Chapter 146 Under threat

When Yun Xi heard him mention her mother's death, her heart twitched suddenly.Yun Xi remained unmoved on the surface, secretly sizing up Du Zhi.

"Miss Lu, the bronze box is not something you can have." Du Zhi tapped the table with his fingers.

Seeing that everyone was vying for this bronze box, Yun Xi couldn't help feeling that this bronze box must be something extraordinary, and there must be something in it.

"Officer Du, you are right. Although I am curious about this bronze box, I have never coveted it. You really misunderstood me." Yun Xi looked gentle and said calmly.

Du Zhi frowned, playing with the celadon teacup in his hand.

"Miss Lu, aren't you curious about your mother's death? Are you not curious about what the Lu family has done these years?"

Yun Xi pretended to be melancholy, sighed deeply, looked out of the window, and said with infinite emotion: "The past has long been smoked, and my mother certainly doesn't want me to be too entangled in her death. In this case, why don't I live happily. As for Lu It’s family matters, as long as they provide me with food and clothing.”

Du Zhi chuckled, "I didn't expect Miss Lu to be such an open-minded person."

"I'm just very open-minded. Officer Du, you should learn from me. My grandfather said that people who think too much tend to lose their hair."

"Really? No wonder I've lost a lot of hair recently. I'm afraid it's because I miss Miss Lu too much." Du Zhi looked at her jokingly.

Yun Xi blushed, she didn't expect that Du Zhi, who looked at the seriousness, had such a sullen side, did he plan to take the emotional route after being unable to attack?

Du Zhi looked at Yun Xi's shy look, and found it a little funny.

"Miss Lu, if you can hand over the bronze box, I will definitely grant you one wish." Du Zhi looked serious.

The face-changing became really fast, he really was a boring officer, Yun Xi thought.

"Officer Du, you may not be able to fulfill my wish. Besides, the little girl really doesn't know what kind of bronze box you are talking about." Yun Xi pretended to be frank and sincere.

Du Zhi snorted softly, "Miss Lu, do you know about this bronze box? This officer is naturally aware of it."

"Officer Du, I don't know if you have counted or not. But I can be sure that I have never seen this bronze box. This is the first time I heard about it from you. Before that, I didn't even know what kind of bronze box it is." Yun Xi felt that the officer was really difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect that the bronze box was so important. She became more and more interested in this box, so she would not obediently say it anyway.

"It seems that Ms. Lu is determined not to tell Du." Du Zhi's tone was tinged with coldness.

What, do you want to do something?Yun Xi squeezed the poisonous needle hidden in her waist, if Du Zhi wanted to force her, she would never be merciless.

"Officer Du, I said I don't know, why are you chasing me so hard? Are you always so annoying? If you have time to ask me, why don't you go and investigate. Yun Xi frowned, and asked me Looking at him impatiently.

Du Zhi noticed the small movements of her pinching the silver needle, he didn't intend to use coercive means, anyway, Miss Lu has been at the Lu family, he doesn't have to worry about her running away, she doesn't want to say, he has other means Make her hand over the bronze box.

"Since Ms. Lu is determined not to disclose it, then it's better for Du to force others, lest Ms. Lu say that Du is bullying you." Du Zhi got up and was about to leave.

"Thank you, Officer Du, let's go slowly, officer." Yun Xi also stood up.

"But Ms. Lu, I still hope you can think it over carefully. I will give you three more days, and I will come back to hear your answer after three days. If Ms. Lu is still like this, the consequences may not be as easy as today." Du Zhishen After taking a deep look at Yun Xi, he left with his sergeant.

Did I get scared and threatened me.Yun Xi watched his leaving back, secretly unhappy.

Patriarch Lu saw Du Zhi coming out of Yunxi's room, and hurriedly went to see off the guests, and asked with a low eyebrow, "Officer, are you satisfied with my daughter?"

"Not bad, Mr. Lu, to raise such a good girl." Du Zhi looked at him coldly.

Seeing Du Zhi walking away, Yun Xi felt even more uneasy when he thought of the bronze box.The ancients said that it was a crime to conceive a jade. She was a little worried that the box would cause unnecessary disasters, but she was unwilling to let her give the box to others. After all, the box could be used as a bargaining chip with others.Others... Huo Haochen's handsome face appeared in Yunxi's mind. "Why do you think of that pervert?! The next time I see him, we will settle the old and new debts together!" Yun Xi said bitterly.

"Oh, what kind of pervert? Does anyone dare to bully our lady?" Tang Youyou came in from the door and looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Yuyou! After you close the door, come here quickly, I want to tell you something important." Yun Xi waved to her.

"What's the matter? Du Zhi proposed to you?" Tang Youyou's eyes lit up, his face full of gossip.

"Hey, it's this time and you still have time to joke with me and talk about business." Yun Xi pretended to be annoyed.

"Okay, miss, please tell me, this servant will listen attentively." Tang Youyou looked serious.

Yun Xi gave her a blank look, but she didn't expect Tang Youyou to be quite good at playing master-servant games.Yun Xi told Tang Youyou exactly what Du Zhi had said to her just now.

"Du Zhi has already noticed that the bronze box is with me, and he seems to value this box very much." Yun Xi frowned with a trace of annoyance.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect this bronze box to be such a treasure. No wonder, Huo Haochen asked you for this box repeatedly, and Du Zhi also came to join in the fun." Tang Youyou played with the teacup Du Zhi was holding just now.

"I didn't know this bronze box was such a sought-after treasure before." Yun Xi's tone was full of worry.

Sensing her thoughts, Tang Youyou was about to step up and pat her on the shoulder to comfort her, but was stopped by a knock on the door.

"Yun Xi, are you there?" Patriarch Lu's voice came from outside the door.

"Yes." Yun Xi retracted her expression, and gestured to Tang Youyou with her eyes.Tang Youyou immediately put on a respectful look like a maid.

Patriarch Lu pushed the door open, looked at Yun Xi with a happy face, and said, "It was my fault that I agreed to help you get married that day, but today the officer seems to be very satisfied with you, so..."

Yun Xi guessed that Patriarch Lu must have some reason to be caught by Du Zhi, that's why she was so eager to get her engaged early.

"Father, my daughter knows what you think, and she will think about it for a few days." Yun Xi lowered her brows pretending to be shy.
With a smile on his brows, Patriarch Lu exchanged a few words with Yun Xi, then asked Tang You You to take good care of Yun Xi, and then left.

"Attack from inside and outside, the situation is not good for us!" Seeing Patriarch Lu leave, Tang Youyou let go of his tense nerves.

"Yeah, what should I do?" Yun Xi was a little confused, she hadn't thought of this incident before.

"How about finding Huo Haochen?" Tang Youyou looked at Yun Xi with a playful smile.
