“What did you say?!”


    Sara was absolutely furious at that moment!


    Having lived for four centuries, she had chosen to overlook almost everything for the past three hundred years.


    In thesest three hundred years, he was the very first person who dared to proim he would sever his own head!<fn8> Updates are released by FindN0vel</fn8>


    Chen Zhimin, on the other end of the line, was startled by Sara’s furious outburst. He quickly bowed and said, “Please forgive me, my lord. This subordinate was merely recounting what the thief said, and meant no disrespect…”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Though Sara understood that Chen Zhimin was simply rying information, her anger still simmered within.


    Worried that her rage might escte, Chen Zhimin hastily added, “My lord, I am willing to share your burdens. My nephew will be heading to Aurous Hill, and I promise to do everything in my power to uncover the identity of this mysterious individual for you!”


    Sara replied coldly, “If you go there now, you’re walking into a trap.”


    Chen Zhimin quickly countered, “My lord, Dong Liqin is dead. The likelihood of suspecting your subordinates is quite low. Moreover, even if they do suspect your subordinates, without solid evidence, I doubt they can take action against them. Remember, your subordinates are the son-inw of the An family, Tablita’s husband, and have always been highly regarded by An Qishan…”


    Sara scoffed, “The An family is far more cunning than you realize. Once Dong Liqin’s situation is revealed, they will never trust anyone with a foreign surname, even if you are An Qishan’s son-inw. If they have any doubts about you, they will not let you go easily.”


    Chen Zhimin couldn’t help but voice his concern, “But Lord Ying… our current situation is incredibly passive. If we don’t uncover the master’s identity, we won’t have a moment’s peace!”


    Sara retorted with a cold snort, “If Willie can’t handle that mysterious master, then it’s even less likely that you’ll find any clues. You might end up getting caught, tortured, and revealing even more secrets.”


    Chen Zhimin paused for a moment before saying, “Master Ying, I’m simply expressing my concerns. The recent events involving the An family are too significant to ignore. If I don’t go to Aurous Hill, they will certainly suspect me. How will I face that?”


    Sara replied calmly, “Don’t worry. Since the An family already has doubts about you, you won’t be able to pass this test. However, there’s one thing you can hold onto: your connection with Tablita’s daughter. Keep this advantage close; it may prove useful down the line. For now, don’t sever ties with the An family. Focus on taking care of your children in the United States. The An family won’t be leaving Aurous Hill anytime soon, and they likely won’t pursue you aggressively for the moment. Let’s maintain this unspoken understanding and keep each other in check.”


    Chen Zhimin responded respectfully, “Your subordinates willply!”

    At that time, Charlie had just mastered the techniques for concealing both his aura and presence. He drove to Zijin Vi to pick up Lin Wan’er (ni) so they could head to the airport together.


    Upon arriving at Zijin Vi, he saw Qiu Yingshan (Curtis), Sun Zhidong (Meir), Lao Zhang, and an elderlydy who appeared to be around seventy years old waiting respectfully at the vi’s entrance.


    As Charlie pulled up in the car, the four quickly approached and stood attentively by the car door.


    Charlie exited the vehicle, and in unison, they bowed to him, saying respectfully, “Mr. Wade!”


    “I’m just fine, thank you,” Charlie replied with a smile.


    As he spoke, he nced at the elderlydy beside Qiu Yingshan (Curtis) and asked curiously, “You must be Mrs. Qiu, right?”
