143 She Bet That Her Father Must Have Looked For Her Ninth Imperial Uncle!
As expected, after Bi Tao left the room, Lin Xiao’an heard Yu Linlang’s voice.
“Lin Xiao’an, come here.”
Lin Xiao’an slowly floated in front of Yu Linlang. Looking at her haggard face that couldn’t be hidden even with thick makeup, she couldn’t help but be overjoyed, but she didn’t show it on her face.
“What can I do for you?”
As Yu Linlang combed her hair with a comb, she asked Lin Xiao’an, “You said before that there’s an organization in your world that specializes in doing good deeds. What’s it called?”
Lin Xiao’an knew that Yu Linlang was trying to cause trouble and looked at her warily. “Don’t tell me you want to set up a welfare home here.”
Yu Linlang picked up a light blue flower and pinned it into the bun by her ear. She smiled and said, “Why not? Isn’t this doing a good deed?”
Lin Xiao’an said nothing.
“However, I’m not very good at such things. You have to teach me what to do,” Yu Linlang said. She glanced at the silver chains binding Lin Xiao’an. “Lin Xiao’an, if you help me do a good job, I’ll definitely build a sacrificial temple for you in the future when I’m in the limelight.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiao’an rolled her eyes inwardly and agreed with a smile, “Alright, I’ll help you.”
When Yu Linlang followed Granny Shen to the garden to learn the rules, Shen Yaowei returned to the Shen residence and arrived at the small bamboo forest behind Yu Linlang’s room.
In the dense bamboo forest, there was a breeze. The sunlight couldn’t penetrate the dense leaves, so it was especially shady.
Shen Yaowei was wearing a black cloak that wrapped her body tightly. She wore a butterfly mask that hid her identity and stood in the bamboo forest for a while before seeing Lin Xiao’an appear.
Lin Xiao’an went straight to the point and told Shen Yaowei that Yu Linlang wanted to open a welfare institute.
Shen Yaowei narrowed her eyes and understood.
Ever since the last time Yu Linlang and Huo Zhao’s affair was exposed in public, their reputation had plummeted in the capital.
Yu Linlang, who had always cherished her face, must be thinking of a way to save her reputation now.
It was indeed a better way to do good.
“If she really doesn’t intend to harm anyone, let her do it,” Shen Yaowei said. She smiled and changed the topic. “Last time, you told me in time that Yu Linlang wanted to drug Shen Yaowei. I’ll thank you on her behalf.”
Lin Xiao’an smiled shyly and waved his hand. “This is what I should do. Yu Linlang’s methods are too dirty. I can’t just watch her harm other girls.”
Shen Yaowei nodded slightly. “You’re not far from freedom. Be careful. We’ll contact you if anything happens.”
With that, she put the hood of her cloak on her head and turned to walk deeper into the bamboo forest.
In just a few breaths, the small figure disappeared in front of Lin Xiao’an.
At noon, Shen Yaowei stayed at the Shen residence for lunch.
Shen Yaowei had already changed into her normal clothes. She was dressed in a pomegranate-red gauze dress with a light red shawl. The two round buns on her head were dotted with red tassels, making her face look even more soft and cute.
Apart from Shen Yaowei, there was also Shen Liu’an, Shen Yifeng, Shen Yeyin, and Shen Yuyan at the dining table.
“Father, are you going on a long trip tonight?” Shen Yaowei had just heard Granny Yuan mention this. She picked up a drumstick for Shen Liu’an and asked.
After being fed by his daughter, Shen Liu’an’s eyes were about to disappear from laughter. “Yes, I’m going out to handle official business.”
Shen Yaowei couldn’t help but think that there was still no news of her Ninth Imperial Uncle. Now that her father was going on a long trip, could there be some connection between the two?
At the thought of this, a dark glint flashed across Shen Yaowei’s eyes. She asked Shen Liu’an, “Father, can you bring Yaoyao along this time?”
She dared to bet that her father must have gone to look for her Ninth Imperial Uncle!
