Trafford's Trading Club

You Ye asked curiously, “Master, have you finished eating?”

She looked at the porcelain bowl on the table, which was almost completely emptied by the master… but it seemed a bit odd, as if she hadn’t seen the master eat that much…

“Yeah, the taste was so good, I finished it before I knew it.” Luo Qiu stretched lazily, stood up, and casually closed the account book on the table.

You Ye softly asked, “Master, are you going back?”

“Yes.” Luo Qiu nodded, “It’s been a while since I last went back.”

You Ye was slightly surprised, then reacted, “You mean… Ms. Ren.”

“You can come too.” Luo Qiu nodded, extending a hand to You Ye.

…

…

Almost midnight.

In a corner of the dark night.

A hand rose and fell—a hand chop.

The person lurking in the darkness was simply hit on the ground by a single hand chop. But before this person even landed, they were already supported by someone.

The person supporting the unconscious lurker was Jessica, and the one who knocked the person out was evidently her current master… Su Zijun.

After placing the unconscious person aside, Jessica looked at Su Zijun with some confusion.

Logically, this lurker should be here to monitor something, but even so, it shouldn’t have anything to do with her, right? She didn’t understand the purpose of Su Zijun’s actions.

Su Zijun looked at the villa area not far away and said, “That place is considered my family’s property, with some acquaintances living inside. I don’t like this guy monitoring here.”

This made Jessica even more puzzled… in this case, shouldn’t it be better to capture and interrogate the person?

Su Zijun said, “This guy lurking here is a ‘Silver Sword Warchief,’ sort of my retainer.”

So, your retainer is lurking here to monitor your acquaintances living in your family property… Jessica only felt the relationship seemed a bit convoluted.

“Big sis!!”

But at this time, a slightly excited voice suddenly sounded in the darkness.

Jessica was startled, and the Alliance assumed a defensive stance, but then a shadow emerged from the darkness at a speed difficult for Jessica to track, appearing before her.

It was a very handsome young man, but his face was somewhat pale… furthermore, the youth’s lips were very thin, seemingly carrying a hint of mysterious purple.

After this youth appeared, his expression was very agitated… but at least there was no sign of threat, and he seemed to be an old acquaintance of her master?

Big sis… is he her master’s brother?

“Ghost Baby… why are you here?” Su Zijun frowned at this moment.

Evidently, encountering Ghost Baby here was unexpected, but not too surprising. Ghost Baby’s origin was very special, with a sensitivity to auras that was a unique ability of his species, even she herself might be noticed if not careful.

“Mr. Gui asked me to run some errands, and I just happened to return and check the situation here.” Ghost Baby directly explained.

“Here?” Su Zijun frowned, “Since you know this place is being watched, why didn’t you do something about it?”

Ghost Baby said, “Mr. Gui said that since we know who placed this hidden post, there’s no need to alert them. After all, even if one is removed, another will be placed as a replacement, so it doesn’t really matter.”

“I bet that old turtle is just too lazy.” Su Zijun showed a look of disdain.

She glanced at Ghost Baby, noticing he was holding something like a file folder, making her slightly curious—yet Ghost Baby quickly tried to hide the folder.

But he soon realized that such an action would only make Su Zijun more suspicious, given Su Zijun’s personality…

“Hand it over.”

Sure enough, Su Zijun issued the command without hesitation.

Ghost Baby always prioritized Su Zijun’s orders over Gui Qianyi’s, so he straightforwardly handed the folder to Su Zijun.

Hmm… Mr. Gui, sorry about this.

Seeing Ghost Baby’s odd expression, Su Zijun became even more intrigued by the contents of the folder… She opened it and pulled out its contents, only to find a stack of photos, and started frowning as she looked through them.

“When did that dirty old turtle develop such an interest??”

There were photos of a little girl either angry, silent, or smiling…

“As for Mr. Gui’s interest, I wouldn’t know, Big Sis.” Ghost Baby said with his head down.

Su Zijun suspiciously glanced at Ghost Baby, then continued to stare at the photos and suddenly said, “Who’s this little girl? She looks so familiar, and for some reason, the more I look at her, the angrier I get…”

Lord Long, I might have to apologize to you too…

“Actually, she’s…”
