Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart - Chapter 391
Chapter 391: This Was Weiwei’s Personal Possession
Long Qingzhi felt more at ease at her brother’s steadfast tone.
It was only right that she believed in her brother’s choice.
He was no longer a child. If Second Miss Lu was such a terrible person, how would someone like her brother even fell for her?
She was ashamed of her shallowness.
“Alright. I’m looking forward to meeting her,” she said sincerely.
Long Yang nodded when he saw that she was not as averted to this as before.
He would never allow anyone to badmouth Weiwei, even if it was his sister.
He held on to the reins with one hand and reached into his pocket with the other hand to take an item out of it.
It was a silk handkerchief. There was nothing on it, not even an embroidered design on it, but looking at it was enough to make him feel happy.
This was Weiwei’s personal possession that he had managed to obtain.
His fingers gently brushed against it and he placed the handkerchief on his nose to gently take in the scent. It was a faint fragrance, a scent that belonged to her.
Long Qingzhi smiled when she saw the object in his hand.
It looked like her brother genuinely liked this girl.
However, she started to get worried at the thought of her brother’s health.
If her brother’s health was fine, why would he not have any children after all these years and instead, appointed Long Chi as the Heir Apparent?
Hopefully, it was not because of what she was thinking about.
Imperial capital.
Lin Qingyuan was holding a broken bowl as she begged along the street for half the day. She suffered many judgmental looks, but she did not care. She was not really begging for food, anyway. She still had silver teals given to her by Lu Liangwei.
Her main goal was to spy on Chen Xuping and Drunk Fragrance Pavilion. However, it has been quite a while and Chen Xuping hardly left his home. There was also no sign of anything happening at Drunk Fragrance Pavilion.
She was starting to feel defeated, and could not help feeling anxious.
That scumbag, Chen Xuping, was so cautious.
When could she ever get evidence of his wrongdoings if things continued to be this way?
She was walking in frustration when she suddenly heard a short scream.
She jumped and turned immediately toward the source of the scream.
An oxcart was parked there as two huge, burly men picked up two women from the ground and flung them onto the cart. They immediately covered and concealed them with dry hay.
Lin Qingyuan’s eyes widened slightly.
Human traffickers?
As she was thinking about this, the two men spotted her, and murderous looks immediately crossed their faces. However, they relaxed upon noticing her torn and tattered clothes, thinking she was nothing but a beggar whom they figured would not say much.
The task at hand was more important. They had to take these women away as soon as possible.
With that, the two men drove the oxcart and headed toward the other side of the alleyway.
Lin Qingyuan heaved a sigh of relief when she saw them gone.
She had noticed the two men’s intentions to kill her.
However, for some reason, they had decided to let her go.
That said, she had clearly seen them throwing the two women onto the oxcart.
If she was correct, one of those women was Chen Xuping’s stepsister, Chen Qiyu.
She had never liked Chen Qiyu because of Chen Xuping. In fact, she looked down on Chen Qiyu, seeing her to be seductive with an indecent character.
Even now, she still did not like Chen Qiyu. However, this was no longer an issue of likeability because Lin Qingyuan herself was no better. Otherwise, how would she have ended up liking a scumbag like Chen Xuping?
Back to the problem at hand, Chen Qiyu was supposed to be a concubine of the Crown Prince and living in the Eastern Palace now, right? What was she doing here getting knocked out by someone and flung onto an oxcart?
Lin Qingyuan suddenly remembered that Lu Yunshuang also lived in the Eastern Palace.
Lu Yunshuang, Chen Xuping, and Chen Qiyu…
She suddenly understood what was going on.
Lin Qingyuan had accidentally overheard Chen Xuping and Lu Yunshuang scheming about something in Drunk Fragrance Pavilion the last time. It had something to do with kidnapping women.
Was Chen Qiyu set up by Lu Yunshuang?
