Chapter 69 I'm just passing by to take a look
It turns out the problem was with the tea!
After returning to Tiange Tower, the butler considerately brought a pot of tea for the city lord to sober up. He did not doubt it and drank the tea directly. After that, he returned to the room and the things mentioned before happened.
The city lord had not originally suspected the butler, but during the period of his illness, the butler's activities were a little too frequent, and some of the things he did were beyond his authority, which made him suspicious. In addition, the two doctors invited by the butler and the prescriptions prescribed by the doctors and the herbs they took were a little strange, which made him even more certain that the butler was the biggest suspect!
However, the city lord never thought that way, because the butler had been with him for decades and had worked hard for him, so he treated him like his own family member!
He didn't believe that the butler would betray him and poison him!
However, after hearing what was said in the receiver, the city lord believed it. Although he was unwilling to accept this reality, the reality was right in front of him.
Butler, poisoning, surrendering to the enemy!
"I really didn't expect this!" The city lord leaned against the head of the bed and sighed.
"Now that I'm breaking into the City Lord's Mansion at night, he must have discovered something. We should respond as soon as possible!" Shen Lang said in a low voice.
"I'll take care just rest assured!" The city lord nodded and looked at Shen Lang: "What are you going to do about the affairs of the three families?"
Shen Lang grinned when he heard it. Under the flickering light, his handsome face looked a little ferocious: "It's easy to do!"
When Qingsi, who was sitting next to them, heard this and looked at Shen Lang's somewhat ferocious face, she knew that these three people were going to be in trouble, and in big trouble!
Shen Lang did not ask the city lord how to do it, and the city lord did not ask either. He just said two words to Shen Lang.
"careful!"
Afterwards, Shen Lang and Qingsi left the city lord's room. The two of them stayed in the corridor for a while, then Shen Lang said goodbye to Qingsi and went home to sleep.
The next morning, Shen Lang washed up, changed into a black robe, took a paper fan, and went out with three steps in between. His mother Liang Wanrong asked Shen Lang to have breakfast before going out, but Shen Lang shook his head in response.
"No, mother. If you go too late, your beautiful daughter-in-law will be snatched away from you!"
After getting on the carriage, Shen Lang rushed to Tonghe Money House.
When he arrived at the door, Shen Lang was happy as soon as he got out of the car.
Wow, Miao Yunfei is really quick, coming to propose marriage early in the morning!
Shen Lang opened his fan with a swish, walked to the door with three steps, and said to the servant: "Shen Lang wants to see Miss Mingyue, please inform her!"
Seeing the person's temperament, the servant did not dare to neglect him and bowed, "Sir, wait a moment!"
He turned around and walked into the courtyard. Not long after, the servant came out again, looking apologetic: "Mr. Shen, I'm so sorry, my young lady is meeting guests in the hall and doesn't have time!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Lang smiled helplessly.
Do you want to force your way in again?
He broke into the city lord’s mansion last night, and is going to break into the Tonghe Money House today?
"Your young lady told you that she was meeting a guest and didn't have time?" Shen Lang looked at the servant and asked back.
"Uh... no!" The servant smiled awkwardly and answered truthfully. He didn't dare to lie. If the relationship between this man and the young lady was not simple, he would be in trouble if he was discovered!
"oh!"
Shen Lang fanned himself and nodded: "Okay, I understand!"
After saying that, he walked up to the servant and said, "I won't make it difficult for you. Just pretend you didn't see anything. I'll go in by myself!"
"Mr. Shen, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!" Sweat instantly broke out on the servant's forehead. He forced a smile on his embarrassed face and spoke to Shen Lang.
Looking at the servant who was in a dilemma, Shen Lang rolled his eyes and said, "In that case, I won't make it difficult for you!"
"Well, I can just shout a few words here, right?"
"This..." The servant scratched his head.
"This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. Aren't you a little ungrateful?" Shen Lang raised his eyebrows and threatened.
"I dare not, I dare not!" The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Please do as you please, but don't be too..."
Before he could finish his words, Shen Lang glared at him. He swallowed the words and dared not say anything else. He just stepped aside and looked at Shen Lang with embarrassment.
"Mingyue, your husband is here, come out quickly!" Shen Lang stood at the door and shouted at the top of his lungs.
The servant was so frightened by the shout that he almost fell to the ground. He thought of countless words that Shen Lang would shout, but he never expected it to be this one!
Inside, Miao Yunfei, the richest man in Baiyun City, is proposing marriage to the master with his son Miao Yi. If the proposal or the marriage fails because of me, my good days will be over!
Thinking of this, the servant knelt on the ground with a plop: "Master Shen, please stop shouting and spare me!"
Although he was a servant of Tonghe Money House and people outside looked up to him, but facing the young man in front of him, he was just an insignificant person!
The servant was kneeling and kowtowing, begging Shen Lang to stop shouting, when a cheerful and excited voice rang out from the courtyard.
"Husband, the moon is coming!"
Mingyue's shout scared Shen Lang!
My goodness, Qingsi has to avoid suspicion in front of the city lord, but you dare to shout like this at home. Are you really afraid that others don’t know?
Mingyue appeared at the door in a green robe. When she saw Shen Lang in black and holding a paper fan, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said with a smile, "My husband is so handsome in a black robe!" After that, she threw herself into Shen Lang's arms.
"Hey, hey, hey, calm down, calm down!" Shen Lang hugged Mingyue and said quickly: "Your family is watching you!"
"Just watch!" Mingyue pouted: "Do you know that someone came to propose marriage?"
"Who is it?" Shen Lang asked, even though he knew the answer.
"Miao Yi!" Mingyue spoke with a look of disgust: "It's so annoying!"
"It's him!" Shen Lang said with a smile, looking at Mingyue in his arms: "Then I have to check for you, don't let anyone cheat you!"
After saying that, he let go of her hand: "Come on, take me in and take a look!"
When Mingyue heard this, she blinked her big eyes, which curved into a pair of small crescents. She held Shen Lang's hand and nodded: "Okay, I'll take you to have a look!"
The two of them walked into the courtyard and into the hall hand in hand. In an instant, four pairs of eyes and eight gazes in the hall were all looking at Shen Lang and Mingyue, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Dad, he is Shen Lang, my husband!" Mingyue didn't care at all. She held Shen Lang's hand and refused to let go. She just stood in the hall and introduced him casually.
"Mingyue, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't be rude!" The middle-aged man sitting upright spoke with a serious face.
"Uncle, hello, aunt, hello!" Shen Lang took his hand out of Mingyue's without leaving a trace and bowed: "Oh, Uncle Miao is here too!"
"My dear nephew!" The embarrassment on Miao Yunfei's face flashed away, and then he waved to Shen Lang as a greeting.
"I just came in to take a look, it's okay, you guys continue, you guys continue!" After saying that, Shen Lang licked his face and sat down on the chair next to him, and Mingyue followed and sat next to Shen Lang.
The atmosphere became awkward!
Someone comes to propose marriage, and you, an outsider, are sitting here and watching. What are you thinking?
"My dear nephew, this is the Ming family's private matter. Isn't it inappropriate for you to be here?"
At this time, Mingyue's father Mingjun spoke. Although he had never met Shen Lang, he was very familiar with Shen Lang's parents and they had a pretty good relationship. They had some business dealings and a good personal relationship as well!
Even so, it's not good for a junior like you to get involved here!
