Chapter 114: What I wished for came true.

Su Huaiqi, who went with Xi Ming, was a little dumbfounded when he first saw Weiyu Tower.

Weiyulou, shouldn't there be a building? It looks similar to the Five Mountains Alliance, mainly in the style of a courtyard house.

After following Xi Ming into Weiyu Tower, Su Huaiqi's gaze shifted from the building to the female disciples of Weiyu Tower.

After all, she had heard before coming that Weiyu Tower used its beautiful female disciples to "form cliques." She also wanted to see just how beautiful these female disciples really were.

She doesn't seem... very beautiful.

Su Huaiqi, feeling utterly dejected, silently withdrew his gaze. He had encountered two female disciples along the way, but these two disciples were incomparable to the girls in the girls' academy.

You can't blame her for that; she set her standards too high at the beginning, which makes it impossible for her to find anything decent now.

Since entering Weiyu Tower, Su Huaiqi did not immediately begin investigating. Because Xi Ming had secretly told her that they were being monitored, Su Huaiqi did nothing and quietly stayed in the guest room for two days, her furthest activity being the courtyard of the guest room.

Although Su Huaiqi's body did not leave the courtyard, it did not prevent her from having a silver tongue. In just two days, she had become on good terms with the two female disciples who were assigned to take care of her, and even went with them to see Xi Zhenzhen's residence.

Su Huaiqi seized the opportunity and found an excuse to send the two female disciples away. He quickly searched Xi Zhenzhen's room, but found nothing.

Could it be that Xi Zhenzhen has already discovered the folding screen painting, and therefore did not put it in the room, but instead hid it somewhere else?

As Su Huaiqi was lost in thought, the two female disciples who had been sent away returned.

Seeing Su Huaiqi standing silently in the center of the room, the two assumed she was overcome with grief and quickly came over to comfort her gently, saying, "Miss Xi, don't worry. Zhenzhen is skilled in martial arts and will definitely be alright."

"Yes, and with Zhiye by her side, Zhiye will definitely not let Zhenzhen get hurt."

Seeing this, Su Huaiqi quickly pinched her thigh hard, forcing out a few tears. With teary eyes, she raised her head and said softly, "Then I'll take your kind words, sisters. I lost my father and mother at a young age, and my uncle took me in. I grew up with Zhenzhen. After Zhenzhen got married, I haven't seen her for a long time. Now that I'm engaged, I wanted to share this happy occasion with Zhenzhen, but who knew that she would be away?"

"Don't worry, Zhenzhen is having a great time in the building. Zhiye dotes on her a lot, which makes us very envious." One of them helped Su Huaiqi up and led her away from Xi Zhenzhen's residence while speaking.

Hearing the female disciple's comforting words, Su Huaiqi smiled and said, "I'm relieved to hear that Zhenzhen is doing well."

After leaving Xi Zhenzhen's room, Su Huaiqi, under the guise of chatting, learned a series of things about Xi Zhenzhen from the two female disciples. Among them, Xi Zhenzhen's habit of going to the viewing platform of Yunlou to enjoy the scenery caught Su Huaiqi's attention.

Upon learning this news, Su Huaiqi immediately sought out Xi Ming to discuss it, and the two decided to find time to visit the viewing platform again.

The next day, Xi Ming took the initiative to find Yun Hailong to discuss business, while Su Huaiqi began to deceive the two female disciples, taking them on a tour of Weiyu Tower.

"My dear sisters, I will be leaving Weiyu Tower in a few days. Would you be so kind as to show me around today?" Su Huaiqi asked with a sweet smile.

“Of course…” One of the more outgoing female disciples was about to agree on the spot, but was interrupted by another who tugged at her sleeve.

Su Huaiqi noticed the hesitation of the two female disciples, blinked, looked at them pitifully, and gave a wry smile. "Yuan'er understands the difficulties of the two sisters. Then we won't go sightseeing. We can chat in the courtyard."

Seeing Su Huaiqi's concession, the cheerful female disciple's heart softened. She took Su Huaiqi's hand and said, "It's inconvenient to go to other places, so why don't we take you to the viewing platform? That's also Zhenzhen's favorite place."

Just when you're feeling sleepy, someone hands you a pillow; it's like your wish has come true.

Su Huaiqi suppressed her excitement, nodded, and said with gratitude, "Thank you both, sisters. I'm so happy."

Listening to his own soft and weak voice, Su Huaiqi was truly glad that he was the only one who came to the Five Mountains Alliance. If Ayan and the others had heard him, who knows what kind of trouble they would have caused.

Su Huaiqi followed behind the two female disciples, winding along the path until they arrived at a building.

Sure enough, Weiyu Tower still has a building.

Su Huaiqi looked at the towering building that had sprung up in front of him, nearly six stories high, with three large characters written on the plaque in a flamboyant style: Weiyu Tower.

It must be said that this Weiyu Building is somewhat out of place with the surrounding buildings.

Many guards stood in front of Weiyu Tower. Just as Su Huaiqi was wondering how the two female disciples would lead her through the layers of guards, the two female disciples actually walked past the entrance and headed to the right of the gate.

After walking a short distance along the right side, a wooden staircase appeared before Su Huaiqi.

"Miss Xi, this way please." One of the disciples politely led Su Huaiqi up the stairs.

Su Huaiqi took a silent breath, lifted her skirt with one hand, and followed the female disciple up the stairs.

