The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 760: Chapter 760 Shu Yu Left Chapter 760: Chapter 760 Shu Yu Left Leaving the exile area and restoring a good record was key for Lu Shuyu at the moment.

Cheng Dong felt that Lu Shuyu was smart and would definitely not want to miss this opportunity.

As expected, Shu Yu took a deep breath, hesitantly received the letter with a nervous hand, and asked uncertainly, “As long as I deliver this letter to Tai Mansion, I can leave this place?”

“Of course.”

Shu Yu seemed to have made a big decision and nodded, “Alright, I will deliver it.”

“There’s more.” Cheng Dong continued, “I know you are acquainted with the Huifeng Escort Agency. After you return, find out if any escorts are planning to leave the city. I want you to smuggle me into their shipment and leave Linzhang Prefecture. Lady Lu, you are smart, and I believe you can manage that.”

“Leaving Linzhang Prefecture, where will you go?”

“You don’t need to know that. Lord Cheng has given me a secret mission, and you don’t need to ask more.”

Shu Yu silently scoffed to herself, thinking, good fellow, so you know how to split up leaving the city.

So either you or the letter will make it out, always ensuring that the message reaches who it needs to, right?

But after hesitating for a moment, she agreed, “This is a bit difficult, I need to plan carefully.”

She then confirmed again, “If I succeed, I can definitely leave Righteous Dao Village, right?”

“Correct.” Cheng Dong nodded affirmatively, indeed she could leave, but whether she left as a living person or a dead one was another matter.

Whichever Lu family member delivered it, once the letter reached Tai Mansion and was handed over, the Lu family was not to stay.

Shu Yu, having received his assurance, safely tucked the letter away, a hopeful glimmer in her eyes.

“Should I go now? Are you sure your injuries are alright?”

“You should go now, the sooner the better.” After Cheng Dong explained the specifics of delivering the letter, he urged Shu Yu to leave.

Shu Yu had no objections, “Alright, I will leave immediately. You rest well, and if anything comes up, just contact Madam Hou.”

“Thank you.”

Shu Yu left and went to the backyard to lead the mule carriage out.

Once Cheng Dong recovered a bit of his strength, he quietly followed her, watching her say goodbye to Madam Hou and then depart.

Watching the mule carriage moving farther away, Cheng Dong then returned to the house.

However, he didn’t go inside but instead found a corner in the neighboring woodshed to sit, his gaze fixated through the window on the outside.

Soon, Madam Hou came carrying a tray.

She then knocked on the door of the room where Cheng Dong previously stayed. With no response from the inside, Madam Hou knocked for a long time before whispering softly, “Sir? Sir, are you there? Yu asked me to prepare some food for you before she left, I’ve brought it over. Sir? Why is there no response, did you faint?”

Madam Hou knocked on the door nervously again, and then worriedly pushed it open.

There was no one inside; she set the tray on the table and searched both inside and out.

After not seeing anyone, a hint of panic crossed her face as she stood in the doorway looking around, “How can someone just disappear? How am I going to explain this to Yu?”

Then she ran out to look for her daughter, secretly beginning her search for the missing person.

After Madam Hou left, Cheng Dong emerged from the woodshed.

He returned to his room, looked at the bowl of noodles on the table, sniffed it, and tested for any poison before sitting down carefully and quietly started to eat with chopsticks.
