Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 1127: Don’t Kill Daddy (3)
Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: Don’t Kill Daddy (3)
An Yiqing did not speak, falling into deep thought. What kind of distinguished guest could make the Ninja Headquarters seem so bizarre? Was this man related to the disappearance of her grandfather and the others?
The whole affair seemed to be shrouded in a fog, leaving no direction to grasp.
"Is there any other news?"
Feng Tianci nodded and continued, "There is another piece of news, but it’s not something recent. A friend of mine mentioned that the Tutian Family has been secretly up to something over the past few years. He learned from a drunk insider that the Family Head of the Tutian Family has great ambitions, seemingly planning to surpass the Anpei Family."
"The Anpei Family? That’s quite the ambition!"
An Yiqing’s eyebrows raised, a flash of surprise in her eyes.
The Anpei Family is an ancient Master Yinyang Family with a long history in Country Bai. For hundreds of years, the Anpei Family had been heavily relied upon by Country Bai’s royal family, holding a supremely esteemed position.
It can be said that in Country Bai, no matter how arrogant the Tutian Family might be, upon encountering the Anpei Family, they would have to bow and address them respectfully as "Lord Anpei."
What exactly gave this Patriarch Tutian the confidence to surpass the Anpei Family?
Thoughts of the several peculiar murder cases that had occurred in Xuandu City and those who attacked with firearms during her and Gu Yelin’s engagement ceremony suddenly flashed through An Yiqing’s mind. If all these people were sent by the Tutian Family, then everything would make sense.
However, An Yiqing couldn’t help but feel that there was something she had overlooked, as if there was a problem with the connection between all events.
Sitting on the sofa and thinking for a long while, she still couldn’t recall the key point of the problem, but she was interrupted by an unexpected phone call.
As soon as the mobile phone rang, everyone’s gaze fell on An Yiqing’s phone.
She glanced indifferently at the unfamiliar number on the screen; it was not a domestic phone number.
After pressing the answer and speaker buttons, An Yiqing quietly waited for the other party to speak without saying a word.
"Miss An, hello."
A deep male voice spoke up, his Xuanjin Language was not standard, but the emphasis on his pronunciation betrayed his identity as someone from Dongchu Zhou.
"Who are you?"
"I am Tutian Zhengxiong, the Third Family Head of the well-known Tutian Family of Country Bai. I would like to propose a trade with you over a certain matter."
The coldness in An Yiqing’s eyes intensified, "Speak."
"Miss An’s parents and relatives are currently enjoying hospitality at my residence, and I hope Miss An could personally fetch them after three days. Of course, as the only daughter of the An Family, I hope you will bring the family heirloom for me to appreciate."
The family heirloom? The bracelet?
Her eyebrows slightly furrowed, An Yiqing’s gaze fell upon the agate-studded bracelet she was wearing on her wrist.
"Alright. The time and location?"
Tutian Zhengxiong seemed very pleased with An Yiqing’s full cooperation, courteously and concisely providing the address and time.
Three days later, eleven in the morning, at the Ninja Headquarters of the Tutian Family in Lemin Mountain!
Indeed, it was there!
Slamming her phone down on the table, a cold smile curled at the corners of An Yiqing’s mouth.
"Rest for the night, and tomorrow morning, we storm in to rescue them!"
That night, dark blue clouds roiled in the sky, seemingly foretelling that the next day would not be clear and sunny.
An Yiqing sat quietly on the sofa, not turning on the lights, only twisting the small bedside lamp a bit brighter.
The dim light cast on her face, highlighting her slightly pale complexion. In her hands, she held a Tri-edge Military Spike, meticulously wiping it, her gaze wandering, lost in thought.
