My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World Chapter 133: Questions, Curiosity

At the ntion of the Gui Family, Gui Xiaoxu’s face flashed through her mind. Bai Hanyun shuddered instinctively and looked at Jiang Yinqi.

After a mont of thought, she replied, "Elder Brother Yinqi, I have never t this person. I don’t know why he’d investigate ."

Jiang Yinqi’s frown deepened as a trace of worry showed on his face.

Lowering her eyes, Bai Hanyun’s thoughts raced.

Clenching her hands, she frowned and thought in confusion, ’Is he investigating because of the antiques I sold to Master Yu before? But why? I rember I never had anything to do with the Gui Family.’

Looking at the worry on her face, Jiang Yinqi sighed and said, "Hanyun, don’t worry. I will find out why Gui Sihong is investigating you."

After saying that, he stood up and added, "There is still a lot to do at the Bai Group, so I will be leaving now."

Bai Hanyun nodded, then stood up and walked him to the door.

Before leaving, Jiang Yinqi looked toward the nearby capsule house and asked, "Who lives in that capsule house?"

Following his gaze, Bai Hanyun replied, "Oh, that is my personal bodyguard’s house."

Raising his eyebrows slightly at her answer, Jiang Yinqi smiled. "It’s good that you have a personal bodyguard. What’s their na?"

"I only have one personal bodyguard, and his na is Hua Yuyu," Bai Hanyun replied calmly.

When Jiang Yinqi heard the na, he paused for a mont, then asked in confusion, "Who do you say his na is?"

Thinking he hadn’t heard her clearly, Bai Hanyun repeated, "His na is Hua Yuyu."

This ti, Jiang Yinqi heard her clearly, and his calm expression changed slightly.

Noticing this, Bai Hanyun asked, "What’s wrong? Do you know him, Elder Brother Yinqi?"

Jiang Yinqi looked at her strangely and asked in return, "How much are you paying him?"

Bai Hanyun recalled the contract with Hua Yuyu and answered, "One million for a one-year contract."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yinqi nodded in understanding and muttered, "No wonder he agreed to be your bodyguard. The pay is not bad."

Becoming more curious, Bai Hanyun pressed further, "Elder Brother Yinqi, why are you asking about this? Do you know Brother Hua?"

"He allows you to call him Brother Hua?" Jiang Yinqi raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Bai Hanyun nodded.

Seeing this, Jiang Yinqi sighed and explained, "I do know him, but that was a long ti ago. Since you two have a good relationship, having him as your bodyguard isn’t a bad thing. With Captain Hua protecting you, I feel more at ease."

Then, he gently patted Bai Hanyun’s head and added, "A lot of people have their eyes on the Bai Group right now. Once the news about the new chairman is released, all the attention will fall on you. Just rember, be careful around strangers."

Bai Hanyun nodded again. "Got it."

After reminding her not to go out unless it is sothing important, Jiang Yinqi left in a hurry.

Watching his sports car drive away, Bai Hanyun suddenly exclaid, "Oh no! He didn’t answer why he was asking about Brother Hua!"

She grabbed her hair and groaned, "I won’t be able to sleep tonight."

While Bai Hanyun’s curiosity made it difficult for her to enjoy watching her favorite drama, Wen Yirui and his group finally arrived at Xiquan City after traveling nonstop through the night.

Covered in dust and sweat, Wen Yirui followed the Ji Army soldiers into the city. Sitting atop an exhausted war horse, he frowned at the city’s desolate appearance, which looked more like an abandoned city.

When they reached the main entrance of Ji Hui’s mansion, Ji Hui, his wife, and their children were already waiting to greet Wen Yirui.

Seeing them, Wen Yirui smiled and dismounted from his horse.

Clasping his fists, Ji Hui bowed slightly and greeted, "Welco to this general’s humble ho, Second Young Master."

Following his lead, Madam Ji and the young masters and young ladies of the Ji family curtseyed and greeted in unison, "This commoner greets the Wen Clan’s Second Young Master."

Wen Yirui returned the gesture politely. "Thank you for the warm welco, General Ji, Madam Ji."

After the exchange, Ji Hui stepped aside and gestured inside. "Second Young Master, please co in. This general has prepared a welco banquet for you."

"Thank you, General Ji." Wen Yirui nodded and entered with Ji Hui, while the soldiers returned to the barracks.

After they went inside, Madam Ji turned to the old servant beside her and said, "Momo, go inform the kitchen to serve the dishes and wine. Make sure everything is perfect."

"Yes, Madam," the old servant replied and hurried off.

Then, Madam Ji looked at her sons, both her own and those born to Ji Hui’s concubines, and said, "Go accompany your father. Mind your words and actions. Don’t offend the Wen Clan’s Second Young Master."

The Ji family’s young masters clasped their hands and replied in unison, "We will follow Mother’s instruction."

With that, the eldest legitimate son led the group to the main hall to join the welco banquet.

Left with only her and the young ladies, Madam Ji instructed, "While the Wen Clan’s Second Young Master is staying in our place, none of you is to leave your rooms. If this madam finds out anyone disobeys , I will break your legs!"

Knowing their mother was not one to make empty threats, none of the young ladies dared to make a sound.

Seeing all of them lowering their heads, Madam Ji waved her hand and added, "Go back to your courtyard. Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter the front yard."

Bending their knees slightly, the young ladies bowed and replied, "Yes, Mother."

The young ladies of the Ji family were then escorted back to their courtyards by their personal maids.

Once everything was arranged, Madam Ji turned to her loyal dowry servant and said, "Momo, make sure only male servants are assigned to the front yard until the Wen Clan’s second young master leaves our mansion."

The middle-aged servant hesitated and asked, "Madam, are you guarding against the Wen Clan’s Second Young Master?"
