Chapter 227: Die under the Peony Flowers, Become a Romantic Ghost
"They bought them all?" Hearing this, Lin Wanwan was surprised. "Who bought them?"
The staff shook his head. "We don't know about this. Anyway, this is the only painting in our museum."
Hearing this, Huo Jingchen nodded slightly, "Okay, we got it, thank you."
"Let's go!" Huo Jingchen took Lin Wanwan's hand, "Let's go somewhere else."
Lin Wanwan nodded slightly and followed Huo Jingchen to another place.
"Is your head still hurting?" Huo Jingchen looked at Lin Wanwan with concern.
Lin Wanwan shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"Wanwan, last time you said that you felt familiar with Master Bai Wei's paintings. This time, when you saw the picture of mother and daughter, you had a headache. Could it be because you have a connection with Bai Wei?" Huo Jingchen made a bold guess.
Hearing this, Lin Wanwan frowned, "No way? I'm just an ordinary girl, how could I be related to Master Bai Wei?"
Huo Jingchen looked puzzled, "But your painting skills make her look very similar. Do you still remember your memories before the age of five?"
Lin Wanwan shook her head and said, "I don't remember."
"Forget it, take your time!" Huo Jingchen did not force Lin Wanwan to remember, but just said: "When we meet Dean Chen, maybe we can solve the mystery of your life experience."
"Who is Dean Chen?" Hearing this, Lin Wanwan was surprised, "Jing Chen, are you hiding something from me?"
At this point, Huo Jingchen no longer planned to hide it from Lin Wanwan. He held her hands and said gently, "Wanwan, I am indeed hiding something from you. I have been secretly investigating your life experience, just to help you find your family as soon as possible without any regrets."
Hearing this, Lin Wanwan was moved, with tears in her eyes, "So, we came to Haicheng this time just to investigate my background?"
Huo Jingchen nodded. "In addition to taking you out to relax, I also want to learn more about your life experience. The director of the orphanage where you lived was called Chen Hong. She lives in a small village in Haicheng called Fisherman's Village. Tomorrow, we will take a boat to the Fisherman's Village to find her."
Hearing this, Lin Wanwan realized that Huo Jingchen had already arranged everything for her.
Lin Wanwan's heart was filled with gratitude and uneasiness about her unknown life experience. She held Huo Jingchen's hand tightly, tears flashing in her eyes: "Jingchen, thank you for everything you have done for me."
"Silly girl, you are my wife, the one I want to be with for the rest of my life, and I should do all this." Huo Jingchen reached out and gently stroked her cheek.
Huo Jingchen gently wiped away the tears from Lin Wanwan's eyes, held her in his arms, and said softly: "No matter what we discover in the fishermen's village tomorrow, I will always be by your side."
Lin Wanwan nodded with tears in her eyes, "Okay, with you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything."
Kyoto.
Hu Yong came out of the bar drunk and stumbled along the street alone.
At this time, a group of men in black rushed out and surrounded him.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Hu Yong burped, narrowed his eyes and pointed at them.
At this time, Yu Wanyin walked out of the crowd, changing her usual gentle and ladylike style. She wore a sexy red dress, had big wavy hair, and wore heavy makeup. She seemed like a different person.
"Hey, beauty?" Seeing the sexy beauty in front of him, Hu Yong immediately stared at her with lustful eyes.
"You are Hu Yong, right?" Yu Wanyin curled her red lips.
"Hey, do you know me?" Hu Yong stretched out his hand and was about to touch Yu Wanyin.
Yu Wanyin moved sideways and Hu Yong missed.
"Beauty, don't run!" Seeing that he didn't catch her, Hu Yong turned around and pounced on Yu Wanyin again.
"As long as you help me do one thing, I won't run away." After Yu Wanyin said this, she threw a coquettish glance at Hu Yong.
Hu Yong was immediately overjoyed and completely obsessed with her beauty. "Hehe, dying under the peony flowers, even as a ghost I can still be romantic. Beauty, what do you want?"
"I heard that your uncle Hu Shun is the butler of the Huo family, and you are now also working as a driver for the Huo family."
"How did you know?" Hearing this, Hu Yong was surprised and his eyes showed a hint of vigilance.
Yu Wanyin raised her red lips, "Don't worry about how I know this, I also know that you are very short of money now, and you owe a lot of gambling debts. Your uncle knew about this and refused to lend you money. But I can help you."
Hu Yong's eyes lit up, and the alcohol seemed to have dissipated a little. He said anxiously: "Can you really help me? What do you want me to do? As long as it's not murder or arson, I can consider it."
Yu Wanyin smiled softly, leaned close to his ear, and exhaled sweetly: "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. I just want you to help me keep an eye on the Huo family's every move. Then, find a chance to steal the twins born by Lin Wanwan for me."
Hu Yong frowned and hesitated: "This...if my uncle finds out, I will be in trouble."
Yu Wanyin snorted disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? As long as you do it secretly, how could he find out? Moreover, as long as you do me this favor, I will not only help you pay off your gambling debts, but also give you a large and generous reward, enough for you to live a carefree life for the rest of your life."
Hu Yong began to struggle internally. On the one hand, he was afraid that his uncle would find out; on the other hand, he could not resist the temptation of money and beauty.
"But the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in Kyoto, and Huo Jingchen is extremely powerful. If I steal his child, will I still be alive?"
Hu Yong looked embarrassed, with beads of sweat even appearing on his forehead, and his eyes were full of worry and fear.
Yu Wanyin sneered, and gently stroked Hu Yong's cheek with her hand, with a hint of temptation in her eyes: "Humph, you underestimate me too much. Since I dare to let you do this, I will naturally find a way to protect you. Just do as I say, and get the child without anyone knowing. I will immediately arrange for you to flee far away and live a carefree life with the money. No matter how capable Huo Jingchen is, he will not be able to find you."
Hu Yong gritted his teeth, still a little hesitant: "But after all, those are two little lives. If anything goes wrong, I... I can't bear the responsibility."
Yu Wanyin's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, and then she changed into that charming look, and said coquettishly: "Oh, I didn't expect you to have a conscience. But think about it, you are now in a lot of gambling debts, and those creditors are chasing you like a stray dog, and your uncle is unwilling to help you. How are you going to live in the future? Besides, Lin Wanwan is just a woman of unknown origin. It's lucky to marry Huo Jingchen. How can she have so much? Bringing the child here can also be regarded as teaching her a lesson."
