Chapter 94: Because of the Blueprint
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong stepped forward. “Young Master Peng doesn’t know me yet, so 1’11 introduce myself first. My name is Gu Yundong, and I’m the owner of the three drawings that Young Master Peng obtained yesterday.”
Peng Zhongfei’s expression suddenly changed and he suddenly sat up straight. “Get out. What three blueprints? Those blueprints belong to our Peng family. Not only did you steal them without permission, but you also want to call me a thief. Why? Do you really think I, Peng Zhongfei, am a kind person? Someone, drag her out and break her hand.”
The servant outside the door immediately ran in and pulled her back.
Chang Fu was extremely anxious. On one hand, he was afraid that Peng Zhongfei would blame him. On the other hand, he was afraid that Gu Yundong would die and he would not have the antidote.
However, Gu Yundong was not anxious at all. When the servant came over, she would hide. As she hid, she shouted anxiously, “Young Master Peng, you can break my hand, but 1 still have to tell you that there’s something strange about those three blueprints. If you die later, it won’t be my fault.”
Strange? Peng Zhongfei was stunned. Liu Wei, who was beside him, also said, “Brother Peng, I think she’s serious. Why don’t we hear what’s strange about it? If what she said is true, then you…”
Peng Zhongfei tightened his grip and waved his hand to stop the servant. Then, he glared at Gu Yundong with a dark expression. “Alright, I’ll give you a chance. If you can’t explain, not only will I break your hand, but your mouth will also be sewn shut.”
Gu Yundong took two deep breaths and sat at the side to pour himself a glass of water.
“Young Master Peng, you’ll know what’s going on after you hear it.” As she spoke, she looked around mysteriously.
Peng Zhongfei understood and asked Chang Fu and the servant to leave. Finally, he looked at Liu Wei.
The latter said seriously, “1’11 be a witness. If this girl talks nonsense, I’ll definitely stand on your side.”
Peng Zhongfei’s lips twitched. He knew that he would not be able to chase this guy away. Even if he knew about the blueprint, it did not matter much. Could it be that he would stand up for justice for a country girl?
The Liu family was not someone who would interfere when they saw injustice.
Seeing that he was silent, Liu Wei went up and closed the door very considerately. Then, he sat down and said, “Miss, tell me, what’s strange?” “Young Master Peng, do you know my background?” Gu Yundong asked.
Peng Zhongfei nodded. It was precisely because he knew that she had no background that he took the blueprint boldly.
Gu Yundong said, “Isn’t it strange for Young Master Peng? I’m a refugee. I even brought my mother and younger siblings along on the way to escape. But in the end, not only did 1 arrive at Yongfu Village safely, but I also used loo taels of silver to build such a huge house. Think about it, who can do this among millions of refugees?”
When she said this, not only was Peng Zhongfei stunned, but even Liu Wei was surprised.
However, when she thought of what he had seen and heard yesterday, she could not help but say, “Isn’t it because you’re ruthless?”
“Aiya, that’s just fooling the villagers who don’t know anything. Anyone with a brain won’t believe that a thirteen-year-old girl could do this with her ruthlessness. There were so many bandits and refugees on the road. Could 1 deal with more than ten people alone?”
Liu Wei was speechless. He believed her. Was he brainless?
Unwilling to give up, he snorted. “Then tell me, how did you do it?”
“Because…” Gu Yundong suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously,
“Those three blueprints..”
