Lu Yao couldn't help but smile:

"I didn't mean that... Wait, you didn't sleep last night?"

Ju Wen's face flushed, but she didn't care and continued talking about Lu Yao:

"You really spoil your wife; she does whatever she wants without considering my feelings at all!"

Lu Yao sighed, "Then you just don't understand men. Even if you snuggled into my arms, I couldn't resist. But... Xiao Meizi isn't that lustful. I know she's insecure. She won't believe anything I say, so I can only show her through my actions."

Ju Wen looked at Lu Yao and sighed deeply.

"Before coming to your house, I was really a little unwilling, but now it seems I've decided to withdraw."

"..."

They both fell silent.

In the past, Lu Yao would definitely have said something to make Ju Wen happy.

But now it won't work.

Nothing you say matters more than taking action.

He promised Xiao Meizi he wouldn't mess around anymore, but he clearly couldn't bring himself to do anything about it with Ju Wen.

What else is there to say!

After a while, Ju Wen suddenly laughed and asked Lu Yao:

"Was the dream you had yesterday real? Or did you simply dislike Huang Jianjun and say it was just a dream?"

Lu Yao shook his head: "This is no joke. I really have a premonition. Sister, don't disbelieve me. This is related to your future happiness."

Ju Wen couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

Because there was a period of time before she had actually considered Huang Jianjun.

This kid is such a suck-up.

Lu Yao got married, and Ju Wen couldn't wait for him any longer. In a moment of impulsiveness, she also wanted to find someone to marry.

I thought of Huang Jianjun.

But after Lu Yao said that, she immediately rejected her own idea.

Lu Yao has a good eye for people. He didn't really like Huang Jianjun to begin with, so why should he consider him?

Ju Wen said nothing more, deciding to give up on that idea and focus on her work.

Lu Yao claimed he was a mayoral candidate, so let's see how accurate his dream really is!

Once they arrived in the city, Ju Wen and he went to work separately.

Lu Yao then went to Yuan Tianshu's residence.

Originally, Lu Yao only wanted to find the culprit who launched the night raid on Jiapigou and restore peace to the village.

But it is different now.

As events unfolded, he learned that Yuan Tianshu held a secret to wealth.

If I could acquire this wealth, I wouldn't need to work so hard and could live a good life with my family.

It can also help Mei Ping eliminate potential hazards.

Since she had already bewitched Yuan Tianshu and made him feel that he had her under control, she couldn't just keep waiting for him to come looking for her; she should go and see for herself.

……

Yuan Tianshu was lying in bed at this time.

Looking at Xiulan, the nanny beside him, he couldn't help but sigh.

I have so much strength, but last night I couldn't even lift my head.

Xiulan tried everything she could, but she still couldn't cheer herself up.

Is it because of the immense pressure lately, or is it because Xiulan's appearance isn't appealing enough to motivate him?

In short, when a man reaches this point, he will definitely feel depressed.

Even though Yuan Tianshu wasn't a lecherous man, and he preferred accumulating wealth, he was still very unwilling to suddenly lose his ability to do so.

She nudged Xiulan, who was drooling in her sleep:

"Go back to your own bed."

Yuan Tianchu chased her away with some disgust.

He used to have so many concubines, each one of whom was gorgeous and beautiful.

Someone like Xiulan wouldn't even be considered a maid.

I'm lying here with my eyes closed, trying to relax.

He was thinking about several women.

Fan Suzhen is alright, fair-skinned, and quite unique.

When I was tormenting her, I liked the look in her eyes.

That look of hatred mixed with helplessness allowed him to fully enjoy the allure of conquest.

Xilian... Hmph, this little wench is quite interesting.

It would have worked if we hadn't been pressed for time that night!

I thought about it for a long time, but it still didn't work.

It seems I'm really going to be useless.

I can't play with women, but I wonder if I can fulfill my lifelong wish before I die!

When liberation came, in order to protect themselves, they lost all their gold and silver.

Fortunately, I know the secret of that picture.

If we can find it, then it's like getting back wealth and glory.

I'll find a way to leave the country, escape overseas, and live a carefree and happy life for a while...

When you get old, even if you are the richest person in the world, can you really live a happy and carefree life?

Yuan Tianshu was in a very low mood.

However, he had a spirit since childhood that he would not be satisfied until he got what he wanted.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Xiulan yawned as she went to open the door.

Lu Yao came in.

Yuan Tianchu quickly got up.

"Xiao Lu, you're here! Perfect timing, I need to talk to you."

"What is it?"

Yuan Tianchu reached into the drawer and took out an envelope:

"Last night, that mysterious person slipped another letter in."

Xiulan, the nanny serving tea, was puzzled:

"When did this happen, sir? I had no idea."

Yuan Tianchu glared at him: "Get out of here and don't disturb our conversation."

Xiulan walked out looking unhappy.

I dropped a thermos in the outer room.

She muttered, "You're taking your frustrations out on me because you can't handle it anymore. My hands are numb from exhaustion, and it's not like I didn't put in the effort!"

The envelope was handed to Lu Yao.

Lu Yao took it, opened it, and sure enough, it was the same handwriting as last time.

The above contained some threatening words, giving Lu Yao and Yuan Tianshu three days. If they couldn't find the painting, they would expose Lu Yao.

After reading it, Lu Yao looked at Yuan Tianchu, his face showing anxiety and unease:

"Sir, what should we do? I've already been to the evidence room, and it's really not there!"

Yuan Tianchu thought for a moment:

"Actually, I also investigated secretly. The files and evidence that the mysterious person asked us to check on those two days were items confiscated from two separate locations. One was from Liang Dongping's house, and the other was from Li Poxi's house."

Lu Yao stared at Yuan Tianchu; he had actually leaked the information to him.

This demonstrates his eagerness and his eagerness to win him over.

Yuan Tianshu also knew that simply using Lu Yao would not easily gain Lu Yao's trust.

He is different from people like Chen Dahuzi and Sun Wenju; he possesses abilities that are difficult for you to control.

Some people are suited to be servants, while others need to be treated as friends.

Lu Yao is clearly the latter.

So he gradually released information to win over Lu Yao.

Moreover, saying this would prevent Lu Yao from suspecting that he was doing nothing.

They started analyzing it proactively:

"Li Poxi was the one who raided Liang Dongping's house, but Li Poxi was assassinated, and the one who cleaned up the mess was the current deputy director Zhao Wanli."

He spoke slowly and deliberately, then picked up his teacup and took another sip.

"So, what the mysterious man wants isn't in the police station's evidence room; it might be in Zhao Wanli's hands. I think our next target should be Zhao Wanli. And... we can't let this mysterious man lead us by the nose. If we get our hands on that painting, we must analyze its value; otherwise, this mysterious man wouldn't be so interested!"

Lu Yao nodded: "You can arrange everything, Elder Yuan. Just help me out of this predicament!"

The two smiled at each other, their understanding unspoken.

Lu Yao said a few words and then left.

Yuan Tianshu got up to see him out.

Then he turned around and picked up a towel.

He beckoned to the nanny, Xiulan, "Come to my room."

Xiulan frowned and glared at him from behind: "What are you trying to do now? If it's not allowed at night, is it okay during the day?"

Yuan Tianshu heard her complaints and his lips twitched involuntarily.
