Chapter 2508: Chapter 2509: Appointment with Third Master Ye
“But as far as I know, the one who visits here the most frequently has to be the Third Old Master of the Ye Family. He’s a regular here, always coming around whenever he’s free, even often taking people from here back to his home.”
“Third Master Ye?”
Upon hearing Ding Rong’s words, Liu Yuyang’s gaze darkened.
This Third Old Master of the Ye Family was an old acquaintance of hers, they had dealings in the past.
Since she had already returned, it seemed time to visit those old friends. She wasn’t really hoping for help, as they were not truly close friends.
But occasionally using them for a bit of convenience was still possible.
“You should head back first, leave this matter to me,” she said to Ding Rong.
Ding Rong: “…”
She raised her eyes to look into the distance, glancing once more at the mother and son within that dilapidated house, and asked herself if she could really leave just like that.
“I also know Third Master Ye, so maybe…”
“No need, I have my ways.” Liu Yuyang interrupted her.
This Third Old Master of the Ye Family was a carefree spirit. If Ding Rong really were to knock on his door, he’d still make a move, not caring if she was a relative of the lord of the city.
“Alright then.”
Ding Rong nodded, taking one last look at that mother and son.
“Should I perhaps arrange a better place for them to stay?” she asked Liu Yuyang.
However, upon hearing her words, Liu Yuyang cast a sideways glance at her; since when had this Dame Ding become so compassionate?
That was not like her at all.
“Alright, I’ll head out first.”
Ding Rong felt a bit pressured by Liu Yuyang’s gaze, so she left reluctantly.
“Master, are you going to invite Third Master Ye?”
After Ding Rong left, a man emerged from one side and asked Liu Yuyang.
“Take this and arrange a meeting with the Third Old Master of the Ye Family.”
Liu Yuyang took a token from her bosom and handed it to her subordinate, giving instructions.
“Yes, Master.”
The subordinate responded, took the token with both hands, and left.
…
In the Ye Family, inside Third Master Ye’s room.
Looking at the gold token in his hand, the man’s hands were trembling.
“How could it be her? How could it be her?”
His mouth kept murmuring those five words, as if he couldn’t believe that the owner of the token had reappeared.
After quite some time, the man finally lifted his gaze, looking at the masked man in black not far from him.
“What does she want me to do for her?” he asked.
“Simply put, as long as you invite the Family Head Ding to the Chrysanthemum Hall, that’s all you need to do. The Master will take care of the rest,” the masked man said coldly to him.
“Invite Family Head Ding to the Chrysanthemum Hall?”
The man raised an eyebrow, finding it hard to comprehend why she was interested in the Chrysanthemum Hall.
Moreover, wasn’t she always a lone wolf? She hadn’t made contact in years, so how did she suddenly have a connection with the Head of the Ding Family?
To invite Ding Zhuzui to the Chrysanthemum Hall, could it be to set a trap for him?
“This, doesn’t seem right?”
Knowing that she wanted to trap Ding Zhuzui, if he still followed her instructions to invite him out, wouldn’t that be aiding and abetting evil?
Although his actions were somewhat erratic, he wasn’t the type to kill without batting an eye.
“From what I hear, does Third Master Ye not want to do it?”
The masked man heard his words but said nothing more, simply raising his hand and cupping his fist at him.
