Fengjiu turned and left. Leng Shuang followed with the child in his arms. Leng Hua trailed half a step behind and said to Elder Mei, "There's food in the kitchen. If you're hungry, go take a look!" With that, he left as well.
Elder Mei watched them leave. He rubbed his bald head, then looked down at himself. He casually cast a Dust Cleansing Spell, and he looked like a brand new person from head to toe.
He stroked his beard and smiled, then walked out. He was going to the kitchen to see if there was anything he could fill his stomach with.
For someone of his cultivation level, it didn't matter if he ate or not. He didn't know how many years he had been fasting. For cultivators, eating was just to satisfy their hunger. Of course, if it was spirit rice or beast meat, it was a different story.
However, when he thought of what Fengjiu had said to him, he couldn't help but wonder: Did she see through me? That's why she dared to entrust me with such a task.
On the other side, Fengjiu returned to the courtyard. Leng Shuang and Leng Hua also came. When they entered the room, they looked at each other and asked, "Master, do you know where Elder Mei came from?"
Fengjiu sat down in the room and poured himself a cup of water. He smiled and said, "I don't know where he came from, but I think I can vaguely guess why he came here."
"He seems to treat the little master differently." Leng Hua thought for a moment and decided to share his observations.
"Yes, because he came for little Hao 'er." Fengjiu played with the teacup as he spoke. "If I'm not wrong, he should know about little Hao 'er's background. He came here for little Hao' er."
"Master, don't you need to guard against him? He's so strong. What if he takes the little master away? "Leng Shuang couldn't help but ask worriedly.
Fengjiu chuckled and shook his head. "He won't. Judging from little Hao 'er's situation, his parents aren't doing too well either. Compared to bringing little Hao' er back and enduring the danger, it's better for him to stay here and protect him."
"Don't worry! He won't take little Hao 'er away, at least not now. Plus, he's very strong. With him here, even if I go out, I don't have to worry about the mansion. When I'm not in the mansion, you don't have to stop him from interacting with little Hao' er. If he wants to carry little Hao 'er, let him do it. Let him teach him. This will only benefit Hao' er. "
Hearing this, the two nodded. "Yes."
Although he agreed, Leng Hua was still somewhat worried. He asked, "Master, Elder Mei hasn't admitted it. If he didn't come for the young master and has an ulterior motive, then …"
"I know what you're worried about." Fengjiu chuckled, glanced at the two, and said with a smile, "But you don't know, I had the Fire Phoenix keep an eye on Leng Shuang's courtyard. Although Elder Mei didn't show much during the day, and he didn't do anything out of line after entering the manor, one night, he secretly snuck into Leng Shuang's courtyard to see Hao 'er."
Hearing this, Leng Shuang was slightly surprised. Elder Mei had snuck into her courtyard? She didn't even know about it.
"Master, Leng Shuang was careless." She felt somewhat guilty. If something had happened, it would have been too late.
