1077: Chapter 1037: Found the Clue 1077: Chapter 1037: Found the Clue Lu Chuan looked up at the Shop Assistant curiously and asked, “Didn’t you say that you would answer whatever I asked?”
“Are you familiar with Wan Qingxue?”
“If you know her, then speak clearly.
I’m looking for her because I have important matters.”
The Shop Assistant put his hand back awkwardly and scratched his head, “What Wan Qingxue?
I don’t know her.
You’d better ask sowhere else, I need to leave now, goodbye!”
“Hey, don’t you want the gold bar anymore?”
“I don’t want it anymore.
Keep it safe, I’m leaving now, call if you need anything.”
He hurriedly turned and quickly left the place.
Lu Chuan watched his retreating figure, touching his chin curiously.
“This guy’s reaction is very strange.
I feel like he definitely knows sothing.”
“If anyone knows the most, I think it must be the owner of this tea house.”
Lu Chuan looked at Su Changyue and said, “Do you think there’s sothing off about this place?”
“The Shop Assistant’s reaction just now was indeed a bit problematic.
He might be afraid to reveal anything about Wan Qingxue.
After all, Wan Qingxue is very powerful and holds a high status.
Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to et her.”
Lu Chuan nodded seriously, “It seems necessary for to et the owner here.”
“If you ask the owner, he should be able to provide so useful information.
Since that’s the case, I need to think of a thod.”
Lu Chuan thought for a mont and then suddenly had an idea.
“Go talk to the Shopkeeper and say that the Su family wants to buy this tea house, see if that can lure the owner out.”
Su Changyue, looking puzzled, said, “This tea house is very expensive.
Buying it would cost us a lot.”
“We’re not really buying it; we just need to bring the owner out.”
Su Changyue nodded slightly, “Alright, I’ll try…”
She then stood up and walked towards the counter.
“Hey, do you recognize ?”
When the Shopkeeper saw Su Changyue, he hurriedly said with a smile, “Of course I recognize you.
You are the precious Miss Su of the Su family, how could I not recognize you?”
He said with a laugh.
“I have sothing very important to tell you.
Our Su family is recently interested in buying this tea house, but we need to discuss the specifics.
My father sent to talk to you first.”
“Now, go call your boss over, I need to talk to him.”
The Shopkeeper frowned upon hearing this.
He looked at Su Changyue and asked curiously, “What does your Su family want with a tea house?”
“That’s not for you to ask, just go bring your boss here.”
“Well…
alright then…”
He reluctantly turned and went upstairs.
Su Changyue returned to her seat and said to Lu Chuan, “It’s done; the boss will co soon.”
After a mont, a figure slowly approached.
A middle-aged man dressed in dark green regal attire ca over, smiling at everyone.
“Everyone, you were looking for ?”
Su Changyue looked at Lu Chuan, “You take it from here.
I’ve done what I could.”
Lu Chuan looked at the owner and asked, “I have one question.”
“Do you know Wan Qingxue?”
The owner imdiately frowned, sweat breaking out on his forehead.
“Uh…sir, why are you asking this?
I ca here to talk business with Miss Su, not you.”
“Miss Su Changyue, your Su family’s purchase offer, forgive my rudeness, I cannot accept it.
With that said, I should return.”
Lu Chuan grabbed the owner’s arm and stood up, speaking seriously, “You’d better tell everything you know, otherwise you won’t be able to leave.”
“Heh, on what basis are you stopping ?
Who are you?
Do you think just because you are on my turf, you can stop ?”
“That’s laughable.
I advise you to let go of quickly, otherwise, I’ll call security and you’ll get a beating!”
He threatened confidently.
Lu Chuan said indifferently, “My na is Lu Chuan, and I am indeed stopping you today.
Why don’t you go call soone now?”
Hearing this, the owner was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Lu Chuan.
“You…what did you just say?
You are Lu Chuan?”
“The sa Lu Chuan who killed Ming Baixuan?”
He nervously swallowed.
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Now, are you still willing to resist?”
He smiled awkwardly, pulled a chair over from the side, and slowly sat down.
“Ah, Young Master Lu, I’ve long admired your reputation, truly a grave oversight on my part.”
“We can talk things out nicely, there’s no need for violence, it ruins the harmony.”
He smiled awkwardly.
Lu Chuan sat back down.
“You know Wan Qingxue, right?”
“Yes…
right, I know her, she stayed here briefly.”
“Then where is she now?”
The owner shrugged helplessly, “I don’t know, she left two days ago, I don’t know whom she went to find.
She only left a ssage saying she won’t be back for a while.”
Lu Chuan scratched his head, still unable to get any substantial information.
“Where do you think she might have gone?”
“Tell everything you know!”
The owner furrowed his eyebrows tightly, his body trembling with nervousness.
After a long mont of serious thought, he was still clueless.
“Young Master Lu, that woman’s whereabouts are mysterious, I truly don’t know.”
“However, every day she went out, she headed towards the west side of the city.”
“Every ti she returned…
she had a fresh sll of grass on her, that’s all I know.”
He scratched his head helplessly, “I don’t know anything else.”
Lu Chuan looked at Su Changyue, asking, “Do you know where she could have gone?”
Su Changyue shook her head slightly, “I don’t go to the west side of the city often, I don’t know much about it.”
Su Yang raised his hand and looked at Lu Chuan, saying, “I know that area.”
“There is a grassland there, a stable with many horses.
If she went there, it’s possible she could have picked up the scent of grass.”
Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Su Yang, you really know a lot about Cloud Sea City.”
Su Changyue crossed her arms, a bit jealous, “He’s always running around playing, of course, he knows a lot.
It’s nothing to be proud of.”
Su Yang scratched his head and chuckled, “I’m happy to help Big Brother Lu.”
“Alright, I’ll leave now; you continue to have tea here.
I’m going to check that place out.”
Su Changyue grabbed Su Yang’s arm and said, “Let’s go, we should head ho quickly, it’s not safe in the city right now.”
Subsequently, Lu Chuan and Su Changyue left the tea house, splitting up to take action.
Lu Chuan headed west to the stable ntioned by Su Yang, to see if he could find that woman, Wan Qingxue.
anwhile, Su Changyue led Su Yang back to the Su Family Mansion, reporting the situation they had encountered to Su Jingqian.
