On Chen Jun's side, Jiang Liu'er didn't have much of a chance of blocking those people. He knew that Chen Jun was actually just an ordinary person. Perhaps he had a few desperate criminals under his command, but his skills weren't necessarily much better than their opponent's.

After thinking about it, Jiang Liu`er was able to sense that although she was sitting there peacefully, it could be said that there were movements in the shadows surrounding her.

No matter who it was, they were all staring at the Golden Jade Dress. This incomplete Golden Jade Dress could set a sky-high price for it. Then, what about the complete Golden Jade Dress?

This thought alone was enough to stir people's desire, especially in such a situation. Just thinking about it, Jiang Liu'er could feel waves of Alexander's attacks. In other words, even if she didn't do anything, the current him would still face countless threats. After all, wealth moved people's hearts. When money reached a certain point, it could really be used to reverse fate.

If these threats were only directed at Jiang Liu'er, he didn't need to be afraid, but Jiang Liu'er was afraid that he was never alone. Behind him, there was also Xuanyuan Mingxue and Yang Xiaodong and Jiang Rong. He could be hurt, but he could not see the woman he loved hurt.

These people would definitely attack him, and Jiang Liu'er was well aware of this fact. However, the current him could not do much. Being on the defensive, it would not be easy for him to find the whereabouts of those people.

He was in a passive state, so he had to consider this point, especially now that he was in such a situation. Jiang Liu'er had developed her ability to the limit, and now that he was in the dark, even if those people wanted to find him, they would have to fall into Chen Jun's hands. Then, Jiang Liu'er knew that he had to first maintain contact with Chen Jun. Coincidentally, he could be considered to have been in close contact with Chen Jun during this period of time, but he didn't know if Chen Jun would be on guard or not.

Jiang Liu'er was currently having lunch with Old Master Zhao and Bai Jie, so she couldn't possibly rush over to inquire about the matter. Thus, she continued to eat with the two of them.

Old Master Zhao was indeed quite interesting and talkative. At the very least, under such circumstances, he could still draw from the scriptures. Jiang Liu'er greatly admired people like him. Under many circumstances, he felt that the other party was quite impressive.

Jiang Liu and Old Master Zhao were chatting quite well, while Bai Jie had nothing to do. However, she was enjoying herself, and didn't have any helplessness from being ignored. Instead, she watched Jiang Liu'er and Old Master Zhao chat in such a carefree manner. Bai Jie felt that something was wrong with her attitude. Since when did she place so much importance on Jiang Liu'er? In the past, she felt that even if Jiang Liu'er didn't do anything, she wouldn't care too much about it.

Bai Jie was thinking about her abnormality and felt that she had indeed benefited greatly from her discussions with Old Master Zhao. Compared to the others, Old Master Zhao's words were even more straightforward. There were many areas that Jiang Liu'er didn't notice, but Old Master Zhao actually did. He gently pointed out the many mistakes in Jiang Liu'er's words, and even corrected them one by one.

For this, Jiang Liu'er was extremely grateful. He really did not notice some things, but fortunately, Old Master Zhao had helped him correct them. Perhaps this wasn't a big deal to others, but Jiang Liu'er occasionally had some obsessive-compulsive disorder. What he didn't notice was that if he could fix it, then that would be for the best.

Looking at Jiang Liu'er in front of his eyes, Old Master Zhao was very satisfied with Jiang Liu'er. Perhaps it was because he hadn't seen such an aggressive young man in a long time, not to mention Jiang Liu'er's abilities were not weak at all.

When he had his fill of wine and food, when he bid farewell to Bai Jie and Jiang Liu'er, he had a satisfied smile on his face, "Thank you for accompanying me for such a long time today."

"That's what we should be doing. Besides, we've benefited a lot, haven't we?" Jiang Liu'er replied with a smile. Perhaps it was because it was him and Old Master Zhao's conversation in the beginning, but now, he directly poked Bai Jie beside him, indicating her to come over.

Bai Jie naturally understood what Jiang Liu'er meant, so she smiled and nodded her head in agreement. In her heart, she still felt a little stunned, but Jiang Liu'er had already pointed at her, so she quickly agreed. Looking at the situation in front of him, how could Old Master Zhao not know what was going on between the two of them? It was just that under the current circumstances, he did indeed have a special fondness for the two in front of him.

