The old man kept pondering but he still shook his head, he felt it was impossible since other than that person, everyone else shouldn’t know about it.
”Sir……”
”Leave.”
The Finance Minister felt helpless, he could only turn around and leave. His heart was thumping, what’s the big deal about him, acting all arrogant.
After the Finance Minister left, the old man left the palace, he headed to the restaurant in the imperial city.
”I want to meet your master,” The old man took out a token as he looked at the shopkeeper.
The boss shot a glance at the token, he then shook his head: “Master has been missing for a few days.”
”Huh? What happened?” The old man’s expression changed.
The owner of the restaurant was related to that person, he had been staying here for a long time and never left, how was it possible for him to leave this time?
The boss glanced at the old man: “I’m not sure.”
”Then what else do you know?” The old man was enraged, that person left yet this servant did not know to inform him, how did he become the manager?
The manager furrowed his brows and looked at the old man: “I do not know anything,” He turned around and did his own thing after finishing talking.
The old man had ugly expression after being treated coldly, he glared at the other party and said angrily: “Stand right there.”
The manager of the restaurant halted his footsteps, he turned his head and looked at the old man: “I wonder if there is any other thing? If there isn’t any, I’m busy,” He had many matters to handle, he did not have the time to squabble with others.
”Anything happened before your master disappeared?” The old man suddenly thought of Ning Meng Yao, he narrowed his eyes, that person vanished at the wrong time.
The boss of the restaurant pondered for a while and shook his head: “Nothing happened, but one night, the master suddenly told me he was leaving for some time.”
The old man glanced at him, it was obvious he did not believe in his statement.
There were many servants in the restaurant, they were all personally selected by that person, most of them only listened to the restaurant owner’s order, as for the others, it was like the current situation, they were cold and indifferent.
The manager of the restaurant looked calmly at the old man: “If you do not have any other matters, I will get going.”
The old man still wanted to say something, but seeing the other party’s calm expression, he could only wave his hand and send him off. Before he left, he instructed: “Please inform me if your master contacts you.”
He remained silent for a while before nodding his head in reply.
The old man returned empty-handed. He could only return to the palace in a helpless manner. What he didn’t know was after he left, the manager of the restaurant released a messenger pigeon, there was a small bamboo tube under its wings.
Wu You who was in the Regent’s Residence reached out his hand and caught the descending messenger pigeon, he looked at the content inside and had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, but his gaze was icy cold.
He must be really impatient, finding him immediately after obtaining the news.
”What happened?” Ning Meng Yao asked curiously after seeing Wu You’s strange expression.
Wu You sighed, he passed the note in his hand to Ning Meng Yao: “That person in the palace came to the restaurant to find me.”
Ning Meng Yao accepted it and read, she then nodded her head in satisfaction: “What I want is for him to find you,” The old man could not find him, he would definitely contact the person behind him, it was not known whether she would meet that person in the end?
”Yup, I guess she would be coming over soon,” Wu You muttered softly, his gaze was grim.
Ning Meng Yao was actually quite curious about the woman that Wu You mentioned, but seeing him acting this way, Ning Meng Yao did not continue questioning.
”If that person comes, you can ask her why she treated you this way,” As long as he still had a knot in his heart, Wu You was destined to be single his whole life.
Wu You’s hand which was holding the teacup stopped for a short moment, he then laughed: “Alright, but you need to be careful, that person is really strong.”
”Between Nan Yu and her, who’s stronger?” Ning Meng Yao tilted her head and looked at Wu You, she blinked her eyes and asked in a serious manner.
Wu You looked helplessly at Ning Meng Yao, can this person stop picking on his words?
”She was originally an innocent young lady, I have no idea when she became like this,” They knew each other since they were young, at that time, the two of them were from aristocratic families and were certain they would be together. But it was not known when she had changed. He was kept in the dark the whole time, or perhaps she had never been honest with him.
