"Master Fang's implication is that if someone protects Huo Sanniang, he is an enemy of Master Fang?" Wang Quanzhi looked directly at Fang Zilan, his eyes sharp and threatening.
And Fang Zilan looked back sharply, "If she is inseparable from this life lawsuit, then no matter who wants to protect her, I will not let it go."
After Fang Zilan finished speaking, she put the tea cup in her hand on the table. The fine porcelain and sandalwood collided together, and the sound was neither light nor heavy, but it sounded like a threat.
She calmed down and stood up, flicking her sleeves politely and saying, "The tea at Mr. Wang's house is indeed good, but I have something to do today, so I won't bother you too much. I will visit again when I have some free time."
Wang Quanzhi made no further attempts to persuade him to stay and allowed Fang Zilan to leave with Awan.
Just after walking a few steps out of the Wang family gate, Awan broke away from Fang Zilan's hand and shouted muffledly, "Fang Zilan."
"Yes, I'm here." Fang Zilan squatted down with a rare good temper.
Awan is tall, making him look half a head taller than her.
Fang Zilan held Awan's hand and whispered softly: "Are we, Awan, hungry? I saw you ate a lot of cakes at Wang's house just now."
"Fang Zilan..." Awan didn't say anything, he just called her name repeatedly, looking quite like a pitiful little kitten, and the call was heartbreaking.
Fang Zilan allowed A Wan to shout and remained squatting motionless, holding A Wan's hand with no intention of letting go.
I don't know how long it took, until the sun was setting in the west and the sky was getting a little dark. Awan shook her hand and said in a serious and coquettish manner, "I'm hungry. I want to eat bean curd, wonton buns, sugar cakes, and candied haws."
Fang Zilan couldn't help but chuckle, "After talking so much, can you finish eating?"
"Didn't you ask me?" Awan suddenly threw her hand away angrily, "Just forget it if you can't afford it, I'll buy it myself."
"Who says I can't afford it? I can afford whatever Awan wants to eat." Fang Zilan looked at Awan's jumping back, quickly chased after her, and held her hand again, "It's my fault Well, that’s all if it’s hard work on my own, but I drag you and me running around here and there, not only don’t we get any rest, we don’t even get to eat.”
"What do you mean it's just a matter of hard work?" A-Wan suddenly stopped, "Even if you are alone, you still have to eat and rest well, why is it just that?"
A Wan's arrogant look was so powerful that even Fang Zilan had to bow her head, "Yes, yes, everything we A Wan says is right."
"You're just going to deal with me like this?" Awan refused, and Fang Zilan walked forward on her own, "It's not that I'm perfunctory, it's that if it's later, all the stores will close their stalls, what else can you eat?"
"I don't care, anyway, I have to eat bean curd wonton buns, sugar cake, and candied haws of sugar!" Awan followed and grabbed the hem of her clothes, "Don't even think about getting rid of me."
"I won't get rid of you." Fang Zilan slowed down, her expression and tone more serious, "It's just that this time the fortune and misfortune are unpredictable, and I'm afraid you will get hurt by following me. But I can only let you follow me. That way you can rest assured.”
"Fang Zilan, what you are saying now is decent." Awan nodded with satisfaction, and then noticed with sharp eyes that the bun shop on the roadside was not closed yet, and hurriedly pulled Fang Zilan and ran over.
Although Fang Zilan is said to be the Lord of the North, in fact not many people recognize her. She is also happy to buy a lot of food with Awan.
The two walked slowly back to the house under the sunset.
However, when the two returned to the house, they found that it was unusually quiet, and there seemed to be no one. It was not until they walked to the front hall that they saw Vice General Cao and Shangguan Pi sitting in the hall, with different expressions and no idea what they were thinking. What.
Awan held a bag of candy cakes in her arms and a bunch of candied haws in her hand. She stood at the door and frowned slightly: "It's so late, what are you doing sitting here?"
She walked into the hall and put the candy cakes in her arms on the table, "We bought these on the way back. Let's share them with you."
Fang Zilan followed A Wan and placed the two bags of buns on the table. She lit a few lamps on the table and the whole hall instantly became much brighter.
"You just light a lamp at night and don't answer questions. What's going on with you two?" Fang Zilan said and sat on the main seat. Awan sat next to her, eating candied haws with relish.
Vice Admiral Cao and Shangguan Fei looked at the two of them, both looking like they were hesitant to speak. Fang Zilan couldn't help but sigh, "Is there something you can't tell me?"
"If you don't tell me, let me guess." Seeing the silence between the two of them, Fang Zilan continued talking on her own, "Is someone careless, someone is missing again, or is there something wrong with Shangguan Linglan?"
"Boss, none of them." Vice General Cao couldn't hold his breath and spoke first, "After you left, Mr. Shangguan interrogated Shangguan Linglan for a long time, but not only was there no result, but he also forced Shangguan Linglan to die to prove his ambition."
"Is the person dead?" Fang Zilan looked indifferent. Vice General Cao shook his head hastily, "No, I stopped him."
Fang Zilan leaned on the armrest a little tiredly, "The person is not dead, and I haven't asked anything, so what is going on with you?"
"Although I didn't ask anything, Shangguan women are all in danger, and they are very wary of Sister Linglan." The person who answered her was Shangguan Fei.
Fang Zilan raised her eyes and glanced at the restless Shangguan Pei, and said softly: "You should have thought of this situation when you questioned Shangguan Linglan. Even if she refused to admit it, I am afraid that the people in this house will not tolerate her. .”
As if someone had read his mind, Shangguan Fei hurriedly argued: "I didn't expect..."
"What didn't you expect?" Fang Zilan interrupted him lightly, her tone was a bit tired, "Do you think that the Shangguan family are all members of the same clan and will trust and rely on each other, so it's okay for you to ask? This is human life, no matter it is Anyone who is involved will be afraid, and fear is the most terrifying weapon in the world. After being stripped of all reason, it can hurt both others and yourself."
For a moment, no one spoke in the hall, and the sound of Awan slurping the candied haws was particularly loud, making Shangguan Fei and Vice General Cao lick their lips involuntarily.
"Are you two hungry?" Fang Zilan pointed to the steamed buns and candy cakes on the table with some helplessness, "Awan brought them for you, saying they are delicious so you can try them too."
As soon as she finished speaking, Vice General Cao stepped forward and took a bag of steamed buns. He smiled naively and said, "Boss, I'm not welcome."
Fang Zilan hummed and motioned to Deputy General Cao to get a bag for Shangguan Fei, "You won't eat for such a trivial matter? It's nothing if a man dares to do what he does. What's more, Shangguan Linglan is indeed suspicious and made the order If you don’t explain something you suspect, you will have to suffer a lot.”
