Portia was stunned. She still didn't really believe him.
But the phone in Chen Zhao's hand did light up.
"You said she did something to my phone. How did she stop my phone from turning on?"
"You won't understand such high-tech work," Chen Zhao said in disdain.
Portia didn't believe that Chen Zhao was talking about advanced technology.
Chen Zhao's understanding of the high-tech appliances and equipment in the house was even lower than Portia's.
How could Portia believe that Chen Zhao knew more about technology than her?
"Boss, is there really a problem with that woman?"
"Yes." Chen Zhao nodded.
"Then what does she want to do? Sneak into Mingyue Villa to set off a bomb? "
"I don't know," Chen Zhao said. "They're probably here to ask about my family."
Chen Zhao's head hurt. These were troubled times. All sorts of people had popped up.
Furthermore, he was too careless.
Even if he didn't notice that woman's mistake earlier, he wouldn't be able to do so.
Just from the coincidence of her rear-ending Portia, he should have guessed that there was something wrong with her.
The Empress Dowager herself was slow to realize it.
Chen Zhao was annoyed.
Next time, he would definitely not be careless.
As long as there was the slightest bit of doubt, he would make his move.
Why did he care so much?
He was not a good person.
Anyway, this time, Chen Zhao was sure that this person was a bad guy.
…
Sheng An was currently soaking in a container.
However, after Cui Siyin returned, Sheng An opened his eyes.
Although Saint An accepted Trish's help.
However, this did not mean that he trusted Cui Siyin.
Even if Cui Siyin was his sister.
Sheng An was always on guard against Cui Siyin.
Although they were separated by the container, Sheng An could still see Cui Siyin's expression.
"You seem to have run into something bad. Let me guess what it is …" Sheng An spoke from within the container.
But the strange thing was that he could actually speak in the liquid.
"You disguised yourself as an ordinary person and snuck into that human's house and were almost discovered, right?"
Sheng An knew Cui Siyue too well. Whether it was from the perspective of human morality or from the perspective of the Dragon race, she was an extremely evil dragon.
Tri Sili sat in a chair in front of Saint Ann's container, her chest heaving.
"Do you think my experience can make you happy?"
"So, what did you gain from this infiltration?"
"I discovered that the human is indeed very powerful, but he is not completely invulnerable."
"Him? What weakness could he possibly have? "
"He didn't discover any weaknesses, but he made a fatal mistake."
"What mistake?"
"He said that a dragon's head was placed in his courtyard," Cui Siyin said.
Sheng 'an furrowed his brows at first, then a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"This time, you don't need to take out your wealth. Maybe there's a way for our people to participate."
Placing a dragon's head in the courtyard as a decoration was already a huge taboo for the dragon race.
Sheng An continued to stare coldly at Cui Siyin.
"Why are you helping me? If you want my treasure, then don't even think about it. I won't give you my treasure, not even a single silver coin. "
Cui Sili smiled as she looked at Saint An in the container.
"This isn't the best place to hide. You're heavily injured, yet you still want to hide here. This means that this place is very important to you. You hid your treasures here, right?" Cui Siyin sneered.
Sheng An, who was in the container, suddenly became agitated, and panic appeared in his eyes.
"It seems that I guessed correctly. The treasures are here."
"If you dare take even a single silver coin from me, I'll kill you," Sheng An growled as he stared at Cui Siyin.
"I don't want your treasures. I only want one thing." Cui Siyin stared at Sheng An, "If you don't agree, then I'll take all of your treasures."
"What thing?" Sheng An looked at Cui Siyin angrily.
"The Caltrop Awl," Cui Siyin said.
"I don't have that thing," Sheng An denied without even thinking.
"Don't be in such a hurry to refuse. If you give me the Caltrop Awl, not only will I not touch your treasures, I'll even give you information about the treasure island. I've been to the treasure island before, so I know its location." Cui Siyin's words were extremely bewitching, "That place is filled with endless treasures. Don't you want any of them?"
Sheng An was silent for a moment, then said, "I really don't know what the Caltrop Awl is."
"Maybe you really don't know what the Caltrop Awl is. Maybe it's hidden in your treasures," Cui Siyin said. At the same time, Cui Siyin took out a drawing that she had just drawn, "This is the shape of the Caltrop Awl."
Sheng An narrowed his eyes. Originally, he really didn't know what the Caltrop Awl was.
However, after seeing the drawing of the Caltrop Awl, he immediately remembered.
The Caltrop Awl was indeed in his hands, but it wasn't piled up among his treasures.
The Dragon Clan had a habit of splitting their treasures in half.
This was to avoid any mishaps from happening, so that their treasures wouldn't be taken away at once.
Sheng An also had this habit.
"You don't have to deny it. This Caltrop Awl was obtained 200 years ago when you slaughtered a Native American tribe," Cui Siyin said.
"So what? Maybe I've already thrown it away. After all, I'm only interested in shiny and valuable things."
"You definitely still have it." Cui Siyin said with certainty, "The Caltrop Awl has some kind of mysterious power. You won't be mistaken. Even if you can't tell what the Caltrop Awl is for, you won't throw it away easily."
Just like how Sheng An understood Cui Siyin, Cui Siyin also understood Sheng An.
Sheng An finally laughed. He finally felt that he had the right to speak.
"What's the Caltrop Awl for?"
Sheng An was indeed as Cui Siyin had thought. Although he didn't know what the Caltrop Awl was for, he could still feel the power it contained, so he still kept it.
With his vision and experience, he had experienced this many times. Something that seemed useless at first would eventually be found to have great value or use.
Now that Cui Siyin was so eager to obtain the Caltrop Awl, it meant that the Caltrop Awl was indeed very useful or valuable.
Otherwise, Cui Siyin wouldn't be unmoved by the treasures she had hidden in the manor.
Cui Siyin was also a Dragon, and her greed for treasures was deeply imprinted in her blood. It was impossible for her not to be moved.
Unless her desire for the Caltrop Awl was greater than the treasures.
"That's my question. You just have to answer me. Do you accept this deal?" Cui Siyin said coldly.
"Before I figure out what the Caltrop Awl is for, I won't accept this deal."
