What to do if you receive the wrong package?

Chapter 118 is finished, time to ask you to leave.

After listening to Yun Zhiye's explanation, Xi Ming looked at his son-in-law, whose face was still pale, and patted him on the shoulder with great heartache.

"Child, I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"Father-in-law, I'm fine. Zhenzhen's condition is currently unknown. It's all my fault for being useless. I failed to protect Zhenzhen." Yun Zhiye looked at the somewhat aged Xi Ming and felt increasingly sorry for his father-in-law.

Su Huaiqi, who was standing to the side, found it a little funny to hear Yun Zhiye's increasingly familiar "speech," but she still couldn't help but remind him, "Don't be sad. We know some things about Zhenzhen now."

"Really?! Where is she? Who captured her?!" Yun Zhiye immediately raised his head and looked at Su Huaiqi with great eagerness.

Startled, Su Huaiqi shrank back, pointed at Xi Ming, and whispered, "Why don't you let your father-in-law tell you..."

His own sect kidnapped his wife and almost killed him.

She didn't want to tell Yun Zhiye such a cruel thing.

Yun Zhiye quickly turned to Xi Ming, "Father-in-law, how is Zhenzhen?"

Xi Ming coughed lightly, slightly avoiding Yun Zhiye's gaze, and said in a low voice, "Zhenzhen is currently at Weiyu Tower."

Yun Zhiye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He was about to say something when he noticed his father-in-law's strange expression, and his heart jumped again.

"What does Father-in-law mean?" Yun Zhiye dared not think any further. Could it be that the group that kidnapped Zhenzhen was sent by Weiyu Tower?

Xi Ming knew that this news was nothing short of a disaster for Yun Zhiye, so he could only nod silently. "We only know that Zhenzhen is currently being held in Weiyu Tower, but we haven't found out where she is being held yet."

Upon hearing Xi Ming say it himself, Yun Zhiye's already pale face turned even paler, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Looking at Yun Zhiye's miserable appearance, Mu Qing clicked her tongue and said, "You don't need to be too sad. Your sect leader has never been a good-for-nothing. This is the kind of thing he would do."

Su Huaiqi felt somewhat embarrassed; this attempt at comfort was worse than no comfort at all.

Seeing the concern in everyone's eyes, Yun Zhiye gradually calmed down. He shook his head and explained, "Thank you for your concern, senior. I was just too shocked when I heard the news. Actually, for some reason, I am not valued by the sect leader and am disliked by my fellow disciples, which is why I often travel around. Now that this has happened, as long as Zhenzhen can be rescued, I am not afraid of creating further rifts with the sect leader."

After Yun Zhiye finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Hengzhi and Yu Zechuan.

"I just heard that the two of you sneaked into Weiyu Tower at night to check on where Zhenzhen is being held. I am currently unwell, and even if I fully recover, I would only be a burden to you two. How about I draw a detailed map of Weiyu Tower for you two young heroes, so that I can do my part?"

“Yes, yes, you are a disciple of Weiyu Tower, so you must know Weiyu Tower very well.” Su Huaiqi peeked out from next to Yu Zechuan and nodded in agreement.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go and draw it now."

Yu Zechuan looked up and exchanged a glance with Li Hengzhi, then beckoned a guard to lead Yun Zhiye to the study to draw.

Although Xi Ming felt sorry for his son-in-law's injuries, he also knew that it was more important for him to draw the topographical map of Weiyu Tower, so he took the initiative to accompany Yun Zhiye to the study.

Yu Zechuan, Li Hengzhi, and Bai Heming decided to continue their detailed discussion of the evening's operation and then took their leave.

Su Huaiqi was left feeling conflicted. She glanced at Yu Zechuan's retreating figure, then at the six seniors left in the room.

No, she was still very curious about the six mature, steady, and handsome men in the room.

Spend more time with the older men; you might just catch some gossip!

"It seems Miss Su is planning to spend some time with us old folks?" Chen Kangnian asked, looking at Su Huaiqi who had been looking around but hadn't left.

"Pah, pah, pah, what old man. If you ask me, you seniors are not old at all. You are in your prime and still charming."

"Haha, little girl, you have good taste. You're right." Mu Qing leaned back in her chair and gave Su Huaiqi an approving look.

