The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady Chapter 80

Chapter 80

80 What Are You Hiding From Me?

When w.a.n.g Mingjiang heard that his adoptive parents were still alive, his eyes immediately lit up.

“Actually, it’s not just your adoptive parents. Your sister is still alive. It’s just that the matter with her husband’s family is very complicated. It’ll be better if she continues to fake her death and lives in another ident.i.ty!” Minister Wu looked at w.a.n.g Mingjiang and explained.

w.a.n.g Mingjiang was surprised and delighted to hear that his sister was still alive. His eyes turned red.

“Why-why have you never told me this?”

Minister Wu looked at w.a.n.g Mingjiang and explained, “You were resistant to us from the beginning. Later on, after I brought you home, you became a different person. You either ran out by yourself or ignored us. You didn’t give us a chance to explain at all!”

w.a.n.g Mingjiang thought about it carefully. It seemed that he had never given them a chance. From the beginning to the end, he hated them.

w.a.n.g Mingjiang felt that it was because the appearance of Minister Wu and the others had ruined his peaceful life in the past, so he had never believed their words.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she understood something.

Speaking of which, the people who had secretly poisoned w.a.n.g Mingjiang had seen through this point. That was why they had always succeeded in scheming against w.a.n.g Mingjiang and the Wu family. In the end, they had reached the current situation step by step.

The only surprise was that Li Xiaoran interfered at Spring Love restaurant!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but think that could it be that the mastermind was actually angry at them for ruining their plan, so he found the a.s.sa.s.sins of the Seven Kills Gang to kill them?

Luo Cheng had the same thought, so he subconsciously glanced at Li Xiaoran.

“Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, why don’t we go out first?” Luo Han said, remembering something. “I have something to ask you guys. Can we talk in private?”

Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran nodded and followed Luo Han out of the hall to a side room to talk.

“Do you think the a.s.sa.s.sins are angry at you because of the Wu family?” Luo Han asked, voicing his thoughts.

Luo Cheng nodded. Then he said, “That’s what I think!”

“I have the same guess!” Li Xiaoran nodded and said.

Luo Han thought for a moment and said, “If that’s the case, then it’s not suitable for w.a.n.g Mingjiang to follow you! In a while, I’ll suggest that Minister Wu send w.a.n.g Mingjiang somewhere else to recuperate. Don’t get involved in what happens next. If we’re right, after w.a.n.g Mingjiang leaves you, you shouldn’t be in danger anymore!”

Luo Cheng didn’t respond but looked at Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said seriously, “I think there’s no problem! The reason I attacked previously was because I could tell that w.a.n.g Mingjiang was determined to die, so I wanted to help him! After all, it’s a human life! However, w.a.n.g Mingjiang also signed a contract with us previously. He has to pay for my husband’s jade pendant!”

As soon as she said this, Luo Cheng couldn’t help but laugh.

His wife was really thinking about that jade pendant all the time!

“Actually, it doesn’t matter. That jade pendant isn’t worth much. It’s only 300 taels of silver!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.

“That won’t do. Even if it’s worth ten taels of silver, it’s still money! Since I’m married to you, I naturally have to think for you. I can’t be a spendthrift, right?! I don’t want the extra money. I’ll just compensate you at the original price!” Li Xiaoran said stubbornly.

“I think we should do as your wife says! Don’t be ignorant of fortune. It’s your blessing to have such a thrifty wife!” Luo Han teased.

“Shut up! I know how to handle my own matters. You don’t have to worry! You should go and see Minister Wu! My wife said that she wants the Wu family to compensate me for my jade pendant!” Luo Cheng rolled his eyes at Luo Han and chased him away.

“Yes, yes, yes! I’ll go over and ask for compensation for you!” Luo Han couldn’t be bothered to argue with Luo Cheng. He stood up and left.

After Luo Han left, Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “What happened to you before? Don’t think of making up excuses to fool me! Li Xiaoran, do you think I’m easy to fool?”

Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Luo Cheng’s expression.

“I had no intention of hiding it from you, but I don’t know how to broach the subject!”

“Didn’t you say that you would treat me sincerely? What are you hiding from me?” Luo Cheng felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

When Li Xiaoran saw Luo Cheng like this, she looked around and shook her head.

“Forget it. We can’t talk here. Let’s wait until we get home!”

Luo Cheng saw Li Xiaoran’s nervous expression and thought of the officers outside. He could only nod.

“Alright, we’ll talk about it when we get home! Don’t hide it from me this time!”

“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll do as you say!” Li Xiaoran replied with a smile.

When Li Shun and the others returned with an ox cart, Luo Han and Minister Wu had already communicated.

Minister Wu was a generous person. When he learned that w.a.n.g Mingjiang had damaged Luo Cheng’s jade pendant, he simply asked someone to send a few good jade stones over.

“My son destroyed your jade pendant because he was poisoned. I know that even if we compensate him according to the price, we won’t be able to compensate for the original jade pendant. That’s why I sent these jade stones over. I hope you can find someone to carve the jade pendant you like!” Minister Wu took out the box containing the jade stones and handed it to Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng nodded and thanked him before handing the wooden box containing the jade to Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran also put it away, but she didn’t open it.

w.a.n.g Mingjiang also knew that he was going to leave with Minister Wu, so he walked up to the two of them and bowed respectfully.

“Brother Luo Cheng, Sister Ran, thank you for helping me before! Without you two, I wouldn’t know what I would have done! I won’t cause you guys trouble anymore. I’ll come talk to you guys and cook together, okay?”

When Luo Cheng heard w.a.n.g Mingjiang’s words, he felt very disdainful, but he didn’t refuse.

“It’s not like you can’t find this place. You can come whenever you want!”

“That’s right! Follow your father back and detoxify the poison! We’ll always be here. We won’t run. Don’t be anxious! Deal with the matter first!” Li Xiaoran comforted with a smile.

w.a.n.g Mingjiang nodded and looked at Li Shun and the others, who had returned with the ox cart.

“Uncle Li, Auntie Zhao, and Xiao Qing! Thank you for taking care of me. I’ll miss you all!”

When Li Shun heard this, he smiled and nodded. “If you miss us, come back and visit! You’re welcome anytime!”

“Yes!” w.a.n.g Mingjiang’s eyes turned red. In the end, he waved at everyone and reluctantly left with Minister Wu.
