Chapter 498: Chapter 499: Who Are You Looking for After All
When they arrived at Ye Zi’an’s house, Mu Shaoling ordered the two followers, "You two stay downstairs and don’t let anyone come up."
"Yes, young master!" "Yes, young master!"
At this moment, Mu Shaoling’s authoritative aura was fully revealed, making Yang Chuxia doubt whether this was his true self.
"What do you want to tell us?" As soon as they went upstairs, Yang Chuxia asked straightforwardly.
Mu Shaoling glanced at Ye Zi’an several times in response, but Ye Zi’an didn’t look at him at all.
Then Mu Shaoling pursed his lips and said, "Aren’t you curious about why I’m here? To be honest, I actually came here to find someone."
"Oh, I know you’re looking for someone, a woman. But who are you looking for?"
Mu Shaoling glared at her, "No need to be anxious, I’m not looking for you."
Yang Chuxia, having a good temper, nodded, "I know it’s not me you’re looking for, then who are you looking for?"
"The person I’m looking for should have come to Yangshu Village fifteen years ago," Mu Shaoling said indifferently.
Yang Chuxia was speechless, "Who exactly are you looking for?"
"Can’t you let me finish speaking?" Mu Shaoling yelled.
"Alright, just say it. Who are you looking for?" Yang Chuxia asked again.
Mu Shaoling then glared at Ye Zi’an, "Ye Zi’an, can you be more manly and manage her? So she won’t be so annoying."
Ye Zi’an shrugged, looking at Mu Shaoling with confusion, "I don’t think Xiaxia is wrong. You could have said everything in one sentence, so why did you drag it out for so long?"
In response, Yang Chuxia looked at Ye Zi’an with satisfaction. Nice, Brother An was really on her side.
But Mu Shaoling was about to burst with anger. If he were a modern person, he would surely think that these two were sent by monkeys to make a fool of him.
Unfortunately, he was not, so he had to grit his teeth and say, "I came to find your mother."
"My mother?" Yang Chuxia reacted instinctively.
"Tsk!" Frustrated, Mu Shaoling almost forgot he was a man and acted like a woman, snorting before saying, "I came looking for Ye Zi’an’s mother."
At this point, Yang Chuxia finally quieted down!
After exchanging glances with Ye Zi’an for a while, she turned her head and asked, "Why are you looking for Brother An’s mother? She already passed away a long time ago, do you want to look for her in the underworld?"
"Yang Chuxia, can you be any more stupid?"
"Hehe, nope!" Finally, she became serious and asked, "Why are you looking for Brother An’s mother? What’s so special about her?"
Mu Shaoling simply asked Ye Zi’an, "Your mother’s name was Luo Minyu, right?"
Ye Zi’an nodded silently in response.
"In Capital City, there is a Luo Family. More than a decade ago, a woman from the Luo Family fell in love with a poor scholar who came to take the imperial exam. As she was a daughter born out of wedlock, there wasn’t much opposition. They quickly married. However, because the first daughter of the Luo Family entered the palace as a concubine and some trouble occurred there, it affected the entire Luo Family. At a critical moment, the head of the Luo Family entrusted something very important to the illegitimate daughter and had them flee the city in the middle of the night. If Capital City’s crisis was resolved, they would return; if the Luo Family was destroyed, they would wait and hand over the item to the first daughter’s eldest son someday."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia said, "So you didn’t come to find Brother An’s mother, but to find that item?"
Mu Shaoling, looking stunned, nodded. "Exactly."
Yang Chuxia looked at Ye Zi’an, and Mu Shaoling also looked at him.
"I hope you can produce the item!" Mu Shaoling said, "It’s vital to the entire Luo Family and the future political landscape."
