Chapter 1271: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1271: Drawing Out Lord Miao
Meng Yunzheng stood not far away, watching as Master Miao entered the Rongguang Restaurant on another street.
This restaurant was the address Meng Yunzheng had written on the invitation card. Master Miao went up to the second floor of the restaurant and sat there with a stern face, waiting.
However, Meng Yunzheng didn't follow him. He continued to watch the direction of the Miao Residence's main gate.
Fortunately, Master Miao came out in time, and in a short while, the people from the black market were standing at the gate of the Miao Residence, holding several boxes.
Meng Yunzheng silently approached and stood in the shadows, listening to the conversation between the black market personnel and the gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper obviously didn't expect someone else to visit right after Master Miao left.
Seeing the respectful manner of the visitor, he could only smile and say, "Master Miao has gone out, and it's unfortunate that this young master arrived at this time."
"Out?" The visitor looked at the sky; it was still quite early. How could Mr. Miao have gone out already?
He asked, "When did Master Miao leave and where did he go?"
The gatekeeper smiled, "Young master, I'm just a lowly gatekeeper, how could I know the master's whereabouts? But Master Miao left not long ago, and I'm afraid you won't be able to catch him in a short time."
The visitor's face changed slightly. This was really unfortunate.
He wanted to ask more, but the gatekeeper seemed unwilling to say much.
After hesitating for a moment, the visitor quickly slipped a small piece of silver to the gatekeeper and said, "I really have urgent business with Master Miao. Could you please help me out, old man?"
The gatekeeper's eyes brightened slightly. He remained silent for a moment before saying, "I don't know where the master went, but when he left, he mentioned Dongqing Temple..."
He had no idea where Master Miao went, as a servant, it was impossible for the master to disclose his whereabouts to him. However, since the visitor offered silver, he had to provide some useful information. Dongqing Temple was the most likely place.
"Dongqing Temple?" The visitor lowered his eyes. If Master Miao went to Dongqing Temple, it would explain why he left so early.
He thanked the gatekeeper and quickly left with his things.
Meng Yunzheng calculated the time; during this period, if this person also went to Dongqing Temple, it was highly likely that he would run into Ah Yu.
That wouldn't be good.
Just as he was thinking about how to stop the person, the visitor came back.
Meng Yunzheng was puzzled when he saw the person sitting down at a nearby eatery opposite the Miao residence.
It seemed... he didn't plan to go to Dongqing Temple and instead wanted to wait here for a chance encounter.
Meng Yunzheng sighed with relief and then headed towards Rongguang Restaurant.
However, even though he went up to the second floor, he had no intention of meeting Master Miao. He still didn't know the connection between Dongqing Temple and Master Miao. If he met him and said something inappropriate, it might ruin everything.
Hopefully, Master Miao would be patient enough to wait until Ah Yu returned from Dongqing Temple.
However, no matter how fast Shu Yu was, it would still take time to leave the city and come back from Dongqing Temple.
Master Miao's patience was quite good, but after waiting for two quarters of an hour, he started to become impatient.
One of his attendants cautiously observed his expression and couldn't help but ask, "My Lord, is that person trying to deceive us?"
Master Miao placed the teacup on the table, "Forget it, let's go."
"Alright."
As the two of them opened the door to leave, a person came walking towards them. He had a gentle and courteous smile, making people feel warm. He spoke, "Master Miao, sorry to have kept you waiting."
Master Miao was taken aback, looking the person up and down, "Is it you who sent me the invitation card?"
