CapĂtulo 2065: Chapter 2065: Smelling the Aroma of Grilled Meat
âNo matter who it is, weâll just have to deal with it as it comes,â Gu Qingheng evidently understood Yang Ruxinâs doubts, âLetâs not get caught up in it now.â
Yang Ruxin raised her eyes to look at Gu Qingheng, âI always feel that besides those two cults, thereâs another hand manipulating everything behind the scenes.â
âSomeone else behind it?â Gu Qingheng was quite surprised.
Yang Ruxin exhaled, âItâs just a subconscious feeling, maybe Iâm overthinking it. Whenever something bad happens recently, I get this notion flashing across my mind.â She had that feeling ever since Wang Zhengzhengâs death.
Gu Qinghengâs brow furrowed too; he trusted his wifeâs intuition, and if this were true, then it wouldnât be good at all. After all, the opponent was in the shadows, and neither their goals nor methods were known, nor what theyâd do next. It created a chilling sensation.
âGirl, hurry and come roast the meat, itâs all gone,â at this moment Dao Xuzi was shouting, breaking the coupleâs chain of thought.
âOn my way, such a foodie,â Yang Ruxin sighed, resigning herself to the role of a cook.
âCousin-in-law, why do I find things made by you taste better than others?â Shu Luo wondered as he ate, âSeems like you didnât do anything special.â
Yang Ruxin raised her eyes, âBecause people are different, even if itâs the same thing, using the same method, the taste is different.â
âMakes sense,â Shu Luo nodded, âAh, I really want to stay hereâŠâ
âYour surname is Shu,â Gu Qingheng glanced sideways at this cousin, âStaying at the Gu Family or Yang Family, what does that count for?â
Shu Luo pursed his lips.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The two escaped men in black quickly arrived at a relatively secluded place at the foot of the mountain, kneeling on one knee before a carriage, âGreetings, Master.â
âWhat happened?â A deep voice came from inside the carriage.
âWellâŠâ The two subordinates hesitated for a moment, then recounted the events, before bowing their heads and kneeling there, waiting for their masterâs judgment.
âUseless.â After a moment of silence, the person inside the carriage suddenly shouted sharply, henchmen were flung away by a powerful force streaming out.
The two kneeling on the ground cried out in pain as they were thrown two somersaults.
But soon they got back up, although blood dripped from the corners of their mouths, their lives were preserved. They couldnât help but breathe a sigh of relief; though they were slaves, they were still humans, who wouldnât genuinely be afraid of death?
âWere they really just having a picnic?â The voice of doubt from inside the carriage arose again.
âWhat we saw was indeed like that, we could smell the barbecue aroma from far away,â the two men in black hurriedly spoke in unison, âBut before getting close, we were discovered in front, so we had to escape.â The aroma was enticing; though they had eaten much meat, they couldnât recall any that tempted them so much.
âContinue to keep an eye on them from outside.â As soon as the man inside finished speaking, the carriage turned and left with a clatter.
Two days later, Shu Xing had sketched out the mine map of Death Valley, âThe iron ore deposit below should be enormous, but weâll have to mine it to know specificsâŠâ
âThank you for your hard work, Grandpa,â Gu Qingheng smiled excitedly.
âGeneral, madam, thereâs a lady named Yunxiong outside requesting to see you,â the butler Du Chengxiu reported at the doorway.
