Ji Ming scratched his head, but in the end, he didn't dare to look at the pitiful gaze of the Li family's little sister, and agreed, "Okay, okay, can you change its name?"
"Of course, whatever you like, sir."
"Then we'll call it Tiger from now on."
Li's younger sister's expression froze instantly, and she pleaded, "White sugar..."
He took the puppy from Ji Ming, and it barked at him a few times before falling silent, seemingly unwilling to accept the name "Tiger".
Okay, it's just buying more dog food.
"Young Miss? The groom is here, where are you?"
Calls came from outside the back courtyard. Ke Qing and Li's younger sister panicked at the same time. The latter subconsciously let go of Ji Ming's hand, while the former grabbed Ji Ming's wrist again and dragged him towards the back courtyard room.
This doesn't make sense. He didn't do anything, so why do these two look like they've done something wrong?
Chapter 27 The Purple Cat Head Crouching in Defense
"Shh! Don't speak later, or I won't be able to hold my head up in my husband's family!"
Ke Qing looked panicked, kicked Ji Ming who she had stuffed under the desk, and then winked at her younger sister who was sitting on the bed holding a red veil.
Damn it, Ji Ming didn't do anything, and now they're forcing him under the desk. If they find out, he'll be in deep trouble.
Already annoyed, Ke Qing, that silly girl, kicked him. Ji Ming wasn't the kind of gentleman who would yield to a lady, so he immediately grabbed her relaxed thigh and gave her calf a hard rub.
Regardless of whether he'd back down or not, who told him that silly girl would kick him?
The purple cat's face instantly turned red, and its two legs kicked at Ji Ming under the table like a storm, cursing, "Shameless, you lecher!"
Ji Ming felt a surge of heat rising in his lower abdomen. If it weren't for this silly girl, he would have already gone to the granary to search for intelligence, instead of hiding under the desk and getting kicked.
A true man is born between heaven and earth to stand tall and upright; how can he be trampled on by jade feet?
Ji Ming hurriedly activated his breathing technique, not forgetting to add a sarcastic remark: "Purple cat head, I thought you liked wearing purple clothes, but I didn't expect you to have a pink girlish heart too?"
Ke Qing, her face flushed, was dumbfounded. After a moment, she covered her dress and kicked even harder. The power of the possessor of the Eye of God was indeed great, and she almost broke Ji Ming's power by kicking him.
If Ji Ming hadn't been diligently cultivating during this time, he probably would have been kicked and coughed up blood by now.
Li's younger sister covered her mouth and chuckled. Although her sister Keqing and Mr. Kindness did not get along well at the moment, she envied their way of getting along.
After putting the red veil back on, the younger sister of the Li family whispered a reminder: "Sister Keqing, Uncle Shen and the others are coming."
Ke Qing stopped kicking. Her face was still flushed from being touched several times by that lecherous man. She nodded and replied, "I understand. Did that lecherous man down there hear me?"
"I am not a lecher."
Ke Qing ignored him and pretended to read a book while chatting with the younger sister of the Li family. Before long, the Li family's servant knocked on the door.
Having no interest in listening to the Li family's affairs, Ji Ming subconsciously began to observe the environment under the desk. Unfortunately, Ke Qing had learned her lesson and covered her clothes tightly, so he couldn't catch a glimpse of her beauty.
Ji Ming noticed the small box under the desk, carefully examined the keyhole, then pulled out a machete from his belt, inserted the tip of the knife into the keyhole, and began to slowly turn it until a click of the lock was heard.
A thief never leaves empty-handed; one must be a dedicated petty thief.
Keqing, who was talking to the maid, narrowed her eyes. If she heard correctly, had some lecherous man under the desk opened the box she had used when she was a child?
Ke Qing gritted her teeth, took off her high heels, and kicked several times before Ji Ming grabbed her without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, Ji Ming did not make any improper moves on her feet. Instead, he gently put them down, glanced into the box a few times, reached into the dark, took something, put it into the sewn bag inside his clothes, and then closed it.
Anyway, I'll be cleaning up Keqing's house later, so what's wrong with getting paid in advance?
After waiting a while longer, and once the younger sister of the Li family had dealt with the servants, Ji Ming finally crawled out from under the desk and said irritably, "Kick, kick, kick! Do you really enjoy kicking me without shoes?"
"Don't talk to me, you lecher."
"So where is the granary? Take me there quickly, so we can get this over with and go home sooner."
Ke Qing kept a straight face, but couldn't hide the blush on her cheeks. After secretly observing Ji Ming's expression, she finally obediently went out to lead the way.
Ji Ming nodded to Li's younger sister, then followed Ke Qing out of the side room and back to the back courtyard.
"Can you dive? Dive in underwater, then leave through another door."
"No, could you demonstrate it for me personally?"
Ji Ming glanced at the purple cat-headed girl in the dress and revealed a malicious smile.
Ke Qing glared at her: "No!"
"What a pity, how can I learn to dive if you don't demonstrate?"
Completely exhausted, Ke Qing took out a hairpin from her sleeve and threw it behind Ji Ming. After a flash of lightning, she instantly appeared there, aimed at his buttocks, and kicked him directly into the pool.
Before Ji Ming could react, he floated on the surface of the pool using his skills, glaring with dead fish eyes and saying, "So what if you have the Eye of God? If you're so capable, don't use it. Let me get ashore and give you a good test!"
"Dream on! I'll never give you a chance to get close to me again, you lecher!"
Ke Qing stood by the bridge with her arms crossed. Because of that kick, she felt great all over, and a smile appeared on her rosy cheeks. She just hoped she could kick a few more times in the future.
