Chapter 1604 - 1604: Miss Little Green
Translator: Lonelytree
After Xiao Jingrui heard Jiang Yunfengs words, he frowned slightly. Then he thought for a moment and smiled coldly,” Well, as you said, I will take you as a hostage to force Lin Yuelan to solve the mystery of the metal detector!”
When Jiang Yunfeng heard Xiao Jingrui’s answer, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, from the moment he started to follow Xiao Jingrui, he had been worried about his own safety.
Now, Xiao Jingrui still needed him, but if he found the location of the gold mine and iron mine, then he would become a useless person, and more likely, he would be afraid that he would leak the secret and kill him.
Therefore, instead of worrying about his own situation, it was better to let him display his value and let him go to Jiang Zhennan, that unfilial son, and return to the General’s Estate,
When he went to the General’s Estate, Jiang Zhennan had to be respectful to his father. He had to provide food and drink for him. It was completely the treatment of an old master. Most importantly, he would save his life.
Even if Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan hated him because of Yuan Shutong, they wouldn’t dare to kill him.
After all, Jiang Yunfeng was Jiang Zhennan’s biological father and Lin Yuelan’s father-in-law.
But Xiao Jingrui was different!
The relationship between him and Xiao Jingrui was a transaction in itself.
It was very likely that Xiao Jingrui would kill him.
He was just a commoner now. Even if Xiao Jingrui killed him, no one would know.
Because no one cared about his life or death anymore.
It was more likely that Xiao Jingrui had achieved what he wanted, but he had become an obstacle, and it was inevitable to silence him.
Therefore, no matter what, he had to gamble with his life.
What kind of person was Xiao Jingrui? He was a strategist on the battlefield, a person who could make clouds and rain in the court with a flip of his hand. How could he not notice Jiang Yunfengs plan?
Just as Jiang Yunfeng thought, he and Jiang Yunfeng were originally a deal, but Jiang Yunfeng no longer had any say in the deal.
If Jiang Yunfeng was no longer of value, or if he had used up all his value, then he would be killed.
However, for now, Jiang Yunfeng still had a certain value.
This was because he had bought the metal detector from Jiang Yunfeng. Perhaps he was the only person who knew the origin of this item.
Xiao Jingrui was somewhat disdainful of Jiang Yunfengs proposal, but he thought about it and found that Jiang Yunfengs words made some sense.
According to Jiang Yunfeng, the location of the gold and iron mines drawn by Yuan Shutong was detected by this thing.
However, Yuan Shutong had already passed away, and no one knew how to use this thing.
This item that he had bought at a high price had become useless. It would be a pity to throw it away.
Lin Yuelan looked at the map in her hand and said with some pity,” If only Little Green were here!”
With Little Green, they didn’t have to spend much effort to find Xiao Jingrui’s whereabouts.
However, Lin Yuelan couldn’t bear it. After all, Little Green was so innocent and could even transform into a human. She didn’t want Little Green to be stained with blood, so she let him be. Little Green just wanted to be an adorable child.
Jiang Zhennan looked at Lin Yuelan and stroked the stray hair on her forehead with one hand.” You miss Little Green, don’t you?”
Lin Yuelan didn’t deny it.” Indeed! It’s been almost two years since I came back, and I’ve never been separated from Little Green. However, I did not expect that it would be so long this time!”
Just as Grandpa and the others were about to come to the capital, Little Green suddenly felt an opportunity, so it transformed into a small vine and went to
Yun City alone.
Therefore, Little Green and his grandfather did not meet. When his grandfather asked where Little Green had gone, she found an excuse and said that Little Green had not arrived in the capital and had been sent to the military camp to train.
At that time, when Grandpa heard this, his heart ached terribly. However, they also knew that Little Green was very assertive at such a young age.
This matter of going to the military camp was definitely not Jiang Zhennan’s idea. It was definitely his own idea.
Fortunately, after Grandpa found out that Little Green had gone to the military camp, he did not ask much.
Otherwise, many flaws would be revealed.
This was because before coming to the capital, Little Green had been clamouring to come and take a look. However, when he really came to the capital, he actually went to the military camp before he even reached the capital. This was not right.
Of course, Grandpa and the rest didn’t ask about Little Green because they were afraid that others would overhear it. Lin Yuelan had Little Green as her younger brother. Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan were both in high positions now. They were afraid that some people with bad intentions would vent their anger on Little Green if they couldn’t deal with the two of them. If something really happened, they wouldn’t even have a place to cry.
Therefore, after knowing that Little Green was safe and sound, the people from Taoyuan Village didn’t ask much.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuelan shook her head in amusement and said,” Little Green and I have never been separated for such a long time. Now that we’ve been separated for such a long time, I do miss him a little! However, I think Little Green will definitely miss me very much. He will definitely come back to find me as soon as possible!”
Jiang Zhennan nodded and said,” Yes.”
Just as the two of them were talking, there was a knock on the door.
When Lin Yuelan got up and opened the door, she saw Liu Yichen in his fluttering white clothes.
When Jiang Zhennan saw him, his face darkened as if he was dissatisfied.
He said,” Eldest Young Master Liu, it’s the middle of the night. Why didn’t you have a good rest? What are you doing here?”
Liu Yichen sneered and said,” Jiang Zhennan, I should be the one asking you that! Why aren’t you resting well in the middle of the night? Why did you come to my sister’s room? Even if you two are engaged, you are not husband and wife now. Aren’t you afraid of ruining her reputation by staying in her house like this?”
Jiang Zhennan snorted coldly.” Eldest Young Master Liu, I don’t need you to remind me. I know what I’m doing. I won’t ruin Yue ‘er’s reputation!”
Liu Yichen nodded and replied,” You better don’t!”
Lin Yuelan rubbed her forehead weakly.. Then, she asked,” Big Brother, why are you looking for me?”
