After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 260

Shi Wenfu suddenly changed the subject, causing An Yuwei, who was crying, to pause.

She glanced at Lu Hui, who was standing beside her with a face full of anger, and said vaguely, "Although she knew about Xuanmen techniques earlier than me, I was personally taught by Teacher Lu."

"Moreover... when I arrived, I saw that An Jiuxi didn't intend to deal with that vengeful spirit; it seemed she was making some kind of deal."

"A deal?" Lu Hui's face darkened, and he turned to look at Shi Wenfu. "Haven't there been rumors lately that someone's been up to no good in Jiangnan? Could it be...?"

Before the other person could finish speaking, Shi Wenfu frowned and shook his head, "No."

Seeing his certainty, Lu Hui didn't say anything more.

However, I couldn't help but say a few more words.

"If the investigation uncovers anything, we need to deal with An Jiuxi properly."

Hearing this, An Yuwei was secretly delighted, but she still pretended to be a good younger sister. "Sister shouldn't be that kind of person. She even helped Director Zhang deal with the Wutong Mountain matter before. I believe she must be a good person."

"Perhaps what happened today is just something my sister hasn't figured out yet."

An Yuwei was implying to Shi Wenfu and Lu Hui that An Jiuxi's intentions were not pure.

Shi Wenfu's gaze swept over her.

A chill ran down An Yuwei's spine, making her shiver involuntarily!

Lu Hui, on the other hand, was rubbing his chin, seemingly deep in thought.

"Mr. Lu, why don't you take a look at An Yuwei's injuries first? I'll go check on the Jiangnan branch." Shi Wenfu really didn't want to waste any more time with the two of them.

He left those words behind, grabbed the documents, and hurried away.

An Yuwei glanced at the man's departing figure out of the corner of her eye, hesitating to speak.

"Say whatever you want."

Lu Hui looked up and realized that his newly accepted apprentice was very curious about Shi Wenfu.

"Teacher, is the Shi family very powerful in the capital?"

Although she followed Madam Xia to the capital, she still mentioned the Shi family.

Mrs. Xia always avoided the topic or gave a perfunctory answer.

It was as if the Shi family was some kind of taboo that couldn't be mentioned!

When Lu Hui heard her ask this, his gaze toward An Yuwei became somewhat wary. "The Shi family is the most powerful family in the capital. They currently have seven brothers, and their parents all passed away in an accident. They are the most obedient to the old man."

"Shi Wenfu, ranked fourth."

Seeing that the man didn't intend to continue, An Yuwei stopped asking questions.

She reached out her hand, allowing Lu Hui to use his spiritual energy to examine her injuries.

"It will take some time for all the meridians in your body to be opened. Once they are all opened, the power of your spiritual energy will be ten times stronger than it is today!"

An Yuwei's eyes flashed with joy.

He tried his best to maintain a calm and composed demeanor.

"That's good, at least my sister won't bully me anymore."

Seeing his little apprentice's submissive appearance, Lu Hui snorted coldly, "This matter, once we meet your older sister, your master will definitely help you get revenge!"

Thinking about Lu Hui's abilities, a hint of schadenfreude flashed in An Yuwei's eyes.

An Jiuxi!

This place will soon become your burial ground!

......

When Shi Wenfu arrived at the Jiangnan branch, he noticed the car parked at the entrance.

He squinted and recognized the car as belonging to the pair of partners from that day on Wutong Mountain.

Just as they were wondering what was going on, the branch manager greeted them with a smile and saw them out.

"We're still going to Shuiyunju. We'll bring the documents directly to Miss An. Director, please feel free to contact us by phone if you need anything."

Bai Pu grinned at the bureau chief, then pulled the expressionless person next to him into the car.

Shi Wenfu subconsciously moved aside and watched the car leave.

Only then did he approach the branch bureau chief.

"Oh my, isn't this the fourth son of the Shi family? I didn't expect you to actually come to Jiangnan. Is it also about that matter?"
