Chapter 1604: Chapter 1606: A Certain Master Was There Before
Luo Linhao was a bit confused about what was going on with the Mu Family, so he asked, "Why do I feel like Brother Shaoling is trying to please Chengcheng?"
"Uncle, your feeling is correct, that’s exactly how Uncle is."
"Why?" Luo Linhao was somewhat puzzled.
Yangyang spread his little hands, "Why else? He hurt his son’s feelings." After saying this, he was about to carry the box back to his courtyard.
"Wait, wait a moment." Yang Chuxia quickly stopped him when she saw his actions, "Are you planning to keep it in your own courtyard?"
"What else?"
"No, take it to where your monkeys are and let the servants take care of it." Yang Chuxia said with a slightly stern tone, "This matter is not up for discussion. If you want to keep it, you have to do it my way. Otherwise, return it to your uncle."
Hearing this, Yangyang blinked and looked at her for a while before nodding reluctantly, "Alright, alright, I’ll listen to mom. I’ll leave it in my courtyard for a while, and then I’ll let the servants come and take it."
"You can play, but not for more than one hour."
"Got it." Yangyang said while holding the box and walking ahead, muttering, "Mom is really domineering."
"Pfft..." Luo Linhao naturally heard everything he said and chuckled, "These two are real treasures, so entertaining."
Made him want to take them home himself.
Several days passed, and Luo Linhao, who was a mischievous child fond of fun and trouble, had grown somewhat stable and mature after a few years in the military camp, yet his nature remained the same. These days, he took Yangyang and a few other kids wandering around Shandong Prefecture City, almost turning it upside down. Yangyang, who loved to play, was growing fonder of this uncle.
Even Chengcheng became closer to him, which made Mu Shaoling insanely jealous, yet his son simply ignored him.
One day, Luo Linhao went to the study to find Ye Zi’an, coincidentally, Mu Shaoling was also there, and the moment he saw him, he gave a look of disapproval.
"Tsk tsk, why are you looking at me like that? It’s not like I made your son ignore you."
"..." Mu Shaoling snorted but said nothing.
"Do you need something?" Ye Zi’an noticed Luo Linhao had come to the study, guessing he had a reason. Moreover, what he mentioned about conducting a mission was likely not a simple task.
"Of course, I’m here for something." Luo Linhao found a seat and sat down.
Upon hearing this, Mu Shaoling immediately retorted, "If you had something to do, why didn’t you say so earlier instead of fooling around with a bunch of kids?"
"Tsk tsk, a jealous man is terrifying, but a man jealous of his son is even more terrifying, like he’s swallowed firecrackers." Luo Linhao glanced at him disdainfully and moved his chair a bit further away.
"You looking for a beating!"
"Alright, alright, Linhao, talk business." Noticing the tension, Ye Zi’an hurried to mediate.
Upon hearing this, Luo Linhao thought for a while, and then said, "Actually, I’m ordered to investigate the Fancy Red Pavilion. Wasn’t there a portion of people hiding in the shadows at that time? I’m investigating these people."
"I knew it; I wondered why the court had no news about the Fancy Red Pavilion. Turns out they went for a covert investigation." Ye Zi’an thought everyone stopped checking. "Have you found anything?"
"Quite a bit." Luo Linhao nodded, "The master behind the Fancy Red Pavilion should be one of those masters."
"Any evidence?" Ye Zi’an pondered; this suspicion was long considered, only lacking evidence.
"I traced from the Yunnan area to Jiangsu, then to Funan and Shandong. In these places, there is a weapon shop, and these shops are interconnected. I discovered that these weapon shops surfaced after the Fancy Red Pavilion vanished, almost overnight. My people found that someone had visited the shop in Shandong."
