“He returned to the country today, and the last location was in the cemetery. Right now…hmm, he’s on the move, and the signal is a bit weak.”

The man turned his head and lowered his gaze, his voice cold and clear, “Send me the location after it’s confirmed.”

Soon, a location message was received on the phone.

“Go here.”

“Yes.”

The car stopped at a dilapidated intersection.

The car window slowly rolled down, and the man’s gaze happened to fall on a man and a woman getting out of a silver car not far away.

It was Shen Wu and Mo Chen.

The girl had her hair tied back in a simple ponytail, with a few stray strands falling on her cheeks. Her black shirt had its sleeves rolled up, revealing her fair and delicate wrists. Her legs were long and straight.

The sunlight cast a faint halo around her body, making her appear ethereal.

However, her entire body was emitting a cold aura, and she seemed to be in a very bad mood.

Shen Wu felt a strong gaze following her closely and could not help but look up.

She looked at the man in the car.

Not far away, Shen Wu could feel his gaze on her, sizing her up. The man’s dark and dangerous eyes seemed to be predatory, like staring into an abyss that could swallow you whole if you weren’t careful. The pressure in the air made Shen Wu feel uncomfortable.

Jiang Yi, observing his master’s unusual behavior of staring at a woman, couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. His master was famous for not showing any interest in women, let alone staring at them like this. It was a rare sight indeed.

Shen Wu calmly averted her gaze, reminding herself that this was a dangerous and cunning man whom she needed to stay away from.

She continued to walk towards the courtyard with Mo Chen.

Then, she heard a delicate female voice. ” Sister?”

Shen Ning was very surprised to see Shen Wu there.

Shen Wu stopped in her tracks and looked towards the other end of the alley with Mo Chen. Her expression revealed an indescribable emotion.

Shen Ning wore a white dress, with her black hair cascading behind her. At the moment, she was walking towards Shen Wu while holding onto the arm of a young man, and the two of them looked very well-matched.

“Sister, what a coincidence. This is my fiancé, Bo Xiu,” Shen Ning pointed to the person next to her and spoke with a hint of pride in her tone when looking at Shen Wu.

In order to win over Bo Xiu, she had not spared any effort in tormenting Shen Nuan.

Upon seeing Shen Wu, Bo Xiu’s gentle face was filled with surprise, and he looked at her as if Nuan Nuan was standing before him.

But Bo Xiu knew very well that this was not Nuan Nuan.

Because she and Nuan Nuan were two different types of people. Nuan Nuan was gentle and sunny, while this person was obviously cold and aloof, somewhat similar to his eldest brother.

Bo Xiu reached out his hand and greeted Shen Wu in a gentle voice, “Hello.”

Shen Wu narrowed her eyes. Bo Xiu, the third young master of the Bo family, was the final straw that broke her sister. And now, he was taking the initiative to come to her.

Shen Wu intentionally sized him up. He stood tall and straight, with a white shirt that made him look very clean. Bo Xiu’s face was warm and smiling, with bright eyes and white teeth. Shen Wu could understand why her sister would like him.

In the midst of the dark life, there was suddenly a glimmer of light, how could one not be moved?

Shen Wu’s hands were in her pockets, showing no intention of shaking hands with him.

Bo Xiu withdrew his hand awkwardly, but he did not feel embarrassed, instead showing a great deal of generosity.

“Sister, what brings you here?”

Shen Wu glanced at her indifferently and leaned against the wall, “I live here.”

Shen Ning was slightly surprised as she looked around. Her voice was soft and delicate. “Are you planning to stay here? If people find out that Shen Minglin’s daughter is living here, they might think your father treats you poorly.” She was both explicitly and implicitly criticizing the poor and shabby environment of the place.

Shen Wu said nothing but just exchanged a glance with Mo Chen.

Although she didn’t say anything, her eyes were full of sarcasm.

Shen Ning didn’t pay attention to Shen Wu’s expression. She looked around and asked, “I heard there’s a divine doctor living here. Do you know anything about it, sister?”
