Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

The next day,

Yu Ru stayed in the computer room and continued monitoring. Now that there was no one around, she started talking to Shan Ci normally.

"Shanci, did you monitor Ming Sui again yesterday?"

"No, mom. If you say you won't monitor me, I'll be gone."

"Shanci, continue monitoring. I find it a little strange. I clearly asked the bodyguards to search the woman, but why did she take out a knife? She also untied all the ropes. Do you think there is a traitor among the bodyguards?"

"Yeah mom, what's going on?"

"Shanci, show me the surveillance footage of that woman just after she arrived at Ming Shisui's house."

"Good mother."

Soon, Shan Ci pulled up the surveillance footage of Xu Yuan bringing the white man to Ming Shisui's house that day and projected it on the big screen. Yu Ru leaned back in her chair, watching Xu Yuan's every move intently.

After watching for a long time, she stood up and pulled the mouse in front of her. With her other hand, she pressed a key on the keyboard. Xu Yuan's figure was completely magnified, until she was the only one on the screen. She noticed that Xu Yuan's hair was very thick, enough to hide a knife.

After thinking for a while, she said, "Shanci, this woman has a lot of hair. When she first came, her hair was tied up, but when she left, it was loose. I think she might have hidden a knife in her hair."

"Yes, mother, it is true now! She hid a knife in her hair. When everyone was asleep at night, she would rub her head against the table pillar to mess up her hair, and then the knife would come out."

"Yeah." Yu Ru nodded. "I'll ask the bodyguard to look at the surveillance footage from those nights and we'll know if that's the case."

Later, she arranged for the bodyguard to check the surveillance footage of the nights when Xu Yuan was tied up, and found that everything was true. Every night when it was quiet, Xu Yuan would rub against the rope everywhere as if she was covered with fleas. As she rubbed against the rope, her hair became loose, and the knife hidden in her hair fell out. She picked up the knife and slowly sharpened the rope.

Fly Country,

With the family in Ming Dynasty.

Wei Jiangshan was injured, and Wei Xingzhi was a child, with only one bodyguard by his side. In order to prevent any accidents from happening and not having enough people to handle them, Ming Shisui let Wei Jiangshan and Wei Xingzhi temporarily stay in her home to recuperate, and would let him leave when he was well enough to take a plane.

"Uncle Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi, it's time to eat." Ming Shisui entered the room carrying two large bowls of rice on a tray.

Wei Xingzhi saw it and immediately stood up to take it. "Teacher Ming, give it to me."

"Xiaozhi, it's not heavy. I'll put it on the table." Ming Shisui did not hand the tray to Wei Xingzhi, but put it directly on the table.

After putting the food away, she walked to the bedside, stood still, looked at Wei Jiangshan and said, "Uncle Xiaozhi, your right hand can't move now, let me feed you."

Wei Jiangshan's wound had been properly treated yesterday. Yun Jixing used his connections to get a doctor in the hospital to give him priority treatment. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time, and the wound did not get infected or have other bad symptoms. It was just that the knife pierced a little deep, bleeding a lot, and several stitches were needed. He had to take good care of the wound every day until the stitches were removed.

"Teacher Ming, thank you. Wei Xingzhi can feed me. You can go and do your own thing." Wei Jiangshan leaned against the head of the bed and responded calmly.

Wei Xingzhi had already started eating. He turned around, looked at Wei Jiangshan with a sly smile, and said, "Uncle, I'm starving. Teacher Ming will feed you. I want to eat too."

"Wei Xingzhi." Wei Jiangshan's face turned cold and his voice became deeper. "Teacher Ming is your teacher. Can you order your teacher to do things? Come here. Apologize to Teacher Ming."

"Oh..." Being scolded like this, the corners of Wei Xingzhi's mouth drooped immediately. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, lowered his head and walked to Ming Shisui and bowed, and said in a low voice: "Teacher Ming, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Teacher Ming, you should go eat too, I'll feed my uncle."

"Use respectful words." Wei Jiangshan suddenly reminded.

"Oh." Wei Xingzhi responded, bowed to Ming Shisui again, and repeated what he had just said, but this time he changed "you" to "you".

"Xiao Zhi..."

Ming Shisui wanted to comfort him, but Wei Jiangshan spoke again, "Teacher Ming, thank you for your trouble. Go and do your own thing. Wei Xingzhi is a kid who cannot be spoiled, otherwise he will easily get carried away."

"Oh……"

After Ming Shisui left, Wei Xingzhi reluctantly picked up the spoon and sat down beside the bed to feed Wei Jiangshan.

"Wei Xingzhi, what's with that expression on your face?" Wei Jiangshan stared at him.

"Hehe..." Wei Xingzhi raised his head and forced a smile, "Uncle, how can I dare to have any expression? Let's eat, ah..." He put a spoonful of rice to Wei Jiangshan's mouth.

"Xiaozhi." Wei Jiangshan softened his tone and said without eating, "I know what you are thinking. Don't try to match people up or act like a matchmaker. Feelings should be left to nature. Don't do this kind of thing no matter where you are or who you are with. Once someone's relationship breaks down, they may resent you."

Wei Xingzhi put down the bowl and spoon, leaned back and lay on the bed. He looked at the ceiling and said, "You are my uncle, how could you hate me?"

"You know I'm your uncle, but you're still trying to trick me. It's true that you like Teacher Ming, but you can't force her into our house just to see her more often. This is very immoral and disrespectful to Teacher Ming. What's more, I don't have much communication with Teacher Ming, and you're always like this, which makes us very embarrassed."

Wei Xingzhi turned his head to look at Wei Jiangshan, and like a caterpillar, he crawled forward a little. "Uncle, you haven't had much contact with Teacher Ming, but you've had quite a bit, right? You don't like her at all? Or do you think Teacher Ming is not good? If you don't find someone you like quickly, your grandparents will arrange blind dates for you, and you'll be embarrassed. By then, you'll be an older bachelor, and your grandparents will ask you to get married directly, which will be even more embarrassing."

Wei Jiangshan looked away from the window with a slightly awkward expression, "Teacher Ming is an excellent person, but I don't have any feelings for her, so don't match us up randomly. It's not your turn to worry about blind dates, we can talk about it when the day really comes."

“Tsk, tsk, tsk…” Wei Xingzhi shook his head.
