useless. He said so much when he first came here, but he was arrested before he even got close to the door."

Yun Quan stroked his dog and replied without looking up, "How did the man deal with it?"

"I don't know, but he was arrested anyway. The Yun family is kindhearted and righteous, so they probably won't deal with him privately. He will probably be sent to the police station. You can see if they can get him out by then."

"Why take it out? Wouldn't it be easier to find another one?"

"But it's hard to find another face like that. That face is still useful."

"It's up to you. Wait until he goes in. I'm tired. I'm leaving now."

Yun Quan said this casually, then immediately stood up and walked out with his dog.

Yun Liuyi stared at his departing back with an unfathomable expression. When he disappeared from his sight, he took out his cell phone and made a call. After a few words, he hung up and started smoking.

Just as he was about to light up his cigarette, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, who looked to be of a certain age, came up to him and asked, "Sir, what can I do for you?"

Yun Liuyi took a deep puff of the cigarette and exhaled. His whole body was instantly submerged in the smoke and his face turned pale and unclear.

He let himself be drowned in the smoke and turned to look at the man, "A Ming, find a chance to ask the aunt who takes care of the young master's two dogs for the dogs, and then throw the dogs away. Remember, throw them in a remote place in the next town and take off the dog tags."

"Yes, sir."

"Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest."

"Yes, thank you sir."

Just as the man was about to leave, Yun Liuyi suddenly thought of something and waved at him, calling him back, "A Ming, take off the dog tag and keep it safe, and give it to me. Also, before you abandon the dog, find two people to watch over it and make sure nothing happens to it. If the two dogs wander around and can't find anything to eat, feed them and be careful not to let them die by accident."

"Yes, sir."

……

The Yun family has been troubled recently because of Ah Ping's affairs. All members of the family have to help deal with it, and everyone is busy.

Although busy, he still had to do other things he had promised. Yun Jixing had promised Yu Ru that he would take her out to play, and today was the day for their outing.

It rained a few times today, it was cloudy, the air was a little chilly, and there was a gentle breeze, which was quite suitable for outdoor activities. Yun Jixing planned to take Yu Ru to camp and fish during the day, and then go to Xi Yizai's house in the afternoon for a simple gathering, and by the way, let him and Jun Wuxia meet Yu Ru and send them an engagement invitation.

The place where they went camping was a small town in another city. The weather here was similar to that in Hwaseong, very comfortable, except that it had just rained, so the ground was a little wet, making it dirty to walk on.

The destination was in front of a small lake. Perhaps because it had rained not long ago, the sky was clear and bright, with only a few grayish clouds like swimming fish hanging sparsely in the distance.

The soil by the lake is soft and moist. Due to the presence of these broken pieces, a faint earthy smell permeates the air nearby. Fortunately, the ground a little distance behind is solid because it is often trampled by people. The plants growing on it bring a fresh scent of grass to the environment, reducing the fishy smell.

Perhaps because of the arrival of spring, everything is flourishing. The flowers and grass here are dense and lush, with soft roots and rich colors. Now there is a gust of wind, and the weeds are swaying with the breeze. There are clear bird calls accompanying the dancing of the grass, and the sound is very loud, as if it is speaking for this silent nature, like the heartbeat of the world.

Such rich natural vitality is a rare panacea for all five senses. It seems like the response of earthly beings to the call of heaven and earth. Yu Ru enjoys such natural tranquility and peace.

She stood by the pond and looked quietly at the rippling surface of the lake, while Yun Jixing was directing the bodyguards to set up the tent.

This place is quite remote, so he and Yu Ru brought five bodyguards, three men and two women, for protection and to help with odd jobs.

"Long Legs, Swallow, and Little Calf, you three set up the tent. After that, go help Sister Ping and Sister Ju. Sister Ping and Sister Ju, you guys prepare the food for the picnic. Fry the steak first. My wife doesn't like lemon or garnishes. While you're heating the steak, cook the Tremella soup as you would Chinese food."

"Okay, Master."

After assigning tasks to the bodyguards, Yun Jixing moved a chair behind Yu Ru and let her sit down.

"Aru, please sit down. I will put your hair up for you."