Su Huaiqi chuckled and took the initiative to pick up the teapot and pour tea for each of the seniors. Then she sat obediently to the side, looking at Chen Kangnian, who was the most amiable among them. Just as she was about to say something, Xie Zhi said, "Miss Su, we old friends have not seen each other for a long time and have some private matters to discuss. I wonder if Miss Su could leave for a moment?"

Oh no, I've been told to leave.

Left with no other choice, Su Huaiqi could only obediently nod, stand up, bow to the others, and then take his leave.

After leaving the house, Su Huaiqi wandered aimlessly in the courtyard. She looked up at the warm but not glaring winter sun and suddenly missed her phone.

If I still had my phone, I could chat and video call with Ayan and the others.

I wonder how the rest of them are doing.

As Su Huaiqi walked, he suddenly noticed a black ribbon hanging from a bare tree branch ahead.

Curious, she took a few steps forward, only to be dumbfounded upon closer inspection. What was hanging on the branch wasn't a black ribbon at all, but a small, thin, entirely black snake.

In this cold weather, shouldn't snakes be hibernating? Why are there still some outside?

Moreover, the snake looked quite leisurely, as if it were sunbathing.

Although Su Huaiqi was not afraid of snakes, ancient times were not like modern times. It was not something that could be cured by a single injection of antivenom after being bitten.

Su Huaiqi dared not turn around, his eyes fixed on the still quiet little black snake, and silently raised his left foot to back away.

But as soon as she took her first step, the little snake on the branch suddenly raised its body, its round, bright eyes staring intently at Su Huaiqi, and hissing as it flicked its tongue at her.

In a moment of impulsiveness, Su Huaiqi clasped his hands together in front of his chest and said to the little black snake, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb your rest. You can continue sleeping, I'll leave now, and I promise to keep it quiet."

After saying that, Su Huaiqi realized how foolish his actions had been. But to his surprise, the little black snake relaxed its body after hearing this and turned into a "ribbon" again, hanging on the tree branch.

Su Huaiqi's eyes widened in fright.

Good heavens, could this little black snake have understood what she was saying...?

Whether it understands or not, it's best to run away as soon as possible.

Su Huaiqi quickly retreated, and after taking about ten steps, he decisively turned around and ran back to his own courtyard.

When it was time for dinner, everyone gathered together again.

Su Huaiqi's mind was filled with images of the little black snake all afternoon. Before dinner, he even went back to take a look from afar, but there was nothing on the tree.

Just as she was leaning back in her chair, wondering if she had hallucinated at noon, Yun Zhiye, supported by Xi Ming, staggered into the room, holding a piece of white paper in her hand.

"I have successfully completed the topographical map before you two set off." Yun Zhiye's voice was weak, and his appearance revealed his physical discomfort.

Li Hengzhi took the map with both hands, thanked him, and opened it. The map was very detailed, even including Yun Hailong's bedroom, the approximate hiding places of his bodyguards, and the guards' shift change times.

Su Huaiqi leaned over to take a look and couldn't help but complain, "This is way too detailed... Xuan Yi should really see it. He has the nerve to charge for his work."

Yu Zechuan glanced at Yun Zhiye with some suspicion, then took out the map that Xuan Yi had given him earlier, opened it, and roughly compared it with the map.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it can't be said to be exactly the same, it can only be said to be completely unrelated." Su Huaiqi looked at the two maps. Yun Zhiye's map was simply a supplement of all the details on Xuan Yi's map.

"I didn't expect that after traveling for so long, you would be so familiar with your own sect." Bai Heming looked at Yun Zhiye, a hint of inquiry flashing in his eyes.

“Yes. Zhiye, how could you, an ordinary disciple, know about the secret guards around Yun Hailong?” Xi Ming sat next to Yun Zhiye and suddenly felt that his son-in-law seemed to have another identity that he did not know about.

Yun Zhiye sat in his chair, looking at the different expressions on everyone's faces. He knew that as an ordinary disciple of Weiyu Tower, his ability to draw such a familiar map would inevitably arouse suspicion. He could only give a wry smile.

"I know that you all have some doubts about my identity. I am indeed an ordinary disciple of Weiyu Tower, but Yun Hailong is not only my tower master."

"He is still my biological father."
