Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Chapter 557: A Deal 5

Qi Qingyao snuck out and went back to the household openly. Because the people from the Ghost Organization had torn off her human mask, she did not bother to put it back on, instead stuffing the mask in her arms. She walked to the gate silently and startled the guard. He did not even realize she had gone out.

Qi Qingyao was lost in thought and was planning to go back to the courtyard to properly think about what happened today when she saw Li Ruoxuan standing at the entrance to the courtyard, looking as if he had been waiting for a long time. Sh*t, did he know that she snuck out?

Qi Qingyao quickly explained, “I know you’re gonna say some crap about why I snuck out, but I…”

Li Ruoxuan did not waste time questioning why she snuck out, and said seriously, “I received intel.”

“Oh?”

Qi Qingyao was intrigued.

She followed Li Ruoxuan back to the parlor in the front yard. As soon as they sat down, Zhu Shen asked someone to serve the tea. Soon, the two of them were left alone in the parlor.

Li Ruoxuan’s expression was extremely serious.

“The information is said to have come from the imperial palace of Southern Ming. I’m afraid the Zhaixing Administration of the Ghost Organization has already gotten hold of the information that identifies you as the Harbinger.”

Qi Qingyao did not fully grasp the situation. “What is the Harbinger?”

Li Ruoxuan explained, “It is rumored that the Harbinger has the gift, or talent, to allow a grand master to ascend to a higher level. They have the power to allow a grand master to comprehend or understand things faster. All in all, I don’t quite know how to describe it either.”

The imperial palace of Daming must have obtained the information from Gongsun She, then purposely released this information.

It was not so much spreading the information as it was an attempt to borrow the hands of the little empress and the Ghost Organization, then let both parties test whether Qi Qingyao really was the Harbinger.

Qi Qingyao asked in confusion, “Does the Harbinger also have the ability to ascend a rank-nine to a grand master?”

Li Ruoxuan said, “I don’t know. Because I’ve never seen the Harbinger.”

Li Ruoxuan said something that was very much against his conviction.

In her drunken state, Qi Qingyao had revealed that she was someone who transmigrated, that she was not from Northern Liang, and she traveled here through time and space…

At that time, Li Ruoxuan was already pretty sure that she might be the Harbinger.

Qi Qingyao thought for a long time. She stroked her chin and said, “No wonder Gongsun She said that I’m the fated person back then. Does this fated person refer to the Harbinger?”

“Perhaps.”

After Li Ruoxuan answered her question slowly, he added,

“If the Ghost Organization knows that you’re the Harbinger, they will never let you marry into the Lu family.

“No, if the little empress knows that you’re the Harbinger, she won’t let you marry into the Lu family either.

“Your wish to become the young mistress of a rich family might fall through.”

“Really?” Qi Qingyao frowned and murmured lightly.

Li Ruoxuan changed the topic and said, “What did you gain from going out today?”

“I didn’t get to finish my meal and encountered two little incidents.” Qi Qingyao did not say anything about being taken away by the Ghost Organization. As for the incident with Wen Chuji, that was nothing but a small farce.

She also changed the topic and said, “Does your ascension to grand mastership have anything to do with me?”

Li Ruoxuan pondered for a moment, then said truthfully, “I was standing by Qingyang Lake one rainy night and was looking at the lake when I ascended. Zhu Shen was next to me at the time.”

Then it had nothing to do with her. “Then how does one determine that I’m the Harbinger? I didn’t help anyone ascend. Look at Gongsun She, he didn’t suddenly perceive a stronger level.” If the news came from Daming, it meant that it was the information that Gongsun She passed to the emperor of Daming after he went back. Then the emperor of Daming purposely spread this information out again… F*ck, did this not suddenly throw her into the eye of the storm? If she went out after this, she would surely be watched by various powerhouses. One misstep and she would be killed.

Gongsun She, that old bastard!

Qi Qingyao’s expression turned gloomy and devastated in an instant.
