Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Chapter 2333: Chapter 2333: Luminous Pearl

"Didn’t Dad say that we can’t let anyone else know about this?"

"Yes, I nearly forgot. The Luminous Pearl is our family heirloom. Absolutely no one can know about it, or it could bring disaster upon us. Xiao Hu, you must keep this secret and not let it leak out."

"Hey! Got it."

Little Tiger answered loudly while secretly glancing in the direction of the carriage door. The waiter’s figure had already disappeared.

"Hey! Master, he’s gone!" Little Tiger whispered.

"Hmm." Xuexue nodded, indicating she already knew. They deliberately put on this act to use this shady inn to deal with that middle-aged man.

Sure enough, after the waiter heard this news, he immediately ran back to the restaurant to report everything to the shopkeeper. Upon hearing it, the shopkeeper immediately put Knockout Drug in the food, and the middle-aged man and the carriage driver passed out after eating.

The shopkeeper and his assistants searched all over the man yet found no trace of the Luminous Pearl. Getting angry, the shopkeeper scolded the waiter fiercely, saying the information was incorrect and wasted his drug.

The waiter felt extremely wronged. Those two mother and son in the carriage clearly said he had the Luminous Pearl; he heard it clearly. How could he have heard it wrong? Could it be they were deliberately framing him? The more the waiter thought about it, the angrier he became, feeling like he’d been tricked.

Angry, he turned around, grabbed a kitchen knife, and walked outside with murderous intent, ready to pick a fight with Xuexue.

However, outside, it was quiet; not even the shadow of the carriage was visible anymore. Where could he find someone to take revenge on?

Great, the only valuable thing on the middle-aged man was the carriage, and now the carriage was gone. The shopkeeper was angry; he originally planned to let the middle-aged man go, but now he wouldn’t stand for it.

He ordered his assistants to drag the unconscious middle-aged man and the carriage driver to the kitchen, ready to butcher them in anger.

Coincidentally, the restaurant was out of meat, and buying it outside was too expensive.

The waiter kicked the unconscious carriage driver on the ground and asked, "Shopkeeper, this one’s too skinny. Should we butcher?" ƒгeewebnovёl.com

A few young assistants in the kitchen were busy working furiously, some sharpening knives, others boiling water, each with a specific task.

The shopkeeper glanced at the unconscious carriage driver on the ground and said, contemptuous, "Skinny like a monkey, all skin and bones. It’ll waste oil to cook, forget it, forget it. Strip the clothes off, take them to the pawnshop and sell them, and toss the person outside."

The waiter stripped the carriage driver’s clothes while lamenting, "The little lady who stole the carriage was so pretty. If she hadn’t escaped, selling her to Yihong Brothel could definitely make a lot of money."

As soon as he finished talking, the shopkeeper kicked him hard in the buttocks and scolded, "Useless thing, have the nerve to say that you can’t even keep an eye on a little lady."

The waiter felt extremely aggrieved. He just went to the outhouse for a bit. Who would have known that sickly little lady dared to run away with her Little Kid and even took the carriage with her?

..................

To avoid drawing attention, Xuexue sold the original carriage. After days of rushing on the road, she felt very tired, so she decided to stay at an inn to rest for the night and then head back to the Capital tomorrow.

She had been missing for so many days and wondered how things were on Long Rui’s end? How was the matter with the obsession being handled? Were the medicinal materials found? These were very important, and Xuexue was worried about them.

As soon as she arrived at the inn, Xuexue immediately sent out a message to inform Long Rui that she was safe and to tell him she was on her way back to the Capital.

The next morning, after resting for a night, she felt refreshed. After having breakfast on the first floor of the inn, she was about to get on a carriage back to the Capital when she suddenly heard a commotion outside.

Several guests entered, covering their mouths and laughing as they walked in.
