ch 118 â Lots of Drama; Beautiful Scholar (11)
âThatâs it? Are Deacon Bai and Deacon Lin idiots? Why couldnât they do that?â Zhu Xiangyu was disgruntled about their two subordinates.
Corners of Zhu Boâs mouth formed a mysterious smile, âI donât know if they are idiots, all I know was that they couldnât rival the Chengâs. I should say, they couldnât rival Cheng Xiao Xiao!â
âCheng Xiao Xiao? Is she Cheng Biyuanâs daughter?â Zhu Xiangyu was a bit surprised, âYou mean to say that Cheng Xiao Xiao is more powerful than her father Cheng Biyuan?â
âI canât guarantee whether she is more powerful than Cheng Biyuan. But in addition to making sure our delivery arrive safely, you also need to figure out whether the Chengâs father and sons are the master beast tamers or whether it is the hidden Cheng Xiao Xiao. From Deacon Bai and Deacon Linâs reports, it seems the maiden Cheng Xiao Xiao was the real master beast tamer!â
Hearing his fatherâs words, a bright smile filled Zhu Xiangyuâs beautiful face. He nodded, âThis is interesting. A 16-year-old master beast tamer will definitely be more powerful than Cheng Biyuan!â
âXiangâer, thereâs one more thing that youâd really need to look into!â said Zhu Bo as solemnly as he could.
Zhu Xiangyu noticed his dadâs solemnness and cautiousness so he, too, became more serious, âDad, do tell!â
âEverything the Chengâs has came so abruptly. You will need to find out where all of them came from!â
âHuh?â
After hearing that, Zhu Xiangyu paused for a second and became quiet. Zhu Bo knew that his son was pondering about it so he didnât interrupt him.
After a while, Zhu Xiangyu looked up and said, âDad, you are right. All of the Chengâs possessions appeared about 6 months ago. Cheng Biyuan and his family have settled down in Willow for three whole years. They have always been a normal family. If it wasnât for the mystical animals, nobody would ever notice such a small village.â
ââŠ.â Zhu Bo nodded and didnât say anything!
Zhu Xiangyu continued to ponder as he talked, âRumored had it that Cheng Biyuan sustained serious injuries and couldnât even get out of bed six months ago. Thatâs when the mystical well appeared behind his house. Then it was the appearances of the ranch and the pond and all the other mystical animals. Everything came by so suddenly. These obviously didnât belong to the Chengâs originally!â
âYou are exactly right, Xiangâer. Good analysis. According to Innkeeper Zhu and Deacon Baiâs investigation, all their possessions seemed to have appeared out of the blue, as though they were gifted to them. Isnât that odd?â
âThat is very odd, indeed!â
Both the father and son were dumbfounded. They couldnât figure out where all the Chengâs possessions came from, each item more impressive than the last!
âSince it is so odd, we must figure out what is going on!â Zhu Bo gave his own son a look and smiled lightly, âYou should be able to handle this, right?â
âWell, thatâs hard to say!â Zhu Xiangyu didnât pound his chest and make any big promises, but the twinkles in his eyes looked as though he was taking some sort of an oath.
Zhu Bo gave a quick knock on the top of the table and reminded his son, âMaybe you will find the answer when you make the delivery to the Chengâs!â
âOh, okay, I will give it a try!â
After the father and son had came to a conclusion, Zhu Bo told his son the list of items that Cheng Xiao Xiao had asked for. Upon hearing that, Zhu Xiangyu was even more curious than before. He slammed his palm on the table and decided to head toward the city of Daling as soon as humanly possible.
