Her offer price was definitely not high, and Bai Xin was a big celebrity in the Thousand Creations Workshop. If the offer was made at 20 million gold taels, who knew how many rich young masters would line up to go to the moat with gold coins.

However, the lord of Fu's Family was not short on money, so he refused.

Speaking of which, the reward he gave to Bai Xin was already over ten million taels. Why wouldn't he be willing to redeem Bai Xin's life?

The old procuress said, "Be careful. It's better for you to keep your valuables at the bank. We have a lot of people coming and going, and you won't be able to find any thieves."

Bai Xin vaguely replied and quickened his pace to leave.

After returning to her room, Bai Xin locked the door and walked over to the dressing table. After confirming that there was no one around, she leaned over the counter and opened a small lock, removing the entire mirror. Behind the mirror, there was a small flat space, inside which were many banknotes and two jade pendants.

The jade pendant was given to her by Fu Ziyan. It was said to be a rare and beautiful jade, and was hard to find in this world.

She had always been extremely valuable. When she woke up this morning, she discovered that the surface of the mirror had traces of being opened. After checking, sure enough, it had been stolen.

When she ordered someone to find Fu Ziyan, she originally wanted to tell him the truth. However, she changed her mind midway.

She vaguely felt that Fu Ziyan was especially concerned about that jade pendant.

At first, she didn't think anything was amiss; she only thought that Fu Ziyan cared about the jade pendants because he didn't want to give it to her until he gave her the second one. Every time he came, he would personally confirm that the two pendants were in good condition.

Today, the second one had been stolen. Compared to the first one, both the color and the carvings were much better.

Subconsciously, she didn't dare to speak the truth anymore.

No one knew what they were worried about, but they still felt uneasy.

Thus, Fu Ziyan seemed to be in a bad mood today. Her soft words were kind, but he wasn't in the mood to look at the jade pendant.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get past this lie.

Actually, Bai Xin didn't understand. If that jade pendant was so rare, how could Fu Ziyan give it to her one after another? If she was really that reluctant, and gave it to her, why did she have to be so sure?

It was as if he had just left it with her for the time being.

She could not find the jade pendant, but to prevent Fu Ziyan from discovering it the next time, she needed to find a similar one in the next few days so that she could fish in troubled waters.

Since she had a plan in her mind, she didn't have time to rest. Instead, she ordered her personal servant girl to come over and whisper to her.

At the same time, in an inn at the outskirts of Qingzhou.

Xing Yi listened to his subordinate's report and furrowed his brows fiercely. "Haven't found it yet? Did you really search carefully? "

His subordinate nodded, "I can confirm that Yao Guang stayed in Qingzhou before he left for the capital. He had his guests register at a rich and powerful inn in the city and also found some clues. Furthermore, during the past ten days, both Fu's Family and Fu Ziyan's courtyard have been searched thoroughly, and they have indeed not found anything. Furthermore, a companion of theirs was lurking in the night, and had revealed his identity. It's fortunate that Fu Ziyan was in a state of confusion and absent-mindedness during these two days, and did not notice anything amiss, otherwise, it would be even more difficult to find him. "

Xing Yi pursed his lips and warned, "Be careful in all matters. Master has instructed me not to alert the enemy."

His subordinate acknowledged and then mentioned: "Today, Fu Ziyan has gone to Flowing Cloud Lane."

Xing Yi was startled: "Flowery Lane?"

The subordinate nodded, "Fu Ziyan's side room has already been investigated, and there is nothing to be gained. Could it be that he has a woman in the place of fireworks? That thing was placed there?"

The subordinate shook his head. "Qiu Yi is in charge of following Fu Ziyan around. This matter was reported by him, but he said that he did not find anything amiss."

"Call for enmity."

Before long, an ordinary-looking young man pushed open the door and walked in.

He did not knock on the door. It was obvious that he did not have this habit in the past. After entering, he did not have this courtesy either. He pulled a chair over and sat down, saying lazily: "If you have something to say, say it."

Xing Yi saw Wu Qing in the corner of her eyes, and knew that she was looking for something and was following Fu Ziyan for a few days. She had not slept for a long time, and was feeling extremely annoyed, so she made the long story short: "I heard that Fu Ziyan went to Liulian Lane today?"

Chou Yi looked at him and answered with a "En".

"To do what?"

"To his old lover." As Chou Yi said this, he shifted his posture and relaxed his body, "The leader of Thousand Creations Workshop, doesn't seem to be hiding this from us. I'm afraid we don't know about this person."

Xing Yi said: "Then let's check out the Thousand Creations Workshop today."

"You don't need to say that." The enemy said, "Yes, we have. Take action now."

Xing Yi nodded, seeing that his enemy's eyes were half closed, as if she was about to fall asleep at any moment, she advised: "Whether or not you find him, come back tomorrow morning and sleep."

Chou Yi stood up from his chair and walked outside, waving to show that he understood.

Xing Yi called him back and asked: "Did nothing happen on the way from Liaozhou? I always felt that something was wrong with you. "

Chou Yi stopped and turned back to look at him. "What's wrong?"

"I don't know. I just felt something was wrong." Xing Yi raised her foot and slowly walked to the man, staring at her eyebrows, she suddenly asked: "Do you still remember the first time we met?"

Chou Yi looked at him silently.

Xing Yi raised her eyebrows, "You don't remember? I thought you would be deeply impressed. After all, at that time … "

"You wet the bed."

Enmity: "..."

Chou Yi said: "Don't test me, I haven't tested you yet. After staying in the capital for a while, you've changed a lot too. Who is that Lady Jin?"

Xing Yi frowned.

Chou Yi said, "Don't forget, in our line of work, even if we don't have a tomorrow, we will still be a burden."

"Stop joking." Xing Yi laughed, "No matter what, I will not find someone to marry."

"Remember what you said today." Chou Yi replied and left.
