Quietly, Chu Yun went back the way he came. Soon, he arrived at the house where he was staying. He carefully noticed that there were indeed many people's auras around him. It seemed that Hua Qianqian must have set it up just now. However, all of this did not matter. Chu Yun easily returned to his room without being discovered by these people.

After returning to her room and closing the door, Hua Jieyu got out of bed and asked Chu Yun,""Zong Bao, what's the situation? I just felt the presence of many more people in the surroundings. They seem to be here to monitor us.”

Chu Yun sighed and said," Yes, we have been suspected, but we are fine for the time being. You don't have to worry too much. However, I overheard the conversation between Hua Tian and his daughter just now. It turns out that the mastermind behind these bandits is Pan Renmei. No wonder the imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress them many times. Not only did they return empty-handed, but they also suffered heavy losses!"”

"What? Pan Renmei is manipulating these bandits behind the scenes? He is simply too lawless. I must report this to the emperor and let him punish Pan Renmei for her crimes.”Hua Jieyu said indignantly. The Yang family and the Pan family already had a grudge against each other. Now that she had evidence of Pan Renmei's crime, she couldn't wait to report this matter to the Emperor!

"Auntie, let's not rush this matter. Besides, we don't have any evidence to prove that Pan Renmei colluded with the rebels. If we act rashly, I'm afraid he will bite us back and accuse us of falsely accusing a loyal minister!”Chu Yun quickly stopped Hua Jieyu.

"That's true. Then Zong Bao, what do you think we should do?”Hua Jieyu thought about it and felt that Chu Yun was right, so she nodded and asked. After spending time with Chu Yun these past few days, she had unknowingly regarded Chu Yun as her strong backing.

"I don't have any good ideas for the time being, but the most important thing now is to eliminate these bandits. It would be even better if we can make them surrender.”Chu Yun continued.

"Yeah!" Hua Jieyu nodded.

Chu Yun continued," Hua Tian found out when I was eavesdropping. However, he didn't reveal my identity. Instead, he wanted to make a deal with me. It turns out that Hua Tian already had the intention to surrender. Unfortunately, his wife is in Pan Renmei's hands. So, he told me that as long as we can help him save his wife, not only is he willing to surrender, but he can also help us testify against Pan Renmei."”Then, he told Hua Jieyu the plan that Hua Tian had told him.

Hearing Chu Yun's words, Hua Jieyu thought for a moment and said,""If what Hua Tian said is true, then we can indeed subdue these bandits without any effort. However, if what he said is false, then Zong Bao, aren't you just a sheep entering the tiger's den?”

"Yeah! That's why I didn't answer him on the spot, but came back to discuss with you.”Chu Yun continued.

"This…I can't judge it, but I guess it's most likely true that Hua Tian dared to use himself as a hostage. However, I'm still a little worried about letting you take the risk alone!”Hua Jieyu said after some thought.

Chu Yun also felt that what she said made sense, so he said,"Auntie, I've decided to agree to Hua Tian's plan. When the time comes, I'll leave a mark along the way. You can find me according to the mark I left. As long as we can save Hua Tian's wife, we can subdue these bandits without bloodshed!”

Seeing that Hua Jieyu still wanted to say something, Chu Yun quickly stopped her and said,""Auntie, don't worry. With my martial arts, even if I can't beat them, I can still save my life. Besides, those people definitely have a purpose for capturing me. They won't kill me, so don't worry!”

Hua Jieyu also felt that Chu Yun's words made sense. She had seen Chu Yun's marksmanship. Even if he couldn't beat her, he should still be able to escape."Alright then! Zong Bao, you must be careful. I will be here to watch over Hua Tian. If you do anything strange, I will not let him go.”

"Okay, I understand. I'll reply to Hua Tian tomorrow and agree to his plan.”Chu Yun nodded.

"Alright, then Zong Bao, you've had a long day, go and rest!”Hua Jieyu sat down as she spoke. She had no intention of resting.

"Then auntie, you must be tired after a day. Come to bed and rest!”After Chu Yun said this, he felt awkward. Yes, there was only one bed here. If he let her come up to rest, wouldn't she have to share the bed with him?

Hua Jieyu understood what he meant and her cheeks turned red. Fortunately, there was no light in the room, so Chu Yun did not see Hua Jieyu's shy expression. Otherwise, he would look like a pig again. However, she still calmed down and said,""No need. I've already rested before you came back. You've had a tiring day today. I still have something to do tomorrow!"

Chu Yun knew that Hua Jieyu was lying. She had jumped up from the bed the moment he entered the room. She was obviously not asleep. She was obviously saying this to give him the bed so that he could sit there for the whole night. He thought about how there were still a few hours before dawn. How could he let her tire herself out?"Since you're not going to rest, then I won't rest either.”

"You've been tired all day, and you still have something important to do tomorrow, how can you not rest? Zong Bao, listen to auntie, go rest!”Hua Jieyu said earnestly.

"Aunty, you've been tired all day!”Chu Yun shook his head and insisted on not resting.

Hua Jieyu had no choice but to say angrily,""Then what do you think we should do? There's only one bed here now. How can the two of us sleep?”

"We can sleep on the same bed!”Chu Yun blurted out without thinking. After he finished speaking, he regretted it and quickly apologized,"Auntie, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you.”

"Sigh, it's fine. Zong Bao, you should go rest first! The auntie would just sit here for a while.”Hua Jieyu sighed.

"How can that be! How about this, Auntie, you sleep on the bed and I sleep on the floor!”After saying that, he took the blanket and made a bed on the floor. Seeing this, Hua Jieyu could only shake her head helplessly and go to bed to rest.