Ji Ming looked up and suddenly grinned, "From this angle, you can see Lord Yuheng's pink girlish heart."
Before Ke Qing could react, Ji Ming flipped over and dived into the water. He could vaguely hear Yu Hengxing's angry and ashamed curses from the bridge, so he continued to dive down with satisfaction.
Therefore, the Li family's granary is located in this pond. The pond is not large, and if you search carefully, you should be able to find the entrance quickly.
As he slowly swam down, Ji Ming would turn over all the stones in each area he swam through, eventually finding a tightly closed valve at the bottom of the rocky hill.
Turning the valve counterclockwise, the door only allowed one person to pass through. Ji Ming swam in and closed the valve. The entire space remained filled with pool water. This was a standard pressure relief and filtration room, a mechanism found in the hideouts of many treasure-hunting groups.
Turning his gaze to the second valve, Ji Ming tried to turn it but couldn't. Instead, he had to press it to open it. There wasn't much water in the entire space, and it flowed away through the gap the moment the door opened.
After walking through the narrow corridor, a few minutes later the view suddenly opened up, and Ji Ming stood there dumbfounded. He swore he had never seen so many Mora in his life.
The Mora was neatly stacked, and the air was thick with the stench of decaying money. Everywhere you looked, there was a dazzling golden light, and you could easily be seduced by the scene.
Few people would refuse so much Mora, and if Ji Ming hadn't held firm to his principles, he might have succumbed to it as well.
Forget it, not all the Li family members are bad people. For the sake of the younger sister of the Li family, Ji Ming gave up the idea of stealing some things.
So, where is the intelligence?
Silently practicing his breathing techniques, Ji Ming kept his eyes straight ahead and began to observe every corner of the room. Soon he found a row of floor shelves specifically for storing boxes.
Wow, the Li family is so thoughtful! They even put names on the boxes. It turns out that each box represents the details of a gang member, and the names of the three gang leaders are marked in vermilion.
Ji Ming, without any hesitation, used his still-wet machete to break open each document and take away all the files marked with water magic talismans. These were all intelligence on other gangs. Once this intelligence was cleared up, the gangs under the Li family would naturally be no threat.
Helping a certain Yuheng Star clean house requires a reward that can't be settled with just a dog. Ji Ming just took something from Keqing's box, which can barely be considered a reward.
However, Ji Ming hadn't had a chance to examine it closely yet, and he hadn't been able to feel it with his hands earlier. He could only sense the smooth feel of silk fabric. He wanted to take this opportunity to examine it properly.
Pulling it out of the damp sewn bag, this time Ji Ming was dumbfounded. Wasn't this the little girl's red cloth flower shoes? How could Ke Qing keep something from her childhood?
As a member of the Jade Balance Star, shouldn't there at least be some silver notes and Mora in the box? Ji Ming had just thought he had found a money pouch or some fine silk, but now he's been excited for nothing.
What's the use of just one shoe? You should at least have a pair, right?
Never mind, a thief can't leave empty-handed. I'll put it by my bedside to ward off evil when I get home. Anyway, since a certain Jade Balance Star is casting an evil spell, most ghosts and monsters probably won't dare to approach.
After putting away the red cloth shoes and intelligence, Ji Ming chose to leave the granary through another door.
………………
Inside the room, Li's younger sister heard the hurried sound of the door opening and footsteps. She lifted her veil and peeked out, only to find her older sister Keqing looking anxious. She was taken aback.
"Sister Keqing, where is Mr. Kindness?"
"Never mind him for now, I need to check if anything is missing from the box."
Ke Qing crouched down and dragged out the box. The moment she opened it, she was stunned and exclaimed in panic, "My red cloth shoes... You lecher! You big liar! You gangster!"
"Sister Keqing, gang members aren't an insult, okay?" The younger sister of the Li family looked from afar and smiled, "I remember Sister Keqing's red cloth flower shoes, you even said they were a token of love for your future husband."
Ke Qing blushed deeply: "That was just something I said when I was a kid and didn't know any better."
"Then why did Sister Keqing look so ashamed and indignant when the kind gentleman took the red cloth shoes?"
There were clearly various exquisite hairpins and ornaments in the box, so why did the kind-hearted gentleman (that lecher) insist on taking the red cloth flower shoes?
At this moment, only a final trace of doubt remained in the hearts of Li's younger sister and Ke Qing.
The younger sister of the Li family became happier and happier as she thought about it, while Ke Qing became increasingly ashamed and indignant. The two of them began to wildly imagine things.
Could that lecherous man actually like her? No, no, he clearly shows through his actions that he hates her, and he's always so rude with his words. He's never even tried to leave a good impression on her.
But why did that guy specifically choose red cloth shoes? No, no, even if that guy is serious, Ke Qing will never like him. At the very least, that guy has to turn over a new leaf and apologize to her properly.
So why did you have to pick those red cloth shoes? Waaaaah...
The purple cat head, feeling both utterly ashamed and indignant, began to crouch and defend itself, covering its head.
Chapter 28 Smoking a Pipe is Harmful to Health
After stealing gang intelligence from the Li family, Ji Ming did not continue to attend the wedding banquet. He stayed at home for several days to concentrate on studying the intelligence until he could recite it from memory.
Could this be considered a kind of retreat? Anyway, since Senior Sister Gan Yu has been busy with work lately and can't supervise his cultivation, Ji Ming has been deceiving himself, pretending that he has already cultivated.
"Wang Wang Wang!"
"Shut up, sugar!"