The observation deck is on the top floor, and there were no elevators in ancient times. What other way is there to get up there besides climbing the stairs? Su Huaiqi muttered to himself as he climbed. Why does Xi Zhenzhen have to climb the stairs to the observation deck every day?

Fortunately, after this period of training, Su Huaiqi's body is no longer as weak as before, and she can now climb six floors in one go without any problem.

However, considering the gentle character she was portraying, Su Huaiqi took a short break halfway up the mountain before finally reaching the top floor, panting heavily.

One of the female disciples, seeing Su Huaiqi's slightly out of breath, asked with a smile, "Miss Xi, are you alright?"

Su Huaiqi nodded, "Don't worry, sister, it's alright."

Another female disciple covered her mouth and teased, "Zhenzhen's lightness skill is amazing; she always flies straight up. Why didn't Miss Xi learn martial arts?"

Su Huaiqi almost rolled his eyes, but still spoke nonsense with a straight face: "I have been weak since I was a child. My uncle took pity on me and did not let me learn martial arts. Zhenzhen has been lively and active since she was a child, just like a mischievous monkey. My uncle was afraid that she would cause trouble, so he had to supervise her to study and practice hard every day."

The two female disciples were also surprised to find that Xi Zhenzhen looked like this when she was young. They almost burst out laughing after hearing Su Huaiqi's explanation.

The entire right half of the sixth floor is an observation deck, but apart from the railings and pillars, there are no other items on the observation deck, so there is no way to hide anything.

The two female disciples were already accustomed to the view from the observation deck, chatting as they stood, occasionally glancing at Su Huaiqi's movements. Su Huaiqi strolled leisurely across the observation deck, seemingly captivated by every view. However, her attention was actually focused on the building beneath her feet.

She was quite curious about what this building was for.

Slowly approaching the center from the outer perimeter, Su Huaiqi saw a doorway in the middle. He gritted his teeth and walked straight into the doorway, heading towards another part of the sixth floor.

The first thing you see is a long corridor, lined with lanterns of various shapes and sizes, and with all sorts of green plants hanging from the ceiling.

Su Huaiqi walked quickly forward, and just as she turned the corner, she suddenly heard voices. She paused, stood still, and held her breath. The voices from around the corner reached Su Huaiqi's ears clearly.

"Hahaha, that old man Xi Ming is really funny. He even wants to give the landlord business in exchange for the landlord's preferential treatment of his daughter."

"Yes, he probably never imagined that his beloved daughter would be locked up in the building by the landlord."

"It's because Xi Ming has the Donghuaxi that the landlord wants. If you ask me, Xi Zhenzhen's arrest was really because of her father."

Although he only overheard a few simple words, the content of the conversation shocked Su Huaiqi. It turned out that Xi Zhenzhen had actually been captured by the owner of Weiyu Tower.

Su Huaiqi didn't have time to think it through, and worried that the two female disciples outside would come in looking for her, so she gritted her teeth and turned around to walk back the way she came.

Fortunately, she returned quickly and bumped into one of the female disciples after walking only a short distance.

"Why did Miss Xi come in?"

"Excuse me, sister. I was so engrossed in what I was looking at that I didn't realize I had walked in. I'm sorry to have troubled you to come and find me," Su Huaiqi apologized in a low voice, while keeping an eye on the situation behind her.

"It's alright, it's alright. It's windy here, and Miss Xi is not well. Let's leave as soon as possible."

Su Huaiqi nodded and followed the female disciple away from the viewing platform. Su Huaiqi only breathed a slight sigh of relief when the three returned to the courtyard of their guest room.

But Xi Ming had not yet returned, and Su Huaiqi dared not show too much anxiety, so she sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, tightly clutching the handkerchief in her hand, and glancing at the door from time to time.

Finally, after countless calls from his heart, Xi Ming returned.

Su Huaiqi took the initiative to greet Xi Ming, her words tinged with excitement.

"Uncle, guess where I just went?"

"Oh? It seems you've gone to a good place." Xi Ming sat kindly on the other side of the stone table.

Su Huaiqi stood up, picked up the teapot on the table, and under the cover of pouring tea, stood next to Xi Ming and quickly whispered, "Uncle Xi, I just overheard that Zhenzhen was locked up in Weiyu Tower."

Upon hearing this, Xi Ming looked up at Su Huaiqi with some surprise, then coughed lightly to indicate that he understood.

After pouring the water, Su Huaiqi sat back down and said with a slight smile, "Today, my two older sisters took me to the observation deck. The view from the observation deck was beautiful."

Xi Ming nodded, then reminded him with a hint of worry, "The scenery at Weiyu Tower is always the best. You've been out all day, and you're not feeling well, so you should rest early. Tomorrow, A-Yang will come to pick you up and take you back to your residence. You two haven't seen each other for a while, so you should make sure you're well-rested and in good spirits when you meet again."

"Thank you for your concern, Uncle. I'm feeling a bit tired too, so I'll go and rest now." Su Huaiqi stood up, bowed, and headed towards her room.

Xi Ming was left alone at the stone table, "leisurely" sipping his tea.

Although he didn't show anything on the surface, his mind was in complete turmoil.

He never expected that it would be Wei Yu Lou who kidnapped Zhenzhen.

He had come to Weiyu Tower to gather information, but little did he know that the enemy was right in front of him.
