Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Chapter 399 Silly Girl

Jun Wuxia and her husband, along with Jiang Zaizhou, watched her departing figure for a while before looking at Yun Jixing. Yun Jixing smiled and said, "You guys... take it easy. Aru is more tactful and polite in front of unfamiliar people, but she speaks very frankly with people she knows well. Because she doesn't like misunderstandings and troubles with people she cares about, she'll say everything directly. That's how she usually communicates with me, and with her family too. Plus, she doesn't speak in front of others for a long time, so it's inevitable that she's straightforward and not good at organizing her thoughts."

“That’s good.” Jiang Zaizhou put the grape in his mouth, swallowed it, and said, “You don’t know how much I’ve been suffering. Because of me, you’ve all ended up like this, especially Xiaoru, who has nothing to do with me at all, yet I’ve ruined her like this. Now that she’s said it, I feel much better.”

"Yes, that's great. Communication is the best way to solve problems," Jun Wuxia said with a smile, covering her mouth.

"However, it's truly impressive that Xiaoru managed to kill so many people and escape unscathed. Little Star, was this your doing?" Xi Yizai asked.

Yun Jixing shook his head. "If my family had that kind of ability, I could be ruling China by now. Aru escaped on her own, and I don't know what method she used. During the time she was gone, my parents arranged for people to stay by her side to take care of her daily life and to inquire about her whereabouts. That was all they could do."

"Wow, Xiaoru is so amazing!" Jiang Zaizhou exclaimed with admiration. "Is she a big shot hiding her true identity, or actually a top national agent? Was this murder a mission assigned to her by her superiors?"

Yun Jixing's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Jiang Zaizhou's habit of reading mindless novels wasn't so bad after all; he could guess most of the big questions right when it came to important matters. He, as her husband, didn't know whether Yu Ru was a spy or not, but given her abilities, he figured that after all this, she must be one. He smiled slightly and said seriously, "Maybe she is. That would be great; I can now cling to my wife's coattails."

"Hey, by the way, Little Star, I have a question." Xi Yizai suddenly changed the subject, "You said the other day that the bodyguards are all reincarnated virgins, is that true?"

"No, I'm just talking nonsense." Yun Jixing laughed as she stood up, then walked up to Xi Yizai, circled him halfway, and leaned close to sniff his scent. "Are you wearing perfume? Or is there sandalwood incense burning in the house?"

"It's from the smoke at home." Xi Yizai suppressed a laugh. "Come on, let me see how you're going to write this."

Yunji Xing pondered for a moment and said, "Young master, I have noticed that you occasionally emit the scent of sandalwood and plum blossoms, which is not a fragrance of this world, but rather 'true essence,' indicating that your immortal status has not been erased. You may be the reincarnation of a celestial attendant."

Xi Yizai clapped his hands, "Amazing, amazing, hahaha, you make it sound so real."

"Me too! Me too!" Jiang Zaizhou waved.

Yun Jixing walked up to Jiang Zaizhou and circled him halfway around. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "I see that your pupils are clear and bright, like glass reflecting snow, with a shimmering, watery appearance. However, there is a wisp of golden light hidden three inches below your eyes. This is the mark of the Heavenly Gate not yet closed."

Jiang Zaizhou laughed too, "Did you go to a Taoist temple to study? Are you going to switch careers and become a Taoist priest? How can you be so nonsensical?"

"It's just some knowledge I've learned from reading books. I haven't been born with a third eye that can see through the physical body." Yun Jixing returned to his seat and sat down, but as soon as his bottom touched the chair, he stood up again. "I'm going to see Aru. She's been gone for a long time."

"go Go."

Everyone chimed in.

Yunjixing encountered Yuru on the way. She was carrying a bag and holding a deadly dumpling in her hand.

"Aru, are you going to give them the dumplings?" Yun Jixing looked down.

Yu Ru nodded, "During the months I was in prison, I spent my free time improving the dumplings. Now it's the perfect version, and I can hand it over to others."

"No." Yun Jixing pressed down on Yu Ru's shoulder and led her back. "This is your secret weapon for survival. Don't give it to others easily. Although they are my best friends, I don't want you to take this risk. There are a few guns in the warehouse. Just give them to them."

Yu Ru stopped in her tracks, staring intently at Yun Jixing, and replied, "I know. But the dumplings aren't entirely mine anymore; they've been taken over by the state. Giving them to them only grants them the right to use them, not ownership. They'll have to sign a contract with me. They can't use them recklessly; they can only secretly keep them with them. The dumplings can only be used to save people in the event of a life-threatening emergency. If they easily reveal the dumplings, they'll go to jail. Also, I invented the dumplings, and I set up a recognition program on each one. No matter who has them, I am the ultimate owner. They won't harm me even if they harm anyone else. Give them to them; they'll have some protection when they go out in the future, and they won't be at the mercy of others like they were this time if something happens."

“Aru…” Yun Jixing remained silent for a long time. Finally, he hugged Yuru. “Silly girl.”

“I’m not stupid.” Yu Ru snuggled against him. “They are grateful and will give me benefits in return. I really like everything they gave me this time. I gave them dumplings, and they will definitely give me gifts in return.”

When Jiang Zaizhou was kidnapped, the Jiang family gave Yun Jixing, Jun Wuxia, Xi Yizai, and herself five million yuan each, and also sent a truckload of gifts to each family. Because Xi Yizai and Yun Jixing were severely beaten and almost killed, Jiang's parents even gave them some shares of their company.

However, she played a leading role in resolving this incident, so Jiang Zaizhou compensated her out of his own pocket, not only giving her a share of his shares but also sending her a truckload of gifts. Hearing that she had been arrested, he sent her a third truckload of gifts today.

Going to jail is truly miserable, but receiving gifts is also incredibly rewarding.

“She’s just a silly girl…” Yun Jixing touched Yu Ru’s face.

“Not stupid…” Yu Ru raised her hand and pinched Yun Jixing’s face, smiling as she opened her mouth as if to say something, but then suddenly forgot. “What… I was going to say? I forgot.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Jixing's heart sank.
