tsundere goddess in love with me

Gu Xiaorou sighed helplessly, "It would be great if we were in Ten Thousand Stars City. Dongfang Cheng has an absolute status. People in the Dongfang family will listen to us and support us."

"Here, just a Dongfang Lian will challenge him and refuse to obey him at all."

Lu Chuan shrugged helplessly, "I can't help it. Don't worry about those things. You can go back and continue practicing or rest."

"Ok."

The three of them returned to the courtyard, and Lu Chuan happened to see Li Xunying's figure.

After he also saw Lu Chuan, he walked over quickly.

"Li Xunying, have you discovered anything?"

"Master Lu, there were many people who took advantage of the darkness to act secretly last night. Their whereabouts were very hidden and they were careful. I didn't dare to follow them too closely."

Lu Chuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well done, let's talk about it now. Is there anything else?"

"Those people sneaked into the yards of various houses and what they did, I don't know."

"However, in the middle of the night, there was a scream in one house, which made everyone in the whole yard wake up. They seemed to be shouting that someone was missing or something."

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, "Did you see what these people looked like when they went back?"

"It was so dark that I could only make out an outline. They were carrying sacks and running toward the inner city."

After Lu Chuan thought for a moment, he said, "It seems that Wan Changdong is very anxious. He started to take action so soon. Is he afraid of me?"

"There was actually a house that night that someone broke into and kidnapped someone. It seems like this should be spread."

"That's right. There are a lot of people talking about this in the city now. Many people don't dare to let their children play outside anymore and are locked up at home."

Lu Chuan patted Li Xunying on the shoulder and said, "Yes, you continue to observe the situation and the situation in the inner city. If they have a convoy traveling, come and notify me."

"Are you afraid they will transport people out?"

"Yes, it's difficult for them to do anything in the inner city. They must find a hidden environment outside."

"I know, I'll do it right now."

Lu Chuan stopped him and asked, "Is there any influence from the Nangong family in the city?"

Li Xunying turned around and looked at Lu Chuan, "Yes, but it's not big. We do purchasing business here and don't run other businesses."

Lu Chuan waved to him, "Let's go, I've met someone from the Nangong family, I will help you find out about it."

Li Xunying nodded and clasped his fists, then turned around and left the yard.

"This Wan Changdong is quite fast. What are you going to do? If you want to prevent that guy from breaking through the realm, you need to rescue him."

Lu Chuan shrugged, "It depends on the situation. If you have the chance, do it."

……

At the same time, a carriage came from the direction of the gate of the inner city and parked aside.

A middle-aged man wearing blue clothes got out of the carriage.

He walked quickly towards the door.

"Masters, could you please inform the city lord that I, Xu Zhihua, am waiting for him outside. I have a major case to report. I hope the city lord can see me."

The guard waved his hand and said: "Go quickly and don't bother me. The city lord will not see anyone today. He is busy today."

"Why? I...I just gave him a big gift before. During the military recruitment, our Xu family also sent a hundred men."

"I, Xu Zhihua, have always supported the city lord's career. Go tell him and he will definitely meet me."

"What are you doing with him?"

"It's like this. My daughter is missing. She is less than ten years old. The whole family is like ants on a hot pot!"

"Can you please go into the inner city and help me tell the Lord of the City? He will definitely come out to see me."

"Get out of here quickly, the city lord is very busy today and doesn't have time to see anyone! Do you need me to say it a second time?"

Xu Zhihua froze on the spot, at a loss for a moment.

"Then...then I'll come back another day?"

"No matter what, don't bother our city lord in the next month!" Xu Zhihua took a deep breath and shook his head helplessly.

"At critical moments, you still have to rely on yourself..."

When the guard heard this, he immediately raised his spear, pointed it at Xu Zhihua, and yelled, "What did you say?"

Xu Zhihua quickly put his head in his hands, "I didn't say anything?"

"What you just said means that our city lord is unreliable? Is that right?"

"It's unfair, I never meant that!"

"Fart, you think I can't hear it, right? You old boy, you dare to complain to our city lord, you don't want to live, right? Aren't we always guarding this huge forest city? If it weren't for our city lord, you Do you deserve peace?"

The guard yelled through gritted teeth.

Xu Zhihua knelt down and swallowed nervously.

"You misunderstood. I just made a slip of the tongue. I definitely didn't mean it."

"Get out of here and don't disturb the peace of our city lord again!"

When Xu Zhihua heard this, he quickly got up and ran towards the carriage as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

After getting on the carriage, he breathed a sigh of relief with lingering fear.

"Master, why is this happening? How dare a mere city gate guard be so arrogant?"

"There is no way. The city lord must have given him instructions not to let anyone in."

"What should we do? Who else can help us find our daughter?"

The beautiful woman sitting next to Xu Zhihua asked crying.

"Go...go..."

"Go to Dongfang Mansion, talk to them about this matter, and see if there is anything going on."

"Dongfang family? What can we do with them? They won't help us either."

"Then who do you think will help? The Lu family? Or the city lord?"

"Then... let's try our luck."

The carriage turned around and headed in the direction of Dongfang Mansion.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the door of Dongfang Mansion.

Xu Zhihua quickly got out of the car, swept away the previous haze, and showed a bright smile on his face.

He walked forward quickly and came to the guard at the gate of Dongfang Mansion. "I'm here to see the master of Dongfang Mansion. Is he free now?"

"Let me go in and ask. Since you are the head of the Xu family, then the head of our Dongfang Mansion must meet you."

Immediately, the guard walked in.

Xu Zhihua breathed a sigh of relief and stood at the door waiting anxiously.

After a while, Dongfang Changzhi walked out and came to Xu Zhihua.

"Xu Zhihua, long time no see. You haven't caught up with me for a long time. Why did you think of me today?"

"Brother Changzhi, please don't blame me. I've been too busy recently. I came to you to ask for something."

"Tell me, I'll help as much as I can."

"It's like this. Last night, my daughter was kidnapped by a man in black. We sent people out to look for her, but she couldn't be found anywhere."

"We have no choice but to ask the city lord for help. After all, he is in charge of the security in the city."

"But the gate of the inner city was closed, and the city lord didn't see anyone. I had no choice but to come here. I hope the Dongfang family can help me find my precious daughter."

Hearing this, Dongfang Changzhi fell into deep thought.
