Yun’er’s attendant?

A complicated look flashed across Master Sang’s eyes.

Master Sikong threw down a black piece and pretended to look at Master Sang. “Father-in-law, I see that you’re frowning. Did something happen in the manor?”

Master Sang glanced at Master Sikong and said to his little grandson opposite him, “Jing’er, you can leave first. We’ll play chess with your uncle another day.”

“Uh… yes.” Although the Third Young Master of the Sang family was a little unwilling, he could tell that his grandfather and uncle had serious matters to attend to. He quickly put down his chess piece and left.

“Father-in-law, did something big happen?” Master Sikong asked worriedly.

Master Sang looked at his son-in-law and a trace of inquiry flashed across his eyes. “It’s not a big deal. It’s just that a thief seems to have come to the manor and stolen something valuable.”

Master Sikong’s expression turned sharp. “What thief has the guts to come to the Sang family in broad daylight? Does he still care about the Sang family? Not only that, he chose to come when Yun’er and I came. In my opinion, he wants to frame our Sikong family, right? Ridiculous! Don’t let me catch him! Otherwise—”

He didn’t finish his sentence, only revealing an extremely fierce gaze.

Looking at Master Sikong’s confident expression, Master Sang felt that he might have been overthinking. After all, this son-in-law did not know that the Sang family had a Yin Gu. Why would he steal the Yin Gu?

Moreover, it was said that the pills in the Pill Chamber had also disappeared with the Yin Gu. The Sikong family was not so poor as to steal such a small thing from their house, right?

No matter how he looked at it… it didn’t seem like something Master Sikong would do. But… how could that Saintess Stone be explained?

The Saintess Stone was not a rare thing in the Nether Capital. Even the young women of the Sang family used the Saintess Stone as an ornament. However, they would not enter the forbidden area of the Sang family, let alone steal from them.

As Master Sang rubbed the Saintess Stone in his hand, he revealed a solemn expression.

Master Sikong’s gaze landed on his hand and he asked, “Father-in-law, what’s that?”

Master Sang paused and handed the Saintess Stone to him. “It’s something the thief left in the Sang Family.”

Master Sikong took the Saintess Stone and looked at it over and over. “This shape looks like a gem on a woman’s pearl. Could it be that the thief is a woman?”

Master Sang originally thought so too, but after he said that, he suddenly felt a little uncertain. “It’s also possible that a man deliberately dropped a woman’s jewelry to confuse us.”

“May I ask what was stolen, Father-in-law?” Master Sikong asked.

“Pills and weapons,” Master Sang said as he sized up his son-in-law’s expression, as if he was trying to see any abnormalities on his face, but he was disappointed.

When Master Sikong heard about the stolen item, he let out a long sigh. “The Sang family’s weapons are indeed something that experts covet.”

He did not deliberately say anything about the pills. He did not know that the Sang family had raised such a powerful Asura King, so he naturally did not think that the Sang family’s pills would be good. However, if that girl wanted to cause trouble, she might take their pills.

Master Sang understood that he had seen through his pills and did not specially explain anything. Instead, he said, “Something like this happened in the manor today. I didn’t greet you well. City Lord, please return first. I’ll personally visit another day.”

Master Sikong said righteously, “How can this be? The Sang family’s business is my business! Since I’m here today, I won’t stand by and do nothing. Father-in-law, please allow me to capture the little thief!”

“There’s no need. They’re just a few thieves…”

“Father-in-law, you don’t have to be polite with me!”

At this point, it was not good for Master Sang to refuse anymore. He could only agree to let Master Sikong leave the manor with their people to capture the thief. However, Master Sang was still a little suspicious of the attendant who had returned to the manor early. On the surface, he had sent the Sang family’s guards to search like a net, but he had secretly sent a few powerful Asura Kings to track down the suspicious attendant.

“Master, they’re chasing after Second Young Master’s attendant.” In the Sang Family’s garden, an expert from the Sikong Family reported to Master Sikong softly.

Master Sikong did not show any abnormalities on his face. He had long known that this father-in-law was not easy to fool and did not expect to dispel his suspicion at all. However, as long as he did not catch concrete evidence, he could never prove that the theft of the Yin Gu was related to the Sikong family.