Whether it was Jiang Liu'er or Bai Jie, in his eyes, these two were good children. Under other circumstances, he might even want to get them together.

However, his conversation with Jiang Liu'er had made him realize one thing: whether it was Bai Jie or Jiang Liu'er, both of them had a more independent personality. The so-called more independent personality was that others could not be together just because they wanted to be together. If they were interested in each other, then they would naturally be together and would not need other people's help.

Thinking up to here, Old Master Zhao also understood that it was impossible for him to do these unnecessary things. Whether Jiang Liu'er and Bai Jie could be together would depend on their wishes.

Jiang Liu'er felt extremely comfortable with Old Master Zhao. Of course, this was also because Old Master Zhao basically wouldn't interfere in ordinary matters. Only those who didn't mind their own business could talk to each other. Jiang Liu'er chuckled. In this short period of time, he and Old Man Zhao had established quite a good friendship.

Old Master Zhao still felt that Jiang Liu'er's thoughts were quite good. It had been a long time since he had seen such a young man with a solid foundation. Moreover, in many places, even if he were to ask Bai Jie, she might not be able to answer his questions, but Jiang Liu'er could. This made him have a whole new level of respect for Jiang Liu'er. This was what Old Master Zhao thought in his heart as he bid farewell to Jiang Liu'er and Bai Jie.

After all, the early morning activities had exceeded what he could bear. If he didn't rest properly, then his journey tomorrow would be difficult.

In regards to this, Jiang Liu'er and Bai Jie respectfully bid farewell to Old Master Zhao. The two of them were actually thinking the same thing, since Old Master Zhao's character was not bad, but under the previous circumstances, they could still recruit him as a customer of their company.

It was just that he didn't know if Old Master Zhao was happy or not. Now that Jiang Liu'er had succeeded in pulling him over, his chances of success had risen imperceptibly.

As she thought of this, the corners of Bai Jie's lips curled up slightly. She felt a little speechless about this and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Eh?" As soon as Bai Jie came back to her senses, she heard Jiang Liu'er's question. She was still a little confused.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu'er could only helplessly say, "What were you so happy about?"

"Ah, nothing." Bai Jie immediately shook her head and denied it. She would never tell Jiang Liu'er what she was thinking just now. If she had imagined that Jiang Liu'er would be so successful, she would have brought him out earlier.

If Jiang Liu'er had heard this, would he have directly strangled her to death? No matter what, Bai Jie didn't want to take the risk of that. She didn't want to be roasted on the fire grill.

Seeing Bai Jie's reaction, Jiang Liu'er did not believe it. After all, Bai Jie's expression just now was too obvious. Now that she said nothing, Jiang Liu'er was not so easily fooled. However, since Bai Jie had already said so, he could only pretend that he believed her. "If that's the case, then let's go back."

"Alright." Bai Jie nodded. "There are other collections, aren't you going?"

"I'm not going. Anyway, the most recent good thing is just a piece of gold and jade clothing." Jiang Liu'er replied simply. For treasures like this, if they were to reappear in the world, other things would have to stay out of the limelight for now. Jiang Liu'er could understand and imagine this kind of thing. Bai Jie nodded at Jiang Liu'er's words. Previously, she didn't think that she had indeed failed in her duty.

"You haven't said anything the entire day. Don't tell me you're not in a good mood?" When Jiang Liu'er talked about Bai Jie, she didn't say anything. Thinking back, it was basically a video of herself talking to Old Master Zhao, while Bai Jie was always by his side, which made Jiang Liu'er feel incredulous. After all, in the past, Bai Jie could dance with her long sleeves. Why didn't she say a word today?

It was extremely quiet, to the point where Jiang Liu'er almost mistakenly thought that the person before her was a completely different person.

Bai Jie's emotions did not know what to say when she heard what Jiang Liu'er said. In the past, she still felt a little interesting, but what made her feel helpless was that when she was with Jiang Liu'er, she really did not want to say anything anymore. She just wanted to see Jiang Liu'er continue speaking.

For the rest of the time, she had almost forgotten what she had been thinking about. Looking at Bai Jie, Jiang Liu'er could roughly guess what she wanted to do. The most important thing was that she was still relatively quiet right now.

Thinking up to here, Jiang Liu'er sighed. Although he said that he didn't do anything before, when he chatted with Old Man Zhao, he did not neglect Bai Jie. He just realized that she was even quieter today than before, which made him feel that something was wrong.
