I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Chapter 709 Passionate but annoyed by ruthlessness

"Miss Lee"

Hearing Zhang San's shout, the ambiguous atmosphere in the tent disappeared instantly.

Tang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly:

"Mr. Wei should have something urgent, you should go quickly."

"Ok"

Li Zimu blushed and nodded: "Then I'll come to you later, I still have something to say to you."

"it is good"

Tang Chen was at a loss for a while, not knowing what Li Zimu wanted to say to him.

Fortunately, the latter turned around and walked out of the big tent quickly, which prevented him from showing his timidity again.

"."

Looking at the curtains that had been slowly lowered, Tang Chen felt excited and anxious at the moment. He stood up after sitting for a while, and sat down after standing for a while. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was restless.

As for Li Zimu outside the tent, she followed Zhang San quickly to the main tent where Wei Changtian was, while silently counting own breaths in her heart.

One, two, three, four, five.

Soon, the number in my heart came to "five".

The next moment, the blush on his face disappeared as quickly as the tide ebbed, and his eyes changed from shyness to indifference almost instantly.

If someone was seriously observing Li Zimu's expression at this time, he would be very surprised.

Because in this short breath, she seemed to have completely changed herself.

It was soft like a pool of spring water before.

It's as cold as a block of ice now.

"Miss Li, the young master is here."

In front of him, Zhang San suddenly stopped and turned around, with a pause in The next moment's tone.

He clearly sensed the change in Li Zimu, but he didn't ask any more questions, and just finished speaking.

"Young master is in the tent, you can go in directly."

"Yes, thank you Zhang Dage."

Although they are all members of the Wei family in name, Zhang San's status is undoubtedly higher than that of Li Zimu, so the latter has always called Zhang San by "Dage".

Li Zimu thanked him softly, then took a deep breath and opened the curtain, bowed his head to the man inside and saluted:

"My son."

"coming?"

Wei Changtian raised his head and winked at Zhang San.

The latter understood it, and immediately withdrew from the big tent and put down the curtain at the same time.

After Zhang San got out of the tent, Wei Changtian looked at Li Zimu again, and his expression became serious.

He didn't say anything nonsense, and asked directly:

"You should be able to contact Chu Xianping, right?"

"."

"Crackling."

The curtain swayed slightly, and the charcoal fire in the copper basin crackled.

There is a desk between Wei Changtian and Li Zimu, one is sitting and the other is standing.

One has a calm expression, and the other is slightly surprised.

But soon Li Zimu came back to his senses and replied truthfully:

"Yes, the servant girl and Mr. Chu have a pair of Mother-Child jade."

"He gave it to you?" Wei Changtian asked again.

"No, it was left to Young Master Chu by the servant girl."

"Where did the password come from?"

"Using Masonic codes."

"Did you send any letters during the few days he left?"

"Yes, every two days Young Master Chu will send a letter to the slaves to report their safety."

"Did you say anything else?"

"No."

"Then have you told him about the situation here?"

"Young Master Chu asked, and the slave girl said something."

"Ok"

Nodding his head, Wei Changtian fell into thinking after asking a series of questions.

As he guessed, Chu Xianping really learned about the movement of the army through Li Zimu.

Of course, these things are not secrets. Even if you don't go through Li Zimu, it's easy to find out through other means, but it will be slightly delayed.

As for whether Li Zimu will reveal any secrets.

That's nothing to worry about.

After all, Li Zimu didn't know any secrets other than those detailed work lists.

"Da da da! Da da da!"

The charcoal fire was booming, and there were frequent footsteps outside the tent, which should be soldiers on patrol.

Wei Changtian didn't speak for a long time, and Li Zimu naturally wouldn't disturb his thoughts, so he just stood there silently.

But although she didn't say a word, she was thinking quickly in her heart.

Why did the son suddenly ask this?

It shouldn't be considered a violation of the rules for him to keep Mother-Child jade with Young Master Chu.

So, did something happen to Mr. Chu?

Thinking of this, Li Zimu couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and a wave of worry rose in his heart.

She didn't quite understand why Wei Changtian suddenly sent Chu Xianping out to handle errands at such a critical moment. She sent a letter to ask Chu Xianping, but the latter didn't say anything.

Therefore, Li Zimu could only think that this matter should be very important, and Wei Changtian had no choice but to do so.

But now it seems that things are not as simple as I imagined.

"My son."

The worry about Chu Xianping in his heart became more and more intense. After almost a hundred breaths, Li Zimu couldn't bear it anymore, and finally asked softly:

"what happens?"

"."

Looking up at Li Zimu with a tense face, Wei Changtian didn't answer directly, but stood up blankly and walked in front of her.

"What I'm going to say next is top secret, and very few people know about it."

"It may surprise you, or even disbelieve it."

"But since I choose to tell you, I hope you can keep your mouth shut."

"Do you understand?"

"."

With a tremor of his shoulders, Li Zimu's worry instantly reached its peak.

She nodded subconsciously, and began to guess in her heart what happened to Chu Xianping that made Wei Changtian so serious.

Is someone trying to harm Mr. Chu?

Or did Mr. Chu encounter some accident on the way to find the sword?

All kinds of bad conjectures filled his mind, which made Li Zimu's breathing more and more short.

However, at the next moment, she only felt that her own breathing and heartbeat stopped suddenly.

Because Li Zimu never thought that he would hear such a sentence

"Chu Xianping, he may have betrayed the enemy."

Three hours later, Haishi.

The night was already deep, and the company battalion that stretched for several miles became quiet, only the footsteps of patrol soldiers echoed under the night.

Tomorrow morning, the army will break out of camp and continue westward, cross the Mang River, cross the Gobi in the West Desert, and rush to Huailing City before resting again.

So everyone went to bed early tonight to recharge their batteries for the next few days of marching.

However, there are also many people who have not slept, or have trouble falling asleep.

Just like Tang Chen.

"."

Hesitating outside a certain tent, he looked at the light in the gap of the curtain, and his expression should be more tangled at this moment.

Before Li Zimu went to look for Wei Changtian, he said that he would come to him later, and he had something to say to him.

So Tang Chen waited nervously and anxiously, and even thought about what he should say in advance when facing various situations.

However, he has not waited for Li Zimu until now.

Tang Chen was worried, so he ran to Li Zimu's tent, only to find that there was light in the tent.

This undoubtedly shows that Li Zimu is in the tent at this time.

So. did you forget?

Apart from this explanation, Tang Chen couldn't think of any other possibility, so his eyes gradually became lonely.

He wanted to go in and ask Li Zimu, but he didn't have the courage, so he turned around silently and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, a corner of the curtain behind him was slowly opened.

"Miss Lee"

Hearing the movement, Tang Chen turned around abruptly, the depression just now disappeared in an instant, and he opened his mouth to say something.

However, before he could speak, Li Zimu's cold voice sounded first.

"Mr. Tang, I have very important things to do tonight. We will talk about the matter between us later."

"Please go back, I won't send it away."

"Feel sorry."
