Mr. Shen smiled so harmlessly, but Li Qingyou didn't believe him at all. If he was a good person, there would be no bad guys in the world.

And why are you still holding those two silver needles if you don’t have any malicious intent?

This is clearly a threat.

"I want to know what your relationship is with the Wei family?" Mr. Shen went straight to the point. This was what interested him the most.

Li Qingyou didn't want to hide it. In fact, he couldn't hide it. As long as the other party wanted to know, he could send someone to investigate. The only difference was that he would know it later.

Besides, she could also guess that the reason why he helped at the teahouse yesterday must be because of the relationship with the Wei family.

Li Qingyou could think of this, and so could Adi. Hearing this, his chest lifted up, "We are friends with the young master of the Wei family."

"Good friend." Li Qingyou emphasized her tone.

Third Young Master Shen smiled, not surprised at all. After all, they were about the same age as the young Young Master of the Wei family, but he was still surprised that these two siblings were able to hook up with the Wei family.

"How did you two meet?" Mr. Shen picked up the tea cup and looked at Li Qingyou with his peach blossom eyes from time to time. This was his habit.

It's just that although this girl's appearance is not bad, she is thin and small, with no figure to speak of, and they are related to the Wei family, so Mr. Shen doesn't have any evil thoughts.

Only the way he looked at people was still unpleasant.

"We will meet each other if we are destined." Adi choked back, glared at him fiercely, and at the same time pulled Li Qingyou back.

Unfortunately, he was short in stature and not as tall as Li Qingyou, so he couldn't stop her, which made Third Young Master Shen laugh.

If he really wants to attack them, he can't hide away.

"This thing was given to you by the Wei family?" Mr. Shen placed two silver needles on the table and stared directly at the siblings.

He was more interested in this than the dagger.

This kind of crossbow needle is not something that ordinary people can get. It is made of black iron, plated with a layer of silver on the outside, and it is hollow inside. The hollow part can hold poison or anesthetic. This alone cannot be done by ordinary craftsmen. .

The reason why black iron is used instead of real silver is because silver is softer and far less hard than black iron.

He had seen crossbows in the military before, and he had friends in the martial arts world who also used concealed weapons, but this was the first time he had seen one that was so well made.

The two siblings in front of them obviously didn't have the ability to make such a thing, so there was only one possibility: it was given to them by the Wei family.

He has seen its power before. Even in the hands of powerful people, these hidden weapons are considered treasures, and are more valuable than the ancestral dagger in his family.

After all, this thing can save lives at critical moments, and its power is much greater than a dagger at a certain moment. If the Wei family didn't value them very much, how could they give such a precious thing to two civilian children?

Third Young Master Shen guessed half of it right. There is no doubt about the power of Lotus Sword, but it was not given by Wei Siqi, but by Adi himself.

But he couldn't say it.

"So what?" Adi's little face tightened and he stared at the other person warily. At the same time, his right hand under the table was quietly aimed at Mr. Shen, and he would give him a slap if he made the slightest move.

Seeing the brothers and sisters being wary, Mr. Shen smiled and said, "You don't have to panic. I already told you that I don't mean any harm, otherwise you wouldn't be sitting here properly."

Finally, he added: "I'm just curious about your relationship with the Wei family, that's all. Besides, my Shen family is on good terms with the Wei family, so you can relax."

However, Li Qingyou did not relax because of his words. This was not what she was worried about at all.

"Since you are on good terms with the Wei family, then return our things to us." Li Qingyou didn't want to talk nonsense to him, she just wanted to send him away quickly.

Third Young Master Shen nodded, "Of course the things will be returned to you, but..."

I know it's not that simple.

Li Qingyou's hands placed under the table were clenched tightly into fists, and she was weighing in her mind what to do if the other party recognized her, but it seemed that he was a little afraid of the Wei family, or that he would not kill her even if he recognized her?

But no one can guarantee this.

Being involved with the concubine, if this matter spreads out, the reputation of the entire Shen family will be tarnished.

"I have another thing to do here today." Mr. Shen's eyes fell on Li Qingyou's face, and he thought it was funny when he thought of her words last night about not being able to seduce a gangster with money.

"You were selling it at Cuihonglou last night..." Before Mr. Shen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Qingyou raising his hand.

Cuihonglou is the "work unit" of those old kiln ladies last night, and it's where Li Qingyou sells "Miao Chun Tu".

"Brother, please go back to the house and pack your things first so that we can leave later." Li Qingyou said suddenly.

Adi hesitated and didn't want to move. He didn't ask him to pack anything, but he clearly wanted to get rid of him.

"Go quickly, be good." Li Qingyou rubbed his head, and Adi stood up sadly and left reluctantly.

"I'm very interested in that picture album. I wonder if I can give up my love?" Mr. Shen smiled with a smile on his face. He heard last night that the spring and palace paintings had a unique charm, which was naturally very attractive to him, the devil among flowers.

Besides, didn’t she go to Cuihonglou last night just to sell that picture album?

Li Qingyou raised his eyebrows, not expecting him to mention this. Suddenly he remembered that this guy was a pervert, so it was not surprising that he was interested in such things.

"It's okay to part ways, but I just don't know if the young master will give it up to get the money." Li Qingyou didn't talk nonsense to him. Since she couldn't avoid it now, she might as well make a lot of money, "For fifty taels of silver, as long as the young master takes it. It follows that "Miao Chun Tu" belongs to the Young Master."

The corners of Mr. Shen's eyes twitched a few times, he had such a huge appetite.

There was only three hundred cents a book in the study, and even last night she only sold it for five taels of silver. Was he being taken advantage of?

"Isn't it too unkind to raise the price just by sitting on the ground?" Mr. Shen shook the golden folding fan in his hand, feeling a little unhappy.

He has money, but he doesn't like being cheated.

"Gold and silver are the most corrosive to people's hearts. It is said that money makes people happy. I am just sharing the young master's worries, so how can I say that I am kind or not?" Li Qingyou said forcefully and laughed at the third young master Shen.

"It's okay to spend some money if you really want to be happy, but I have to see if this picture album of yours is worth it." Third Young Master Shen said with a smile, "I have to inspect the goods first."

"That's natural." As Li Qingyou spoke, she was about to take out the album when a female voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

"Sister Qingyou, you are still here, everyone is waiting for you." It was Qin Xiu who spoke. She deliberately wanted to expose Li Qingyou's identity as a woman disguised as a man, and at the same time, she glanced sideways at Mr. Shen.

When I saw this, my heart suddenly went crazy.
